I really loved my GBA. I was so glad the DS had a GBA port

[@yotsubafanfan]

That's actually what caused me to keep my original DS until it eventually stopped working. I LOVED the idea of finally being able to play my GBA games in long car rides simply because of its backlight.

[@sazanadora565]

yotsubafanfan I am about to go on a long car ride and I got my ds lite ready

[@hoobidibahbidibah8119]

One of my biggest regrets as a child was trading in my DS Lite for a DSi and all my GB/GBA games along with it...

[@PUDINHED]

[@BirdyZaG]

Same, which is why I’m glad my 3DS supports Custom Firmware. Now I can play any gba game.

[@Acheo_]

It’s important to note that Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga was released in Japan AFTER other regions. There are multiple minor oddities that were fixed in the Japanese version, as well as a few alterations to sound effects and the choice of music. There were also a few gameplay changes to make the game easier.

[@ForeverLaxx]

Interesting that the game was made easier for Japanese audiences and not the other way around, as is usually the case.

[@DefinitiveDubs]

@@ForeverLaxx Not true. Japanese games are usually easier. In fact it's quite rare for a Japanese version to be harder.

[@amirgarcia547]

Acheo I hope they made the Cackletta final boss fight easier. Then again, I heard that the remake did so, so I suppose it doesn’t matter much in the long-run.

[@Compucles]

@@DefinitiveDubs Although, "Super Mario Bros. 2" is of course a well known exception.

[@DefinitiveDubs]

@@Compucles Except that was a completely different game. A better example would be Final Fantasy IV, where the exact same game was made easier for the west, and didn't have an option for the original difficulty. But like I said: it's rare. The only other exceptions I can think of are Mega Man 2, Super Mario Bros. 3, and Contra.

[@venabre]

Boy, that pikachu sure was huge. Probably why they had to hunt it down

[@Nesdude42]

I can't believe I didn't notice it when I played it lol

[@lonewolfRPR]

How can someone so cruel kill something so cute dammit!?

[@thatcokestuff]

I remember when I first played the game back then I kinda thought it looked like pikachu haha

[@Real1Gaming]

Man, Shin'en has come a long, LONG way since Maya the Bee. Honestly, Nintendo should buy the studio and have them make F-Zero. They are experts on those games.

[@Mace2.0]

They also did the Iridion games, too.

[@Bruh-jw8mg]

Well can shin'en make a high quality fzero game with loads of content and not a indie racing fzero game like fast rmx which is only 20 dollars while also having kinda bland tracks and not so good music. I'm just saying no need to get mad

[@vennril]

havent even played it but now thats not how its pronounced lol

[@TheKeitaNobodyAskedFor]

Superstar Saga was first released in America, its Japanese and European versions were released later, so, the Oho Gear was originally unused, and then it was brought back in the later versions

[@MrSnake-dh3hu]

The beginning of the video is fake because you can actually see the screen on that GBA.

[@KBABZ]

Got a bit of info regarding the Dragon Ball change. That change is actually a direct reference to the English dub of the show, which used the exact same altered line. The more masculine design of the underpants however is only in the GBA game.

[@odinsplaygrounds]

Good video. The botched Pokemon GBA graphics due to the emulation filter was hard to watch. Raw pixels would have looked better.

[@1invag]

Better maybe, good? No lol

[@lwvmobile]

at 3:15 that is オーシャンウェア, which to me sounds a lot more like it is meant to be "Ocean Wear" than Oho Wear. Not sure, but seems appropriate since they appear to be at an ocean. Its probably swimming trunks or something.

[@uberhero6218]

In the end game of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance you’ll unlock a special mission after reaching certain criteria that tasks you with slaying 3 vampires which use the same names as the bullies from the snowball fight and the zombies from the rescue the professor mission. In that mission you’ll be accompanied by Ritz (your school friend who dislikes the bullies) and after completing the mission she’ll reference the bullies by claiming that the snowball fight is over which leaves your character a little confused as he doesn’t draw the same parallels she did.

[@Cloud_Seeker]

I remember them showing up in more then 2 missions.

[@TheomanZero]

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga was actually released in Japan after other regions, so the Oho Gear was added, not removed.

[@SonofSethoitae]

It was released in Europe and Australia after Japan, and they didn't get Oho Gear either. Besides, the game was developed in Japan, so it's really more correct to say it was removed from the international editions.

[@TheGreyJayLP]

Superstar Saga actually released first in NA if I remember right

[@catriamflockentanz]

6:31 Okay, that's stupid. Who is interested in this game likely knows DragonBall. So s/he would also know of the fact that Oolong wished for a pair of panties...

[@lotus-prince]

At the same time, though, in the American version of the show, Oolong still wished for comfortable underwear. They covered for the change in dialogue by being baffled that the underwear that came down was for women.

[@bloring1222]

I’m someone who’s recently beat Chain of Memories, and you have a slight piece of information wrong. The game is not about Sora obtaining his previous memories, the game is about Sora going through Castle Oblivion and through each world, the gang loses pieces of their memories, and get replaced with fake memories by Namine due to being forced by Organization XIII, while the ending (SPOILER) revolves around Namine erasing Sora’s memories inside Castle Oblivion, putting Sora Donald and Goofy into a deep sleep. They didn’t try to obtain their memories, they were simply realizing that through every level, the chain of memories they were piecing together were fake, replaced, and misguiding, like Sora thinking he knew Namine his entire life, when it was actually Kairi.

In Atlus’s excellent GBA port of Double Dragon - fittingly titles Double Dragon Advance - loads of new content and enemies were added. Much of it takes influence from The Matrix, as you will fight Agent Smith-type bad guys and even Morpheus, and a stage takes place atop a moving semi truck.

There's no possible way 415-555-1212 was her real number. It's well known here in the US that 555-1212 is a dummy phone number or almost any number with 555 as the suffix. You'll hear it every time someone gives out a phone number aloud in a movie.

[@thenostalgiabusiness]

415-444-1212 is a real phone number? Aren't phone numbers that start with 555 fake and that's why they always use them in movies?

[@AlessandroCussino]

AMAZING VIDEO !!! I love the GB and DS\3DS series of handheld consoles (i growed up with the original game boy from 1989 and a copy of Super Mario Six Golden Coins. Ok, technically speaking the GBA is more like a Snes ... but take a look at Street Racing Syndicate, it looks like a damn Ps1 game (the only real problem with that game is the frame rate, unstable because of the heavy use of complex and big polygonal objects and texturized cars).

[@Superkidra]

6:05 Deltarune on Gizmondo when?

[@GabePuratekuta]

After the Ouya version

[@dmansuperich2800]

Kinda unrelated but I just beat Superstar Saga today

[@MrJechgo]

Here's something I wish they did with the GBA: add the Y and X buttons, like the SNES controller. I'm sorry, but if the Game Boy was supposed to be a "portable NES", the GBA should have been considered the portable version of the SNES, but all buttons added in. Porting SNES games into the GBA would have been so much better if the control scheme was integrated.

[@VinchVolt]

Wasn't the underwear censorship in Dragon Ball: Advanced Adventure actually a carryover from the censored version of the 2001 Funimation dub?

[@quetzadrake]

The change from "girl's panties" to "world's most comfortable pair of underwear" is actually consistent with the NA dub of Dragonball, I pretty distinctly remember Oolong saying it because he had to say it really quick to fit that big sentence into the space of 3 syllables.

[@Compucles]

It was in the censored version that aired on Cartoon Network, anyway. Wasn't there also an uncut English release of DB and DBZ?

[@quetzadrake]

@@Compucles Yes, to some degree, because I also remember as a kid briefly seeing a Dragonball episode where they caught Oolong (as a fish) using panties as bait, but in the CN version, it was drawn over with a stack of dollar bills.

[@CaptainJoystick]

I remember that in the original dub that aired in the 90s! Pilaf kept saying "I-I want supreme-" and Oolong interupted shouting "comfort! In a pair of underwear!"

I dont think it’s accurate to say “NTSC” or “PAL” when talking about GBA games, as European games ran at 60 fps just like other regions for GBA.

[@minemariosonic]

EZGames 69 In this case the regions are still split into NTSC and PAL, so they are referring to the region (NTSC being americas and japan, rest being PAL)

[@jonaszprzybycien6545]

True but there were still some differences between regions such as european version of Minish Mask being based on a beta build which had a bug preventing you from joining medals with an NPC which makes it impossible to progress the story.

The changes to Oolong's wish for underwear was also used in the anime, with the English adaptation making the same change. The one exception is that they were still panties, and Oolong commented with slight enthusiasm on that point once they appeared. "GIVE ME THE WORLD'S MOST COMFORTABLE PAIR OF UNDERWEAR! ... They're women's underwear? Heh." He then spent the rest of the episode wearing them on his head, with his ears sticking out of the leg holes.

blech! I hate that stupid filter over most of the GBA footage here. Also, Ivalice is a Japanese born name, So all instances of what would be the letter "i" are always pronounced like saying the letter "e". So it's like E- Vah- Leece. Just had to say since this is a show called Didyouknowgaming. I figured I would contribute to the accuracy. Since sometimes, pronunciations are apart of the show's footnotes on certain topics.
