1:52 it's a Japanese thing. Any kind of worker always has a hard hat on, even the guy just holding the slow down/stop sign when there's road work, even if he's in no danger of anything falling on his head.
Huh. That's weird. I wonder why they'd include that in tasks that don't need a hard hat. It DOES make sense in a factory setting though, since machinery can fall apart over time.

You gotta play the inspiration for these games that’s on the OG Gameboy, Donkey Kong ‘94. That game is so ahead of its time and had so many mechanics. That game truly deserves a remake.
The voice clips in Mario vs DK are recycled from what I can tell. Since it was on the GBA, so it made sense why Charles Martinet's voice is the same voice

the only game I've played in this series is Mini-Land Mayhem, which has completely different gameplay. In that game the minis are doing the levels, but they move automatically and you can only control them by making paths and walls for them. I remember it being pretty fun tbh, it's just a LOT of micromanaging.
Yeah, when I heard they were remaking a Mario vs donkey Kong game, I thought it would be one of those. I didn’t realize there were other entries in the series
Here's a trick I learned when I was younger on how to remember stalactites vs stalagmites. StalaCtites are on the Ceiling, and stalaGmites are on the Ground.
When I went to see The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie back in 2004, we got there so early that the previous screening was just ending. when the people were on their way out from it, I snuck in just to watch the credits, and...something in that theater was magic. This was back in 2004 when credits were still normally just black with white text, so the having yellow text and footage of crashing waves in the background, waves that big on a screen that big, was mesmerizing. SpongeBob & Patrick Confront the Psychic Wall of Energy by the Flaming Lips, Just a Kid by Wilco But then... Hearing The Best Day Ever for the first time floored me for the simple fact that SpongeBob got to sing a credit song for his own movie. Credits were different back then and this was unheard of at the time. And then at the very end, again we take mid and end credit bonus scenes for granted nowadays thanks to Marvel, but in 2004 it wasn't something you could expect, so that end credit scene with the Pirates, being the only one left in the theaters to catch it, I felt like I saw a UFO. And this was all before actually Seeing the movie itself from the start. That's my most core memory watching a movie in theaters.
I remember having my own sort of cool theater experience with The Incredibles 2. I remember whenever the baby, Jack Jack would teleport out of existence, the speakers made it sound like he was floating around the auditorium, where we were watching the movie. It was so convincing that I looked up, to see if Jack Jack was actually there. There’s something about watching movies in the theater that just can’t be replicated on physical media, and streaming.
@@Kaisona2017 I had that very specific experience with Monsters Inc (2001) When the helicopters were flying outside of Mike and Sulley's apartment, it sounded like they were flying around outside above the theater. I remember it being the first time theater speakers sounded That real to me.
Man, Dragonball and especially Dragonball Z was huge in my childhood. Even my mom watched it. I remember her complaining about Cell not fucking dying after what Goku had to do, lol. We even liked GT for the most part. Lost my mom last year and now Toriyama is gone, too. It sucks, man.
I'm sorry for your loss, and also based on how Cell described how he survived the self-destruct attack, he SHOULD have died to that Kamehameha from Goku in that fight.
@@tompeter717 There IS death from falling in the original, and the stun from falling was nerfed here as well. The height you'd die from is the stun height now, and death height doesnt exist
I almost thought they got rid of fall damage entirely because half the falls I’ve seen people take would’ve resulted in such. It’s not a big deal but it makes the game feel too easy now. I prefer the original game’s fall damage/deaths.
I think they remade this game *most* people didn't ask for is because they wanted to "test the waters" Like, seeing if people like this playstyle and want more of these games n' stuff.
My earliest memory and introduction of Dragon Ball was when I was 6 at a friend's house in the Frieza Arc, i saw Goku transform into a Super Sayian for the first time on VHS, I remember the first time I saw him do the backpose he was doing before he was looking upwards to the screen menacingly, pissed as all hell. It was the first time I felt chills even. I'm 20 now, and each and every single day I still rewatch through all of Dragon Ball, including DBZA and GT because that's how engulfed I am into the franchise. Truly will miss Toriyama. May God let his soul rest easy.
One core memory of mine is from seeing the Captain Underpants movie in theaters, the first day it aired, June 2nd. The best part about it was that it was my dad's birthday. It was one of the funniest ways to celebrate, but my family and I had a blast. Loved the movie, and I definitely recommend watching it if you haven't.
For me, my emotional movie attachment was with Wall-E. Rewatching it when I was older, I realized how amazing a silent movie can be, and it's depiction of love. And to think that back when I was a kid I only liked it purely for the goofy little trash robot.
Akira Toriyama gave me a similar amount of grief than Ash finally saying goodbye in Pokemon. I grew up with them too. RIP Akira Never thought the eras to our childhoods would end so soon
This game was my childhood joy in the GBA era. We didn't have the ice or carnival levels and their gimmicks, but everything else is almost exactly like the original.
I like the fact that Choctopus know that some of his viewer aren't Americans at all, for example : I'm from Brazil and I love his videos (Or "your videos" if Choctopus are reading this)
Finally more choc content! Thank you choc, you make everything better. Ps could you please one day play rhythm thief and the emperors treasure? It’s an amazing 3Ds game.
My best friend got me into dragonball through TFS's abridged when i was a freshmen highschool. I had a late start in dragonball but it's inspired so much of my creativity, and my gaming life since then that i genuinely feel like i lost a family member. You will be missed Akira Toriyama.
Hey Choc! I love your content and I wanna say I’m so stoked that you’ve 100% Mario vs. DK, a good mix of nostalgia with the commentary of one of my favorite game personalities out here is a match made in heaven!
I never really got into Dragonball, but I know Toriyama had a large impact on art styles and even other franchises like Sonic. May he rest in peace. Thanks for talking about it! I didnt know very much about him but it's nice to see the impact he had on people.
As a kid I remember seeing a Mario vs DK ad in a magazine, but I misunderstood the ad so I spent the longest time looking everywhere for a mini-Mario toy
Fun fact this is one of the most advertised games made by Nintendo of America rather than Nintendo of Japan. Nintendo of America usually works on marketing rather than game development so this is the first time one of there games has gotten this kind of marketing
I’m sure you’ve already been told this, but the other ‘Mario vs DK’/‘Mario and DK’ games are more like lemmings puzzle games rather then a puzzle platformer like this one. You should def check out Donkey Kong ‘94 on the GameBoy, it’s the true precursor to this game
It would be really cool to see you playing Donkey Kong 94, it's so good, definitely the one who needed a remake the most. Pretty retro though, in the Gameboy's tiny screen and I don't think you do this a lot. I only remember NES remix on Sidequest in terms of you and retro stuff. If you did play Gameboy games though, you would be legally obliged to play the Wario Land games.
Ended up taking my son to see Dragon Ball Super Super Hero in theaters. He fell in love. We have matching DBZ shirts and everything now. RIP Akira Toriyama. Thanks for everything.
I've got a core memory of going to see wreck it ralph when it came out in theatres with my grandma. she knows nothing about video games so looking back it might not have been an interesting movie to her but i had such a good time
To roof something (SW Ontario Canada here) specifically refers to getting a ball stuck on a roof. Usually at like elementary school recess. "We were playing soccer baseball, and then Greg roofed the ball, so no one won."
The "donuts" are officially called donut blocks. Except in japan, where they are named after a tubed fish cake. For some reason, mario Wiki says they are called bagel blocks in russia, but when you put the name given in any translator, it directly translate to donut block... so I don't know what's that about.
3:13 wait hold on that was just a passing comment, but I genuinely think Nintendo HELLA missed out by not making this a mobile game. It kinda feels perfect for a mobile adaptation. Hell I know I’d play it
I’d say something of a core memory related to seeing a movie is I remember being so excited to see Eragon in theaters when it was my favorite book series. Only for that excitement to turn into sheer disappointment as I watched.
This game takes place well after Mario is retired. That’s why he moves slow and stiff and can’t jump well. Also he has fully commercialized his life and adventures not toys and whatnot. Why is he not wrinkly or white haired? Botox and hair dye. Mario has always dyed his mustache. That’s why it’s a different color than his hair.
Back in the day 100% required you to not only grab every present, but also finish with a high enough score, which often involved reseting entirely if you died in the second half as the timer bonus would shorten drastically if you respawned on the second stage.
I remember being surprised at summer camp by my best friend's mom on my birthday. She just told me we were going to celebrate. What she didn't tell me was that we were going to see Spider-Man 2, which literally came out that day, because she knew he was my favorite hero. To this day, it's still one of my favorite super hero movies, and that probably helps. Awesome surprise! 😊
I don't remember how old I was, but I remember I was either in middle or early high school. I went on a field trip to Washington D.C. to visit the Smithsonian Museums. In one of them was a theater, and the premiere while I was there, which I got to see, was Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian. It was an amazing experience because not only was it a good movie (and still is), but I got to go back afterwards and see all the scenes I saw in the movie live. It was an experience I'll never forget.
I don't have a core memory about seeing a movie in the theater, but I do have one with MvsDK and a movie. One day I was playing a DS one, either March of the Minis or Minis March again, and I was in some of the respective metallic/magnetic levels. Well, while I was playing that, the TV on my room was in Disney XD playing the movie Mars Needs Moms. And for some reason, a snapshot of a specific part of one specific level was burned into my memory and tied to something like "Mars Needs Mom was playing at this moment". So every time I play that level I am just reminded about that movie. But sometimes even while thinking about those games, as that picture of me holding my 3DS in a specific part of the level is imbued in my memory, I sometimes just end up remembering that and thus the movie. I haven't seen that movie in years, but I know that if I encounter it again some day I will just think bak about that level accordingly. More so, I remember that said movie even exists thanks to that game and level. If not I wouldn't have remembered it at all.
When you made the videos of Mario RPG I started playing the original version and I gotta say, I am having a boat-load of fun. Can’t wait to get the lazy shell
I've never been a big Dragon Ball fan, but I absolutely love Dragon Quest, and DQ would not be what it is today without Akira Toriyama. He took a pile of goo and shaped it into the most memorable lil guy in the whole world. His influence is felt damn near everywhere, and I think just about anyone who's been touch by his work in some way, or even just knows his scope of influence, is devastated by the news. Above everything else, I wish his friends and family heartfelt wishes as they're the ones suffering the most.
Core memory for me was getting my Nintendo DS Lite. Before I got it, my household was a strict "no video games" zone. If I went over a friend's house that had them or they brought a console over, that was fine, but I was NEVER allowed to have any. The year of my 10th birthday, i asked for a Nintendo DS. I knew I wasn't going to get it but I figured "what the heck, I'll give it a shot." My folks gave me the usual "you know the rules" song and dance and I figured that was that. My birthday rolls around, and my folks present to me my gift which was.... ...shoes. I take it in stride, saying how I needed new shoes and opened up the box to see a BRAND NEW NINTENDO DS LITE with a copy of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time. I cried and proceeded to play the thing for God knows how many years until I lost it during my flight to college.
It's always good to see one of your videos man. Especially After my feed has been nothing but battlefront Classic rants. Good to see TH-cam recommend something lighthearted and fun😊
Whaaaaaat they added entire new worlds? 🤯 Also very cute that they made the enemies into toys aswell. And since you didn‘t know what‘s in the Presents i guess they took out those minigames aswell (which honestly isn‘t much of a loss) For everyone who doesn‘t know: In the original if you collected all three presents you got one of two little minigames and could get from zero up to two lives out of that.
I can answer your question about the presents; in the gba original, collecting all the gifts in a level would play a minigame at the end. The gifts had different kinds of 1-up mushrooms in each of them but 1 would have a DK head and if you got that one you lost
Eiffel 65 mention!! 👀👀 That first album of theirs you mentioned was one of the first CDs I bought that didn't feel "kiddie" to me lol; before that I listened to mainly German kids (and kids-adjacent) music plus Backstreet Boys but somehow, I think because my older brother was into EDM, I really heavily got into E65. Their second album (Contact) is actually my favourite :D also man yeah, Toriyama's passing just... hurts. So much. I haven't really been into DB for a long time, but I have fond memories of it; watched the old series as a kid when the term "anime" wasn't even a thing in Germany and by the time DBZ came out over here I was pretty hooked even though I wouldn't call this kind of series my thing anymore these days by a long shot. But well, Vegeta was one of my first fictional crushes lol also just due to all of that I kind of am where I am now; my DB-mania got me looking into the Japanese side of things, which in turn eventually led me to get a BA in Japanese Studies... doing fanart and fanfic for DBZ was where I really started with that sort of fandom interaction and they're some of my longest hobbies... Toriyama had quite the influence and it's probably not going to stop hurting for a long time...
When Donkey Kong is involved, you know Choc is on it! 🙌 Honestly this remake was both fun and pretty challenging, I also played through the OG GBA version
Core movie memory: when Avatar came out, my dad and I went to see it in the cinema three times because we were so enamoured by it. I still think it’s a great film to this day - especially the special effects and world building!
I love the DB franchise and was devastated when I heard that Akira Toriyama passed! I wasn't allowed to watch DBZ when I was little because it was too violent but started watching it again as a teen when my cousin reintroduced it to me and loved it! I watched DB, re-watched DBZ, GT, and Super. Such a fantastic franchise!
The way I see it is that rather than actually being Bowser's troops, shy guy types are more like an independent mercenary faction. Same for boos probably, they seem more about chaos than serving Bowser, plus King boo.
RIP Akira Toriyama
RIP Akira Toriyama 🙏🏽
He went even further beyond, and made the media get a zenkai boost.
May he rest in power.
Rest in peace, one of the legends of our time.
May he rest in the most peaceful way possible.

What she didn't tell me was that we were going to see Spider-Man 2, which literally came out that day, because she knew he was my favorite hero. To this day, it's still one of my favorite super hero movies, and that probably helps. Awesome surprise! 😊
0:05 Brother I know FF7 is an old game but man I’m playing the remakes as they come out and…Aerith and SEPHIROTHS SWORD?!?!?!

I found you while watching Rymestyle, SeaReax and DotoDoya and i'm so happy I did. You are hilarious ❤
I never planned on playing it at all, but if I did, you've saved me from the mistake. If there was a god, this would be his work.
I remember seeing the first trailer for the game and going, "Poor DK becoming a scalper to pay for his banana addiction."
The dk battle in slippery summit your supposed to handstand to block the ice falling at you you made it more difficult than it was intended
I don't remember how old I was, but I remember I was either in middle or early high school. I went on a field trip to Washington D.C. to visit the Smithsonian Museums. In one of them was a theater, and the premiere while I was there, which I got to see, was Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian. It was an amazing experience because not only was it a good movie (and still is), but I got to go back afterwards and see all the scenes I saw in the movie live. It was an experience I'll never forget.
I don't have a core memory about seeing a movie in the theater, but I do have one with MvsDK and a movie.
One day I was playing a DS one, either March of the Minis or Minis March again, and I was in some of the respective metallic/magnetic levels. Well, while I was playing that, the TV on my room was in Disney XD playing the movie Mars Needs Moms. And for some reason, a snapshot of a specific part of one specific level was burned into my memory and tied to something like "Mars Needs Mom was playing at this moment". So every time I play that level I am just reminded about that movie. But sometimes even while thinking about those games, as that picture of me holding my 3DS in a specific part of the level is imbued in my memory, I sometimes just end up remembering that and thus the movie. I haven't seen that movie in years, but I know that if I encounter it again some day I will just think bak about that level accordingly. More so, I remember that said movie even exists thanks to that game and level. If not I wouldn't have remembered it at all.
When you made the videos of Mario RPG I started playing the original version and I gotta say, I am having a boat-load of fun. Can’t wait to get the lazy shell
I've never been a big Dragon Ball fan, but I absolutely love Dragon Quest, and DQ would not be what it is today without Akira Toriyama. He took a pile of goo and shaped it into the most memorable lil guy in the whole world. His influence is felt damn near everywhere, and I think just about anyone who's been touch by his work in some way, or even just knows his scope of influence, is devastated by the news.
Above everything else, I wish his friends and family heartfelt wishes as they're the ones suffering the most.
Core memory for me was getting my Nintendo DS Lite. Before I got it, my household was a strict "no video games" zone. If I went over a friend's house that had them or they brought a console over, that was fine, but I was NEVER allowed to have any.
The year of my 10th birthday, i asked for a Nintendo DS. I knew I wasn't going to get it but I figured "what the heck, I'll give it a shot." My folks gave me the usual "you know the rules" song and dance and I figured that was that. My birthday rolls around, and my folks present to me my gift which was....
...shoes. I take it in stride, saying how I needed new shoes and opened up the box to see a BRAND NEW NINTENDO DS LITE with a copy of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time. I cried and proceeded to play the thing for God knows how many years until I lost it during my flight to college.
It's always good to see one of your videos man. Especially After my feed has been nothing but battlefront Classic rants.
Good to see TH-cam recommend something lighthearted and fun😊
Now all we need is a remake of the one before this
Whaaaaaat they added entire new worlds? 🤯
Also very cute that they made the enemies into toys aswell.
And since you didn‘t know what‘s in the Presents i guess they took out those minigames aswell (which honestly isn‘t much of a loss)
For everyone who doesn‘t know:
In the original if you collected all three presents you got one of two little minigames and could get from zero up to two lives out of that.
This series as a whole is my childhood. It’s a blast!

And those flames extinguish the hell out of you.
Stalactites hold TIGHT on the ceiling. You MIGHT trip over Stalagmites
:D
Oh, hey! Thanks 😊
@@Lambina-ot6jf your welcome bud :D
"Oh look it's Moltres"
[ear rape GB gen 1 cry]
made me laugh
The rivalry that saved the gaming industry was Popeye and Bluto
I can answer your question about the presents; in the gba original, collecting all the gifts in a level would play a minigame at the end. The gifts had different kinds of 1-up mushrooms in each of them but 1 would have a DK head and if you got that one you lost
Eiffel 65 mention!! 👀👀
That first album of theirs you mentioned was one of the first CDs I bought that didn't feel "kiddie" to me lol; before that I listened to mainly German kids (and kids-adjacent) music plus Backstreet Boys but somehow, I think because my older brother was into EDM, I really heavily got into E65. Their second album (Contact) is actually my favourite :D
also man yeah, Toriyama's passing just... hurts. So much. I haven't really been into DB for a long time, but I have fond memories of it; watched the old series as a kid when the term "anime" wasn't even a thing in Germany and by the time DBZ came out over here I was pretty hooked even though I wouldn't call this kind of series my thing anymore these days by a long shot. But well, Vegeta was one of my first fictional crushes lol
also just due to all of that I kind of am where I am now; my DB-mania got me looking into the Japanese side of things, which in turn eventually led me to get a BA in Japanese Studies... doing fanart and fanfic for DBZ was where I really started with that sort of fandom interaction and they're some of my longest hobbies... Toriyama had quite the influence and it's probably not going to stop hurting for a long time...
When Donkey Kong is involved, you know Choc is on it! 🙌 Honestly this remake was both fun and pretty challenging, I also played through the OG GBA version
This guy randomly popped up for me today been watching some of his videos. He has an amazing ability to talk to himself. It’s honestly impressive.
I do my best work alone.
This game was my childhood. Man i love this game.
Minis March Again was the only game I played but I had so much fun with it. Glad there’s a new game out
Core movie memory: when Avatar came out, my dad and I went to see it in the cinema three times because we were so enamoured by it. I still think it’s a great film to this day - especially the special effects and world building!
I love the DB franchise and was devastated when I heard that Akira Toriyama passed! I wasn't allowed to watch DBZ when I was little because it was too violent but started watching it again as a teen when my cousin reintroduced it to me and loved it! I watched DB, re-watched DBZ, GT, and Super. Such a fantastic franchise!
2:45 had me on the flooooor
The way I see it is that rather than actually being Bowser's troops, shy guy types are more like an independent mercenary faction. Same for boos probably, they seem more about chaos than serving Bowser, plus King boo.
