I remember there was this Kiosk for N64 games at Target. It had no controller, just some board with flat button stickers for each game to play the trailer. I pressed the one for Bomberman Hero and it was some narrator freaking out yelling "It's Bomberman Hero and he can Jump Now!" That spoke to me since I was wondering why I could not jump in Bomberman 64

He couldn't jump because he can't do anything that isn't related to blowing shit up or murdering everything that isn't him. Hell in Bomberman 64 you can blow up what I assume are hotels full of people. Seriously look up the second video on the thestrawhatno's LP of it, it's shockingly morbid.

It seemed like a strange, alien world, with strange, geometrical robotic creatures, and all I had was a cute little dude to get me through them all. Music aside, I do have to give the game credit for having a good visual design.

NICE! on the topic on Bomberman Hero, the Secret I only knew was the secret final boss in the end, I never knew about the other secret this game have specially the where you have rapidly press start so many time for that secret to show, and yeah I don't blame you for using a "Game Shark" that just asking for so much out of a player and I think I remember that when you collect a certain amount of diamonds your health increase, I don't know if that happen to you in your playthrough

19:35 Another Start-button secret? I remember that Bomberman 64 used that same trick to encourage Japanese players to buy the Joycard 64 Turbo controller (conveniently also made by Bomberman's developers). You could unlock extra multiplayer stages by rapidly pressing start at the main menu. That way, you wouldn't have to kill your fingers mashing, and Hudson makes another sale! Looks like they wanted to further reward buyers in this game too.

I would praise this game quite a bit more than you did, Nitro. The sound effects are top-notch and unique, and the environments have great variety. The levels are pretty short but there are a LOT of them (way more than other 3D platformers that have levels). This makes the game very different from the open-area collectathons that dominated the world of 3D platformers the moment 3D became viable. In that sense, this game has a lot in common with 2D platformers -- it's less about exploration and more about linear platforming skill. And yet it uses the 3rd dimension just enough to provide some exploration and hidden thing, and the third axis works great for interesting visuals and for meaningful enemy placement. In this way, it's much like Super Mario 3D World, but a few generations earlier. Because of the fixed camera and the weird bunch of stages, the game just feels eerie to me. You often end up inside weird techno buildings or jumping around strange indoor duct-systems suspended over an abyss. It makes you wonder who built these, and who uses them? I mean really, it's completely unique. I don't know a game that built such a mysterious vibe just because of its platform-driven level design. And these strange aesthetics in every level integrate cleverly into the gameplay so often. This stage is all about its elevator system, this stage is all about moving into the z-axis, this stage is about teleporters, etc. And don't forget the mirror stage -- that one is brilliant. As for 100%ing the game -- I think it was done terrifically. The levels really are short, so if you just want to beat the game, it's a pretty simple and fun experience that a kid could probably pull off. But if you want to up the difficulty, you try to collect everything in every level. And this would be annoying in so many other games, but again, the levels here are short and linear. So there's really not much to it; it's not super difficult, nor is it a tedious game of hide-and-seek. For an experienced gamer, it's a perfectly suitable challenge, and it frankly redeems the game. Without this design, it wouldn't hold my attention long enough. I would just beat and shove it under the rug. But man, no matter what you think of the gameplay, the sound effect for picking up crystals -- mmm! Man, it's just so glassy and crunchy. It's delicious. This game's sound design is just like no other. So I've got to give this game the ultimate praise: It's not the greatest game ever. It's not the masterpiece that aspiring designers should bow down to. But it's exactly what a video game should be: It's excellent fun, it's imaginative, it has an appropriate challenge for everyone, and it uses the audio-visual and player-controlled nature of the medium to the fullest. And it does it all on its own terms. Again, it might not be on the Mt. Rushmore of gaming, but it's good AND unique; if you want to play a game like Bomberman Hero, you pretty much have only one option -- play Bomberman Hero.

Bomberman Hero was supposed to be a Bonk game and they changed it for marketing reasons. This explains why the game is so different and random in relationship to the other games. And explain all the weird "robot attachments" too. It's a quirky and clunky game but I still love it. Great video as always.

What I think is REALLY weird is that Bomberman Jetters is based on a Bomberman anime of the same name that NEVER got dubbed (Makes me wonder if they localized the game to try and gauge interest in bringing the anime outside of Japan but scrapped it for reasons)

I don't know if it's the nostalgia speaking, but I used to love this game as a kid in the 90s. And then the game was re-released for the Virtual Console on Wii when I was around 18 or so, and I managed to complete it, and the game didn't seemed to age poorly to me. There was only one stage where I really struggled to get the maximum score. This video brought some nice memories, thanks dude

There are a lot more changes in the Japanese version of Bomberman Hero. For starters, power-ups are much more plentiful in on-foot levels, more than you need to get a perfect score. In particular, the game was much more generous with health pickups. More importantly, you know how when you collect 200 gems you get a health upgrade? In the Japanese version, that was permanent to your file, hence why a lot of late game stages are so much more unforgiving - they expected you to play them with more than just four hit points.

From the great music and levels to the unique gameplay I really enjoyed playing this game. I also agree to most of the points of this review (minus the flying and aqua stages since I kinda liked those stages) but the rest of them I either understood or agreed with. Awesome work dude.

Man I love your videos, they're so natural and genuine, the bits of comedy you add aren't forced at all, and I feel like you really know what you're talking about, and you're extremely fair in your judgement. Bomberman Hero is my least favorite of the three N64 Bomberman games. I know you focus on platformers a lot, but I'd really love to see you tackle the other two games, those are some of my favorites, despite their clunkiness at times.
