Classic Game Room - LITTLE SAMSON review for NES

[@guestc142]

And this is the last "gaming" video by CGR. After this, he started reviewing comics and pens.

[@Szczauqa]

He deliberately killed this channel.

[@rabiroden]

I could've got this game at the flea market for like $2 like 15 years ago. At the time I hadn't heard of it and didn't know how rare (and how good) it is. Got home and looked online and saw it selling for like a staggering $40 (lol). Went back the next week and it was gone. One of my biggest gaming regrets. :(

vectorman 2 was the last one on youtube

[@UberMan5000]

One of the reasons I like the NES is it's a console for the people. A lot of its best games are dirt-cheap, and there's a lot of hidden gems for under a tenner. Games like this fly in the face of this notion: it costs as much as a mortgage payment, and it's really just another lovely platformer on a system renowned for its lovely platformers. It makes the NES look like an elite console for hardcore collectors. NES enthusiasts shouldn't be deprived of games like this because of a fabricated reputation.

[@segagenesis1989]

I like this comment alot. A true gamer if i ever did see one!

[@proskateboy]

A. No this is definitely a stand out platformer in the library, with a level of polish and variety in gameplay not seen on the NES, like at all. B. tHeRe'S tHeSe tHiNgS CaLlEd rEpRoDuCtIoN cArtDrIdGeS

[@EricHostile]

So THIS is why it costs an arm and a leg. Mark reviewed it in the future and it created a time paradox which caused it to be a low production run which caused it to be expensive now. If I bring Jar-Jar's head to the intergalactic space arcade would you trade? That or all the space ninjas bought them..

[@dukejaywalker5858]

Why has this never come out on the Virtual Console? Or the NES Classic Edition?

[@Randomark3087]

Good question, but that's why you hack it.

[@boseyjones]

Duke Jaywalker licensing issues?

[@ThetaReactor]

I wouldn't think licensing is the issue. Taito has no problem pimping out Bubble Bobble and Legend of Kage everywhere.

[@KuraIthys]

They're pretty arbitrary with it... I get some of the licences are super-convoluted, but on the other hand, there's things that should be straightforward to license, but are still nowhere to be seen... I have no idea how they decide what gets sold and what doesn't.

[@SlipKnoTfreak1456]

they probably think it's not "popular enough" because they don't look into how much people love the game

[@ThetaReactor]

The developer, Takeru, was staffed by Capcom alumni (including Akira Kitamura, the creator of Mega Man), and it shows. They released another Famicom game called Cocoron that is not quite as good, but still worth checking out.

[@SuaveSpyMojo]

This my friends, was the end. All good things come to an end.

[@terencehill2320]

It wasnt the end, there was atleast one more, you want to be dramatic, please get it right

[@SuaveSpyMojo]

@@terencehill2320 ok?

[@Mystemo]

One of my favorite NES games. Thank God I got it back before NES game prices exploded. By the way, Gamm (the rock monster) can walk on spikes, I'm impressed you managed to get trough some of those spike heavy areas without using him.

[@superduty2023]

Mystemo what year and how much did you get it?

[@Mystemo]

@@superduty2023 Not sure what year exactly, around 07-08 I think. I paid about $14 for it, though what I have is the way less expensive European version.

[@renatoigmed]

So sad this was the last review 😢

[@DehnusNorder]

YEah miss too, this was something I'd love coming home to from work. Oh well. Time moves on, and not a "Amazon Prime" person :P.

[@NoxiousLynx]

vectorman 2 was the last review on youtube but he reviewed more games on amazon prime, defender on September 12, 2018 was his last.

[@SomeOrangeCat]

Cases like this, where the carts are insanely priced, is why I'm so thankful that emulation is a thing.

[@culturax2285]

Just yesterday I finished *Bucky O' Hare* which is a highly recommended game on the Nes, and now this one is on the list!

[@mikena7014]

For the NES, the graphics are outstanding!

[@Prauwlet213]

8:04. a legend ended.

Best way to play it!

[@ElasticSparrow]

[@TheGameGrinder]

I have a reproduction cart of this and that's just fine by me. Fantastic game for sure!

[@Cellfix]

The Game Grinder same here!

[@TheGameGrinder]

Don't get me wrong, I'd much rather have the real thing, but I'll never be able to afford it(would never spend that much on a game anyways) so I go with the next best thing.

[@bytex666]

This is great! I've never seen an actual review of THE GAME, just all the hoolabaloo around how expensive and rare it is to collect. You do mankind a great service, Mark.

[@somethingoriginal1707]

Its nice to see that you still keep in touch with Derrick

[@pyramidgod4537]

Something Original It's not the same one.

[@SamusGunship]

Mark, you can walk on the spikes if you are Gamm (the rock golem). It would have made your playthrough way easier. Anyway, you are so lucky now to have a copy of that.

[@lilguava70]

[@Fools_Requiem]

20 bucks is about the price for a repro. Should be a little cheaper used, though. No telling how long repros will last since they don't go through QC.

[@SIMIFU]

Its expensive because HOLY COW, DO YOU SEE THAT SPRITE ROTATION IN THE MENU?!

[@GameHammerCG]

This does look pretty good. Shame it's so ridiculously costly.

[@marshy9948]

Would have to be a repro right? A good looking repro for that price. But your average NES game doesn’t sell for $20, and it’s too high to be one of those deals where the seller didn’t know the treasure they had. I was lucky enough to get my copy in the 90s when KayBee was shutting down. Bought a handful of games pretty cheap (unfortunately didn’t include Flintstones). I just wish I was smart enough to keep the boxes back then!

[@CaptainRufus]

Cmon Taito! Virtual Console release! Or Steam! PSN! DO EEEET.

[@Bloodreign1]

No can do, unless it's original developer company, the long dead Takeru, okays it.

[@ElBloeTigre]

[@SamusKerrigan]

2:10 metroid slugs!

[@PSVitaat2am]

One of the few games that warra nts its price.

[@jupreindeer]

The price of the real cartridge is indeed, insane. Leave those for the guys who have bottomless wallets and bragging needs for owning 'Color a Dinosaur'. Seeing as how I would never ever see a real copy of this, I shamelessly went for a 100+ in 1 cart that sold for a reasonable amount and got an HDMI NES clone to run it on. Budget under fifty and got many fun & rare games. NOTE: Know what you are getting with multi-carts. Many like to have a hundred slightly altered versions of Super Mario Bros. So, do your KZbin viewing homework before blindly buying even a few of these.

[@MoteofLobross]

Oh man.... rub it in, will ya ;_; I bought this game from a Blockbuster when they were clearing out their NES rentals in the early 90's and ended up leaving it and a bunch of my old NES games on the curb when I moved out of my dad's place. Such regret...

[@shahid1296ify]

I thought this was going to be Pacman.. WHAT!?!?!

[@richardherzog5405]

THERES a SEALED one on eBay for $30k .

[@AlyxxTheRat]

For anyone who wants to play Little Samson... there is always emulation... ;)

[@ClexYoshi]

I mean... Surprise at Dinosaur Peak and Shatnae are also Good. I imagine that HAS to be a repro. I've never med someone at a flea market dumb enough to not do at least SOME cursory research into WTF they are selling.

[@redeyesstfu]

The game old guys break bank for...

[@ninjamaster3453]

$20? Must be a repro

[@UberMan5000]

It looks like one. Nothing wrong with that, if there's more of a demand for the game than there was in 1992.

[@Gayestskijumpever]

Yo mama's a repro.

[@lvl5Vaporeon]

Ninja Master If we could check the back, match the board and look at the sticker, then I can say if its a legit copy or not.

[@TwistC]

lvl5Vaporeon it says reproduction on the label

[@TwistC]

Logical Phallusy I know this, but this cart is obviously a repro BECAUSE of that

[@technologyproductions-ye3px]

I know this has nothing to do with this video but if net neutrality ends I am going to cry😭 and curse real loud

[@Mentally_Hilarious]

Why? Net neutrality is just a government power grab over the internet with a name that makes it seem good, exactly like the patriot act. Why are big corporations like google and youtube allowed to discriminate against data but ISP's are not?

[@fredfuchs3573]

Did that lava come from a turbo volcano

[@JoshPowell81]

Reminds me of Mega Man 👍🏻

[@SatoshiMatrix1]

The only problem with Little Samson is it's anti-climatic ending. The game just kinda stops. A plot would have been nice.

[@rarecoolitems]

Little Sampson is for suckers - Smurfs for the coleco vision is where it's at.

[@Riz2336]

Great game to play the rom of, not worth it to own a legit copy unless your a hardcore collector.

[@edwinmannaandthelearningch4450]

Boss grafix for nes its like Kirby

[@zintosion]

Rock guy can walk on spikees

[@FritoFredrik]

awesome game and i got ti :D

[@mrjoejon6882]

Rock dude is a Golem lol

[@euphoricatheist6694]

Those aren't waterfalls.

[@Mentally_Hilarious]

"I don't know if this is real or not...." It clearly says reproduction label on the front. Come on CGR, you have to have higher standards than that.

[@gillianseed4419]

obviously not

[@segagenesis1989]

I don't think that's necessarily the case. A CIB version of the game sells for just under $1000.00. Is it really worth it for the average gamer? Not really. Some people have bigger priorities than gaming alone.

[@Mentally_Hilarious]

I'm just saying that he should have been able to tell us it was a repro. If he doesn't really know if it is fake he shouldn't be collecting games. And actually cart only is $1000. I'm not bashing him for not buying a thousand dollar game.

[@mumboking]

The cartridge could be original, with the only reproduction part being the label.

[@Mysticfateee]

I didn't even see that tiny label... had to go and pause the video when i saw your comment 😂

[@geraldojunior7467]

Masterpiece

[@AlyxxTheRat]

This game is good but it isn't GAIARES!

[@fluttershystayshigh4202]

the obnoxious music change every time you swap characters was what killed this game for me, its not that the character specific music themes weren't cool, they actually sounded awesome, but changing between them each and every time you swap characters was not a good idea, it made the game sound ridiculous.

[@MrTripcore]

Reminds me of megaman

[@MARK111174]

rented this and finished in one day (both quests), worth $30

[@warmecanic]

It´s not good, it is superb a fucking materpiece and whoever say the contrary, never really played at all.

[@McommaJake]

I'm poor so I'll probably never play this, but judging from this video I'd say this is easily the most visually stunning game on NES. It's possibly even more pretty to look at than anything on SNES also.

[@100Bucks]

Game looks good. Too much tho. Place a rom in a roms folder and you good. He climbs walls like strider. Game looks fun.

[@MasatoHuehara]

Everybody says SAMPSON hahahahaha.

[@DanPantzig]

"Mad Max is a good game" - No, no it is not at all.

[@atranfanatic]

Which is why I emulated it on my PC. The price for this game is absolutely ridiculous. I would love to have it on cartridge, but not for that outrageous price. It is a good game just too bad it is out of reach for collectors that play their games like me.

[@PKInTheUniverse]

I have a cheap reproduction of this and I made a custom label for it that looks like it’s a black label game . People who pay $1000 for this are throwing their money away.

[@loganjorgensen]

Little Samson, one of the reasons the reproduction market is so important. Original copies, don't buy them. :P
