NES Longplay [228] Crash n' the Boys - Street Challenge

[@chadgarrett6947]

This game has to be one of the biggest unknown gems in the nes library. I loved it as a kid.

[@imhere2clownyourass348]

Bro i remember having this game as a kid and damn i sure miss it.

[@ramosluis4075]

have you played the japanese version?, it take place in stadiums instead of street

[@chadgarrett6947]

@@ramosluis4075 I have not, I will have to check that out, tyty

[@0BAYAREA0]

This game was beyond underrated....the multiplayer was perfect for parties. Used to play this all the time with my cousins. The swimming competition IMO was the best mode.

[@Dear1Stupit1Dog]

All the Kunio-kun games are unknown gems

[@monos33]

All Technōs game were amazing and in advance for their time. So many memories here. Great stuff!

[@Krystalmyth]

Francis Lefebvre Shame only two of them made it to the states, not including Double Dragon who they licensed out. But they were both the shit.

[@tayloraprile3851]

By far the best songs on NES are done by Techmo.

[@marquitamoore5396]

OMG!!! I just fell back into my childhood. This game was my LIFE!!!! I need to play this like now. I have tears. NINTENDO RULES!!!!

[@UpIrons777]

I have never heard of this game before. This is a total hidden gem. Looks like a mix of Track and Field with River City Ransom.

[@jcinthemix]

I swear!

[@wes788411]

It is

[@VahanNisanian]

This was originally a Kunio-Kun title called "Bikkuri Nekketsu Shin Kiroku! Harukanaru Kin Medal". Not to mention the game's original ending title screen was a girl on a swing with the words "That's All" written in Japanese. Nekketsu Ice Hockey originally came out shortly before this game.

[@TheCodedtestament]

Playing alone is fun already, but multi-player adds a whole new dimension of enjoyment.You have to give credit to the developers for at least trying to do something different with this title,This game is better than any other "sports competition" on the NES. It is far above the Track & Field series and much, much, MUCH better than the California Games.

[@yuefei8690]

RAQUAAHWA TheCodedtestament , that game was my childhood the japanese version has different background. These location are set on tokyo, osaka, chiba, sapporo, okinawa. My brothers bring me some other famicom games: solomon no kagi, moai-kun, neko ninden teyande, fudou myouou den, doki doki yuenchi.

[@Krystalmyth]

I think this version is better than the JPanese version. The street motif is dope as hell. The urban backdrops for 400 meter and the ghetto pipeline for the swimming event, the heightened posh of the golf course the rich kids obviously had parents let them use, all that style. Only bad thing was the weird characters and removing the Dragon Twins.

[@Robciomixxnfs]

@@Krystalmyth That's what I've been thinking! The street/urban setting made the game way less "official" and way more relatable. Or maybe it's just me who grew up watching Ed, Edd n' Eddy... but my point still stands.

[@palopinto8897]

Never even heard of this game. After looking into it, i see it was not released in Europe. Well, i'm gonna get this, seems like fun!

[@nicholaspamplona648]

Holy cow! I remember my neighbors playing this when I was a kid back in the early 90’s. Never knew what it was called until I stumbled upon it in the ps store. Definitely buying it

[@Uzala]

"Hi, I'm Crash and these are the boys." "Is that girl back there a boy too?" *Girl gives the finger.* "Yes!"

[@chamchamtrigger]

Oh man my childhood. I remember my brothers myself and even my sisters competing in this one. Everything is insanely good in this game. Controls, music, graphics and the mechanics of each event. My brother actually bought this game a few weeks before he bought River City Randsom due to availability. We didn't regret it a bit. Thanks for bringing back such good memories. I always used the Lincoln team.

[@so047]

probably the most advanced nes game out there

[@abymondesir23]

Incredible 😍, I've always love the art style and river ransom game creators technos 4 making these great games

[@valkyriehero6271]

what crash and the boys from scott pilgrim is a refrence to this game

[@samrothman]

this is golden! such nostalgic memory!

[@varunmarwaha8654]

I used to play this game with my bro.. We both enjoyed this game by playing together.. I wish to play this again.. Like old times.. I was master of all the games.. But Goal 3 is my favourite. Still remember the moves even after 20 - 22 years..

[@RichM-x4s]

Been looking for this over 15 years

[@yumih3art]

I use to adore this as a kid. thank youuu ^^

[@dimelo8826]

This is an unknown game that almost didn’t arrive in the US. It was localized and given more of an American touch to appeal to consumers. I think the orignal look was more of the Japanese version double dragon art/characters. This game is part of a series known as Kunio-Kun. Other games from the series are Renegade, Super Dodge Ball, River City Ransom and Nintendo World Cup

[@SA77888]

Wow thats some impressive paralax scrolling like effect 17:44

[@helgenx]

Same thing I thought to myself, even though it's an old game and probably a very small file, for NES, that shit was way too good. I'd love to see those good sprites over and over again.

[@anthonydiaz8123]

one of my all time childhood games! wow!

This game is a gem💎💎💎

[@kendrickcooperofmarshalltx2757]

This and river city ransom are two of my favorite nes titles

[@troyy99]

its interesting how much they adapted this game to US with sprites, backgrounds and translations, yet they didn't notice they already localized kunio's name as "Alex" and now as "Crash".

[@l2ubberl7ucky23]

Omg I was looking for this game for so long!!!!!

[@SeriousBunny.]

Nekketsu forever!

[@delmancefrancis2542]

Crash = Kunio/Alex Crush = Riki/Ryan

I was a beast at this game when I was a kid...now I can't even win the hurdle race and swimming forget about it!

Same here.

[@scoobyr198]

the best nes music for a sports man and that of course my fav as well is mike tysons punch out

[@tonyiliev3788]

such a good game !

[@Kondo87]

Looks like an awesome game.

[@kuolanen]

What amazing graphics this game has. Does it have some graphics chip in the cartridge or just pure nes 8bit power! Has to be one of the nicesest looking nes games.

[@patrickmcloughlin2954]

probably one of the mappers to generate interrupts to allow for the parallax scrolling

[@jessicastarks2669]

Nice music!

[@Azel954]

some really nice backgrounds and scrolling in this game for NES

[@Tominatort69420]

Scott Pilgrim brought me here

[@ihalloway]

first timer here ! now thats a nice Tech title !

[@JagofTroy]

It never came out in English but it still existed in Japan. Since it's been translated, I plan to put longplay the Ice Challenge as well.

Crash Bandicoot n' The Bois: Woah Time

I've literally never heard of this game before in my life, what the hell.

[@dmariots]

Great game it was the last game that I bought for my NES along with mega Man 6. I already had a Sega Genesis at the time. Me and my bro the 1st time we played we thought it was just a sports game you can actually beat all the competitions except the last one w/o attacking.

[@gannicusii4163]

Omg the memories!

[@evanpeartree]

Crash N’ the Boys? Is that that game with Crash? And those boys?

[@jomonday7754]

Where did my comment go? I loved the long race. Those Southside boys were evil! This was a lot of great work. I am proud of you! But, my favorite had to be Slobba the Hut! She was a piece of work. Love you! Mama

[@arielballejo3917]

You can tell me please the controls/Buttons of this game? im tired of get my ass kicked in every match/race/etc... I play this in JNES.

[@adityakashyap4252]

I haven't played this one exactly but I think A+B would give you the jump and "B" while in air let's you do that kick. Ive played other kunio kun no nekketsu games and it was common in pretty much all.

[@dsan558]

So what is this a river city ransom spin-off....will I enjoy it?

[@TheGaboRivers]

This has to be related to another awesome Game called River City Ransom.

[@SirichokC]

At the start the song called Csikos Post plays

[@carlosrandolph8073]

I use to love this shit out this game. Great old school game.😉😊

İ remember beating this game as a kid, now if İ could find a copy and play it again, that would be amazing.

[@rocketprime]

Do you get a different ending if you win as Todd's team?

[@henriqueguedes325]

No, you get no ending at all

[@jacoboabraham2986]

Can somebody make a tutorial for this game, is insanly hard and you cant practice calmly, will apreciate it very much.

[@darkerfalcon3747]

Todo Konosuke is a better father than Mr. Thornley.

[@lastsaiyanleft]

im looking for a game similar to this. I cannot remember if it was for NES or SNES but its like marathon and you can attack other people. the graphics was a bit better and one of the moves is a spinning kick like Ryus hurricane kick in street fighter.

[@KurisuBlaze]

The game you're looking for is probably 'Downtown Nekketsu Koushin Kyoku - Soreyuke Daiundoukai', which was the previous game in the series. (Though in that game or the JP version of this one, neither Todd nor Skip/Slick/Simon actively participated in the events, though Todd was responsible for organizing them. Presumably the guy that ended up in second in the first scene of the intro to this game was Wheels/Turk/Mochizuki.)

[@ZaGoudou]

IS THAT GIRL A BOY TOO

[@JamesJones-hx5hl]

I would like to see the other endings when crash and his team don't win.

[@Krystalmyth]

There are no endings, which is really a shame because they had that cute little opening sequence but they wrapped and shipped it once they finished that. TBH though they did a lot of work modding the game to localize it. It's pretty much a custom rework of the game.

[@attackofthecopyrightbots]

longest intro ever

[@captkool4336]

rented this but could never understand the controls

[@Krystalmyth]

Capt Kool There's only two buttons on the controller... Do you need a tutorial for everything? In the 400 meter for instance tap right to run faster left to go slower. Hit A to bash hurdles and pickup broken boards. Hit A if armed to spin slash. B to jump. Hit B in mid air to spin kick and A to throw weapon. If you get hit slow down so you don't get spin kicked over and over again. Then once behind break boards and throw them at the enemy. Spinkick in the air to counter throws and become invulnerable. Time your throws when their kicks are over. Also down will slide under hurdles, but lowest hurdle will trip you up. You can break boards as you're coming back in from a knock down. Wow in hindsight this game is pretty fucking deep isn't it?

[@starofjustice1]

Ah, boy. I loved how for most of the game they had violent events but they were kinda trying to pretend it was a normal competition by being about things like hurdles and swimming and pole vault, but then at the end they just threw all that shit away and it was like "Fuck it, we're gonna settle this with a good old street fight and just beat the crap out of each other!"

[@Krystalmyth]

starofjustice1 Yeah I like how cheating is a legitimately alright thing to do because the mechanics dictate that cheating will cost you points. So it's your choice. Nobody whines about it. It resolves itself. Oh and that you can win every event but if you fuck up even one of them, you could get Best of the Worst and lose fifteen medals, making it so your team can't have someone sandbagging and letting their captain do All the work. Everyone has to knuckle up. It's great. Real shame this game didn't blow up and they didn't turn it into the franchise they originally wanted to. Crash and the Boys Ice Challenge was never released.

Buying the chomper is so lame...

[@gdbaradit]

JohnACorp782 Yeah, but unless you play with a almost dead character, or the other guy buys the chomper... it's a win garantee, even if you decide to not fight and just run like a lil bitch.

[@gdbaradit]

JohnACorp782 They, lil' timmy, is that the chomper is too OP. But anyway... it was a good game. Made my friends and I punch each other everytime we played, but it was a good game.

[@Krystalmyth]

Giorgio Baradit You got to pay to play. Chompers are expensive. Though they should have been 20 medals minimum. If you're buying all the shit he does in the video you'll get last place every time.

[@Krystalmyth]

If you did well enough to afford it, then its fair game. It's a rich gets richer concept. The kind of thing the Hillers would do. My friends would always get it if they could. It rewards them and makes you more of the underdog at that point. Winning it all after they use Chomper on you in swimming is super satisfying! It's all about standing your ground in the Fighting challenge, and not falling off of the damn rooftops! lol
