Hey why are you still taking a sponsorship from nordvpn dude
"Beyblade" is a spinning top game where players launch customizable spinning tops into a small dish and, through the power of physics, battle it out. The peripheral you're probably referring to is the "Beypoint Reader"; a little adapter that was released with the first Metal Fight Beyblade DS game. The Beypoint Reader allowed you to connect a Beypointer to the DS, and transfer points to it. The "Beypointer" was a little device that attached to a launcher that would reward points to whoever won a battle and act as sort of a ranking system. The Beypointer could also be used to connect to "Bey Ta" arcade machines to play for a chance to win an exclusive Beyblade Top(Quetzalcoatl 90WF for Bey Ta 1, and Mercury Anubis 85XF for Bey Ta 2).

I'm not sure if you're aware or not, but NordVPN did get hacked recently.

Anyone: "Why does nobody want my fun and cool idea"
Nintendo: "hey baby"
Nintendo pretty much _is_ that weird company making weird gaming peripherals, but they build these weird peripherals into the consoles themselves because they can do that.
Anyone : Here's a pretty cool fangame
Also Nintendo : Fuck-a you
is this a jojo's reference ?

You know you’re playing guitar hero on tour when you have hand cramps while playing all star on expert
You know you're playing Decades when it's not designed for fast, aggressive songs and then that game drops the Alien Ant Farm cover of Smooth Criminal on you as a bonus.
@@lightninstriker10 :eyes:
Or Do What You Want. Or really any song on any difficulty.
MysteryMii I mean easy is gonna obviously gonna have less notes which means less strumming, but i don’t know if that reduces cramps
Eyh now, you a rock star!
"You got multiple Donkey Kongas-you ain't playin' those Donkey Kongas!"
Then clearly you are not me.
I have two! I got the second set for multiplayer. And a goddamn backpack for putting one set in. I got multiple bongos in MY kongo.
Back when I had a Gamecube I played the Donkey Kongas a lot. I'm still somewhat mad that my Ex-GF was the only person I know that could beat DK Jungle Beat beacuse she could play that for hours because she couldn't feel pain in her hands because she extremely burned her hands as a kid.
You gotta play Smash with those Donkey Kongas.

@@owenrobertson5043 thank you
My parents got me and my brother dsi's for christmas around when they came out, and since we were both into guitar hero at the time, they also got us guitar hero on tour. This was all very nice of them, but they were so confused when my brother and I had to explain to them that we couldn't play the guitar hero game they got us because the dsi got rid of the gba slot.
Linda Televangelista LMAO
When the DSi came out, I was pretty unhappy about the GBA slot being gone.
When iPhone came out for the first few years people were disappointed that they can't play Java (J2ME, technically) games on it. Sure those smart phone titles are good but the amount of titles just wasn't that good yet. But time would make things go and now J2ME games are probably the thing that people care least about.
@@FlameRat_YehLon I have a JAVA emulator
Darkest Fear
Wolfstein/Doom 1&2/Orcs & Elves rpgs

CSI Games
There is some pretty good JAVA games out there,enjoyable despite the limitations
Same, the DS Lite is still the penultimate handheld in my eyes.
I still prefer the original DS to the DS Lite. Between how often buttons (primarily L and R) stop working, the small form factor which kind of sucks if you have particularly large hands, and the speakers being far less beefy on the Lite, the old fat DS is my go-to. Not to say the DS Lite doesn't have any advantages, but if I'm going to sit down and play at home, where I don't have to worry about it fitting in my pocket, then I'll go for the big boy every time.
That deterred me from buying it.
When I saw the title, I expected the Guitar Hero thing along with some DS and GBA carts linking together, but it was even weirder than that. The strangest use of this link that I know of is how Pokemon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum will add new wild Pokemon in certain areas based on the GBA Pokemon game in Slot 2, and there's nothing in the game even hinting at this.
Monster rancher for the PS1 had a similar gimmick
Switching disk to get new cards
So did the Yugioh Tag Force games
With a UMD recognition feature,some games give you random cards,some specific ones,and switching the umd with a previous Tag Force game always unlocks some unique cards and even some characters
Ace Attorney of all game series did this too! In Japan, the games came out on GBA first, then DS, and when you had both in the system at the same time, the DS would unlock all the cases for you (the idea being that you had played the originals already), which the exception of Rise from the Ashes, which was a new case for the DS version and thusly would be new to someone who got the originals.
"From C to shining C"
Congratulations, you've won the music community.
Derek: "Tell me what Beyblade is in the comments"
Comments: "lol, you said slots"
Beyblade is what if pokemon were all Hitmontop
"The Beyblade" was a mildly dangerous spinning tops franchise. Like Pokémon, but with a "You'll shoot your eye out" gimmick.
Fun fact: the Beyblade franchise celebrated its 20th anniversary this year. It's almost old enough to legally drink in America.
Can confirm, i already saw beyblades just break down while spinning and parts go everywhere, but i still have some to this day.
@@googleruinedyoutube which is why I laughed when he said "I'm an old man, I don't know about bayblade." He was probably the demographic when they got big.
The milk bar in my old neighbourhood had these knockoff beyblades with a weighty circular metal piece that outspan every legit beyblade and if you ripped it too fast, it could cut you if you tried to pick it up
Nice A Christmas Story reference
The way Grace shout laughs "DEREK!" in this episode gives me life, ngl

I have been watching this channel for many years, even back in the HVGN days and have always had like notifications for uploads. I have never clicked a video based on the title so fast
The was a Rumble pack too, wasn't there? I think it worked with Metroid.
Yep! Most certainly. It worked with a few other games, too.
Spoilers for a future episode, I’m sure
Also works with StarFox Command and Elite Beat Agents, among others I'm sure.
There was the rumble cartridge. The extra memory card that only the Opera browser and a few homebrew used. Some games including Pokemon used the slot 2 to access data on actual GBA cartridges. There are still some things to show. But I'm glad that the Video tried to show some obscure uses of slot 2
Didn't it work with that Diddy Kong Racing remake?
I still have my DS Lite Opera Web Browser cartridge somewhere, it came with a RAM Expansion that goes into the GBA Slot.
DS slots want to meet in YOUR area
😂😂
Slot-shaming made me laugh so hard I teared up. Ya cheeky man.
Same hahaha
imagine if the facening scan came with extra ram and an sd card slot to basically turn the ds into a dsi
You've made some interesting notes and I'm going to jot them down

"WHO DID THIS TO MY FRICKIN CAR"
I will NEVER understand how this channel does not have like 5 million subs!
When this was first teased I thought it was going to be about DS games that use the GBA slot, had no idea there were this many weird things you could shove in that hole.
One thing I can think of, is the pal park in pokemon, where you could transfer pokemon from gen 3 to gen 4, by putting the gen 3 game into the gba slot, and the gen 4 game into the ds slot. (I still can't figure out how they pulled that off, lol. It's so awesome!)
and on diamond pearl and platinum some wild pokémon appeared exclusively if you had a specific gen 3 game on the gba slot
"Okay Guys, It's Time To Stop Farting Around."
My Dad uses that phrase all the time lol! 😂😂😂
Beyblades are combat dreydals/tops. Each player launches their top and the last one left spinning wins. In the show there were Yugioh esque spirits inside each thing and the characters yelled at the things and they did stuff.
They're actually based on an old Japanese variety of metal fighting top called a "beigoma"
My favorite part about Beyblade is how it's canon that Moses parted the Red Sea with a Beyblade.
@@SonofSethoitae Not sure if it's originated from China or Japan (or maybe Korea) but the Chinese one usually is made with wood and spin by constantly whipping.
I was expecting one of the top comments being about she teaching him how to do an AHEGAO face in the 5:27 part.
I remember two wonderful uses i had for this thing besides getting to play my GBA games on the DS (though I always liked my SP more for that with its longer battery life, cheaper (At the time) device and lighter weight).
Being able to transfer pokémon from generation 3 to 4.
And unlocking the Mithril Sword for Final Fantasy Tactics A2 when the first Advanced game was in the GBA slot.
Oh crap!
You're the Happy Video Game Nerd!
How did I just realize this?!?
When I upgraded to the DSi, I had no choice when it came to getting rid of my DS lite. My DS had its hinge falling off for months prior to me getting my DSi. I haven't bought another DS light since then, though I think about it every once in a while.
I realize this series doesn't really touch on non-authorized hardware, but I was really impressed at some of the devices the pirate community came up with. Like a Slot 2 cart that was simultaneously a GBA flashcart, a RAM expansion (for the browser), and a rumble pack. It was the perfect all-in-one device.
The real cool part of Guitar Hero was that all versions were compatible for multiplayer. My wife and I had the first two games and we could play together with each one.
The piano should have been bundled with Resident Evil.
That would have been cool even though it really would have only been fun/useful for that one puzzle
Krukikro That’s a neat idea.
Why did Intelligent Systems make an ahegao training game? : /
(no slot shaming)
I love the fact you used the music from Contact as a sound bed for the Face Training bit, that game had such an amazing soundtrack.
The GBA slot was a really neat thing, yes. I really enjoyed having e.g. Pokémon Ruby or the GBA port of A Link To The Past slotted in there and interrupting my session of those games with a few rounds of Tetris DS.
I didn't know about most of these peripherals though, only the Guitar Hero one.
When you fill both slots of your DS OwO
no
"Yes, that Nord VPN". You mean the one that got hacked?
Derrick out here giving us some body positivity with our strange gaming periferals. Love it
"It's what's in here that counts" Cholesterol.
HEY I'M DEREK IT'S ME DEREK...
*AND STOP SLOT-SHAMING.*
3:35 just a quick tip Derek (coming from a man with ogre hands) just put your thumb in the strap, it makes a huge difference, although i still play guitar hero/band hero games on everything
Grace shrieking "Derek!" at the beginning of the video is the best part
Man, I'm just happy putting Aria of Sorrow in the GBA slot gave you goodies when you started a game in Dawn of Sorrow.
Definitely appreciate the tour of the wacky and weird though, guys!
And as with any console back in the day, there was a ram pack. Needed to run the opera browser on the Ds.
Grace: Slot-shaming IS my kink!
I mean, humiliation is a kink, if we're being serious...
@@PuffyRainbowCloud Stahp kink-shaming me, bro.
@@Mario583a*sis 😉
No shame! I'm into humiliation so why would I judge 🤷
*inhale* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-
My first DS was the Guitar Hero On Tour you showed in the video. Still works great to this day barring the bottom screen's black spots
I love Grace, her reactions to your slot puns where fantastic.
I would love to see an episode about music production tools for consoles like the odd but fantastic Korg DS
I love Korg on Switch, I've actually made really good music on it.
That's a good episode idea
I was just thinking to myself "I wonder if that little keyboard works with the Korg games, I think they had DS and M01, maybe even more in Japan
I had the rumble pack and it was so amazing I was upset they didn't put that in the hardware for the 3ds when I did finally upgrade to it
Not having rumble is the reason i didnt get the switch lite either
This is something i needed several years ago, but finally i have a comprehensive video.
I saw a copy of "Guitar Hero On Tour" at my local Rite Aid in the shovel ware game/weird dvd section. It's been there for years most likely. Probably still there to this day.

I’m surprised this guy doesn’t have more subscribers! This was really good and I hope things continue to go well!
I am so stoked for you guys to cover Boktai/Lunar Knights and Monster Rancher.
I like this video. But seriously reconsider removing NordVPN as your sponsor. Talk about compromising all your internet traffic. And then just doubling down on more ads instead of addressing the problem and admitting it was a mistake. They seemingly show no awareness or learning from their mistakes. Avoid like cancer.

Beyblade (bay-blayd)
Noun (Singular)
A kind of metal spinning top powered by a small, mechanically operated motor that has a penchant for injuring the faces of small children.
A bunch of GBA slot DS accessories are stuff that came to the DS family later in life. A camera for the dsi, a pedometer for the 3DS, a piano keyboard for the Switch (with labo)... I guess the Switch ain’t part of the DS family. Except the guitar hero tab and the taito paddle.
Beyblade ➡️ customizable spinning tops from an anime with many seasons. The most recent ones have tips with shock absorption, bearings, metallic tips... That you can mix and match with middle and upper parts with more gimmicks to attack and defend yourself in battle. Make your opponent stop spinning, knock it out the stadium or make it dismantle in battle (they have a spring lock inside that holds everything together) to win.

Giorno: takes out nintendo ds piano
I was watching this whole video to see if you were going to cover my favorite Slot 2 peripheral... which you did (kinda), with the optical mouse Slide Adventure Magkid peripheral. You definitely owe it to yourself to pick this up because it offers a unique - and pretty good - gameplay experience.
One of the cool things I had for my DS was the Maxx Media Player, an MP3 player for my DS that used a 4 gig drive that plugged into the GBA port and could be connected to a computer via mini-usb. It was my MP3 player throughout highschool. l remember always getting weird looks from kids when they would pull out their ipod to connect the AUX cord to, and then I pull out my DS. The cool thing was it could also do home brew, and the instruction manual told you about a website to find homebrew on.
Yeah, Grace, stop slot-shaming the DS! Shame on you.
I can’t watch this right now but it is EXTREMELY my shit so I’m definitely gonna watch it later. Ilu. here’s a comment and a like for that good good discoverability!
0:10 "HEY I'M DEREK IT'S ME DEREK!!"
busted my gut Man. I could watch that on loop.
Also just sell the same piano man!
That kanji dictionary saved my life in japanese class in college!
I hear "face training" I expect to have a six-pack etched into my forehead lol.
:'( I genuinely miss the cool lil intro... bring him back,, derek...
Ooh, looking forward to hearing about those DS/GBA cart dongles! :D A lot of my favorite games on the DS had all kinds of fun stuff with those links!
Face Training wasn't a downloadable game on the DSi, it was a cartridge game that only worked on the DSi, DSi XL and all 3DS models. The box included a card stand for your system, similar to the one WII Fit U came with for the GamePad.
Someone should hack that piano thing to work with a tracker software.

Couldn’t play Let It Be
Whenever I see my old gba games and the nostalgia kicks in
Me on my ds system: Come here you little Slot!!!
"And If You Want More Slot Action..."
Oh my god lol! 😂😂😂
Slot shaming
*W H E E Z E*
WHEEZE*
Saw notification, IMMEDIATELY clicked. Thanks D.
My parents specifically didn't trade in my old DS _because_ of the slot 2 phase-out. At the time, my GBA SP was still inside the couch apparently (it would take years to find that one out) which made the DS my only way to play GBA games.
Excellent video, I only missed the 'Motion Pack' cartridge that came with 'Tony Hawk Motion DS'.
"What is Beyblade?" It's a TOP, Derek. Just a plastic silly top. Nothing more than a stupid top. And not even good ones. The ones i used to play, made of wood and nails, were much better.
Plastic?
I remember having five Bleyblades,all metallic ones
Seto Kaiba you could even get metal toys that don't wear down nearly as much.
@@2KDrop Not the point
What i'm wondering is if i somehow got "bootleg" bleyblades that for some reason were of higher quality than the official ones
Also hard for them not to wear down,they are tops,and most kids used to make two clash together to mimic the anime fights
@@KaibaSeto. No, there were officially licensed metallic ones. They started around 08-09
So bare with me.
Megaman Battle Network, I know people have VERY mixed feelings about the series, but they did something really cool with the DS remake of the 5th game.
Not only was that basically a super cart that let you play both versions and get some extra goodies if you dug around for them, but it also had a special feature if you still had the past games laying around. Basically, depending on what BN game is stuck into the GBA slot, certain bonuses happen. Most commonly you change the background music to music from that game. But, and this is a big one, if you have an older version of 5 in the GBA slot, you can actually import your old chip decks to fill out your library or give yourself access to super powerful chip decks early on! So maybe not as weird as some of the stuff in the video, but still way more back for your buck than anyone could've expected from a DS remake for a niche audience.
"Beam me up Slotty". I'm down with a video of straight punning.
"Beam Me Up Slotty."
Derek stop, you're killing me! 😂😂😂💀
I think I remember those cooking games in stores, I don't know if i had a magnet , but I think it used speech instead.
one of my favorite channels keep it up i love your videos. happy holidays
"From C to shining C"
We appreciate your jokes, no matter how much they make us groan.
Derek is one of the only people I'm aware of who can make such terrible puns seem so incredibly charming.
"We ain't finished with you girl. We ain't finished with that slot"
"we comin back"
Even though it's the most mundane of the bunch, I'm really surprised no even mention of the Rumble Pak. Came with Metroid Prime Pinball but a handful of others used it.
I loved the DS Guitar Hero's. Band Hero was amazing too with the drum sleeve!
7:29 and Pat goes crazy, getting flashbacks of Matt talking about Face/Off all the time.
