Arcade Longplay [550] Forgotten Worlds

[@inendlesspain4724]

"Haw! The Dust Dragon is no match for us!" "It didn't take much to get rid of him" Dudes, the damn thing was kind of half dead when you fought it. It literally had its abdomen wide open and all...

[@Bruno-hd9qo]

What a piece of art by Akira Yasuda. The main designer of Street Fighter II, Final Fight...

[@kodoyama]

This game is off the charts amazing. It blew me away when it first arrived in the arcades and still does to this day.

[@fearanger1]

Remember my brother having a Capcom arcade collection on his PS2 that included this game, it was an absolute blast.

[@The_Broken_Monarch_Ch]

You have no idea how long ive been trying to find out what that game was. It was such a deep childhood memory. When i saw the box art i wanted to cry. Thank you and I hope you have an amazing life.

[@Anothy264]

this is my favorite shoot-em-up arcade game ever and I'm glad it was concluded in Capcom Arcade stadium.

[@KishorTwist]

One of my favorites in the arcade golden age (late 80s-90s). Fortunately playable forever with MAME!

[@dougggtheoof]

The moment I realize the main character is the Unknown Solider assist in Marvel Vs. Capcom

[@TailsGaming1999]

Wow he is... never realized that.

[@ArkVogel]

Wait... WHAT?

[@Mevenda1]

Whaaaa

[@austinreed7343]

Douglas Gordon The second player character is apparently Two P from Final Fight.

[@MrERLoner]

@@austinreed7343 the moment you realize the first player is the enemy J from Final Fight

[@GuiltyKit]

Still a wonderful game. Might not be the hardest, but the game has such a strong aesthetic that it makes up for it. Also, has the cutest shop girl of all time. I can't count how many times I played through it.

[@DrownedInExile]

The same Shopkeeper lady showed up in the fantasy realm of Mystara, for the D&D sidescrolling games. She deals in Zenny, so that means she also does business in the Breath of Fire realm.

[@Gloryboyquan]

2023 I beat this again ...used to play this on original Xbox with my cousin she has a kid now and I Have my life All Fucked up Now Good Times !!😢

[@grontleyschweebnalter2567]

Was obsessed with this game at the arcade when I was 12 - only game that I ever practiced down to beating on 1 quarter. Modded spinners onto my mame cabinet just for this.

[@Bangcat]

37:29 And we 'PLAY' for there will be no evil like the king of gods again! Engrish to become the gamer's quote.

[@Shadowdancer777]

Man. I just traveled back in time to my teens. This game brings back memories. I could smell the donuts from my local circle k. Flame thrower was the best weapon. Killed enemies alot faster.

[@yusakug]

I had forgotten all about this game. I used to go to my best friend's house at the time, and play this with him on his Genesis. Thanks for the memories!

[@tigerpause2470]

Whoever made this game was ahead of its time.I only played Nintendo in these days.I must say this game is good.

[@VahanNisanian]

The first CPS (Capcom Play System) game.

[@Bruno-hd9qo]

Vahan Nisanian And the same designer of Street Fighter 2

[@LaShea69]

Top 5 Games I had on Genesis that I couldn't beat without a Game Genie: 1. Shadow Blasters 2. Forgotten Worlds 3. X-Men and X-Men 2: Clone Wars 4. Captain America and The Avengers 5. Golden Axe (All 3 of them) Say what you will; these were games I never saw the ending of, and was my main goal.

[@LyricalMasterMind1]

LaShea69 Forgotten worlds is only easy with two players, The golden ax games are fairly easy in my opinion, The X-men games are legit challenging...especially the 2nd one

[@LaShea69]

I only had one controller for Forgotten Worlds. Golden Axe - yeah, I did beat them all when I got older, cause I couldn't do it as a kid.

[@vherostar]

I beat all the Golden axe gamers and Xmen and captain America but the other 2 nope..

[@JD-xz1mx]

Forgotten Worlds on Genesis isn't so bad once you realize how stupid overpowered the napalm satellite is. Buy it in level 2 and you don't have to upgrade again until the last stage. It vaporizes bosses in seconds.

[@walkdupon13]

The only and I never beat was asterix

[@TOTTO9508]

The thing i love the most about this game is the voice acting and the dialogue Its so bad and edgy that is hard not to laugh

[@Mechakick]

I'll burn him with my aura!!!

[@oatmeal7818]

It is kind comedy hahahaha

[@jiryensaber6090]

"THANK YOU VERY MACH NOW PEACE IS RETVRNING TO THIS TOWN AGAIN... AND WE PLAY THERE WILL BE NO EVIL LIKE THE KING OF GODS AGAIN." because if not... Yep, HE, "...will burn him with his Aura!!"

[@axgrata]

Thanks for posting this! One of my favorite arcade games from the early 90s. That 3rd boss always reminded me of a Unicron lookalike

[@EezeeGroover]

I used to love this game. Flying Contra. Had this for my Genesis. My favorite ammo was the flamethrower.

[@danieledwards1490]

"Did you find the guy!?" "I'll finish you today for sure" "Er, the guy. Did you find him!?"

[@BobbyBaudoin]

Still looks amazing to this day, love it!

[@seanwilkinson3975]

Ding dling-ding don don ding Ding dling-ding don don ding Ding dling-ding don don ding Ding ding ding - wof wof wof! I love that tune that plays when you enter the shop.

[@gunma747j]

Sean Wilkinson lol

[@dee12yearsago88]

I still remember playing this back when i was 6 and would get hyped whenever the shop pops up even tho i cant read sht. The music would make me feel strong 🤣

[@edrepresentin]

This brings back so many good memories

[@m.firzafadmaputra9569]

Forgotten Worlds is the first CAPCOM Play System (CP System) game ever seen and commonly use for Street Fighter II, the main protagonist of this game is Unknown Soldiers. Forgotten Worlds is the part of Street Fighter universe.

[@imthinkinwacky2859]

Capcom needs to re-release this game on PSN and XBA. It looks WAY too awesome not to.

[@KarlSturmgewher]

Well it's on Switch through the Arcade Stadium.

[@ShadowMoon878]

It was part of the Capcom Classic Collection on PS2 and is available on Steam.

[@grontleyschweebnalter2567]

Back in 90' my grandma would drop me off at the arcade with $2 and go mall-walk. After a month of obsession with this game, I finally beat it on $2 (and whatever I could scrounge out of the pinball machine coin returns)... after another month, I got it down to beating the game on one quarter and would hand the game over to whoever was watching my 10 year old ass save the earth.

[@castlevaniatrump1777]

The dust dragon tried to use its ribs as a weapon as its chest lay tore open with his beating heart next to them

[@Gaminggod1997BAGR]

Castlevania Trump fucking metal

[@lancebukkake]

This game was called "Lost Worlds" in Japan - I must've dropped countless 50-yen coins in the machine playing this game. I freggin love this game!!!

[@blofeld2430]

_ Hear me out, it's like Tomb Raider, but with a shirtless, buff, shades wearing dude flying and shooting his way though temples. _ Hell yeah

[@VahanNisanian]

Music was done by Tamayo Kawamoto and Yoshihiro Sakaguchi.

[@Bloodreign1]

+Vahan Nisanian And Tamayo became far more famous later on when she left Capcom to work for Taito with the Zuntata sound team. That team could take a game and give it an incredible soundtrack.

[@dlfrsilver]

anybody noticed the characters taken from Hokuto No Ken (Fist of the north star) ? The Two brothers, using cutting wires and guarding the door ? note also that the god of war is no other than Raoh ! They have exactly reproduced him inside forgotten worlds :D !!!!

[@Mechakick]

Yeah I noticed the two brothers, right out of the anime.

[@edwardgaines6561]

Capcom cribbed a lot of characters from HNK, if you look at the Street Fighter characters.

[@SaitohYatate]

Edward Gaines Street Fighter characters are a hotpot mainly consisting of designs pulled straight from Hokuto No Ken, Jojo, and old martial arts movies.

[@edwardgaines6561]

@@SaitohYatate Oh yeah, Vega was the nameless Shura. Rolento was based on the eye-patched Colonel. Urien is Yuda + Souther with a tan. And Urien wants to be "The Emperor." 😀

[@vicvinegar2405]

This and R-Type were my jams back in the day.

[@user-sk3jz1gk2d]

Whenever i think of shoot em up games, i always think of this masterpiece

[@anthonycassimiro2295]

Those giant worm-like creatures drive me crazy.

[@SpecterSeventy2]

I don’t know how this was recommended in my YT feed but man did I love this game waaaaaay back in the day. Lol

[@moviemetalhead]

I played this once back in the day in arcades but I couldn't remember the name. Thanks Schlauchi!

[@Video-Games-Are-Fun]

used to play this in the arcades all the time. what a fun game!

[@tusheschannel]

The third boss looks awesome.

[@Kenou]

Wow @ 30:47 is the prison of Cassandra and Raiga and Fuga from Fist of the North Star aka Hokuto no Ken.

[@Bloodreign1]

The cloud stage (stage 7 I believe, the one with the crystal boss) on Capcom Classics Collection 1 didn't have the right music, instead Capcom replaced the tune with another stages song from the game. Really caught me off guard when I played it and noticed something was a tad off about it, that one stages BGM wasn't right.

[@Coatl360]

Holy Shit, Akiman really went all out with this game! No wonder it took two years to make

[@thewindthatblows]

And a million dollars

[@zazelby]

I used to love this game. One of the few arcade games I could finish at the time. (It's a little painful to watch others play, though, since they choose very different weapons from the ones I used to buy. The Dustdragon is extremely easy to beat with the Napalm Bomb, while the Laser or the Flamethrower takes out the War God pretty quickly, but this video uses the V-Cannon for so much of the game it hurts) Edit: Oh, geez, and then when he finally switches weapons, it's the Super Laser. The first boss he fights with it, he positions the Satellite so that it never hits the boss; the second boss he fights with it, who he actually hits with it, is IMMUNE TO LASERS. This whole run is becoming painful to watch. Edit again: Wait, then he fights Raiden and Fuujin (Laiden and Whodin) by NEVER TURNING TO AIM AT THEM? He spends the whole fight shooting directly to the right. A lot of the last stage is done the same way, with him shooting straight up most of the time. So, my final conclusion: painful to watch. I wish I had a Forgotten Worlds arcade machine (or a version of MAME where it worked).

[@Shadowdancer777]

zazelby lol. I Know what you mean. He was terrible. I beat the game and bosses in a much faster time.

[@minzy421]

They need to remake this for current gen console

[@TheDalien]

27:00 You can defeat the iceman easily with Napalm-weapon.

[@kruelandunusual-7679]

This brings back great memories. I remember playing with my little brother and we’d always fight over getting more coins than each other 😂

[@marcusholloway460]

here are the bosses for you guys First Boss: Magnetic Paramecium Boss 2: Dustdragon Boss 3: God of war Boss 4: Rah Boss 5: Centipede Boss 6: Tutenkamen Boss 7: Iceman Boss 8: Laidin & Whodin Final Boss: Bios

[@theblocksays]

"Bios" Guess they didn't wanna call it Lucifer since he's already in Ghouls N' Ghosts, even that's what he clearly looks like. How funny could it have been were he modded later on to look like Gil with wings from Street Fighter 3?

[@abbywinters5470]

The bosses of this game are f***ing awesome!!!!

[@reyzcoseiun]

Man, Im seeing NvC and PXZ2 references all over again

[@aodhablackheart]

"You cannot stop me with paramecium alone." You're goddamn right.

[@ZekeRodriguezshow]

Some of the best power ups in gaming history

[@JackHanma]

One of my favorite childhood game. I was a fan of the 3rd round boss because he was a mix between Taurus no Aldebaran and Raoh. The amiga version had some great ost...Too bad it had only 4 stages.

[@noaht2005]

thank you very mach. now peace is retvrning to this town again

[@esn1988]

Flying Contra lol

[@gunma747j]

in china,p everyone thinks it is contra😂😂😂

[@Emulous79]

1:06 That punk guy sounds like Mr. T, lol

[@AndrewNewZealand]

"finish da fewl today!!!"

[@advanceddarkness3]

I dumped so many quarters in this game at my local arcade when it released.

[@junkyardcrow1748]

These late-80's acid-trip arcade games. Invariably I love the grainy way they look, and absolutely hate the way they sound.

[@sheenydonut]

When I was 7 or 8, I got my parents to buy this for me while we were at a flea market lol. It took me forever to find it again just now because I forgot the name and my memory mistook it for an snes game. Switched to looking for Sega games and bingo, there it is.

[@RicardoDirani]

2:03 gotta love that in the middle of all that mayhem there is a shop with a young blonde girl selling military stuff

[@wj1358]

Fun fact shop keeper from this game will make an appearance at upcoming Project X Zone 2

[@djmars1983]

oh cool

[@robinhood7293]

And she ended up being a moneygrabber golddigger who screws anyone for the right price.

[@xMasterSparku]

wj1358 was also in NxC

[@Martian74]

I loved this game, I could finish it on one credit with a spare life left over. The homing lasers were OP so you could finish the end boss really quickly but you had to save up your zenny.

[@DeadlyVenomKing]

Last Night I Borrowed 10,000,000 Zennies From Mr. Satan

[@thatoks6498]

This game was the greatest apace game ever back then on the genesis

[@stseantmusic]

This is my favorite game on the Genesis

[@willfomes406]

I've played this game and completed (i took a lot of damage but i was playing it throught the Capcom Classics Collection disc for the PS2 meaning that if i died i could just keep pressing the start button because back in the 80s if you had enough loose change then the game basically gave unlimited continues like the 1988 Japanese Famicom release of Super Mario Bros 2) but i was so excited when i got to see the ending. This Game is Hella immersive.

[@ekkagames824]

Unlimited life if 2 players, else it was nearly impossible

[@ajvictimizer2023]

The last boss was super pissed when his little minions couldn't do there job

[@VJFranzK]

This is the strict way to play it, never buy satelites and save up for the laser. ; - ) It's more fun to have a few different things. Notice levels not in the Genesis game.

[@Martian74]

Homing laser is great at the end.

[@trmblingblustar]

"We play for there will be no evil". hahahaaha

[@grproteus]

37:00 Ahh peace is retunring to the world. Tommy Wiseau is very happy now.

[@VahanNisanian]

So both Capcom and "Dragon Ball" use Zenny as the currency.

[@ValidusFidelis]

+Vahan Nisanian Zenny, or"Zeni" is the Japanese word for coin. It's not some copy-written fictional currency.

[@dougggtheoof]

+ValidusFidelis Oh, Like Squirltle's Japanese name, Zenigame.

[@ValidusFidelis]

Douglas Gordon Slightly different in that case, the combination of "zeni" and "game" means "baby turtle" in Japanese. If you want to learn more about romanized Japanese word, Tangorin is a great source.

[@MrERLoner]

Black Tiger was the first with zenny as currency if memory serves.. they show up as points bonus items in strider 2 as well.

[@alfaluvr83]

Anyone else feel bad for that dragon at the end of level 2? It's laying there with it's stomach ripped open and the hero just flies right up and blows the shit out of it. i mean, what did that to that dragon?!

[@ednilsonmeneses69]

Great job

[@netgearholsten4078]

This Game is available in the Super Retro Cade Game Station. Super cool game.

[@WoodBlock707]

Played this game everyday when I was a kid.

[@rodrigof.r.desouza3587]

I've been revisiting some good old Arcade classics I've used to play in my teens, and this was one of the games that I remembered but forgot the name. Thanks so much for this video.

[@susanfit47]

An arcade cabinet of the game can be seen in the 1992 film 'Juice' starring Omar Epps and the late Tupac Shakur.

[@DoomedEtiquette]

Amazing Playthrough, you make it look all to easy, when in fact this game isn't that easy. You have to have the right weapons and upgrades. If you don't FW will hand you your ass.. FW also has a amazing soundtrack, another capcom banger!

[@BentoBoxBobbyTV]

Flying Contra and R Type. Really good.

[@werehedgehog99]

I remember how this game looked standing out to me but I always struggled to tell what alot of the characters are supposed to be, in the snow level are they chimp people?

(c) Capcom 1988 Reprogrammed Game (c) Sega 1989

[@nkhazov]

They have this game at the arcade place called starcade in rosedale mall (Roseville Minnesota) it’s a pretty new arcade I’ve played it on the capcom arcade stadium both on my Xbox series x and my Nintendo switch lite and bested it like 3x for practice. the soundtrack on the clouds or snow is pretty awesome I’ve yet to play this game personally in the arcade at Roseville I need the challenge on my end. Best regards Nikita.K

[@DanielsGamingZone]

Is this the mame version? The dust dragon has a tale attack from what i remember but there isn't one in this video.

[@arthursnyder6424]

He might've killed the Dust Dragon pretty quickly because when I fought that boss I have seen the tail attack a couple times

[@specialformula14]

Holy craaaap tough game. Never made it past 2nd level when I was a kid lol

[@vherostar]

Same here, was tough as nails

[@Theshark15z]

Would anyone believe that this game has a larger memory than Final Fight???

[@KenMasters.]

Forgotten Worlds also has better logic than Final Fight. In this game, there are shops between each level. In Final Fight, the only shops they have in Metro City are garbage bins.

[@chrisrj9871]

It's crazy how the third boss looks like a final boss.

[@kennethrhea5910]

Been trying to find this game forever Might be late to the party but played this when I was probably like 8 or 9. Remember thinking it was super creepy and hard so I'd always get a buddy to play with me. Never could make it past the third boss. Seen steam has it for like 1$ think I'm going to pick it up and beat it once and for all.

[@ZekeThePlumber86]

This game is really hard, but really fun!

[@yeraysantanaaday6827]

I finished this excelent machine once, one of the best shoot them up

[@yeraysantanaaday6827]

I must be very good in those times playing videogames because now i feel imposible to get trough with out tricks..

[@BentoBoxBobbyTV]

The sound team from Contra must be the same. It is upcycled sound effect of the spread gun

[@Bangcat]

Wonder if GILL from Street Fighter is a call back to the red and blue giant bosses that would fight together.

[@Hmongboi228]

So basically it's an airplane shooter game minus the airplane... -_- Somebody will respond with; "Uhhh yeah... Duhhhh.."

[@ryuhoshi9381]

That dragon like boss of the stage 2 is scared

[@WauwautosaTufGuy]

I remember I use to think this game was soooo hard as a kid(5-6 years old) and I would play it with 2 controllers cuz if you would die and you were next to the other person you could hit start start and you could respawn. Now watching this today doesn't seem that tough

[@simonebernacchia5724]

@33:27 continuity with side arms - those are same levels of stage 1

[@AndrewNewZealand]

Not a bad game, but there should be a button to make turn and face the other way without having to a half-circle on the dial. Not sure about the English translation of the talk between the heroes. I had a go at translating the Japanese of the first version (Lost Worlds) and I'm not sure It's quite the same.

[@Samsgarden]

It’s obvious that this could never be played adequately without the 8 way rotating joystick

[@NooDLES411911]

I'm pretty sure I never got past that snake boss in the Egypt level. Shit was hard as a kid man...
