I really appreciate that you use nearest neighbor scaling for these videos. It provides a more authentic representation of the original visuals, so thank you for that.
Definitely a "reimagining". Unlike "Wonder Boy Returns Remix" (which is the Arcade Game remade with "Wonder Boy Returns" visuals), GameCube Adventure Island is just a 3D prequel to "New Adventure Island", which is why there were desert, snow, and castle themed levels that the original Arcade/NES game lacked. It could be taking cues from "Super Wonder Boy" for the SEGA Master System, in which some of the levels were replaced with different locales.
I wonder why this was never released overseas?? Love how the stages & backgrounds are filled with rich details making it almost feel like a diorama (the characters almost look like dolls too)
I think we didn't have the understanding of short, arcade style games here into the 2000s like Japan did. By now in America we were into full on narrative games that lasted like 8+ hours... Not saying either is bad, just the way I think it is. I remember renting games like Yoshi's story and being upset it ended in a half hour when you're meant to play for perfection to get the rest of the game.
Back when this came out I knew about both it and the remake/reimagining of the first Bonk game. I did import Bonk but for whatever reason forgot to order Adventure Island. I forgot about it totally until a few years back when I finally saw a video of part of it. I was blown away!! When the first Super Adventure Island game came out for Super NES this remake is what I thought and had hoped that would be. The visual style here is great and the reimagined music completely blows the original NES Advehture island 1 away! This whole remake does for that matter. I wish it had sold better, then maybe we’d have gotten remakes of the other Adventure Island games which would have been interesting to see! Something should be worked out with Konami to get this released on current consoles ! There’s not much text and you don’t really have to be able to read any of it to play the game.
Ya know, all these adventure island games really nail it down how happy someone can be when they have someone with them, and how powerful they can get when they fight for them. Like baki.
I cant stand it. Keep it like the original, not everything has to get the cutesy anime look. Its great its using the original games music though. I can remember playing it as a kid in the mid 80s.
Wasn't there a Wii Ware version of this game too, I swear I remember playing it and being hyped for a new Bonk game announced but never released after this.
@@NintendoComplete yup, thats the one! one of the best designers i've seen in a gme since you can pretty much make it however you like. shame it was only used for a minigame compilation.
The fact that you played the Wii verison too, I can't help it but say... THEY ALMOST LOOK THE SAME(the gameplay only I think)!! Skateboard Master Higgins never fail to surprise me honsetly, such a funny power-up for this Islander.
Wait... what? What? HA- WHAT! WHAT!? WHY IS The US CM Of Adventure island 2 Is In This Game If It Put In This Game Why Is No English Version of Master takahashi's adventure island "aka" Master Higgin's Adventure Island For the GameCube It Have By Localization I... Am... Disappointed... [:(]
Also, i find it hilarious how the fairies(wasnt she called "Honeygirl"??) casually remove the boss off to the side after each battle!! "Were just going to put you riiiiight over here....and done!!!" ^_^ LOL
Este juego lo conocí hace tiempo atrás pero no tenia dispositivos para jugarlo, no fue hasta 2020 que tuve oportunidad de jugarlo en emulador de celular, vaya que si es muy complicado aun asi es buen juego, para mi mejor que el juego original una verdadera lástima que jamás tocó territorio americano ni europeo He querido conseguirlo pero una copia de este juego es muy cara actualmente
Vaya que este Relanzamiento de Adventure island Para Nintendo Game cube y Play station Exclusivo para Japon y que no Salio para El Resto del Mundo Ya que este Juego junto a de Nintendo Wil Serian de los ultimos Juegos Producidos Por Hudson Solft Ya que en el año 2012 fue comprada Por Konami y Hasta el dia de Hoy No Han Vuelto Sacar mas Juegos de Adventure Island que en Mexico Se le conocio como el Capulinita debido a que Master Higgs El Protagonista Del Juego tenia un Parecido Al Comediante actor de la Era Dorada del Cine Mexicano Capulina

This sequel/"reimagining" of the original Adventure Island is really something else. Could a game possibly be more 2003 than this?

Are you leading up to DreamMixTV World Fighters?
This game looks really good . I'd buy a GameCube just to play it.
@@diegomayfield4751 just use dolphin
2003 😀😀 more like a 95-96 game
Dude this really looks smooth af. Best video I have found about this game!
Just say this game in another video 😮
Great you played it also 😊
I like those funny and cute pictures in the Credits ❤️
I wonder why this was never released overseas??

I liked the style, but the background graphics make it way too hard to see the enemies at times. It can be frustrating because of that.
In reality it was because the Japanese simply did not like this game at all.
@@NintendoComplete yea how did you play this lol. The BGs make it look unplayable.
They should put this game on switch!
This property needs a hefty overhaul to be relevant again

1:11:50 Generous hit box there.
I wish I had known about this game back in the day! So cool!
*THERE WAS A GAMECUBE ONE!?!?!?*
exactly xD
There was also a Wii one.
@@NintendoComplete I take it you recorded that one, too?
@@Dorian_ScottYup!
First time I’m seeing this. Looks pretty fun
Wow, all these years later? I love the old anime feel of this game.
I cant stand it. Keep it like the original, not everything has to get the cutesy anime look. Its great its using the original games music though. I can remember playing it as a kid in the mid 80s.
Never knew there was a Game Cube verasion.. Interesting
Holy crap, what will be next? Adventure island on a freezer?
Wasn't there a Wii Ware version of this game too, I swear I remember playing it and being hyped for a new Bonk game announced but never released after this.
Thought for a hot second this was Amazing island. still, great job!
Ah, was that the Sega one where you draw your own character? And thanks!
@ShackleYT SAME HERE!!😂
@@NintendoComplete yup, thats the one! one of the best designers i've seen in a gme since you can pretty much make it however you like. shame it was only used for a minigame compilation.
This is my favorite game now
The title screen legit sounds as if it was the main theme for an "Adventure Island Stage" from Super Smash Melee.
The fact that you played the Wii verison too, I can't help it but say...
THEY ALMOST LOOK THE SAME(the gameplay only I think)!!
Skateboard Master Higgins never fail to surprise me honsetly, such a funny power-up for this Islander.
Awesome video.
Wait... what? What? HA- WHAT! WHAT!? WHY IS The US CM Of Adventure island 2 Is In This Game If It Put In This Game Why Is No English Version of Master takahashi's adventure island "aka" Master Higgin's Adventure Island For the GameCube It Have By Localization I... Am... Disappointed... [:(]
7:46 ❤
What a weird version of the game. It's trying to be photorealistic and cartoony at the same time somehow?
Yeah, it's weird. It's like Trapper Keeper realistic or something.
Is it random that every time I see gameplay of any Adventure Island game, I think of the cartoon, Mike, Lu & Og?
don't forget Hudson Selection star soldiers and cubic lode runner!
Also, i find it hilarious how the fairies(wasnt she called "Honeygirl"??) casually remove the boss off to the side after each battle!!
"Were just going to put you riiiiight over here....and done!!!" ^_^ LOL
I think all games had its edgy time, that doesn't exclude adventure island
Wow you're really obsessed with Takahashi Meijin games 😅I always preferred the original game
This feels more like it should've been released on N64!
Holy Shit, MASTER HIGGINS IS CAVEMAN ME!!. 0∆0
Oh, are you gonna do the WiiWare one too?
As im seeing, only first worlds and stages are from classic nes, but others are from 2 and 3 versions?
Another "product if its time".If it was on a console, it has to be 3D. Indie gaming would eventually change that
This looks like a PS1 launch game. Not complaining, it still has aged better than a lot of 3D dreck from this era. Is it running at 60fps?
I couldn't say for sure, but it feels like it is.

Dios y yo lo tiré a la basura 😭 cuando mi consola se descompuso era mi juego favorito.
This hidden gem needs to be translated!

good videogame.
Сколько же игр существует про этого парня с молотками?
los juegos de GameCube se pueden jugar en. Wii
Was this games character still master higgins? I preferred his original look from the 80s games from when I was a kid.
Hope this will re-released in Switch 😊

Adventure island the music ringtones
How many tries did it take to beat this
Not a lot. I blasted through it in an afternoon, but I did record it fresh off the NES games.
шик ,блеск ,красота

Este juego de que consola es Para adqirirlo

Why did he eat the banana without opening it first? 1:19:31
He can choke to death
I don't Know Japanese Language!
Judging by the crappy graphics for the time, I would venture a guess this first came out on the Dreamcast?
No, it was a budget title.
gamecube
Had to thumbs down for a 58s ad after 34 secs of looking at an intro screen. And thus, did not watch the video. Sorry.
god this game is ugly with its pre-rendered graphics. Why did they do that crap?
Awful music
