Never thought I would see the day Bob would be making a video with Scott.
Who the hell is Steve Jobs?
didnt know the guy from minecraft had a career, what he do?

I thought his name was woods
Wood Woodison. Not sure about the last name but his name is Wood yes.
Boy, BeatEmUps and Scott have really dedicated themselves to making enemies of the Xenoblade fandom.
The thing is that the appeal of Nintendo games is satisfying and easy to understand gameplay. The appeal of xenoblade is complex systems and more cutscenes per game than several movies combined, and I love that but I can easily see why Scott and Bob would despise that.
@@danielgrezda3339 the thing is, I don’t have a problem with Scott not liking RpGs or not having an interest in Xenoblade. I don’t think he’s required to. But Scott is one of many Nintendo focused TH-camrs who’s content has covered all aspects of Nintendo’s history and series’s, who just refuses to cover the series at all. It’s just kinda weird to me that Xenoblade is consistently the one series, the majority of the loudest voices in the Nintendo fandom just won’t touch. Keeping in mind that most of these TH-camrs were perfectly happy to try fire emblem three houses, a series very similar in tone and complexity to Xenoblade. And they’re happy to play souls games which are way harder to get into than Xenoblade is. I’m not trying to call anyone out. Scott, Arlo and their colleagues are some of my favourite content creators. It’s just always seemed weird that they refuse to touch this one series.
And it’s weird that Scott gets so defensive and sometimes antagonistic about it. He made a whole Christmas special passive aggressively insisting he doesn’t like rpgs. Which again is fine. He’s not required to like them, but he’s a majority Nintendo TH-camr, and people find it weird that he won’t talk in depth about Nintendo’s rpgs. He just refused to acknowledge any reason to put Xc1 as a game worth the praise beatemups gave it, and it just comes across as vindictive.
As for beatemups, he’s famously bad at Xc2. Like games journalist playing cuphead bad at it. I don’t think you should have to keep playing a game if you’re not enjoying it, but if your going to talk about a game critically, I feel you should at least try to meet it half way, and he wouldn’t even meet it a quarter of the way. He did a live stream where he spent over three hours, wandering around the first proper area of the game making no progress and blaming the game for it. That area can be confusing for first time players, because the compass is poorly implemented, but even the people who don’t like Xc2 agreed that he was taking the piss in that section. I’m not one for the “git gud” argument, but beatemups was not even trying to play the game right. Not to mention he really likes to perpetuate the idea that “Xc1 is the only great one” or “Xc1 is the best one”, which many in the community are sick to death of.
It just strikes me as odd that these guys are so uncharitable to this series and rpgs in general. For all the complaining Nintendo fans do about paper Mario not being a real rpg for the last few years, it’s weird how so many of them refuse to play real rpgs.
The Xenoblade 2 stuff could be pretty frustrating, but besides that Beatemups and Scott have had nothing but positive things to say.😅
Like Scott may not love it, but he always says good things in his videos. Beatemups loves everything around 2 and has said alot of great things about Xenoblade! Dunno about Bob though, but from all the videos I've seen he's more of simple and fun kinda guy. Anyways try not to see everything as an attack, even if the Xenoblade fan in me definitely understands *sometimes*
@MaxM210 The problem is most Nintendo youtubers fell in love with Nintendo for the simple fun games, and jrpgs just don't interest them like the other parts of Nintendo. Meanwhile there are the Nintendo fans that love jrpgs and many of them watch Nintendo videos, so the nintendo youtubers have to say something about Nintendo jrpgs or the fans will ask about it but the youtubers don't want to because they will be called out for how little they know. So you get this wierd game where they mention Nintendo jrpgs like pokemon and xenoblade but try to talk as little about it as possible to not make jrpg fans mad.
@@danielgrezda3339 I feel you’re focusing in on this idea of “simple games” and I’m not sure I follow. Simple is broad and pretty subjective term. I would not describe Zelda or fire emblem as “simple”. Botw and TOTK are in no way “simple”. Metroid and Pikmin are by no stretch simple. Pokémon is the most profitable IP in the world and those games are actual rpgs. Being less complex than a Xenogame doesn’t make a game “simple”. Nor would I say “simplicity” is the only appeal Nintendo games have. It feels like a pretty uncharitable view of Nintendo’s games if you ask me. I know Scott has said he likes shorter games, but he’s never gone on record as only playing simple games. Most of the old guard Nintendo TH-camrs played Nintendo games as kids, not just because they were simple. If anything the dominant critique of your average Nintendo game in the pre-switch era was that they were too simple and easy.
And again, I have no problem with Scott not liking rpgs. I just think he gets a little too defensive about it. And making Xc2 the video’s punchline in a manner that antagonizes a group that already gets a disproportionate amount of flack from the wider Nintendo community just feels unnecessary.
Scott and Wood doing a collab carries the same energy as the Jimmy Timmy Power Hours
FRRRR
Oh damn it does

Scott: apologies for not uploading a 2 hour video on main channel
Also scott: publishes 2 hour video on side channel
Scott doing collabs is like The Rock being in the same room as Dwayne Johnson.
Or seeing john cena
the xenoblade 2 slander is just annoying at this point
Metroid Dread might actually be my favorite Switch game the more I think about it. It may not be the biggest scope or budget, but the game feel, visual detail, exploration, challenge, atmosphere, revelations, SAMUS… as a Metroid game and being a huge Metroid fan, it just hits all the marks for me.
My personal favorite too
It's Top 5 Switch Games for sure. Breath of the Wild, Xenoblade 3, Tetris 99, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate are pretty tough to beat.
I've replayed it more than any switch game, I've beaten dread mode and I love getting faster runs
@@adrian.diloca6686 nice! I only managed to get a few bosses into Dread mode before giving up lol but I did go beat it again on hard mode, which I rarely ever do with games so that speaks to how much I enjoy it. It was a very rewarding experience. Now I just work toward 100 percenting my original save when I get in the Metroid mood.
@@jacobmonks3722 Oh yeah. I wouldn’t object to most of the games they put over it. Especially BotW, Odyssey and Smash. Those games are just phenomenal. IDK if I’d prop Tetris 99 *that* high, but it is always a fun time. And I actually still have not played LM3 😭
Really want a Scott the woz video where he is in a saw like room forced to play fire emblem while his friends have to make actual tough decisions of some sort next Halloween
Im really disappointed y'all didn't rate pokemon mystery dungeon higher especially when giving the BDSP remake so much criticism for being a bad remake. PMD DX is the complete opposite of BDSP it has a gorgeous artstyle, adds more gameplay mechanics, added mega evolutions, and shiny pokemon, and more post game content the gameplay format doesn't get too repetitive since it's a rougelike where the layout of the dungeon and items changes ever floor. Unlike BDSP adding nothing of value to the base game despite claiming to be a "remake".
They don’t like the core game. And Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are remakes.
@@felipee5239 mystery dungeon is a remake too.
It brings me so much joy to know that scott adores 51 clubhouse games as much as I do
Such a gem.
I would love to see a part 2 of this. Missing alot of games since you did the list.
"Xenoblade and fire emblem are the punching bags."
These are two of my favorite franchises. Its saddening to know so many people dont get it
Classic xenoblade fan syndrome
So, I play Pokken competitively, and AM one of the people scott says don't exist who vouches for it as an amazing fighting game (and yes, it IS a traditional fighter) and that also has cool stuff for more general Pokemon fans (plus i'll list useful resources for people interested.) TL;DR It does a great job adapting Pokemon moves with references to the main series games, as well as giving each Pokemon a personality through their animations;, and from a fighting game perspective, the game is extremely well balanced, has a lot of playstyle variety and room for player expression, and has a big emphasis on neutral play as well as fundamentals and adaptation due to some of it's unique mechanics.
As I said, firstly, the game does an amazing job fleshing out normal pokemon moves into very well animated attacks and sequences: A lot of people wish the mainline titles had better animations, and I think this can scratch that itch: You see things like Suicuine using it's trendrils for attacks, or Chandfelure unfurling it's arms, and blatoise dynamically pulling it's limbs into it's shell or firing water out of them like a jetpack to move around. This is all often done in a way so in a way that calls back to the official games: Mewtwo's Hyper beam, for example, has a long recovery (or "endlag" if you're a Smash player) period where he catches his breath afterward to mimic the 1 turn recovery period the mainline games have. Chandelure's hex is adapted into a command grab that does more damage the more debuffs the enemy had, mirroring it doing more damage to status'd enemies in the main games. There's even callbacks to pokedex entries and the anime: Gardevoir's super here fires a black hole like in her dex entries, while Lucario's bone rush appears as it does in the anime, for example. Even the stages have a lot of neat details and references: one of my favorites is that the mirror in the Haunted House stage sometimes flashes and you can see Giratina and the Distortion World inside of it!
By extension, this also means each Pokemon has a super distinct personality expressed through their animations, which also fills in different fighting game archetypes: Sceptile is animated and characterized like a Ninja, and fittingly has leech side and seed bomb traps, leaf blade acts like a iaijutsu katana slash, he can use a substitute wooden log, he has leaf shurikens he can throw out that float in midair as space control moves, and leaf storm is an anti-air command grab that leads into an izuna drop, all of which are common move types for Ninjas in fighting games, and gives him a mid range lockdown toolkit where he limits the enemies mobility with his traps and shuriken, can catch the enemy at a distance as they're navigating around those hazards with leaf blade or giga drain (a variable range command grab), and if they try to jump you can go for leaf storm. Some other fun examples is that Weavile tries to act edgy and cool, but secretly is really cute and will laugh or dance around and then try to hide it. Scizor is animated like a mecha, with some of his intro animations calling back to the classic gundam launch sequence, he gets jet boosters out of his wings in his run/hover stance, can charge up hiw claws like cannons, etc.
This discussion of character archetypes segues nicely into talking about Pokken as an actual fighting game!
To be clear, Pokken IS a competitive, traditional fighter: Characters have completely unique movelists with different inputs (though most of them are just a direction and a button, there's no quarter circles and the like, which keeps them approachable when starting out), there is an attack height system (tho it works differently from in most FG's), you have things like cancels, just-frames (moves getting better when timed just right), even street fighter IV focus attacks and FADC, concepts like oki (the mindgames around when a player is getting back up), footsies, corner pressure, etc is all still applicable, and so on.
As a fighting game, as I said, the game is very well balanced: For a long time, the community never bothered with making tier lists, simply because it wasn't needed, and while people do have them and we've made a few community voted lists, overall tiers aren't a major part of the scene: Even characters widely agreed to be in the bottom 5 or bottom 3 in the game like Blastoise or Empoleon or Blaziken still show up in the top 8's of major events and tournaments with some frequency, while other low tier characters like Gardevoir, Suicuine, Charizard, etc show up very, very often: Almost the entire cast is viable even at high levels of play.
Playing each character also feels very unique as well: This is, of course, something every good fighting game does well, but Pokken especially gives it's characters a lot of wildly different tools that make the fundamental gameplan and options each character has totally distinct, even compared to other great fighting games. There's also enough versatility in their movesets and options that two high level players using the same character often use them in totally different ways (Player expression), something added by the game's phase shift mechanic, which i'll touch on below. Characters also have distinct mechanics and systems: This can be as basic as Weavile's fastfall or Charizard's double jump, moedrate complexity abilities like Braixen's ability to support/assist cancel and build her support gauge and having stacks of enhancements; or as complex as, say, Darkrai, whose moveset actually allows for full combos even inside the 3d field phase and his normals place traps, and can enter a special buffed install state if he enters the 2d/duel phase with a specific move,. Or Aegislash, who is a stance character that changes his entire moveset to be zoning based and gains super armor in his shield form, but also gains more buffs which enable extra just-frames in his sword form the more he switches between stances, alongside having a unique parry.
Pokken's most unique gameplay elements are it's phase shift mechanic and the way it handles attack heights, which both add depth, but in a way arguably helps approachability, as long as you know how they work (sadly, the game never explains either well): Firstly, wheras in other games, height exists as a way for an offensive player to bypass and punish blocking to open up a defensive player by sweeping a standing enemy or using an overhead or a crouching one, In Pokken blocking is height universal, and attack heights are used to allow moves to bypass and punish each other, even during their active frames. This means that height is most often a tool to get a reversal: For a defensive player to predict or react to what the offensive player is doing, and to turn the tables and then start a combo or break back to a neutral state (the state of the match when niether player is under pressure and both are trying to get a hit in). This means less time is spent with one player stuck in the corner, and there's more chances for both players to act. This also means there's not quite as much to keep track of when blocking as a new player, but there ARE still height mixups (If Player 1 expects Player 2 will use a move on X height, P1 can go for a move on Y height to punish it, but P2 can predict P1 knows that and go for a move of Z height instead, etc)
As far as phase shifting: People obviously already know that Pokken switches between a 2d and a 3d phase, but 2d to 3d shifts actually happens based on a hidden guage/meter, the PSP guage, which fills up the more successful hits land: Different moves add more or less points. On the flip side, 3d to 2d shifts happen off of any heavy hit or most specials. What this means is that on a basic level, it acts as a system to prevent infinite combos in the 2d phase, and knocks you back to the 3d phase, resetting the state of the match back to a neutral situation where neither player is pressuring the other (with some exceptions). But it also means that at a high level of play (New players, don't worry about this!), players can actually manipulate when shifts occur based on altering up their combo routes and move choices: If you're just going for high damage, you'll want to alter your combos to end right on the shift so the shift doesn't interupt it before your high damage ender (sorta like how you'd change your combo route based on the scaling of what your starter was, except Pokken has that, PLUS you're changing it based on what the PSP guage value is WHEN you landed your starter). But you can also do things like go for a weaker or less safe combo that builds less PSP to keep the enemy in the corner under pressure longer, or as a combo reset; or you can go for a combo that shifts faster if YOU want to get back to the 3d phase either due to the matchup or to escape pressure if you convert off a reversal, or if you simply want the health regen/meter causing a shift brings. Some moves also reduce or reset the PSP guage, so there's a resource management aspect as well
As you can see, both of those systems do a lot to allow the match to return to and to emphasize the "neutral state" of the game, when niether player is locked down and both are trying to get a hit in, and also to promote wider use of moves beyond just what does optimal damage.
All that said, if the game seems cool or that explanation made it sound interesting, I hope people check the game out! You can find more competitive resources on the game's supercombo page, while the main community disk0rd can be found just by googling that chat service plus pokken: it's still active, as is the game's online, even if it's not as big a scene as some other fighting games. It runs some regular online tournaments, as do other community figures like Devlin, Shadow_MewtwoX, as well as one by Road to Greatness, etc.
I ain't reading all that
Jeez just make a yt vid lmao that’s wayyy too much to read
Exactly.
sry repeat that, wasn't listening
I’m not reading all that. Congratulations or I’m really sorry for you
Sometimes I get this feeling that Scott plays video games but sometimes doesn’t really “get” video games.
He's a boardgame gamer that plays video boardgames for the convenience it offers is my impression of him
That's an interesting take, could you expand on it?
@@_Conzo_ I feel like a more accurate representation of his take would be “Scott has massive blind spots to certain video game genres”
@@bart3736 Obviously everyone has their own taste. You gotta watch this video from the perspective of "A platformer fan and a hack and slash fan try to rank every switch game as unbiased as possible". I honestly would have preferred if they gave their own opinions and ranked games accordingly. (rather than try to be a neutral party)
Videos like this are almost impossible to do because when it comes down to it, there will never be an unbiased 'ranking' as the ranking process inherently depends on the person ranking it. Everyone has their own tastes so one person's ranking will never be the same as another's. Heck, growing up, I hated rpgs as a kid and only played platformers and action games, but now I love rpgs lol. Just goes to show how volatile tastes are
Good list. 👍 It’s WILD seeing this before TotK came out, and Metroid Prime Remastered, Super Mario Wonder, Pikmin 4, Super Mario RPG Remastered and F-Zero 99! 😂
I’m sure there’s others I’m missing but this year has been good eating for Nintendo fans. 😊🙂
W I LD
Splatoon 3 is over a year old and isn’t on there so there’s probably a lot you didn’t mention.
And don't forget the brilliant xenoblade 3 future redeemed dlc. Easily top 3 best switch game.
This video was made in September 2022 for the trading cards 💀💀💀
One of my favorite TH-camrs with one of my least favorite ones… yay?
Literally he's a man child who click baits screams about it and has no actual opinions of his own. Lots of people are probably too new to know when he used to argue and yell at people in his comments over that lol
@Decidueye6 Thanks I guess lol.
What’s wrong with the other guy?
Wood loving FE3H but not knowing there are 4 paths in the base game not just 3...
Dude isn't genuine with a single thing he says.
I truly cannot believe how Pokémon Sword and Shield got placed so high. That’s crazy!
36:47 Okay, idk I wanted to add on that ILCA who made BDSP is the main studio behind Pokemon Home, so they have and continue to work closely with Game Freak. I’m also pretty sure they worked as support studios for a lot of big RPGs in the past, but I might be misremembering something. Pair that with the fact that Game Freak had two other games they were developing at the time, and I think that’s why they outsourced BDSP to ILCA.
1:40:20 Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Rescue Team DX is one of the Top-3 Pokémon games on the Nintendo Switch, maybe even the best, and doesn't deserve this slander. =(
Strong agree. I like SV better personally but like, it’s an excellent game. Fantastic alternative for those who don’t like the mainline games
Putting MDDX below flip wars is a crime, I almost flipped out when I saw that.
I knew he would do Xenoblade 2 dirty.
Based and deserved
I think Xenoblade 2 is better than most give it credit for. The problem is that all the great stuff is in the second half of the game, after the first half of the game bored you and/or pissed you off.
I still love it though. That second half just makes all the bullshit worth it. It may be the epitome of "It gets good 40 hours in," but Xenoblade can actually deliver a payoff that makes even the most tedious and sluggish gameplay in the beginning feel purposeful. And who knows, you might not actually dislike the first half!
Don't forget about the character designs. Personally I like the game, but theres no denying that there are some designs that are "too Japanese" (I imagine you know what I mean). I managed to tolerate it and in the end I enjoyed the game, but obviously not everyone has the same level of tolerance for that kind of things. Luckily it was something that was greatly corrected with Xenoblade 3.
@@Fran_622 Character design is a thing, but I feel like it's so miniscule in importance to what the actual big problems are with the game. I, and I think most people, can get around anime nonsense as long as the story and gameplay are solid.
@@Fran_622lil bro is scared of tits
@@jacobmonks3722I wanted the game but didn't get it because I knew I could never play it on the TV and I wasn't using handheld mode much at the time
This game needs a definitive edition so badly 😅
There's so many little things that put people off a ton. The combat is really good once you know what you're doing- it even feels satisfying early game with things like auto-attack canceling and using deserts to supercharge cooldowns! The way markers were confusing as hell, the tutorials and the systems are too much (or non existent) at times, the art style is generic anime, etc! Maybe in like 5 years we'll get that remaster 😅
I watch both these guys, Wood and Scott. So awesome to see them colab!
Xenoblade 2 hating never ceases to amaze me... it's one of the best game of this generation. It does have some flow on the way it explain it's mechanics, but is one of the best experience on the market
Dude who has only played Xenoblade:
@@Geeler dude who hasn't played Xenoblade :)
The biggest don't judge a book by it's cover game I ever played lmao
I can both agree that's it shit in 50% of what it does but it's incredibly high highs still make it one of my favourite games of all time
Xenoblade 2 is still a very flawed game, mostly gameplay wise for me such as the insane length of the tutorials, slow ass gameplay early on, a gacha system to summon blades, and FIELD SKILLS (one of the worst ideas i've ever seen in a game). The torna dlc's community quest also sucked just to unlock the finale. Story and characters were fine even though some characters had their cringe moments. All of that being said, I still enjoyed XB2 but obviously not as much as 1 or 3
@@infernoROBOYou summed it up perfectly. Fuck field skills. And I have to elaborate that the music and villains were really good.
The point about Brilliant Diamond Shining Pearl getting outsourced to a studio that's only made 1 mobile game is just plain wrong. ILCA has been a support studio for some of the biggest and best games of the 2010s (Yakuza 0, Nier Automata, Dragon Quest XI, etc.) and absolutely have the ability to make a high quality Pokemon game if given the time and money.
Honestly BDSP are pretty decent games.
@@friendlyotaku9525 people like to shit on it for being a 1:1 recreation of the originals, but that’s what the community wanted at the time and I feel like people forget that. Love those games

These types of videos have been awesome Scott
Man Scott is starting to be the king of collabs lately
Did you not see Borderline Forever
@@androidoficeandfire9667that video barely has any actual collabs, everything else is just fanservice cameos
AS LONG as he DOESN'T appear with Mike 'Racist' Matei, he'll still be my favourite TH-camr of all time.
@@leighdappatechnically he did collab via proxy by appearing on Cinemassacure
@marsmugio: As long as there isn't a full video collab, I'll be fine.
Man they're huge switch fans, all the games got S tier
Scott has a lot of opinions on games he hasn’t played
“Collecting video games is my favorite hobby, playing them is a close thirteenth” -Scott the Woz
That's his biggest problem as a TH-camr, has plenty of opinions for things he never took time to research. Or he'll play something for 2 hours, say it wasn't good overall, and never go back
@@NeverSaySandwich1 he'll talk and write about it for more time than he's played it
Especially rpgs
Putting xenoblade 2 as the worst nintendo switch published title ever legit offends me bro 💀💀
It’s annoying
The really sick thing, these guys literally own every one of these games.
Doesn't everyone
there's several games on the list scott hasn't played
In ranking video, it would be more appropriate if they'd actually played all these games
@@bigchumbus You really own every game on this list? There are some very, very strangle releases on here. I mean hey, if you got the money go for it. Me? I buy games I will play for more than 30 mins.
Most of which will never be played.
No point in owning things you'll never use.
Love this video…thank you for doing this!
You should do a video talking about achievements in video games (I couldn't find one at least), I think you'd have an interesting take on them
I was thinking of this too! Scott never talked about achievements, trophies or progression in gaming, and it would be even more awesome to know his opinions since no Nintendo console to this moment has achievements, wouldn't it be nice to the upcoming "switch2" to have it? Retroachievements could get into the video theme too.
Nice idea bud!!!
Ah yes beatem up the click bait TH-camr with no actual opinions of his own
POGGERS the mashup i never knew i wanted!
Go Vacation should go higher. The minigames weren't very deep, but it had four entire areas to explore, and it was really fun to go around with friends. They also had collectables, and you could climb every house. Granted, I only played the Wii version, but Switch should be the same but with higher resolution and less frame drops. It was a really fun time waster when I had friends over.
Skip to the end to see their placement on Xenoblade 2
even as someone who really likes the game I gotta admit that was funny I imagine their real spot for it is just right below torna
Literally have had one of the worst days and this upload makes me so happy to see. Thanks Scott ❤
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@theGhost349why are you like this
sorry dude my cat mom brother sister died today have some sympathy@@PixelatedCatMan

The collab we have been waiting for
Scott's gotta get me on the DS ranking video that console is my bread and butter lmao
These videos were made last year
@mr.stuffdoer8483 lmao I'm kidding anyway I highly doubt Scott would get some random 600 sub game reviewer on his channel whether he was still recording these tier lists or not
I liked Wood until he "humbled" bragged about getting the Zelda OLED switch before launch acting like he didn't want to be asked about it and then made a video about how he "faked" it when it was actually the real thing
Some REAL youtuber scumbag tactics for views and clout on that one🤮
he also milked the fuck out of getting dropped out of nintendo's ambassador program thing. i swear every other day he would upload more about it. that turned me away from his channel so fast.
also this video was pretty fun to watch, i didnt know scott was this much of a douchebag lmao
1:42
Persona fans when they see a calendar: "Oh my god is that a persona 5 reference??????"
OMG I just finished the mainline Mario tierlist, and now I see this. I am blessed.
That’s awesome that the Nintendo Switch has put out nothing but S tier games!
Nintendo Switch just has perfect games!
Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival
I literally thought to myself like an hour ago "I wanna watch another Scott ranking video" and then this gets posted, I manifested it
About ten times throughout this video he asks Scott what he thought of the jrpg they’re talking about and Scott just goes 🫠 everytime and I love how beatemups never catches on 😂
How long ago was this recorded 😭 cause they still calling it “breach of the wild 2” this is HELLA old
Skip to the end to skip wood
THIS IS THE ONE I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Will you update this video through the life of the switch? It’s literally helping me decide which games to buy. I know this video is 5 months old and now I’d like to know where other games rank with these, like Mario wonder, Mario RPG, pikmin 4, thousand year door (when it releases), tears of kingdom, Metroid prime, etc…
I think I know where Xenoblade 2 will end up
What a commitment to rank all of these🎉
I personally believe that everybody who has spoken Mystery Dungeon slander should get a least a years worth of jail time.
(Nah, but I'm fine with anybody not liking the series, just as long as you're not a jerk to people who like it, I won't be a jerk to people who don't like it. :)
Sorry i had to delay the 2 hour switch video here's a 2 hour long video anyway
This is a dream collab
It’s cool seeing Scott cross over to Woods, it’s always nice to see some forestry :)
Wood is kind of a baby about shit and gets annoying quickly.
Haven't watched beatemups in a over a year maybe 2..started to not be my thing, and I'm a big Nintendo fanboy. But something about his videos started to feel more and more disingenuous
Yesir. Love this tier lists.
My first exposure to BeatEmUps was on Splatoon 3 launch he was streaming it. Playing Rainmaker he couldn’t get himself out or C rank as he continually fed into the enemy team. He’d die like 10+ times and get only 2 kills. He would somehow paint slightly more than anyone else on his team and because of that, he thought his teammates were to blame for the losses and that he was the best player in the lobby. When I pointed out that this was a flawed understanding of the game, he called me a Warzone player and blocked me.
This was my first time even hearing about him, and just from the first impression in this video I'm inclined to believe you
Now THIS is the crossover we needed
I don't think people give Pokken much credit. I think it's one of the best and most fun fighting games we've had in the past few years.
Scott, please, I'd love to listen to all of these at the gym or on the metro. Upload these to a podcasting site!
For people who play Pikmin with normal controllers the switch Pikmin games were a huge step up with the lock on
another hour+ long video? LETS FUCKING GOOOOO
I wonder how long ago this was recorded? Based on some of the comments they said and the fact that there’s multiple games missing that have been released over the last year including TOTK and Pokémon scarlet and violet ect.. makes me think this was done over a year ago in 2022 sometime but nice to see these two work on this list together.
Prior to September 2022
It's in the description. It was released apparently filmed September 2022
Daemon x Machina was great for those of us who wanted a new armored core before ac6 was announced
i ran into wood once at a shoping mall in north texas of all places.
the best nintendo youtuber and the most self-pitying, arrogant, annoying nintendo youtuber in the same video.
Agreed. When I was younger, I liked watching wood but I've realized he seems like a real cocky jackass a lot of times
Woah! Such a good collab!
Great collab guys
Ive never heard a more wrong description of warriors games until beatem ups started talking
It's been almost 6 years and people who haven't even played it or don't even like JRPGs to begin with still hate on one of the Switchs best game (Xenoblade Chronicles 2) for no reason other than it being not like your typical Nintendo game like Mario
I LIKE YOUR ATTITUDE
Based
I love xenoblade 2 but it's not the best switch game or best xenoblade game. That being said, the haters are drowning in ignorance.
It's the worse xenoblade game.
IT’s Ranking time!!!
new video to listen to while falling asleep
i love how labo was the thresh hold of wether a switch game was even worth your money for like half the video lol.
Man, my list would be pretty different because I just don't replay games at all. I love new stuff and there is so much new stuff all the time I wouldn't even have time to go back and play stuff again. Onward, to the future!
Why wood of all people? Not a bad choice but confusing
He fits in that Nintendo TH-camr category
@@Dark-xy6vu but still
Their chemistry seemed very off.
@@Gengars_Choice_Pokemon yeah that too
@@Gengars_Choice_Pokemon I don't think they meshed well at all. It felt like Scott was taking too much time to explain his thoughts because of his tendency to ramble and repeat himself, while Wood was taking not enough time, throwing out things like 'Fire Emblem meets Persona' and 'so much content' without elaborating. It was like Scott wanted to discuss the game while Wood wanted to sell/not sell us on it
Man when it came to picking where the games go, I feel that wood couldn’t get an opinion in edgewise. Kinda of felt like Scott just took it over and Wood was along for the ride
As a wood subscriber for years, I always wonder, has he ever talked about beat ‘‘em ups?
"thats all that there is too the game is the fun gameplay, thats like all it has." you mean. the singular most important part of any video game every?
The collab of all time
Scott would probably pass out if wood showed him a emulator
Are we gonna ignore the fact that Scott’s Piplup is called Pills, Yup
AS THE SOLE DEFENDER OF FIRE EMBLEM WARRIORS I AM SICKENED BY HOW YOU ACCURATELY DESCRIBED ITS PERFECT LEVEL OF MID.
Oh hey, my favorite card flashback!
Holy hell, the dream team has finally begun to form.
Why was this released so long after it was filmed?
STRETCHERS WAS TOP 5 COUCH CO-OP EXPERIENCES ON THE SWITCH! Loved ittttt
