BEETLEJUICE on the Gameboy is HORRENDOUS - The Lonely Goomba

[@cameravice1825]

To be fair. Beetlejuice sending up a shitty game rather than himself feels very on point for the character

[@DataDrain02]

3:04 Actually... that's not a dinosaur. That's Lydia's mom's sculpture from the movie. Kinda odd it's here, though.... Was that sculpture even in the cartoon? Oh and. The final level music.... I'm pretty sure it's a remix of "Dayo". Fitting, because you'll "wan go home" after playing that mess.

[@TheLonelyGoomba]

Yeah I figured it was some reference. Makes sense

[@nessdbest8708]

@@TheLonelyGoomba Can you play Garfield Lathyrism next? you used the music for it towards the end.

[@niekasnieko3177]

Just wanna say that you were a huge part of my childhood lonely goomba. I recently rediscovered your channel again after so many years. I was in, what, 6th grade when I started to watch you and now I'm finishing college already. Time flies, but your videos now bring just as much enjoyment as they did back then. So thank you!

[@_.the.gremlin._]

I was also a huge childhood fan and i have no clue how anyone let me watch your earlier video. I remember always watching your Wario Land 4 video and saying to myself "What's jizz? What's a condom?"

[@RottenAvocado3]

I’m not sure that that’s good but I can’t say anything because me too

​@@_.the.gremlin._I remember constantly wondering what a dildo was after his Drawn to Life video; I discovered him when I was 9 and I'm 18 now lmao

[@DC_Prox]

Believe it or not, "Fat Baby Monster" is actually from an episode of the cartoon, except in the cartoon he was called "Great Big Fat Baby". And, no, I'm not joking, the resolution of the episode's A-plot involved Lydia yelling "Great Big Fat Baby!" to summon him.

[@supernovel7514]

This is the kind of game you get randomly as a kid, you can't past a certian point then forget about it forever.

[@arekrekas213]

4:38 No, Goomba. you're just using your telekinesis, just like every other goomba has.

[@gakk8658]

You know a game is brutal with Lonely Goomba says it's hard. I love that you beat all of them no matter what. Unreasonable difficulty was something you ran into back in the day and seeing it slapped back is satisfying.

[@tveye363]

I'm always impressed with how you genuinely complete these games. I never played Beetlejuice as a kid, but from first impressions it reminds me of every other Western-developed Gameboy game. Something like a Jurassic Park or James Bond. The game you'd rent at the video store along with the respective film and after watching the movie as a family, you'd play the game only to realize how agonizingly difficult it is. No saves, no continues, no hope. The perpetual "first level" games where you'd be lucky to even see level 2.

[@MrMartellSincere]

Just a small contribution to say thank you for the hilarious and relatable themes of loneliness and video games in your videos. As someone living alone with a disability, your content really resonates with me and brings a lot of comfort. Great work to you and the entire Lonely Goomba team - keep it up!

[@TheLonelyGoomba]

Thank you very much!

[@MrMartellSincere]

@@TheLonelyGoomba you're welcome 🤗😁

[@BayeBoy-wl1br]

4:40 I never seen goomba talk like that before😂

[@jacks.cosplay]

In theory every level playing different would be fun, but oh boy the execution here is leaves alot to be desired for sure.

[@TheLonelyGoomba]

tbh it ain't too bad till the minecart onwards. It becomes trial and error. If the game had continues it would be significantly better. So using save states might be enjoyable but I try to beat the games as intended for reviews/vids.

[@mrlaz9011]

the minecart and snake levels definitely suffer from "developer difficulty" syndrome. Devs getting too good at their own game leads to crap like this.

[@ChikinPluker]

Love seeing the haloween background in use. Spooky adthetics are my favorite, which is why i love october.

[@DPedroBoh]

That flicker at 3:35 probably looked a lot different on a gameboy screen, i think it was supposed to look like a different shade of green than normally visible on the screen. The flicker may not even be visible.

[@TuxedoTakodachi]

I think the flashing lights were implemented with the ghosting of the original game boy screen in mind, giving it the illusion of more than 4 colors.

Also it’s pretty clear that if not for Rare’s touches, this would just be another stain on LJN’s already shit soaked shirt.

[@pokemontrainerspencer6090]

I remember watching your channel in my teenage years.

[@WarioSaysSo]

8:55 - Yes, my old friend Lonely Gomba, spot on. It is indeed a Rareware game when it features a mine-cart level, and just like in Donkey Kong Country, your character dies when landing on the track (?). That has since DAY 1 when the game came out back in 1994 bothered me. Why you die, and can't continue on if you slightly hit something, and your character just dies when touchin the tracks, like there is no way anyone can walk on these tracks, like they are made of lava or consentrated acid....stupid Rare logic. But yeah, serious Rare was awesome ;-). Some games could be challanging yes and others could be a great entertainment experience.

[@RakashiPup]

Lonely on Halloween? But there's a dry bones right there to talk to.

I've just spent the last month or 2 watching all your videos, on the side. And I'm close to being done, but when I saw this video, I knew I had to watch it straight away. Thankyou for still uploading you have inspired me to get shitty handheld games.

I don't know if I should feel happy for new Goomba content or bad because that game feels like the actual purgatory from Beetlejuice! Props for the tenacity haha

[@HathiFan]

My dear Goomba. I played this game. I know what you went through. And I can't believe you actually beat it. I mean, I beat it - with save states on an emulator. And still it drove me insane. The first 3 levels each got better (actually, I enjoyed Level 2 a lot, once I got the hang of it). But Level 4... Like you said - why even have a live bar at this point?! And then Level 5?!? That is the most difficult thing in Game Boy History, I am certain. Especially with no continues! You only get some tries - and then you have to start the WHOLE GAME again, before you get another try!!!!!! Beetlejuice is my favourite movie (it actually is) and then I played this game... LJN man, I tell you. Goomba - Chapeau for actually getting through this game. I could have never done that. This is an achievement!

[@danielstokes2127]

Rare also made other LJN games like Roger Rabbit.

[@RazorBean]

4:05 its ok Lonely Goomba, I'm gonna die alone too

[@AkumaKristian]

I know you mentioned Battletoads offhand but... between the constantly shifting gameplay and one hit kills, it really is pretty similar. (The last level even looks like the snake level from Battletoads) Fun Fact: Rare developed a bunch of LJN's games during the NES days. They're behind Nightmare on Elm Street and Who Framed Roger Rabbit too.

[@TheLonelyGoomba]

Oh it absolutely did remind me of Battletoads. The variety mixed in with the difficulty towards the end was very similar.

But anyway: Did you actually enjoy this Bettlejuice game? I could tell in the end or were you just exhausted?

[@katt-the-pig]

3:36 KZbin has a tendancy to load videos at 30fps for me, and I tend to not notice until the video points out something flashing that can only be seen at 60fps, such as this.

Dear god, the game is pure Trial and Error, no checkpoints, no continues, no shit, that's a recipe for a nightmare of a game

I heard if you were to utter "Bloody Mary" three times in front of a mirror, you'll summon a tasty tomato juice vodka cocktail with a stalk of celery poking out of it. It'll totally not summon the ghost of a Victorian era woman who will spill your blood after the third "Bloody Mary".
