Lammy has the most realistic way of speaking. All the other characters speak like over excited videogame characters (crazy, I know) but Lammy just sounds like a regular girl. Something about that makes her a much more endearing character

[@Tomoo1991]

It's bizarre that this machine was never even intended to leave Japan too. If it wasn't for the person who grabbed one of these cabinets we'd probably NEVER have gotten to see any of this

[@Wendy_O._Koopa]

As I recall, back then, the interviews were short, 20-30 second clips (this was before KZbin) that you could just download in your browser. Like, it would have the question written out, and then "Lammy_Responce1.mov" or whatever the files were called, in whatever format was popular at the time. Like the laptop answer did _not_ lead in to the commercial segment, it just ended. Every single kilobyte in bandwidth counted in those days, and these videos were seriously tiny and optimized. I had them all saved, but then lost them all in a computer crash... :( You see, "colon parenthesis" is what we used to type, because no emojis existed at the time. 🤘🎸👩‍🎤🤘

[@Freqhog]

This is why we need to support preservation. There’s so much previously unseen content here it’s unreal

[@Squeezee114]

It’s insane how much world building Lammy had for the time, especially for how somewhat niche it would end up becoming. Here I was I thinking that the guide books were like the best of the best for learning about the characters and stuff but these cutscenes filled a void in my soul I didn’t even know was there.

[@Don_Porculio]

There was a surprising amount of stuff made for Lammy. For some reason, there's an insane amount of Lammy merchandise. Not only do you have normal stuff like plushies, keychains, clothing, toys. . You also had stuff like shot glasses, alarm clocks, actual guitars, guitar lesson books, and even rings. I always wondered why there was so much merchandise for such a niche game

There's even more than that. The character on Lammy's shirt may be a reference to a character, Stinkabod, from a previous game of Rodney Greenblat's called Dazzeloids: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4OVnGtngZaaiKM

HOLY SHIT Got To Move sounds AMAZING with the mash of Lammy's guitar parts and Parappa's Vocals😭😭

[@DorrieDude]

it's actually got like 3 rendition of the song the one version with parappa on it with louder drums and another with compressed drums with parappa on it and another is from the ost iirc

[@chrisfratz]

Fun fact, the version of got to move that's shown in that music video did get released on an album, the album is called to Make It Sweet by Milkcan. It has arrangements of all the songs from Um Jammer Lammy and they all sound great.

[@AwesomeCoolAyden]

Same! I would love to play this game at home on an emulator!

[@mightyfilm]

It always amazed me that out of the three main characters of this game, the voice actress that went on to be on Broadway (Spamalot, I think) didn't get to do any singing in this franchise. As for this game, that was a lot of great Joe Chin stuff that would otherwise have been lost to time had this game not been preserved. He's the unsung comic relief of this franchise, and he'd only be relegated to a couple scenes here and there in the Parappa game trilogy without these. You have our undying thanks.

[@tylerbarnes972]

Sara Ramirez was also Dr. Calle Torrez on Grey’s Anatomy. They came out as non binary later in life too. It would be interesting if Sara would ever do another Lammy or Parappa project again. It’s sad that Katy’s VA passed away.

The Got to Move video has been posted onto KZbin a long, *long* while ago, but there was no source for it, so people assumed that it was fanmade, because of the more laminated paper look to the characters.

As a big fan of the Parappa series (UJL being my favorite), this is incredible to witness as there's been very little information online regarding this specific version. The commercial with Joe Chin's music store was funny and it was nice to see Rammy on level 1, as I previously heard she was intended to be playable at one point for that stage. Awesome upload!

[@Staruo356]

It's so weird seeing how much Parappa/UJL media existed back in the 90s and early 2000s, especially when I assume a lot of the games' fans (including myself) barely knew about this series until less than 10 years ago

[@ElAntiDiablo2021]

[@bricklock1942]

A couple of things I want to mention: Joe Chin has a lot of “NOW” references, which is pretty much why it’s called “Um Jammer Lammy NOW!” Joe Chin also has a “Continue?” Screen counting down, but once he reaches 2, he says “2 1/2” and “2 1/3”, even though they come after 2, but the joke still fits. The fact that Lammy has her own interview, and that she revealed she: -May have trouble talking to people or looking at them in the eye -Almost often wakes up late -Gets shy often, even in a way she was talking to the camera I have a feeling that people (especially with autism) relate. I wouldn’t say this means she definitely HAS autism, because just because she has symptoms doesn’t mean she has it, but it’s easy to sympathize with her Stages 1, 2, 3: Easy Stages 2, 4, 5: Normal Stages 5, 6, 7: Hard This Japan exclusive arcade mostly also has English subtitles, and American references (Island instead of Hell), which could have been a hit in America (United States, Canada, Bermuda). The tutorial also has the Instrumental to Stage 1, so theoretically, this version may also have the Good rank Instrumentals. And of course, we can’t forget Parappa Stage 1!

Tbh i relate more to lammy than canon autistic represention, is not that they are bad, they just don't connect to me as much as lammy, also i think it would be good to mention the fact she gets more confident when she is doing something of her interest, like playing the guitar or when she is with her close friends, which i think a lot of autistic people can relate to.

Eric Yockey back at it again with another banger. What's he cooking this time? Spoilers ahead! My favorite part's gotta be the interviews.
