Swat Kats is supremely BADASS! It's one of the few shows that I enjoy as much at age 28 as I did at age 5. I love everything about it, particularly the art.
Yeah, I was like, wtf are you talking about copy Ninja Turtles lol? That show was pretty unique. Me and my cousin loved it!
Especially the theme music
Swats cats was the shit
I whole heartedly concur... accept at the perspective of a 37 year old, and a 14 year old. While at 14, I was far TOO COOL for cartoons at that point, I respected Swat Kats for neither pandering, nor patronizing, to its audience... so therefor I could rationalize still watching it. Stone protectors was lame as F#$& though... "Their stones of power glow..." I believe it was ostensibly an attempt to make Treasure Trolls (not just trolls mind you, as Russ trolls for instance rise above any of our preconceived heteronormative concepts or societal gender constructs, appealing to all children regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, nor sexual orientation [not religion though, as I imagine most fundamentalist religious sect will find them, like everything else, evil and blasphemous,] since they had shit like a knight, an astronaut, and a Dr. Frankenstein's Monster, so clearly they were too cool for school, but I digress...) male children who were more accustomed to playing with weaponized, overly muscled, action figure lines with bad attitude (see battitude) to the EXTREME! Long story short... Swat Kats were awesome... Stone Protectors? Not so much.
@@c.bretmiller6148 I read every bit of that. Help me.
Pirates Of Dark Water was a pretty decent show, the world they build of high seas sword and sorcery was really cool.
Yup, I think it's one of those shows like Gargoyles, with more adult themes and intelligent writing.
I agree it was my favorite show to watch after school to bad it got canceled
Better than the Genesis version.
Biker Mice from Mars was a fairly popular cartoon at the time. It had an extensive toyline and everything.
Swat Kats is such a criminally underrated show. I wish the game was better.
Pirate of dark water was good too
Preach, I had them all, and Vinnie's motorcycle.
The game is very fun on its own.
Real Monsters isn't unknown. It was so popular at one time, it even had a crossover in Rugrats.
Yeah it was popular back when it was one of the only shows on Nickelodeon, but easily one of the most forgotten Nicktoons. I mean, I know I try to forget it -- it's one of the ugliest and least-charming cartoons ever created.
+hip indeed You're thinking of TMNT.
i thought it was a good show. i got the complete series on dvd. =)
It had a very unique look to it and it was a much more well written show than the complete turd that was the TMNT cartoon.
The TMNT games are shit too btw.
Same with Eek The Cat, it ran for quite a while and was a large part of the FOX Kids era. I don't remember the game being that bad for a "guide the person" platformer, but it was unusually dark visually and really needed the brightness raised or something.
Heeeeyheyhey now. SWAT Kats has never died, its still great. :D
Sato yes. Yes it is. Still one of the best animated 90s cartoons with great episodes.
Yea I was like "huh?" when he said it was a forgotten series. I am pretty sure there have been talks about them bringing it back for a while now.
Sato-Couldn't agree more. Swat Kats was awesome!
what is swat kats? probably another shitty forgotten carton
it's clear to me you're a very novice troll, or just not good at it. I'm disappointed in your retort to say the least. You have got to do better than this man.
The Eek! the Cat game at least has an excellent soundtrack, that was probably worth mentioning.
It was made by Dean Evans... so of course it was!!
Probably its only good feature.
Aaahh!!! Real Monsters is a show that I still watch to this day... so underrated. The SNES game was the first cartridge that I got for the system. It’s unpolished, but I have soft spot for it.
SWAT Kats is pretty awesome as well!
what is funny is the Voice actor of Donatello is went to voice in Swat Cats and the Voice of Raph went to voice In biker mice from Mars. there's also some interesting degrees of separation with similar voice actors in Cowboys of Moo Mesa.
I loved Wild West Cowboys of Moo Mesa. I remember having some of their toys back in the early 90's
It had a great arcade game, and the characters went to guest star in the Tales of the TMNT comics.
SWAT Kats did get another season funded through crowdfunding so we may see more of it. But otherwise it was way ahead of its time and would have fit well with Adult Swim stuff or Toonami. The main issue with the show for the time was the violence and the mature tone (What happened to the civilians in the subway train?). Also could see it go well as an Ace Combat style game rather than what the SNES game was.
6Diego1Diego9 please specify why the animated show does for you.
I will not argue why the game is a mixed bag.
CyrusBluebird agreed
It's interesting that SWAT Cats of all things got a second life though crowd funding, me personally always wished Thundarr The Barbarian got revived, or even a good video game adaptation, which could have worked even in the 16bit era with how differently each of the 3 main characters could have played and solved problems. Kinda like Lost Vikings but a bit more action then puzzle solving.
I used to have a stone protector toy as a kid... squeeze the legs together and the stone in the middle of his chest lit up due to sparks flying around on the inside... now that I think of it, it was basically a torch lighter/fire starter covered in plastic... ahhh the early 90's
Yeah, I had all 5 of the Trolls... sadly
The Swat Kats show had the most amazing intro tune.
Ah Real Monsters wasn't a forgotten one off show at all. Also I hear people talk about biker mice from mars all the time lol thats some classic 90's cartoon action.
wasn't ahhh real monsters really popular? it was a huge part of my childhood
It was for sure. It lasted 4 seasons, had lots of merchandise and Nick was playing reruns well into the 2000s
I really liked the SWAT Cats cartoon. It was sick! I remember watching it during the night on Cartoon Network on Saturdays,
Biker Mice From Mars looks a lot like Rock 'n' Roll Racing. Guess they came out about a year apart.
...and before RnRR was RC Pro-Am on the NES. I've played all three of them and enjoyed my time with each of them. The car upgrade system in RC Pro-Am was tough. You had to collect letters on the track. Once you got what the game wanted, they upgraded your vehicle.
Nice! I think Biker Mice from Mare is the only one of those I actually watched back in the day. Part II with Widget, Mighty Max, The Tick, and Wild C.A.T.S. perhaps?
The first time I remember laughing so hard I started crying was when Widget and his watch were talking about eating "air biscuits". I'm trying not to giggle as I type this and I'm 40.
Anoher one was Ralph Wiggam and "whale egg".
Real Monsters was along the same lines as Ren & Stimpy, ran for 4 seasons and was great. You might have wanted to include Mighty Max though. Both have a Genesis version as well.
Even though it didn't get a SNES game COWboys of Moo Mesa did get an arcade game in the style of Sunset Riders. It's probably the one time I was introduced to the series through the video game first.
Cool video...One game I thought might have been on your list was Wild C.A.T.S they were originally a comic series but had a cartoon for a short time also.
Inspector Gadget was a quality Sunsoft platformer too.
But it was from Hudson Soft...
I remember that Biker Mice from Mars was actually kinda popular back then. When I was a kid I also remember that I had a neighbor who even had the toys of that show. This fat purple guy was the villain, IIRC.
Family Dog's video game came out after the show was cancelled. As a result the game was destined to fail commercially. On a side note, the series was created by Brad Bird of Pixar fame.
I was about to suggest Bucky O' Hare, but I forgot that was NES.
Bubsy also had a cartoon pilot too. It probably should not count though lol
That Bubsy pilot shouldn't have existed in the 1st place.
I loved Bike Mice and never get tired to remember the chapter where they go back in time and teaches king Arthur how to brew beer!
The graphics on that Trolls game! Pretty cool
Street Sharks is the most terrifying idea to ever exist. If sharks figure out how to go on land, I'm leaving the planet
except its teenagers that turn into sharks so not really
wasnt replying to you
***** Wait a second, they combined the most dangerous thing in the ocean with the most reckless thing on planet earth (a human teenager) and that doesn't terrify you?
Have you actually seen the show though? the characters are retarded
The Street Sharks aren't actually sharks though... Unlike the TMNT they were humans that were mutated into sharks. Street Sharks is actually a pretty good cartoon, along with Swatkats. And I would say that in no way was Swat Kats trying to cash in on TMNT like he claimed... its a completely different action Genre of cartoon.
biker mice from mars reminds me so much of rock n roll racing!!
Nice video brings back memories of all the shows I watched as a kid I had action figures of a lot of these characters like Biker Mice and Eek the Cat but I didn't even know they had their own video games except for Family Dog it's sad these cartoons were not well known they were good shows especially Pirates of Dark Water and Biker Mice
I remembered BMFM and decided to look for a SNES rom. I really liked it. Glad you agree!
SWAT CATS!
Pirates of Dark Water was awesome. They canceled the show before they got all 13 crystals. To this day that fictional planet is still under attack from the dark water.
I had Family Dog, never knew it was a cartoon, such a difficult game.
Family Dog originated from a Steven Spielberg TV show that was sort of similar to The Twilight Zone. Spielberg's show was called Amazing Stories. It consisted of a bunch of short stories, most of which were odd in nature. The Family Dog was one of those episodes(I believe it aired right around Christmas). It picked up enough popularity that it spawned a series that was extremely short lived & this game. The original episode of Family Dog was very strange. The dog itself was basically ignored at best & abused at worst, very Christmassy.
Dude play the Moo Mesa arcade game. It's a really solid beat-em-up.
Biker Mice From Mars is so good. One of my favourite games!
Funny how I have zero memory of Swat Cats but I remember watching Stone Protectors lol
Biker Mice from Mars was one of my favourite shows when I was a kid. The game was killer too. I can't believe they made a game of Family Dog.
I just found out Bobby's World was released on SNES.
i remember family dog, swat kats, eeks the cat, aaaah real monsters and biker mice from mars, but i have NEVER ever heard of stone protectors. that must have been one show that just went on and off instantly
Damn, I used to watch Biker mice from Mars, Aah real monsters and Eek the Cat. You're taking me waaaaayyy back and I love it!
Omg I totally remember all of these including stone protectors and biker mice from Mars
Well many of them were aired here in Brazil in the 90's.
I enjoyed Eek lots.
EEK! was great, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. “The Whining Pirates of Tortuga” with Eek as a kid was gold.
I'm surprised you didn't mention how ridiculously expensive Pirates of Dark Water is.
Biker Mice was huge here in Peru. It's one of the most popular games in the system.
I remember having a few stoner protector action figures, you pull the arm down and the stone on there chest sparks! They were AWESOME!!! I still have one of em actually haha
Ahh reel monsters was a great show and def not forgotten.. crum for life
I remember Stone protectors, the bad guy was voiced by the same guy who played Uncle Phil in The fresh prince of Bel-air. Some old cartoons gain a cult following in later years, it's bizarre but interesting.
I don't have any recollection of most of these shows, but then again, I didn't have cable when I was growing up (so my video game shows were mostly just Mario, Sonic, and that one Nintendo show where the kid could actually freeze time by hitting the pause button on a controller that he had attached to his waist... what the heck was that show again, I can't recall).
I do vaguely remember Ahhhh!! Real Monsters being a thing, as well as Family Dog. But I never saw any episodes of them. The rest I only know from your videos. Biker Mice from Mars sounds like a pretty decent game, I'll have to check that out.
There was a Stone Protectors game? I never even heard of that franchise until Robot Chicken did a parody about 10 years ago, and I was born in the early 80s.
Biker Mice was an awesome racing game. Reminds Rock n' Roll Racing a lot, which is awesome.
Speaking of obscure cartoons, anyone else old enough to remember BraveStarr? It was a Wild-West-Sci-Fi cartoon in a very similar vein to Cowboys of Moo Mesa, but with sort of a superhero twist.
It apparently did get a video game, though not for Snes.
I remember Stone Protectors, I even had one of the action figures. I didn't realize they had a game for it though.
Biker mice from mars and Swat Kats: The Radical Squadron bolth were pretty awesome cartoons & EEK! The cat was also a funny cartoon series
I use to watch Pirates of Blackwater at my grandparents house. I loved it.
That intro music and the first three tracks after that are amazing!
Swat Cats was great, really good animation for the time, great cast of villains. A shame it had so few eps.
Rocking opening too.
You got my instant like for featuring SWAT KATZ. Thank you.
Good video but área some more like "Rocko's modern life", "The Hurricanes", "King Arthur and The Knights of Justice", "Mighty Max" and "The Increíble Crash Dummies"
SWAT Kats and Pirates of Dark Water are AMAZING cartoons.
I had some of the street shark action figures when I was a kid. They were pretty cool. Well made imo.
I don't remember the show very much.
I liked the Biker Mice from Mars and Swat Cats cartoons. Never realized they had games for those sbows. I remember Pirates of Dark Water, but think I watched maybe only 1 episode. I barely remember what Eek the Cat cartoon was about.
Swat kats was raw badassary, and pirates of the dark water sure needs its own video, its my favourite beat'n'up only beneath cadillacs & Dinossaurs and Shadows over Mystara.
Been waiting for you to do biker mice from mars
Swat Kats and Pirates of Dark Water were great shows.
Total length of video: 282 secs.
Total length of "SNES Drunk": 2 secs.
.71% of the video was spent listening to "SNES Drunk."
Mighty Max would be a perfect fit for this episode
Yeah great cartoon. I've played the Genesis version of the game and did not care for it.
@@grimmbilly9263 Comic Book originally if I'm not mistaken
But Mighty Max was crazy popular
I used to own a bunch of the little mini playsets... boys version of Polly Pocket.
@@ValkyrieTiara The toys were, but not the cartoon.
Great idea for a video, Drunk! I owned a few of these and had no idea they had cartoons.
I'm glad you review kind of off-the-wall games.
Pirates of dark water is one of the best snes beat em ups. Period.
Mmm, SWAT Kats, before I saw the footage I was thinking it was the X-Men knock-off Wild Cats. Did that one have a game?
Eric Kelly Yes, but Wild C.A.T.s got better as it went along!
All i remember about Stone Protectors is kids in my elementary school bringing some of the toys with them
I need to find this "Avenger Penguins" show.
Biker mice was one of my favorite shows
I had no idea Stone Protectors had a cartoon. I played it once with a friend back in the day and we both hated it.
Typical Biker Mice storyline: bad guy plans something, Biker Mice stops it. Destroys bad guy HQ.
I remember watching Family Dog back in the day (I think 3 episodes were shown before it was pulled) and was excited to rent the game from Blockbuster. I don't remember much about the game (or the show for that matter) other than that the controls were awkward and the hit detection may have also been off, I did manage to beat it a few times before it had to be returned.
The Family Dog originated from a show Steven Spielberg had called "Amazing Stories". It was a show that was comprised of a bunch of short odd stories, in the same vein as The Twilight Zone. Family Dog was one of those episodes & spawned a series that died fast.
The cartoon was terrible IIRC.
Biker mice was a pretty cool saturday morning cartoon show.
Biker Mice lasted for 3 seasons and also had a reboot in 2006, it was all but forgotten...
What's funny is I recognize almost every single one of these shows, even the mentions at 0:45... although, to be fair, never heard of Avenger Penguins.
Stone protectors was actually released on Megadrive over seas too.
Dude, I remember when all these shows were on. Stone protectors, I had figures. The arm made the chest spark haha
AHH! Real Monsters looks like The Lost Vikings clone imo.
Don't forget Widget on NES and Super Widget on Super Nintendo.
King Arthur and the Knights of Justice was another forgotten cartoon.
Hadn't heard of either as cartoons, just as games. Thanks
Haha, I totally forgot about Stone Protectors, but remembered the others for sure.
I only recently found your channel and have been loving going through all the videos here. That being said, Swat Kats wasn't actually unheard of and was insanely popular by gross sales for toys and the series was pretty successful overall. Ted Turner is the reason it was canceled due to his belief that "violent" cartoons were going to cause kids to start hurting each other, ect.
The show is actually getting a reboot though! :D
I thought to post a list I had built up here in case you ever decide to make a part 2 one day. People might argue that some of these aren't too obscure, but in any case, it's perhaps best to use your own judgment as to what's obscure and what isn't:
Dennis the Menace
Hurricanes
Inspector Gadget
James Bond Jr
MTV's Beavis and Butt-Head
Super Widget
The Adventures of Mighty Max
The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends
The Tick
There's also Double Dragon V: The Shadow Falls, which is based on the 1993 Double Dragon cartoon that seems to be obscure, though I imagine that wouldn't matter since the Double Dragon series itself is rather well-known today. I also imagine you purposely didn't include the Hannah-Barbera cartoons (Jetsons, Yogi Bear, etc.) and anime.
I remember having ahh real monsters idk tho I feel like at my moms, but she had the sega at her house. Idr a lot but he kinda described it how I remember it, think I never beat the first level but I remember getting so lost and confused trying to see how to make them work together.
Ok played biker mice from mars back in the day, so much memories,
Eek the cat and aaaaah real monsters are forgotten one off shows?
I remember watching Stone Protectors early on Saturday mornings on CBS.
Stone protectors I dont remember as a show, but I DID have an action figure... the stone in his chest lit up or something when you moved his arm...
Dude Stone Protectors and Family Dog are the only cartoons on your list that weren't infamous
I loved all cartoons you mentioned they were my childhood
OK but Aaahh!!! Real Monsters was a nicktoon, it was at least as popular as Hey Arnold! or Doug
Fun fact: Biker Mice From Mars is very popular in Finland.
Their stones of power GLOW!!
Of all of those games, I still have my Biker Mice From Mars cart working fine, is a shame that back in the day I didn't get SWAT Kats when I got the chance, the rest I didn't knew about them, because of license issues, those games are hard to find and they're usually expensive, but is a good idea to give them a try if you have a chance to play them.
Biker mice from mars is a amazing game I loved it as a kid
Eek! The Cat deserves so much better. I loved that show.
A pity that Swat Kats and Pirates of Dark Water cost so much now. They were two of my absolute favorite toons.
megagrey I'd say the SWAT Kats game isn't worth it. It feels very Western, even kinda Euro-ish and just kinda meh. :/ A pity because the show was really awesome. And the music was great.
Pirates is a great game though. One of the better under the radar beat em ups for the SNES.
WAS awesome? I've got the made-to-order DVD sets for both tunes and they've held up beautifully.
Hahaha I'm sure it still is awesome. I just haven't seen the show in over fifteen years, but I'd still watch it ^_^
Back from when Cartoon Network was great.
Bikers mice is awesome, this was one of my favorite as a kid
