I don’t want a wallet from a sponsor company
Your dad buying a ton of video games, and buying them early is cool...but buying the Japanese Consoles and games is WILD. Great dude.
I wonder if he also grew up in or near Los Angeles. We had a ton of import shops back then, also Frank and Son over in City of Industry. The prices weren't too crazy either, you just had to know where to look.
@etgripper he grew up in Houston I believe. His Dad was from New York where his cousins lived growing up.
we didn't know you could just trim the tabs in the SNES
While all the video games and consoles your dad bought you over the years was great, his biggest gift to you was all these recordings. ❤
Never a truer statement
It’s just amazing to me how so few parents recorded their kids playing video games. It took Tyler’s dad being a gamer himself to have the desire to record it.
Because most parents tolerated videos… at best.
Dad left you a tremendous gift and legacy.
Bryan seems like a solid life long friend. You only get 2 or 3 those if youre lucky. You should bring him on the channel more often. His incite to the memories is welcomed!
Definitely. More Bryan I say!
@@MyRetroLife WE need more of Bryan cuz WE are his New fans ❤️.
You guys should do a let's play of it if there's a English translation
I’ll never stop loving your videos
Thank you bro 😎
Retro Rick & Retro Wolf 88 needs to see them too.
It’s awesome that Bryan remembers so much from those nostalgic times and this game. Those memories stood out and stayed with him all these years as well. It meant a lot to him too😊That’s a true friend right there.
So thankful we are still good friends after all these years
Y'all see how Tyler friend remembers those times!?!?? Once again Tyler's Dad aka OG impact was bigger than ever.....even in Death he change so many men lives for the better
Hey man I grew up without my father cuz he died when I was a baby but I have a love for video games and hope to share it with my son the way your dad shared with you definitely inspiring what a wonderful dad you had
Its always a good day when we get another Tyler home video 😊
Your videos take me back to a time I played my Sega genesis 16-Bit with my older sister. She passed in 2009, so watching your videos brings me joy. Great to see other people in the world have attachments to video games & family wrapped in 1 like I did.
So sorry for your loss… I’m happy though that the videos can bring back good memories with her
@@MyRetroLife Thanks man. Keep doing your thing. Keep your videos coming, we all really appreciate them.
His Dad passed away in 2007.
@@mariokart8715 I’m aware of that. I was just mentioning I had lost someone too and retro gaming reminds me of my sister.
A couple years ago I realized my Super Retro Trio Galaxy could play super famicom and mega drive games after randomly buying Street Fighter 2 for $10 at a local retro store. I then went shopping on Mercari and started looking for non language dependent imports including several of these since I saw a lot of familiar characters. No idea anyone was playing them stateside back in the day. Very cool!
You're dad was ahead of his time. Who knew all these home videos would eventually be shared with the world, connecting with others who have just as much of a fondness for these days as you. Thanks dad, for filming these.
man just watching this old footage brings up so many memories of my own childhood
I've gotten into playing this game about ten years ago, when ROMs became a thing. Back in the 90s, I would have never thought it would be possible to play titles that were stuck in Japan. It must've been amazing having such a resourceful dad who would scour the ends of the earth for the ultimate in entertainment
It was a gift I’ll cherish forever having him as a Dad
Roms have been a thing for way longer than 10 years. I was playing SNES roms in 2003
What’s funny about this is around that time (give or take a few years) that particular version of Kamen Rider (Black RX) would be adapted into Saban’s Masked Rider in 1995.
Once again bringing back many memories of my childhood best friend & I doing this exact same thing throughout the late ‘80’s through the late ‘90’s.
Love My Super Famicom So Many Great JRPGs
Tyler thank you so much again and thank you so sharing this absolute gem to the gaming community. I’m an ol’ school gamer like you and your family. Golden Axe 2, Streets of Rage 2, and Double Dragon arcade are my go to’s. Thank you for giving me something new to look forward into playing.
Absolutely man! Hope you enjoy these games
Props to brians bowl cut 👍
I.cant believe any of us ever did that.....
"What where they thyyynkinng!?"
I really enjoy how your video making process is evolving and getting more proficient.
You're a natural storyteller, even if not all of it was caught on video tape.
Great stuff! Thank you!
5:18 Calling Kamen Rider Bug Man?
You are not wrong!
We always called him that! So funny
@@MyRetroLife 🦗 😅
Bro sometimes your videos make me sad because i didn't have a father growing up but im very happy you did bro so you can show us these great memories you have with your father i really wish i could of had a father like you did and i love how you honor his legacy and make sure he's never forgotten RIP Mr Esposito may you never be forgotten ❤️ 🙏 I only hope to be a great father to my son like you was to Tyler 💪
Great Battles 4, 5, and pinball were fun games as well. Great to have in a collection 😊😊😊
Will definitely talk about the others sometime!
As a 93 baby who missed out on a lot of the classics, my absolute favorite beat ‘em up video game was mighty morphin power rangers for Super Nintendo 😭 i have no idea if you’ve mentioned but I’d personally really like if you could make reference to your past videos in you videos because I wouldn’t know where to look for your past videos
Great Battle DOES what Golden Axe DON'T!!
Your dad was a huge part of your life when it comes to games. I saw an episode that had your mom on it. Ive only seen your dad in old home movies. Is your dad still alive?
Tyler’s Dad.
It's so cool that your dad recorded all this footage and that you share it with us. I have a few photos from the 70's of family members playing Intellivision and Magnavox Odyssey 2 the MO2 being the system that started my love of gaming back in 1978 at the age of 17. Great stuff always looking forward to your next video.
Did you have an Atari the same time.
I just binge watched your channel in 4 days. Great content! Really takes me back...thank you for sharing, keep up the great work! Love your channel!
Another great video tyler!!! I am so happy to see that you and Brian are still good friends.... keep up the good work
Yes we are! Our friendship has endured 34 years.
Love your videos, they always remind me of my childhood, have a good weekend everyone ✌️
I remember playing this game on my super nintendo. We had the super famcomcart of this with two burnt in slots (melted) at the back, so it would fit into my super nes. nintendo
Amazing video! I actually got those tabs off of my SNES, and managed to play Shin Megami Tensei up to a point. It was back when I still had my JVC D-Series CRT. Miss those TV's, and I think I'm going to get one of those just for retro gaming.
What an amazing video. I also had access to Japanese Famicom games because I grew up in Hawaii and the one and only video game shop in all of Oahu at the time was literally right across the street from me and they sold lots of import games and consoles. Later when I was 17 I ended up working there, 👍
Great video. That's awesome you have great friends like Brian to reminisce this golden age of gaming.
Damn now i gotta play these games.
Your dad seemed quite the pioneer RE: vlogs.
Great video. Love seeing Bryan, need more of him.
I am a new subscriber and I love your channel. It hits so close to home. Thank you, keep going.
Hey man thanks! More to come
You guys had an iMac like my family did at the same time. Your Dad must have bought it in 1998-2000.
The great battle series is now translated in english thanks to a translation patch.
Awesome video! I got to check these games out
It still amazes me how many games Japan went “Nah, that’s not for them. They wouldn’t get it”. I mean they localized Legend of the Mystical Ninja for Peet’s sake and that game was hella Japanese.
So great you could do this video with your friend!!!! Great Video as always!!!!!
Glad you liked it!!
Bryan said hello goodbye to puberty in a millisecond 😅
Its rare to see a western person who grew up with a tokusatsu game. Ultraman(specifically the ones from heisei period) and co are sort of a national treasure for kids like me in south east asia, to the point cd’s of its tv series are pirated.
Thanks for sharing with us.
Cool new style vid. You guys definitely really liked that game
Another great video! $20 for a CDX, what a great deal! Wish I could go back and pick one up at that price as well!
You and me both!
Love watching this channel. Really reminds me of a better time in life for me. How are your parents doing today in modern time?
I had so many memories with this game.
Tyler’s dad was on point!
I’m a Kamen Rider/Super Sentai fan so I’m interested! There are so many Kamen Riders now, but the Kamen Rider in this game is Kamen Rider Black RX, which would be brought to America by the same people who made Power Rangers as Saban’s Masked Rider in the late 90s, despite Black RX being from 1989! Shame Super Sentai isn’t in this, it would have been cool to have played a game with the Power Rangers in it before every kid on the block even knew what they were! Especially if the rep was Zyuranger’s Dragon Ranger (Green Ranger in Power Rangers)
Thanks for the info! I never watched Masked Rider when I was a kid. Probably would have loved it
This was so cool. Learned so much from you of how to play imports. But probably will eventually get my genesis modded. I have 1630 games roughly and 31 systems. I have two boys who are 4 and 6 and they are just getting into games this year. Mario kart on the wii and mario kart 8 on the switch. Your dad was such a great dad and I hope to be half the dad he was. Man love your channel it is great and wonder if this game is expensive would love to try these.
Always love the new myretro clips
I actually have an understanding of the Japanese language. I've been learning it since my last year in high school.
And Great Battle is actually written as "The Great Battle".
Actually Ultraman has been around since the 60's, not just in Japan.
Kamen Rider was brought to America in the mid 90's as Saban's Masked Rider. Which is what Kamen translates to, "Mask".
My first experience with Gundam was in 2000 when Gundam Wing hit Toonami.
And where did you get that Super Famicom Cartridge to Super Nintendo Adapter? I've noticed that since the Contra III Video.
Great video, my love! 🫶🏻😘
There is an english rom of this game out now. I'm going to have to check it out :)
Awesome video!!! Love your channel. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! Will do!
Your dad must have been a wealthy man to buy so many games and those were the best games ever made. There are so many retro games I would love to play but they can be on the expensive side
No he's made a video explaining that his parents did not have a lot of money. His dad typically didn't buy the games when they were new. They would wait a few years until they were on sale then he would get them
@@trinidad510he bought almost every system at launch and tons of games at release though. His dad may not have been rich but to say he didn’t have alot of money I think is false. They had a nice house in a nice suburban looking neighborhood.
@@adewilson132 yeah I'm not saying they were broke, but they were a normal middle class family. They live in Texas which is an extremely cheap place to live especially back in the 80s, so it's not a stretch to have a nice house like that where they were
Wow that looks fun!!!
Wow, you imported games way back then? Neat!
(rockin' channel by the way)
Update: the never seen before footege is from 2000 because your dad says 8 years ago
The Sonic 2 T shirt free with the pre order🔥🔥🔥
Great video as always!
Glad you enjoyed!
When you uploading new video I'm happy like a little child❤
Thank you
Awesome 😊
Wow, this game looks like a heck of a lot of fun. I wonder if there is an English translation for it now...
I'm not sure! Let me know if you find one
good memories 🙏
Hey this looks familiar!
How did your Dad go about importing games? Was there a local game store you guys went to or did he just get ahold of Catalogs from a mystery source?
Some games just stand the test of time.
I love these videos and hearing about import games. I find it interesting how gamers back then played import games. For me around PS1 and Nintendo GameCube and GameBoy I never heard of anyone doing that. Now It's common. Great Battle looks fun I love Mobile Suit Gundam. Cool video. ^_^
So random the characters in this game from completely different shows.
The games looked so cool i just bought both Great Battle 2 and 3. Is 1 worth getting?
They are actually all worth getting if you ask me. Great Battle 5 is the most valuable. It plays like Wild Guns!
@@MyRetroLife Awesome. Thanks for the heads up. I'm a big Gundam fan so having the opportunity to play and fight as Gundam characters is awesome to me. Plus a bit of Golden Axe thrown in for good measure in 3 is awesome.
I wish I had your family. I have to buy all my video games by myself but I don’t have people who support my hobby.
you should make live streams more often

I managed to talk my little brother into getting a SNES for Xmas ( the year I got the mega CD). All for street fighter 2. My dad got it but as my brother was 4 years younger to make it more appealing to him, dad got the super scope pack. I remember being gutted. Then boxing day comes around and my brother was behind on the school reading scheme so had been sent ' homework ' for the holiday season to try and catch up, (turned out he was dyslexic). My dad smart guy he was showed me SF2 and an extra pad and said. "You help him learn this book and it's all yours" . Myself and my brother joke about it to this day, I kept the poor guy up in our bedroom until 3 o'clock. He learnt to read the book! He says now he couldn't read the words he just knew every page by heart by the end of that night 😂. He said he was literally falling asleep at points and I would get him so fired up telling him about all the cool things you could do in the game that he stuck at it! Most of these 'cool things ' were made up on the spot... Apparently I told him you can't tell the difference between the graphics and a movie, oh and you could play as the transformers ( his favourite thing at the time). Ehh great memories!!! Also I remembered hearing all these cool things about a game called Zelda from my friends (I had never played an RPG up to this point). I went to the local game exchange store and thought I had scored a massive bargain on a JAPANESE ALTTP! Couldn't figure it out though it was crap traded it in 😂. Didn't experience it's brilliance until after I played ocarina as an adult and went and got an English copy 😂.
comment down below me here if you owned any japanese systems in the 90s...or knew anyone that did. I didnt get anything japanese until like 2000 somewhere in there

NOthing is a Golden axe Killer.
You are correct sir
What’s this game called?
The Great Batlle II on Super Famicom
My father enjoyed gaming with me to a point, but he never seemed to be as aware of what I wanted and what I liked as your father appeared with you in your videos. From watching these videos, I don't recall hearing about what happened with your father. Is that too personal or sensitive? Understandable if so.
You were the ultimate kid. Playing japanese games and shit. Nobody did that around here 😂 damn.
Woo-hoo! A new video... 😊
I think theres a great battle game that takes place in the wild west
Imagine if they release these for the nintendo switch
Did you ever try Sega channel
COOL VIDEO! NEVER SEEN THIS GAME BEFORE! LOOKS FUN!
