UNBOXING FFVII REBIRTH COLLECTOR'S EDITION | PS5
13:00 OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHH!!!! you really stimulated a spark within me when you mentioned Pokemin Colosseum. To me that's my number 1 favorite game out of all the gamecube games I have. I bought that game by accident at a swap meet of someone selling gamecube games at that time when I was little. I asked for Super Smash Bros. Melee but when I opened the case, it wasn't the game but Pokemon Colosseum. First, I had doubts of playing it but i still tried and till this day, i have never regret of purchasing the failed game case because the game felt much better than super smash bros. Melee( I played it before with neighbors). But seriously, I regret now of not paying any attention of Nintendo's accessories such as the link cable to recoeve jhoto pokemon from Colosseum to the Polemon GBA games.
My dream would be they can make another spin off game like it but for modern consoles. I couldn't get into the latest spin off Arceus as it felt like I was just a Pokemon farmer, who literally had to catch em all over and over. Agree with the accessories, I think Pokemon Bank filled that gap for awhile but even that is gone now. Maybe if they did a device like a tamagotchi/digivice and you could raise your Pokemon from a game outside while you weren't playing then it levels up in game when you go back or gets stat boosts. One can dream haha
@@Astralbeargaming I think we had a device similar which is pokewalker but during the time when Heartgold and Soulsilver first came out. There also was the e-reader card scanner that I missed out on when I was little. I agree with you that Nintendo should bring back these games to the Switch and Switch 2 but who knows when that will happen. Yes, I started to grew tired of Pokemon right when Black and White came out but I still rather play Black and White 1 and 2 than the rest of the Pokemon games that come after those releases.
ohh I missed all the Pokemon accessories then. Hopefully the next main game has more finesse than the last releases, especially if the switch 2 capability allows for better performance.
Thx спасибо
I really loved this game :)
Same, it has some flaws but overall I really enjoyed playing it.
Aladdin is one of my earliest memories of beating a game and Lion King is one of my earliest memories of absolutely giving up out of frustration over a game. I think the snes remains my favorite console all these years later. Too many good games to name them all; super mario world, dk country, super metroid, castlevania, demon's crest, f-zero. And on and on into infinity. Great video!
The Lion King was so unforgiving, I am glad when they remastered it for modern consoles it had features like rewind. The SNES library is truely special.
It's an adorable figure and very nice set of items overall. Happy New Year, Amanda, wish it to be actually happy and joyous for you 🎄
@@ExxL yes the items are nice in particular the case. Happy New Year to you as well.
Anyone know how to save? It won’t let me save on my switch. So I need the physical version or what? Thanks!!
@@JessicaReaves-ur8vb Hi, you can use quick save at any point. If I remember correctly it is the left bumper button for Nintendo Switch. Don’t need a physical copy, I had a digital copy and worked just fine.
@@Astralbeargaming thanks! What button, top or bottom?
@@JessicaReaves-ur8vb I think the top one. If that doesn’t work try the back one. I am on vacation without my Switch so I cannot double check for you atm.
a little late to the party, but I think you really made a good overview. Things like controller sync I didnt even consider. I used this holiday sale to pick up some games and really enjoy them as some small flexability and cardio exercise. I think they are a great addition to 'real' sports.
@@riom5 thank you. I do use switch games as part of my regular workout schedule so I am glad this list helped you out.
Is there an option to change it to English
@@maryvancil8042 no, it only has Japanese language options
Yeah, they keychain is cool, but artbook is also very nice 👍
@@ExxL agreed the artbook is also really nice
This one looks like a winner. Awesome review!!. The only thing keeping me away was the hefty price tag ($29.99!!!), but right now it's half-off till sometime in January. Time to dig in!! Have a wonderful holiday. 🙂🌲🎄🏔🌨
@@Wolfdragon92584 Yes at half off it will be worth it. Enjoy the holidays
first time seeing this game
@@jermainekidd4648 I think it is one of those hidden gems especially if you like the restaurant management genre
@Astralbeargaming l see how these hidden gems usually fly under the radar
For those who know Touhou lore some certain ghostly princess is an obvious first culprit to put the blame on... 🔍 Cute nice game, very fitting for you 👍
@@ExxL thanks for watching. That is true if you know the characters well you may be able to guess. Even if you don’t the way they build out the information of characters is great in the game
Such a cute looking game! I might have to check it out and begin my Touhou journey! 👀
@@uppernimbus yes it is a hidden gem if you enjoy the restaurant/management sim genre
Thanks for watching. Do you like these sorts of games?
Don't usually play rhytm games, so Potionomics is closer to home for me, but Touhou...
@ I am yet to play potionomics but did see it is on switch. Might have to be the next game I pick up
Thanks for watching
Does this game even have a English setting or option?
No it is only in Japanese
It's been confirmed by Gematsu, The Switch version in the west has been cancelled. Well... this sucks. I have no clue why Idea Factory made up their mind or Nintendo changing their policy right away?
@@kareemcecil8974 ohh really that is such a shame. Especially for players who have played the other two games.
Did you play it in Fidelity mode? Cause that could explain all the performance issues you encountered.
@@tauren00 I played it in the mode that is default. Not sure what one it was
@@Astralbeargaming Hi Amanda, the default is Performance mode. There is also Balanced (which I used mostly) and a Graphics mode. There is no "Fidelity" mode on the PS5. Hope that helps clarify the issue. 🙋🏻♀
@@Food4Dogs Thanks for this. It must of been on performance, maybe I will jump back in sometime and use the balance setting
Never played genshin, but the art desgin of the collab is on point.
@@arachnophobe yes it is soo pretty
Hey I’m older and have less time than you believe me but I finished the game and got all the trophies, it’s just a matter of getting use to the game systems and tricks.
@@aladdinsalih7617 that is true, I just moved on to games I was enjoying more
This chicks friggin adorable
My childhood memory
Is this a game you want to play?
I have no issue with collabs. The fan was probably my fave. Hopefully their players get a kick out of it.
I am going to get a lot of use out of it this Summer! I thought it was a very tasteful collab that didn't feel cheap or gimmicky.
Have you played Black Myth: Wukong?
not yet
I feel the same way as you do. After 2 hrs (demo) decided not to pursue it. For anyone with accessibility issues, this game should be investigated closely before purchase as the settings under Accessibility are sparse (to put it politely).
@@Food4Dogs Agreed, I would have liked an option to assist when I got to the fight that made me give up. I probably should have played the demo instead of just buying the game. I got a little caught up in everyone calling it amazing...
@Astralbeargaming I almost bought it based on the great reviews and awesome trailers - but the price here in NZ is very steep (for you probably too), so I hung back. I happened to notice the demo bc I subbed to PS+ top tier for 2 months, and that gives you access to the "trial" version (2 hour limit). Why the demo isn't freely available to everyone on PSN is beyond me.
@@Food4Dogs yes $100 game over here in Australia
Great unboxing, love the folding fan myself! ❤
@@uppernimbus thank you. It is really pretty and will be useful now it is starting to get really hot this Summer
Ayy, you're back! This is definitely different. Now if only they had a cologne that smelled like Kazuha...
@@chronodiem Yes, the past few months were busy with work and a couple of sneaky trips overseas. Finally had some time again to focus on the channel. It would be awesome if they created new fragrances for different characters
Thanks for watching
This game looks like a cute and cozy time! Great review!
Thanks :)
What did you think of the series after playing? Also, super envious of all that merch lol
I liked it but I did think it was bloated in some spots so had to power through sections. Have your read through them?
nice cool man
bro you are rare people
This doesn't LOOK very good to me but... It's a shmup and it's on auction on a local site and it's cheap (for now) so may well pick up anyway. Good to know there's a different element to it rather than just the mediocre looking shmup section. Decent review. 👍
Thanks, did you end up playing it?
the guitar is ugly compared tot he previous ones
I agree, it isn't as nice as the controllers for games like guitar hero
Do you have OF?
So gorgeous edition as you are
Thanks
You have a very pleasant voice to listen to 😊. Sub. Good unboxing too.
Thank you 🙂
Thanks for sharing. Seems like a fun game
@@MisterMaster4life it is if you enjoy these types of games
Maybe they'll add controller's layout customisation yet. Looking cute and neat, unusual experience to be a delivery witch 😀
@@ExxL it would be a welcome addition if they can add it in a future update.
@@Astralbeargaming by the way, I've recently seen Chef RPG, thought - that one may interest you, check it out when you'll be able to.
Aww, this game looks absolutely adorable 🥰
@@uppernimbus it is a really cute and cosy game.
Quick question for you, if it’s no trouble in answering? These games, were they not released in the uk or outside of Japan?
@@gloverdragon6854 Digitally you can get them all outside Japan. Some have slightly different names like Retro Mystery Club for the VN. Physical copies are a different story, I believe limited run games printed Golf Story. Brave Dungeon is also getting a retail release this year but not sure if it is just in Japan.
@@Astralbeargaming thanks for replying! I managed to get 3 out of the 6. Hopefully I can get the rest, as this is a fun little subsection of games to get.
@@gloverdragon6854 That is awesome
Kool vid game reminded me of a game called cotton , also graphics reminds me of Zelda wind waker, thank u so much 4 posting nite nite from the U.S 😊
@@paulBarraza-i5c You are right the graphics are similar to Wind Waker
It does, indeed, reminds of Cotton series. They are shoot 'em ups with cute witch, Cotton, in main role. Latest installement - Rainbow Cotton Remake is first in 3D so it's closest to this game in looks, but of course gameplay is different
I do like the look of this and looks perfectly fitted for switch …..im gonna put it on my list to watch out for
@@ItsCrapContent Yea I think it would be awesome on Switch. However due to the short length of the game I would recommend waiting for a sale if you can
Thanks for watching. Find out more about the game - game.page/mikaandthewitchsmountain/Astralbeargaming
Nice review ❤
@@madkaiser4887 thank you
Not my kind of game but I like the video ,thank u so much for sharing, any video u make I’ll watch ,take care
That is very kind of you. Thanks so much.
I know this visual novel may not be marketed toward someone like myself, but I must admit that it's rather pretty. Great video, Amanda! 😊
Thanks for watching. Yes otome games do have a more niche audience than plain VNs. Especially for western audiences. On the flip side the market size and popularity of them in Asia is huge.
Interactive fiction like visual novels or point and click derivations are a very attractive shiny mine that I dont dig in too much, but if you have sometime you should check Anchorhead or King of Dragon Pass they are intersting games, also other similar foundational game like Myst (the 2021 remaster) can be an insightful journey to experience
Thanks for watching.
Good List. Although Sports is B, fun little game with variety. Is Wii Fit Compatible with Switch?
Wii Fit is not switch compatible. Ring Fit Adventure was the switch game that replaced Wii Fit. It has a lot of the same exercises/ yoga poses and more. I think it was a welcome upgrade too.
Suicune will start next week
Love all your vids ❤keep them coming
Thank you so much
