Remaking an old video game is a really tricky situation, it’s not just making the same game just with better visuals, you have to add improvements to things that made the original versions flawed.
Some succeed while others failed. Not to mention sometimes games may get remade that don't really need to treatment at all. Which is why I call game remakes a blessing and a curse in my own comment.
@@shadowlinkbds some examples of good remakes are: Kirby Super Star Ultra, Resident Evil 2, Spyro Reignited Trilogy, and Mega Man Powered-Up!
Their also the writing and voice acting stuff, especially with rpg
Meanwhile keeping what made it good to START with.
@@alvaroperez2349 don't forget half life black mesa.
Loving how Ari hijacked the countdown when it was time to talk about Pokémon.
😆😆😆
Or more specifically her all time fave region Johto XD
My biggest letdown for oras was a lack of a battle frontier. Not even the battle tower either, just something brought over from Kalos. The same complaint could also be said about bdsp.
@@MegaMilesprower Oh man you're right! And they added an Emerald bit, the heck GAME FREAK?
pokemon is her jam ^^ that's normal type
I officially declare Josh and Ari the #1 Gaming Power Couple.
I second this
Third this statement
FOOOOOURTH X3
And they're having twins!
@@ForrestFox626 TWINS?!
Literally Josh's entire 1st season countdown lists need remakes
Seriously; Most of them didn't age well at all.
Best he stays away from overrated games though. That word could easily be falsely used to vent against something popular just because the person don't like it. No matter how good the intentions are, the influence can and will be really bad. Look at the dozens and dozens of overrated pokemon lists for instance. *_shivers_*
Ari knew exactly what kind of fire she was starting. And we love her for it.
A remake of Top 15 most hated characters list. It be nice to see how his opinions have changed since then (Well except for one character whose name rhymes with "Blaster Rat Who-near")
@@princeali1639 i don't get it
There's something amazing about watching Ari ignite the fuse to the bomb that is Josh's old countdowns and then just walk away.
you know what should have been at least an honorable mention: the Spyro Reignited trilogy. The original 3 spyro games on the PS1 were a big part of my childhood, and to get to relive those memories with modern visuals, and new and better voice acting, makes me feel very nostalgic.
debateably those are remasters. It's the exact same games with as approximate the same gameplay as possible with minor differences. There's no added content, or really anything changed besides polishing things.
@@lilsunny7399 well here's hoping they appear in the top 10 remasters
But the Electric Gremlin things don’t sound like actual Spongebob anymore.
What we also need is a Remake/Remaster of the Legend of Spyro as well.
I recently started playing the Reignited trilogy myself. It's actually my first time playing any Spyro game, and I must say I'm really enjoying it.
If there's any countdown I would like to see remade, it's Top 15 Craziest Characters. That video was what drew me into the channel and been a fan since. Been 12 whole years, so I'd love to see it brought into modern day and see who takes the slots this time
Flowey would definitely be on there. Calling it now
Goro Majima
Mafia 1 definitive edition is one of the most well designed remakes I've ever seen. The facial animations add so much personality to the characters, the new battle theme carries a Lietmotif of the game's main theme, the moral was changed, and the car bomb scene was improved.
My honorable mentions:
Crash Bandicoot N Sane/Spyro Reignited Trilogy
I’m glad that both of these guys got the respect they deserve after Skylanders ended.
Donkey Kong 1994
This Gameboy port takes the arcade classic and turns it into an amazing platformer.
Ducktales Remastered
The characters are voiced by their original actors, the artwork is all hand drawn and the music is just amazing. Now that’s what I call a duck blur.
SpongeBob Battle For Bikini Bottom Rehydrated
My all time favorite licensed game with a beautiful new coat of paint. Also, if Josh ever does a Top 10 Licensed Games List, this game should be on it.
Zelda Ocarina Of Time/Majora’s Mask 3D
Two of Link’s greatest adventures on the N64 are now handheld.
You know, I would love to see you and Alex team up one last time and remake your most hated characters list. I still love the old one, but it would be fun to see if any of them have changed.
That ending was so much funnier than it had any right to be! LMAO
I'd like to mention Yakuza Kiwami 2 here. Not only did the graphics improve leaps and bounds with the Dragon Engine, they added so much extra content it's a whole nother game!
Lmao as soon as Ari shows up more hijinks occur and I love the way she takes over. NEVER CHANGE ARI!!!!
I'm surprised Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia wasn't on this list. Granted, despite being a remake it didn't change too much during the meat of the story aside from adding a prologue and new characters like Ferdinand, Conrad and Berkut. Outside of that, Alm and Celica's stories remanded the same though more heart tugging as we have more context for things and the characters are fleshed out. I still tear up reading Sonya and Genny's supports. The game also had a mild post game that offered lore about Archenea that may seem like something new only to turn into the Fell Dragon. That's probably where most points come in as anything else is DLC, mild alterations or locked behind the game's related Amiibos. I still would have at least had it as an honorable mention.
As for HGSS, I agree that it was the best remake with FRLG coming in second if only for the Sevii Isles, something ALL GEN 1 REMAKES SHOULD HAVE. I can't even be mad that the Sevii Isles weren't in HGSS because there's so much already. If we get another Gen 2 remake, would I like them be unlocked in the Kanto section? Certainly. It'd be a fantastic way of expanding the world while also making it home to more other region Pokemon. I think HGSS thrives because it not only makes the game beautiful(while also kicking Kris to the curb and giving Gold a false name) but it adds new themes, new scenes and the Suicune plot from Crystal as a subplot for the remakes. Hell, a highlight is always seeing how they flesh out Silver even without the Celebi event. They added a double battle event where you and Silver battle Clair and Lance and upon winning, you and Silver are not only still rivals but more akin to friends. Is he still going to be an ass? Sure but he's only doing it because he knows you can take it and you know he really cares now. ORAS at one point was in the runnings for best PKMN remake but as stated here it has higher highs and lower lows, one of which for me was the Safari Zone being turned into another route as I loved the OG Safari Zone and spent literal hours in there in Ruby. There were also less Emerald elements and while yes there were two teams so that would be harder, making the Safari Zone the Emerald Safari Zone and having encounters only in Emerald would have been nice. The biggest kick in the teeth was no proper battle Frontier and instead the Kalos bootleg. I would have been happier with just the Battle Tower honestly. I think what stung more is that I was hyped as hell for the game being someone who first played a Hoenn game and despite hoping for HGSS styled remakes I got copy paste Ruby and Sapphire with things removed. Which is sad as I liked how it looked.
I think, like that British Hare Plumber once said, Firered/Leafgreen did so much to improve Pokemon Red/Blue to make it playable and really set the standard. I’ve also heard my fair share of praises from people who played ORAS, but there’s a reason so many look back at HGSS so fondly, me included! Sure, the original Gold and Silver aren’t as unplayable as the original, but the fact is, HGSS did all of what Gold and Silver did, but BETTER.
Love at the end when ari asked which of joshs old video game company mess up list should be remade the way he screamed ari remains me of the Flintstones
You think Josh likes Live A Live? I think Josh likes Live A Live.
And I can't blame him, it's a bloody FANTASTIC game!
I agree!
Agreed
Thank you for mentioning Super Mario 64DS! So many people just downgrade that remake so much. It was one if my favorite childhood DS games and it's always a pleasure to go back to. Glad to hear someone actually liking it as much as I did growing up.
I'm so happy to see Samus Returns on here! I watched all of the other good Metroid games on TH-cam this year in timeline order, but a friend of mine had Samus Returns, so I decided to borrow it from him and play it instead of just watching it, and man, am I glad I did. Some of the big boss fights were pretty challenging, but I love the music and the environmental exploration, and playing as Samus felt just as empowering as I thought it would.
It is CRIMINAL that more people don't know about the Donkey Kong Country remakes for the Game Boy Advance. One of my favorite video game series from my childhood, made PORTABLE, with new music, new minigames, new bosses, and a new WORLD for DKC3! The only negative parts, in my opinion, are some of the reused sound effects for DKC3, the fact that you have to pay Banana Coins to replay boss levels in DKC2, and the added hoops you have to jump through for 100% completion in DKC3.
one of my first personal games and first for the (then) shiny new gameboy advance, ah good ole' DKC gba!
Ari, you clever little… you gave me the exact opportunity I needed!!! I NEED to know if Josh’s Top Ten Pokémon have changed!!!
I was a Pokemon fan raised spoiled, since my first Pokemon game was Alpha Sapphire. Knowing that it (technically if you squint) made it to No.1 fills me with a sense of pride, since I played that game FOR SO LONG.
Yeah, either I *REALLY* loved that game or I was a massive idiot to attempt 100% completion.
I'd say massive love... I'm goin for 100% dex on that one myself. That's gonna take a loooong time
@@TSLsmokey I wish you the best of luck.
19:55 Honestly, what I liked the most about this remake was the art style they went with. It retains the pixel appearance while giving a 3D feel. Honestly, makes me want a PMD: Explorers remake in this style over Rescue Team DX's modern 3D.
And yeah, it reminded me of Gen IV and V Pokémon.
Really happy to see someone else finally give Twin Snakes some well deserved credit! I've heard all the reasons why the original is superior, and 95% of them can be boiled down to plain nostalgia in my opinion. It's easily one of the most fun games on the GC, and it's a shame that so many fans have a bad impression of it considering it improves on the original in almost every way.
Nice finish. Ari should make an appearance on every Pokemon entry, like when you talked about Whitney’s miltank in your difficulty spikes list.
The only thing that could make this appearance better is sprinkling in some puns.
HeartGold and SoulSilver are perfect imo. Johto is, and always will be, my favorite Pokémon region and generation.
I hope the Legacy of Kain series gets a remake/remaster someday, as well as a sequel!
I like how you used horror movie remakes at the intro. As a slasher fanatic that brought me so much joy.
The funny thing with game remakes is they're kind of the opposite of film remakes. You're much more likely to find a game remake that's either as good as or better than the original whereas with film remakes, there are some that outdo the original, but most of them don't.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 is a fantastic remake in my opinion. The leap shows quite clearly with the stuff you can do that you couldn’t in the original, not to mention how detailed the character customization is now. Hat’s off to Vicarious Visions for that.
Josh the more you talk about the Ys series gets me more excited that one of these lists will finally have one of the Trails Games on it.
Gee, Josh! I thought you were the one who wore the pants in this household!
Also, to answer Ari's question... The Top 10 Saddest Video Game Moments. The saddest part of that video is that the first half of the video (the one on Alex Rochon's channel) doesn't have any sound in it, so we miss out on over half of the sadness that we're suppose to be experiencing.
Arie You beautiful glorious devious woman! You and Josh deserve each other! And I wholeheartedly wish long happy lives for both of you!
FINALLY MARIO 64 DS GETS THE CREDIT IT DESERVES!
22:27 I feel your pain. I was doing everything right until I realized I made a one mistake, and I had to start all over again!
I feel like the Yakuza Kiwami games deserved a mention. As they not only improved the voice acting from the PS2 games, but made the overall system better by using a similar engine to Yakuza 0. Sure they can feel grindy at times, but then again, what Yakuza game isnt?
one thing I also like is that since 0 itself is a really good entry point story wise, the Kiwami duo took advantage of that by having some new side content that calls back to the shenanigans both Kiryu & Majima ended up in during their early adventures like some of the new Majima conversations using context from Majima's story.
Nice that Live a Live got the bronze! Really though,having played the original game via the fan translation a few times over,myself...the hype train I got on was going full speed ahead,wailing the whistle every so often
And when it came out...oh boy did it not disappoint,with the remade visuals,audio,reimaginings and expansions of the maps from the original...and especially that twist at the end,when I thought all was said and done like in the original!
(If you wanna know what I'm talking about,either look it up yourself,or play the game,since I'm not spoiling anything)
having not played the original myself but having it at least on my radar thanks to me & friends liking to talk niche games, going from "there's a name I never thought I'd see again" to "BEST FINAL BOSS EVER" was something.
These top 10 list just get more fun and interesting to watch
Been following this channel for nearly two years
What a list… I agree with everything in this list… excelent video! Keep up the great work!!!
Hm, a very interesting list, fair and valid points and opinions, i wonder what kind of Remakes we’ll see next?
I will look forward to see what you come up with next.
Remake versus remaster... so there was a difference
10. I can see why it ranked at the bottom. This was my first foray into this game while I did know about the twist.
9. Well I never heard of the original and I could see why
8. Well done on giving some background on the games that never made it westward
7. Retro Studio's revived the franchise with this game. I was really lucky to be a fan at that point
6. Saw the let's play by GS and it was well worth it
5. Yeah, I'm with you Josh. I never completed the game, but I see the DS remake as better.
4. This remake is MINDBLOWING! Almost as much as the current smash run
3. Was this the inspiration for this list? Maybe...
2. Now if only the third game was half as good as this one...
1. Excellent choice Josh! Oh also hi Ari!
They did such a good job with Samus Returns that they basically got the go ahead to basically continue the series with Dread which is the best of Metroid we got since Super Metroid.
I'm so glad that Ys got some spotlight here. It's an underrated series
You mentioned “the last story”~
I loved that game~❤️
Ctr nitro fueled is definitely one of my favorites.
Love you so much for including Ys in these newer countdowns dude
I haven’t been here in SOOOOO long
I love watching the old YT ogs
Ari is such a troll and I love her for that XD
One thing I love about Final Fantasy 7 remake over the original (at least so far) is how they portray Cloud. Imo, it did a much better job at portraying him as a socially awkward dork trying his best to be a stoic badass.
I know that’s what they were going for in the original, but I don’t think it really appeared that way until near the end. At least that’s what it felt like to me anyway
I loved the Aria segment.^^
2:58 the fact that waking up from a dream will retcon everyone your imagination made for the dream is a really creative take on the repercussions of the cliche "dream all along" twist. sorry for the run-on sentence lol
Personally I would add Megaman Maverick Hunter X as a good remake. It polished up the graphics, gave the bosses more personality that made fighting them more enjoyable/tragic, and the voice acting was amazing with X and Zero’s voice being the highlights. Though the Megaman series is one near and dear to my heart so I’m a bit bias there.
While I love Oath in Felghana and think that it's easily one of the best Ys games by far, the footage used in its section was for a completely different Ys III remake that also came out on the PS2 that was made by a different developer.
I'm not sure how that footage made it into the video considering that the remake shown (made by Taito for the ps2) is obscure, even by Ys standards, and is very different from what Josh is describing. From what I have heard, it is also not nearly as good as Oath in Felghana and might be worse than the original to play.
I would love a remake of the musical battles list!
I love love love the fact that the caps from mario 64 were changed to a different power flower power for each player character
I knew, I _just knew_ Live A Live would be here. IT'S SO GOOD.
29:56 well Josh, you said you needed the content, and by the Mankey's paw, she delivered it to you.
*nods to Josh's list and fangirls with Ari over pokemon* Love the vid and I actually have played a solid 80% of these so agreeing with the updates done on the newer vers is easy to do since I experienced them myself too~!!! ARI YA QUEEN!!! SONG VIDS PLEASE!!! Listening to Josh talk about music is always a treat and cuz Josh+Music=New Playlist~~!!
I am so glad that I made sure to get my hands on the MGS: Twin Snakes for my Game Cube. Probably going to go play it again now that I watched this episode. (Missed the release due to being on Deployment.)
The top 10 music battles need a remake. Add 8 mile to that list.
Was very happy to see twin snakes on here. Definitely my favorite way of playing the old PS1 classic
Well we are closing in on the end of 2022 so I wouldn't be surprised if there was a... Top 10 gaming fails of the year video.
I do have a idea for one of the entries, if it is happening,. And if it is, then the entry in question hits a little close to home with one of my favourite gaming franchises.
A video remake I’d like to see is the music battle countdown. Granted TH-cam’s copyright bots might not like that one.
I had an idea for a video. Would you do one on evil organizations? Ranking them by their theme, efforts, progress, and on their successes and failures? There are so many villain groups throughout games and it can even be separated between single games having many groups or franchises with more focuses. It can even Segway into a failed subordinates list of henchmen who fundamentally failed without player intervention and why they stick around anyways or are dealt with, and maybe a pitty factor.
I would love a Remake of the Top 10 Music Battles. XD
If Ari and Josh were seriously asking, I want them to rethink their Top 5 Non-Disney villain songs!
😎
I Need A Hero from Shrek 2 should have been an Honorable Mention because it is a cover of an already existing song, and I’m debating whether his number one pick should qualify since it didn’t make it into the finished film.
🧐
Also, watch some hand-drawn non-Disney movies this time! There was seriously no room on your list for the villain songs from The Prince Of Egypt, The Swan Princess, Ferngully, or Anastasia?!
🤨
Where is that meme in the Ys section of the video from? I've it before in SMG4 videos, but I don't know where it's from.
"Which one of Joshes list need to be remade?"
Oh hohohohohoho, all of the ones being suggested are all good contenders!
Josh, I appreciate you talking about Oath in Felghana, but how did you end up using footage from the PS2 Taito release instead of the actual game? It doesn’t even have the same name.
Omg I started playing Pokémon on HeartGold and SoulSilver, I was 9 when they came out! I fell in love with them then, and I still love them now. If there was any game I would argue for a modern re-master of, it would be those two. Good to see I’m not the only one who loves them so much!
Josh the moment you mentioned Pokémon ney the Johto region of HeartGold and SoulSilver you should've known Ari would've swooped in and steal your Thunder especially when Gen 2 is her baby XD
And oooh the choices for a remake. How do I pick!?
I am very happy that you frequently mention the YS series, I really like it but it’s not very well known in the West, it should deserve more
I will have to agree completely with Ari that SoulSilver and HeartGold needs a Switch version. I love the remakes of Kanto, Hoenn and Sinnoh, but the Jotho region has to be next!
I am so happy my favorite Pokemon game was #1. And Ari, great Pokemon segment as always.
Next, we need a remake of Pokmon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time/Darkness/The Sky
Or really just a remake of Sky
Yes ! Tales of Destiny Remake is here ! You're the best , Josh !
I love Ari. Her ability for chaos is just "yus queen!" levels that I can only hope to get to lol
I hope their twins take after Ari
In the Jasper Pie comics, her character is nicknamed "Scary Ari Poppins", and there's very good reason for that!
Yeah good luck with that at the end Josh
8:50 Y’s 4x4: Multiverse of Meddling
XD
I always knew that Rabbid Luigi was wrong when he said that Super Mario 64 DS was a Bad Remake.
Most Evil Villains list remake pls. I would just love to see if there are any new villains that could top that list.
Okay a hilarious moment happened for me as I'm watching on mobile and don't have premium.
The moment Ari hijacked the countdown and said "Look at me" an ad played. It was like...perfectly timed 😆
xD Auri woke up and chose violence for Josh!
Pokemon Heart Gold/ Soul Silver, Crash Bandicoot Insane Trilogy, Ocarina of Time 3d, Luigi's Mansion 3ds, and Majora's Mask 3d are my top 5
Luigi’s Mansion on the 3DS runs like garbage
@@zaneheaston8254 Only times I notice a drop in quality was in multiplayer. Single player played fine and this is from someone who did every achievement in the game.
@@zaneheaston8254 That’s a cute opinion. Did a TH-camr give it to you? Also, the Luigi’s Mansion 3DS remake runs perfectly fucking fine as someone who’s actually PLAYED the fucking game.
@@Rediscool9 ExoParadigmGamer says otherwise
@@zaneheaston8254 So, I was right that a TH-camr just gave you that opinion rather than you actually forming an opinion of your own.
I’ve only played the original Kirby Super Star on emulators. While I still view it as my game of all time, It felt weird not properly owning it.
That is, until Ultra came out on DS. It not only modified the cutscenes to make them beautiful in 3D cinematics and updated the in-game graphics, it added new adventures like the Meta Knightmare Ultra mode where you play as Meta Knight.
That is the power of a remake: making a once dated experience fresh again while adding more food on the plate. Nice job on that list.👍
God bless you josh and Ari
Someone actually acknowledges the existence of Ys...thank you sir, may I have some more?
Not to mention that Arceus battle music.
*chef's kiss*
One list I would love to see get remade is the Top 15 Craziest Video Game Characters.
Top 10 manliest charters please!
Don't worry part 2 will come out. Just give it time. It takes awhile for stuff like this to her made.
For me my favorite remakes:
-Pokémon heart gold and soul sliver(this would be my Pokémon game if wasn’t black and white duology)
-undertale bits and piece, granted this a fan made, but still
-Kirby super star ultra(the only problem is harder to do co-op)
Surprised that the Modern Warfare 2 remake to make it on this list or at least got an honorable mention.
Q: "Which list do you believe Josh should remake?"
A: EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Josh, you and Aramau are like Burns and Allen. 🤣
26:11
Dude this man is a fuYAYin marine
Ain't nothing scaring him
Considering soulsilver was my very first pokemon game and is still my favourite, im glad it was made
I would've liked to see the Crash N Sane Trilogy or the Spyro Reignited Trilogy on here, but I can see why people would see them more as remasters rather than remakes.
cuz they are.
@@oasisbeyond Well, they do fix up and add some things here and there.
The remake for Resident Evil 2 is what made me become a fan of not only the franchise, but also to try out a gaming genre I NEVER THOUGHT I would enjoy due to my fear on horror. But once you beat the game, OH MY GOD IT FELT LIKE I WON A GOLD MEDAL FOR THE OLYMPICS AND IT WAS AMAZING!!
You lost a lot of medals not playing them in order.
@@oasisbeyond I did get REmake 1 and 3, 7, and 8 after i finished REmake 2. Can't wait for REmake 4 so my medals stay intact.
If you’re serious about remaking lists, I vote you bring back The Autarch for a Top 10 Most Hated Characters remake. Think of all the new hats or characters that have come out since then.
It's a top 10, these are difficult to make, can't think of everything all the time... Buuuut I'm afraid it lacked some Starfox Zero...
Suggestion : for the remaster list, Spyro Reignited is a must-have ! Honorable mention for Wonder Boy : the Dragon's Trap maybe ? ;7
