    Okay but imagine unlocking or achieving something in a game and getting a physical sticker for it. That'd be awesome. "Yeah bro I have the 'Dark Soul' sticker".

      Yeah, its a neat idea but not a new one. Printable certificates was a 90’s/00’s thing kids games did on PC. I remeber several living books and disney games doing just that

      Id have loved that with the gameboy... Pokemon red blue yellow but you had a physical pokedex looking notepad with 151 pages, and when you found a new pokemon you could print the pokedex entry and stick it in your pokedex, or even just print pictures of charizards and stick them to every available surface..

      ​@@Colt45hatchback the game boy did have a printer addon. And a camera, and a sonar for finding fish. The game boy printer wasn't in color, but why would it be? I don't think they were stickers either.
      Oh, sorry Ashen(s) COLOUR.
      Are you happy I added a "u" to the word color? I'm so tolerant of different cultures that I'm willing to spell like an idiot (an American idiot. In UK I would be spelling like a champion bee-wrangler. Like I was Nicholas Cage and I had bees all over my head. That's how I spell)

      I have a Hello Kitty thermal printer which enables me to print out my own stickers from my phone. I now have the coveted Bloodborne 3 achievement, that I earned playing the PS7 version in the future.
      But do you think that gets me laid?!? The sticker, no. The printer, yes.
      Nobody needs a sticker for an achievement for a console that only 8 people own. You're already a mega-Chad for owning the stupid console, printing out cheevo stickers for that console drops you back into the weirdo category. All your friends are earning Dark Souls cheevos (digital, TBH) while you bust out your coveted sticker cheevos for a game that nobody heard of. Besides, do you really want to pay $100 more for the PS5 just because they slapped a stupid crappy printer inside? A printer that will only accept $70 ink cartridges made by Sony elves, which hold 10ml of ink and dry out prematurely due to the heat and air flow of the APU\fan? No, that's a terrible idea. Look at the Game Boy printer \ fish finder sonar if you want an idea for a useless peripheral that maybe could have printed out stupid sticker cheevos.
      Side note: why a printer for a portable console, and no printers for normal consoles? Because gamers don't want printers.
      Nobody gets laid due to stickers. It's the Hello Kitty thermal printer that is the pussy magnet. I have to beat the women off with sticks. Small, fragile sticks. I'm not a monster.

      I was just thinking that it's the same basic idea behind photo modes in modern games. The Loopy was weirdly ahead of the time, if I was a kid with access to modern photo modes I'd have wasted so much printer ink.

  • @pryingeyes1551
    @pryingeyes1551 7 ปีที่แล้ว +99

    So the game teaches you how to train your puppy, that training takes a lot of dedication, that having a puppy is a responsibility, but also that he can fly if his ears are large enough. I'm getting kind of a mixed message.

    Holy shit my sister actually had this when we were kids. Was not expecting to see it on this channel :D
    Bow-Wow Puppy Love Story is actually pretty fun. No joke, it's a cute little RPG with story elements not too serious but still isn't afraid to get real at times, especially the final dungeon where your friends sacrifice themselves one by one to let you continue to the final boss (they're all fine at the end but holy shit it's a seriously darker tone than what the rest of the game is like).

    • @DragonHeartHisMajestyX
      @DragonHeartHisMajestyX 2 ปีที่แล้ว +21

      @TrinixDMorrison I know it's 4 years late, but guess what? Turns out that one person that worked on Bow Wow Puppy Love Story/Wan Wan Aijo Monogatari actually worked on the original Final Fantasy on NES. I wish I was joking.

    • @DragonHeartHisMajestyX
      @DragonHeartHisMajestyX หลายเดือนก่อน

      Also, even MORE surprising! Recently as of October 11, 2024, I just discovered the developer of both Wan Wan Aijo Monogatari AND the Dream Change game were developed by the same company that developed Godzilla: Kaiju Daikessen on Super Famicom. I shat bricks when I saw that.

    @RadJordy 7 ปีที่แล้ว +324

    To be completely fair and honest, the graphics look really nice. The hardware of the 32x could do a lot of nice looking 2D sprite art. Shame it wasn't really utilized properly past a few notable examples like Knuckles' Chaotix.

      @d3v1lsummoner 7 ปีที่แล้ว +28

      Yeah, the sprite art is nice, especially the animation in Puppy Love Story, but by the time the Loopy came out, the Saturn, which had superior 2D capabilities, was already on the Japanese market. Then again, I'm sure the average sticker enthusiast didn't care about that.

    • @Yeen125
      @Yeen125 7 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      It also doesn't help anything in the Loopy's favor that the Japanese economy was undergoing a major recession at the time and that families weren't gonna spend the equivalent of hundreds of dollars on a fancy sticker printer.

    How to entertain girls according to Casio Loopy:
    step 1 add a sticker printer
    step 2 instruct them to slap stickers on things
    step 3 watch the streets of Japan become a terrorized area of Stickers, earning the name Stickerland of the Forgotten.

    • @Otome_chan311
      @Otome_chan311 5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      For context, the "printing stickers" thing ended up being a fad/trend in Japan among young girls called purikura which now take photos of you and print the pic. The Loopy was capable of that as well but came out a bit before the purikura craze, making it a trendsetter in that area.
      So yes, that's exactly how you appeal to young japanese girls (and young western girls too as I personally loved stickers as a kid).

Because the Singularity is more powerful than the Shld Prtble AND it supports most Shield games out of the box. However some will require root to access. Thankfully though, JXD themselves offer ways to root the Singularity and to access the Shield Hub to use both Geforce Now and NVIDIA's official Game-stream, PC game streaming.
