Additionally: The game has a debug menu with various options such as Katamari size modifiers and other such debugging features. The game's global defines file contains this absolute gem: pbs.twimg.com/media/DuO-uGAWwAEacIq.jpg (please note that this is awful and not an actual absolute gem) Said global defines file also has a variable named "PS2_FPS" which is set to 30 and as far as I can tell is never actually used.
Trivia: The singer of the song around 31:00 is the one who Adeleine(Adore-nu) from Kirby is modeled after, Ado Mizumori. Her shtick is drawing pictures with both hands while singing.
The only reason I typed "Who isn't playing smash?" Is because I knew vinny was going to be playing katamari while everyone else played smash This game is the best
I dunno, we got Vinny playing Katamari and making a Gaki reference in the first ten minutes. I'm thinkin' he's a Secret Weeb. There's still time Vin, play Yakuza 0.
I somehow managed to fall asleep during the tutorial level at a sleepover and the lalalalalala song played on repeat all night. It infiltrated everyone's dreams that night
i used to play beautiful katamari a lot when i was younger and vinny just so happens to be the one and only gaming channel i watch so seeing vinny play a katamari game is just absolutely surreal!! it's like visiting a long forgotten dream but with vinny's ball breaking commentary
I've watched a few TH-camrs play this but I haven't really heard the music properly, it's pretty good. It sucks that they usually have the volume so low, I watched several playthroughs of Undertale and missed out on that music for a while.
maybe consider playing a game for once instead of just watching someone else play it? You sound like someone who only observes the players, yet complains about things that could be fixed by being a player themselves.
I couldn't play games like Undertale because it was only on PC, and I don't have a PC. Katamari I've hadn't even heard about so I didn't know it existed until Game Grumps played it. Also, I don't watch letsplays for the games, if I did I'd play the game myself. You sound like someone who assumes everyone has all the gaming platforms and have all the time in the world to play every single game.
@@Vaguer_Weevil Kind of funny how the other day, I was thinking about just how many game platforms there have been throughout the short expanse of time that home computers have even been around in. And I do believe that we are already past the point where one could seriously play every game ever created. So it's quite alright to have missed out on some great gems, over the years. Besides, Katamari was sort of obscure, even when it was released. It was Japanese cultured with these crazy ideas and somehow got exported to the delight of all so many. If anything, I experienced it at a cocktail lounge's movie screen sized TV during a convention. Nearly everything about this game was so awe taking. So, I am glad to see that this has been ported with the flood of ports that the Switch is now getting. Besides, with the crazy cost of collecting everything that was ever made, one would almost have to go off the deep end and aim to be another Angry Video Game Nerd or something. Not to mention having millions of expandable funds in their bank accounts. ...or just emulate it all.
There pretty much only is one more stream's worth of material left. It's a game that doesn't overstay it's welcome. But, will always bring a smile to my face. So glad this one has finally moved on from being a PlayStation exclusive. (Could be in error on that.) And one BIG, GIGANTIC tip to offer. There is this (thank everything) optional stage about the bears. Avoid for the love of everything. For a game that is so fun and easy going, this one stage is brutally impossible. For you must collect a whole number of ONE BEAR!!! Make it the biggest bear in the land. While avoiding junior sized bears, statues of bears, signs that mention bears are in the area, postcards with a bear picture on it, toy bears...FRIGGIN' coins stamped with a bear, bear printed postage stamps...and whatever other kinds of things with a bear on it. I mean, you can get a massive ball going and roll across a single pixel with a micro bear imprinted on it. It is so insane that this one level could have been a contest for a boatload of money. While I'm sure that one or two people in the world have surely gotten that Godzilla-Bear by now, it's nae impossible to play.
That's the thing I love about the Katamari games. I think the longest one takes about 5 hours total to complete, and that's if you decide to do the optional challenges. They're short enough that the gameplay never gets stale.
Japanese Mayo really is fantastic, so i don't totally doubt Matsumoto. It's one of the best parts of stuff like Takoyaki. Japan has consumed my soul, help.
This game has made me who and what I’m interested in today. The music, the gameplay, it was very addictive to me some 12 years ago. I’m 26 now and this game is still as amazing to me as anything else.
Brought out my PS2 to play along, noticed another difference besided the visuals, all the levels are one or two minutes longer but the size goal is the same
is it me or did they lowered the amount of items/size needed for the King of all Cosmos to be pleased with the Katamari? I remember in the original that unless you went the most optimal route, he would end up being dissapointed at you.
you sure? Because I remember Joel streaming the game on ps2, and the King scolded him almost everytime much to Joels dismay. I remember that clearly because Joel actually got upset even after doing the best he could do.
1:01:32 - I started thinking about an anime I watched called Onegai My Melody as Vinny was talking about how nice it would be to live in Japan. And the first episode I remembered from that series was the trash house episode, where one of their neighbors lives in filth. He's waist deep in trash bags and has a car inside the house. And I don't mean a car bed or a toy car. I mean a full sized car. He shoved a car into his house.
"Make Cancer? No, fuck off we don't do that. Everybody do your crab dance." has me fucking DEAD. He's talking about the mission where you have to collect crabs and doesn't even fucking know.
Some of these songs sounds like Splatoon, Splatoon really is a mishmash of the best of japaneese gen6, Sonic Adventure, Mario Sunshine, Jet Set Radio, Katamari... and probably nany more good gen6 japaneese game I don't know about yet.
Is that an actual game show in Japan? Where if you laugh you get the piss knocked outta you if you laugh? I gotta know purely for my own desires and not for research purposes in any way.
I love that the chorus of Lonely Rolling Star got so much SourPls that Vinny had to comment on it.
they're mesmerized
crustaceans
crabs with guns
crabs with guns
This is the best youtube comment
Full version please?
Easy does it
Easy does it
and they’re turning us into cancers,
yeah they’re turning us into cancers
Heh
Katamari damacy is pretty much a dung beetle simulator if you think about it
god i love this game's soundtrack
And it's the best possible one that could ever be.
With SPAAAAACE.
most kawaii dung beetoru
Ye you roll balls like poop xdddd except the dung beetle who is a prince who is a cold blooded killer that goes on a genocide to restore the stars
Fun fact, this is a complete REMAKE running on Unity.
Wow, that really neat.
Thank you Jill. Very cool.

Jill Nesbit what’s the significance of that flag? i don’t know programming
@@Ian-gt6kg it's mainly just extremely bizarre practice and it's not immediately clear why they did something so strange.
You know Vinny really likes the music when stays quiet so everyone can listen.

The more you know!
Best song starts at 58:16.
RiderAndKallen Bless you for doing this, this song makes me so happy.
Agreed, made a chat capture
All Katamari songs are the best songs
RiderAndKallen don't you mean 1:30:33 ?
@@posteriorpepperoni ah... my personal favorite
Vinny saying "Magandang tanghali po" (good afternoon sir/ma'am) is so amusing, but at least he tried. Can't wait to watch the rest of this game :D
I love this series the prince is about the same size as me so it's very cathartic for me to watch someone so small destroy the world.
>same size
Gues you're 5cm tall then.
AKA about... 1 to 2 inches? Even less?
OP is olimar
So a little taller than Jerma?
@@BigBoy257 Jerma can fit between atoms
The only reason I typed "Who isn't playing smash?" Is because I knew vinny was going to be playing katamari while everyone else played smash
This game is the best
these improved textures are great, i legit never noticed the prince had different faces on my PS2
I don’t think he did. It seems like something new in the remake.
@@Shi_gai Yeah... I don't think he did...
The textures are great, stylistic and slick as hell. Retains the style pretty well while also looking just really nice.
I dunno, we got Vinny playing Katamari and making a Gaki reference in the first ten minutes. I'm thinkin' he's a Secret Weeb. There's still time Vin, play Yakuza 0.
How dare you!! Vinny is no fucking weeb!
Sonicplys 64 well vinny is also Joel, and Joel is the biggest weeb of them all
He's a weeb in denial.
DeadwingDork or nier automata
Detroit
Funny enough, the prince IS in smash. He's one of Pacman's up taunts now
Meanwhile, Jerma, who's played this before, can't go 30 seconds without freaking out and losing stuff.
PRESENT DROPPED
I somehow managed to fall asleep during the tutorial level at a sleepover and the lalalalalala song played on repeat all night. It infiltrated everyone's dreams that night
“Oh my God we’re doing both joysticks”
Goddamn Vinny, come on.🤦♂️
Na na na na na I feel really bad this came out with Smash... I hope Joel plays the sequels soon and maybe Vinny finishes this.
Same! If joel streams it i will definitely watch him play the game again ~
After hearing about this dropping I became more excited for this than Smash tbh.
@@lucied959 Same actually, as soon as i heard about this i was like "HOLY SHIT"
Jerma is in the small catagory
Wait, so this IS just a one-off?
Oh... I really wanted Vinny to play the entire game...
He has like 2 hours left to finish the game, I hope he does it
It's pretty short, seeing as he was already about halfway through I expect him to play it again some day.
One stream? Good luck with the bear and cow levels
@@MrBrax Depends on if Binny wants a good score or not.
@@ShyGuyXXL you sure? the moment you run into the wrong animal you have to restart, i remember having to redo that mission many many times
"Who is not playing smash?" Me i don't have money but maybe the gods from above will make it randomly appear today...
@SatanicBeige [SB] Thank you for the sweet on hold music, but seriously this song jams, thanks for linking it.
I don't have it either. Probably waiting until the new Switch redesign next year.
“Flys over cancer” *Reads “make cancer”* (Vinny): EXCUSE ME? we don’t do that here I, Priceless reaction
29:28
Every time Vin makes baby noises, the only thing that crosses my mind is Kylo Ren Spoon.
Today Vinny-senpai taught me that Filipino people (including myself and my family) are related to Tingle
i used to play beautiful katamari a lot when i was younger and vinny just so happens to be the one and only gaming channel i watch so seeing vinny play a katamari game is just absolutely surreal!! it's like visiting a long forgotten dream but with vinny's ball breaking commentary
"They're also called black stars" That explains why Bowie's last album was called Blackstar
Conan coming up with the gen 8 pokemon dex is solid.
final fantasy 7 remake coming out in 12.83 years
*it gets delayed once the time comes*
🦀 FFVII REMAKE IS NEVER COMING OUT 🦀
PS3 can play it right now for $9.99!
You uh...
You made a mistake with your numbers there, Lel.
You swapped the 12 and the 83. Swap it back.
We finally have a release date
If this is a one-off I'm really sad. I hope he'll keep playing this.
Matt P. It's not. He said a few times in the video he's going to be playing this all the way through.
Wish
granted
_"Why isn't this guy in Smash?"_
Finally, Joel gets it!
*They see Vin rollin'- They Lovin'♡*
I just now got the name of David Bowie’s last album. Sad
I've watched a few TH-camrs play this but I haven't really heard the music properly, it's pretty good. It sucks that they usually have the volume so low, I watched several playthroughs of Undertale and missed out on that music for a while.
Don't know how you missed out on undertale music, every video I'd watch for months after undertale came out had its music
So glad that none of these tunes have been generating any lawyer threats...or auto mutes.
maybe consider playing a game for once instead of just watching someone else play it? You sound like someone who only observes the players, yet complains about things that could be fixed by being a player themselves.

I got up late, but it was worth it
Japanese Mayo really is fantastic, so i don't totally doubt Matsumoto. It's one of the best parts of stuff like Takoyaki.

Japanese mayo is mid af. If I wanted it to be sweet I'd buy shitty-ass miracle whip. Fight me.

59:56 "Whoa. That's a lot of SourPls in the chat."
LIKING BEFORE WATCHING THE VIDEO!! I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!
Brought out my PS2 to play along, noticed another difference besided the visuals, all the levels are one or two minutes longer but the size goal is the same
I thought I remembered the original being harder, and that would explain it!
Picked this up same day as Smash. Missed out on the original Katamari back in the day but always wanted to give it a shot.
It's fun. Hopefully they will port the sequel "We ❤ Katamari" to the Switch too.
@@chadschmaltz9790 so guess what
Aaah the opening makes me so happy, and I only experienced this game for the first time a couple years ago.
Make cancer
TH-cam: done! Here’s our TH-cam rewind 2018!
i swear to god i can't watch this while high, I get sad because of the music
Absolute LOVE for Katamari Damacy! Play the heck outta this!
This stream went from "I remember playing a little bit of this game" to "You know what's really fucked up? Ducklings falling through sewer grates."
is it me or did they lowered the amount of items/size needed for the King of all Cosmos to be pleased with the Katamari? I remember in the original that unless you went the most optimal route, he would end up being dissapointed at you.
you sure? Because I remember Joel streaming the game on ps2, and the King scolded him almost everytime much to Joels dismay. I remember that clearly because Joel actually got upset even after doing the best he could do.
13:46 - I think it's just an HD version of the game. I don't think there's too big a difference.

This is absolutely amazing. I am glad he played one of my childhood favorite game redone for the Switch!
45:39 Crab sound is actually pitched down compared to the original
Glad you're having so much fun with the game dude. It's simple but super addicting.
“Huh… Vinny hasn’t said anything in awhile. I hope that’s a good sign…”
Vin: … I wanna live here, this is cool.
My heart: *explodes*
Guy talks too much. likes the sound of his own voice too much.
It gets on my nerves that he doesn’t quick turn as much, it’s a lifesaver but I guess go with the flow.
Damn I love the music so much
Vinny's passive procs 44:59 and he gets a crab before the level even starts.
Conan being able to just talk like that on the spot is really impressive
I’m really glad he’s playing this game, I hope he likes it!
The legend is back huh?? Cool
58:14 Here we go~ Legendary song is legendary.
What a great game, what great music, what great memories
Can we talk about how great Katamari music is
also, this game's soundtrack is so good it makes me glow with delight.
You can play with motion controls in this version and move around kind of like in ARMS - version is just motion controls and HD Rumble.
The one Vinny is referring to is "We❤️ Katamari" for the PS2
Finally, Binny playing my favorite game!
the soundtrack is so gooood♫ 58:16 lonely rolling star

This game looks like its a ton of fun to play. This is something id like to get once i get a switch.
"Make Cancer? No, fuck off we don't do that. Everybody do your crab dance." has me fucking DEAD. He's talking about the mission where you have to collect crabs and doesn't even fucking know.
1:01:48 im glad we agree, this song was the first to initiate me in loving japanese pop
The game is an amazing port but why is the volume set to 150%
I'm surprised Vinny didn't wonder aloud if there's a duck constellation.
perfect.
12:18
well the mayonaisse in japan is different from the rest of the world, it's more yellow and salty
Damn this game was my childhood to me, the sad part was that my only 2 katamari games were on a PS2
Katamari is a great game. Vinny playing Katamari is utterly amazing.
Aww, man i wanted a full playthrough from Vinny.
your wish is granted
The Prince is in Smash, as a sprite that Pac-Man randomly shows in his taunt.
Circus is probably a Latin word.. After all the Circus Maximus in Rome is likely older than most buildings in America.
31:23 I can feel the chat dying
First game was never released in PAL. I want this (on PS4).
Some of these songs sounds like Splatoon, Splatoon really is a mishmash of the best of japaneese gen6, Sonic Adventure, Mario Sunshine, Jet Set Radio, Katamari... and probably nany more good gen6 japaneese game I don't know about yet.
One of my favorite "what the fuck" games and soundtracks. We Love Katamari is even better
Is it just me or is the song "Wanda Wanda" missing in this version?
The King of all cosmos gave me daddy issues
this music is so damn good im a fool for not checking these games out
Would actually be good for a sunday stream.
A around 59:35 I misheard "humans" for "Cubans", and was confused
a real human babel
Joel: gets a duckling
The bird: AHHHH FUCK!
1:00:00 "That's a lot of Sourpls in the chat"
I love you guys
6:51 I fast forwarded randomly to this part and I was so confused
Wait are the star made of animals soul and human soul
Damn man, the music is straight up Clockwork fucking Strawberry
IM STILL SO FUCKING HAPPY KATAMARI GOT REMADE.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Anyone else find it interesting that we ski has the same music?
The Prince in smash would be hilarious 😂
Is that an actual game show in Japan? Where if you laugh you get the piss knocked outta you if you laugh? I gotta know purely for my own desires and not for research purposes in any way.
7:37 Is... Is that the Vocaloid software in the music?

Vinny needs to do his Fred Flintstone impression more often.
Wow game grumps talked about the crab migration aswell..
