@@Vulpas Sounds legit. It's very unlikely that a nuclear war would wipe out all humanity. Most people would simply starve during the long nuclear winter, and the clever ones with a good survival plan would start rebuilding.

One of my biggest wishes is that more video game OSTs get "restored" or have their demos with original instruments released, like Sonic 1 & 2, and Sonic 3D Blast. A channel called Church of Kondo had uploaded fan restores of SNES titles using the original samples for the instruments to reconstruct them, but there's so many games and cassettes and CDs and samples, that truly, these things are either in a vault cause of their lack of importance, or lost. Maybe they're used for reference for later renditions or remixes though, who knows.
I feel that but like with green screens, like think about it. There is a clean blue screen of Mario and Luigi doing the Do the Mario dance from the super mario bros super show.
Two 3DS things that's aren't exactly lost but are now unobtainable: there are Puzzle Swap boards that were both limited-time and location-based. You could only begin obtaining pieces on some boards by going to a specific location while they were active. One was started by visiting any Japanese McDonalds, and another for visiting one of three airports. Unlike normal boards, these boards are *not* tradeable if you haven't started the board yet, so they can't spread virally. If you didn't hop in a plane and travel to Japan for McNuggets last decade, you can never truly 100% Puzzle Swap. There were also boards in Nintendo Badge Arcade that don't seem to be in the rotation any more, including third-party franchises like Rockman and holiday-themed boards. This is even more of a big deal since every badge earned in Nintendo Badge Arcade actually has an external use in decorating your 3DS home menu. What's worse is these badges were *extremely* difficult to get without buying microtransactions: you only got a random limited number of Free Plays every day (usually just 1 or 2), board progress resets daily, and there'd often be at least one badge on the board that requires 3-5 plays in a single day. Not to mention only a handful of boards are available each day, so if a board you need isn't available on the day you happened to get 5 Free Plays, tough. I don't think there are many people who have full sets. There is a bit of an asterisk though: I've heard that people in Europe are still able to get the Rockman boards in rotation. It seems to be something region-specific. But in the US, no dice.
So your search for lost media led you to learning about the Sacred Treasures of Japan eh? Quite the twist lol. They're such a fascinating piece of history, you see them referenced so much in anime, One Piece fans for example will recognize the names of Kizaru's attacks all being directly named after the treasures. One theory is that the Imperial House of Japan holds onto them, really cool stuff to think about.

At 11:30, he's talking about the Three Sacred Treasures of Japan, very important artifacts in their culture, he just came across the topic while playing the game
There was a contest from Toy R Us in Canada where they officially gave away Mews to winner of scratch tickets. I can't remember if there were numbered ID's, but I do remember the original trainer name being a Japanese name, Yoshi or something. Wish I still had that save file...
We replaced our battery’s in our cartridges and jumped them with a wire keeping power connected at all times. I’ve replaced my Pokémon yellow battery three times now and I still have all my save data from when I was like 12 🤣
Goku in the Naruto Hokage outfit was a pre order bonus for Xenoverse that there is NO other way to obtain anymore. Special characters and outfits get locked behind preorders way too much.
Dead or Alive 5 had an Attack on Titan crossover DLC that included a unique stage. Not available anymore. There are also quite a few Guitar Hero 3 tracks that cannot be redownloaded. I only noticed it when I bought a new PS3 a couple of years back and tried to redownload my entire library.
I'm still upset I passed on the AoT costumes since I wasn't into the a one at the time, and the stage was exclusive to PS4/Xbone so you can't even get it through pirated copies on PC since that version was based on the original PS3/Xbox 360 versions DOA5 had a ton of collaboration costumes and a lot of them aren't available anymore. The Tatsunoko costumes in particular are completely unavailable anymore And Mai Shiranui from fatal fury/king of fighters is completely unavailable for purchase in DOA5 because she got added to DOA6 and they want you to buy her in that game instead
So many reuploads in this video. I don't know why you had to take down the original videos that had them. On top of that, the Zelda plushie one isn't present here, making that topic in your videos lost media in itself right now
11:30 Interestingly enough, that fourth game, Project Progressive, we actually know slightly more information about, despite it not having a name. The game actually has concept art available, and according to Itagaki, it was to have "a different type of action compared to Ninja Gaiden. It's unknown if the game's story would've been connected to the Ninja Gaiden/DOA universe, let alone what the plot would've entailed. Also technically, the pre-order costumes for DOA6 _can_ be obtained, but...only on PC/Steam, through "legally questionable" means 😏 I've been planning a video on DOA's lost content/DLC for a while, so I'm glad to see this come up again! Your local DOA nerd signing out lol
Old mobile ports really fascinate me. I really want to find one of the mobile versions of The Portopia Serial Murder Case, since the game was made by the creator of Dragon Quest and the art for the mobile remakes look really neat!
Ivw noticed on this channel specifically if I watch videos posted witheb the first few minutes the sound dosent work on mobile using youtube vanced. Other creators dont seem to have this problem. Perhaps its an issue with how youtube processes videos that are uploaded in a specific format ?(.mp4, .flv, whatever he uses )
I might have said this more than once, but I just wanna remind Lost Media geeks like you… I remember one time when I was in elementary school, my teachers showed cartoons and other videos. I remember very little about this experience, but the scariest thing I remember, was one time, my teacher showed a song about a letter from the alphabet. I thought it was the letter k or the letter j. It was low quality, at least avi level, and the song was quite normal. What happened after horrified me. The song zoomed out on a theater screen, and there was applause. There appeared to be a massive puppet, about the size of Big Bird, but it wasn’t him. It cut to its face, and I saw it. It was a green dragon, much like Dudley the Dragon or somebody like him. Only it looked like a cheap knockoff or bootleg. He had some purple on his body, but I don’t know if it was on his ears. I couldn’t tell if he had teeth or not, but I still remember the eyes. The pupils were vertical slits, much like a cat’s, but the rest of the eyes were white. I remember seeing the dragon in three videos. In the third video, it was a watercolor animation, like a theme song of sorts. I was horrified, and one day, the dragon was left on the screen. I had to put on my backpack and walk out while looking down so I wouldn’t get scared. I didn’t bring cameras or look up the videos, and I forgot the name of the show the dragon was on. Like I said, it isn’t Dudley the Dragon or Eureeka’s Castle, because I remember the theme having something like “learning to read” in the lyrics. I still think about that dragon to this day. I don’t think West Hills Elementary School has those videos anymore. I know those videos exist. I know they are real. I see that dragon sometimes in my dreams. Please, if anyone else knows or at least remembers this show, I would be happy to know.
There was a game called typing jet, basically jet set radio only for phones, but it was only released in Japan and for mobile technology released in the late 90's, which allowed compatible devices to connect to an online service, because of that, It only has images and doesn't have any more information about this game.
Also in Japan, their was three java minigames based off of Popee the Performer released for certain phones part of a subscription thing and was allegedly released 2 years after the show ended. Theirs only a few screenshots of it and no footage or rom has ever been found
I have searched for the Luigi's Mansion official beta disc, I know it exists somewhere as there are recordings of Shigeru Miyamoto holding said GameCube disc at a game convention and playing the beta itself, I love betas and I try to get them whenever possible, but Luigi's Mansion beta has been a hard one to find last I looked, been getting busy sadly so I haven't looked in some time but I'm thinking about looking again, fanmade recreations of the beta are being made and using gameshark you can access some of the beta elements through the final game whether on actual hardware or on an emulator, more and more beta elements are being discovered as time goes one, there's so much to Luigi's Mansion beta, but the beta disc is the real deal and so is the disc used for game trial cabinets on the game convention floor
I am so mad at myself. This is completely unrelated to this video but I just wanted to vent a little bit. When I was a kid I was a big fan of the show Kenny vs. Spenny, and I would go on their website to see what was up. I played Versusville for a bit, forgot about it and then lost my PC and my harddrive. I was looking for this game, even trying to make posts online but I was not familiar with the lost media community. Just one year before the game was brought up again and later found, I had tried to make a post about it on reddit, but it was declined because I didnt understand the subreddits rules on titles and what not. I even thought it was stupid of me to even ask. I wish I had started the search earlier and maybe, just maybe, I could've been that guy who initiated it.
I think I've only just discovered Hebereke just a few months ago, or maybe even some time last year, and have been wanting to give them a try myself. Here's hoping we can find the lost mobile ports of these classic titles! I do love these Super Mario history lessons cards especially with unique the art-style is compared to the rest of the Mario universe! Now we just gotta find the rest of them. Man, that really is a shame that those event costumes in Dead Or Alive 6 are no longer available (outside of maybe via hacking), as well as the unfortunate cancellation of action/adventure again "Dead Or Alive: Code Cronus". I've always been a massive fan of Japanese entertainment, and culture in general since practically my whole life, and it's really cool that Namco even made an arcade game in the late 1980's that's actually based on the Genpei War! Hopefully we can find all 3 of The Sacred Treasures Of Japan someday I would love to see them myself! The Street Pass on the Nintendo 3DS was definitely a neat feature that could let people interact with users, with the Gold-Pants Miis being available via the internet, or through Spot Pass, it was fun! And while it is a shame that the events are over, at least there's a way we can still get them again using a QR Code! We just gotta find that single missing 1 from Europe, and the rest from Japan. I do hate the Mew Pokemon is no longer available since the original 1996 event was over 20 years ago, and that the save batteries in the Game Boy cartridges are so old at this point that the saved Mews are most likely deleted (which is why I hate Pokemon exclusive events, and don't understand these types of Pokemon couldn't just be available from the beginning. As well as my taste for physical media as while I do still generally prefer physical media over digital media, it's not perfect, with deterioration being its biggest enemy), but, maybe somebody, somewhere has actually saved it, and we can finally see it. Another solid lost media, LSSQ! :D Can't wait for the next video!
I have a second copy of Blue Version that has not had its battery replaced and still saved games as recently as last year. RBY batteries last significantly longer than GSC since they don't have to constantly keep track of the in-game clock.
also a longshot, but memory cards were sold via magazines back in the day. I have one that I keep all my GB save files backed up on. then when a battery dies I just replace it and reload the save onto the cart. maybe someone could have done something similar with one of the Mews? just a thought
I got my yellow see through Memory Card Backup device from Toys R Us around 1999. It has all my Pokémon games backed up. Able to swap game backups for all of my RBY games from when I was 12-14. I think it was sold by action replay? Regardless, I got it & my GameShark at the same time. Bulky but worth it. Surprised my young self had the thought process to buy these/ask for them as birthday gifts
About the Mario Quiz cards, I know the Jwittz did a video on some that they owned a while back! I believe he mentioned that they were part of a subscription service and he doesn't have all of them but their collection is pretty neat!
Until Dawn has a DLC unlocked if you pre-ordered it. About 10 min of gameplay between Matt and Emily early in the game. Can't be purchased. The most obnoxious to me is P. T. and I'm thinking of it even more because of the announcement of new Silent Hill games.
21:27 - I'm not sure how different the battery save are in Game Boy games, but my copy of the 33-year-old Dragon Warrior for the NES still has its save files.
While Jaylein was previously the one who was finding all of the special miis I am the current person who is attemping to seek out more of them, I took over after they decided to step away to focus on other things
@@freebiedoesupscales No worries, definitely glad to have helped when you first started the whole archival project and definitely glad you've allowed me to take over for you to keep your project alive
Maybe trying to search for Japan-exclusive media using Japanese terms would help more, I guess. Searching for 携帯 移植版 turns up a few extant informations about the Hebereke ports, including press releases still online from 2003. Besides that, the fact that they were released on i-Mode mobile phones, and (as it turns out from the news) access was tied to a monthly fee with the provider (one named Shanghai i-Puzzle, managed jointly between those two companies in fact), poses the same problems with preservation as the other games released on the same platform (see for example what happened with Final Fantasy Before Crisis).
it makes sense that "typing jet" is a lost game, it was also released in i mode, wow, sega could have made this game better, it could have been released for java mobile.
A piece of lost media that may be interesting to check out: MySims Puzzle Party It's a Java Mobile puzzle game themed around MySims Party (the 3rd or 4th game in the MySims series [a spin-off of The Sims {a spin-off of SimCity}]) that released in 2010 only in South Korea (within a year of the final game in the MySims series). It is the only MySims game with microtransactions out of like 15-20 entries (the DS and Wii versions counted separately due to all being basically different games)
There are no Sonic CAFE Games Dumped tho. The Versions online are the Sonic CAFE i-Mode Versions. They're Java Remakes & ports released in the US & Europe. With the exception of Sonic Racing Kart, which was ported by TecToy to Java in only Spanish and Portuguese
last thing i expected to hear from one of these videos is that the 3 sacred treasures form Japan's history are not *known* to be found. i assumed the very detailed photograph of all 3 together WAS them from like a museum or something! did not expect to hear they have possibly been lost to time. feels like a subject you could make a modern day movie/game about.
Hey there, I found a high quality version of Sonic 06s trailer from a TH-camr by the name of Internet Video Dump. It was from 2015(where it was published) and it was from Tokyo game show 2005 (the actual trailer).
I love how people are talking about mobile Java games whilst ignoring the fact that EA have literally killed double and triple A games. I mean Jesus Christ, Blizzard just killed Overwatch 1. You can no longer play that game and people just say "there is Overwatch 2 though right?" Don't get me wrong, all games should be saved even the Java ones. But we need to raise awareness of games being butchered right in front of us. This is like if you watched your mom get gutted and instead of looking for the killer, you went to the graveyard and picked a gravestone from the 1800's; only to then research why they died.
I have 2 Games that I haven’t seen anyone talk about. 1. A Phone and IPad Game called “If” and it teaches kids how to handle mental health. You played as a young Anthro Dog and wandered around helping others, with the help of your mentor, a Sidekick that slips my mind, and Katnip/Catnip (a Anthro Cat that’s constantly mentioned as being sketchy). You had to calm and cleanse Elemental themed Creatures and try to unite the Anthro Cats and Anthro Dogs after years of them being separated. I can’t find any Roms of this, it’s that unknown. 2. Ducktales: Scrooge’s Loot, for Phones and Tablets and it was based off of the 80s Show. It’s a Shooter Game where you have to find Scrooge’s Money after it was stolen by his major antagonists. Launchpad is your tutorial guide and gives hints as you are revived.
I had Mario Quiz Cards!! I forgot all about them! Idk which ones I had or where they came from/went, but I think we had a small box of them for my sister and I
There's a Macross Frontier game, called Sagittarius 9pm. Don't be late, that was released physically for the PlayStation 3. There are at least 10 owners of the game, though only 1 is known. There has been zero information released about the game, nor about its availability. The only known owner is a person called Xilonen118, who has never responded to messages about the game.
I've known about the Three Sacred Treasures thanks to references in stuff like Okami, Kid Icarus, and Soul Calibur, but I had no idea they were Japan's equivalent of the Arc of the Covenant (both in terms of rarity and body horror).
About the mario cards, they were probably distributed by mail offers like my very similar Tintin cards, oh i would love to track back a mario set in a garage sale!
I *swear* that I saw LSuperSonicQ talk about Blast Wind for the SEGA Saturn at some point, but for the life of me I cannot see, to find it right now if the video even exists anymore to the public. Basically, the reason it was brought up was because the rumored story behind it was much more interesting: Apparently it started life as a test arcade game before it flopped, then they tried to basically humorize it way more for a second test which also failed, and now for the third and final version it is closer to the original but still changed some small elements, ultimately never ending up in an arcade release at all. Wether this is all true is a mystery, but what I *do* know is that I discovered it from him. I think it was from a video listing off some obscure things he knows about. For all I know at this point maybe the video portion in question never existed at all, but either way it's still an interesting thing to mention since the game itself is pretty good and that the story behind the supposed inception is weird.
I'm sorry the pic of luigi reading about WW2 is so morbidly hilarious to me, it's just so strange and jarring to see a mario character in something that talks about world tragedies like that
Would be cool if you did a video on the Japanese exclusive original DS gold edition I can't find any info on it. I only ever seen two listing on ebay for them but couldn't find any info online about.
This is not lost media, but I used to have a subscription to something called Elmo's Learning Adventure in the early 2010s. The things mailed would include cards, books, etc. It came with a box to store the cards, and I even had a backpack from it. The Mario cards kinda reminded me of them.
Another great one is the PCG Dosh Jacket for Foster in Killing Floor 2. Only those who had a very specific copy of pcgamer magazine for a specific month were able to get it, and it was WELL before launch for the game. I thankfully got one back in the day since I was a nerd with those magazines. I wear it in every match. They're all gone now, and I don't even think scalpers have any, anymore.
Can you talk about lost tie-in commercials? I know you don't like lost commercials, but I'm talking about lost tie-in commercials for companies like McDonald's or whatever that featured cartoon characters. With so many commercials made for Happy Meals, McDonald's probably has lost commercials.
I had a mew transferred to my Pokemon Blue cart by the UK magazine Official Nintendo Magazine. They held a tournament where the last battle was their editor and if you beat them you won a Mew to be received at a later date in my home city central shopping centre. My boyfriend had a lvl 100 Mewtwo and beat the editor no problem so got one and they also uploaded one onto my copy as well as I was with him when he collected his. I've since sold my copy of Blue so no longer have it and had completely forgotten about it until this video.
Cool, I didn't know there was video game lost media based on real world history. That's very cool and if it ever gets found I've be very happy due to how really awesome that sounds for sure! Also, how come you didn't talk about the Zelda plush that you talked about in your Very Rare Pieces of Lost Media from Nintendo video man?? Lastly, why did you private that video anyway man?
Although it's debatable whether or not this could be considered a video game, Silicon Motor Speedway was a NASCAR racing simulator in the 90s that would appear in shopping malls. They had full racing rigs that resembled that of a 90s cup car and were extremely ambitious at the time. Old videos of the simulator in use are on the internet, and some of the old racing rigs were recently rediscovered, but the actual simulator has yet to be found. Let alone dumped on the internet for people to use.
Some of the segments are as he deleted the original videos for some reason and decided to put the segments in different videos. Dead or Alive, the Mario cards, and Spotpass are all reuploads. Not sure if the others are too. Don’t remember the first one.
i know that the old GSC games had a limited internal battery and the file would die if the battery died, deleting all pokemon within - was RBY liek that? if so, then NONE of those mew can possibly exist. the batteries would be long dead, the files long gone with them.
If they had the Memory Card Adaptor (big yellow bulky thing that the game connects to, then the device goes into the game slot on the Gameboy), then it’s perfectly feasible. I have backups of every game save from my original RBY games. I know it came from toys r us and looks like a GameShark but can’t remember exactly when I got it. I was 12 when Red & Blue came out so I know it was between the release of those & Yellow.
It's kinda interesting that "three sacred treasures" reference became figure of speech so many times, even Korean culture is familiar with categorizing certain 3 things as "삼신기"(三神器 - Literally "3 sacred treasures")
Why are you recycling older videos into this? If you want to make a compilation it should clearly be a compilation, I shouldn't have to get partway through the video to realize I'm not just having super bad deja vu.
i haven't seen any lost media accounts talking about the found pitch/storyboard of the kingdom hearts tv show that never happened. hope you do something on it!
12:53 this is totally something that inspired Sakura Taisen / Sakura Wars in some way ( Sakura, the protagonist, have in her story on the second game where she is supposed to use 3 magical tools like this one to defeat the resurrected Lucifer )
Im having a similar situation to the mario quiz cards. There's a garfield cardboard cutout that I've had for a couple years now but I can't find it online. All I can really find is a mcdonalds toy of it and a similar looking cutout, which from what I can tell is from the same promotion. Here's a description of it along with some info thats written on the bottom: It is of garfield riding a red motorcycle thing with odie sitting in the back, and garfield has a thought bubble saying "Let's cruise!". It says on small text on the bottom that the copyright date is 1989 and it belongs to mcdonalds, along with some sort of code. I ALSO have 2 poster stickers of garf but I can only find one of them online but not the other one. They both have copyright dates of 1978.
Wow, this video has quite an amount of the strange promo footage that was dug up on NicoNico back in the day, huh? That used to be a good place to look for traces of retro game content and possible lost media
While I don't have legendary mew, one of my Pokémon games (can't remember if it was blue or yellow) did last long enough for me to dump one of the regular "visit a Nintendo event here in Canada" mews I got back in the 90s a few years ago, so I can say that a dead battery isn't guaranteed.
HotWheels Velocity X Gameboy Advance never was able to see the few hidden Locked Vehicles only unlockable through N64 connected to a gameboy as far as i know an 25yrs later its still a mystery to me in hopes to see what those cars are an look like

One of my biggest wishes is that more video game OSTs get "restored" or have their demos with original instruments released, like Sonic 1 & 2, and Sonic 3D Blast. A channel called Church of Kondo had uploaded fan restores of SNES titles using the original samples for the instruments to reconstruct them, but there's so many games and cassettes and CDs and samples, that truly, these things are either in a vault cause of their lack of importance, or lost. Maybe they're used for reference for later renditions or remixes though, who knows.
Totally agree, it was absolutely fascinating when some of the demos for Sonic 3D Blast got released by Gamehut.
I feel that but like with green screens, like think about it. There is a clean blue screen of Mario and Luigi doing the Do the Mario dance from the super mario bros super show.

The Sonic CD past tracks would be awesome to hear, Salad Plain Past is different from the original Palmtree Panic Past.

Two 3DS things that's aren't exactly lost but are now unobtainable: there are Puzzle Swap boards that were both limited-time and location-based. You could only begin obtaining pieces on some boards by going to a specific location while they were active. One was started by visiting any Japanese McDonalds, and another for visiting one of three airports.

There were also boards in Nintendo Badge Arcade that don't seem to be in the rotation any more, including third-party franchises like Rockman and holiday-themed boards. This is even more of a big deal since every badge earned in Nintendo Badge Arcade actually has an external use in decorating your 3DS home menu.

The fucking badge arcade was impossible without paying geez I remember that. They so desperately wanted you to gamble money there (also hi gamechamp)
Long shot..... could the Mario quizz cards be related to Mario's time machine??? Would make sense since that game is technically an educational game
That's a great thought, I actually had Mario is Missing immediately come to mind when I saw those cards.

I'm still upset I passed on the AoT costumes since I wasn't into the a one at the time, and the stage was exclusive to PS4/Xbone so you can't even get it through pirated copies on PC since that version was based on the original PS3/Xbox 360 versions
DOA5 had a ton of collaboration costumes and a lot of them aren't available anymore. The Tatsunoko costumes in particular are completely unavailable anymore
And Mai Shiranui from fatal fury/king of fighters is completely unavailable for purchase in DOA5 because she got added to DOA6 and they want you to buy her in that game instead
@@Ekraelum I mainly mentioned the level since it pissed me off more that I couldn't get all of the stages. haha
I actually bought the box for the Mario Quiz cards at a garage sale years ago. It didn’t have any cards in it but I still have the box!
I’d love more videos on lost historical artifacts
I have a whole bunch of ideas for that vid.
So many reuploads in this video.
I don't know why you had to take down the original videos that had them.
On top of that, the Zelda plushie one isn't present here, making that topic in your videos lost media in itself right now
This, exactly this! I had to skip entire sections just to see the actually new content!
I was wondering this too.
11:30 Interestingly enough, that fourth game, Project Progressive, we actually know slightly more information about, despite it not having a name. The game actually has concept art available, and according to Itagaki, it was to have "a different type of action compared to Ninja Gaiden. It's unknown if the game's story would've been connected to the Ninja Gaiden/DOA universe, let alone what the plot would've entailed.
Also technically, the pre-order costumes for DOA6 _can_ be obtained, but...only on PC/Steam, through "legally questionable" means 😏 I've been planning a video on DOA's lost content/DLC for a while, so I'm glad to see this come up again!
Your local DOA nerd signing out lol
Old mobile ports really fascinate me. I really want to find one of the mobile versions of The Portopia Serial Murder Case, since the game was made by the creator of Dragon Quest and the art for the mobile remakes look really neat!
Great video, as always!
Aww ur so cute!
Love your videos on Lost Media Sakura!
LOST MEDIA: THE SOUND
Update: I found it
Lost Media: your crown
Update: here you go king 👑
@@Anon-lu6ct thanks
Ivw noticed on this channel specifically if I watch videos posted witheb the first few minutes the sound dosent work on mobile using youtube vanced. Other creators dont seem to have this problem. Perhaps its an issue with how youtube processes videos that are uploaded in a specific format ?(.mp4, .flv, whatever he uses )
Lost Media: your clown
Update: sorry i'm late your highness
@@sweis12 It was like that on the regular youtube app too. Definitely a youtube issue
I might have said this more than once, but I just wanna remind Lost Media geeks like you…
I remember one time when I was in elementary school, my teachers showed cartoons and other videos. I remember very little about this experience, but the scariest thing I remember, was one time, my teacher showed a song about a letter from the alphabet. I thought it was the letter k or the letter j. It was low quality, at least avi level, and the song was quite normal. What happened after horrified me. The song zoomed out on a theater screen, and there was applause. There appeared to be a massive puppet, about the size of Big Bird, but it wasn’t him. It cut to its face, and I saw it. It was a green dragon, much like Dudley the Dragon or somebody like him. Only it looked like a cheap knockoff or bootleg. He had some purple on his body, but I don’t know if it was on his ears. I couldn’t tell if he had teeth or not, but I still remember the eyes. The pupils were vertical slits, much like a cat’s, but the rest of the eyes were white. I remember seeing the dragon in three videos. In the third video, it was a watercolor animation, like a theme song of sorts. I was horrified, and one day, the dragon was left on the screen. I had to put on my backpack and walk out while looking down so I wouldn’t get scared. I didn’t bring cameras or look up the videos, and I forgot the name of the show the dragon was on. Like I said, it isn’t Dudley the Dragon or Eureeka’s Castle, because I remember the theme having something like “learning to read” in the lyrics. I still think about that dragon to this day. I don’t think West Hills Elementary School has those videos anymore. I know those videos exist. I know they are real. I see that dragon sometimes in my dreams. Please, if anyone else knows or at least remembers this show, I would be happy to know.
There was a game called typing jet, basically jet set radio only for phones, but it was only released in Japan and for mobile technology released in the late 90's, which allowed compatible devices to connect to an online service, because of that, It only has images and doesn't have any more information about this game.
I was hoping that might be covered
Also in Japan, their was three java minigames based off of Popee the Performer released for certain phones part of a subscription thing and was allegedly released 2 years after the show ended. Theirs only a few screenshots of it and no footage or rom has ever been found
@@grizzlydinoAh, Popee The Preformer, A show I haven't heard of in a life time
I have searched for the Luigi's Mansion official beta disc, I know it exists somewhere as there are recordings of Shigeru Miyamoto holding said GameCube disc at a game convention and playing the beta itself, I love betas and I try to get them whenever possible, but Luigi's Mansion beta has been a hard one to find last I looked, been getting busy sadly so I haven't looked in some time but I'm thinking about looking again, fanmade recreations of the beta are being made and using gameshark you can access some of the beta elements through the final game whether on actual hardware or on an emulator, more and more beta elements are being discovered as time goes one, there's so much to Luigi's Mansion beta, but the beta disc is the real deal and so is the disc used for game trial cabinets on the game convention floor
I am so mad at myself. This is completely unrelated to this video but I just wanted to vent a little bit.
When I was a kid I was a big fan of the show Kenny vs. Spenny, and I would go on their website to see what was up. I played Versusville for a bit, forgot about it and then lost my PC and my harddrive. I was looking for this game, even trying to make posts online but I was not familiar with the lost media community. Just one year before the game was brought up again and later found, I had tried to make a post about it on reddit, but it was declined because I didnt understand the subreddits rules on titles and what not. I even thought it was stupid of me to even ask. I wish I had started the search earlier and maybe, just maybe, I could've been that guy who initiated it.
I love stodying while listening to your content
Now the sound is back?
I had those Mario trivia cards when I was a kid. Forgot all about them until seeing this video. Had no clue they were rare.
I think I've only just discovered Hebereke just a few months ago, or maybe even some time last year, and have been wanting to give them a try myself. Here's hoping we can find the lost mobile ports of these classic titles! I do love these Super Mario history lessons cards especially with unique the art-style is compared to the rest of the Mario universe! Now we just gotta find the rest of them. Man, that really is a shame that those event costumes in Dead Or Alive 6 are no longer available (outside of maybe via hacking), as well as the unfortunate cancellation of action/adventure again "Dead Or Alive: Code Cronus". I've always been a massive fan of Japanese entertainment, and culture in general since practically my whole life, and it's really cool that Namco even made an arcade game in the late 1980's that's actually based on the Genpei War! Hopefully we can find all 3 of The Sacred Treasures Of Japan someday I would love to see them myself! The Street Pass on the Nintendo 3DS was definitely a neat feature that could let people interact with users, with the Gold-Pants Miis being available via the internet, or through Spot Pass, it was fun! And while it is a shame that the events are over, at least there's a way we can still get them again using a QR Code! We just gotta find that single missing 1 from Europe, and the rest from Japan. I do hate the Mew Pokemon is no longer available since the original 1996 event was over 20 years ago, and that the save batteries in the Game Boy cartridges are so old at this point that the saved Mews are most likely deleted (which is why I hate Pokemon exclusive events, and don't understand these types of Pokemon couldn't just be available from the beginning. As well as my taste for physical media as while I do still generally prefer physical media over digital media, it's not perfect, with deterioration being its biggest enemy), but, maybe somebody, somewhere has actually saved it, and we can finally see it. Another solid lost media, LSSQ! :D Can't wait for the next video!
I have a second copy of Blue Version that has not had its battery replaced and still saved games as recently as last year. RBY batteries last significantly longer than GSC since they don't have to constantly keep track of the in-game clock.
also a longshot, but memory cards were sold via magazines back in the day. I have one that I keep all my GB save files backed up on. then when a battery dies I just replace it and reload the save onto the cart. maybe someone could have done something similar with one of the Mews? just a thought
I got my yellow see through Memory Card Backup device from Toys R Us around 1999. It has all my Pokémon games backed up. Able to swap game backups for all of my RBY games from when I was 12-14. I think it was sold by action replay? Regardless, I got it & my GameShark at the same time. Bulky but worth it. Surprised my young self had the thought process to buy these/ask for them as birthday gifts
@@FigmentForever yeah the yellow one is the same one i got! was an expensive ebay purchase but the peace of mind it bought me was worth it
@@oskarsodergren7033 it’s wonderful. Mine is 25* years old but still works perfectly. At least I was a careful kid
@@FigmentForever yup thats it, jeez even more expensive nowadays
I was just watching one of your videos when i saw the notification! I love some lost media videos while im doing homework
Always gotta listen to this guy on 1.25x speed
Not me but I do for RGT85, he drags vids to hit the 10m mark.
About the Mario Quiz cards, I know the Jwittz did a video on some that they owned a while back! I believe he mentioned that they were part of a subscription service and he doesn't have all of them but their collection is pretty neat!
Until Dawn has a DLC unlocked if you pre-ordered it. About 10 min of gameplay between Matt and Emily early in the game. Can't be purchased. The most obnoxious to me is P. T. and I'm thinking of it even more because of the announcement of new Silent Hill games.
If you’re still looking for 3D fighters I highly recommend the 2000s era Mortal Kombat games they’re fantastic
@@KKHell I salute you right back
Aww yeah! This is so interesting!!! Can't wait for the next video!
Yep sir
21:27 - I'm not sure how different the battery save are in Game Boy games, but my copy of the 33-year-old Dragon Warrior for the NES still has its save files.
peanutbutter gamer has the mario quiz cards! maybe you should try contacting him
While Jaylein was previously the one who was finding all of the special miis I am the current person who is attemping to seek out more of them, I took over after they decided to step away to focus on other things
Thank you for your efforts, Jerkass
@@freebiedoesupscales No worries, definitely glad to have helped when you first started the whole archival project and definitely glad you've allowed me to take over for you to keep your project alive
I feel like the term "lost media" is being used very very loosely sometimes
kinda
No shit
Sugoi Hebereke is on the Nintendo Switch Online game service in Japan.
Genpei Tomaden in the thumbnail? I'm in.
Maybe trying to search for Japan-exclusive media using Japanese terms would help more, I guess.
Searching for 携帯 移植版 turns up a few extant informations about the Hebereke ports, including press releases still online from 2003.
Besides that, the fact that they were released on i-Mode mobile phones, and (as it turns out from the news) access was tied to a monthly fee with the provider (one named Shanghai i-Puzzle, managed jointly between those two companies in fact), poses the same problems with preservation as the other games released on the same platform (see for example what happened with Final Fantasy Before Crisis).
it makes sense that "typing jet" is a lost game, it was also released in i mode, wow, sega could have made this game better, it could have been released for java mobile.
When you get time, go watch Grandma’s Boy; you might notice some “Lost Media” in there.
A piece of lost media that may be interesting to check out: MySims Puzzle Party
It's a Java Mobile puzzle game themed around MySims Party (the 3rd or 4th game in the MySims series [a spin-off of The Sims {a spin-off of SimCity}]) that released in 2010 only in South Korea (within a year of the final game in the MySims series). It is the only MySims game with microtransactions out of like 15-20 entries (the DS and Wii versions counted separately due to all being basically different games)
There are no Sonic CAFE Games Dumped tho.
The Versions online are the Sonic CAFE i-Mode Versions. They're Java Remakes & ports released in the US & Europe. With the exception of Sonic Racing Kart, which was ported by TecToy to Java in only Spanish and Portuguese
last thing i expected to hear from one of these videos is that the 3 sacred treasures form Japan's history are not *known* to be found.
i assumed the very detailed photograph of all 3 together WAS them from like a museum or something!
did not expect to hear they have possibly been lost to time.
feels like a subject you could make a modern day movie/game about.
Hey there, I found a high quality version of Sonic 06s trailer from a TH-camr by the name of Internet Video Dump. It was from 2015(where it was published) and it was from Tokyo game show 2005 (the actual trailer).
4:55 I remember seeing those in a peanut butter gamer video
I think i might have the Japanese Masuda Miion my Japanese 3DS. I’d have to check though.
I do actually have it! Though I don’t know how to upload it.
luigi and hitler are two different things I didn’t think I’d see in one image
I love how people are talking about mobile Java games whilst ignoring the fact that EA have literally killed double and triple A games.
I mean Jesus Christ, Blizzard just killed Overwatch 1. You can no longer play that game and people just say "there is Overwatch 2 though right?"
Don't get me wrong, all games should be saved even the Java ones. But we need to raise awareness of games being butchered right in front of us.
This is like if you watched your mom get gutted and instead of looking for the killer, you went to the graveyard and picked a gravestone from the 1800's; only to then research why they died.
...wtf
I have 2 Games that I haven’t seen anyone talk about.
1. A Phone and IPad Game called “If” and it teaches kids how to handle mental health. You played as a young Anthro Dog and wandered around helping others, with the help of your mentor, a Sidekick that slips my mind, and Katnip/Catnip (a Anthro Cat that’s constantly mentioned as being sketchy). You had to calm and cleanse Elemental themed Creatures and try to unite the Anthro Cats and Anthro Dogs after years of them being separated. I can’t find any Roms of this, it’s that unknown.
2. Ducktales: Scrooge’s Loot, for Phones and Tablets and it was based off of the 80s Show. It’s a Shooter Game where you have to find Scrooge’s Money after it was stolen by his major antagonists. Launchpad is your tutorial guide and gives hints as you are revived.
This is unbelievable I probably have a bunch if not maybe all of those special miis, my 3ds dates back to 2013
I had Mario Quiz Cards!! I forgot all about them! Idk which ones I had or where they came from/went, but I think we had a small box of them for my sister and I
Maybe there is some that can be considered lost
There's a Macross Frontier game, called Sagittarius 9pm. Don't be late, that was released physically for the PlayStation 3. There are at least 10 owners of the game, though only 1 is known. There has been zero information released about the game, nor about its availability. The only known owner is a person called Xilonen118, who has never responded to messages about the game.
Sadly, it's likely lost forever.
I've known about the Three Sacred Treasures thanks to references in stuff like Okami, Kid Icarus, and Soul Calibur, but I had no idea they were Japan's equivalent of the Arc of the Covenant (both in terms of rarity and body horror).
About the mario cards, they were probably distributed by mail offers like my very similar Tintin cards, oh i would love to track back a mario set in a garage sale!
To get sound to work you have to update the app, clear the app in memory then go back to this video. It works now
I *swear* that I saw LSuperSonicQ talk about Blast Wind for the SEGA Saturn at some point, but for the life of me I cannot see, to find it right now if the video even exists anymore to the public.
Basically, the reason it was brought up was because the rumored story behind it was much more interesting: Apparently it started life as a test arcade game before it flopped, then they tried to basically humorize it way more for a second test which also failed, and now for the third and final version it is closer to the original but still changed some small elements, ultimately never ending up in an arcade release at all.
Wether this is all true is a mystery, but what I *do* know is that I discovered it from him. I think it was from a video listing off some obscure things he knows about. For all I know at this point maybe the video portion in question never existed at all, but either way it's still an interesting thing to mention since the game itself is pretty good and that the story behind the supposed inception is weird.
I'm sorry the pic of luigi reading about WW2 is so morbidly hilarious to me, it's just so strange and jarring to see a mario character in something that talks about world tragedies like that
Would be cool if you did a video on the Japanese exclusive original DS gold edition I can't find any info on it.
I only ever seen two listing on ebay for them but couldn't find any info online about.
This is not lost media, but I used to have a subscription to something called Elmo's Learning Adventure in the early 2010s. The things mailed would include cards, books, etc. It came with a box to store the cards, and I even had a backpack from it. The Mario cards kinda reminded me of them.
Another great one is the PCG Dosh Jacket for Foster in Killing Floor 2. Only those who had a very specific copy of pcgamer magazine for a specific month were able to get it, and it was WELL before launch for the game. I thankfully got one back in the day since I was a nerd with those magazines. I wear it in every match. They're all gone now, and I don't even think scalpers have any, anymore.
Great video love to see a part 2
Can you talk about lost tie-in commercials? I know you don't like lost commercials, but I'm talking about lost tie-in commercials for companies like McDonald's or whatever that featured cartoon characters. With so many commercials made for Happy Meals, McDonald's probably has lost commercials.
I had a mew transferred to my Pokemon Blue cart by the UK magazine Official Nintendo Magazine. They held a tournament where the last battle was their editor and if you beat them you won a Mew to be received at a later date in my home city central shopping centre. My boyfriend had a lvl 100 Mewtwo and beat the editor no problem so got one and they also uploaded one onto my copy as well as I was with him when he collected his. I've since sold my copy of Blue so no longer have it and had completely forgotten about it until this video.
Cool, I didn't know there was video game lost media based on real world history. That's very cool and if it ever gets found I've be very happy due to how really awesome that sounds for sure! Also, how come you didn't talk about the Zelda plush that you talked about in your Very Rare Pieces of Lost Media from Nintendo video man?? Lastly, why did you private that video anyway man?
The audio for this video is now lost media
That thumbnail caught me off gaurd💀
school would have been better if we all could have studied with Mario Quiz Cards
Happy Halloween lsupersonicq
mew looked like it got ran over by a truck in the first games
Although it's debatable whether or not this could be considered a video game, Silicon Motor Speedway was a NASCAR racing simulator in the 90s that would appear in shopping malls. They had full racing rigs that resembled that of a 90s cup car and were extremely ambitious at the time. Old videos of the simulator in use are on the internet, and some of the old racing rigs were recently rediscovered, but the actual simulator has yet to be found. Let alone dumped on the internet for people to use.
the thumbnail is insane
Man. The mii thing on 3ds was so cool. Sad it's over
Those characters from that Sunsoft game also appeared in Lemmings in the level Sunsoft Special.
Is this a reupload? Feels like I've seen this before
Some of the segments are as he deleted the original videos for some reason and decided to put the segments in different videos.
Dead or Alive, the Mario cards, and Spotpass are all reuploads. Not sure if the others are too. Don’t remember the first one.
@@thegekkoguy189 ah, werid it just seems like he loses views instead of gaining them
i know that the old GSC games had a limited internal battery and the file would die if the battery died, deleting all pokemon within - was RBY liek that? if so, then NONE of those mew can possibly exist. the batteries would be long dead, the files long gone with them.
and i highly doubt somebody from 1996 would have the means or even knowledge to back up a save file digitally...
Yeah, RBY has a battery save. However, Pokémon Stadium does not, and is capable of storing Pokémon.
@@thehat4284 ohh, forgot about stadium! Thats a good point. It could possibly be on a stsdium 2 if they put it to gsc as well
If they had the Memory Card Adaptor (big yellow bulky thing that the game connects to, then the device goes into the game slot on the Gameboy), then it’s perfectly feasible. I have backups of every game save from my original RBY games. I know it came from toys r us and looks like a GameShark but can’t remember exactly when I got it. I was 12 when Red & Blue came out so I know it was between the release of those & Yellow.
@@FigmentForever oh i didnt know they had ganesharks and etc way back then! Ty for the correction, helps to know.
I have a handful of those Mario quiz cards. I will try to find them and see if any of them are unscanned. I have the means to scan them if so.
the only golden Mii I have is Iwata-san. But looks like you guys already have him ^^
It's kinda interesting that "three sacred treasures" reference became figure of speech so many times, even Korean culture is familiar with categorizing certain 3 things as "삼신기"(三神器 - Literally "3 sacred treasures")
Why are you recycling older videos into this? If you want to make a compilation it should clearly be a compilation, I shouldn't have to get partway through the video to realize I'm not just having super bad deja vu.
😭
i haven't seen any lost media accounts talking about the found pitch/storyboard of the kingdom hearts tv show that never happened. hope you do something on it!
12:53
this is totally something that inspired Sakura Taisen / Sakura Wars in some way ( Sakura, the protagonist, have in her story on the second game where she is supposed to use 3 magical tools like this one to defeat the resurrected Lucifer )
Im having a similar situation to the mario quiz cards.
There's a garfield cardboard cutout that I've had for a couple years now but I can't find it online. All I can really find is a mcdonalds toy of it and a similar looking cutout, which from what I can tell is from the same promotion.
Here's a description of it along with some info thats written on the bottom:
It is of garfield riding a red motorcycle thing with odie sitting in the back, and garfield has a thought bubble saying "Let's cruise!".
It says on small text on the bottom that the copyright date is 1989 and it belongs to mcdonalds, along with some sort of code.
I ALSO have 2 poster stickers of garf but I can only find one of them online but not the other one. They both have copyright dates of 1978.
Can you make vid about infamous lost media? Good example is Cosy Corner
Wow, this video has quite an amount of the strange promo footage that was dug up on NicoNico back in the day, huh? That used to be a good place to look for traces of retro game content and possible lost media
Here before the video gets deleted for having no sound
That thumbnail has meme potential
0:49 UNFORTUNATELY!?! ISN’T IT GOOD THAT IT’S NOT LOST MEDIA???
Dang I had the gold pants miis. Then I factory reset my 3ds because I started modding it.
Great video LSSQ
Finally there's sound
While I don't have legendary mew, one of my Pokémon games (can't remember if it was blue or yellow) did last long enough for me to dump one of the regular "visit a Nintendo event here in Canada" mews I got back in the 90s a few years ago, so I can say that a dead battery isn't guaranteed.
Thanks JWItts for showing/talking the Mario quiz cards
This type of videos are the reason why youtube is great for long form type of content tbh
HotWheels Velocity X Gameboy Advance never was able to see the few hidden Locked Vehicles only unlockable through N64 connected to a gameboy as far as i know an 25yrs later its still a mystery to me in hopes to see what those cars are an look like
