Daniel Ibbertson You forgot to mention that on JSR DC you could download .JPGs via the DC browser and use them as your tags in-game! :D Damn I miss the PS1/DC era!

[@Alianger]

Very impressed by how frequently you put out such lengthy and high quality vids Daniel.

[@untamedpandasweg8986]

I figured out what Patreon should do. They should go back to 10% for $250 or less donations, and have a gradient system where they take 1% less per $50 from $250 to $500, and it stays at 5% from there onward. This would incentivize Patrons to donate more and fix the current situation. Please copy/paste and share this. :) -UntamedPandaSweg *Twitter TL;DR Version* Patreon should go back to 10% for $250 or less donations, and have a bracket system where they take 1% less per $50 from $250 to $500.

What about Ill Bleed on the dreamcast

[@blackphoenix77]

I hate that Sega is letting so many of their IP's sit dormant and doing nothing but churning out one Sonic game after another.

[@OutlawMantis]

+referral madness They aren't Sega franchises. The reason why Sega isn't making new franchises or returning to dormant ones is the same reason Nintendo does this. They know they don't need to innovate anymore as their fanbase will just gobble up whatever they release, regardless of its quality. (I'm looking at you, Sega.) It's simply easier to make Zelda 20 or Sonic 30.

[@carlbrown1000]

blackphoenix77 they recently turned down a third JSR game the other month. They people trying to make the sequel called it Jet Set Radio Generations I believe.

[@carlbrown1000]

Mantis: Mega Outlaw Star Fan so far it seems like Nintendo learned their reason, because ever since the switch came out, they bringing back all the games people asked for. And so far they seem to be climbing back up in the compatetion

[@nicolassieh6799]

what about EARTHBOUND?

[@TheGingerburger]

Even though Sega aren't what they used to be, if they went back to the well of IPs that they haven't touched since forever they could dominate the 3rd party space

[@TheIndulged1]

I still play Jet set Radio today a wife's younger brother had not heard of it and thought it was a new game!, so obviously the graphics held up, sadly I didn't age as well over the years.

[@Feelin_DanDy]

Even though it's called Jet Grind Radio here in the states, I still call it Jet Set Radio. It's the proper name and sounds much better. I love these games and their soundtracks!

[@StevenCusic]

Feelin' DanDy yea but we get our grind goin in the USA lmao

[@Eternal-pj8zh]

It's Jet Grind Radio because you grind

[@paranormalzen]

Jet Set Radio is the perfect balance between style and substance. I would be extremely pleased to see a sequel one day.

[@EmilXOM]

Whoever performed as Gum at that E3 event had some sweet moves.

[@carlbrown1000]

EmilXOM sweet ass too.

[@EmilXOM]

Definitely

[@houstonjoker3836]

Someone yelled “you suck”

[@RetroGamePlayers]

The SEGA Dreamcast was such an amazing system, so many awesome games. 9-9-99 best launch date in history!

[@twmanga]

One of only 2 systems I bought day one (2nd one was the PS4). Picked it up at 7AM, went straight to work. When that was done, went home & played it all night until like 3AM (Sonic, Ready 2 Rumble Boxing, NFL 2K & Soul Calibur). Still have it and all the games I bought (I bought this as soon as it came out).

[@untamedpandasweg8986]

I wonder what's going to be made or released in the future on 9-9-2999. Let's hope it has anything to do with Music, at least 1 form of non-motorized personal transportation, and Artistic expression. And that they realize JSR is anywhere near similar to what would theoretically being released. Because only Human's can conceptualize such things. No other life forms, within our current scientific understanding of reality, can.

[@yukatoshi]

Retro Game Players Had it had as much RAM as the NAOMI arcade board, a DVD-Drive, and a second analogue stick that gen may have been very different.

[@Golfbob]

I like 11/11/11

[@abemontes2518]

I bought the system on launch day 9/9/99 with a copy of Blue Stinger. At that time I worked at Babbages or what became later as GameStop. The Dreamcast was such an awesome console. I played the heck out of Jet Set Radio and Crazy Taxi too, great games.

[@btr3k]

Small note on "Tokyo-to" - that is also what real life Tokyo is called in Japan, and covers "Tokyo prefecture", one of 47 prefectures of Japan. So, that would be everything inside the official borders of Tokyo, versus just referring to the city. So, Tokyo-to is a real place, but JSR is just a fictionalized version of Tokyo-to. All clear? No? Well, I tried.

[@Deniii4000]

I was thinking the same when I saw it. Glad someone else noticed it.

[@SinceSpacies]

Understand! Understand! Understand! Understand! Understand! Understand the concept of Slopes Game Room!

[@MrSkysenGames]

First game was great. Second game was a well polished symbol of skating funk. But good _lord_ some of the challenges in it...

[@UpheavaI]

Mr Skysen Games yeah but they showed your true passion for 100%

[@mikeyder344]

Thank you so much for making this. These two games are what inspired me to learn how to skate, and how to dj. Hideki Naganuma is my soul animal :D

[@DeeEfSea]

Your.. Sweet Soul Brother..?

[@joeyparkhill8751]

Even if the games were released brand new in 2018 the graphics would still be up-to-date

[@Hotobu]

Joey Parkhill False. Stop lionizing the past because of nostalgia

[@joeyparkhill8751]

What makes you think that?

[@charlescampuz5812]

Hotobu It’s not really nostalgia, the graphics held up extremely well for its time.

[@Hotobu]

Proving once again that people don't bother to think and comprehend before they reply, and just feel like they need to say something: "graphics held up extremely well *for its time* " ... hmmm if you have to qualify what you said with "for its time" and its time was almost 2 decades ago then they aren't really "up-to-date" are they?

[@charlescampuz5812]

Hotobu Talk about far-fetched. You must be desperate.

[@SuaveBeatschannel]

So many hours spent in this game! I loved every single moment of it.

[@xWindreaderx]

Would you ever consider doing a TimeSplitters video? That series was super good and has such an interesting history!

[@carlbrown1000]

That Guy oh my God yes, Time splitters perfect future is the best co-op game in the history of co-op games ever.

[@uco.7303]

This game was amazing

[@Monsterism]

My favourite Dreamcast game made and one of my top 5 games ever played. Thanks Dan

[@BryanRollinsTV]

Couldn't click this fast enough. JSR is probably my favorite game. Bought it first day on the DC and i own it on every platform, even both iOS and Android. I only wish it had two player. That woulda been awesome.

[@StevenCusic]

Bryan Rollins yes she is

[@BryanRollinsTV]

on my device, yes. never deleted it.

[@carlbrown1000]

Bryan Rollins I played JSRF with all my cousins on 4 player mode, and the races got insane and personal when somebody got killed.

[@carlbrown1000]

Bryan Rollins it should always be in your download history forever if you do delete it. At least for the iPhone version. Because I have like 40 rare games I always download back on every new iPhone I get.

[@MrLondonGo]

"I think we're in fact getting a little ahead of ourselves.. so let's go back to the beginning!"

[@RMCRetro]

Such a unique style to this game. Those early cell shaded games just oozed cool.

[@turbogear7776]

I think Sunset Overdrive is the last big Jet Grind styled title to release. I kinda see it as part of the same series in many ways.

[@Spectralhyena]

I really hope they re(re)release these games for Nintendo switch. just becuase I love the switch. the Nintendo switch honesty feels like something Sega would have made hardware wise and a bit of the software.

[@RadikAlice]

Rik Riggs If anything, Splatoon is the spiritual child of Jet Set Radio

[@kensukefan47]

It's perfect for the Switch

[@Spectralhyena]

Sharluker I’m not sure but thanks for the tip, haven’t been to the Eshop in quite a long time and I already have a HUGE list of games I want to buy when I can. Damon ex machina actually looks pretty cool now that it has its own controller for the game. They look pretty sick and it kinda reminds me of a simplified steel battalion.

[@sharlurker159]

Corn pop The bad dude just checked yea this game has been on switch for awhile now check online or on KZbin

[@Spectralhyena]

Sharluker that’s about the time since I’ve been on the Eshop. I know they also re-released Star Wars pod racer which is a damn good racing game regardless of the source material.

[@Fnatic2010]

Yayyy Jet Set Radio. Was going to sleep when i saw this new video :3

[@slopesgameroom]

Will you stop playing with that radio of yours!

[@Fnatic2010]

Daniel Ibbertson btw what do you think of panzer dragoon series? Do you plan to make video on them in the future?

[@HorribleOracle]

DJSlopes I just want to say a quick thanks, your content gives me everything I crave. Good Job buddy.

[@carlbrown1000]

Well I'm glad I got both the HD remake and the original sequel for the Xbox. I hope fans drill it through sega's head for a 3 sequel they rejected like a month or so ago.

[@obin8910]

Your channel is awesome. First time I have subscribed to anything that wasn't a favour to a friend. Never stop. I can map my whole existence through the games I played (1982 baby) ✌

[@blacklightaura6777]

No console ever got my heart again like the Dreamcast. The games were just so aesthetic and creative. I can remember my first times seeing the games as a kid and where I was!! So unique.

[@GTV-Japan]

Amazing vid! The bar was set high with this one! And it’s an enjoyable series as well

[@Omegamario]

Awesome vid Slopes on one of my favourite ever Dreamcast games. As always you delivered a great video dude and gave me some new facts about the game so thank you. Also 6:52 for the Larry head, don't say I didn't catch that haha :P

[@AdventureMaster18]

I just started binging your videos and they're fantastic! You've got a new subscriber!

[@terribletelevision6980]

Wonderful video as always mate! Jet Set is such a fantastic series.

[@BlastProcessing]

You really outdid yourself with this video mate :) great job! I'll always, always be begging Sega for another JSR

[@RPGFReeKZ]

Hey dude, good job, so good in fact that Hideki Naganuma shared it. Anyway, I'll just be here waiting for Jsr 3 cause I still have faith.

[@JingyJingJing]

Jet Set Radio was a real gem, a wildstyle graffiti hip hop punk skater madness with a banging soundtrack to back it.

[@Infindox]

Well that explains why Yakuza games also have some pretty kick-ass music in them. Good video! This was definitely one of my favorites growing up with a DC and I still enjoy picking it up every once in awhile. We need another one!!

[@aztrix364]

Fantastic video! Loved every second. Subbed.

[@KrashyKharma]

This is basically a word for word recitation of the documentary you get if you buy the HD remake on Steam Granted, you went through the trouble of putting it in english, so cheers for that.

[@chamchamtrigger]

I will never forget playing JSRF. It was about a year after playing the original (Japanese version), and I had finally saved enough money to get an Xbox. My younger brother gave me his savings to buy JSRF (he demanded it be that game, and that game only). When we booted the game up the opening blew us away. The opening for JSR was incredible, but seeing JSRF knowing the opening to the first game enhanced it that much more. It was months before hooking up the PS2 after that.

[@punkydudester3]

These games need to be remastered for the Nintendo switch with a physical release! I would buy these.

[@babosayshi]

What an amazing video! Super well done and informative.

[@jonspreadthedread]

Yes! So happy you did this!

[@colonelsandwich641]

rock that sheet homie

[@OwtDaftUK]

I noticed Guru Larry in there 6:50

[@Lainbowie]

Amazing work as always, covering literally everything. And you really should play Yakuza, there are TONS of Sega references that will make you smile.

[@ceneblock]

Personally I would have put Crazy Taxi in that list of four titles you at at the beginning instead of Samba de Amigo. Here in the States, if there was *ever* a demo Dream Cast, then it had either Sonic Adventure or Crazy Taxi.

[@juac00ck28]

Samba De Amigo is a great title

[@ceneblock]

Javetax 1 I'm not saying if it was or wasn't a great game, all I'm saying is from my experience is that Crazy Taxi was demoed and a game "everyone owned" than Samba de Amigo.

[@drunkensailor112]

ce neblock you must've never played samba de amigo with maracas.

[@ceneblock]

Nick Armitt must have missed where I demanded where he adjust his content to fit *my* needs. I shared my experiences. That's all I did, meanwhile you get all huffy because I'm not a Britton. Knock off the bull shit superiority complex and learn to accept people have different backgrounds and perspectives.

[@QGmonkey64]

How come no mention of Ollie King, an arcade game by the same team in the same style done after JSRF?

[@EmilXOM]

Because it's not a JSR game.

[@QGmonkey64]

But also has direct lineage and ties to JSR games. More so then Yakuza that was brought up multiple times.

[@MiSheRu682]

Awesome video, as usual! 👍🏾👌🏽

[@iconiclocal9279]

i used to have sega superstars tennis and I was stuck on the jet set radio minigame. i played it for a whole month until I beat it and now the song 'I'm trying to get to sleep' makes me cry

[@Derpplup]

I can't thing that far back seeing how I was born in September of 99 so I'm sure the world would implode If I tried

[@DanaTheInsane]

Fine, I'm 1000 years old. Rub it in........

[@MiG-21bisFishbedL]

Even in the US where it was released as Jet Grind Radio, we call it Jet Set more often than not.

[@TheChestnutBowl]

Great video man, thanks from another Classic Sega fan. Hope to see a Panzer Dragoon complete series someday.

[@doctorstrange7768]

You have no idea how big my love is for this game.

[@DodderingOldMan]

I haven't played these games in well over a decade, but I still listen to the soundtracks on a regular basis.

[@purodeathcore]

the battle against the noise tanks is still one of the most intense boss levels I've ever encountered personally jesus christ it took me forever to beat that shit

[@davidbermudez7704]

Beautiful pieces in Jet Grind Radio

[@6ch6ris6]

JSFR is one of my favourite games of all time. the soundtrack of both jsr games are always on my playlist

[@Alpenmilch]

Yakuza was a fantastic hidden gem during the ps2 and ps3 generation I'm glad that Yakuza 0 and now Kiwami got that much attention outside of Japan. I really recommend the main Yakuza games for me it's the successor of the Shenmue series

[@luisdramos4532]

Another Great Job!!

[@akaimizu1]

Jet set radio wasn’t just a cel shaded game, it was the game that effectively Started the Cel-shaded graphical style. Before that game released in Japan, it was not only one of the first fully 3d cel-shaded games, it was the only one, at the time. Between that and the styled atmosphere (which looks like it could’ve been made by the same folks who made the movie “The Wiz”), and the music.. you can see traces of its influence from games like Windwaker, all the way to Splatoon. Not to forget “The World Ends With You”.

[@josphok4142]

mate u are amazing ,great video keepup

[@Prophet6000]

Jsr is one favorite franchises great video.

[@devinweathers7520]

my word these Japan commercials are fucking fun and thanks I want find those

[@matt4193]

Damn you Daniel! Now I cannot think of anything besides six finger Beat!

[@JSRFModCentral]

23:36 which JSR is Yakuza canon to though? Og or future?

[@KevinRodriguez-cm7uh]

I grew up with this game, my and my buddy would beat it daily....yea back when we used the dreamcast to look at pics of nude celebs lmao

[@Thespokenone]

So glad I kept my copy of jet set radio future! Now I'm just pray they make a hd remake or port it to the xbox one!!

[@evertonc1448]

Jet Set Radio Future is so much better than the original, imo. It's much more complex and have so much more things to do. Very nice.

[@DintheAbary]

not sure if this was available on the DC version due to only having one stick but on the more recent ports you can control the camera with the right stick.

[@deslardesslok]

Just got the CD soundtrack for this game in the mail today at 3:59p.m. and it's the "Jet Set Radio Original Sound Tracks" CD and I'm listening to it while watching this! 7:29p.m. 10/22/2024

[@Deniz_50]

I cant wait to see your complete history of yakuza xD take your time though and enjoy it!

[@AprilsMoon92]

Jet set radio future is one of my favorite games of all time! I'm still hoping jet set radio 3 gets released some day

[@strain42]

Speaking of future Sega Series, do you plan on tackling Toejam and Earl once the new game comes out?

[@brerkris]

This is what I wanted! 💜💜💜

[@sonnybrown4758]

I think the biggest problem with JSRF is that it doesn't pop off the screen the same way the original did. The colors aren't as vibrant and everything kind of bleeds together. That look is more consistent with the xbox hardware, but that feeling you get with the original just isn't there. I know a lot of people like that game, but JGR was on a different level. People that played that game LOVED it. It's just so special.

[@leonardokrause1959]

I love your videos man! Can you consider doing a MediEvil Complete history until now, cuz of the remake announced? Keep it up mate!

[@Bieblism]

@Daniel Ibbertson you never brought up the "Jet Set Radio: Evolution" concept which was scrapped.

[@gawdahm1964]

The dreamcast kicked serious ass. JSR, Shenmue, Sonic, Power Stone, Crazy Taxi, Space Channel 5, Samba de amigo, ready 2 rumble, skies of arcadia, soul calibur. How the fuck did it fail? I was so sad when I heard about it.

[@darktetsuya]

great video! I do have JSR on the Dreamcast and JSRF on XBOX as well as the Steam HD re-release (which I should really pick up again at some point) ... definitely a kickass series of games. You oughta think about doing a followup talking about that cancelled sequel that was in the works (even got some early 3D test models/footage out there on youtube) but of course SEGA said no and went right back to milking Sonic the Hedgehog. :( At least there's always the spiritual successor, Hover!

[@pferreira1983]

It's amazing to think Jet Set Radio made cel shaded graphics popular. Sega were always one step ahead of everybody else.

[@dapharoah2290]

No man, this game seem to be taking some inspiration from the 70's movie The Warriors, with the loud mouth radio DJ's and all of the gangs fighting each other.

[@m4xwellmurd3r]

Sega also released jet set radio onto android but i think its been pulled cause i cant find it on the store (i can find 3rd party sources for it though) played pretty well

[@megacatpenguin8071]

Where is it called jet grind radio?

[@meansquaretech]

I live in the US and always thought it was called Jet Set Radio. I even owned a Dreamcast back when it was new. I have no clue how this happened to me...

[@tenshiochiru8157]

meansquaretech Yeah, I'm US and always said "JSR". That's so weird, I owned the disc and could've sworn it was Set...

[@ArekusaSan]

MegaCatPenguin The U.S. There was a legal issue with the name (I believe Jet Set was copyrighed by another company), so the title was changed last minute. The rest of the game's dialogue wasn't altered, however, just the title.

[@jarreddizzle]

Have you looked at Hover? I like it. Reminds me of JSR a lot.

[@Woodzta]

Hadn't even heard of Jet Grind Radio until now. I'm talking to people in the US who commonly refer to them as JSR and JSRF.

[@ayelosyundox2264]

Misayochi, a guy who worked on JSR and Yakuza says that the games are set in the same world. The first thing that came in to mind when I heard this was Beat accidentally skating into Kazuma Kiryu during a street brawl and promptly getting his ass kicked. you people can make what you will of this fact, but I feel bad for Beat...

[@stuart0wen]

There's a spiritual successor called Hover: Revolt of Gamers, which has the same JSR audio guy working for the soundtrack. It was on Kickstarter a while back, but unfortunately development is kinda slow, I think it's finally out on Steam though

[@cMARVEL360]

Man! Jetset Raido Future was my first time playing the game and man!!!!! I had an awesome game to introduce myself work the Xbox console as a Kidd. Years now. . . I'm 30.... And I do Illegal Street Tagging. Long Story short, k just remembered about this game and I was considering buying it again on The Xbox platform but I wanted to see the difference between Jetset Raido, and Radio Future. I didn't know it was a Sequel. I remember loving the ability to create my own tags in the game. . . And the game itself was really cool! Oddly enough ... This game has had little influence on Tagging ... It was cool as a Kidd to play this game with your fellow tagging friends but eventually you grow out of it if that lifestyle isn't for you. I got back in to this... But it's out of stress release. . . So in the end I wanted to see a history of this game. Thanks for the Upload!!! *DELOW* West Los Angeles

[@MellowGaming]

Love the 2 main Jet Set Radio games. Still got the original Dreamcast one I got back in the olden days. Sold my JSRF though cos it gets a pretty penny and I like to eat and pay bills. I still hold out hopes for JSRF getting a HD re-release. There's a pretty good chance it'll get added to Xbox One backwards compatibility at some point, which may just do.

[@doranbrooks8843]

No... I got homework... I must do it.. but g-gotta watch the video.

[@bananabike279]

Awesome video! I really hope they'll re-release JSRF sometime soon... But hang on, what about the game Ollie King? Isn't that game part of the Jet Set Radio franchise as well?

[@GetBant]

This was one of them game serises that passed me by but looking back on it I love everything about it. I wish I'd been at that E3 unveiling! Its a shame it didn't sell better! also Microsoft did release a 3rd game, its called "Sunset Overdrive" Great Video! Thank you

[@leftblank]

Also Thanks for putting my moment of shame in the video at 18:17!

[@carlbrown1000]

GetBant that's no sequel to me, it might have it's inspiration though. Everybody's been talking about how it's time for a 3rd sequel lately that sega's gonna catch on soon, they already turned it down once, but as soon as they realize we want one, they might rethink it... I hope.

[@slvrcobra1337]

Not even. Sunset is a neat game, but it's whole culture and gameplay focus is different. Plus it's actually _less_ intuitive than the JSR games, you have to press a button every time you want to grind, wallrun, etc.

[@coverchrg]

No mention of Hover? Might not be a direct sequel but it's close enough to be a step brother.

[@feywinterfox9630]

Omg I love this game and part 2!

[@TheGauges420]

Wish I could support you mate, I watch each of your videos like 5 different times if that helps though... I spend too much money on my own bad habits 😂😂😂.

[@TheGauges420]

Just bought what I believe will be the 3 best PSVR games there are, Astro Bot Rescue Mission for 40% off, Moss for 40% off as well, and Wipeout Omega Collection at a whopping 70% off I paid like $6 for the game lol, and man they all look SOO good lol. Hate buying games digitally but sometimes you don't have a choice if you want to play some lol.

[@TheGauges420]

Ha, that first game in 2000 for America came out on my birthday. I don't think I've ever heard of the game lol.

[@christianhighii9882]

Of all the video game vinyls out there, i would buy this game's OST in a heartbeat if they did a release of it.

[@KevinRodriguez-cm7uh]

Awesome!!
