Alex Kidd is an interesting, charming nod to Sega's Master System days, but it really didn't stand as much more than a stop-gap measure until Sonic the Hedgehog was ready.
*_Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle_* is another one of those games that I never experienced back then until *_Sonic's UGC_* on _Xbox 360_ . While not as good as *_Alex Kidd in Miracle World_* & especially *_Alex Kidd in Shinobi World_* , It's still a fine enough game for an early Genesis game. While the graphics and sound are nothing to write home about, the gameplay is the best part. Think of it like a 16-Bit version of *_Miracle World_* . It's alright, but I advise skipping out on this one and playing *_Miracle World_* & *_Shinobi World_* .
Somewhere, somehow, Alex Kidd is in his apartment growing fat eating tubs of ice cream & beer, watching clips of Sonic the Hedgehog failing in his games while waiting for phone calls from Sega.
Dude I remember playing this back in like 2007 on some kind of sega collection games controller thingy and THIS and the game echo about the dolphin stressed me out as a kid. I wish I could play it one more time
Dude you _CAN_ play it. Do you have a PC, or a tablet, or a phone? If you have any of those, then you can emulate the mega drive and any of its games. It's very very very easy to emulate games. Can you open a Word document in Microsoft Word? Then you can emulate games. It's that easy, you download the mega drive emulator, you search for "[game name] ROM" in Google and download the game ROM file, then open it in the emulator, and boom you're playing it again. Use a Bluetooth controller cos touch screen controls suck ass. You can use an xbox 360/xbox one controller for that, or a PS4/PS5 controller, or a switch controller, or any Bluetooth controller you might have. You can download the entire Mega Drive game library and have them all on your phone, because the files are so so tiny that even with thousands of them together they take up barely any space
I think Alex Kidd could've been a decent mascot for Sega, but the main issue with the guy is that he had nothing special about him as a character, and thus his games were nothing special. Mario had mushrooms and different suits that gave him special powers. Link had the Triforce. Sonic could roll into a ball and run really fast. Mega Man could copy the weapons of his defeated enemies, becoming a walking arsenal of destruction. Kirby could eat enemies and copy their powers. What could Alex Kidd do? What was his special gimmick that made him stand out? Playing Rock Paper Scissors? Punching stuff? He has no special power or anything iconic to build his gameplay around. He was just a guy, and Sega knew they couldn't build a brand on someone as bland as Alex.

@@cobaltis well I don’t care Alex Kidd in the enchanted did not come out in 1991 that’s when sonic 1 was around and this came out in 1989 it’s looks good for 1989
Alex Kidd looks like the kind of game that shouldve had a more extensive series, but it seems all they want to make is more Sonic games people will hate for some reason
@@xSuperFryx Lemme put it this way- The ideas for a good game are there, the music is nice, the graphics are ok, and the power up system is a nice twist on the traditional 2D platformer, but the game falls flat on the luck system of janken, the fact Alex can only take one hit before dying, and the fact that the controls and hit detection aren't that good.
I heard of Alex Kidd. The mascot of Sega before he had to leave his place to Sonic The Hedgehog. This game looks nice but it’s just me, or the pogo stick looks like a corkscrew ?
Isn't just you. Also, the master system games of Alex kidd were bether, 'cause this game is cool but, its Too short, and the junkenpo battles are so secundary
Sega's mascot was never really Alex Kidd. That was Opa-Opa, the character from the Fantasy Zone games. And if you didn't know, the Fantasy Zone games were far superior to the Alex Kidd games. They still are some of the best shoot em ups out there. The one I have nostalgia for is the Mega Drive one, Super Fantasy Zone, but there's a few different Fantasy Zone games, the mega drive one was a sequel. The original Fantasy Zone game even got ported to the NES which is pretty funny considering But yeah there's like 5 different Fantasy Zone games. They all look very similar to each other but they're not. Check them out. They're balls to the wall hard, really really difficult, despite the cutesy appearance
For anyone curious on how the RNG rotation works, I figured this out about 7-8 years ago when attempting to take the TAS speedrun and modify it for a real game run. Every boss starts the game on a set seed when the game is first booted. Every janken battle completed or lost will move the RNG seed over by 1 following a Rock-Scissors-Paper flow. For example, the first part of the speedrun requires us to get the Circlet on level 1. This is always Rock from a fresh reset of the game. The second level we grab the bike in the first hut to speed up the rest of the game. By taking circlet, this bike is now scissors. If we didn't take the circlet, it would be a rock instead. Each boss starts with their own setup and rotates by 1 for those completions, with the difference being the final boss has two setups. There was an image floating around from a streamer who played after me that their community had routed up different takes but with this logic you can map out any path you want as you progress the game, making mindful notes of how many janken battles and what the outcomes are for each.
This should have been a launch title in the US. It might have actually stood a chance before the edgier games started coming out. Nobody would even give it a second look when Sonic was BLAST PROCESSING through the Genesis library.
It was a launch title in North America. This game and the Sega Genesis console were both released on August 14th, 1989. I am curious as to why it wasn’t the pack-in title, instead of Altered Beast? I mean, Alex Kidd was Sega’s mascot back then. Who knows?
I never played this game growing up. A couple of years ago I got a Sega genesis that has a ton of games already on it. My 5 year old daughter loves it and plays alex kidd all the time haha.

I am also among those people that don't like this game. I will give it credit that the gameplay itself is fun, but the music and graphics are bland, forgettable, and outclassed by other early Genesis games like *_E-Swat_* and the original *_Streets of Rage_* . The Master System games are much better than this game (especially Alex Kidd in Shinobi World).
@@Dorian_Scott I think The Enchanted Castle isn't as good as Miracle World and Shinobi World, but better than The Lost Stars and High-Tech World. I think the biggest problem with The Enchanted Castle is that it wasn't much of an advancement over Miracle World, despite being released three years later and for a more powerful console. Miracle World was Sega's response to Nintendo's Super Mario Bros., but The Enchanted Castle was no competition for Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World.
This is one of those games that you had for some reason and you have to load up when having a fever and are staying at home from school just because you just didn't have very many games. I remember playing through this game and hating the mediocrity all the way through.
@@cadenz2729 Let's not pretend Genesis/Mega Drive games can't look good, because they can, and sometimes better than the SNES when it comes to resolution, animation, etc
Omg, I remember playing this game as a very young child, but in the car. My parents had an installation inside it that allowed the kids in the back to play games. This was one of those games.
This was my second game on Mega Drive after Altered Beast which came bundled with the console. This was way before Sonic. I remember it playing noticeably slower than in this video since I was in the Europe PAL region (therefore at 50 Hz)
Me too! Had to check out the video...I must have been too young to worry about the story. Poor Alex lol scumbag of a dad going off and having a whole other life in a castle 🙄
@@dils8969 oh yes! as a child I didn't know too much english like I do now, but I would've been upset to know the ending back then 😅 now it just makes me laugh
Nice playthrough but I mean jeez did you have to act on your OCD and get every last coin there was it was driving me nuts! Especially the last level, what does it really matter by that point. You must've been one of the wealthiest Alex Kidds who ever completed this game by the end
My favourite Alex Kidd game is still Alex Kidd in Shinobi World, even if it's rather derivative and it's basically a Shinobi game in a thinly-veiled Alex Kidd disguise. It's short, sweet, fun and easy. Other than that, I never saw the appeal of this character, personally. Sonic was a way better mascot for Sega, without any doubt.
My dad bought a Genesis at launch and lost interest in video games shortly after. This is what we had, for ten years, instead of Sonic or Mario. I'm not bitter...
This game was my Battletoads, with the limited continues system and the weird mechanics. Nowadays, I can beat both, but Battletoads holds up better. Since most things are under your control in that game.
Really interesting. A Kidd that knows marshal arts fighting and playing Rock Paper Scissors. Hmm. But still why the weight drop? With eyes? Odd. But not bad.
the ai is supposed to, with the exception of bosses, choose a feedback loop of choices stronger than your last choice.. if you try to disrupt them by choosing something weaker than your last choice, you should always paradoxically win... except the ai seems to have stopped doing that in this scenario for some reason.
This was a nice Classic for the early days of the Genesis! Playing this as a child (And even as an adult thanks to the PS4) felt honorable to Time-travel to 1989.
Your run is lucky on the rock paper scissor wins. I usually get raped of all my money in every cave and find the later levels really difficult. Good video

the ai is supposed to, with the exception of bosses, choose a feedback loop of choices stronger than your last choice.. if you try to disrupt them by choosing something weaker than your last choice, you should always paradoxically win... except the ai seems to have stopped doing that in this scenario for some reason.
This was a nice Classic for the early days of the Genesis! Playing this as a child (And even as an adult thanks to the PS4) felt honorable to Time-travel to 1989.
Storyline: "My father is a prisoner on planet Paperock! I must save him!"
Ending: Thor never was a prisoner. He rules Paperock. The end.
In the first 'helicopter' level, which buttons do you press in order for Alex to stay in the air as much as needed? Thanks.
The 'sky castle' level.
just continuously press the jump button
My childhood cry 😭 , amazing game
This was a great game growing up
playing this on my psp handed down from my dad ugh . hearing the opening screen such serotonin
"Will you bet your life" man i had a dark childhood
I really enjoyed this game. Here in Brasil, Alex Kidd is a very popular character 😊
Alex Kidd's only foray on the 16-bit era.
TOOK ME SO LONG TO FIND THIS
I used to love playing this, don’t know where I have my sega genesis, but I need to find it. I need to have the nostalgia.
i remember playing this on Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection on my PS3
I used to play it on my Sega Genesis back in 2017.
*PUM! KIN! SPICE!* 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Jankinpon!
Jan-Ken-Po!
why does his 1-up sprite look better than his actual player sprite
Nostalgia overload
Exactly
so many memories with this game
This game was a fun genesis classic on the PS3 especially collecting coins & bags 💰 for currency. But, just avoid the enemies though.
The real winner is the Helicopter theme. That has to be the best song ever
What does that item at 4:09 do? Thanks
I think it increases the amount of money earned, or makes you more lucky in Rock Paper Scissors
So much memories
Your run is lucky on the rock paper scissor wins. I usually get raped of all my money in every cave and find the later levels really difficult. Good video
Thanks! It took a lot of start overs while I was recording to manage doing that :)
Astounding!
