I had to always call my older cousin over for the races I would always be afraid to reset the game because my cousin lives an hour away in Colombia S.C and she was the only one older enough to press the button multiple times to win the øømeter dash race.. y'all know what I'm talkin bout!
Cat Clancey “I’m not strong enough to beat you” But also has enough stamina to outrun a motorcycle and for what appears like an indefinite period of time lol
Anyone else realize that Marina can stop the force of a stomp from a megazord like 15 times her size and also shake it / throw it whereever whe wants? How strong is she!
Aaah the memories. Best N64 game I've ever owned. It makes me sad so many people don't seem to know this game. Edit: also, in case you didn't know yet, you can throw Lunar against the ground. And shoot that plasma bullet back at him too. :3
Such cool mechanics for the bosses that you didn't use...... Like shaking the missiles on Lunar 2, grabbing the punches with Sasquatch, pointing the gun upwards, etc etc..... This game is really really great!
I had the final bosses' number back in the day. Had the timing down perfect, was dash jumping into the attacks to get the shake or rocket punch quicker. Even positioning myself correctly to force the AI to put the boss into the attack I wanted. Only bad part was the RNG nature of the rocket punch, when the boss moves around. Generally, he does initially move to his right, so aiming for the left shoulder like OP did was the safest bet, otherwise you lose time.
Haha my man’s really had it down. ☝🏽 It’s been decades that I’ve played this; watching this made me realize I played it a lot. Everything kept coming back to me. True gem on the 64.
It took me forever to find this game. I use to play this all the time when I was in my preschool years, but I couldn’t remember the name. I wasn’t sure if this was the game at first until I saw the migen fight.
good lord i miss this game so much. THIS is peak nostalgia. this was one of the most underrated n64 games ever released during the 3D era. this game was so damn good
Anyone else feel like the boss battles went downhill after Lunar Alpha? Dont get me wrong, I still like to battle Merco and the final boss, but to me Lunar Alpha was the most epic boss battle in the game. Also took me the longest to finally get the gold gem in his fight.
Tarus was more of throwing him and his Sasquatch Beta mech at him Merco was a Brawler and his Phoenix Fight felt like a vertical version of Cerberus Alpha Lunar was predictable however his Cerberus Alpha was a high speed battle and he always kept attacking you, the fight was epic and you can do things you really couldn't know about til now like blocking Lasers with your fist and chucking missiles from a distance while you're on a Cat Clancer riding a missile.
I love the charm this game and others like Tomba had. It was like you were participating in a Saturday morning anime and I love that feel that these games had that you simply don’t see as much anymore in gaming and it’s a real shame.
2:23 --- Even when I first played this game, I always found it hilarious how that bee suddenly explodes. Seeing it in this vid still makes me laugh. Also, my game is the Japanese import and I never had any idea what anyone was saying :D EDIT: omg 23:18... lol at that explosion
I once told death battle she should fight Wario. Someone was like "who?" And I thought: "slap yourself" then again she would totally own Wario wouldn't even be fair.
The two bosses I consistently struggle with beating damageless in this game are Cerberus A and Phoenix G. Cerberus Alpha is absolutely the hardest one though. The main problem with Phoenix Gamma is that avoiding the drill in the first phase while you're trying to yank the spear off of Merco can be awkward and the second phase can screw you over randomly. But really, all you have to do is get one good run and then just position yourself right when the rockets start flying. Cerberus Alpha's second phase is ridiculously hard to do without taking a hit, and it just comes down to dumb luck. To this day I have no idea how to do that fight consistently and it takes dozens of attempts before I break through that second phase.
No damage? I'm not sure Celes feels the same as you :) lol Many good bosses in this game but the Cerberus Alpha fight is so creative with all its different stages!
11:23 made me ragequit this damn game. Seriously, were they on crack when they decided that you had to take ZERO DAMAGE against these psycho bosses for the Gold Gem? As if the hideous controller mapping wasn't already a dealbreaker!
Underrated game is the most underrated game ever. I love this game. The way the game is done. The way strange creatures are drawn. Cool Boss fight. Mini boss music BOOOM explosion sound. And Android Z Clone Marina match. My Strength, My Courage... the mini-boss soundtrack also begins. 😍😎👏👏 How many games and movies focus on this?🤨 Anyway, the mysterious final boss and the first Fire boss I saw shocked me. But great Boss great graphics and good powerful boss. No need to write any more. Those who like retro games, Movies and Memories know well. 😥.
30:02 I love when you fight Merco and whenever one of your attacks make contact with him and inflicts damage he goes "ah!"; and says it like you just ripped off a Band-aid kinda hard, or he took a bite of slightly hot soup, or he kinda bumped his knee on his computer desk lmao. For taking a missle to to the dome, or having a sword thrusted at him by a rocket powered cyborg (or cybot); he sure makes it sound like he feels just enough pain to consider it a minor annoyance. One of those pains that really doesnt hurt you just go "ah" to communicate your inconvenience lmao.
When the bosses want Marina to join their fanclub why do I feel like that was changed in translation from them wanting her to start dating them instead?
I always liked pulling Sasquatch Beta's tank turret upwards when it prepares to shoot and the shot lands right on top of Taurus causing massive damage. His second stage was so disappointing though. Wayyyyyyyy too easy. If things go right, you can beat the stage in a minute or just a few seconds over. Meanwhile, Cerberus Alpha and Phoenix Gamma were absolutely EPIC boss battles!
You know there’s a better way to do both gorilla fights… in the first fight, you’re supposed to grab his fist as he tries to punch you, and then throw him past you. As for Sasquatch Beta, while it’s in tank form, you can grab the cannon while it’s charging and jet upward. Doing that will force it to aim straight up, and since its shot is affected by gravity…
The final boss in this game. The concept of combining the three powerhouses, transforming into thier final forms, then fusing them to make a fucking MEGAZORD ... This game seriously needs a modern day remake man. It could be released as is, and even today be a smash hit. Imagine if they rebooted the graphics and evolved it to present day processing power... Would be absolutely a game changer (literally lol). As long as the original team was in charge with no corperate woke interference and they stayed committed to the true nature and style of the game; It would be a masterpiece as is the OG '64 version. Btw love the long super epic transformation in final MegaZord fight. With super badass moves and buildup... Just to get snatched up by the leg by Marina, and slammed back n forth off the pavement like a ragdoll 😂😂😂. Marina is the GOAT of this Galaxy
marina sure loved to beat up on alien wildlife. that fight with the mole (who presumably was minding his own business) was straight animal abuse, the way she threw him around and kept stomping on his belly for fun
Underrated game gelmiş geçmiş en küçümseyenmiş oyun. Bu oyunu seviyorum. Oyunun yapılma şekli. Garip yaratıkların çizilme şekli. Havalı Boss dövüşü. Mini patron müziği BOOOM patlama sesi. Ve Android Z Clone Marina maçı. Gücüm, Cesaretim... mini boss müziği de başlıyor. 😍😎👏👏 Kaç oyun ve film buna odaklanıyor?🤨 Neyse gizemli son boss ve ilk gördüğüm Ateş boss beni şok etti. Ama harika Boss harika grafikler ve iyi güçlü patron. Daha fazla yazmaya gerek yok. Retro oyunları, Filmleri ve Anıları sevenler iyi bilir. 😥.
@@TheRedRaven_What makes you say that? Alien Soldier, Gunstar Super Heroes, and even the Sin & Punishment games felt more like direct successors to Gunstar Heroes imo.
This game had straight up SNES graphics . I remember when I got this game as a kid , after I saw it I wanted to return it because of how bad it looked and they wouldn't let me. Electronic Boutique at the time had this rule that you couldn't return games once they were open. The only thing good about this game was the boss fights and the fact that you could literally grab everything
You are truly blessed to have played this game and know about it in 2022
I had to always call my older cousin over for the races I would always be afraid to reset the game because my cousin lives an hour away in Colombia S.C and she was the only one older enough to press the button multiple times to win the øømeter dash race.. y'all know what I'm talkin bout!
I’m saying
Man that dragon creature in the lava fight was actually so cool looking back at it
Cat Clancey “I’m not strong enough to beat you”
But also has enough stamina to outrun a motorcycle and for what appears like an indefinite period of time lol
If you can dodge a Wrench you can dodge a ball said Marina
Ugh it’s like Marina knew us lol
Thanks to riding missiles, haha
My god I want a remastered version of this.
Yes!!
That would be nice
Same!!!!!!!
Omg yesss😍
A man can dream though, a man can dream...
Could you imagine Wayforward remaking this game?
Anyone else realize that Marina can stop the force of a stomp from a megazord like 15 times her size and also shake it / throw it whereever whe wants? How strong is she!
I disliked comment this because of your punctuation. BOOOO GET OFF THE STAGE
throwing hands with giant robots before raiden
@@bigfunny6312 I disliked your comment because you misspelled “boo”.
As strong as she needs to be to get the job done.
Love her "Shake-shake", sounds cute)
She's an Android too with a soul.
I completely forgot the final boss is literally so they can get you to join their fanclub.
So that's the name of the mystery game I played when I was little.
And a VERY nostalgic one, to tell ya the truth. I think every otaku should play this >D
Aaah the memories. Best N64 game I've ever owned. It makes me sad so many people don't seem to know this game.
Edit: also, in case you didn't know yet, you can throw Lunar against the ground. And shoot that plasma bullet back at him too. :3
This game was so good, ahead of it's time, and even broke the 4th wall. Man Marina is one of the strongest video game characters of all time.
U can throw Taurus into the wall to get the gold gem on the first encounter.
Lunar was my favorite boss! "HERE'S LUNAR!" "CERBERUS ALPHA!" "How..could..I..lose to you?"
THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!
9:56 Greatest boss battle of all time. You playing dodge ball against a cat.
These boss fights had no business going this hard when most of us playing were under 10, especially Cerberus Alpha
I wish they were harder. I played popular SNES games that are way more difficult before I found this gem.
Through Fire Justice Is Served!
To punish evil forces, I have been charged!
Cerberus Alpha!
HEEERE’S LUNAR!
A hero in shining armor is called.
@@nut9800 IT'S TAURUS TIME!!!
EDIT: ALSO: SASQUATCH ß (BETA)!!!
Pure nostalgic! Awesome game
It is Shake Shake
Love this game
Is it me or do you get a nostalgic feeling when you hear the voices from past games? I mean, I get that feeling every time I hear Lunar.
Oh this game and the hours I spent just throwing the clancers good and bad into walls and bad objects.
Yes, even the good ones. They're just so...throwable...shake shake!
...ESPECIALLY the good ones...
@@Hextator Yes, because the bad usually die in one or two hits, BUT the good can be throwed and throwed and throwed and...
Monster, lol
I loved tossing the elderly one around
@@honkytonkheroes0184 which one? King Aster or Geold?
It's nice how Lunar, Taurus, and Merco have a megazord like combination
Such cool mechanics for the bosses that you didn't use...... Like shaking the missiles on Lunar 2, grabbing the punches with Sasquatch, pointing the gun upwards, etc etc..... This game is really really great!
Thanks for mentioning there is more to do with Marina, which just makes it one of the best N64 games in my opinion.
You can also rip the shield and spear off Merco as well
I remember I played the bosses over and over again since it was so fun to figure out what you could do to them. Great game!
Same. Same.
I like the way Migen Jr. is animated, you hardly ever see spritework like that, Treasure has a distinct style.
This game had no business being as fun and original as it was.
11:40
YOU CAN CATCH THAT BEAM?!
The more you know...
I always felt really bad when I was little and Cat Clancer would cry :(

Marina is incredibly underrated
Aw, I wanted to see Sasquatch Beta get hit by his own tank shell, that's the funnier way to attack him.
Never knew that can happen,
You know, you grab his tank barrel and point it directly up before he shoots.
I thought that was the customary way to fight him lol that's how I did it
I used to do that as a kid BUT I TOTALLY FORGOT

Imagine having the cat clancers as your sidekick, man he or she would be so cute!!
I really hope this game makes it on the N64 Classic, because it is impossible to emulate it properly, both graphics and controller layout.
Probably won;t because it is just an emulator anyway. Sad.
If your still trying to play this you need a pretty good phone and I could reccomend controller layout
@@countchocula1250 Or you play it perfectly without hassle on PC? No idea why it should be impossible to emulate xD
@@countchocula1250 why the hell would you emulate this one on phone
It honestly works fine on a S7
That combination sequence is so good!
Also, I think Cristina Vee would make a good Marina if they ever need a replacement.
The music from this game pops into my head sometimes
same here
It looks like she's dabbing after beating a boss

In Japan everything explodes, you can have two Pokemon using water gun and then the attack EXPLODES, WATER EXPLODES WHY.
@@Dexuz attack canceling in the anime is wierd.
Would love to have her on smash bros
This game was so unique, strange, beautiful, and surprisingly emotional.
They just don't make them like this anymore.
Treasure was an incredible developer.
I once told death battle she should fight Wario. Someone was like "who?" And I thought: "slap yourself" then again she would totally own Wario wouldn't even be fair.

Shaking for treasure from within;
Throwing far is how to win.
No damage? I'm not sure Celes feels the same as you :) lol
Many good bosses in this game but the Cerberus Alpha fight is so creative with all its different stages!
I love this game to 64BITS. One of the best! Fantastic soundtrack too!
Watches Marina as she just sits there and allows professor to get ate by Son.
I played the hell out of this game as a kid, and then again a few years back. It’s definitely good, but a few areas feel unfinished.

Ill never understand why they didnt give the last boss a better death animation. That aside this game was rad.
The megazord?
Because they're good guys.
The final fight in the game is against heroes.
I can't really think of many other games that have done that.
how.. the HECK do you beat the lava lizard monster boss?
HOW?!?!
Oh god Migen Jr yeah he was a a massive pain in the ass, I just kept memorizing his attacks and eventually got him.
Make him punch himself in the face by grabbing his fist after he swipes at you, take out the small one first since he regenerates the big one.
