Water being weak to water actually makes some sense as the water would reabsorb him back into the puddle.
i can imagine the lego yoda death sound as Dewey gets zucced into the water.
''Konami is a legendary company''
Oh how time has changed
Ow.
Now, all they’re interested in is making mobile pay to play games bc of the money. :( That’s just sad
How'dYouGetKilledByAMotherfuckingParalyzedTaillow to be fair they’re still kinda legendary though it’s been a while this they made anything
Now they are "legendary" for all the bridges they've burned.
“Nice. Mice! OOPA-“ is still one of my favorite jokes on this channel. Really glad to see one of my first videos I’ve seen here still holds up all those years later. Keep up the great work man!
I think you mean "Nice. Mice. UPA---"
Konami also made an active time turn based wrestling rpg with third person platforming, aliens and survival horror elements set on Christmas in Washington and released on N64.
It's called Hybrid Heaven and it's honestly just as great as it is weird and damn it's weird as hell
+Nikodem R
I love Hybrid Heaven! I wish I was able to visit an alternate future where that game instead of being mostly unknown and unloved becomes the base of many other games to be inspired from.
A Gamer Aaron there were games that got inspiration from it, in a way. The combo system for one is kinda similar to the one used in Shadow Hearts 3, also a similar the wait and dodge to build up power mechanic has been used in a couple RPG's before it, like Parasite Eve and Panzer Dragoon Saga.
Tho I really do wish I someone would finally decide to make another wrestling alien active time turn based survival horror RPG like Hybrid Heaven. Brazilian Ninjas, Mitohondria Princess and bio-engineerd lazor Dragons are all nice but wrestling on christmas eve is also nice.

Another video game that should come back
Koitsu -the stickman from the last game- is actually a yugioh card :-)
Fakeromon What an odd choice for cross promotion.
There's also a Yu-gi-oh card of Gradius... and it's got a bunch of support cards too. Go figure.
I thought that's what it was
+Fakeromon so Is Gradius, Leon Belmont, Solid Snake, The Paper Airplane guys from Parodius, Goemon, Getsu Fuuma den. Good times to collect these when I was playing it.
whats the name of the fusion monster
Right after my update promising faster uploads, I got hit with a lot of stuff in my personal life. But it's mostly been resolved now so this should be the start of said promise!
I love weird games and hope to make many videos on them in the future, but with Konami being such a hot topic right now, why not take a look at some weirdness they created?
Screw Konami
***** I love the Wii and I can't believe I never heard of Dewey. Great video for my third fav game makers as a kid (Square as #1 and Capcom as #2).
***** *off topic* how do you feel about kirby triple deluxe
***** Do You realize who else has brought up Koniami recently. Johnny & Jim Sterling.
+AntDude I don't understand what you said at around 4:04 ~ how exactly is it "incredibly creepy" that a girl reads a story to a boy? can you explain please? thank you! : )
Dewy's Adventure: 3D Fluidity
* Black stuff you have t get rid of
* Play as water
* Water can turn into ice or steam
* Tilt Wii-Remote to move water around
Need I say more?
I can't argue with that
4:00
You have to admit though that the artwork is absolutely gorgeous.
What are some games YOU enjoy that you can simply describe as weird?
***** YuGiOh........ Yes
***** Well I discovered a game called Mibibli's Quest from another TH-camr so... that.
*****
Gitaroo Man. No one ever knows what I'm talking about when I talk about this game. :/
***** Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearer. I think that one comes to mind because it isn't even weird in the ways you would expect it to be.
But in terms of Japanese WTFISEVEN games, Mischief Makers comes to mind. I don't think it's quite as weird as these games, but if you think about it, it's kinda weird. Especially towards the end of world 3. Mischief Makers is also a fantastic game.
The Battle cats
Dewy is one of my favorite Konami games actually.
I know, I'm weird. But it's so cute and fun and unique. I love it.
Same
Me too the game is so underrated
Antdude seems alot more chilled out in his later vids, it kinda caught me off guard.
Also, Nostalgia!
This is my favourite video from you. Especially the end of the Upa segment.
You need to update this with the weirdest konami game ever, Metal Gear Survive. :/
Some_Stupid_Nerd the funny thing is I would have liked metal gear survive if it was dlc for v like read dead's undead nightmare and also came out 4-5 years earlier before the genre was done to dead.
leek of www.nu.nl/tvgidsTV gids voor marketing van
These were the weirdest lol
Some_Stupid_Nerd the sad thing too was it actually could of been cool if it wasn’t overladen with micro transactions and also in terms of story
MASSIVE SPOILERS FOR MGSV:
Seriously though you could have played as the medic in a world where he never became big boss and we could watch him sorta become his own legend instead of being forced to be someone else. Doesn’t that sound pretty cool. Like imagine a new diamond dogs run by the new Boss.
maybe the baby is trying to save his sibling who got taken by that weird thing
Yeah! Probably
That's What I Thought! But Again, It Can Be Any Baby.
I think the weird thing might be Krampus? I mean, Krampus is known for taking away children via a basket (like the intro) and has a pagan goat appearance (like the final boss).
Upa saves another baby from SATAN.
Deep
Quick comment: The girl in a kimono was referencing a Japanese fairy tale about Kaguya, the princess of the moon. It has to do with a bamboo cutter finding a tiny girl in a stalk of bamboo, sort of like Thumbelina. This same legend is also referenced in Okami, by the way. Also, in Japan, rather than the "man in the moon" they see a rabbit, and there's a legend about how it got there.
"I've never played a game with a baby before, so points for originality!"
Ahem... KIRBY himself is a baby. A baby star warrior, mind you. XD
I don’t think it’s confirmed that Kirby’s a baby, just, Kirby sure acts like one.
@@shardtheduraludon In the anime it's implied episode 1
@@reydesonic I thought Right Back At Ya’ was it’s own canon that didn’t effect the games.
@@shardtheduraludon Well Sakurai directed it himself so I'm sure he threw in some canon explanations to certain things. But it could also be just for the anime, like, you know, Meta Knight's voice and everything lol.

Nice
Mice!

Hudsonsolf made Mario Party before Konami took them.
Then we got Mario Party 9.
Screw Konami.
Mario Party 9 is excellent, I think, because it finally fixed the glacial pace the previous games had and the minigames are great, if somewhat lacking in numbers. Besides, there's 11 Mario Party games that still have the "classic" MP gameplay, so I'd say it's a much needed change of pace.
Arthur2light Konami didn't make Mario Party 9. It was developed by Nd Cube, though technically it's still hudson soft making mario party games as alot of the employees are staff that developed the previous hudson mario party games (+ Sonic Shuffle if you count that). I think you may need to double check your research. :P
Hudson developed both Bomberman and Bloody Roar.
Screw Konami.
Arthur2light Am I the only one who likes MP9?
+Scythe-Master Inc. Opinions, people. I've never played Mario Party 9, but you can't just call other persons retarded because you don't like it.
One of your best yet. What a great and... interesting send-off. RIP Konami. RIP Hudson Soft. Fuck Konami.
"Hello, is that Konami?"
"Yes, sir."
"PISS OFF-"
Makes sense why Dewie's weakness is water. He falls, in, and it's like getting trapped in a sea of people.
It's like Goron Link, who dies in water because he sinks like a... rock.
One of the older Parodius games had a boss that was a tanuki.
With visible genitals.
Guess where you can shoot to interrupt his attacks. Just guess.
Slashthekitsune the tail!
Slashthekitsune the dick
Slashthekitsune You Shoot The Invisible genitals. What? You Didn't Hear It Had Invisible genitals?
The head.
If this was TVTropes, there'd be a link to Groin Attack.
"Weirdest Konami games"
Job Island: Am I a joke to you?
Now I want to get Dewys Adventure.
((I just like the art.))
The artist same who made the anime made in abyss
WHAT
11:28 My thoughts exactly.
What are you doing here shouldn't you be working on a video
YEA XD
#FucKonami
NO MORE BOMBERMANNNN!!!
Why konamy WHYYYY
Nice New intro, Ant!!!
UUPPAAA!!!!!
"Never before have I loved a pig."
Waddles is disappointed.
I've finally found my father! He was in Japan the entire time!
XD
😆
works in weird videogames?
if the answer is yes, is your father
Plz tell its kojima
Treefingers hmm?
Right when you made that sugary levels are "sweet" pun, the video broke. No, seriously, the video literally CRASHED the moment you said "Sweet". Good job.
love your content,you just earned a subscriber
i love the parodius series!!! even though the classical music would make it extremely hard to bring over(and konami digging their own grave with how much their asking for it with their decisions.)really would love to see a collection of the games.(along with gradius & otomedius.:3)
UPA!
I bought Dewy’s Adventure when I finally found it 3 years after seeing this
The weirdest game I've probably played is Spongebob Creature from the Krusty Krab. Trust me, that game can be quite the mind fuck.
WreckitFinntheSonic I have that game on PS2, and it's a mindfuck, especially the Plankton levels.
NZ Man123 I think what mindfucked me the most was the Alaskan Bull Worm, not just the level, but also at the ending. Tho it's a pretty good game and I like it!
WreckitFinntheSonic It was just....a thing that kinda exists XD. But it was a creative game I'll give them that.
Man, I remember Dewy's Adventure. I would always play it with my friend after school
Good times, good times...
DEWY'S ADVENTURE FOR NX!!!!!
AnutDude92 where did you get that Phoenix Wright poster from! I need it now!!
***** I ordered it from eBay! Randomly searching for Ace Attorney stuff. It's a fabric poster and it was surprisingly cheap.
*****
What about that poster holder? I need to get more, but the ones I get kinda suck. The one you have looked very nice.
Sam A OBJECTION
AntDude you used to be Ant Dude92?!?
The first game you showed, Bio Miracle I’m Upa (the title in English) actually has more story than it seems. Here’s the real, actual story from Wikipedia (which is probably taken from the instruction manual or something, as there’s quotations in it suggesting such):
"Upa is the prince of a magical kingdom and the most recent in a line of brave fighters. One day, though, he broke an urn containing the spirit of Zai, an incredibly evil goatish demon who takes the life force of the kingdom's adults and kidnaps all the babies - except for Upa, who is given a magical rattle by a fairy who was trapped in the urn along with Zai. And so, in order to save his kingdom, Upa crawls into action..."
I'm getting some peanut butter gamer vibes
Tyler Daberoni he even said "video gameessss" the same way pbg once said "im playing video gameesssss" when pbg was playing a wii game
So if someone adds a little alliteration to their dialogue they are ripping off another TH-camr?
Warren Brown So if someone points out a similarity they are accusing one of the similarities of ripping off the other one?
Fightmaster what??
Warren Brown similarities don't mean rip offs
I think I can explain the final boss of Upa: The appearance of Satan is sometimes described as having the body of a man while having the head of a goat...so maybe Upa is about Doomguy as an infant and how he's always been able to kick ass EVEN AS A BABY?
all his comedy is is bad puns........................................................................................i love it
**visible agreement**
8:46 you are Dovahkiin, the one who is destined to slay Alduin once and for all.
Go...
Fulfill your destiny.
Love your little PBG reference by cutting to face cam and saying "I'm playing video gaaaaames"
R.I.P Konami :'(
It is. But its not becuase Kojima is still alive and working!!!!!
R.I.P. D.N., YGOPro, and Yu-Gi-Oh in general.
Acsilverfish360 ... kirby is that u
nothing XD
Just kidding, You have a kirby profile!
The penguins are actually Penta and Penko!
They appeared in some of Konami's games, Antarctica Adventure, Penguin Adventure, and an NES game called "Yume Penguin Monogatari"
UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA UPA..................................................upa
U-PA! U-PA! UUUUUUU-PA!
*the ritual is starting*
I gotta say, I love the trend of all of these big name companies' most valuable assets saying: "Screw you! I'll make my own game company! With BlackJack and hookers!" .........................And then they did. And shitty big name companies lost out on literally millions of dollars, and everyone lived happily ever after. :D
Everyone remembers Frogger! Frogger was made like 20 years before I was born and that game was my childhood! Or at least, part of it. I really don’t know why I gravitated to retro games whenever I could as a child, despite modern (for the time) games being technically superior, but I did. Now that I think about it, I played loads of old games, Paperboy, Classic Sonic, Classic Mario, Frogger, Donkey Kong, Pole Positions, loads of classics.
Those aren't just two regular penguins. Those penguins are from another Konami series, Antarctic Adventure
I like this guy's ending nice job. "Konami says mobile gaming is the future, that just means they forgot how to make good games." *Claps Hands* Well played.
Dude I love your videos. I just started watching yesterday and I have to say I like the way you run things. You keep me interested more than any TH-camr I've discovered. Keep up the videos!
I think the main baddie in Upa is none other than Krampus. You know... the evil goat version of Santa that goes around abducting and punishing bad kids.
And that, kids, is why I have a DeviantArt Favorite Collection dedicated to joke art called _Parodius._
Awesome video Ant! I may check out the Parodius series, it looks fantastic!
"...first episode on weird games..."
There was never a second episode.
It makes sense that dewy dies from water as he combines with the body of water as he forgets it's identity. Not knowing his own self, he contemplates suicide.
1:47 The face of a truly sadistic killer. Kirby ain't got nothin' on him.
when naming off classic Konami games you forgot Silent Hill, that was a pretty damn inspirational game.
Dewy's adventure is a underrated classic that konami made.
You should have mentioned Konami's Monster Maulers. It's defenitely a one of a kind game based off of Super Sentai shows.
I used to play Upa as a kid so it's always fun to watch videos on it.
3:05 this goat along with the intro goat is called krampus, you can tell by the basket on his back
Those exclamation points?
GENIUS.
did you forget about the weird noah game made by konami (basically, its a weird konami game) on the nes but probably isn't as weird as the other games you mentioned
Hey Frogger! I love Frogger. I broke a Frogger arcade machine once. It just continued to pop out tickets and didn't stop until we got someone to fix it. I got quite a few prizes from Dave and Busters that day. That was a good day.
Man the bananas in the background in the cake level at 08:53... clearly... very... definitely ambiguous.
You gotta play the PS1 version of jikkyo oshaberi parodius! Turn on "Accident" and turn off "roulette" in the options for the best experience.
4:52 OH A 3D Platformer you control with the Wiimote sideways that never led to debatably horrible controls *cough* SONIC & THE SECRET RINGS *cough*
bokkutte upa translates to "i'm upa" so the title of the game is "bio miracle-i'm upa
3:45
The artist of that cinematic would go on to make Into the Abyss.
I love Dewey's adventure wii 4:00
Blue stickman guy is called Koitsu, literally translating to "This Guy". He's a Yu-gi-oh card.
9:02 hey, it's the William tell overture!
Game #1 was featured in a "Let's Play" by Deceased Crab, who specializes in playing games with funny commentary.
You forgot that there is a special stage in that last game with an invincible enemy called the 16 Bit Block.
Love this video, honestly one of my favs in a long time. Keep up the great work :)
Upa is like if Dig Dug was a platformer.
The girl in the kimono is from a story in Japan about a girl who was unknowingly the princess of the moon, and there's a rabbit on the moon in Japan's mythology that can make people live forever
2:40 I love your taste in music, pal! Even if it was for a second...
8:24. IS THAT FREAKING DON FLAMENCOS THEME FROM PUNCH OUT?? HOLY CRAP!
Puddle, even if it was only published by Konami, is a liquid physics based platformer similar to Dewy's adventure but more so to Fluidity. I can barely find anything on the internet but the music is very weird and trippy but in a cool way. Also, it's much more adult as one point you get drank by a human and you venture inside their body. And it's very disturbing. It also has a very creepy atmosphere with some parts of the game not even having music. And the plot of the game isn't really a plot, but moreso a bunch of linear levels where the actions of you cause pretty bad stuff (as a liquid)
Oh and the ending is very weird, with the sequence being probably 2nd not trippy video game ending scene (first is FF8) which is "spoilers"
The liquid you are currently controlling powers up the nuclear power plant causing you to be sent back in time in a very bright sequence, with footage from the previous levels which circles around to the beginning of the game with the coffee cup. The whole game is the butterfly effect.
Ok that Dewy’s Adventure part was interesting and funny at the same time
I remember Frogger, mostly because it was one of the few SNES games I had.
Parodius? That means...ugh, more Sexy Parodius?...No? SWEET! JUST THE NORMAL WACKY NON-SMUTTY PARODIOUS!
That game looks amazing, and the "!"'s were a beautiful touch. XD
*WAIT WAIT* is the illustrator for Dewy's Adventure is the one who drew Made in Abyss??
Yes.
According to AntDude, a pig with a big mouth is just Birdo's head.
1:27
his memes were a head of his time and he didn't even know it
2:01 I think there are these electric pig things in Japan that have mouths like that and they emit smoke to help keep insects away.
I remember getting Pokemon Ruby, and my sister bought Dewy, I also remember Hot dogs. That was a good day.
I'm pretty sure that the thing that kidnaps the baby/the final boss in that baby game is Krampus. At least I think so.
i'm fairly sure "paroduis" got a remaster on steam called "cat girl without salad"
*first boss battle song plays* "i wonder if its a bear" *bear appers* "huh"
5:55 "YEAH, VIDEOGAMES!"
3:49 Oh god... what is that song. Great. Now I'm going to have to sift through every ace attorney track to find it.
No I can't find it. For the love of god someone save me!
+Will Arnett Strange People from Gyakuten Kenji 2. Hope this helps, mate!
luke johnston Bless your soul. I thought I'd never find it!
The first game he talked about... doesnt it remind you of a game about a child (baby) who goes into a weird reality where he traverses into the basement and fights a goat (lambgod) at the end, and jumps into a chest? 'cough' Binding of isaac anyone? This game really looks like an inspiration that edmund might have used.
am I the only one who who thinks AntDude and PBG have alot in common with their comedy routine? They should Collab :3
I think Upa fought the devil. Much weirder than first thought
Sword of Etheria. Almost entirely unnoticed Konami game. Ps2 title.
MustardPig is my real name though. Full name Mustard Alexander Pig. In all seriousness I appreciate the shoutout. Awesome review as always!
Aka "Oh, THAT'S where that character from Parodius is from"
I shall create a game weirder than all these 3 games together, and I shall call it... The fantastic Mr. Pigasus!
totally just stumbled upon your video, and I'm uber glad that I did! you sir have a new subscriber 😁
