We appreciate all your support over the past year. Thanks for watching 🙌
Thank you all so much for your hard work! Your videos are some of my favorites to watch! ♡
1:33
Didn't know Satoshi was a Pokemon, honestly really big discovery surprised you didn't talk more about it tbh.
@@4tado I think you're overestimating just how "groundbreaking" a video game fact can be.
Really awesome work by everyone, I have been appreciating all the Metroid love the most!
Lots of great research last year. Keep it up!
I love how DYKG went from a fairly typical channel about fun facts and trivia to full blown investigative journalism over the past few years. Awesome work
Investigative journalism for our childhood memories.
They're doing better journalism than kotaku. That's for sure.
Didn't they start off with posting *Fun Fact* images online.
@@miguelmartinez6968 yes, with the same border on either side.
I read DYKG as donkey Kong gaming haha
Calling Samus a bounty hunter for years without even knowing what a bounty hunter is must be the most Nintendo thing I've heard in a long time.
To be fair, Nintendo wasn't exactly wrong. There's a lot of movies that have "loveable bounty hunter" type characters, and often they're portrayed more as adventurers with a checkered past than actual ruthless hunters. So in this case it's correct, even though Nintendo wasn't aware of the original meaning of a bounty hunter.
It's kind of like samurai. A lot of english people see samurai as just wandering adventurers that defend the weak like superheroes, not members of the government enforcing contracts and stuff. Cowboys, ninjas, and knights are the same way. Their actual jobs kind of lose all association and they become adventurers of whatever place or time they come from.
And thinking of her as an "altruistic" & "motherly" adventurer? Jesus christ Nintendo... you can still be "for everyone/family friendly" while also not being COMPLETELY childish & silly 😅
Came here to post this comment 🤣
@@rioleo533 Yeah think Nintendo was thinking something more like Din Djarin from the Mandalorian, rather than Boba Fett. Adventurer and bounty hunter tend to have a lot of overlap in fantasy anyway. I don't really see how Samus's heart of gold nature necessarily conflicts with being a bounty hunter, and it's probably more so the tone they were putting forth that probably got it rejected. Think she's suppose to come off more like a freelance space cop than a hired killer.
That entire 'Nintendo does not know what a bounty hunter is' section... Explains so, so much.
Considering how Other M followed it and panned out, it's crystal clear they always had no idea why or how Metroid was liked.
@@QwixLF The thing is Other M has pretty damn brutal combat. You shove the canon into monsters throats, watch Ridly get cut up and bloody, explode the Queen Metroid from the inside. They clearly knew that Samus was a strong warrior as well as being motherly
I mean do you know why they call him DONKEY kong?
@@QwixLF I mean what kind of Bounty Hunting did you ever do in any Metroid game other than maybe Hunters? And even in that game its also a stretch. It's like calling Mario a plumber but there's no actual plumbing in any of the Mario games.
@@kakyoindonut3213 because he'a stubborn like a donkey, allegedly
If you ask me, Heroes of Hyrule is the biggest discovery and probably the greatest loss, that game just seemed incredible
There would've been uproar over Link being able to talk, though. Way too risky change.
I don't even play Zelda and I agree
@@NetConsole When was it ever said that Link would've talked he was barely even in the game concept cause he's not the main character and seemingly only showed up for the beginning and ending of the story as the shop keeper so Link could've easily never spoken a single word.
@@theninjamaster67 It's heavily implied...
@@NetConsole Implication isn't fact Becka!
DYKG went from: "did you know this little curious fact that you might have not heard but still some people already know?"
To: we are resurrecting death devs to interview them, as well as unearthing and translating ancient Nintendo scrolls written on sumerian to uncover histories nobody ever knew!
...And I love it. Kudos to all the DYKG team for making tremendous efforts translating, interviewing and fighting video takedowns to bring to us all of the amazing stories and secrets!
Thanks Alex :)
I see TH-cam gives us the same recommendations lol
@L Same for Spanish speaking people. I reached DYKG to offer my translation skills to translate into spanish all the marvelous videos they have made so far so people in my region know all this precious information or at least, provide Spanish subtitles. DYKGs marvelous work deserves to be spread more and more.
That entire 'Painted Chick' thing is super upsetting D: Can't believe people actually just threw them away
I can't speak for anywhere else, but it was a very common thing in my country (3rd world latin american country). Not excusing this as it's clearly animal abuse in many measures, but as a child it was hard to develop any sense of accountability if even your parents encouraged such behavior. As an adult I have noticed it has decreased in most metropolitan areas, but if you take a drive around more rural areas, it still pops up from time to time. Sad really; we have a long way to go as a species still.
Never heard of it till now. Crazy
It really is similar to when kids get a goldfish and they often just treat it poorly and it dies early especially when they forget it exists after the emotional high of obtaining it is over
Not cleaning the bowl, trying to "pet it", trying to "bathe" it, not feeding it enough, etc
This is a failure in parenting if anything
Teach kids that animal lives are still lives.
A family member of mine told the same story did happen, back when I was very young to remember.
You never heard of people buying baby gators to do the same thing?
Heroes of Hyrole sounds really freaking amazing!
Right? Like, can we get that game…like now pls.
Couldn't agree more!
The story with the book, reading and collecting pages and the late reveal are awesome. It would probably be my favorite Zelda related story.
Retro Studios is an amazing studio and its so sad that many of their awesome pitches never made it into real products.
The thing that turned my head the most was that, only 2 years after wind waker, the one Rito character from the official pitch drawings basically just looks like she'd have fit right into breath of the wild. In fact, so does the Zora character (who himself is fairly different looking than the twilight princess Zora from 2006). Makes me wonder if it's just a coincidence, or if Retro's concept art actually managed to stay in the back of Nintendo staffs' heads all those years later while they were developing breath of the wild. Probably a coincidence, but man would it be cool if it wasn't.
What an absolute waste of good concept :( those character art are PHENOMENAL.
Nintendo calling Samus a bounty hunter and then refusing to let her be one is funny. It's as if they just called her that since it sounded super cool 🤣🤣
i wonder if this is just somethign lost in translation?
retro is a US company. If the whole bounty hunter thing is just something made up in localization when the first metroid came out that stuck around but the big wigs at nintendo japan never knew about, that would explain a lot.
@SophiaLilithUwU I heard once that the term may have a different meaning in Japan? Take it with a grain of salt bc this is just hearsay (which my brain may have fabricated by putting random info in a blender, has happened to me before), but I think I once saw someone say that in Japan "bounty hunter" is understood differently. Don't remember *how* exactly they claimed the term to be different, though.
Yeah but Mario is supposed to be a plumber, what plumbing has Mario actually done in the last 30+ years? Clearly this is a US localization thing.
@Kevin from Sales there was him and Luigi fixing the clear pipe at the very beginning of 3D World, but other than that I can't think of any instances of him actually doing his job on screen.
@@kevinfromsales9445 I'm pretty sure the original Mario Bros game (not to be confused with Super Mario Bros) mainly involved Mario and Luigi taking down turtles and crabs in the sewer and had more to do with him being a plumber.
But I guess ever since Mario became Super Mario he gave up being a plumber in favor of saving princesses.
14:53 That's ironic sense people seem to like Blaziken a lot.
Yeah, at least in my opinion Blaziken ended up looking cool rather than ugly. And with Pokémon, especially starters, people generally want creatures that grow to look cool and/or powerful.
I remember when dykg was just an image based website. It's grown so far.
This new style of DYKG has made the channel so much better. It's most exciting the show has been since it first started, maybe more so since you guys are really going into the specifics of stuff
It's been truly refreshing. The fact that DYKG is regularly able to uncover substantial information that no one else even knew about is so exciting. You see a video drop about a cancelled project or unknown development history and you know it's going to be something fascinating. And the way they're able to just casually say "we had this translated" or "we asked this developer for details" in their other videos is so cool.
The whole way through that part on Satoshi Tajiri’s supposed autism, I was thinking of that XKCD “Citogenesis” cartoon, which happens to be my favourite. I was super delighted that you actually showed it. Everyone (particularly journalists and researchers) should read it. So many many “Internet facts” can be attributed to citogenesis, and it’s rare that journalists actually bother to dig as deep as you did. Respect due.
This is also because the writer is stupid for real. A myspace page really ? FROM A JAPANESE GAME DEV ? Anyone would have realized how fucking dumb this is.
What is Citogenesis? (And what was the invisible reply?)
Between DYKG and MMAonpoint this year has been the year for me “Wait you can just reach out with questions and real people might answer!?”
Yeah, journalism is so messed up lately that we tend to forget it can be done well.
Rip andrew Callaghan
@@INRamos13 Journalism has been doing great things this entire time. Don't let shitty US media cloud that.
Nintendo: What's a bounty hunter?!?? That's crazy!
Also Nintendo: Hey, remember the time when we bought baby chicks and threw them out as kids? Hahah, good times!!
Nobody at Nintendo watched Cowboy Bebop? I can’t believe that.
@@JBaughb more like stated in the manual of NES Metroid game in the US
"The Federation Bureau created the Galactic Federation Police, but the pirates' attacks were powerful and it was not easy to catch them in the vastness of space.
[...]
These great warriors were called "space hunters." They received large rewards when they captured pirates, and *made their living as space bounty hunters.*"
Pokemon is not developed by Nintendo, but by Game Freak.
@@BlisterKitten whoa, you caught me, Mr. Liar Liarton! Your HARD FACTS statement play got me in the end! Curse you!!
To be fair, that's Japanese 80's culture. Not defending it; lots of ignorant people running things then.
Someone should definitely make a Heroes of Hyrule-like game, without the Zelda overlay if necessary. It just sounds so cool.
Even better, someone should make a spoof game just to stick it to Nintendo. By which I mean have the main characters have really obvious names, like the heroes be Dink, Lunar the Moron, Teriph the Mito, and Zrel the Kora... the "Book of Fanon," etcetera. I'm just spitballing here, Seriph could just as easily be named "Sans" although a different company might take umbrage with that name.
Seriously, this sounds like it could be an incredible game that's pretty unique and fun. Even stripping out the Zelda elements wouldn't hurt it much and an indie developer could easily swap the characters and story for their own ideas and be great.
Well why people make fan games using Nintendo ip because people will gathering fast than make the original ip. You need influencer if you make original ip to fight in crowded market and gains audience.
@@macdee010 But making a fan-game with Nintendo IP is a bad idea in this case, as they already shot this down. There are plenty of indie developers who could make a game like this. One only needs to make a very good, solid game, that can stand its own between the buggy, DLC-ridden triple A games that get released at the same time.
@@Kobolds_in_a_trenchcoat The story itself doesn't even need the Zelda elements, so if one could create fun new characters they could keep the story as is, no problem! Just.. without the Zelda bits :P
Here are the Timestamps for any of those interested.
0:00: Intro
0:35: Pokémon Originally Had 65,535 Versions
3:52: The Zelda Game Nintendo Don’t Want You to See
9:11: Metroid Prime Devs Share Secrets
14:37: Colosseum Devs Knew Nothing About Pokémon
20:43: Lost Zelda Game for Nintendo DS: Heroes of Hyrule
30:45: Pokémon Myths Debunked
35:45: Outro
Ganon being sealed in the "Book of Ganon" would have basically been "No, not into the pit, IT BURNS!"
Am I missing the part of the video talking about Pokemon Colosseum, or was it not mentioned? I see the Colosseum character in the thumbnail and the mentioned timestamp here, but they don't seem to bring it up.
@@Gerelos It's the name of the original video they clipped
@@Gerelos Yeah, they didn't mention it in this video, but that's what the video was called, so that's what I typed in.
You also missed the part where he calls Satoshi Tojiri a Pokémon at 1:33 ish hahaha
You guys have been doing an incredible job digging up all this stuff. Thank you so much! 😊
When you run out of things to learn about the living, you become an archeologist. 😎
Thanks Von :)
Blaziken is awesome, they failed doing the thing they had in mind. As someone who has pet chickens, it feels exactly like watching a chick grow: It starts as really cute, then it gets to an awkward teenager stage, then it becomes this cool-looking animal with beautiful feathers and sharp, fierce talons and beak that's your best friend and will stick by your side forever. Not ugly or disappointing at all.
What’s odd about the Pokémon fact being over 60k versions is that I initially heard that rumor in school in 1996, but quickly dispelled it once I actually got my hands on the card. It’s so interesting to see today what was true ca what was gobbledygook. Major props for the hard work y’all do-I’ve been gaming since the late 80’s and the video game industry is an industry that tends to have a lot of misinformation. To paraphrase Disney’s Pocahontas, I learn things I never knew I never knew.
Pokemon is for babies
You guys are singlehandedly keeping the history of video games and their development alive. I wonder how many of these facts and stories would have been lost to time if you hadn't done all this work to uncover it. Having records of all this stuff only gets more important as time goes on, and you guys just keep getting better at it!
Honestly the whole bit about Blaziken being ugly is really funny in hindsight when you consider how uh..."liked" it is within the fanbase
I remember first seeing you guys on Facebook years ago. All these years and I think 2022 was y’all’s best one yet. I love the content and I hope you guys keep striving to find new and original information about these games
that painted chick bit broke my heart
Heroes of Hyrule would've been such a dope game. The story seems so tight, and the tactics type gameplay is one of my favorite type of games 👌🏻
Absolutely been loving the new “investigative journalism” focus of the channel. A brilliant evolution of DYKG.❤️
Clearly a lost in translation issue if Nintendo thought a Bounty Hunter was simply an Adventurer. Maybe they thought it meant Treasure Hunter?
Maybe it beacause Metroid took some inspirations from the classic anime/manga "Space Adventure Cobra".
is samus even called a bounty hunter in the original japanse script? It its something a translation team made up that would explain a lot.
@@SophiaLilithUwU Dunno, but the original Metroid manual says, "The Federation Bureau and the Federation Police called together warriors known for their great courage and sent them to do battle with the pirates. These great warriors were called "space hunters." They received large rewards when they captured pirates, and made their living as space bounty hunters"
So even if you call them "space hunters" but Samus has always worked as freelancer to capture pirates and bring them to law enforcement departments in exchange for rewards then by definition she's been a bounty hunter since day one.
I suppose the introduction of pre-evolved/egg Pokémon in Gen 2 did sort of contribute to thinking that the designs were starting to become "too babyish" (always thought Lugia and Scizor were pretty cool though), but their efforts to want to give Pokémon more of an edge again did indeed result in us getting some of the most awesome looking new legendaries ever with Groudon and Rayquaza, so it was all well and good in the end. Some of those new Pokémon still kept me following the franchise during Gen 3 even with the lack of older Pokémon in the games at first.
Though I have to say, if you had been watching the original series of the anime back in the day when Misty's Togepi first appeared then you would remember what a big deal this baby Pokémon was at the time, since this was still before Gold & Silver came out and fans knew what a lot of the next Pokémon of Gen 2 were going to be, so there was quite a bit of intrigue as to what kind of Pokémon Togepi was that even the anime played up on. Of course that was then, and I'm sure by now nobody really cares as much about Togepi anymore aside from its significance with the anime.
I do think it's unfortunate that they don't make pokemon as simple anymore. The first 2 gens were really iconic, and instantly recognisable. Newer gens I wouldn't be able to tell some stuff apart from a digimon
what i’m getting from this video is that paul tozour is the goat of gaming investigative journalism
This channel is definitely up there on my list if someone asks me what the ideal TH-cam channel should be. Great stuff
The archeological work you're doing lately is invaluable. Thank you!
I remember watching this channel when I was younger and really liking it. I only started watching again this year because I clicked on one of these new videos you released and I saw that you were translating old Japanese sources for a new English audience I was really impressed. It is this thorough research that you have been putting into your videos that has kept me coming back throughout this year. So long as you keep up this great research I will keep coming back!
Been watching this channel for 10 years. I'm nothing short but proud and grateful for you guys for all the content contributions you made. Here's to another year of gaming gusy
2:40 it’s an “unsigned” 16-bit number, not an “unassigned” one. Signed means that one of the bits is dedicated for signing, as in a positive or negative sign
Exactly what I thought. An _unassigned_ number would, I believe, be the same as an uninitialized variable, i.e. a variable with no defined value.
Bothered I didn’t catch that, good for you!
Didn't catch that in the VO. Script and CC subtitles both say "unsigned".
@@DidYouKnowGamin Don't feel too bad mate. Those slip-ups can happen. Great video!
That one hell of a detail catch
It's so incredible how far journalism has come over the last few years.
you guys are awesome! while everyone out there are making "news" citing random tweets you guys are doing actual journalism, love your work!
Yeah Kotaku's journalistic integrity 404 not found ❌
I gotta say, I am impressed by the investigative journalism that DYKG does. It's so great to see so much of the behind the scenes of game design of years past. Thank you!
The "Nintendo doesn't know what a bounty hunter" thing I definitely remember from many years ago.
Actual peak gaming journalism.
Heroes of Hyrule would have been amazing. Looks like it was very well thougt out and planned.
Being well-planned doesn't mean it would've been guaranteed to be good.
I don't see a lot of people being interested in a game where Link is a side character and has to be rescued by random new characters.
Sure, plenty of fans SAY they want something different, but every time a game connected to LoZ actually did buck the formula, other than BotW, it went really poorly.
@mattpace1026 I don't really super like the link connection in it myself but the gameplay, story, and overall concept seem great. Honestly, I think that if someone made the game but without specific Zelda references, and distributed it on steam, it would probably do well. It probably wouldn't be the best selling game ever or the highest rated indie or anything but I don't think it would do poorly or suck.
@@mattpace1026 hyrule warriors did pretty well and was mostly side characters
@@niceveraert1000 That game did well because of nostalgia-though I don't claim it's a bad game. Also, I did say most, not all.
@@mattpace1026 Cadence of Hyrule was good. I mean from everything we've seen I think the general consensus is that this game does sound pretty good. obviously we'd never know, but still. Aren't there like barely and zelda games that break the formula anyway? There's only a handful I can think of and most have been received well to my knowledge.
Also, you did say "every game game besides BotW", lol
So Samus was viewed more like Din Djarin over Boba Fett to Nintendo's eyes.
30:41 omg its so sad nintendo passed on all of these, it really does feel like retro lit the intial spark that would become botw's story
and skyward swords story
I think Nintendo didn't want a Zelda game where Link is not the main character. Or they could have been working on a Zelda title, and didn't want to compete against themselves.
hmm
The quality of these videos are honestly top tier. You guys have come a long way, these videos never fail to entertain and educate 😆
You guys absolutely slayed in 2022. The interviews, translations, everything. I loved it
I love this type of stuff especially learning about the development and early ideas you guys do great work and who knows how much more cool stuff is hiding in plain sight in other interviews and such
Love all the original research you guys are doing now. It will keep you relevant forever.
this channels evolution is one of my favorites. we appreciate your work!
Amazing! I had the chance to see most of the information presented here on its respective videos, but it's always good to have these compilations. Great video!
(Also: at 30:40, dat "SURPRISE!")
The "65,536 Different Kantos" thing feels vastly overstated in terms of scope to me. To achieve this, all you need are 16 areas that could be 1 of 2 different locations, a la White Forest/Black City in BW/B2W2. There are 2^16 (65,536) possible combinations of these 32 areas.
For example, if you design 16 different gyms but let each game only have 8 (with each slot on the map having 2 possibilities), and then have 8 caves or similar that follow similar rules, bam, you have 65,536 different versions of a game.
That sounds like a really neat concept! May not have fit on a GameBoy cartridge, but I believe a Switch cart should be able to fit that no problem.
It'd certainly be possible to do get 65k versions with minimal differences like you described. The way Tajiri described it in his quotes (about stepping into different world and all that) makes it sound like he wanted to do more than the bare minimum though. He didn't go into a whole lotta detail though so who knows.
I think I speak for everyone in saying that we love your team's work and are looking forward to prosperous years going forward! This recap video was amazing as I missed that Zelda tactics video.
Thanks for the thorough research. And thanks Retro Studios for the new infos & games that you made
This was a phenomenal video. I really loved the Metroid save jingle/soundscape homage to that movie. Such a niche but awesome detail. Cheers! 🍻
Thanks again for the opportunity to work on the OG Hyrule video, glad it’s back up!!
You are a fantastic artist. I hope they paid you well!
My favorite game discovery this past year was easily the Rayman 4 prototype
Thank you, DYKG! I've enjoyed your content for over 5 years and will continue to enjoy it for years to come!
Great analysis video! Thanks so much for uploading! & Happy New Year!
6:15 how on earth can you create a game that is simpler than whack a mole 😭🤣😭
It's unfortunate that some of us miss videos because of bogus takedowns by large companies. Any word on getting that one re-uploaded?
Heroes of Hyrule you mean? It's back up.
Incredible video, and amazing job to the team!!
the nintendo not knowing what a bounty hunter is is funnier now because doing missions for money is explicitly referenced in dread's opening
2022 was an amazing year for DidYouKnowGaming, here’s to an even better 2023!
wait a second...
"Ganon went into the book"
"The heroes tried to burn the book"
...
NO! NOT INTO THE PIT! IT BURNS!
the moment Nintendo saw the words "Book of Ganon" they instantly obliterated the pitch from orbit
"I won!" -Link
Y'all did some amazing work in 2022. I'm looking forward to more of this kind of stuff in 2023!
I feel bad because I didn't discover your actual TH-cam channel until about a year ago, I used to watch your videos all the time when I would see them on Facebook. But a year ago I subscribed and then I went on a binging spree and I watched every single video you had out. And now I continue to watch every video you put out and you have become one of my favorite TH-cam channels keep it up you guys rock!
The time and effort this channel puts in to do real journalism work is amazing. Appreciate it!
I always kinda glazed over this channel because there was, in my opinion, not much substance usually in the past. However, i would like to give massive props to you guys. I am absolutely loving the effort put into the most recent period of videos. Great work, and i will be awaiting future endeavors
What a great video to start the new year look forward to all the great content on the way
The evolution of this channel is just making me love you guys more
I still cant get over the big hacks of 2019-2020 where we learned about L is real in Mario 64. And how uncompressed audio for starfox 64 exists! And so much more.
I always remember being disappointed about not being able to actually fly the Thrush Eterna in Prime 3. I was thrilled you could use the abilities but bummed at the same time :( also disappointed you couldn't use it much, or there was only specific points to use it.
The idea of someone explaining the meaning of a bounty hunter to head Ninty staff is hilarious to me, just imagining Shigsy and the rest with shocked Pikachu faces :-o NANI?
Okay so can we all agree that Heroes of Hyrule sounds fucking rad?
I would love for that game to be real, it sounds like one of those games today that people still talk about and remember fondly, bugging Nintendo daily for a remaster or sequel and the like. I can even see it planted firmly in many "Top 20 DS Games Of All Time" lists, just solely based on the pitch shown in this video.
If Retro were granted the green light and were able to fully realise the potential of this pitch, then we could have had something really special on our hands.
The time and effort DYKG committed to their research in 2022 were outstanding. I've been watching for years, but I can confidently say that the channel uploaded some of my favorite videos in 2022.
Retro just can't catch a break with their Tactics style games, eh? Maybe Nintendo will be open to a game like HoH in the future since Cadence was unique amongst Zelda games and did well. That artwork for the Sheik game looked like something straight out of Metroid though. Pretty cool.
Retro gets access to any IP: how about a tactics game set in this universe?
It's not that Nintendo doesn't know what a Bounty Hunter is, it's just that the games features she being heroic instead of bounting, Metroid Zero One even has a pic of her picking bounties in a bar.
Nintendo just not wanting a game being about bounty hunting.
source?
I remember that, Its one of the extras you get with the endings in Zero Mission based on your completion time. It has Samus being a bounty hunter makes some sense (though I think “freelancer” is a better term) because it allows her to not have to follow orders, which she is noted for disliking on many occasions.
@@BamfIamone Sources are Sakamoto saying the games are about her being autruistic hero and one of Zero Mission's secret artworks feature her in a bar picking a bounty reward.
Oh wow a recap of some of the discoveries made :0 so cool~ thank you
I hope you guys stay around and continue with awesome content
Im praying that the Heros of Hyrule concept gets realized!!! I WOULD LOVE THIS GAME IT WOULD BE AMAZING! I hope and pray that if we push hard enough maybe retro will try and pitch it again? maybe just maybe
Scam above me, don't respond!!
Amazing video. Really showcases how creativity can be stifled by narrowmindedness and/or not venturing out comfort zones.
I think Heroes of Hyrule would have been something amazing in its own right; a bold new direction or simply a great spin-off for TLoZ franchise; we even have such an example in modern times with Mario + Rabbids. Sadly it wasn't meant to be, but perhaps something similar will grace us one day.
Cheers!
Yeah I guess I should leave a genuine comment, this channel went above and beyond this year. Been subscribed since old youtube when the blog was still active and I'm amazed at the genuine exclusive, new information you guys have provided this year. Especially as a monstrous Pokemon and Portal fan, its like you've specifically catered to my interests in the best way.
Thanks FG, big fan of Pokémon and Portal over here too
Amazing video! such in-depth info wow!
I'm still so unbelievably salty about the entire story of Heroes of Hyrule because I would have absolutely LOVED that shit
Great job on this video. A lot of effort put in, keep up the good work 👍
Ngl I was really sad to see DYKG Extra leave but these new DYKG are insanely well made, I basically watch all of them now
i hope duke nukem forever's in this vid cuz i ain't seeing it in the thumbnail
It's not and I'm genuinely surprised.
What got discovered?
it's about things DYKG themselves have discovered
@@chronodemon8 a few builds of different incarnations of the game throughout its development got leaked recently
This video made have so much more respect for Gen 3 of Pokémon, and why it's still my favorite.
What a great wrap up! Thank you!
This video compilation is amazing and I applaud how much research was done!
The man who defeated nintendo
Heroes of Hyrule sounds like one of the best games to never exist.
Honestly, that Zelda tactical RPG sounded pretty cool.
What an incredible video, it must have been so frustrating as a relic developer who had the chance to do two Zelda titles, and watching the ship crash and burn both times.
Next thing you know, we're going to learn Nintendo doesn't really know what the term "mercenary" means. Despite them using that word to describe Fox McCloud all these years.
They’re aware. It’s baked into the story of their past. Theyre outlaws that take on a variety of jobs but refuse to do anything unethical. The group was started by Fox’s father who was a former Air Force pilot.
Would not be surprised one bit. But I'm pretty sure Nintendo isn't the only one that doesn't understand what that term means either, considering the amount of fans wanting it to just stay on rails, and them flying on Arwings the whole time.
Not related exactly to discovering something new about a game but: the best discovery for me was the Like A Dragon Ishin localisation, i'm still watching the Ambush trailer daily because my excitement levels are through the roof (you did a great Region Locked episode on it by the way Greg, now can we get an episode of Region Locked on Kenzan please)
the Dragon Warrior Monsters shout out made me excited. those GBC games were some of my first and most cherished
Pretty cool to see the channel expanding in this way
"we wanted people raising them to feel that sense of disappointment" Well.. you failed to make Blaziken disappointing but made up for it with almost every new starter since : /
Personally, I think the "Heroes of Hyrule" game would have been really fun! I bet I would have really enjoyed it if it had come out! Luckily, there's no shortage of fun games!
my favorite channel of all time honestly keep doing the lords work 🙌🏼
