Hugo The Troll And His AWFUL PlayStation Games

[@HoroJoga]

Hugo was such a hit in Brazil around 1996/1997 I believe. I was a kid and phone calls were SO EXPENSIVE back in that time that my dad used to lock the phone during the show so I wouldn't call it lol. The first PS1 game had the same minigames as the tv show, but of course it didn't have the same portuguese dub as the show unfortunately. And the sad thing about this is that they licensed the character to some casino bullshit and I keep getting ads of it.

[@InsidiousOne]

Hugo was my first game for PS1. I was a big fan of a show as a kid, and I got PS1 with Hugo 1 and 2 to satisfy my dream of playing Hugo myself. Sure, I didn't play much Hugo once I got into some better games, but that was a fine starting point

[@TheJoeyKnoxville]

I have so much nostalgia for Hugo. I'm from Denmark and I remember Hugo was everywhere back in the day. I hold the old classic mini-games from the 90s so dear to my heart. But I remember I also had a cassette tape with songs sung by Hugo, a board game, clothing, a figure and plushies of Hugo and his wife. Hugo was indeed quite popular back then! I know that a Danish animation studio, called "Einstein Film", was set to make a feature film starring Hugo in 2012. Idk if it got cancelled or if it's just on hold. Can't find anything about it. I hope the little troll will get a proper comeback some day.

[@Pandsu]

I remember the TV show and how bad most callers seemed at the most simple of video games. I even called a few times myself because I thought I could absolutely do better (but I never made it through). Of course, at the time, I didn't realize how horrible the delay must have been between a button press and what you saw on screen. That must've been a quite shocking realization right then and there on the spot and definitely would ramp up the difficulty significantly. That and the nerves of knowing you're being watched by thou-... hundreds... maybe even tens of people and harshly judged by dickheads like me and knowing you have just one shot do not miss your chance, Hugo, this opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo

[@HannuPulli]

The TV show's host was the best part 😅 In Finland we also had a show where CD-I games were controlled remotely over phone. That was a total disaster in every way...

[@lasskinn474]

hey now vito was great! it was like youtube, some rubber dude making people play the crappy cd-i games with 1 button at a time phone beep controls. and if you won the episode I think you got a cdi? what a kick on the balls, good luck selling it on the keltainen-porssi to buy something one would want. Great weekend tv-content, up there with remonttireiska giving tiling instructions on a sunday morning

@@lasskinn474 Controlling CD-i over the phone had so much lag that you'd have to predict your keypresses seconds ahead.

[@lasskinn474]

@@HannuPulli I think that was the secret of the successful attempts at it, helped by that the games were mostly FMV games with little or zero randomization, so you could actually kinda do that after watching the show.

I remember watching this as a kid in Portugal. Didn't know they had the games in home consoles. Thanks for letting me know.

[@captainnintendo]

**Looks onto my shelf of games** Say... can it be true that Hugo 1 and 2 are the only PS1 games to actually have a logo on its spine rather than the boring white text all the other games have? I actually grew up in Denmark and I also remember Hugo being freakin' huge over here. It was part of this grown-up show where they would have guests, talk about news, have bands play, and do other stuff but the only thing I really cared about was watching Hugo. In fact, I don't remember it ever being anything but adults who called in to play. Hugo would later appear on some kids programming in the morning on other channels and here it would, in fact, be kids calling in but on the original show, it was mainly adults. The score you got would reflect the amount of money you'd actually win. Could go as far as 15,000DKK which I suppose must've been 7- 9,000USD. as well as them usually throwing some other swag your way. Not bad for an experimental Amiga game. The most iconic game was probably the one where Hugo had to navigate through a mine/labyrinth and then make his way over a long bridge full of holes... Which strangely are all absent from the PS1 ports. The coolest thing I remember about Hugo tho was that he appeared in an episode of one of our Daily TV Advent Calendars during Christmas where one of the elves accidentally managed to magic his girlfriend into a computer where he then had to go in after her and play through the Hugo game along with Hugo himself. It was really crazy to me as a kid to see something like this and I kinda wish they had made a Christmas edition of the game based on that episode. Should you want to check out the interesting part of the episode, you can check it out here kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIfUqWprq9usY7c Don't mind that weirdly superimposed kid, that isn't part of the video and I'm not sure what it's about. I actually remember there being a predecessor to Hugo games which focused on the same type of telephone technology where you could call in. I believe it was made by Silverrock Studio as well. He was called Super Oswald. Although, Hugo is probably the closest Denmark has to a game mascot... If you don't count Hitman.

[@Phantom.Gaming64]

Hugo was really popular here in Finland during the 90's. Any time the show would be on TV, you bet I was gonna watch it. What made it memorable for me was the Finnish Hugo's voice actor Harri Hyttinen and his comments when something happened in the game. I got the first two Hugo PS-One games and played them a lot.

[@krisu0100]

Yeah, the Finnish Hugo actor is so much better. Rare case where I prefer the Finnish version over the English version.

[@Poki3]

I actually managed to call into one of these shows in Poland. To say that there was input lag would be a grave understatement. Unsurprisingly, TV shows were not made with latency in mind. I imagine people's mileage here varies wildly, but I would have less latency trying to just scream out my controls till someone in the studio heard me. So if you remember anyone doing incredibly poorly, this is likely why.

[@lpoki8897]

It's wild seeing something you vaguely remember from your childhood has become an international thing.

hugo was the personification of my memories living in germany I thought he was an exclusive there (or at least had a disproportionately major following like donald duck) but apparently I am mistaken

Finally someone exposes the lies and crimes of Hiúdaí/Hugo

[@InsidiousOne]

The English Hugo VA sounds eerily similar to Chris Chan

[@andersdenkend]

Oh man, Hugo. I remember it from TV and wasn't even too interested in watching it on TV. But one day someone gave me pirates copies of the Amiga version and my mind was blown. "The TV game ported to my Amiga?! Whooaaaa!". And say what you will about the gameplay, I always appreciated the 2D pixel art as well as the crazy amount of parallax scrolling. Sections like that mountain hopping looked pretty rad as well with all that sprite scaling going on. Oh and it featured a ton of speech, which amazed me quite a bit as well, heh. Tbh, the PSone ports do look pretty god actually and that Hugo 2 has a pretty nifty synth score!

[@FakYuhGoogel]

Thank you for your sacrifice, now we don't have to play those Hugo games ever

[@RWSCOTT]

1) Obviously, brilliant video. 👍 2) 1:40- we had a precursor to this in NY in the early 80s.. weekday afternoons, callers to WPIX could "play" Intellivision games by saying "Pix" to activate a button press.. tho most times the kids would just scream/spam it, going pix!pix!pix!pix!pix!pix! etc.. usually getting no score at all. Ah, memories...

[@SAMwise-ps6zo]

i remember hugo being an interactive phone game on itvs Saturday show 'whats up doc' in 1992/3 and I also remember being baffled as to why the hugo game got released on the ps1 5 years after the fact...... .......i had NO idea that this character has had the shelf life and media phenomenon that it has had over the last 30 years..... this genuinely frightens me.....😂

[@loonytunescrazy]

[@simsdas4]

Hugo persisted on the PS2. There's even a dang car combat game.

[@IC-xk4gi]

Edit: Hugo in english sounds suspiciously like chris chan. Hugo in Argentina was kind of a big deal, not as big as in Ireland by a long shot, but it had it's own show with phone gameplay and all, "A jugar con Hugo" (Let's play with Hugo) with it's own cute host and all. Ah, memories

[@lasskinn474]

I think the cute host was part of the concept really. our country didn't have a studio audience, the show was done with pennies but I think it got very good viewcounts regardless.

In the late 80's early 90's in the UK we had a phone in game for a Saturday Morning kids show called Motormouth. The game was Magic Pockets by the Bitmap Brothers, which was later released for the Amiga and ST. Suffice to say it's not an amazing game, but far greater than Hugo's outings lol =)

Damn the Hugo you guys had sounds so dull. Very often in kids media we had really poor quality for voice acting (outside for disney who had enough money to actually invest into professionals) but the Hugo we got was cracking with jokes and had more personality. Like... the show ran what.. 20 years ago? And people STILL are sometimes repeating some of the lines Hugo spit at us. Edit: 10:22 for example i think was badly translated in english. Hugo means that the fish (or player) thought he was mistaken for bait (which at least here we often use earthworms on hooks).

[@Geno746]

I hope for a follow up video as I need to know what else happens in the Hugo saga and why that game is called Agent Hugo Lemon Twist.

We had a Hugo show back in Argentina, looked really laggy though... there was also a Hugo show in Chile, and it looked just as laggy. i saw the ps1 game bsck in the day, but dodged that bullet. The advantage of being friends with the guy that runs the videogames shop.

[@RichardCraig]

Man it would have been so cool to have the equivalent for the Nick Arcade games that were made by Psygnosis. They were already running on the Amiga, should've been easy enough to make a home version for SNES or Gen/MD. I also remember Nickelodeon doing a few special events where you played a game live over the phone, but it was always existing games. I specifically remember once the game was Cool Spot on SNES, and nobody could manage it with the laggy phone controls as well as the broadcast delay of live TV (I'm not sure if there were different rules in UK vs US for live TV, I think our live TV requires a specific time delay so that if anything bad happens the feed can be cut seconds before it actually broadcasts).

[@deterlanglytone]

TG4 just have no archives of their older shows available. Doesn't matter if they produced it wholly, it doesn't matter if they're just dubbing Irish Langauage versions of some cartoon, like Teen Titans or Avatar the Last Airbender. If they have it, they're not showing it to any of us. I'm told that they've actually given out footage to some folk that email them. But I've not a request even so much as answered. Side note, it's probably just from a mix of watching little of the channel as a child, though I watched more than a bit given we only had six channels when I was a child, but never have I heard someone before you call the channel TG Four. I've only heard people call it TG Ceathair.

[@SeanSeanson]

they 100% have an archive of this stuff, wether they've converted everything to digital or not thats another story but it's there somewhere. theres plenty of legal and copyright reasons preventing them from just giving it out to the public mind you, so unless you know somebody on the inside the chances of getting that stuff out and onto the net is slim. Also I'm fully aware the majoirty of my audience for this video is people in north and south america so stating Ceathair = 4 is just to not confuse the poor folks looking for a video about playstation games. Most people I know still refer to it as TnaG

Of all 6 Hugo games released on PS1, only The Evil Mirror seems to have released in the US, where I live. And we never got any of the PS2 games onward either.

[@shnick1990]

@@SeanSeanson Jeez.😧 Well, at least with the magic of emulation (and some official rereleases), Europeans can now finally experience a bunch of the good games (and a bunch of trash) that weirdly skipped PAL regions but went to America and Japan.

I remember this troll from a long running kids TV show (Sweden) where they had to play using the buttons on the phone with, apparently, delay... It sucked to watch as well. Had a PC version of it later. Apparently they could just mix and match these shitty games because I remember the snowboard and climb the mountain but there were others (so the PS1 games I guess weren't just ported). COULD play it on a small emulation handheld nowadays I guess but, unless it's optional (?), not having the annoying Swedish voice takes away ALL of the charm for me though: "Kom igen kompis!

The emo scene was very american/UK focused over here, not a lot of home grown emo bands back when I in the scene it was mostly metal/metalcore/math rock etc. and even then very few Irish bands last beyoned a few years. I'd say check out Enemies/Cast of Cheers/Adebsi Shank/Republic of Loose/Fight Like Apes to get an idea of the vibes at the time.

[@infernomance]

Were these sold at full price? I think a tiny shred of sympathy could be mustered for the games if they're meant to be evocative of ZX Spectrum/C64/Amiga budget Euro games; insanely cheap, short/questionable quality/both. Less competitive with full-length games, closer to an impulse buy by the checkout line. Some of those games were as cheap as 2 pounds. With that perspective these would be a little more permissible; maybe you've finished Crash Bandicoot, but you'd like to have more Crash, and here's a $10 Crash clone you get along with the groceries.
