Hi! I’m actually the developer who worked on Cerulean Dreams for the GBA/DS. We were self funding as an indie developer and had prepared some demos and even met with Majesco at the Game Developers conference. They were open to publishing but wanted a finished game and would not be able to provide us with the funding needed to hire the artists and developers we needed, unfortunately. We recently started working on an NES home brew prequel to Cerulean Dreams named Cerulean Ascension and hope to put out a cartridge and digital release by end of this year / early next year. We also renamed the company to Celisphere Interactive.

I love the fact that one game was turned away for being "too" original.

[@that_deadeyegamer7920]

@@Tatokat because gamers are fickle. We want innovation until it comes around then we hate on it for stepping outside the box. Countless games have been review bombed only because they tried being different, or they try a different setting so publishers learned early on to stop investing in change and invest in the status quo

[@Tatokat]

@@that_deadeyegamer7920 The opposite is also true however. Franchises slowly dying because the fans are getting sick of buying the same game with different graphics over and over again (I think something like that might currently be happening with Assassins Creed), while other franchises that constantly innovate and change (for example the Mario franchise) are doing just as well after several decades as on their first day. It always depends on what the change is, and how it's being presented. Like, if (once again) Assassins Creed was suddenly turned into an on-rail fps, people would probably not like it. It would be a change from the down trodden path, but not necessarily a good one. And at least some of the innovative games that never found an audience or were outright rejected might have been better received with a better advertisement and presentation. Change is a difficult thing but also necessary. After all, without it we would still be playing Pong on the Atari 2600.

To make this game even better, let's add a Gyroscope pack where you'll need to violently shake your DS to the left or right to drift and just causally tilt it to turn normally. AND exclusive to DSi users, the game would use the camera to tell if the player is looking at the TOP screen or not. Making the game even more challenging as you are ONLY allowed look at the bottom map screen while racing.... Then we send a copy of the game to Scott the Woz and label it "Gex 4: Tail Whiplash DS".

This Christmas Boo..... Why was it Boo being crucified. That is equivalent to calling the death anniversary of a person his birthday.

Idk.

I think whoever wrote this has a "sense of humor"

"we were going to give it away, but that would have cost us money, so we threw it in the trash instead" what?

metrod draed is happening

"3 Tribes was a game developed by developer 2 Tribes." Excuse me, what?

7:00 the Baten Kaitos one hit me hard. I would have loved it.

[@FudgemintGuardian]

Both games are amazing and it's such a shame this one didn't happen. The card battle system would have been a great fit for touchscreens.

[@BugsyFoga]

A Crash bandicoot by Wayforward would've been awesome.

[@ShadowJinjoYu]

Nathaniel Foga why wayforward

[@Seantendo]

Can't help but think they would turn it into a 2D action RPG.

[@BugsyFoga]

@@Seantendo or something similar to the huge Adventure or N trance

Everyone: CRUCIFIED BOO Me: WHY DID WE NEVER YET THE JOY OF PAINTING

[@Geek69420]

Oh come on a Bob Ross game got cancelled! This would be a good game for switch

[@lrgogo1517]

I cracked up at the unusually serious intonation Remix used when he said "how to get down." 25:46

[@FatKidWitAJetPak]

Baten Kaitos is one of the most underrated RPGs ever made. Just played it again, and it still holds up extraordinarily well. The art is amazing.

[@snowtenkey118]

Everyone gangsta till Metroid Dread releases on the Nintendo Switch this October

[@CarmenBeckett]

14:50 Gauntlet was also on the official Nintendo site for a while in fact it still might be there.

[@tylorian5168]

Dang, an Initial D game!? I'd be very down for that, especially if it had the music as well.

[@waldoc2829]

"Screen real estate was an issue" "We couldn't figure out what to do with the bottom screen" Just put all the text on the botom screen, the hell?

[@samwoodley1653]

The SNARK on some of these entries is out of this world

[@genericfriend2568]

I thought you had been shitposting when saying "to the sadness of everyone", but then my heart was legitimately stomped on when you started talking about the Bob Ross game

[@user-jl7cz2pe6d]

Metroid Dread is probably my favorite cancelled DS game

[@eyesvisionsight]

Same. I hope we get a main story Metroid soon. Fusion was awesome

[@haruhisuzumiya6650]

Dread was a fusion remake

[@cloudfair5969]

What the hell that Sheikh game sounds wicked

[@eXiLe824]

There's something nostalgic to me about 2000s video game commercials. They have this kind of specific aesthetic, lots of oversaturated colors and cartoony characters walking around realistic backgrounds. Reminds me of growing up during that era.

[@RetroBreak]

Great video! Sounds like getting publishers was really difficult back in the DS era! So glad we've come a long way since then and Indies can self publish

[@SolarBeingAsh]

A game I remember hearing about in a GameInformer or Nintendo Power article a while back was Whirlwind, this top down adventure game that looked like a clone of the DS Zelda games. The article even included a few screenshots.

[@HenriqueMelo1989]

*Now everyone is waiting for someone to access and leak all these things really soon.*

[@sagacious03]

Great video! Thanks for uploading!

[@chomperelectric2676]

"to the great sadness of Everyone on the planet" (Shows Bob ross) Oh no

"Oh boy, I hope they talk about Metroid Dread" *first game is Metroid Dread* Feelsgoodman.png

[@Teamfortress2irl]

IM REALLY FEELING IT

[@MonsterTaming420]

ive been really into the nds because of your videos, and my homebrew dsi and i thank you for this.

[@soulessshadow5356]

The Choro Q games remind me of that game Roadtrip on the PS2 where you play as different cars going around the "world" doing tasks and racing to unlock new cars and stuff.

[@Igorcastrochucre]

32:35 Orbital Media also made Scurge:Hive, that Metroid-like game for the GBA and DS, play it if you haven't already.

[@Roadent1241]

I love Scurge, did that leave on a cliffhanger or was I just enjoying it too much? It felt like it ended open.
