Beating EVERY N64 Game - Jinsei Game 64 (91/394)

[@snoochpounder]

Thab is the kinda dude you could chill with and wouldn’t need to worry about your fries when leaving the room

[@Thabeast721]

If I'm hungry, I'm eatin your fries

[@thexbigxgreen]

@@Thabeast721 Thabby, why did you eat my fries? I bought them, and they were mine...

[@williamRE]

Or your girlfriend

[@artichokeechobee]

THAB I'm not sure this was your intent, but I feel like you are chronicling videogame history here. I love it, so glad you decided to do this.

[@ItsBlunty]

We'll all be following this for at least a few more years, and it's pretty awesome to think that! You're almost 1/4 of the way through them! Keep it up!

[@Quick-Flash]

Ahh Blunty's an n64 fan as well.

[@kjen08]

He's actually finished over 150 games but the videos are taking awhile..

[@MatthewBakke]

And now here we are a year later!

[@ImperatorZed]

"I put in my real birthdate" Puts 1969 04 20

[@Thabeast721]

Yes

[@aikokazuyuki2202]

i believed this for several seconds and was like WHAT THIS GUY IS IN HIS 50s??

[@nm499x]

He’s beating every N64 game. And he means all of them.

[@lasskinn474]

Beating on every n64 would be harder

[@ethanwright752]

THIS IS THE JOURNEY TO BEATING EVERY N64 GAME

[@seralele]

Oooh i hope there's a twist!

[@dasdiesel3000]

Surely he can't mean... ALL of them? Could he??

[@Nigel222]

But which ones is he not playing?

[@seralele]

I'm so glad I went through a mario maker watching phase right before you started this series cause I love watching you beat every n64 game and I mean ALL of them

[@ryansgot]

I think instead of "Two Cake," it's supposed to be "2K." It also calls that thing "The thing from planet 2K." I'm not sure what that means.

[@BurgerBroeders]

Fun fact: at 2:40 when thab says “happen during play” in the voice-over, it actually looks like he is saying that in stream as well!

[@ethanwright752]

I noticed it too

[@dnicej1293]

Freaky

[@GRNKRBY]

Very fun.

[@ADoseofBuckley]

That's pretty good, you're a baby and you start with $10 and a car? I guess people really DID have it easier in the late 60s.

[@debatman]

Can't get enough of this series.

[@user-lq5ev8hg9q]

finally, a video game reflects the real life experience of butt aliens

[@boulevardia6963]

“I put in my real birthday…”4/20/1969”. #badboy

[@JakoEx87]

When you see the 万 kanji after a number you need to multiply that number by 10 000. It's read as "man" and just means 10 000. E.g. 1000万円 = 10 000 000 yen Since one dollar is roughly 150 yen you need quite high numbers when shopping in Japan. Keep up the good job on making the videos!

[@zemeio1184]

There are a few Japanese errors at the start of this video, I'll list the ones I can find here. Not that they really matter, but just in case someone wants to know. 2:52 -> The menus are "Roulette", "Status", "Map", "Save" (not card) and "Help" (not save). I imagine at that point the player did not have any cards, so no cards option? 3:00 -> The place it points for your main activity is actually your zodiac sign (aquarius in this case). I imagine the interface changes later when you have a job? Bonus: 5:33 -> your choices are what classroom you go to (1-1 or 1-2). No idea how that affects anything.

[@SavageGreywolf]

when you fall off the roof but you're saved by a flying butt

[@coolnerdyates29]

This seems like a fun game to play with others with all the craziness that happens. Kinda hope for a translation patch someday.

[@altrogeruvah]

Man, I have so many great memories of this game... My wife's from Japan and when we spent some months in her hometown before our wedding day, we were playing this game pretty much every night before bed. We even played 4 player mode with her mother and late grandmother once, it was a lot of fun!

[@hicoskater8296]

Came for the crazy Japanese game, stayed for the Franz Kafka reference.

[@inthefade]

Yeah haha! As soon as he turned into a worm I thought the same thing, and I was very satisfied when he referenced it.

[@kalebrhea5822]

Wow! This game is a true hidden gem! I cannot believe how wild the dev team’s imagination was

[@DM-kv9kj]

When that number came up at the end, I was convinced "OMG finally, that was definitely something great like Goldeneye or Zelda or...oh..." 😂

[@emersonshaw66]

If you like spoilers (and all of us watching these videos are seeing games completed without playing them) he lists his progress in the spreadsheet in the description.

[@Toxodos]

haven't you noticed the list is in alphabetical order?

[@arturocevallossoto5203]

@@emersonshaw66 Jeez. He's so far ahead compared to the uploads.

[@DM-kv9kj]

@@emersonshaw66 I might have a look sometime, but for now I'll keep up the fun of finding out each video. And I played all the good N64 games in the 90s/00s as a kid, so I don't really want to play any of these crummy ones. I enjoy having a look at them via these playthrough/reviews though.

[@emersonshaw66]

It must take a long time to edit those videos. And I always thought it would be fun to do something like this but would never have the time. Hope yall are enjoying them as much as I do. The n64 was my favorite growing up. I remember playing the system at a best buy and they had this crazy TV set up with like 10 tvs where everyone could see what was being played.

[@nickschumacher5147]

Watching these games is one thing, but the editing and commentary makes this series the best gaming series on KZbin!

[@musicequalsgood]

This was great, it's so cool seeing all the little quirky games! You have me hooked on this series 😁

[@jarrettstone8210]

I don't leave until I hear, "what is that?"

[@taldesigns]

Still loving this series. The VO details just keep getting better. Great stuff.

[@jessebh1990]

I couldn’t play these, it makes me happy to see you are! Excited to see future entries!

[@fleshbhones]

This game honestly looks sick, so many hidden gems

[@neilboyle6244]

FYI, the name for the butt aliens is ツーケー (Tsuukee) which is ケツ (ketsu) backwards. Ketsu is just a crude way of saying butt.

[@ultimate15clb]

these bizarre games are my favorite of the bunch. I love when you include video from your stream when you just appear perplexed or are laughing at the absurdity of it all!!!!

[@ryannachtrab]

Yessss, so glad these are back regularly!

[@bes03c]

This game gave us all the weird Japanese goodness we could have hoped for.

[@inthefade]

Mostly wholesome yet bizarre in a way only the Japanese could get away with.

[@Hibs0707]

This has been the most awesome series of video's. I have been looking forward to each one coming out!

[@dillonbice]

Love these videos! Always look forward to watching them!

[@75190255508]

Haha, your opponent didn't take 15,000 yen from you, they took 150,000,000 yen from you.

[@russianmansmwc]

I can recommend watching the original VOD, as there are more weird happenings in this game. It gave me a pretty good laugh, especially when the butt alien came for the first time. Easily one of the weirdest (and funniest) games played for this challenge.

[@Thabeast721]

Yeah it’s a wild one for sure

[@RoninCatholic]

Since the translation messed up, I'll make up my own story for the back alley drug sales cutscene: HIPPIE: "I'm trippin' balls, man! BAD TRIP!" YOU (DOCTOR): "Here, take these Sober Pills and take a nap. Go to work tomorrow and stop taking drugs you aren't prescribed by a professional." HIPPIE: "Thanks my dude, here's your money!"

[@hellsdemongaming]

I never knew they made a game of life for 64, I'm learning quite a bit from this series.

[@andyq524]

"Take that Ben Stein." 🤣🤣🤣 Clever!

[@willythewyno]

I hadn't thought about Ben Stein in over a decade. What a reference...

[@ericsipe2771]

John Conway and Metamorphosis references in my N64 videos? What a time to be alive.

[@DonkThikkness]

Learned recently blood type in Japanese culture tells a lot about someone’s personality. Something I remember seeing in a lot of games throughout the decades. I’m old. 😅

[@jimmya]

Yeah, I'd say it's the Japanese version of star signs. I'm sure the majority don't believe in it, but just think of it as fun.

[@Dac_vak]

“Take that, Ben Stein!” What a deep cut reference lol

[@bitflipper8577]

1:39 "I put in my real birth date" 🤣

[@levijones1246]

I friggin love this series

[@Jeff_arrieta]

The birthday had me dead 😂

[@NuggzOfYouTube]

I love this series man keep it up glad i found this channel

[@ChairmanMeow1]

I thought this episode would be boring but it was hilarious

[@TheZackofSpades]

This was so much more entertaining than I expected…oh no not doctor butt!!😂

[@leoscyzor]

This series is gold

[@divVerent]

9:41 looks suspiciously close to an Earthbound fight with the effects and all.

[@Choink2558]

Blood types are a big thing in japan so that's why it's in the game

[@Nucleosynthese]

Nice, a new n64 video. I love these!

[@BryanatGameStop]

Great way to start the day before selling Mario Rabbids to happy customers and it Gotham Knights to disappointed ones.

[@SocialCreditScore]

I'm really enjoying these

[@elreaved]

The characters 万円 mean 10,000 yen. That means there's a lot more money at play here than the arabic numerals alone would indicate, eg. 1500万円 is 1500*10000 yen!

[@glassware1975]

Best video yet. The world needs more of these aliens

[@3o7Mian]

This is what I look forward to on Fridays

[@ruhenot6682]

All the japanese exclusive stuff back to back, oh well. Definietly enjoyed this vid!

[@FearTheDeep]

This game is basically an upgraded "LIFE" game. Even the spinner looks like LIFE from the boardgame.

[@cubaisdeath]

interesting looking game, great video as always. also that next game, me and my friends used to play that all the time in highschool because one of them had the imported copy. that game is fucking wild man lmao

[@FernandoBaruni]

You are beating every N64 game, and you mean all of them. The twist is the next game you play is randomly selected so you have no clue what's coming next.

[@starpetalarts6668]

Its pretty accurate to what life is like living in Japan.

[@DarkKen87]

This game looks incredible. Wish I'd had it in my youth

[@tinflowers]

I can't believe your beating every N64 game. holy moly.

[@breathstealer5486]

Woooooh finally caught up on this series Not gonna lie the last 2 were a slog getting through

This poor guy! Believe or not! Thab is 30!!! He's 30 and never touched a woman!!

[@SoulofGrimm]

Occult- supernatural, mystical, or magical beliefs, practices, or phenomena. "a secret society to study alchemy and the occult" Also Jinsei means life.

[@mikkelisaksenrobinson]

Hey I just love this series. What do you plan to do after its done? All GameCube games?

[@IntheBay85]

I wait for these videos like a kid waiting to open his N64 at Xmas...

[@tenken103]

I think this may have been answered on another video, but I can't find it. Which 3 games have been left off the list?

[@Thabeast721]

Two versions of Mario 64 and a Japanese visual novel I’m waiting on the translation for

[@shaneg9081]

Japanese developer turns a classic board game into a video game in the mid 90s? Yeah, we all should have expected this.

[@msgtadamus]

GameFAQ writers are strange and mythical creatures. Right up there with wiki authors who take it seriously. Bless them

[@dasdiesel3000]

It's so interesting to me how much importance is placed on blood type in Japan, so far into modernity. It's often used in character bios as an important descriptor, and this game allowing you to "create a character" with blood type for a game is a wild instance of it being a big factor in "personality archetypes" around the turn of the millennium still. Does anyone know if it's gotten less like that in the more recent past? I'm very tired I just realized I probably typed alot to say very little but I'm not editing lol, sorry.

[@arturocevallossoto5203]

Not only Japan, I feel. I have encountered people who give it some importance. Always in the "health" sense for finding a partner. You will find a bunch of "diet books" and "alternative medicine" books that place a lot of importance in blood type. Like how A+ should eat more milk and meat than O-types. Or how O-types can't handle alcohol. It's 90% NOT based in reality but these are things people believe in.

[@Pr1est0fDoom]

It's like the horoscope for blood types.

[@chompythebeast]

That Ben Stein reference, lol I should get some of those beach balls

[@inthefade]

The moment where you turned into a worm... This game really is Kafkaesque but with bright colors.

[@BobbyMiller64]

One of my favorite videos yet! :) The event spaces were absolutely hilarious. Oh, and the winner of life is whoever has the most money. Remember that, kids.

[@HalTuberman]

Wow. Those cut scenes were off the chain!

[@RRrico0625]

This game was incredibly fun when I played with friends in childhood.

[@nathanastle9322]

I LOVE your writing

[@stardf29]

For the record, it seems that Japanese culture tends to consider red as a "positive" color and blue as a "negative" color (the opposite of Western culture). This is why, for example, in recent Pokemon games, when checking which stats are boosted or hindered by your nature, the boosted stat is in red and the hindered stat is in blue.

[@CassidyDylyn]

my guy with that ridiculously high output.

[@TreasureHunterLocke]

I can't believe I just now realized we went to school together. I knew you looked familiar

[@DoobieKeebler]

So, this looks like a Japanese version of the game "Life". I'm sure it's a standalone, unique game, but it does give me "Life: on Japan" vibes.

[@BigHit9922]

love this series

[@justavian]

Looking forward to seeing another non-japanese game at some point! Haha - this was still fun to watch even though (like all of the japenese games) i've never heard of it.

[@pengwin_]

the next non japanese game will be a basketball game

[@Linkums]

He was born for greatness with that real birth date.

[@Linkums]

Oh no, you messed up the "use cards" and "save" menu order. Reupload! :P

[@calebfielding6352]

Someone needs to make a game where going to university means you end up with a 100k in debt and can still only get jobs that only require a high school diploma

[@Pimfii]

That would be the American only version I guess.

[@Pr1est0fDoom]

Haha, don't be silly, that would be unrealistic. No way that could happen IRL, right? 💀

[@generalgk]

@@Pimfii In no way is that exclusive to America

[@dillonbice]

It’s to bad that this didn’t come out in English bc this one looks fun!

[@franklinbrown7389]

This game looks fun. I wish it came out here.

[@dakzillablaze]

Eventually you're gonna roll MK mythologies... That's gonna be an event...

[@lexcastillo5575]

For japanese, Blood type is kida the horoscope. They match your love compatibiliy with it

[@joestanosheck1453]

Damn dude full reset. That's brutal.
