Every Thanksgiving holiday break, I post a video on both Thursday and Friday, because there's never anything to do on the day after Thanksgiving. Enjoy
See: ukiyo-e woodblock printing. even their "traditional" art were more or less pop-art, they just do their own thing, their art evolved ridiculously, but never really stopped.
I would say a lot of it came directly out of the horror of having the bomb dropped on them twice and WW2 generally. The mutations that occurred out of the radiation poisoning of the bomb. The unstoppable enemy wading in from beyond the sea to level their cities. A hero transforms from their regular selves to something else entirely to stop them.
Japan has 125 million people living in an area half the size of Texas. Ideas and experimentation flow there significantly faster than they can anywhere else.
SNES Drunk video on a Friday? What a treat! i've had SUCH a rough week due to university and my anxiety and your updates always bring me joy (even on games that aren't my type). You're my favorite TH-camr, dude. Keep up the good work.
@@luisvilla799 lol i can't i'm getting a licensing to teach Geography degree, i can't cheat my whole way through it. I definetely did to graduate highschool, i'll say that.
The Rs mess it up a bit, but I guess I'm biased because my native language [Portuguese] makes it much easier to pronounce anything in Japanese, even if I can't understand crap. There's definitely a bunch of phonemes in English that are a PITA for me to speak right.
The stages and mainly the huge bosses in Majyuuou have some really impressive looking effects. It looks generally amazing for a 16bit game, with a great fantasy/horror atmosphere, I love this. It's exactly my flavour when it comes to action platformers.
Possibly the best list you have made! So many options presented to fire up bizarre Emulators that otherwise would have gone unused. Thank you for the insight, and continued devotion to missed gems of the western audience.
THAT'S THE GAME I WAS LOOKING FOR! Gegege no Kitarou, that's the one! Some time ago I wrote a comment on one of your videos asking about a weird Japanese game from my childhood but we couldn't figure out what it was. I've been trying to find that game for over 20 years (not exaggerating) and had pretty much given up on it, but destiny brought me to this video today. I can finally rest in peace, thank you so much for the video.
Actually Ghost Sweeper Mikami: Joreishi wa Nice Body is freakingly good game. Its fun to play, its feature a lot attention to detail and its, seems to, based on anime series.
Awww what to do on this Friday, alone at home, wife & little daughter away, rainy sky over Paris...? Oh la la! a new video from Snes Drunk! Thanks for the gift (watching while eating my baguette)!!
I own Yu Yu Hakusho: Tokubetsu Hen complete in box, I love it. I discovered the game back in the early days of emulation around 1999 or so and was blown away, you just didn't see games looking like that back then.
Weirdest game on SNES is the one where you’re an Italian plumber who gets the power to fly with a weird yellow cape that appears on your back when you touch a feather and who sometimes rides a dinosaur around that eats turtles that you can them spit out at other enemies. The color of the turtle shells have different effects. The red ones let you shoot fire. Crazy, I know!
Also read the original manga: there's a whole storyline showing the protagonist in Afterlife that was skipped in the cartoon because its producers wanted to go straight to the punch-and-kicking...
Just wanna say that I really love your videos because you somehow make all sorts of games I heard of or didn't hear of interesting. I usually just watch videos about games I already like or remember but your channel brings in a breeze of something different lol.
This channel (you) keeps on giving and giving. So many gems and to the point reviews. No bullshit, bloated up videos or sensationalized content. Please stay that way!
The fact that SNES drunk isn't in youtubes trending every week should be enough of an indication that the world is completly backwards.

Thank you! I'm 36 years old and i'm have been searching for the name of this game (Gegege no Kitarou: Fukkatsu Tenma Daiou) my entire life! Me and my brother have played it in our childhood days, but we couldn't read japanese! So it was impossible to know the name of the game at the time, and watching your video help me discover the name and remember it! thanks!
"Maybe they make you wonder if you accidentally took something without remembering, and that's really the best endorsement that I can give." Thank you, that was spiritually deep, it helps me precise "goals" as a musician, for example :p.
Some very awesome games on this list indeed. Violinist of Hameln is one of my favorite games on the Super Famicom and SNES, it's the complete package of great graphics, sound and gameplay. One SuFami game I'd recommend if you haven't tried it already is Nangoku Shounen Papuwa-kun, it's another great platformer by Enix.
Before I watch the entire clip, I click on all the indices to laugh at the funny SNESdrunk voices announcing the numbers. I love this concept of always varying it up the intro bits too :-)
This was a fun post-Thanksgiving treat. Thanks for giving it to us! I suspect that Kettler was chosen as a villain for UFO Kamen Yakisoban because a kettle full of boiling water is the... natural enemy of instant ramen? Personally, I wouldn't want to eat ramen without cooking it first, but I'm just trying to find the logic in this.
I started playing Gourmet Sentai and Parodius the other day thanks to this channel. And after a whole day of programming, logic and BRAIN STUFF it feels good to come home and play something so weird and wacky that has zero logic or reason. THANKS, SD!
There is no game in my 33 years on this planet that I have played more than Gradius 3. I actually consider it to be one of the most perfect games ever made. This video was incredibly worth the watch for me to learn about parodius! Majyuuou looks right up my alley too
This was the list i was waiting for to add to my Super Famicom collection. Its a bit harder to search through the back catalogue with language restrictions. So thanks for doing all the leg work here. Added to my Ebay wish list. 😎
I love this channel. Very good channel for rare gems and notable titles. Love the rom hack and fan translation recommendations... so much time saved selecting titles to play, thank you for sharing...
I can vouch for Deae Tonosama. It was featured in a challenge for the Big Bad 10 speedrun challenge this year. The game's not that bad though, most of its issues are slowdown related. The game has a really smooth feeling movement system with the dash jumps and the powerup mechanic is actually based on how many times you get hit or throw out your own attacks. Highly recommend checking out a speedrun guide if you want to get the most out of the movement, it's super enjoyable to fly around the stages.
Appreciate the extra video this week man! I once owned violinist no hamlin, but was too confused and gave it too a friend... And if you liked the Yu Yu Hakusho game, the PC-FX has 2 similar to it, one live action and one fist of the north star style art. Also, I'm not a big shooter guy, but I love cute-em-ups, even tho they're never the easy ones.
Parodius is also one of my favorites, especially when you play co-op. Things can get batshit crazy on the screen sometimes that's why I love Parodius so much. And the music really helps too to stand out from the others.
another SNES game i remember have that "cutscene fighter" mode is one of the Zenki games. Outside SNES, PC-FX (the successor of PC-Engine) had Battle Heat and one based in the female league of all japan pro wrestling. As that was CD Based the graphic and musical quality is bigger, but the mechanic is pretty much the same.
There's a similar Hokuto no Ken (Fist of the North Star) game on Sega Saturn and Playstation by Banpresto. (Saturn one is better as the PS version is missing some scenes.) It's cool in that it looks like an anime, but the story is not that great. It is supposed to be set after the events of the anime, but characters that were killed off like Ryuken and Kuro Yasha are alive again with no explanation and none of the other characters seem to notice that these guys were supposed to be dead. (Or it might be a continuation of the Famicom / Super Famicom Hokuto no Ken RPGs and those characters weren't killed off there? I'm not sure) All of the "new" characters are just rehashes of old characters that were previously killed off. Sometimes their the children of the old characters, and sometimes they just look similar and use the same martial art.
Oh man. This game dont need any translation to play( just one or two stage need to buy or do something to clear). This game is the best of this franchise! Too many estern egg to find. Many many... There is even a funny chapter( like hidden map but alot. Lol) to play. There is many mini game to play too( iirc there is gradivus game in it!)
@@nguyenhuyduc9151 I know man and this is precisely why it needs a translation lol. I was goofing around the game at 9 or 10 year old and somehow managed to get to the last chapter without knowing what I was doing. Last time I played it I got stuck at chapter 2 where the guards are guarding a pathway in the city, couldnt figure what to do.
@@10vitesse you need to buy a gate pass, which can be bought at shop near that gate. Back to my day, snes console is extreme expensive, so in my country there are a lot of children play one game at the same time (on snes hacked console). So we play as a small legion to finish one game. Lol. That why ganbare goemon 2 is simple game back in my day. Im not that good, just that "legion" finish game. Some kids can kill the mechaboss, some kids can clear the castle stage, and sometimes miracle happen and random kid can kill the last boss!
I'm a little surprised the Parodius games made #1 on your list considering the slew of incredibly bizarre games you mentioned that I hadn't even heard of. I'm definitely impressed you found so many weird games I didn't know. Most videos I see about weird games begin and end with Cho Aniki and Katamari :p
the thing I like about the Parodius games is that they realized you can make the little space ships into anything and they just went full tilt with that idea. Like they all have mechanically similar levels and bosses but they're totally different in style between games and that's so cool. Mario does that some times but they should do it more lol. Thanks for sharing.
Great list SNES Drunk! I love seeing all of these crazy Japanese games we never get here in the US. If you do a follow-up to this video, though, I'd like to suggest you check out "Holy Umbrella: Dondera's Wild!!". I can't remember if you've looked at it before, but it's really fun and really weird. It even has a full English translation from Aeon Genesis. Anyway, thanks again for the great videos. Can't wait for the next one! Cheers!
This made me want to download the whole Famicom library for my Retropie system. Never gave it too much thought since i have all snes games on there, but im seeing there are a bunch of different games we never even SAW here in the US let alone played lol. Thanks for showing us this.
The character UFO Kamen Yakisoban managed to accumulate something of an in-universe history. Particularly when the ad campaign was revived a few years ago, with the original UFO Kamen Yakisoban now in the role of the villain. The campaign got a bit of net publicity outside of Japan because it included the actor who played Segata Sanshiro (and the first Kamen Rider) as part of the new group of heroes.
Oh my god I have been searching for Gegege no Kitarou: Fukkatsu Tenma Daiou for at least the past two decades. I remember some side-scrolling game on the SNES I used to play at my grandmother's house in Taiwan when I was a kid that was all in Japanese and some brown-haired kid shoots power out of his hair. I had started to think I was misremembering some details or made the entire thing up in my mind. I can die in peace now thanks to you.
Zig Zag Cat makes me think of an NES game with a similar concept, Pinball Quest. Here it's breakout, there it's pinball. Anyway, it was a welcome surprise to have a new video on Friday. Thanks!
Loved the YYH Tokubetsu Hen games (yeah there is a prequel with the same system that covers the story from the beginning to the the tournament). I remember it being labeled as "Saint Seiya" on SNES rentals where people managed to play it somehow since the game had a lot of strategy and moves that worked as buff combos to trigger special effects on your characters (like transforming Kurama into Yoko, making Toguro go 120%, making Genkai younger, etc). The game is pretty addictive and pretty difficult but once u know which moves priorize on your character u can use weaklings like the Yoyo kid to beat OP freaks, even Sensui lol
YuYu Hakusho Tokubetsu-hen is easily the most memorable SNES/Super Famicom game for me since childhood. My older brother was a fan of the series and used to play the crap out of that game (along with another YYH game called YuYu Hakusho FINAL) back at 1995-1996 while I observed him playing. That game became my very first introduction to YYH and also the shounen genre of anime/manga in general.
Jesus. Why do Japanese games always have such long god damn names? "This fighting came is called Mizziku makami tomoni ka nochadi des toshinden bakugan Cho Nomi borus kai Chen"
Happens with a lot of their media (light novel to anime adaptation for example) but the general public tend to shorten those names. Example: Super Smash Brothers is called Smabra.
I love this one so much, quite a lot of these look beautiful, hilarious, and very intriguing to me. I can’t wait to check my favorite english patched rom site to see if they have any of these. I know you mention that they can be navigated and played by the English speaking population, but I lately am loving translated Roms thanks to you!!!
I really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for showcasing Ghost Sweeper Mikami and Illusion of Gaia. One day could you do a video about Kamaitachi No Yoru or Otogirisou?
Every Thanksgiving holiday break, I post a video on both Thursday and Friday, because there's never anything to do on the day after Thanksgiving. Enjoy
More weird japanese snes game please
There's no such thing as Thanksgiving here, but I am thankful for that
And we love you for it. I’m a Brit though so no thanksgiving here and I apologise for my awful teeth.
Black Friday is better with these videos
Am American and kinda hate the black friday stuff but you made a stay at home and check my YT for video treasure :D you're awesome!
Japan is so fascinating. It's like they've been having a localized artistic Renaissance ever since the early 80's that hasn't fully stopped.
Try the... 1380s...
See: ukiyo-e woodblock printing. even their "traditional" art were more or less pop-art, they just do their own thing, their art evolved ridiculously, but never really stopped.
I would say a lot of it came directly out of the horror of having the bomb dropped on them twice and WW2 generally. The mutations that occurred out of the radiation poisoning of the bomb. The unstoppable enemy wading in from beyond the sea to level their cities. A hero transforms from their regular selves to something else entirely to stop them.

Patient Zero are you familiar with a particular unintentional ASMRist/gentleman/TH-camr “David Bull” by any chance? 🧐
Alternate title: "13 Ways to Have a Great Rest of Your Day"
Agreed
Er, 18 ways... Whatever.
I agree with Turd McNugget
No matter how many times I watch his videos,
Every time I hear that I smile and wish SNESDrunk the same
Haa.
😄👍
It's never too early in the day to get SNES drunk.
Haa!
😆👍
Fun fact: all of the Goemon games are translated now. All of them, including a re-translation of Mystical Ninja.
Does the re-translation of Mystical Ninja also include the cut striptease mini-game?
@@Nutty151 It's a translation of the Japanese version, so yeah.
@@Projectwolfie21 Cool. Also, the mini-game where Ebisumaru throws a fart, lol.
For those watching and are unaware: Goemon 2,3 and 4 finally have translation patches!
Snes drunk logic:
A girl fighting ghosts: *"so weird!"*
A gorilla wearing a tie riding a rhino fighting an army of lizards *"totally normal"*
xD good one
Well when you put it that way ... Huh, you're right!
Uhm...yeah? What's the point here?
@@Justforvisit exactly my point
Best videogame review channel hands down. So concise and entertaining
Thank you for watching
SNES Drunk video on a Friday? What a treat! i've had SUCH a rough week due to university and my anxiety and your updates always bring me joy (even on games that aren't my type). You're my favorite TH-camr, dude. Keep up the good work.
Best of luck with everything Tiago
It's black friday!!
Do what I did cheat in all your classes
@@luisvilla799 lol i can't i'm getting a licensing to teach Geography degree, i can't cheat my whole way through it. I definetely did to graduate highschool, i'll say that.
@@tiagocosmos Santiago funny thing is I'm a teacher lol with a useless business degree
I speak a bit of Japanese. Your pronunciations of Japanese names are WAY better than most TH-camrs. So don't sweat it! Have a good one!

He's still saying Hakusho wrong
@@AwesomeHairo He's saying a lot of things wrong but it's still good enough
I want to say Majyuuou actually did get a fan translation, called “King of Demons”
When I was in high school I was huge into Yu Yu Hakusho I ended up downloading the ROM from my school's computer to play
my grandpa died earlier on Thanksgiving. your video helps lighten the mood. thank you!
What do you think his body looks like now?
Bye boomer
The stages and mainly the huge bosses in Majyuuou have some really impressive looking effects. It looks generally amazing for a 16bit game, with a great fantasy/horror atmosphere, I love this. It's exactly my flavour when it comes to action platformers.
This is such an underrated channel. I've been playing SNES games since 92/93, but still you find gems I haven't discovered yet. Bless you SNES drunk!
Parodius is my absolute favorite game on the SNES I love it
:)
Keep up the good work with your videos ^^
Greetings from Stuttgart Germany
Possibly the best list you have made! So many options presented to fire up bizarre Emulators that otherwise would have gone unused. Thank you for the insight, and continued devotion to missed gems of the western audience.

I will never tire of watching videos on the SNES/SFC.
Same here
Violinist of Hameln and Zig Zag Cat are two of my favorites! So glad to see them getting some recognition.
I always loved looking at those parodius games in magazines
Japanese people seem to have wild imaginations.
Mmmh pretty sure the bosses are all mithological beings like the real Raiden here 4:30
Or some really powerful drugs
That's true. They hardly smoke marijuana either.
haha yah!
Check Shuji terayama "films Pastoral: To Die in the Country" (1974)and Grass Labyrinth.
Actually Ghost Sweeper Mikami: Joreishi wa Nice Body is freakingly good game. Its fun to play, its feature a lot attention to detail and its, seems to, based on anime series.
Awww what to do on this Friday, alone at home, wife & little daughter away, rainy sky over Paris...?
Oh la la! a new video from Snes Drunk!
Thanks for the gift (watching while eating my baguette)!!
Snes Drunk and Baguette. Sounds like a good/comfy time :) 👍
@@cloud9mitchellj509 Hon hon hon! Oui monsieur! Have a good day.
I own Yu Yu Hakusho: Tokubetsu Hen complete in box, I love it. I discovered the game back in the early days of emulation around 1999 or so and was blown away, you just didn't see games looking like that back then.
Weirdest game on SNES is the one where you’re an Italian plumber who gets the power to fly with a weird yellow cape that appears on your back when you touch a feather and who sometimes rides a dinosaur around that eats turtles that you can them spit out at other enemies. The color of the turtle shells have different effects. The red ones let you shoot fire. Crazy, I know!
Yeah, nothing makes sense in Mario games, but we're so used to them that we just don't pay attention
To those of you who don’t know what yu yu hakusho is: do yourself a favor and watch the anime. It’s freaking amazing.
Also read the original manga: there's a whole storyline showing the protagonist in Afterlife that was skipped in the cartoon because its producers wanted to go straight to the punch-and-kicking...
Also i agree, Ken Griffey Jr. with the voice over as you said would have been awesome! Haha

"It's like a Miyazaki film on a bad acid trip!"
So...like a Satoshi Kon film, then?
Yesss
Nice! You forgot to mention the amazing music on the Parodius games, with many tunes based on classical music. Catchy and educative! :)
Always a treat to find what you find
Majyuuo is so amazing. I tried to get through the game as just the initial gun toting Belmont clone, and it was super fun

Great video. And Polovtsian Dances and Choruses is amazing; really amuses me how often it shows up in weird Japanese stuff.

That Yuyu Hakusho game took me a while to figure out as a kid.
Man, Snesdrunk. I think I know what games to get, thanks to your channel when I finally get a SNES flash cartridge.
Appreciate the extra video this week man!

There's a similar Hokuto no Ken (Fist of the North Star) game on Sega Saturn and Playstation by Banpresto. (Saturn one is better as the PS version is missing some scenes.) It's cool in that it looks like an anime, but the story is not that great. It is supposed to be set after the events of the anime, but characters that were killed off like Ryuken and Kuro Yasha are alive again with no explanation and none of the other characters seem to notice that these guys were supposed to be dead. (Or it might be a continuation of the Famicom / Super Famicom Hokuto no Ken RPGs and those characters weren't killed off there?

Sometimes their the children of the old characters, and sometimes they just look similar and use the same martial art.

Particularly when the ad campaign was revived a few years ago, with the original UFO Kamen Yakisoban now in the role of the villain. The campaign got a bit of net publicity outside of Japan because it included the actor who played Segata Sanshiro (and the first Kamen Rider) as part of the new group of heroes.
Oh my god I have been searching for Gegege no Kitarou: Fukkatsu Tenma Daiou for at least the past two decades. I remember some side-scrolling game on the SNES I used to play at my grandmother's house in Taiwan when I was a kid that was all in Japanese and some brown-haired kid shoots power out of his hair. I had started to think I was misremembering some details or made the entire thing up in my mind. I can die in peace now thanks to you.
Subbed about 3 weeks ago, love your videos
thanks for the video i found my favourite games back. these are the real deal!
Literally only watched to make sure Parodius was at number 1 as it should be. Was not disappointed.
Zig Zag Cat makes me think of an NES game with a similar concept, Pinball Quest. Here it's breakout, there it's pinball. Anyway, it was a welcome surprise to have a new video on Friday. Thanks!
12:24 Best boss attack move ever.
noteworthy:
Hamelin no Violin Hiki received a translation patch way back in 2001, courtesy of the j2e translation group
yeah it's definitely worth a play through.
Hamelin no Violin Hiki looks awesome. Another game to look for now while I'm in Japan.
Loved the YYH Tokubetsu Hen games (yeah there is a prequel with the same system that covers the story from the beginning to the the tournament). I remember it being labeled as "Saint Seiya" on SNES rentals where people managed to play it somehow since the game had a lot of strategy and moves that worked as buff combos to trigger special effects on your characters (like transforming Kurama into Yoko, making Toguro go 120%, making Genkai younger, etc). The game is pretty addictive and pretty difficult but once u know which moves priorize on your character u can use weaklings like the Yoyo kid to beat OP freaks, even Sensui lol
Great and weird SF games! I remember following a project long time ago on Yu Yu Hakusho: Tokubetsu Hen english translation which never finished.
I love that you make lists with 13 games.
A Dario Argento reference on a 16bit games video, now THAT's unexpected. Well, you sold me the game on this one :)
YuYu Hakusho Tokubetsu-hen is easily the most memorable SNES/Super Famicom game for me since childhood. My older brother was a fan of the series and used to play the crap out of that game (along with another YYH game called YuYu Hakusho FINAL) back at 1995-1996 while I observed him playing. That game became my very first introduction to YYH and also the shounen genre of anime/manga in general.
Jesus. Why do Japanese games always have such long god damn names?
"This fighting came is called Mizziku makami tomoni ka nochadi des toshinden bakugan Cho Nomi borus kai Chen"
Happens with a lot of their media (light novel to anime adaptation for example) but the general public tend to shorten those names. Example: Super Smash Brothers is called Smabra.
And it translates roughly to : Hope
I've only played three of the games on this list. The violin dude, Majyuuou and one of the Parodius games. And I think they all were a lot of fun!
I love weird games and didn't know about a lot of these! thanks!
I love this one so much, quite a lot of these look beautiful, hilarious, and very intriguing to me. I can’t wait to check my favorite english patched rom site to see if they have any of these. I know you mention that they can be navigated and played by the English speaking population, but I lately am loving translated Roms thanks to you!!!
I really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for showcasing Ghost Sweeper Mikami and Illusion of Gaia. One day could you do a video about Kamaitachi No Yoru or Otogirisou?
Great video but I'm surprised to see you didn't include Umihara Kawase, that game is truly bizarre.
That "Polovstian Dance" in the ending... So great. :)
