Game Scoop! 580: This New Nintendo Switch Game Looks Amazing

[@roblichner20]

All of you have great chemistry with your conversations. One of the best podcasts ever.

[@DannieDecentVlogs]

Agree

15:50 Tina's cat is waiting for Game Scoop to start!!!!

[@blugrave4345]

The Sonic movie was surprisingly good. I saw it a few weeks ago with my wife and kids on a whim. Was able to watch it for free. There's so much to appreciate in it that I went a bought the Blu-ray to support them. I highly recommend it.

[@MemeCastGuy69]

@ 16:30 Uhh the Saints Row 3 Remaster is such a good remaster actually... Might wanna check your sources a bit more Game Scoopers. Digital oundry literally just put out a video on how impressive of a remaster... Not only are textures way better, but the characters and animations are much cleaner! Check it out Scoopers and let everyone know how much work was put into it compared to most remasters that are coming out lately!

[@jamesproko3391]

Watching you four discuss why you all fell in love with video games gave me all the feels! Your recounting of growing up in the 80’s and 90’s is always such a delight and trip down memory lane. Keep doing what you’re doing! Love this show always. Stay safe.

[@squiddly007]

The Dreamcast sold nearly 10 million units in less than 2 years which was pretty good for back then. I had a Videogame store in the UK back in the 90's and one day the official Dreamcast magazine came with a disc that let you play import games - the problem - it let you play copied games without opening your console and voiding your warranty (Like PSONE) I think this was a major cause of the Dreamcast failing. To my point I was selling and part exchanging lots of Dreamcast games and I had about £6000-£8000 worth of games on my shelf. Less than a month after that disc released I barely sold any for months. I couldnt even sell brand new games at a heavy discount.

[@joshhansen20]

You four individuals are some of my favorite humans of all time. Thank you for the scoop.

[@tarfariclark7130]

These scoops mean so much to me thank you guys so much

[@cantona222]

@37:00 How do you spell "a marriot"? It's a new phrase for me and I want to look it up.

[@trekbsg]

How I fell in love with video games, being on the older side of life I wasn't exposed to video games until I was a teenager with atari and arcades and even though there was an atari in the house, it was a "family console" and my time with it was limited, by the time the nes came out I was an adult and had other interests as most young men do(girls, sports, fast cars & motorcycles), my youngest brother exposed me to nes but I didn't buy a system(snes) until I married my first wife and she absolutely loved playing it, several years later I lost my wife and I was having a hard time dealing with the loss and felt like I was losing my mind, I needed a distraction and bought another snes to help distract me and occupy my time, I've been playing regularly now for the last 25 years.

[@noahstevens3060]

That's a touching story man. Thank you for sharing.

[@Liquidduck]

When I played Animal Crossing for GameCube back in 2002, I listened to Kylie Minouge Fever album.

[@tommarkus7744]

Perfect combination !

[@mickael486]

I always look forward to thia time of day refreshing my you tube to see these 4 guys and gals. Sam or someone makes me laugh at least twice every episode.

[@jean-lucpicard2914]

That Saints Row remaster is standard setting and one of the best of the generation, it's almost a remake in some regards. The effort the developers went to in updating it is insane. At the very least watch the Digital Foundry analysis for some actual insight. I'm not just repeating this either, it looks great and even some of the smaller changes (on a long list of changes) are game changers. There's no reason it should be as good as it is.

[@ryan011193]

I was hoping that someone in the comments mentioned the Digital Foundry analysis of Saint Row The Third Remastered. I watched Ryan's IGN review and thought it had been a standard port with not much effort but you watch the DF analysis and the game has clearly had a lot of effort poured into it. I looked at the price on PlayStation Store before watching either videos and just laughed as I thought £35 here in the UK was way too much for a remaster with the normal amount of effort, the DF video shows why they are asking a premium for it.

[@stuartbagley2586]

I think Ryan made the mistake of comparing it to remakes like Resident Evil and Final Fantasy VII rather than The Bioshock Collection or The Last of Us.

[@jean-lucpicard2914]

@@ryan011193 I'm not trying to oversell the game either. I'm not an avid Saints Row fan, at least at this time (this remaster is tempting though). I'm sure aspects of the core gameplay are very much antiquated but I wouldn't know - and maybe there are stylistic changes that would be a deterrent for some. It doesn't change the fact that it's somewhat unprecedented for a remaster to make so many extensive upgrades to rendering or to rework assets on such a large scale.

[@mymomsaysimcool9650]

I fell in love with video games on Christmas Eve 1978 when my parents gave me a Coleco Marksman pong clone. I was 8 and had never seen anything like it. I didn’t even ask for it but I discovered later dad wanted it to introduce me to guns rather than a BB gun. They were saying I’d shoot my eye out long before A Christmas Story.

[@bigsucculenta1]

Where is The Eternal Castle? Checked the shop and not there...anyone see it?

[@AJ72281]

What’s funny is that I have “Still Alive” as a song I downloaded for Rock Band......

[@EdwinHernandez-nm4uq]

Oh man... I remember when I was in high school playing WoW while listening the Oasis discography over and over again. What a strange kid I was.... >_>

[@Whiskeyjack27]

Always happy when Scoop comes out, look forward to it every week

[@vastneon]

Animal Crossing has a walk button. Hold the net and move to start a slow walk to sneak up on bugs.

[@81ironmonk]

What game is that opening music from? Please Omega Cops.

[@samuelchallis3420]

Minish Cap came out my freshman year of college. I played through it in bed each evening and just listened to The Killers Hot Fuss, Gorillaz Demon Days, and the first two Interpol albums on rotation. That’s pretty much the only time that I listened to something besides the in game music

[@xDr_SeanG-]

Sly cooper remasters please! My favorite series of all time!

[@Jecru_]

👌🏽 suggestion

[@dukestaa3852]

God, I love video games so much. This may sound like dramatic, but I would go mentally insane if it wouldn’t be for video games. Especially during these tough/weird times we are living today. Can’t wait for all the games coming out in the next few months (TLOU2, Ghost,etc.) and then Next Gen BABY!!!!!

[@Spooky-XVX]

Everyone gets their opinion, but FF7 remake for me is the best game on PS4 since Bloodborne.

[@ianANDtheLEYlines]

What’s the guitar right behind you, daemon?

[@linx3289]

I know I'm pretty late to the party, but Avril Lavigne's "Complicated" reminds me of Lost Kingdoms on GCN. My brother and I were in the bonus room playing games, and we had that song playing. We wanted to here it again, so he put repeat on; but got a phone call from the gf before the song stopped. I played Lost Kingdoms for 4 hours with that song on repeat before I realized he was still gone and the song was still playing. That's the only one I can think of, though, because I often play games in total silence. For one reason or another, even though I love video game soundtracks, I would end up just playing the game without sound (and without anything to fill the void). It's actually been quite useful to me now that I have small kids on either side of the game room.

[@LilTempo25]

That was a perfect ending to this week's Game Scoop!

[@SteakstixAnimations]

I switched to the video version as soon as I heard about the presence of a cat on screen

[@absoluteraft51]

Takashi Iizuka has said he wants to make another nights game but the higher ups won’t let them

[@Aarvex]

Tecmo Super Baseball sparked my love for games. The game was fine, 4 year old me wasn't enthralled by it but when you hit a home run a banger started to play and it got me so hype. Loved games ever since and oddly only played one baseball game since.

You might see game companies move out of California. Some states like Texas are wide open. If game companies want to record an orchestra, they just can't do it in California.

[@exzisd]

Nice scoop only 13 questions for the ring. GameScoop & NVC are tied for my fav IGN content.

[@ecnerwal1234]

I used to listen to a a Screeching Weasel while playing a PC game called Death Rally, so now whenever i listen to that CD I think of Death Rally. And, I had an Enemy You CD that I listened to while playing jet Force Gemini so I always think of that game when i hear that CD.

[@pepealexandre8815]

Daemon’s remaster suggestions are all phenomenal that I had not considered before. I would LOVE Dead space, burnout, and viewtiful Joe. All great franchises I played a ton in my teens

[@friendlywraith611]

Who hears the song Mad World and thinks of the 1st Gears of War trailer?

I would probably send my young self a lot of modern Sprite based games. Like 199X, Aliens Colonial Marines, Bloodstained Ritual, Dead Cells etc.

[@Panyc333]

I would send back The Orange Box collection to my younger self.

[@toolebukk]

Freebird was on Guitar Hero too

[@dementedavenger2784]

FF 8 had a walk button. You would run normally with the joystick and then hold square or whatever to walk. And I just replayed Inside and it was still just as awesome.

[@usedfuzzbox]

It took me over 20 mins to notice that Daemon had changed the hat message to Omega Cops this week :D

I played many hours of "The Sims" in high school (15 years ago). During which I listened to a lot of "Tool" and "Coheed and Cambria" so anytime those bands pop up, I think of The Sims. Odd combination, I know.

[@IggyP0pBarker]

Dune: Battle for Arrakis and Jilted Generation by Prodigy - played the whole game (3 factions) with this as my soundtrack

[@TheHypersonic55]

I thought the Sonic movie was fun, as someone who was cautiously optimistic, I ended up really enjoying it. Now it doesn’t stray too far from the standard conventions of CG/live action hybrid films. But Sonic was good, Jim Carey as Robotnik was crazy fun, the action sequences were cool and it set up a good foundation for a sequel that will hopefully dive deeper into the game material.

Awww Tina put Game Scoop on the TV. Hope Sam gets the Game Scoop pinball machine in the background next time.

[@marcusgonzalez7233]

I would send back 2018 Spider-Man. Child me would be dumbfounded by how the game is better than the movies. “Amazing” by Aerosmith in the end credits of Dead or Alive 4 for the X360. Always think of how many times I beat the game with a different character to hear that song. “Dance Hall Days” by Wang Chung sends me back to Vice City every time. Great Cast Scoop

[@razamadaz3417]

Correction: Mafia 2 is a poor remaster. Saints Row has been completely re-worked and looks amazing, at least on PC it does...... Don't believe the IGN review, it's short sighted and not accurate. Good show BTW.

16:30 Saints Row the Third Remaster is anything but a cheap remaster, I don't know what Ryan smoked, but if you want to see how much has been redone and with how much care, you guys should check out Digital Foundry deep dive about it. They were really impressed and again Ryan missed the mark... kzbin.info/www/bejne/houVhqaVeJZ5iqc

[@apnwu369]

Sega still makes great games like Valkyria Chronicles, Sakura Wars, Yakuza, etc. and they bought companies like Atlus. Still though would love to see games like Shining Force comeback. Please buy camelot from Nintendo so they aren't forced to only make Mario Tennis games

[@guip1408]

These musics from Mega Man X gave me chills

[@AnyGamesNecessary]

SEGA also own Atlus which has created one of arguably the greatest RPGs of this generation if not all time. So yeah SEGA is doing just fine, don’t think we need a new crazy taxi or vectorman. Maybe Skies of Arcadia remake/sequel.

[@aaronjones6798]

Starting thinking of the Destroy all humans! remake coming up, I've no clue if they mo-capped anything for the remake, and if they haven't more like these could be possible - although I'd be happy enough with ports instead of remakes, I still play DOOM & Duke Nukem 3D in all their pixellated glory. I might send Sonic Mania back in time to my past self, I'd play and think 'this is a pretty good Sonic sequel'.
