Console Crunch # 4 - Game Sack

[@pv8685]

i cant belive these videos are 9 years old... where did time go?! thank you so much for doing this awesome show joe!

[@mcampellone]

I always love watching game sack videos but I will say I want to comment on this one for anybody that may be coming across this video recently. I collect all game consoles everything from the 1970s until now and one of my systems I enjoy is the pcfx. One way to get around the limitation of not being able to read the Japanese text, especially when interacting with that text can be quite important to the gameplay, is to simply take an Android tablet and put it in a tablet stand sitting in front of you as you play with the tablet pointed at the screen. Have it on and plugged into the AC power so the screen never turns off. Launch Google translate and have it pointing to the screen and every time text comes up on the screen if you glance down at the tablet you'll see that the tablet has already translated the majority of the text to make it easier to understand. That's one way around it otherwise you'll spend years and years studying Japanese lol. All in all a great video guys, and if you're new here I recommend that you watch a lot of the game sack videos because they're very informative. Thanks!

GameSack is the unsung hero of hooking people up with game music they have missed. I can't even begin to list the number of 5/5 soundtracks I've scored out of these GameSack episodes. No other channel does it better.

[@petefrancisco3267]

The good sound effects and music are from sega. If you know what it is!

[@oleblue73]

I love the exaggerated click sound you add to your videos whenever you plug something in or attach a peripheral. That sound is oddly satisfying.

[@elhankodinero]

[@xero9243]

@Chad Mawn I think it's the mag sound for some weapons in Counter Strike if I'm correct

Console Crunch was the best idea you've had, if I watch anything game related it ends up in the auto-play queue as the next video because that's obviously based on watch time.

Aw yiss another super long Gamesack compilation. Combined with the three others this has to be all your console episodes, right? I for one would not be opposed to more compilation episodes in other categories.

This was the first i ever heard of the Commodore Amiga CD32 and i really liked it and what i saw, not all the games were perfect but for the most part it was really refreshing and beautifully animated plus from what i could see very smooth running, you guys must be a store/business as you seem to have everything and that's what i like about the show lol no offense its not your humor.

The "no eyes" is an actual intended effect of the art style. (10:42)

Damn dude, that Analogue is beautiful. Eight Man is a game I really live, that people seem to dislike for no reason. It's honestly really fun and looks great. Robo Army is a great beat em up. It gets a little stale toward the end, but it's still a lot of fun.

thank you for putting these together 👍🍺🍻

[@ristopoho824]

If you want a battle system like in the last imperial prince, but done right; Summon Night: Swordcraft Story. Or the sequel. I want to try the other games in the series too. But they are in japanese. Aaaand no i didn't check if Summon Night has been mentioned in any of the videos here. But yea it's awesome and the style of battles really should be used more.

[@silliussoddus1715]

27:00 There's a guy on KZbin who would love that game. He would buy the collector's edition and then put it on the shelf next to all the rest of his games with skimperly dressed little school girls. Then he would sleep on the floor as he spends all his money on video games instead of buying a bed. You probably heard of him? Radical Reginald

I remember beating suikoden III back in the day and having 0 understanding of the combat/rune system the entire playthrough. No idea how I managed to beat it

@ 3:04:50 it also features a laser lens that eventually dies because the voltage adjustment to it is off!

[@PixelsNcreatureS]

When my Duo died i was hunting for a replacement, a local shop had a PCFX and they said it wasn't backwards compatible. I often wonder if I should have just got it but none of these games really says I should have

Out of this bunch, it's too expensive to buy a Neo Geo AES or MVS so I got a Neo Geo Mini and a Neo Geo CD as inferior cheaper substitutes. Also, it's too expensive to buy an Amiga CD32 for me.

What did you end up dropping if you don’t mind? I’m always in the mood to spend money.

[@deathsnitemaresinfullust2269]

Damn. That PC-FX console looks huge, like you could pack So Much stuff in that space these days and make something that play Everything with room for extra storage 😄👍

[@SVMMVS]

PS2 being the most sold console? I believe it. I was in high school when it came out, and people freaked out. At the time it seemed like such a big jump for video games, AND it could play DvDs , CDs, and PS1 games. It was compact, had amazing graphics for the time, and had more game titles then anything anyone had ever seen. Even though some of those titles are literally terrible games, there were so many new ones to try!

[@BrettDelaney-i6b]

Yeah it was so awesome when it first came out seemed like the games were all amazing but after while the crap titles and budget software started hitting and it seemed less impressive,the Dreamcast was quite impressive to

Haa! 1:52:08 In reference to the Pokemon Red entry, if you applied yourself like someone that enjoyed the series and played a few hours every day it'd only take a few months to "catch'em all" and train them to 99.... Many of us did it back in the late 90's. 😅👍

Streets of Rage is definitely my favorite. Even played it every single day on my 3ds till it went belly up.

[@soplam9555]

Every fighting game nowadays have cinematic supers, I wonder the games in this compilation heavily inspired them

[@Level1Sword]

If i ever see a Neo Geo Pocket Color in the wild, I'm picking it up. I borrowed one once and found it to be charming and that control stick was awesome. I'm interested in Sonic Pocket Adventure, but what are some other good platformers?

[@CrossingRover]

The metal slug games on the system are great. They're much more of an action platformer than a run and gun. However the real meat of the NGPC are the fighting games, they are fantastic even with two buttons.

Those don't work great when the font is pixelated and isn't very clear or when the text isn't on a plain background so they don't always work well for games like these. Plus even if it worked perfectly, who wants to hold their phone up and look through it's screen while playing a game?

[@ikillomega]

Heard of the PC-FX, but I have never played it. IMO, TGFX16 is one of the best systems for arcade ports, it and the neo-geo. I bought the minis for both consoles. Completely worth it. I love SHUMPs and arcade fighters so those two bad boys are right up my alley!
