Thank you for watching! I hope fans of the Ogre series in particular found something interesting in it. A few things about this video: 1. I've wanted to do it for years! 2. I had to upload in lower quality than I wanted, since the original file was ~170GB and was taking over a day to upload. 3. I've been having bad headaches every day for about two weeks now, which delayed the making of this video. I had a particularly awful one while filming this, so I think I somehow stutter and slur even more than usual, so my apologies, I know it's quite annoying. It was "now or never," though, in order to drop this collection video in time for the release of Tactics Ogre Reborn. 4. The music might be a little loud for some setups, but it's so good that I couldn't NOT lower it too much. 5. I want to do similar videos for my Suikoden/Chrono/Valkyrie/etc. collections--what would you like to see next?
Ogre Battle 64 is a very special game to me. As an RPG-starved N64 college student I was so happy when this was released. I spent so many hours playing and replaying it. It really is one of the best RPGs ever. I hope if the Tactics Ogre remaster is successful they will remaster OB64 too.
It really is so good--fingers crossed for a remake/remaster, or at the very least a collection of the Ogre games...and most of all, a new entry in the series!
@destroyermaker I'm good with unicorn overlord in March 2024, though cards with art for $130 is too much. Hope ogre battle 64 or gba tactics ogre the knight of lodis goes to switch online expansion one day. 44:12 yay grandma Tactics ogre reborn had bad AI and level cap but there's a cool youtube channel Burak C has for obscure quality cutscenes. Do admit it inspired FFT a lot with Vyce (not skies of arcadia Vyse lol) being a bit similar to Delita, and of course easy exploits that were good material for a ton of my videos (good lord throw stone even allies with monk buffing fundaments, and tailwind every turn unlocked jobs quickly, and arcane strength even buffs mediator, which helps Agrias' low atk and high magic as a holy knight, and samurai).
Thank you so much for showing this stuff! Been such a huge fan of the series since MOTBQ. A criminally underrated series to be sure. Wish more merch was released in the west!
You're welcome, thank you for watching! Yeah, I always loved this series and while it was popular in the mid 90s in Japan, it seemed to be overlooked in the grand scheme of gaming. The PSP release 10 years ago gave it a nice boost in popularity, especially in the West since the other games were hard to come by, but I'm really hoping Reborn does well so we can get more Ogre in the near future.
Oh my god the music... I was listening to the Radiant Silvergun OST recently and I felt like such an idiot. As I was listening to those bells playing I thought "Wait... Those bells... Sound like the Final Fantasy Tactics bells? Infact, this entire sound font and style sounds just like... OH MY GOD! HES A FREAKING GENIUS" Hitoshi Sakimoto ♡ His Dragons Crown score... That village music... Dudes one of my heroes. Such an underrated composer. Oh my god Dragons Crown is 10 years old next year. Possible switch release?!?!
So many great game music composers out there, but Hitoshi Sakimoto is my favorite...well, it's always a toss up between him and Mitsuda. If Dragon's Crown came out on Switch...yeah, I'd buy it again.
@@ImportGamingFTW I cannot tell you how many hours I pumped into Dragons Crown. Even though it could have used WAY more dungeons (but I understand this was essential a smaller project) I just adored everyone about the game so much. One of my favorite composers is Aki Hata. She is an absolute beast of a composer. From doing the absolutely brilliant and wonderfully avant garde Lightcrusader OST for Treasure, to working on the incredible Rocket Knight Adventures and then even doing the iconic OST for Azumanga Diaoh; hot damn. If I had the skills I'd make an entire video series breaking down her best works haha. Also love Kota Hoshino who did Evergrace. The game with possibly the most stressful shopping music ever made.
Thank you for the video. Few people know that the glass pumpkin has been infused with chemicals which allow it to turn any cup of coffee into a pumpkin spice latte. Good for a hundred uses!
Whoa an hour long?! Nice! I absolutely love Tactics Ogre. Can't wait to watch this and be tempted to buy a million things :p (As hyped as I am to watch it I like to save Jimmy Hapa videos for at night when I can mellow out and get the most enjoyment out of them. They're super relaxing to me)
Thank you for coming by! And good luck finding a glass pumpkin...they're a bit pricey now, but you seem them pop up on Japanese market sites from time to time.
One of my all time favorite series. I spent most of my time with the Nintendo 64 game -- and I have NEVER played Tactics Ogre, so I am hoping I am in for a treat this weekend.
Ogre Battle 64 is awesome, I'm thinking about giving it another playthrough whenever I find the time to just enjoy video games again. And you're definitely in for a treat with TO!
@@ImportGamingFTW Cool! I was lucky enough to get my copy of Tactics Orge on PSP signed by Hiroshi Minagawa. I am enjoying the English patched games as well on the Saturn, good to have them available.
I have a Tactics Ogre Pencil Board or some insert from a magazine that has art on the front and stats on the back, it's pretty large and awesome, from Japan. I framed it!
For the Algorithm. Great content/video. Found you through Johnny (Happy Console Gamer) & he gave a shout out to your channel on a recent vid. I've always loved the Ogre Battle series so much. I guess since back in the SNES days. I remember renting it & thought it was a lot of fun. Too bad I never purchased it then. I have it on PS1 now. Anyway awesome vid.
Thank you for contributing to The Great Algorithm with your comment, and more so for coming over from John's video. It's great you have the PS1 game...one of the only games I really would like to own now are the North American PS1 versions of the Ogre games.
I can forgive you...but just this once. Unless you help me get Australian versions of Ogre games. Then you can be a fake Tactics Ogre fan all you want.
Great collection and thanks for sharing! Yes, PlayStation Ogre Battle is the fastest by far. I didn't know about the tarot cards that came out before PSP. What is the name of the magazine with the Tactics Ogre poster?? Kind of interesting that the manga seems follow the neutral path to end of Chapter 3. The strategy guide for Ogre Battle Gaiden on NGPC would be a nice pickup.
Thanks! Appreciate confirmation of the PS1 game running the fastest. The poster I have is from Dengeki Super Famicom #14 from 1995. And I've been meaning to get that guide for a while now, keep putting it off!
You're lucky if you have the English versions on PS1, those are some of my most sought after titles at the moment! And that mousepad...I bought mine at an electronics shop in Japan, but you can find it on Amazon, I'm sure. Probably run you 20-30 bucks.
@@ImportGamingFTW Thanks! I'll look around. Are you in Japan by any chance 😁. I've had my PSX collection for 20 years now, so i got those games (along with every other PSX RPG) back when they were easy to find and cheap. But it was already too late to get the SNES games for cheap. Though still much cheaper than today
Probably one, maybe two, by the end of the year--already have things set up for the next episode, so it should be smooth sailing once I get working on it.
Awesome collection! Those tarot cards and the glass pumpkin are amazing promo items, hope you can get one of the new ones! Messaged you on Skype, let's hook up!!

I'd like to see you go to a doctor!
Chrono stuff would be interesting.
Vallyrie and suikoden collection would be cool. I think there are a lot of entries in those that never came out in English
Always cool when you share your stuff. So all of the above would be good to see. But if I have to vote for just one to show next..... Chrono
Yeah, hope you have consulted a doctor about this, just in case there's anything that needs to be checked out.

@@ImportGamingFTW If they combine OB64 graphics/art/sound with Tactics' gameplay, I'd be in heaven

I just tried it out and FAKE NEWS!
@@ImportGamingFTW Oh shit
English translation of Ogre Battle for Sega Saturn was released this year.
Thanks, you know I think I heard about it from RetroRGB, but it slipped my mind. That's awesome there's a patch for that version, it's really good.
Whoa an hour long?! Nice! I absolutely love Tactics Ogre. Can't wait to watch this and be tempted to buy a million things :p
(As hyped as I am to watch it I like to save Jimmy Hapa videos for at night when I can mellow out and get the most enjoyment out of them. They're super relaxing to me)
Always appreciate you coming by--let me know if you ended up picking anything up from this video, ha ha.
Thanks for sharing, amazing collection! I really want that glass pumpkin now...
Thank you for coming by! And good luck finding a glass pumpkin...they're a bit pricey now, but you seem them pop up on Japanese market sites from time to time.
I am very excited for your Tengai Makyou retrospective when it comes out but I will let you take your time
Thanks--it's going to be a while, but when I finally put it out, I hope it will be worth watching and waiting for.
@@ImportGamingFTW I hope so too

That Glass pumpkin and story is awesome!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it--it's one of the "treasures" of the series for sure. I hope I get one of the 500 that are being produced for TO Reborn!
Awesome collection! The Deluxe Special Edition looks nice, looking forward to seeing the unboxing.
Thanks! Hopefully I can get that Reborn unboxing/first look/first impressions out early next week.
@@ImportGamingFTW Cool! I was lucky enough to get my copy of Tactics Orge on PSP signed by Hiroshi Minagawa. I am enjoying the English patched games as well on the Saturn, good to have them available.
Man you always put out top quality stuff, time to marathon it all again
Completed Ogre Battle for the first time. It's probably my favorite Saturn game now.
I have a Tactics Ogre Pencil Board or some insert from a magazine that has art on the front and stats on the back, it's pretty large and awesome, from Japan. I framed it!
Ooh, nice, I'll have to try to find that--happy to hear you framed it, I love the art from that game.

Hot damn Jimmy that shiny picture is crazy. I've never seen the art on the backside. Am I not a true Tactics Ogre fan?
I can forgive you...but just this once. Unless you help me get Australian versions of Ogre games. Then you can be a fake Tactics Ogre fan all you want.
A MIDI version of the sound track huh. Totally need to track that down then.
I've only ever played the SNES and GBA games. I'd love to get into all the series. :(
I don't see how you WOULDN'T enjoy the rest of the games...

That's awesome, you may have purchased the copy I used to dream about buying! Pearl City or Kaimuki?
@@ImportGamingFTW i can't remember it been a long time Al i know it was on Honolulu
Thanks Jimmy!
You're welcome, James!
These games rule! Cool find!
Much appreciated--I love this series (as you can tell)!
waiting for the Pixel MODs.
To make the game look more...pixely? That would be nice.
I would love that FF mouse pad where can i get one? Cool collection overall. I only have the English version of everything (on ps1, psp, gba).

Probably one, maybe two, by the end of the year--already have things set up for the next episode, so it should be smooth sailing once I get working on it.
@@ImportGamingFTW Great. BTW, What happened to Demoing Demos ????
I can't watch yet but here's a comment in advance. I will report back with envy once I go pretend shopping through your video, brother.
