Don't forget to stop by ps3 eshop to get a ton of ps1/ps2 games not available elsewhere. Games that cost hundreds to over $1000 IRL for used copies for $6-$20 each on ps3 eshop. I know its digital and physical media is best, but if there is no other option and for the sake of preserving gaming history. Xenogears, Vagrant Story, all the Suikoden, Parasite Eve 1+2, old SMT/Persona, FF1-9, Tactics, Grandia , Mega Man Legends 1+2, Misadventures of Tron Bonne. Take advantage of the ps3 eshop while it's up. I know emulation is an option, just saying in case. RIP eshops: Wii Wii U DSi 3DS
You ought to check out the third Jumping Flash game, "Robbit mon Dieu". A ton of really charming cutscenes with expressive characters utilising a bunch of face textures. Really impressive stuff.
The PS1 has a soul and charm to it with the early 3D models, graphics and backgrounds, gaming will never have this level of soul and charm again, you know what they say, _”Limitations bring about creativity”_
Kingsley's Adventure has pretty good use of sprite face animations as well. Donald Duck Goin Quackers tried some sprite animations too, but the N64 version makes them work fine while the ps1 version is rather messy. Speed Freaks/Punks meanwhile went for sort of Raymanish character designs and they're very expressive.
Dang. It’s such a short tune, but Apple Market is just a slap of nostalgia. I should play Megaman legends again sometime. Fear effect looks like a total gem. Will have to check that one out.
I love PS1 graphics! It pains me when people say they look bad or didn’t age well, even as a joke. I genuinely think that PS1 games look just as great as they did back then all the way up to now.
I played Mega Man Legend's 1&2 not to long ago using an emulator on my modern monitor so all the graphics are cleaned up and way sharper ,Just remember on original hardware using A.V. Cords on a CRT TV. with the slightly rounded screens, it was way less detailed which is one reason I love emulating older games and upscaling the graphics.
With your well done editing as well as your interesting and witty writing topped with the good audio quality I expected to find a huge backlog of new videos to watch on your channel. Then I realised it’s your first video! Great job. Looking forward for more!
This was a great video! Whether consciously or not, I think I borrowed a lil from Megaman's style facial animations for my vtuber. It's pretty much just png texture swaps of different eyes, then I applied that to a Spider-Man head. Never realized that till this video got me thinking bout it. Great video tho! Subbing now, investing my memestock early! Can't wait to see you blow up
6:16 I almost spit out my food! I've been looking for this gem for like over twenty years, I played it on a demo disc every day after school and have very fond memories of it, can't believe I found it!
I've always been interested in the Fear Effect series just by the visual style alone (also because a TH-cam channel I used to watch a couple of years ago talked about it in a video about PlayStation 1 games). Might give it a go one of these days (also fanservice is no problem for me so it won't detract from the experience, lol)
You should definitely give it a go, honestly the gameplay isn't that great but it's worth it for the story and characters (visual style is top notch), and I don't care much for fanservice either, but the scene cited in the video in particular was a little too much hahaha
I have to give kuddos to your editing. It's pristine, it's fun and it has quite the character -- and it helps that everything else is in great quality. Bravo!
cacete leo o video ficou MUITO bom qq é isso nunca joguei nada de ps1 mas assisti tudo porque ficou bom demais (e pra dar aquele suporte também lógico)
After watching your video as a TH-cam recommendation I quickly went to your channel to start the next one to play (I put some TH-cam videos to play I'm the background while I'm fixing a water leak in my house at 12:00 AM). To my surprise there was only one. It's pretty great for a first video. Keep going. 👍🏽
What's wild is I think Mega Man Legends is actually the first 3D action-adventure game and it is one of if not the best looking 3D action-adventure game on the PS1 and maybe even N64. It predated Ocarina of Time which is what I see most people claim is the first 3D AA, but MML had already set the bar really high for 3D AA games. You'd think it copied Zelda, not the other way around.
My bad I totally missed that one. When I finished posting the video and sent it to a friend who is a fan of RPGs, the first thing he said was "I hope you mentioned Vagrant Story" and i was like oh no....
Estou impressionado com a qualidade do vídeo, não imaginei que era o primeiro, parabéns pelo trabalho bem feito! Fico feliz em ver mais canais BR discutindo sobre "curiosidades" de jogos, não só algumas análises básicas... pretende eventualmente fazer em português? Vi fear effect na thumbnail e não pude não clicar, esse jogo merecia mais reconhecimento, pena que o remaster morreu silenciosamente :(
Muito obrigado! Eu descobri Fear Effect quando estava pesquisando jogos pra esse video e fiquei bem triste quando vi que cancelaram o remaster. Sobre videos em portugues, eu cheguei a fazer alguns um tempo atras mas flopou bastante KK, pra esse ano decidi começar do 0 em inglês pra atingir um publico maior. Só esse primeiro video já pegou mais view e comentário do que todos os antigos kkkkkk.
in my opinion Brave Fencer Muasashi is the best game ever made for ps1, i also suggest Shining Force EXA for ps2, and these 3 games on NES, Dragon Spirit the New Legend, Robowarrior, Swords and Serpents
I actually had a prior channel but the videos were in my native language (brazillian portuguese) and i didn't manage to find an audience so i created this new channel in english, and with the response that Im getting here, I guess its working. Thanks for the sub! :)
@@nittabytes é, o conteúdo retrogame não é tão forte no Brasil quanto é nos EUA e no Reino Unido, espero que tu continue a crescer, meu bom, abraço pra tu aí, sucesso!!
"unfortunately for us, the cheating stops at massage..." ...Oh dear, nobody tell him about the original Japanese version's unsurprising explanation for the moaning :P
Opened this video on a VPN so it doesn't track me as a Brazilian User. Then I realized it wouldn't make any difference. Anyway, NICE video, nice editing, hope you get that awesome ad sense eventually
The video was doing well until you suddenly shifted subject to strange dialogue. I felt lured into something I didn't wanna watch, and ultimately lost interest in the rest of the video.
Sorry about that :/ While the main subject is the expressive facial animations, I wanted to share more about the games themselves because i believe the dialogue also enhances the expressiveness. But thanks for the comment and the criticism, this is my first video so I appreciate it!
pretty sure there was a focus on the strange dialogue to show the expressiveness of the characters during it? i think the video did well all the way through
My bad guys i missed out on Vagrant Story...
Damn right you did.
@@ultramon_64 sorry :(
@@nittabytes No worries my man. Glad you mentioned it! :)
Ps1 Hagrid's face is legendary for how uncanny it is
RIP Toriyama
"Bubsy 3D" has some decent animation for a 1996 release.
It does! They kinda nailed the whole cartoon aspect of the character, even tho the rest of the game is what it is.
Never mention “Bubsy 3D” in a positive light ever again.
@@omaegaa No such thing as a bad game, only bad audience. Art is entirely subjective.
@@genyakozlov1316 it was a joke dude
Um Jammer Lammy always stood out to me, especially the Cutscenes they are so over the top

Im in love with some of these ps1 character designs, definitely the golden age for me and something I find games today lack.
i cannot believe the video does not feature Vagrant Story.
i forgor.... :(
Crash Bandicoot Warped face animations are ridiculously detailed for the time when they are talking in the blue portals
Talking about facial expressions in PS1 games I'm suprised you didn't even shed some light on Vagrant Story
yeah i learned from the comments that missing out on vagrant story was a big mistake...
You ought to check out the third Jumping Flash game, "Robbit mon Dieu". A ton of really charming cutscenes with expressive characters utilising a bunch of face textures. Really impressive stuff.
That looks so good! I'm receiving a lot of cool game recommendations in the comments, I should probally make a follow up to this video in the future.
I love expressive face PS1 game characters. I wish they made more back in the day especially in Metal Gear Solid.
Theres really a special charm to them!
I love how the low poly anime style has made a comeback among the indy dev community. I really ought to add more expression to my passion project
The Frog themed patformer character in PS1 style must hug the character so badly
Frogun is amazing! And theres an expansion / sequel coming this year
What i love about cellshaded games is how it is basically pixel art on 3d models.
look up 2:10 AM Animation its full of prime examples of why I love Cell-shad
New good yt channel just dropped
The PS1 has a soul and charm to it with the early 3D models, graphics and backgrounds, gaming will never have this level of soul and charm again, you know what they say,
_”Limitations bring about creativity”_
Today's gaming have limitations too
"my man's literally a triangle" lmao
can't wait to see more nittabytes content!!! this first video SLAPPED
We really need a 1 hour video of NittaBytes only dubbing PS1 games with weird dialogue
i dont think we need that...
@@nittabytesI think we do
Edit: this is your first video? It’s very good
Kingsley's Adventure has pretty good use of sprite face animations as well. Donald Duck Goin Quackers tried some sprite animations too, but the N64 version makes them work fine while the ps1 version is rather messy. Speed Freaks/Punks meanwhile went for sort of Raymanish character designs and they're very expressive.
Vagrant Story has some good facial expressions and masterful cinematography.
Yeah Vagrant Story really is amazing, im mad at myself for missing that one and not including in the video.
Rinoa: “You’re the best looking guy here!”
Me: _”Whatever”_
Dang. It’s such a short tune, but Apple Market is just a slap of nostalgia. I should play Megaman legends again sometime. Fear effect looks like a total gem. Will have to check that one out.
I love PS1 graphics! It pains me when people say they look bad or didn’t age well, even as a joke. I genuinely think that PS1 games look just as great as they did back then all the way up to now.
the demakes into PS1 are some the coolest looking projects
In some ways they flat out look better. All the Odd world games look better on PS1
Hey! Those spaztic headbobs were very expressive for my child brain.
they still are
I played Mega Man Legend's 1&2 not to long ago using an emulator on my modern monitor so all the graphics are cleaned up and way sharper ,Just remember on original hardware using A.V. Cords on a CRT TV. with the slightly rounded screens, it was way less detailed which is one reason I love emulating older games and upscaling the graphics.
This PS1 game called 'Lightning Legend Daigo no Daibouken' has some pretty charming expressions too.
That looks great! Is always the anime games right?
Great video! Never even knew the Fear Effect game were on PS1 since it looked so good!!
Great video and enjoy the MegaMan Legends appreciation too. Looking forward to seeing your channel grow!
Crash is the best even crash 1 have expressions
He really is! Of all the platform game mascots of the time, Crash's model is by far the most expressive and has aged the best.
Also Aku Aku and the bosses in Crash 3 and CTR. N. Oxide is almost PS2 for how fluid it is.
I alway liked games that have stylistic graphics, they tend to age better
still thinking about poop as a collectible 😭
can't wait to see more videos like this one! awesome content
best part is the game dosent even bother to explain that at all 😆
Megaman legends is King in psx, nice video! Learned a lot about other games
It really is, once you get past the camera controls its a great time, and the visuals holds up so well
With your well done editing as well as your interesting and witty writing topped with the good audio quality I expected to find a huge backlog of new videos to watch on your channel. Then I realised it’s your first video!
Great job. Looking forward for more!

Sheep raider had quite expressive faces.
digimon world had some expressive faces
Never heard of Fear Effect! Definitely gonna try it out

Glad you found it! It is a great game, gameplay is okay but the story and characters are really entertaining

This video is soo good!! Loving your style of editing, keep up the good work!!!, the TH-cam algorithm blessed me with this recommendation
I think Im the one who's bleesed to get my video recommended to you, thanks a lot!
No, Hagrid from PS1 Harry Potter is certainly expressing something. Exactly what I'm not sure, but I've certainly felt it before
3 Videos every week please, thank you
cacete leo o video ficou MUITO bom qq é isso
nunca joguei nada de ps1 mas assisti tudo porque ficou bom demais (e pra dar aquele suporte também lógico)
How you say feces is absolutely adorable
this is my kinda shit, subbed
Great video. I still have nightmares remembering the no faces at all Granstream Saga characters. They did not even try
oh wow they really did not try at all haha, its crazy how a simple drawing in the texture like threads of fate does makes the game look a lot better
After watching your video as a TH-cam recommendation I quickly went to your channel to start the next one to play (I put some TH-cam videos to play I'm the background while I'm fixing a water leak in my house at 12:00 AM). To my surprise there was only one.

Thats great to hear! More videos are on the way :)
Mega Man Legends 1 and 2 are my favorites of the series. People should emulate that style more
What's wild is I think Mega Man Legends is actually the first 3D action-adventure game and it is one of if not the best looking 3D action-adventure game on the PS1 and maybe even N64.
It predated Ocarina of Time which is what I see most people claim is the first 3D AA, but MML had already set the bar really high for 3D AA games. You'd think it copied Zelda, not the other way around.
