Goemon's Great Adventure - Nintendo 64 Review - Ultra HDMI - HD

[@jubanumidia8460]

This game deserve a remaster or a sequel

[@n64glennplant]

we can only dream it seems

[@taitchartrand9185]

A remaster for Nintendo switch would be awesome! 👍

[@Vinnymanvinny1]

Absolutely!!! This is the most underrated game on the N64 in my opinion

[@Vinnymanvinny1]

I used to play the SNES mystical ninja as a kid. I was a teenager with mystical ninja starring goemon came out and although I liked it I was disappointed that the two player co-op mode was gone period when I found out goemon Great Adventure was going to have the two player mode back, I bought that game on launch day

[@capcaptainmycaptain4771]

It needs a Super Smash Brothers representation

[@alanu4637]

One of the greatest but underrated sidescroller ever made. The best one on the N64 for sure.

[@MyGuyJustinH]

I agree 👍

[@Imgema]

The audio is also very high quality, technically, compared to most N64 games.

[@n64glennplant]

yeah 100%

[@71dembonesTV]

Konami has/had a lot of background in music/audio development. I think some of their earliest work was with electronic jukeboxes and the like. Audio is usually top notch in their games for this reason.

[@Imgema]

I remember the USF chip tune set of this game (the N64 native format ripped tunes, kinda like NSF for NES) was 44khz. Same with their previous Mystical Ninja game. Most other N64 games were either 22 or 32khz. It sounds very clean, it's still midi but it's the best kind of midi.

[@somoscinelento]

Been waiting for this review my whole life. There aren't enough Goemon's Great Adventure videos on KZbin IMO.

[@n64glennplant]

Couldn’t agree more with you! Such a fun game

[@MyGuyJustinH]

@@n64glennplant I agree 👍

There's something so special about these games. You can't stay mad when you're playing them. The music and atmosphere is just so relentlessly cheery. I've completed Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon and I'm most of the way thru a co-op of this game. Can't wait to unlock the 4 player mode!

[@n64glennplant]

I remember playing or watching this game back at my old grandma's house (she played these games and has moved onto other Nintendo games). So much nostalgia from seeing games like these again.

[@ColeFam]

When I was a kid, Sasuke was my favorite, mostly because we could never get to him when renting Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon, but now, I love all 4 for different reasons. Goemon needs a return, that's definitely right. Excellent review! Glad to see Goemon fans out there and it really makes me wanna push further on my own review of Starring Goemon. Again, great stuff! I think I found a new channel to frequent.

[@n64glennplant]

Welcome Cole, I really doubt Konami will grace is with another game any time soon but we can only hope 🤘

[@UeharaM]

The japanese version is a good pick not only because of the inclusion of the opening, but also for its internal battery for saving progress instead of the unreliable memory pak.

[@n64glennplant]

another great point

Good to know although it would be unfortunate to miss out on the storyline if you don't speak Japanese

[@UeharaM]

@@71dembonesTV yeah, I agree! Like glenn said on the review, it could help to have previously experienced the US/EU game first and then delve into the JPN version if you can.

[@timmer919hep]

I didn't know this game existed until I was well near the end of my emulation days. I wish I knew about it sooner because this game is excellent. It's basically the polar opposite of Mystical Ninja. Instead of a semi easy 3D adventure, you get a pretty tough 2.5 D adventure complete with co-op and unlockable 4 player. I'm glad I have this in my collection (along with the other Mystical Ninja N64 game) and I really need to sit down and finish this one.

[@n64glennplant]

yes you do, the entire game is such a blast start to finish. it does have its extremely hard moments but not so difficult you should give up

[@timmer919hep]

My fav character in the series was Sasuke. I used to draw him all the time when I was in school lol. But yeah I remember renting the first N64 game from the local blockbuster over and over, and I could never get past the first robot battle. So I would just constantly play through the opening area cuz it was so neat. Then I found the game in a mom and pop game store and I finally had it! I stayed up constantly playing it till I beat it. What a good time. I really wish they would remaster these games, I would love to see them polished up and brought back for new players to try it. Great video!

My first introduction to Goemon was with the SNES game. I played it at a neighbors house and thought it was cool but it didn't grip me in. However I decided to rent Mystical Ninja for the N64 and instantly fell in love. It's still one of my favourite adventure games today [I ended up buying it later] and I have replayed it multiple times I have to say I was disappointed that the sequel went back to 2-D because I viewed the last entry as incredible so this one never really drew me in.

Such an excellent and well-produced review there Glenn, I've been checking out your videos a lot over the past few months, your N64 reviews are easily the best I've seen. I'm still working my way through your past N64 videos, sometimes in order but then other times when I just want to know about a particular N64 game to know if it's worth either picking up and/or playing then I will seek it out on your channel. I had to check out this review right now though as I've been meaning to play Goemon's Great Adventure, plus I wanted to comment on your most recent video purely to let you know that your reviews are greatly appreciated and that partly because of them, I intend to play a lot more N64 games going forward, beyond the usual ones which I know and love from back in the late-Nineties and just after. Keep up the fantastic work and until next time, Sam.

[@n64glennplant]

thank you sam, this kinda positivity is what keeps me pushing through the many hours it sometimes takes for even a single video

[@samgittins3522]

You're most welcome, I think with Goemon's Great Adventure, I'll probably keep it on a list of game to play co-operatively on the N64, even though it looks like it will be fun in single player, I may play it with my brother later on in the year. Probably after I've played it a bit myself first though... I've got many N64 games to catch up on, despite owning the console since late 1998. I can't wait to play some of the great shooters and racers on the machine which I've bought/rebought over the past few months. Both of the Goemon games are definitely at the top of the list now though for certain, along with both Castlevania titles which I've always wanted to play as well, I look forward to your review of those if they are in the pipeline.

[@Puck90a]

Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon is in my top 10 favorite games of ALL TIME. I never had the chance to play Goemon's Great Adventure back in the day. It wasn't available to rent or buy most places. But I bought it recently, and tbh, I was disappointed. Mystical Ninja was an absolute joy to play. It was kind of easy, but it was such a pleasant story and overall experience that I have very fond memories of. The game just made me HAPPY, and it still does. Goemon's Great Adventure on the other hand is rage-inducing. It's SO much harder, and it doesn't feel hard in a rewarding way to me. It feels like cruel difficulty, where you die and there was no way of knowing what was coming. So I have to replay levels to avoid not dying to a surprise hazard, only to die by a different surprise hazard feet ahead. Then when I finally get to the end, I die at the boss because i don't know the pattern, then start all over. And the overall world doesn't feel nearly as joyful or immersive as Mystical Ninja. It's just a bland side scroller with a sky that is barely visible. The towns feel like they have burdensome conversations. It doesn't feel like a happy fantasy world. I feels like a torture chamber. I actually resorted to using a Gameshark to try to get through some of it, but the game glitches very badly with Gameshark, and it's impossible to finish levels with it. So that's a no-go. I may try to give it another shot one day.

I remember we all only got as far as the fourth world the underworld level. We could never get to the castle because we couldn't find enough passes. Time skip a few years later I found out this game was a sequel after finding the first game at a swap meet. Both of these games sadly got put on hold for a couple of years until I finally felt like playing them. Took some time, but I managed to pass them both. Man I'm so glad that they put up guides for some of those side quests. Oh and before I finish up. Goemon deserved a better TV show than what we ended up getting. I would have liked a show where they use the characters from the game boy game. The one that has impact become neo impact. I swear if your going to make an anime like opening for a game you need to make an actual anime out of it. I think it was call Goemon Shin shuumei something.

The whole Goemon/Mystical Ninja series and its lack of western support is a crying shame.

I don't know where Konami is these days in terms of game development and publishing, since I thought they went full pachinko, but recently they've been re-releasing some of their old library of title in steam collections, and if there's one collection I want way more than Castlevania or Contra, it's a full and complete Goemon collection.

I am a big fan of Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon (3rd favourite game on the system) and when I saw that there was a sequel, I had to get it but I was a bit disappointed to find out that it wasn't exactly like it and it was more in line with the original Legend of the Mystical Ninja and Goemon games that never saw the light of day in the west. I've only finished it once and I still think it is a great game but I am in the group that likes the first N64 one more. I just loved the way it was like Zelda with the castles that were like dungeons and getting new weapons and abilities that helped you get to areas you couldn't beforehand. Never knew about the cut intro and that so have to check that out online if possible since the songs in the first game are perhaps my favourite thing about it. It is a good thing I have a copy of it since I know it goes for a pretty price online nowadays. Great review and it is a shame that this is the last Goemon game we got here in the West. I do have the PS2 Goemon game that was supposed to come out here but never did.

[@n64glennplant]

you have the ps2 Goemon? see I didn't like what they did to Yae in that game but the graphic style was pretty cool. Just didn't have the same feel as the n64 goemons games for me

[@mugencpu]

Me and my brither renting it. One play we were HOOKED. Rented it until we beat it together. Also i was IMBISMARU

[@kaldogorath]

Wow, great throwback. I had no idea which game came first back in the day because I rented them both at the same time, and after renting them enough times the video store told me to keep them lol. I actually would have assumed Mystical Ninja would have been the second game considering that it pushed more into the 3D area. I played both games, but it was probably a 70/30 split favoring Great Adventure - maybe more. I'm sad I didn't know you could change costumes in the game, it would have been so hilarious to play with different outfits. I'm also guilty of not knowing about 4 player mode, but for this specific game it was just me and my brother into it, everyone else was too weirded out by it.

[@superbn0va]

Coop sidescroller/platformer that looks, sounds and plays excellent

[@Jp-gc6bh]

this game was my childhood lolol, playing it on an emulator currently

[@Phantomizer]

I played this game a lot as a kid and It's one of my top favorite games ever...HOW TF DID I NEVER KNOW THE CHARACTERS HAD ALTERNATE OUTFITS?!?! v_v

[@ClassicCo-op]

I always wanted to try the four player mode when I was a kid but couldn’t ever get all the passes! Is there a cheat or something to unlock this feature an easier way?

[@n64glennplant]

Yes there’s also a patched rom file now which makes it available as a standard feature

[@MegaCaza1]

Never knew about this game, that's why I really love this channel, except that "OK" flashing is really of putting in this game.

[@n64glennplant]

you dont really notice it when playing if that helps

[@Monsterinabox89898]

Goemon for smash!

[@n64glennplant]

that would be mega

[@Monsterinabox89898]

Giant robot as a final smash? yes please!

[@anonconspicuous6910]

Best 2.5D platformer!

[@n64glennplant]

I think so too, much more in depth than Yoshi or Kirby

[@claytonmaddrey6950]

This game was the bees knees on my life the remake most likely be legendary

[@n64glennplant]

That would be amazing right

[@n64glennplant]

Will try to soon 👍

Speaking from the future, he has now, and it's a corker!

[@gustavocve1779]

I was a big fan of mystical ninja goemon back in the day, but i learned about the sequel just ten years later when i started collecting for the n64. I got a bit disapointed the sequel wasn't in 3D though, not gonna lie. But the game is amazing noneless.

[@n64glennplant]

We’re still waiting fir a proper 3D one as the ps2 reboot was horrible
