Yeah, having Rash in KI was amazing. I was hoping they'd be in Smash. They were able to put multiple Hero characters in there so I figure they could do all 3 toads.
No online co-op?? Why would you not implement that? I literally told my friends who have game pass to download this so we could play co-op, I just assumed it would have it.
I really loved the original a ton, I had always been sad that the franchise never picked up to become more culturally significant. Sadly I just find the art style incredibly grating, I don't think I could get over it to play.
As did I but most of the time I ended up with just one life left for the next level and I just got pwned there in one way or another and had to start the whole thing all over ha
De1usionsofGrandeur Man... I remember those days, that happening to me on after the second speeder level. The effort it took to get good on the NES was insane.
This art style and animation reminds me so much of Rayman Origins and Legends. The cutscenes are a bit Teen Titans but I'm into it. I'm just happy the Battletoads are back.
@@RiZeLegiT I just finished it. I spent the first half of the game enjoying the challenge on normal, but quickly got bored and start using the assists to get through to the end. It's still worth a playthough, I just didn't think the tough bits were really worth suffering through.
I highly recommend a game called Fight'n'Rage if you enjoyed SoR4. It's basically the hardcore version of SoR, made by 1 dude. Absolutely mind-blowing quality, probably the best 2d brawler out there.
Good. This was a big wonder to me. When we last saw it mentioned over a year ago I started to see the writing on the wall that we might not get a new Battletoads. Like Crackdown, I think Gamepass is the way to have fun with this, although being a huge Battletoads fan I would love to have a physical copy, some merchandise, a Dark Queen body pillow, something. Good call Karak.
CasePB Helter Skelter I don’t like the new design either but just because you can’t objectify someone doesent mean they are or are not what you say they are or aren’t. Grow up.
For those of you upset about local coop that may have a pc you can use a program named parsec to play with your friends online with little to no delay depending on your connection
This is a great "Game Pass Filler" type game. I have no ties to the original or desire to play this too much, but once I re-up my gamepass I'm sure I'll install it and mess around with it some time. Solid review.
Battletoads will always have a special place in my heart. Always got frustrated during the falling while avoiding wall spikes levels. Plus they teamed up with double dragon how epic was that.
Very well said and agree one hundred percent! The only think I would say is that you said if you have gamepass than get it, but what if you don’t have gamepass? I could’ve just missed it. Love your videos brother! Keep it up!
Love the review as always. This reaffirmed my opinion of the game based on what I had seen so far -- "Well, next time I sign up for a month of Game Pass on PC, I'll check it out then."
I loved this back in the day, and I still have a Nintendo with it ready to play. When I get nostalgic, I always play it up to the cars level, then I just turn it off so I don't break the game in half. Nice to see that they finally brought it back in a semi-beatable fashion. I will have to pick this up. Thanks for the review. Love your way of reviewing games. You have become my go-to for game reviews...
They're all out of battletoads but they probably have combatfrogs if you trade in a PS4 and Xbox one for in store credit and you get a free Funko Pop when you use your GameStop rewards card.
I grew up on Battletoads, so happy to see a new game in the series. I can proudly say that I can get passed the speeder bike levels. The snake levels on the other hand....
8:25 did Pimple just turn into a toad version of Anakaris from Darkstalkers? That is not a reference I would have expected. Actually now that I think of it, Pimple kinda looks like Powdered Toast Man.
My fondest memories come from playing Battletoads at my local arcade as a kid with my big brother. Hope you all enjoy this game with someone you care about also!
I grew up playing the first two games, been waiting for this game for SOOOOO LONG I'm so damn excited to finally play it. Just sucks that I can't play with my brothers because the game doesn't have online co-op
I've been looking forward to this game for awhile with nostalgia hoping I would feel the way I did when I was young playing it. After seeing this and some of the videos for it, it's not looking like it's going to be as good as I want it to be. That being said, I am still going to check it out!
Wow! I loved this game when I was a kid... the rocket bike level and cave drops were still as hard when I emulated it recently lol! Gotta love those toads! 😁👍🏻
I don't think I've ever made past the snake pit level in the original game, which was something quite heroic since none of my friends could make past the bike level. Damn hard game.
I legit just want a xbox for battletoads 2020 , killer instinct , and rare replay and im asking all of you if i should buy one or if there is any other games yo recomend
Xbox Game Studios got a lot of cool games this year. Flight Sim, Gears Tactics, Diablo Minecraft, Battletoads, Ori 2, Bleeding Edge (needs work), Grounded, Wasteland 3
I'm torn. It looks good, don't get me wrong, but I kinda thought the new Battletoads would have a similar perspective to the original. That, and I thought the game would be much more difficult. That said, if you have a couple friends, or are willing to use Parsec (or wait till they patch online play, which they should) the game could be very fun. Idk if I'd buy it still, We'll see.
Yeah I don't know how he was in love with the art style i think its pretty dated and poor looking. Not sure where rare was going with it.. Some of those alternate levels (like the space ship overhead shooter), look like Wii game levels.
Reminds me of flash and shockwave browser games from way back in the day. Whenever I heard there was a battletoads game coming I was really excited. Then I saw this and I'm like this looks like boring garbage...
dont laugh if i get some info wrong here. (1980's gamer who is now 54yo testing his memory from 34 years ago. when i bought the nes from bradlees dept store it came with rob. i loved it then. coming from the 2600 this was light years ahead. we'd rent as many 2 player games as we could we from a local shop. its weird because even though i was 18 i know i didn't have a credit card and i never had to leave a deposit. which is strange. i know we rented a tmnt game at that time. i just don't recall which one. i also cant recall if BT was out then or not. i don't have memories of playing it. it would have been in our wheelhouse. do you know if its coming to switch? i'll get it for my xbox anyway. thanks for the info and a stroll down memory lane for me. cheers.
Totally on point the beginning isn’t appealing and sadly I couldn’t make it. just not my game and i don’t want to put in the effort to get to the good bits. hopefully wasteland 3 delivers.

that ghetto GoBot is not what I bought back then, haha
It looks interesting at least plus it's on Gamepass so it really doesn't matter whether it's amazing or not.

I loved this game as a kid. Battle toads super mario 3 and punch out. Also paperboy
Luckily I've had this pre ordered in GameStop for the past ten years.
Which edition did you get?
@@blomgus 9000 Mudkips
This game has been in development hell for such a long time

Can't believe no online coop. That's INSANE!
Agreed

unforgivable.

The art style change may just be the worst I've ever seen
It's sorta of a mix between Worms 2D and Jack Jazz Rabbit.
@@raresmacovei8382 yep, I see what they were going for, but they failed miserably in my opinion
Idk I think it’s pretty good in my opinion
Whoa whoa whoa whoa, Captain Planet is a 90s staple. Clearly you're only Earth, Fire, Wind, Water and ZERO Heart.
Really glad this turned out well
Obviously nothing to do with gameplay or fun-factor, but WOW did the Dark Queen get a "safe" redesign -_-
yep to please the woke cult
alex duffy The design sucks but equating this to “woke cult” makes you look like an out of touch douche. Go back to 2016.
@@higanbana_red1772 the woke cult has only spread and infected more. We're not in 2016 anymore. You're out of touch dbag.
Man the toads would work so well in smash
Tbh every character ever made would be good in smash , Im still waiting for them to add 4×4 block from tetris .
Yeah, having Rash in KI was amazing. I was hoping they'd be in Smash. They were able to put multiple Hero characters in there so I figure they could do all 3 toads.
Looks more like brawhalla

You look stupid now....No offense. You are better off with Streets of rage 4 Masterclass just saying👍
Never assume
@@lupefiasco653 Assuming a co-op focused game will have online functionality in 2020 is perfectly reasonable.
Xbox is trash I’m done with them. $180 for a year for an unfinished grounded and this
Download Parsec and enjoy. It allows you online coop over internet even for local coop games with close to real time latency.
I really loved the original a ton, I had always been sad that the franchise never picked up to become more culturally significant. Sadly I just find the art style incredibly grating, I don't think I could get over it to play.
Then you're missing out. It's pretty damn fun
The Nintendo Karate chop 😂🤣, Those were the good ol days Tyson in punch out use to get me heated
I beat the speeder level on original BattleToads. I think one of my top 3 gaming achievements.
As did I but most of the time I ended up with just one life left for the next level and I just got pwned there in one way or another and had to start the whole thing all over ha
De1usionsofGrandeur Man... I remember those days, that happening to me on after the second speeder level. The effort it took to get good on the NES was insane.
Watching this makes me want a GOOD ninja turtles games.
You're in luck.
This art style and animation reminds me so much of Rayman Origins and Legends.
The cutscenes are a bit Teen Titans but I'm into it. I'm just happy the Battletoads are back.
This review ended up getting me really interested in trying out 3 Dirty Dwarves
Slightly unrelated but I started playing Streets of Rage 4 last night, damn that game is good.

Savage Mantis it’s only for pre download
Just wanna say that this was a quality review. So nuanced, clear and structured in your talking points. Great stuff!
I am disappointed with the dark queen's attire choice
I'm disappointed with her breast reduction surgery.
Being ashamed of the female form is a trend these days. A very sad one at that.
Women aren't women anymore

@Cntrol100 Why am I not surprised? Sigh.
This game was the bane of my childhood.
Specifically the speederbike level
Gotta do thr karat chop
It was only a rental for me. Loved the first two levels lol.
My PTSD takes me back to the gameboy version's level with the ball chasing.
At 4:35 it's almost like Karak is in perfect sync with the toad's lips. Trippy!
Hey Captain Planet is a treasure. 😂
The Centurions were for sure. Bros could rock the handlebar mustache!
One man's trash...
One of my favorite shows from childhood. I thought it was remembered fondly by most? Guess I’m wrong?
The power is YOURS!
Yes he is and this generation could use a cartoon like that. I really didn't understand the GI Joe comparison. What was that "joke" supposed to be?
I remember playing three dirty dwarves on a saturn demo disc.
The guy who made that wants to make a new one of that or a new Ecco The Dolphin.
For those of you upset about local coop that may have a pc you can use a program named parsec to play with your friends online with little to no delay depending on your connection
With this and streets of rage, I'm gonna have some fun couch coop!
This should have online co-op. What happened to Xbox being the multiplayer box
@@TheDomP Play local.
Well with SoR4 you will
Takes me back to the SNES era ..... loved it then, love it now!!
Good to know all the craziness came together for this one!
I remember playing battle toads & double dragon with my cousins when I was a kid. Those were the days
Wait wait wait, this game came out?! I heard *nothing* about this.
Out tomorrow.
Same ! This came out of nowhere.
Its out tomorrow, but supposedly some people can play it now if they have Game Pass.
Wow they nerfed the dark queen hard.
She thicc in game
This is a great "Game Pass Filler" type game. I have no ties to the original or desire to play this too much, but once I re-up my gamepass I'm sure I'll install it and mess around with it some time. Solid review.
Love the variety of gameplay. Nice review.
Did I hear correctly “no online co-op”. That is madness
It gets hard too, really am enjoying it so far
Three. Dirty. Dwarves... there's a game I haven't thought about in a looooong time
My lord I loved it
Battletoads will always have a special place in my heart. Always got frustrated during the falling while avoiding wall spikes levels. Plus they teamed up with double dragon how epic was that.
I really enjoyed the game. I think for its prices its well worth the cost, just for the cutscenes alone.
Very well said and agree one hundred percent! The only think I would say is that you said if you have gamepass than get it, but what if you don’t have gamepass? I could’ve just missed it. Love your videos brother! Keep it up!
He said game pass or pass, meaning he's not recommending it outside of game pass.
Love the review as always. This reaffirmed my opinion of the game based on what I had seen so far -- "Well, next time I sign up for a month of Game Pass on PC, I'll check it out then."
Need to play the first act of this just for the sea of thieves ship collection. Great review as always

Calling GameStop to ask if they have battletoads right now
Make sure you tell them coupon code FROG25 for %25 off the game.
Screw shitstop. You should steal the game before buying it from those scumbags.

PTS from those scouter levels.... never got any further than the snake lvl on the original xD I had hoped for a bit more from this new BT:)
This game deserves a buy. We need more games like this one. It is just pure fun specially if you have someone to play couch coop.
IDK we need more bad remakes? No thanks. I wanted a true battletoads sequel, but I guess the original creators are long gone.
Game looks fun. Not a fan of the dark queen’s new design.
I played it, she kinda thicc, not lying in a cutscene just, idk
Might half to check this out. I miss 3 dirty dwarves for sure!
I don't think I've ever made past the snake pit level in the original game, which was something quite heroic since none of my friends could make past the bike level. Damn hard game.
Been a fan since the first nes release. Hopefully I'll get a chance to try this out soon
