This was such a nostalgic one for me. The amount of hours I spent playing multiplayer was probably on par with Goldeneye. And it also reminded me that I've never beat this game -- I got stuck on that highway level and gave up. Maybe I'll give it another go now, 25 years later.
I only ever played this games multi-player. I played more of the second attack then this one, but it reminds me of birthday parties back in elementary school.
It was really hard as a kid as well, but once you grow up it actually starts becoming mostly a fair affair. Just go with normal mode and hold on to the heart item and you should be able to reach the end.
The commercial: "Bomberman! bomberman! mass destruction across the land... makes a bomb, any size! And he's yours to customize, look out! Your very own bomberman! (doo doo dooooooo!) cross his path, you'll explode! in the brand new adventure mode, different levels to explore, on Nintendo 64, look out! YOUR VERY OWN BOMBERMAN!!!" I remember seeing the commercials for this game when I was in the 6th grade, love it
One of my favorite little details about this game is if you go back to the early levels after getting the true ending, serius gives pissed off dialogue instead of tutorials.
@@Thabeast721 There is a hidden challenge, if youre interested, you must collect all 120 golden cards on hard mode in under 3 hours to unlock a golden armor set for multiplayer mode.
The 4 bonus battle stages you get for 100%'ing the game were so satisfying... my friends and I were so stoked to have new levels to play on, and 15yrs later, my gf and I were just playing this game because she found the multiplayer so fun. I wish they still gave great rewards like this for fully completing a game.
If you highlight over Battle mode and press start really fast you'd be able to get the 4 extra levels too. But they would go away after you turned the system off.
@@PopADoseYo Dude I knew of that trick and my friends and I could NOT for the life of us get it to work... even tried using a turbo controller and still couldn't get it. Finally reached a point where I said "screw this.. I'll beat hard mode darn it" lolol
Having grown up playing 2D games on the NES, SNES and Genesis, the transition to 3D was incredible. I don't know if I have words to adequately describe it to people who didn't live through it, but seeing previously flat games like Mario and Bomberman make that jump was probably the highlight of the whole thing. There was this feeling of liberation, of being able to move freely for the first time ever. The bright, sunny worlds and carefree soundtracks made you feel like you were someplace wonderful, even though you were fighting and solving puzzles. Hearing that music, even just in the background, put a lump in my throat. These games will always have a special place in my heart, because that transition was something that could only happen once, and I feel privileged now to have been the exact right age to be floored by it as a kid.
This game was a big chunk of my childhood. Love this game, the music the levels and gameplay and puzzles are amazing. Nostalgia is strong with this one too
Bomberman, Mario, Starfox, and Mario Kart were my 4 main N64 games growing up. I never got all the gold cards, so today I learned you get betrayed for doing 100%
One of the games i was waiting for you to play. i LOOOOOOVED this game as a kid. It had a huge effect on my taste in video games, stories and art. idk what it is about young kids and super sentai but we just ate that stuff up, This, power rangers, sailor moon, its was all just so cool and exciting. I like the voice clips in this and it definitely has that classic Hudson Soft look, the very bright and cheery art with lazers and robots. very intune to the sensibilities of a child. I think all the Bomberman games were good in the n64 days, this was really his peak as unfortunately the next gen bomberman games werent as good if i remember them correctly. I guess the hardware just got too involved and complex for hudsonsoft.
this series has been such an adventure! incredible progress and skills. i almost never use twitch, but this series has me poppin' into your channel now and again to see what's coming in the future. thanks for the fun, high-quality videos!
I am so happy that you did 100% on this. The normal game uses none of the gameplay features you need for the real ending. So i am glad to see you also learned those techniques because for me they are one of the best part of the game.
As a kid I was rather jealous of one of my friends for owning this game. There's a certain satisfaction watching you play and narrate decades later that I just can't describe with words. Plus, your voice grew on me by the end lol
This is a pretty great game with unique gameplay. Very different than other Bomberman titles, but still a Bomberman game. Good puzzles, good action boss fights.
So glad they put this game on Wii U virtual console. This is a game I always forget about when I think of the N64, but it took up a fairly large chunk of my time spent with the system
This game is the "obscure N64 Bomberman game" for me. I grew up with HERO, which I loved. Had no clue it was a sequel, but when I finished it, it definitely felt like there was something I was missing. Really fun platformer that I wish got a sequel on the Switch, not a remake/re-release. A full-on brand-new Bomberman platformer. The boss fights were fun as a kid, haven't been able to play it in a while
It took me a forever to beat this game as a kid and using gamefaqs to figure out all the secret content. It was def a challenge but I loved it. I wish games today made me feel how these oldies did man. Thanks for the nostalgia again!
@@legendcrump2375 We never did figure out how to get every multiplayer outfit fully unlocked. I looked up how to get them all years later and I have no idea how they expected most people to figure most of this stuff out!
I mimic your “ What’s that!?!” when you are wondering about your next game is, when I am reviewing my analysts work that I manage (when they do it wrong).
I barely own more than a dozen n64 games but somehow with this and the previous one you managed to get two of them in a row. I never got the true ending as a kid after getting pretty frustrated with the gold cards in the boss fights. It was a 2nd hand cart, so I remember also being frustrated with crooked cart issues. I'm upset now to learn it was an entire extra world I missed out on lol, thanks for showing it off.
Cards on that blue dragon is literally all I remembered from this game. The difficulty gap from the rest of the game and getting cards from bosses huge.
This was one of my favorite childhood games. I remember grinding out all the gold cards for the multiplayer extras and then being shocked at unlocking the secret level. Those experiences back then felt so good. Never could get all 5 cards out of serius though. I always thought serius was a jerk, but I realize now that his dialogue changes when you unlock his level but are in the other levels. I played they game too much back then, especially the multiplayer.
I caught up with the youtube video series and i have been following your journey on twitch since Superman 64. This is a great series and congrats on reaching 100 games already!
I loved this game. Didn't get to play it until I read 13 or 14 but I had a ton of fun with it. Story mode was great, but I spent endless hours with my cousin on multiplayer. That music was the best.
i got this game in 2016 when i began collecting N64 and i had/still have no idea how to play it but it's fun and relaxing and i pop it in on occasion, totally will give it another try..can't wait for you to get a Turok game
I played this game a lot as a kid and i'm very fond of it. However, even thougn i knew about these gold cards, i couldn't for the life of me figure out how to get them all, just some of them (i didn't have internet access at the time, also i wasnt bothered by this anyway). This means that i had absolutely no idea about the secret final level and, most baffling, Sirius betrayal until today. This is so amazing, it's like unveiling a true mistery in a game, something that rarely ever occurs these days.
One of my favs as a kid. While somewhat rough around the edges this was definitely a sleeper hit! One of the best soundtracks on the console and so much content! I never managed to get all the cards so thanks for showing me the true ending ✌️ chapter complete.
"The enemies here are cards with weapons for some reason, it doesn't make much sense" "So now there's a boss, the Spellmaker. He sends out cards to signify which attack he'll use" lol hmm...
I haven't played this game in years, but still remember how to get through every single level. The weirdest part is, I have no recollection of that fish boss fight at all. None. But everything else is still intact. So weird..
I always considered Bomberman 64 to be "that game you play when you can't get your hands on Super Mario 64," and for my brother and I specifically "that game we played *because* we didn't have Mario 64 *and* Blockbuster was out of copies to rent." Years later I would voluntarily buy a used copy because of the nostalgia of renting it so much, and only ever reaching the Rainbow Palace world once.
i put so many hours into this game as a kid but as frustrating as it is to say i just couldn't beat the volcano type boss, i'm thinking it's time for a revisit
The fire level robot boss you can actually get a super bomb inside him to deal two hearts of damage if you stun him with a big bomb on his head, causing the chest door to open! Also the fortress mecha boss thing it puts in the center doesn't just make it dark, it actually does slow your movement down
Somehow missed this vid. Bomberman 64 is fun, relatively easy. Bomberman Hero is where the devs went a bit nuts and made it difficult. The pharaoh tank boss in the water level specifically.
Let's take a second to appreciate the gorgeous anti aliasing in this game. It's mind boggling that they achieved it with overall good framerates back then.
It took me three main bosses to find out the remote bombs are remote. Up until then I had to make bosses trigger the bombs as I didn’t know you could detonate them remotely.
I really recommend play this one in retroachievements, is so fun and have good challenging, also play the Bomberman 64 second attack and Bomberman Hero
Been watching your videos of the N64 games i liked and man was this one of them. A couple of my friends had N64's and 1 friend had this game, it was such a good multiplayer game on par with smash bros and perfect dark. I watched him play through the story mode and it looked pretty cool, definitely something I would have enjoyed if I had the chance to play it.
I loved this game and it's one im looking to add to my collection again. I remember not being able to complete it to 100% because I could never find one thing
Just finished this game for the first time a few months ago. I think I would have liked it more if I had played it back in the day. Great series though. Can't wait for more.

The main game is hard
It was really hard as a kid as well, but once you grow up it actually starts becoming mostly a fair affair. Just go with normal mode and hold on to the heart item and you should be able to reach the end.
The multiplayer was addicting and fun
Don’t forget about Diddy King Racing and Starfox 64 multiplayer
The commercial: "Bomberman! bomberman! mass destruction across the land... makes a bomb, any size! And he's yours to customize, look out! Your very own bomberman!

Respect to you for going an extra mile to get the true ending
Same. Wasn't sure if he was going to do that or not. I wonder if he'll do the same for bomberman hero?
If I’m enjoying the game I’ll usually do extra stuff. Unless it’s like impossibly long
@@Thabeast721 There is a hidden challenge, if youre interested, you must collect all 120 golden cards on hard mode in under 3 hours to unlock a golden armor set for multiplayer mode.
@@jesseherman5540 In my opinion Bomberman Hero is the easiest one to 100% complete. It was the only 3d Bomberman that I fully completed.
Looks like a lot of love was put into this games development. Always nice to see.

I had no idea they existed until like last year. Kinda blew my mind. 6 year old me would have cried when he tried those levels though lol

I freakin love this game. The multiplayer is so much fun
SO much fun! spent hours in my friend’s basement playing that mode
@@RobertF-zj2rm It’s the best. All the funny power ups would have my siblings and I cracking up.
especially the sudden death time!
That was a nostalgia bomb for me, never managed to beat the game tho. It was all about the multiplayer for me
Love watching your n64 series!!! Day after day you bring back that Nostalgia. Best of luck on all your future videos!!
loved bomberman games as a kid. the 64 games in particular were so cool to me back then!
I just wanna say that I love this series! Always excited to see a new entry, and really excited for when you roll Aidyn Chronicles the First Mage
Everyone: "Add Altair to Smash Bros."
Smash Bros 6: "introducing Altair from Bomberman!"
Everyone: "not what we meant but not disappointed."
This was my favorite bomberman -- such a unique one. The multiplayer was the GOAT though, though #2 on snes was sweet too
totally agree with you about the very few games I beat as a little kid sticking with me forever. very very few lol
This is a pretty great game with unique gameplay. Very different than other Bomberman titles, but still a Bomberman game. Good puzzles, good action boss fights.

SuperMario 64 and Bomberman 64 were my firsts XD
@@michaeldunn8972 Most of n64 consoles came with SuperMario 64, mine didn't, I've played super mario 64 but never owned one, awesome game!

Once you learn to bomb jump this game gets incredibly fun.
I mimic your “ What’s that!?!” when you are wondering about your next game is, when I am reviewing my analysts work that I manage (when they do it wrong).
3:13
The Assassin's Creed crossover we never knew we wanted.
Day 467 of appreciating Thab’s content. Nintendo will forever be my favorite game company for years to come.
that is the best game for n64, hands down. the amount of trick shots, jumps, bridges and stuff you can build is insane.
Your 64th game better have 64 in the title.
I barely own more than a dozen n64 games but somehow with this and the previous one you managed to get two of them in a row.

I didn't have a 64 when I was a kid so I really enjoy these. Thab never disappoints with his commentary.
Cards on that blue dragon is literally all I remembered from this game. The difficulty gap from the rest of the game and getting cards from bosses huge.
I seriously dont believe homie beat this when he was "6 or 7".
I know right! Word up! 👍🫵

This game was so hard and confusing when I was a kid
Can’t wait for Goemons Great Adventure. Such a fun game that a lot of people don’t know about
What a plot twist at the end... The second bomberman game in N64 is great too. Can't wait to see your review.
Great video, i love this series, hope your doing great 🙌
This game is awesome, the best Bomberman experience for single player

Have you already explained how you got your hands on every N64 game? Love the series, keep it up!

It looks like you didn't know how to kick bombs, and press, R to stop them. That might of made some of the bomb puzzles easier.
Me at the end : " Not another stupid sports game , not another stupid sports game " . "Baseball something !" Dammit !!
You aren't kidding about Rainbow Palace. I remember finally getting there and thinking "Yeah, right!"
"The enemies here are cards with weapons for some reason, it doesn't make much sense"
"So now there's a boss, the Spellmaker. He sends out cards to signify which attack he'll use" lol hmm...
Wow! I played this on SNES but never seen it on N64! Gonna enjoy this video!
This game is great, but Bomberman Hero is the one I played more, and can't wait to see here
I haven't played this game in years, but still remember how to get through every single level. The weirdest part is, I have no recollection of that fish boss fight at all. None. But everything else is still intact. So weird..
Nice vid thab! Can't wait for bomberman hero! It has an amazing soundtrack
Really wish I was first introduced to this game as a kid. Young bradwurst would have been blown away
One of the first games I beat was Kirby's Adventure on the NES and I remember that game very fondly.
I always considered Bomberman 64 to be "that game you play when you can't get your hands on Super Mario 64," and for my brother and I specifically "that game we played *because* we didn't have Mario 64 *and* Blockbuster was out of copies to rent."

Yeah you have to do that to get the gold cards
I remember beating this game, ill never forget it - a true classic
This was one of my mom's favorite games. She got all of the gold cards in the standard levels, but didn't get all of them in the Rainbow Palace.
That game was a lot cooler than I thought it would be. GG.
didn't knew about the 6th level. Amazing.
oh man I loved this game as a child and Blue Resort's theme is all time nostalgia for me
My friend and I played multiplayer on this for HOURS/DAYS when it came out.
Somehow missed this vid. Bomberman 64 is fun, relatively easy. Bomberman Hero is where the devs went a bit nuts and made it difficult. The pharaoh tank boss in the water level specifically.
definitely one of my all time favorites as a kid
I enjoyed this video so much. Thanks for the content!
Let's take a second to appreciate the gorgeous anti aliasing in this game. It's mind boggling that they achieved it with overall good framerates back then.
One of my favorite parts of Friday.
Thanks beast!
This N64 Challenge you are doing is awesome, I can't wait for Resident Evil 2, I'll definitely watch the full play through on your other channel!!
This game looks really sick. I would definitely play it if they added it to NSO.
The problem being: Konami.
It took me three main bosses to find out the remote bombs are remote.
Up until then I had to make bosses trigger the bombs as I didn’t know you could detonate them remotely.
I really recommend play this one in retroachievements, is so fun and have good challenging, also play the Bomberman 64 second attack and Bomberman Hero
Some of the best 4 player multiplayer in this game.
Can’t wait for The 2nd Attack! That was my ultimate Bomberman game
I never realized how much this game is more like Bomberman Hero than the other 2D bomberman games I feel like I would have loved this game as a kid
Wow I almost shed a tear,I miss this game
I’ve been waiting for bomberman to pop up! So excited
I'm really loving this series!! I can't wait for you to get to Mischief Makers! That's one of my favorites. I'm not sure if you've played that one.

I know he’s already passed this point on the streams, but the buildup to game number 64 is almost done!
@Boco Corwin I don’t watch the streams, so wait and see
@Boco Corwin robotron 64!
I was looking forward to this game love the music brings back memories good memories
Every Friday I look forward to this
I loved this game and it's one im looking to add to my collection again. I remember not being able to complete it to 100% because I could never find one thing
i love this so much
Just finished this game for the first time a few months ago. I think I would have liked it more if I had played it back in the day. Great series though. Can't wait for more.
I 100%ed this game back in the day. Squeezing all those gold cards can be tough.
The soundtrack to this is bustin
