@@withnoname31 lol, my personal nightmare scenario was when I relied solely on one savestate, entered a raider base and had a choice to go left or right... both options led to an instant game over becauae i hadnt spoken to a certain NPC so I had to restart the game.
If the game had a quest tracker so you could return to the game and still know what you''re doing it would be amazing. The story was great and I loved the ship designs. When you got into late game and you could hammer the enemy with your entire fleet it felt amazing.
infinite space is one of my favorite games of all time, and it is such an epic and underrated gem of a game. Great exclusive of the ds, highly recommend
Was looking forward to this video and gotta say you nailed it, got pretty much all the heavy hitters that somehow flew under the radar. I'm extremely happy that I've managed to already know and have owned the majority of these games when they were new. A major exception for awhile was Solatarobo, which I my incredible girlfriend got for me this later birthday knowing it was a title I really wanted for my collection (and to play of course!).
4 heros of light, children of mana, spent many a summer afternoon playing them along with 7th dragon, golden sun dark dawn and the re release of dragon quest 4,5, and 6
Same here. I went back and am currently playing through Riviera The Promised Land, then I’ll check out Yggdra Union before diving back into KitN (meow).
I remember seeing Blue Dragon for sale at Walmart back when it was released, and the only reason I didn't buy it (as a massive Dragon Quest and RPG fan) was because they were selling it for $90! I still don't know why, because it had only released the year before. I price checked it with the lady working there as well, and ended up using my allowance for Dragon Quest IX instead, which was a good choice imo
Great list! I'm a DS rpg collector and have many of these titles. Missing Solatorobo, Black Sigil (which many reviewers diss it), Blue Dragon and Infinite Space.
@@thatvideogamesshow Losing hope. Had Solatorobo twice and sold them (like 12 years ago). I'm gonna bite the bullet and buy Infinite Space without a case and manual....
I need some MASSIVE help here So, when I was a kid my dad bought me a 3ds, at some point we got an r4 that had a bunch of games (even in Chinese), one of those was an rpg in which you could customize your character and it was based on sprites. The logo that you could see in the r4 menu was some sort of purple eye
*Knights in the Nightmare.* Pretty sure that was the game I spent most hours in my life. Took around 2 hours to go through tutorial, still took more than 2 loops(both campaigns) to finally understand how the game works. 3rd, 4th loop on Nightmare difficulty was definitely a tough journey but was fun. Even tried weird stuff like raising L.I/C.Is of characters I loved and used most - with mediocre stats - up to around 80~90s. Furthermore edited a LOT of Pause Talk database in Japanese Wiki.(DHE world guidance book did NOT have non-Knight Pause talk data) I know it was ported to PSP and eventually remastered in modern systems, though I still prefer playing through DS Touch Screen. Thank god modern ports do not have that much of extra contents.
i have high hopes that the sonic team finally make a new sonic rpg game for modern home consoles as it has so much so potential and plus the sonic team are very interested in making a sonic rpg for home consoles.
I have a 2DS XL I rarely ever played with 3 DS games in the closet I didn’t pay mind to from a yard sale (cause why would I want to play older games, I thought). I’m watching this and one name sounds familiar. The games are Bakugan, Ben 10 Vigilax, and Solotorobo.
Black Sigil has an infamous flaw in its encounter rate. Do yourself a favor and grab the Reasonable Encounter Rate hack. Reduces encounter rate and increases xp to offset the difference. Man, Sting had a trilogy of the most ambitious games I've ever seen. Def need to check out Dark Brotherhood sometime, the timed combat looks like fun.
Probably the biggest omission by this point is Nostalgia - that definitely was a fun RPG on the DS that keeps getting forgotten. Infinite Space on this list is probably the one I had the best time with, still in my alltime top 10 - Strange Journey is great, but with it getting a 3DS port, I wouldn't exactly call it forgotten (Sonic Chronicles was deservedly forgotten though - man, what a bad game that was). Beyond that, nice to see Black Sigil getting a mention, overall a nice time, even if the encounter rate in that one was absolutely atrocious.
Strange Journey is an outstanding dungeon crawler. Incredible atmosphere, original setting, very fun mechanics. The Mana game and Black Sigil were disappointing however.
No shoutouts today? I guess he was in a hurry. Good video as always. Lots of - as the title suggests - hidden and forgotten stuff. The DS had an amazing library.
Damn ff 4 lights was such wasted potential. The game looks incredible, set pieces were phenomenal, the battle system was it greatest peak and fail because they went for quabtity over quality and then the whole class system gets boring fast when applied to combat... Still good tho
@@Chelaxim BD is pretty good, yes. But for the title on DS, my money was all on FF when I got that game, when playing and exploring... Then the grind came
A mostly accurate list, but I disagree with 4HoL and SMT Strange Journey being on the list, personally. The former being the progenitor of Bravely Default and the latter being one of the best Megaten games, despite being largely replaced by its 3DS enhanced port, hardly constitute a forgotten RPG. That said, it's true both Black Sigil and Infinite Space are both brilliant but flawed, and deserve remakes.
The wizard of oz game had the unfortunate of having the controls attached to one of the worst ideas the touch screen had. Sorry but the game is amazing but I rather have a mod that makes the touch scroll ball optional
The Sonic game had a lot of potential and can be fun for sure.. However, I'd never play it seriously based solely on the fact that it was intended to have multiple sequels and thus, the story is never completed.. Can't justify time spent on something that can't end..
I've been experiencing issues with the plugin since upgrading Final Cut Pro unfortunately and it doesn't render properly. Have emailed the developers and hopefully it will be updated soon!
FF four heroes of light is a bad game, I like the crown system is ok and the graphics are great for a rpg but the combat is simply bad, mobs are easy or broken, they can just KO all of the heroes in the first turn if you're not over lvl and lost hours if you forget to save every time you can. Black Sigil have a good story but the random encounters are the problem here, in some maps you can't move two pixels in a row because a random battle.
Strange Journey is overlooked? *looks at the fact they did a remake with extra content while certain other games Atlus did, dont.* i...dont agr-- [video goes to next game] Ok, Sonic Dark Brotherhood is forgotten for VERY good reason. The battle system is its only highlight..the story had potential, but fell flat. ...i need to play Infinite Space again..
How do say blue dragon is a copy of ffcc but not the abomination that is black sigil lol. Theres a reason why it was forgotten that game has way to many flaws that its wild they released it in its state along with being a clear heavy rip off of chrono trigger But sonic brotherhood is a game thay doesnt get enough love and currently playing solatorobo as that game is a prime example of a gem
Ch of mana is way way too easy. The bosses are pathetic. Basically most mana games after Trials SNES version are like that. Even Trials remake is nerfed a lot.

Why have you stopped putting the game name in the top right? That was always such a big help if you missed the title card before each game.
Absolutely agree. Need those game titles running the whole time

More to come!
Can you please:
1. Put the game name back on the footage
2. Add chapters with the game name in each section
Infinite Space is a definite hidden gem.
Deserves way more attention!
The story is really something. Some moments in the game are still haunting me to this day.

Knights in the Knightmare is one of those rare games that even years later, you can confidently say ‘I’ve never played anything else like it’
infinite space is one of my favorite games of all time, and it is such an epic and underrated gem of a game. Great exclusive of the ds, highly recommend
Couldn't agree more!
I love the Wizard of Oz one. It's definitely a special one.
Agreed, it's both relaxing and challenging at times. I loved it
Such a charming adventure!
I miss having the game name over the gameplay so I know what game I'm looking at.
Agreed
Thanks for giving me the nostalgia & suggestions man❤
keep up the good work😊
My pleasure man!

Love your videos, man. Helps to discover games that were overlooked and done so in the way you do it.
Glad you like them!
These are becoming some of my favorite vids. Thank you for dropping so many 🙏
More on the way =)
So many rpg but infinite space 6:53 looks so interesting, there is no many rpg based on space 🤔🤔🤔
I'll check it out
It’s well worth it. I hope you enjoy it!
Highly recommend, maybe check out the reviews first.
Knights in the Nightmare looks great. I must say I tried it though and could not understand much of it. Someday I’ll give it a second chance.
It's for sure quite a lot to get your head around, but when you do it's a really good game. I had trouble myself for a while haha
I've tried it on DS, then tried it much later on PSP. Think I'm going to give it another go as it seems like something I should love.
Same here. I went back and am currently playing through Riviera The Promised Land, then I’ll check out Yggdra Union before diving back into KitN (meow).
No joke it takes 2 hours to comprehend through Tutorial. Even that was not enough and I got the hang of it around 3rd loop on Nightmare difficulty.
@@CB-L Is the game worth investing the time to learn?
i love these videos sm please never stop doing them!!!
Casually watching this while playing Pokemon Conquest (totally underrated game btw). Nice video!
Love me some Pokemon Conquest. Hope you're having fun!
Pokemon conquest is incredible
Oh hey! Those pig monsters at 1:15 become Truff in Bravely Default 2

I'd choose DQ IX over it any day. You made the right choice for sure!
I love the simplicity of FF 4 heroes of light. Square enix made the successor Bravely Default but it just feels different.
I can still remember the ending of Infinite Space. Definitely an underrated gem
One of the greats!
Great list! I'm a DS rpg collector and have many of these titles. Missing Solatorobo, Black Sigil (which many reviewers diss it), Blue Dragon and Infinite Space.

+1 for Infinite Space. The story is kinda meh, but the game itself was so much fun. Ambitious is an understatement!
Knights in the Nightmare is the craziest game I have ever played and I have never played anything like it ever again. So good.
I got a decent bit into black sigil, really decent game - but the amount of broken features held the game back for me iirc.
Alex on thumbnail is from strange journey redux on 3ds. Strange journey from DS does not have her.
That's definitely not Alex in the thumbnail
These videos keep feeding my backlog.

Forgotten DS RPG time with TVGS another amazing video
Thanks mate!
Strange Journey was Super Brutal Difficulty if you are not prepared plus CO-OP attacks are useful.
I loved the second recommendation, it reminded me of Chrono Trigger;
very good video, man, thank you.
Glad to hear!
The 60 fps effects are so nice.
There's a couple in here I've never heard of that I'm going to have to check out now.
Infinite Space is siiiiiick.
Infinite Space was so so good.
I wish it got a sequel or at least a Switch remaster.
Would love to see that happen!
Black sigil and nostalgia, man, that was a great time
Infinite space is a solid game but it honestly was rather short.
I hope that's sarcasm, because that game is many things, but definitely not short.
@@segafreak2000 40-ish hours to beat and 50-ish hours to 100% was pretty short for me. Guess I was a different kind of captain.
