The lantern is the candle!
POGGERS!!! 😯
Link saved Zelda
Link's Awakening's bizarre, dreamlike story was also inspired by Twin Peaks, which was really popular in Japan. The co-creator Mark Frost confirmed a few months ago that Nintendo even consulted him on it.
That is true
Still one of my favorite Zelda games.
Twin Peaks the TV show, not the sports bar chain. Just to make that clear for people who aren't familiar with one or the other. 😉
That's pretty wild, wish I could watch Twin Peaks.
There's a porno called Twink Peaks lol
Rocket Knight Adventures is a timeless classic in my opinion. That first level in the battlefield, and seeing a boss go cruising by in the background before appearing in the foreground, blew my little kid mind.
I had never heard of it but it looks amazing
I played that game so much as a kid, never quite beat it... Maybe I should go back
RKA was one of the first games I ever rented after I got my Genesis as a kid. And damn it was AWESOME! I rented it over and over and, eventually, when Blockbuster started selling off their Genesis games... i bought it! Still sitting on my game shelf! I eventually got and loved both Sparkster games too (after getting over the major confusion of having played the Genesis version on SEGA Channel or something once and then getting the SNES one years later and SWEARING that the mechanics were different... wouldnt find out for a bit longer that I wasn't crazy!)
Shame the 2010 game was just kinda alright. Wasn't bad, but nothing to draw me back to it like the 16 bit games had.
RKA's soundtrack is fantastic too! Easily one of the greatest standouts on the Genesis.
I played it nearly daily but don't think I ever got to the end. One of the best rodent mascot games of all time
Yeah, it is one of my favorites on Genesis. Don't know if it's a bad thing this game never got outside 16-bit consoles, on the one hand a wasted potential, on the other hand a timeless classic that will never be spoiled with mediocre sequles, like sonic.
Link's Awakening was the very first video game I ever played, and I have no idea how many times I've beaten it. When I played the Switch remake and heard Marin's song again after all these years, I couldn't help but cry. What a masterpiece.
This thumb up icon cannot express how much I agree.
So after you're done beating it, you cry? Sounds like a typical Tuesday 🎉
My first game was NES mario bros. in around 1986 (i was 5yo) but Link's Awakening is my all-time #1 fav. Played on the original green monochrome gameboy when it came out.
I owned Socket on the Genesis. I still remember the tagline on the back of the box.
"Socket is so fast, he can shut off his bedroom light and be under the covers before the room is dark!"
Edgy, but also reminds kids to go to bed on time.
RKA is the smartest Sonic clone I've ever played. It's a high-speed anthropomorphic platformer starring a character that doesnt just run really fast. The way it approaches platforming is also distinctly unique enough that the game can proudly stand on its own merits.
It's nice for this episode that Projared had the chance to talk about three good games.
I just completed Link's Awakening with my daughter last week. I played it on Super Gameboy with my dad back when I was a kid, and now I played it with my 15 y/o. Just this time, we were both on our own DS systems, side by side. It's one of my favorite games, ever. I love it so much.
And Samurai Shodown was MY fighting game growing up!! I always played Nakoruru! By learning her, I was able to show up a bully that wouldn't leave us alone over at a local arcade. He said "girls suck at video games" and teased my very shy, sensitive little brother for being naturally quiet. My brother wanted to hide behind me, so I said "I *can* beat you! I'll prove it right now! And when I do, you'll leave us alone forever!" Whooped his ass. When we went home and my dad got off work, my little brother regaled the tale of how I used the power of video games to stop a bully. Dad gave me a high five, a kiss on the forehead, and said "that's my girl!"
omg this sounds like an 80s movie! I am tearing up a little imagining you showing that bully whats up and how proud your family was at the arcade. EMOTIONAL. love that for you.
@@alextthomas My single dad spent a lot of time playing video games with us. That was our family thing. He still likes to tell that story at family gatherings.
Link's Awakening is incredibly important to me. It was my first ever Zelda game. I remember as a kid I got given a Game Boy suddenly along with a copy of the original Link's Awakening. I honestly consider it the best of the 2D Zelda games, but maybe that is nostalgia on my end.
Same here its music, characters and items are all fantastic. Its my favorite Zelda game.
Exactly, same here as well. Love this game.
I feel the same way about A Link to the Past on SNES. But Link's Awakening is a true classic and a worthy successor to ALTTP. It's a great game, and way harder than its SNES big bro, IMHO.
I only just played it on Switch but I loved it. Never had handheld growing up but I played all the originals as they released on home console. Awakening is very special.
Much of the gameplay came from Link to the Past, though
Link's Awakening was *my* Zelda game. I had three brothers so lots of our games were shared, especially our NES games, but we eventually got two Gameboys to share between us, so I was able to sometimes hog one to play this.
I don't buy remakes as a rule, and especially not remakes of games that are already good, but this game was so important to me that I have gotten every version.
I remember buying Link's Awakening together with the Super Game Boy with my mother. Next to learning 9 year old me how to grind in Secret of Mana, one of the best memories I made with her ❤
Hey'o, Neo Geo owner here. Thanks for giving Samurai Shodown a spotlight for this week's Nit90s. I always saw SamSho as my favorite series among SNK's fighting game catalog. The first game might not be the best of the series (that honor would go to II or IV, personally) and it's not even the most violent (that honor easily goes to V Special), but I'm glad it kicked off one of my favorite FG series of all time. And hey, props to Crystal Dynamics/SNK for keeping the 3DO port of SamSho 1 as violent and bloody as the arcade MVS release. Thank you for another awesome episode, Jared and Dylan!
I actually think Link's Awakening is my personal favorite Zelda Game. Had it on the original Gameboy and the DX version on the Gameboy Color. Such a great game.
Edit : A lot of bangers this week and I had no idea just this many mascot platformers dropped this week.
Link's Awakening always has a special place in my heart, as it was the first Zelda game I ever got. I also kinda got it for free, through some weird circumstances. My aunt ran a daycare and my mom worked for her as the cook so I got to go for free basically and I was there all day until my mom went home, which was at close anyway. Well, one day, near close, I found a GameBoy just sitting there on a counter, Zelda in the slot and I picked it up and started playing it. I was instantly hooked. I didn't want to put it down. And when I asked whose it was, my aunt just shrugged and said, "I dunno, you take it." and I was more than happy to be like, "OKAY!" I have no idea if that had been sitting for awhile or if it was just an easy way to make me happy that my aunt could claim that the kid didn't keep an eye on their stuff. There was literally only one other kid and it wasn't theirs at the time, so they obviously did leave it just out in the open. But that was how I got a free grey brick GB and Zelda Link's Awakening for free and became a Zelda fan instantly.
God this is all so good. All three games I either owed or have fond memories of. I wasn't allowed to play my Mom's Gameboy much so I never got Link's Awakening but I remember that commercial vividly. Rocket Knight Adventures is super underrated in my eyes, it's so cool! And I had the SNES port of Samurai Showdown. Got it for Christmas in 94...my cousin promptly stole it
My core memory of Link's Awakening is the notorious winter of '94 in the North Eastern US. It was day after day with snow from Christmas all through most of January of 1994. We had rolling brown outs due to the strain a huge multi-day snow storm that would not leave us alone. I was playing Link's Awakening the entire time after shoveling out for the twelfth time that week. I was able to power my way through most of it by the time we eventually were able to get out of our houses. I still have fond memories of the game and enjoyed the remake when I picked it up recently.
That Legend of Zelda Link’s Awakening rap commercial has to be the hardest ad by Nintendo not only it’s a rap which the genre was huge in the 90s but it made Nintendo look kinda cool and culture with it
Two of my favorite games ever, in one video? Hell yeah!! Link's Awakening was the first Zelda game I ever bought with my own money, and I immediately fell in love with it. Rocket Knight Adventures is an underrated classic that has quickly shot up to being my #1 favorite Genesis game (and that's saying a lot, since Sonic 3 and Knuckles held that spot for years).
I remember that Zelda: Link’s Awakening commercial. Still slaps today. 💃 I also remember playing Samurai Shodown as a kid, my father took me with him to get his hair cut and the barbershop, had Samurai Shodown in the corner of the place.
The Immortal was insane and obviously Links Awakening was an absolute classic. It was a good week.
High Seas Havoc is one of the most underrated 16-bit platformers of all time. It can be very difficult but satisfying to play, not to mention it features some of the best graphics and music on the Genesis.
And the fact it came out same week as Rocket Knight Adventures makes us Sega fans very fortunate ❤!
Amazing how I got both of those games from my cousin, and now I'm wondering if she got them at the same time by chance....
I want to know who owns the rights to High Seas Havoc so we can get a re-release on modern consoles. I know G-Mode currently owns the rights to lots of Data East's games, but some are owned by PaonDP and I can't tell who has the rights to this one.
With any luck, I'm hoping Jared, Dylan, and the rest of the gang here can find out because I'd love to play that!
The Legend of Zelda is my favourite game series of all time and it all started for me with Link's Awakening. If recall correctly, I borrowed it from a friend and fell in love with it.
On this year in history tomorrow, I turned 7. I got a SNES as a present. I already had a NES at home so the SNES stayed at my grandma's house. I was too poor for too many games as a kid so I enjoy these nostalgia trips of what I missed out on.
Now that I think about it, when you get to 1996, I'm hoping you can track down the exact release dates for each version of Tetris Attack because I keep getting vague or conflicting information in my research. I would love to have an exact date for the annual speedrun tournaments I put together.
If nobody else is gonna say it, I will. Happy late birthday. Hope it was a good one. God bless.
I used to rent Rocket Knight all the time as kid. Game kicks ass. Super unique platformer for the time and it still holds on quite nicely.
3:30 it was also the first where each dungeon had its own theme.
Crazy that all those mascot platformers came out the same week. Overall what a high quality release week this was.
Socket.....Rocket Knight.... this week was a massive nostalgia hit for me
Imagine shelling out $240 for the home version of Samurai Shodown, only to have it censored.
I wanna know why the game was that expensive, especially in 1990s money that'd be like a thousand bucks or something
@@HylianFox3 The Neo Geo arcade units and home system were the same hardware. The system itself was $650 (about $1,400 after inflation). You were essentially buying the full-on arcade game.
"DUDE, BUBSY IS JACKED!"
Dylan, that got me chuckling.
13:19 Yep, that's about how The Immortal goes, LOL. Also, for what it's worth, the 8-bit version is available in the Switch Online NES app, although without all the gnarly blood of course.
I utterly love the Samsho (Samurai Shodown) series, and if anyone was interested, the newest release is from 2019 and it's an amazing fighting game in pretty much everything current, even switch
I love Samsho. I had to get the 2019 copy and the Neo Geo collection. It had to be physical for me. ❤
Just be sure to avoid the PS1 version of Samurai Shodown: Warrior's Rage and the Xbox 360 version of Samurai Shodown Sen. Both are just Soul Calibur ripoffs, weren't fun to play, had ugly graphics, boring story, missing fan favorite fighters, and hardly any charms from the 2D games.
@@VOAN l still have Zen installed in ye olde 360. A guilty pleasure for sure
I have a special place in my heart for Link's Awakening. My sisters had the game boy combos packs that came with the game and it was one of my earliest games and my introduction to the series and I've been a huge fan ever since.
Glad to have discovered your channel recently the last quarter of last year Jared. Been fun learning about favorite classics I grew up playing and owned, to titles that I have missed grabbing as a kid/teen back in the days. Keep up the great work Jared. You've been making learning about gaming fun and entertaining at the same time. I grew up mostly a Sony/Nintendo household. So learning about fun titles that other systems had as a kid I missed out on. Has been a blast. Keep up the good fun edutainment Jared.
17 minutes episode?? Thank you so much, Jared and Dylan!
D-d-d-down with Zelda! I remember that commercial vividly and fondly. It seems this franchise had a weird connection to hip hop. LoL
High Seas Havoc, I remember playing this game back in the day but years have passed and for the life of me I couldn't remember the name of that game, only the main character. Thanks to you guys I might be able to play it again!
It's great
Ah, Link's Awakening. Think I recall someone from school wanting me to help him with the Secret Seashell quest, but we didn't at the time. Think I was too shy to borrow someone else's gameboy. Played the DX version in college and liked it so much we asked for an ocarina as a present. My partner didn't play it until I bought the Switch remake when that came out. I wish they kept the picture taking in the Switch version, but that's just because I love the art style in that game so much.
Happy my partner started watching this series on Fridays now. He was surprised at how many Sonic-esque characters were made this week alone and might try some of them. Love how Dylan hid Bubsy behind High Seas Havoc.
Thank you so much for playing that commercial for Zelda. I loved it as a kid. I remember before we moved to Hawaii for Dad's 20th year in the military before he retired, we were in Texas going on a camping trip to Big Bend National Park. Before we left San Antonio, he stopped by a Toys R Us and we snagged Link's Awakening as an early bday gift for me (My birthday is August 30th) so I wasn't bored on the car trip. Good times
I love, love, LOVE, Link's Awakening. My first zelda game and its unmatched in charm and quirkiness in the series. Remake is top tier too.
Sometimes its good to have a different team on your big projects. Waiting to see SNES sparkster on the show too
This is still one of my favorite videos to watch a week. I love this series. Keep up the awesome work!
I had Samurai Shodown for the SNES and honestly one of my favorite parts was the disarming mechanic. Which I always thought was strange that similar fighters like Soul Calibur never had that feature.
Actually, the first game in the "Soul Series," Soul Blade on PS1, did have a disarming mechanic and unarmed fighting. Never played it myself, but from what I heard, it was a very half-baked system, as every character had the exact same hand-to-hand moveset.
There was also a unique fighting game called Ninja Masters also on NeoGeo that features hand-to-hand and weapon based combat in similarity to both Samurai Shodown II and Super Street Fighter II Turbo with each fighter having different movesets, death blows (a.k.a. fatalities), and super combos depending on if they are armed or not. This idea was later adopted into Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance and Mortal Kombat Deception for the GameCube and Xbox.
Also this week 30 years ago, I was born! I've been waiting for this!......oh god I'm old now
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening was one of the reasons to own a Game Boy back in the day. I will also admit to owning both the DX version for GBA as well as the Switch remake. I will say, if Nintendo wanted to remake The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages for Switch, I totally would buy them.
Hope everyone who is reading this is having a great weekend🎉
You too
Always nice to see positivity like this. Hope you have a good one too.
I wasn't expecting a reference to one of my favorite movies, so hearing Dylan mention Graboids made me laugh out loud. 😆
Man, that Zelda commercial is the most 90s thing I've seen this year.
...and of course I still remember all of the words.
Perfect! I was waiting for this video to get uploaded! It's hard for me to start my Fridays without my Now in the 90s! :D
The 2010 Rocket Knight game is definitely a sequel, and what's interesting is it's actually pretty far in the future of first two games, taking place 20 years after Rocket Knight Adventures, with Sparkster living in a quiet country home with his wife and kids. Sparkster is actually given a pretty old canon age for a mascot platformer--he's 17 in the first game, 22 in RKA2 and 37 in Rocket Knight. Contrasts pretty hard with other mascot platformers (even video game protagonists in general) who are usually consistently underage if not actual children.
I actually played Link's Awakening before Link to the Past because I didn't get my SNES until December 93 but had a Gameboy long before then.
There's really nothing I can say about Link's Awakening that hasn't already been said, but now I want Dylan to make a full video playthrough of The Immortal
Of all the games I have ever played, the one dearest and most important to me is Link's Awakening. I cannot count how many times I've beaten it, yet every time I pick it up it feels like hanging out with an old friend. It is so charming, endearing, touching, rich, intricately woven with secrets and full of surprises in every square of the map. It might not be the largest, but it's definitely the densest Zelda game ever made.
Rocket Knight Adventures is my absolute favorite Genesis game. What a gem.
Mines too. The animation and gameplay is unmatched.
I had absolutely no idea that Sparkster was a possum. Holy shit did that blow my mind. Just another reason why I have to keep up with this channel. Thank you all for your work every week!
Link's Awakening was not only my first Zelda but also one of my first video games. And it still holds up quite well today.
My two FAVORITE characters, Gen-an and Earthquake didn't get shown once in the Samurai Showdown segment! I played this game so much in the arcades with my cousin!
Friendly reminder that Gen-an from Samurai Showdown has Shiranui as his family name. Unless otherwise stated by SNK, it highly likely that he is Mai’s ancestor. I’ll leave y’all to think about that for the time being.
The timing is so impeccable, I just had a friend of mine last night talking about how much he loves Rocket Knight Adventures and here it is getting talked about in depth. This is certainly a good week for games, all of the main titles are classics
I played Rocket Knight Adventures, Tinhead, and High Seas Havoc a few years back when streaming Genesis games, and they were all pretty good times. I especially have a fondness for High Seas Havoc, complete with ripping an animation of the second-to-last boss and getting his laugh as a new follower notification. My notes have Rocket Knight coming out September 3rd, but I hadn't connected Tinhead and Havoc came out so close to each other! ^^
Gotta make one correction: *Link's Awakening* isn't "isometric." *Age of Empires* (The RTS game) and *Landstalker* are both "isometric", where things environments are shown at a 45 degree angle to make them look more 3D. *Link's Awakening* is just 2D.
Jared’s entering his silver Fox days and I’m here for it
I look back at the fist videos, when editor Dylan was more of a tell-the-facts-and-go guy... how sweetly far we've come 😊
11:26 *"Yes, it's Sparkster, and he is one awesome possum!"*
But does he kick Dr. Machino's butt?
During the week, I always forget that these come out every Friday, so I'm somehow pleasantly surprised every time.
I remember that commercial for Link's Awakening vividly. Pity i was only 3 and considered much too young to own a Game Boy. I didn't own a Game Boy until I was 6 and got the GB Pocket for Christmas of 96 with Link's Awakening as my first game (along with Super Mario Land 2). Its a memorable long standing favorite of mine as well as the Color remake and Switch remake. I have physical copies for each game, including the very first one i got for Christmas long ago to this day. Link's Awakening is more than just a game, it's a historical and cultural artifact to anyone who is young and young at heart.
Is it purely 90's nostalgia or were commercials so much more interesting to watch back then than they are now?
ive played the legend of zelda link's awakening and i remember buying this game on the 3ds Eshop and loved it, and still to this day it was one of my favourte 2D zelda games of all time. fun fact i remember in the game stealing from the item shop owner and being called theif for the rest of the adventure, such a shame you get a game over if you go in the item shop though. Such great memories of that journey.
Now In The 90s Amazing Series
At the age of 12 I rode my bike 10 miles (20 total counting the way back) in the dark to a VG import store to buy Link's Awakening. One of my fav memories and game ever!
I like how an ad started playing immediately after the Link’s Awakening rap. Even the video needed a break from itself after that one.
Anyway, looks like I played every game in the main section (sorry, Editor Dylan). My favorite of the three is Rocket Knight Adventures. A friend of mine gave me the game along with some other Genesis games because he no longer had the console and I will forever be grateful for it.
Link's Awakening was not only my first Game Boy game, but my very first game period! My mom took my to Toys R Us and she bought me a Game Boy (clear plastic version, AKA the best one), and a copy of Link's Awakening. I would always get stuck after finishing the second dungeon, so I was constantly restarting it. Took me a long time to figure out what to do in order to get the key for the third dungeon.
While the first Zelda was the first one I played, LA was the first one I really sunk my teeth into. Such a good game, even today.
Good God that Link's Awakening commercial was the most 90s thing
Rocket Knight was one of the few "Sonic clones that actually worked". A distinctive theme and aesthetic and unique platforming with a different take on speed that still felt great to control. Plus, Sparkster is really stinking cute.
In addition to its platformer and shooter levels, RKA also featured an awesome one-off giant robot boxing level.
467 days until Donkey Kong Country...
This week's main line-up was legendary! :o
Fun fact about Rocket Knight Adventures: It has the usual "rental-proofing" that many games had in the west, but rather than make the US version more difficult, they just renamed the difficulty settings. "Normal" became "Children", "Hard" became "Easy", "Very Hard" became "Normal", and "Crazy Hard" became "Hard". They're the same four difficulty modes. The EU version also has *just* the lowest difficulty renamed.
The only actual functional change is that in the Japanese version you can get the full ending on any difficulty, while in the US and EU versions you can't get it on the lowest difficulty. Also the level select cheat only works in the Japanese version.
glad to see dylans attitude has much improved!
This week was pretty amazing. Link's Awakening, Rocket Knight Adventures, and Samurai Shodown/Spirits are all stone-cold classics even if no one owned an AES. And High Seas Havoc is actually good too!
Link's Awakening, Samurai Shodown, _and_ Rocket Knight Adventures? What a great week.
As a side note, Link's Awakening was the first Zelda game I ever owned, though I had already played my friend's copy of A Link to the Past quite a bit.
i played links awakening on a road trip to Oregon from Washington at night using the lamp posts we passed as my only light source
I got link's awakening the year it came out. I hated it at first, but grew and grew on me. I remember, it had to be August '93 Nintendo power issue- it was issue 50- they made a big deal out of it.
First HD remaster collection? Super Mario All-Stars?
I really want to see the Samurai Showdown anime!
Link’s Awakening is one of my favorite games of all time. From combining weapons to the existential crisis it gave me as a child thinking my life is but a dream.
AWAKE THE DREAMER, AND KOHOLINT WILL VANISH MUCH LIKE A BUBBLE ON A NEEDLE
Finally Link's awakening! One of my favourite titles right along Majora's Mask. Thank you so much and keep up the good job! 👏🏼
That commercial for Link's Awakening....poor guy! Oh the 90's, I kind of miss you?
Collector's corner is my most favorite segment!
That Link's awakening rap commercial. Brings back memories.
LA probably has more cameos than any other Zelda game
You've got Goombas, Piranha Plants, Kirby (as "Anti-Kirby"), Princess Peach (as "Christine"), Mr. Wright (as "Mr. Write"), Wart (as "Mamu" which is Wart's name in Japan), Chain Chomps (as "Bow Wow" also its Japanese name), Prince Richard from that _For the Frog the Bell Tolls_ game, and probably others I can't recall off the top of my head. That's still a LOT.
6:37 - 6:40 That plum actually goes to 1992's Time Killers.
I loved the Rocket Knight reboot game on my PS3. It's a really good platformer that's a lot of fun, plus it's beautiful.
Great episode this week, game wise and performance wise. Hilarious! As for next week, I can't wait. First HD remaster collection? SUPER MARIO ALL STARS!! LET'S GO!
Link's Awakening was actually my first Zelda game I ever played, and probably my favorite one.
I never played the '93 original, but when I got Link's Awakening DX for the GBC, I used to play it literally all the time. It still stands as my favorite to this very day not for its revolutionary gameplay or anything _(though a full Zelda game with two buttons is pretty amazing, you gotta admit),_ but because the story is so pure-no princesses to rescue, no threats of impending doom, no obnoxious fairies or imps or ghosts telling you what to do constantly _(unless you count Old Man Ulrira... I don't)._ You're a guy who washed up on an island literally made of dreams; kill the giant monsters keeping the Wind Fish asleep to leave. Simple... to the point... and still finds a way to soften your heart.
New "Now in the 90s" episode just dropped! It's a lunker!!
August 11th, 1993. My sixth birthday. Might be why this channel hits so well.
“The world’s very first HD remaster collection?” What the hell would count- *OHHHHHH!*
I've had this game and a green gameboy color next to my bed since 1998. Game is timeless.
Hats off to patrons for not forcing him to talk a lot about Bubsy.
Socket was one of my childhood games. Its great to see it in the wild.
