NOOOOO

Miss Liss, if you can, please look into the 'Style Savvy' games as well for the DS, especially if you're into fashion!

I LOVEEEE STYLE SAVVY

I remember rage quitting Cook Off… the motion control was killer. I never looked Mama in the face again.

[@yyousei]

That one reviewer that said that it's obviously made for kids and parents is so wrong. I remember one day in elemantary school we had an open day which means we didn't have any classes and because a lot of kids just skipped out they combined us with the other kids and we were allowed to bring our eletronics and this one girl had cooking mama 2 and she couldn't for the life of her do the ice cream recipe without failing. The ice cream recipe, where you just slide the cone and get the scoops on it 😭 She was pretty shocked when I did it for her and got a 100% lmao cooking mama is not an easy game for everyone

[@darkmage5485]

Watching Ichigo struggle in the latter half of the games just made me laugh so much. Imagine everytime as a child your mom made you take out the trash even after you tell her about the cars, crows, etc that are actively trying to kill you

[@RetroHero64]

The only neat fact I know about Cooking Mama is that the 3DS games reuse Cooking Mama 4's splash screen audio, you can even hear them getting cut off on saying four if you listen carefully

[@AwkwardBirb]

The shopping one really captures what it’s like to shop with social anxiety 😂

[@ochi204]

Liss cooking for 1hr while cooking with mama is a combo I didn't know could work so well haha.

[@camillahrendanielsen5960]

You should do a video on the "style savvy/style boutique" games or the "imagine" games (there were way too many of them!) . I feel like the DS was truly a girls girl. It had so many good girly games. "Imagine: fashion designer" was my childood!

[@kiona.t]

Imagine: figure skating was honestly so difficult. Even later on as a teen when I tried to get through the competitions, I still failed 🥹 It's hard to make 3 circles at one time with a lil DS pen

[@crestflames492]

@@kiona.tthat’s why I always made my own custom performances instead of going with the ones the game sets for you - the one with the triangles was the one that I found the easiest to do quickly so I always added it in lmao

[@filiaaut]

The "Imagine" series is a weird one, because it bundles together a lot of games that have nothing to do with each other, aside from being targeted at girls. Some were localisation of preexisting Japanese games, they tended to have 2D art, intricate (and weird) plotlines, and generally were higher on the quality scale of the series. Others were made "in house", I think, they tended to be kind of shitty mini games collections, with rather ugly 3D art and not that much in terms of progression and difficulty scale (many were generally really easy, but sometimes, you'll get a stupidly hard minigame for no reason). I pointed the two ends, but it is a spectrum, there were just so many games, the quality really varied.

[@averya7443]

"I'm hot I don't know anything about this stuff" tea and I'm stealing that phrase lmao

[@arielluva]

the first cooking mama game could definitely be pretty difficult to figure out. i have all gold (except for this stupid recipe that requires you to circle rice but you cant circle too much or too little. hate that step) but it took me forever to figure out some things. like for the spaghetti where you have to saute? when it tells you to add the ketchup, DO NOT ADD IT. keep flipping the pan until you have 1/4 of the time left, and then add the ketchup. if you add it too early, it'll burn no matter how much you keep flipping the pan, so you have to add it in later than it tells you

[@PJElroy]

I have fond memories of this franchise and still say "don't worry Mama will help you!" often. This video was a blast to watch! Thank you! 🍤🥘🥞

[@silberelite337]

Imagine Cooking Mama as a super smash character XD

[@TanisAnnicchiarico]

*Gets Smash Ball* "Don't worry...Mama will help you" *Goes Ultra Instinct* "Help you pass on"

1 hr liss the lass video we are eating again on this fine monday lets go

I'm pretty sure cooking mama is the reason I feel inadequate doing basic tasks

[@xEllieRose]

Tip for peeling eggs, use a spoon! Crack the egg a little, get a spoon, put the pressure towards the shell and go around the egg. Not sure if I explained that well but it's such a time saver and usually the eggs come out nicely :)

[@rainbowbatsuit]

glad to see that somebody else owns the terrifying cooking mama baby plush. i bought it because one looked weird and silly. same reason i bought science papa

[@Balallalalallalallllqieueiqi]

I SCREAM ETERNALLY WHEN LISS UPLOADS

[@hemangchauhan2864]

DS Cooking Mama has some GORGEOUS pixel art

[@Pownchao]

I remember the hight of the Cooking Mama craze. My first DS lite was the lime green one bundled with personal trainer: cooking, and one of the reasons I chose that model was because I wanted a game with my new console, and I thought it was cooking mama or cooking mama adjacent lol. I still have that console, and even had my own fun with the pack in title. Never actually got Cooking Mama on DS, but did play it on my sister's ipod.

[@animeloveer97]

I had dreams of getting that lime green DS lite! Literally woke up with my arms in the air like I was playing a DS 😂

[@Scarylyn14]

I’ve played Cooking Mama Cuisine! I get Apple Arcade included with my phone plan, otherwise I’d never have known it existed 😂 I really enjoyed it, you pick ingredients and it’s a surprise what recipe you create if you’ve never used that ingredient combo before. Every day of the week has different ingredients and recipes, and they included holiday recipes during holiday seasons. I had a bunch of fun with it ❤

[@paulplummer2025]

I still remember getting cooking mama for wii for Christmas and crying for two days straight because it was my dream and I didn’t expect my parents to surprise me with it

[@montanajackson3713]

I played practically every cooking mama game released at the time of my childhood and early teens. My favorite of the regular series is dinner with friends and my favorite spin-off is crafting mama.

[@digifreak90]

16:55 Ah yes, the Kingdom Hearts method of game numbering.

[@mayatanner3587]

I used to love these games. I played them all the time! But all the cooking games were very similar and a lot of the mini games became easy, while a few were nearly impossible to get a perfect score on.

[@Ser_Matticus]

I’m a guy and I enjoyed cooking mama cook off for the Wii, probably inspired my love for cooking.

[@sofiasverdrup6087]

You should try playing all the Papa's games! Like Papa's Freezeria etc.! 😍

[@srah9112]

What a coincidence i was just reminiscing about cooking mama and WOW my fave posts ALL of them??? No way 🥰🥰🥰

[@christyguichard8013]

I’m not ashamed that I learnt how to cook by playing cooking mama games 😅 My real mama just mainly made frozen food so I had to learn from somewhere and some recipes are ingrained in my head with the hands doing the thing and that’s how I remember how to do it 😂

[@Legostarwarslover98]

I hope mama made it to the pink pony club after all these years… 🫶

[@Why_am_I_even_here_]

I remember playing gardening mama on my DS and being so pissed off that I couldn't shoot the sapling on the pot

[@KingKuron_]

Wasn't one of the big talking points about Cookstar that it was causing severe heating issues for the Switch? I remember that was how rumors about bitcoin/cryptomining started for the game.

[@r-3-g502]

I love the style of this video and the editing was amazing! Fantastic work :)

[@siguanaba.a]

not afraid to admit i played every single one of these as a kid… obsession is an understatement

I can't believe I watched roughly two hours of someone playing the WHOLE Cooking Mama franchise (yes I did watch the spin-offs video, and I actually watch it before this one lol). Honestly, it was ALL worth it. I loved the humor!

[@saintsnakech]

OH YES!! I’ve always been so curious about the Cooking Mama games, and even since I found your channel, I’ve been hoping you’d cover them one day and see your takes on them! Thank you Liss ✌🏻✨

I had 20 bucks to spend and went into a store and they had 2 for 20 on select DS games. Mostly shovelware. I got this and Picross, both were a great discovery

[@peregrinmorrison4410]

I grew up playing science papa because I wasnt huge on the cooking games. I LOVED IT. I have no idea how much of the motion controls holds up, and I know I struggled greatly with the brush scrubbing sections. I'd kill to see you try it out. They aparently had copyrighted "Math Papa" too, but I've no clue if they ended up making that.

because they are really freaking good, I love them

[@dejaalston8672]

Cooking Mama (2006-2022) is one of the most greatest video games of all time. It was something new, fresh, unique, inventive, stylish, cool, edgy, hip, and updated such as the concept and theme such as the spin-offs. It was decent. To this day I still play it and I consider it a classic. It never gets old.😍😎💯👍🏻

[@flightlessfinch931]

i BEG u to do the apple arcade game and knock offs as a video!!! this was so nostalgic

[@bookishannie333]

Liss, I would love to see you play games in the Papa's-verse! Papa's Freezeria, Bakeria, Scooperia, etc...

[@CopperFireFox]

I took a while to get round to watching thus because it came out within 24 hours of the Burback brothers video on cooking mama, but im glad i did

[@RadonRyan]

The problem that every video game franchise faces, from the most casual to the most hardcore, is how much variance to include between entries. Too much variance and fans complain that the series has lost its way/forgotten its roots, and to little variance and fans complain that they're all samey. The worst part is there's no way to please everyone, so the "sweet spot" is simply the one that upsets the fewest fans. I've never played a Cooking Mama game before, but it sounds like they decided to err on the side of caution and go for a low variance approach, at least with the mainline titles. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk 😅

[@nitrospidergaming7394]

1:14 I'm sorry but if part of the cooking mama's target audience is my grandma, they better be paying for her hospital visit if she's expected to do that.

[@minimcwitch]

So much nostalgia with the original Cooking Mama and Cooking Mama 2 🥹 Might have to dig out my DS again!

[@stockson3267]

I loved cooking mama! I remember playing crafting mama so vividly I loved that one (not as much as I love your videos ofc)

Im glad mamas friends got names over time. Otherwise i could see tons of the I have English friends & African Friends too" memes and they would be hilarious ngl

[@KaseyWithers]

I saw the issues you were having with this vid on Twitter, seems like cooking mama wanted you to WORK for this vid just like she worked in each of these games. Edit after watching: even though a lot of these microphone features seem annoying nowadays (ex: blowing on the mic to cool it down, using voice prompts in nintendogs, etc.) it's actually really cool to see how the game developers tried their best to incorporate all features of the DS into gameplay. Even modern consoles with mics don't do that nowadays

[@SupermythicalDS]

played enough cooking mama recipes for this to be in my recommendations

[@YounesYounes-j5r]
