Dr. Slump Review | PlayStation | Episode 21

[@TheSelectGaming]

R.I.P to the legend and wonderful Akira Toriyama. Thank you for giving us the world of Dr. Slump, Dragon Ball, and for being such a strong collaborative force in the world of video games. If you want to see more of the game, watch our HD longplay of Dr.Slump on the link below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnOphoZtn7qGo68

Really, really bad review. You talk endlessly about totally irrelevant nonsense for a third of the video. Really bad impression for new viewers wanting to see a review of the game. Asking for subs before you've shown anything worth subbing to? 😂😂😂

[@arostwocents]

I wish I could give this more than one 👎- I want to know what the game is like and you're still giving general info about the world almost 8:00 in to this, before you FINALLY get started on what the game is like. 👎 👎

[@Based_Face]

RIP Toriyama! You were an absolute legend!

[@tiagochefestudio]

I'm playing this game for the first time right now. I'm on Chapter 4 and i'm really impressed by the quality of this game. It really is a hidden gem.

[@TheSelectGaming]

We love it

[@SuiteLifeofDioBrando]

Recently discovered the series and love it.

[@TheSelectGaming]

Thank you, appreciate that. More reviews on the way ❤

I’m the 821 subscriber to this channel and I’m shocked by the quality and the fact that I’m only the 821st person to subscribe, not the 500,000. Excellent content and channel overall!

[@TheSelectGaming]

Thanks mate. Glad you found the channel. Happy to have you with us!

[@GabAssbreaker]

Great editing, this video deserve more views. Dr.Slump is so underrated, one of my favorite animes of all time.

[@TheSelectGaming]

This game introduced me to the world of Dr.Slump. I'm happy to say I am now a lifelong fan of this character. Thanks for watching!

[@mkayrose6070]

I'm a huge Dr Slump, my personal fav show and book series in Japan! It's nice to see this game get attention!

[@TheSelectGaming]

Love this game. It made me a fan of the show 😄

[@Dr.norimaki]

What is Dr.slump?

[@Miki-hk6vy]

​@@Dr.norimaki a japanese manga made by Akira Toriyama(Dragon Ball creator) it's focused on the titular doctor making a robot, but he ended up making Arale and she gets him in lots of trouble like a real child(lol). Recommend reading it, it's short but funny

[@Dr.norimaki]

@@Miki-hk6vy I was joking lol

commenting to hopefully boost your video, great video!

Thanks ENDVR96💛

[@alexandrastanaev4399]

I loved reading "Dr. Slump". It was very funny manga. I never laughed like that before.

[@TheSelectGaming]

I legit laughed out loud many times while playing this game. Some wild and unexpected dialog.

[@alexcolon1422]

Great video, will definetely check Slump out! Quick suggestion btw, in your video reviews you use a lot of footage from games that look hella of interesting. I know is a pain in the ass, but can you maybe add their titles on a corner? Would be greatly appreciated.

[@TheSelectGaming]

Thanks for the feedback Alex, appreciate it! I think we will start to put the time-stamps with titles of games in the video description for people who want to explore those titles a bit more for themselves moving forward.

[@MattNigrelli]

I have this game! I picked it up probably 20 years ago at this point. I always enjoyed laughing at the poop. I'm really happy you reviewed it and to find out it has been fan translated! Now I'm curious if there has been an ALITA fan translation yet! Also. R.I.P. Akira you were a big part of my life since I was in middle school. I still remember watching the international channel to watch DBZ raw because at that time they never finished the series past Namek Saga.. Good times.

[@TheSelectGaming]

Hold on to that copy, it's a gem!

[@hilltopworks]

Great video!

[@TheSelectGaming]

Glad you enjoyed it! We appreciate the support!

[@malonshammer]

@@TheSelectGaming You know that's the person who translated this game right?

[@TheSelectGaming]

@@malonshammer Wait, for real?

[@thatssovert]

Absurd video and editing quality! Cheers!

[@TheSelectGaming]

Thank you! Arale approves this message.

[@LINKISDEAD]

I'm currently playing this and misadventures of tron bonne on my R36S. Great being able to play it anywhere. I'm only in the 1st ch. and it had me cracking up, I love the goofy writing.

[@TheSelectGaming]

Dr. Slump and Tron Bonne is a great combo! Dialog in Dr. Slump is what caught me off guard in a great way. Very entertaining 🤣

[@LINKISDEAD]

@@TheSelectGaming Dr.Slump LOL what a womanizer! Akira must have ONE womanizer in his stories! lol

[@TheSelectGaming]

@@LINKISDEAD Classic Toriyama 🤣

[@tryinghardtobecool]

Great content! Subscribed! I played this game when it came out but gave up because I dont know any Japanese language, where did you get the english translated version if I may ask?

[@TheSelectGaming]

Thank you! There are quite a few out there, but the one that worked for me came from CD Romance.

[@HIROTONFA]

Thank you for this retrospective!

[@TheSelectGaming]

Thank you for watching!

Thank you! Who made the thumbnail for this video, by the way?

it’s about time.

[@TheSelectGaming]

Dr. Slump finally gets some love ☺

[@vicman3122]

if Arale wore her original out fit this would be perfect !!! does someone know if that is possible?

[@TheSelectGaming]

I've seen screen shots of in-game stuff where she's wearing different outfits. The option to do so is in her room by going up to the coat hanger, but it never worked for me. The additional costumes was something that I couldn't figure out unfortunately.

[@keyblademastersora9369]

Just found the game yesterday love it Rip Akira Toriyama may you rest in peace you legend

[@TheSelectGaming]

One of the most unsung gems of the PS1 era. Long live Toriyama!

What's the game in the intro?

[@TheSelectGaming]

Which one? Last Guy, Noby Noby Boy ... Do you have a timestamp?

[@sephiroth29440]

Nice video bruh

[@TheSelectGaming]

Thanks! Great game.

[@palmtoptiger1405]

Can U play it in Ps5?

[@TheSelectGaming]

This was played on an emulator. Only real way to play it is with a Japanese PS1 and the physical disc that is only in the Japanese language 😔

[@danielvillanueva3792]

Wrong, Penguin Village is not set in Japan, but in the Dragon World (Planet 4032-877)

[@TheSelectGaming]

Hey Daniel, thanks for clarifying if that's the case! I tried to find as much info as I could, but only stumbled upon it being a fictional place in Japan. If that's the case, thanks for letting me know. The game was my first intro to the franchise.

Wrong, Dreamcast was released in 1998 in Japan.

[@TheSelectGaming]

Yes! 1998 was the year it was released in Japan. I was referring to the North American release date of the Dreamcast in the intro. Thanks for watching all the way through mate!

[@JKSmith-qs2ii]

I see zero evidence of cel shading in this game. All the shading is baked into the textures. The PS1 can’t even do shaders.

[@TheSelectGaming]

I feel like games like Dr. Slump and Mega Man Legends were very early examples of early cel shaded games. Super bright saturated colors that had clean polygons. Either way, they did a great job of capturing that bright anime energy to the game.

[@JKSmith-qs2ii]

@@TheSelectGaming Thats not what cel shading is however but yeah they are saturated and clean.

[@AidGum]

Ridge Racer Type 4 has gouraud shading back in 1999 actually. The PS1 can do shading, it’s just that not many games do it.

[@JKSmith-qs2ii]

@@AidGum I just watched some clips of ridge racer and you’re right! I actually never saw any kind of pixel shaders on the PS1, they must have done it in software that’s really cool.
