32:15 I didn't notice they changed this character, but you're 100% spot-on! That used to be Janine... but they changed it for the version you're currently playing. Seems DEl is even a thing in Pokemon Infinite Fusion... IoI

I only just discovered this channel after following your *incredible* work on SNES Library for years. Infinite Fusion is also one of the most fun games to watch due to seeing its potential to always be a unique experience. Regardless, your content is criminally underrated🔥

you sound like daithi de nogla

I love coming across channels with 20 views and seem to be stuck in 2012 style of videos

Nice video! Keep up the good work.

Just starting on this. Never played or watched it or any of it’s sequels, let’s see what’s up! Happy holidays! Looking forward to watching the yearly compilation as always.

Are you using save states?

My turn to help with the lore! At 39:22 you might have wondered what she said, as it is quite an unusual phrase. The attack here is called “Hermes Toris Megistos” which is spelled and read as “Hermes Tris Megistos”, simply meaning “Hermes Trice the Great”. This is how cultists of Hermes address him even to modern times. These cults typify and give the name to the model of a hermetic cult in the western speech, to hermeticism itself, and even anything hermetically sealed or closed off from air! It all comes from the belief that Hermes as the first student of magic that studied under a teacher (believed to be Apollo) came to the idea that anything that can help and heal can also harm and destroy, thus withdrew his invitation for students from public and created a secluded (now known as hermetic) cult. His staff the Caduceus is still the symbol of medicine to this day! Note the two opposing snakes twisting around the staff. Even to Romans he was known as Mercury, an element that stops aging to an extent when taken young, yet is still incredibly toxic to all regardless. Why does this alien Mother have this attack? Does it all mean something? I don’t know. Best I can do is to speculate that Mother is from Earth originally, while Filgaia is the alien of the two planets. This game has more such obscure mythic references, some that even link to another whole game series, so hold on for those! I will share more lore as they appear. Would love to hear your takes on the matter.

Loved both Snowboard Kids games just thought that there were too few tracks to explore the full potential of their possible variety, for example more long open fast tracks with minimum pickups as to emphasize speed is what I felt was needed. There are also other concepts, making 9 tracks per game feel like a tiny amount. Still great, especially due to atmosphere as you yourself said! Couple of reference lore questions if you don’t mind. Watched you play 3 golf games in a row with a character named Jim the Paladin, where’s he from? A couple of games back you called the strategy of going into your opponent’s attacks to prolong your own damage dealing string of moves a “Punch-Drunk Millionaire”. Where does the name come from? Wish you all the best as usual!

what a game this is! :D GG

I’m still half-way through watching your Wild Arms playthrough, but since you plan things pretty far ahead I thought it’d be better to post a few more of game suggestions just in case Silver doesn't work out, or you happen to like something else to play first. At the very least it gives the possibility of making a more long term playlist with some suggestions involved in it. I will post one suggestion per comment due to length, but I do have only a few key ones for now. Microsoft Pandora’s Box (1999) Puzzle Game of the Year Edition, a true artistic masterpiece of an art and puzzle game, only obscure because it was meant to promote system capabilities of Windows 95 machines, yet it came out so late. The dude who made Tetris was specifically hired to design this for Microsoft, the guy who makes music for Mortal Combat made the score for it! Both show in spades! The music is godly, and the whole game breathes out the atmosphere of human achievement on Earth during the brightest era of the outlook towards it. It is a glorious virtual museum of art, but also an insanely good game! Only puzzle game I know of that makes it mechanically impossible for anyone to get stuck, yet maintains a great difficulty! To play it I suggest a full complete playthrough of the story mode. IMPORTANT, this is by clearing all of each city’s locations by re-entering the city after beating its boss. Also, try to not use any hint or help points earned. It will be an easy game for you since you’ve beaten some much harder puzzles on your channel. I have beaten it in this way myself and consider it THE way to enjoy oneself most fully with the game. Game is free now as abandonware, and instructions are easy to find on running it on Windows 10 and 11 (run it in compatibility mode for XP and try to run it windowed for the aspect ratio). I look the most forward to your reactions to such a wonderful game, but also I’m curious as to the story mode, as my installation's codecs died just when I was playing it, thus I have not seen the end cinematic despite beating the game. I hope you’ll find it pleasing.

You’re making a custom trailer for each episode? That’s wild! What’s more, people might not know but that’s how real trailers looked like back then. I still have some on a Squaresoft demo disk. Yours are no lesser then what a major game used to get back then, except they’d get one and you’re making one for each segment! Aren't they seriously too much work? These are great!

Hey, this is a game I’m very familiar with, I beat it in a completionist manner back in the day. The reason the intro is so good (probably one of the top 10 of all time) is because it was made by Madhouse studio! As you said, goosebumps. Me, my mom, anyone I ever played that intro to says as much. Was a bit sick lately, and then much busy after that as a result (I hate that combo). I will however catch up with all the watching, I basically did already except for Wild Arms and some early stuff. Will get to it now. All the time while I was unable to comment I still wanted to apologise for jumping to conclusions about the Pokemon stuff. Naturally you had a plan while I thought initially that the next playthrough would be played at once and with little to no change... And then you explained it all away in the next episode and I felt pretty stupid for my speculations. Not that I wanted to bother you about it, but even so putting one’s nose in other people’s business never feels good, let alone when one is in the wrong! I already wrote to you about it then to say I was off the mark, but I have no idea if you saw that at all. Hope this message finds you. Do feel free to tell me off if I was, or am, being too chatty. I just want to try to be properly friendly with people I feel deserve it, but not at the cost of their leisure or comfort that is. Hope all’s well otherwise! Oh and I’d love to watch more Wild Arms games as you mentioned, especially Wild Arms 2, as I haven’t finished that one due to both my Sonys wearing out before I managed to do it.

I don’t want to bug you to do or not do something. I’m just shocked with the possibility, therefore asking the question to prepare myself mentally should the need arise. Not going into spoilers here, but by you saying “there will be another run”, I hope you don’t mean you will play the whole same game from the start again? I know that it would have a different pokemon team, but the prospect of playing or indeed watching a same Pokemon game twice is... Let’s put it this way, I don’t know about you but I’d rather hit myself with a hammer on my shin, twice, than put myself to such a spectacular form of mind-numbing torturous waste of time. I don’t wish to overstate it needlessly so let’s consider. There’s no new dialogue, no missed discoveries, no new gameplay to be had, just a slight reshuffle of moves, types, and the only new thing, the sprites. Now, Infinite Fusion IS a masterpiece when it comes to a Pokemon game, but like some other masterpieces, say Trails in the Sky, once you’ve played the whole game enough to see all the dialogue, there’s very little sanity in repeating it until at least some ten years have passed or so. I am saying this only because your great talent of making any game you play worth the entire watch, thus another game would be blessed with your time and our entertainment rather than a repeat. And I am saying it as someone who watched all of your Genjuu Ryodan episodes within a day or so of release, so I have experience with you making replays great. I just think that this is a different sort of beast. On a different note, I do find your understated episode description immensely entertaining, especially on a second read!

noicee

Magnificent! Thank you for such a good game choice and detailed playthrough. Wanted to ask you while I’m at it. I usually know all of your references and songs, but one has caught my interest that I don’t know of. You say it somewhat like this: “everyone’s here, the colors weave into a spiral flame”. You said it during the stage prior to Skull Kaiser in the first go-around of Genju Ryodan and during the 7th episode of Dark Half at 8:33, which I’m watching now to catch up. It sounds awesome, like something I’d want to watch or read. Would you tell me what it is? Also while we’re here, who’s Holfnerg?

It hurts my brain to watch. But I can't look away

This is so beautiful, top choice. It makes all the difference that you hit the audio balance just right! Several playthroughs others did on it had the background too low, which surprisingly destroys the feeling of this game. Now for my 1st game suggestion! Silver (1999) for PC. It is one of the most charming games ever made, and certainly one of the most unheard of ones today. It has pre-rendered backgrounds similar to FFVII, so mind the screen aspect ratio. I played it half way through at the time and can guarantee its quality for you. Don’t worry about the unique controls, the game is very forgiving so as to be more accessible.

Another game in the middle of Infinite Fusion? Cool stuff! I’m a little late with preparing my suggestions list, aren't I? That brings a question. Where do you want me to post them? I could do so in the comments, but there’s a danger of them disappearing, plus I could not post more about the history and requirements of each game, nor any links especially. Sorry for not writing in a while. The work has been ridiculous for me lately, however I still did watch everything as it came out. I’m even catching up with things from way back before, just had no time to log in properly is all.

Nice ✅

🌸 *PromoSM*

Wait for mee the pokemon uploads getting fasterr i am on the 3ep oof brb

now this is what feels good to me lol thank you

'I vant yo manni!' :) Simple but great game, Go on!

Surprisingly given great selection over the years, this Wario voicing of yours is my favourite thus far! I have no pre-knowledge of Wario, so this is my first impression, but I love that “greed is a passion too” positive air you give him! On a related note, a Game Boy game that has a more fun gameplay, mechanics, characters, exploration, and more cool stuff to do than an average game of today. I really wonder sometimes...

This was the first GB game I played, it's really fun
