The discussion at the end about KZbin videos and rising game prices was a discussion that needed to happen. Thanks for hearing our perspective! Enjoy the video :)

[@The_RadicalOne]

Agreed.

[@Janaquim]

Hey guys. Love your hidden gems videos - thank you :). As for the discussion at the end of the video, I believe some of us might be looking at this the wrong way. You're not the ones driving prices up. The only thing you guys do is let us know about very cool games that we probably wouldn't know about otherwise - you're doing us a service :). If there's someone to blame here is us, when we decide to buy a game even if the price is ludicrous. That's what drives prices up. If re-sellers see they can get away with high prices, they will sell them at those prices. If there's not a market for expensive games, prices will go down. So please keep the hidden games coming. And Reggie, don't worry about this because it's definitely not your fault. :)

[@leebrown8375]

Great video guys. You've opened my eyes to so many new games. On a side note to the whole game prices issue, have you considered doing a video on how new collectors can spot bootleg Gameboy Advance games? Much love all the way from the UK.

[@bradfordboucher1459]

+Radical Reggie good job guys, another cool video

[@danusty]

ways to know are if you can see a two digit number pressed in the game cartridge sticker, look under the cartridge and see a nintendo logo, check the game cartridge sticker and make sure a code that looks like this AGB-AAWJ-JPN when googled actually belongs to the game title, that one belongs to contra hard spirits. those are some ways to tell

[@azhar48]

I love it when metaljesus says"Hn" just to show he's listening or that he is still alive.

yep they're dumb, i know for a fact its not not THIS channel. these guys just love games and all these series have helped a lot of my collections for gamecube, ps2 and ive had great times thanks to metal Jesus. dont worry about those commenters they dont know what're talking about

IRONY: people complain about hidden gem games prices going up; majority of them wouldnt know about them if not for these kinds of videos. Also 2016, ROMs are a thing.

[@---yn4np]

Also copyright and piracy laws are a thing

[@JJclash]

There is nothing wrong with downloading ROMs that you aren't able to buy New. Not everyone can afford a physical copy + a system. However, yes it's piracy if the game is re-released as a digital copy somewhere. (e.g. Virtual Console).

[@GameDjeenie]

ROMS are for people that are not into collecting but want to play the game anyway. Any collector prefer the real deal.

[@JJclash]

I didn't realise that every collector has enough disposable income to be able to buy every single game they desires to play.

[@KeijiMaeda86]

To expand upon my original post.... If you truly really dearly care about collecting the physical game and are a collector. Then price of a game going from $10 to $15 shouldn't matter to you. Because real talk, that's the "price hiking" that is, IF at all, happening. And for the few expensive and rare games, they are usually about $40. For people that just want to play the games because they are fun, using ROMs should not be an issue. Yeah yeah, its "piracy". But honestly devs and publishers only care if you are pirating their new releases. Seeing as they are not even making new copies of these games at all. Buying them used is not profit for the publisher and is seen as just bad to a publisher.

[@FrostArael]

MetalJesus please stop showing Reggie on your videos! you are rising the price on Reggies, as a Reggie collector im outraged! Jk, Reggie is a national treasure and must be shared with the world.

[@MetalJesusRocks]

[@kobepilgrim7284]

I too am a Reggimon: Reginald Monster collector. Reggimon are the champions. For that reason, I just gotta catch all of 'em. Reginald Monster ranching is a tough profession to be in these days, and the rising prices don't help. The prices are really blasting off, again.

[@mattbenware6484]

Great vid

[@tofas0te8]

I emulate my Reggies

[@darthboxOriginal]

don't stop the hidden gems videos! I find them extremely valuable in finding awesome old games I never had a chance to play back in the day

[@AlmightyMalachi3690]

These hidden gem videos are super helpful when stocking up my emulators. The GBA was one of the consoles I didn't get to have growing up so it's nice to have some guidance of where to start outside of the major releases. If you read the comments, take this into consideration, METROID GAMES GUIDE. I love metroid and a lot of others do. What are the quintessential Metroid games to have/own/play? Would love to see a complete set of recommendations across 30+ years of metroid.

[@the-engneer]

That's exactly what I used these videos for as well. I also highly recommend a channel called "That Video Games Show". They cover tons of hidden gems for basically every system

[@deralmighty8011]

I've walked out of stores with stacks of games that were mentioned in these Hidden Gems videos. No seriously, I bought like half of the PS3 "Hidden Gems" at Gamestop in one shot and said to the cashier "Metal Jesus sent me!" I got her cell number too. Didn't lead to anything, but still...I can confirm that these Hidden Gems videos are an absolute good in this world. Like butterscotch Krimpets or Surge soda. Absolute good. If you ask me, people are just complaining for the sake of complaining about something. "Drive the prices up"? If you already have the game, then you have no more need to be emotionally vested in its market. If you have to pay an extra dollar for it after the video comes out, and that dollar means that much to you, then you should have already gotten the game. Otherwise, suck it up, and more importantly, go get laid.

[@megamarsonic]

Amen.

[@GabrielMoreiraHylian]

Amen brodah!

[@lebdiri]

Asterix & Obelisk XXL needed a mention! full 3D graphics and you can even rotate the screen, simply incredible for a gba

[@zmullaney]

Dude your hidden gem/buyers guide videos are so good! Thank you for the insight!

[@guillaumegiroux9425]

I really indeed like the roster you guys brought here. Some of these games I never heard of that looks really nice. I find it refreshing from most usual 'underrated games' videos that still, in the end, shows us games we already know about.

[@TimBrice7]

Man I love your hidden gem videos. You shed light on games that deserve it and help guide me on what to look for too. The price might rise a bit initially but most will probably drop back down. It's all supply and demand at the end of the day.

[@The_RadicalOne]

Exactly

[@brennandye4475]

Hell with the haters. I love these hidden gems videos.

[@ZefTillDeath8878]

I haven't seen any haters yet and I've watched like 10 of these videos and read the comment sections.

[@ghostisblack]

its not hate, its actually truth that the prices do go up, yea its not their fault because they are just sharing cool games, but the prices do go up, that is fact, not fiction.

[@Video-Games-Are-Fun]

[@NathanAltimari]

I immediately loved Reggie welcoming us back, and introducing Metal Jesus. Nice!

[@Slightlyevil]

Another hidden gem for me at least is "Boktai". Loved that game.

[@The_RadicalOne]

Cool game

[@natsyrte]

Great game, but a Capcom Hideo Kojima game is not a hidden gem

[@Slightlyevil]

Big names don't really mean it's well known. It wasn't initially received all that well. I never find it in the wild, and a lot of people I know have never even heard of it. So yeah, hidden gem.

[@Slightlyevil]

That said I'm speaking mostly for the american audience. I know in Japan this game did fairly well.

[@natsyrte]

In Europe I think it was well known, there was a ton of good reviews. However it was horrible to have to play outside (solar captor)... Maybe this influenced the buyers.

[@darknightjoker5528]

gameboy advance was so good back in the old days it came out like 1999 or 2000 best year ever

[@datamanmachine]

2001 ;)

[@figureitoutpunk]

You guys are awesome. Just want to say thank you from a Canadian fan, you and Reggie are very lucky to have a great friendship! All the best, big fan of both your channels. Happy Easter! :)

[@DanofWar101]

The Hidden Gems videos are the reason I subscribed to your channel in the 1st place! People saying that it's your fault if games are going up in price are just angry and need to vent their frustration... And what better way to do it on a keyboard on KZbin lol! I'm always happy to watch your HG videos because it makes me discover games that I didn't know or didn't have the money to buy them back in the day! I think that your Hidden Gems series is by far my best videos to watch! Great video and keep up the good work!

[@Andregrindle]

I understand the position of Metal Jesus and Reggie on these Hidden Gems videos. They've helped me a lot in knowing what some of the games are like for my GBA,PSP and 3DS systems. From my experience,it's stores and online vendors who selfishly raise prices of "retro" games-perhaps after viewing videos like this. But that's just their opportunistic streak talking. Most of these videos by Metal Jesus,Lord Karnage,etc are just trying to recommend good games for people to seek out and play. That's all. So keep up the good work Metal Jesus and Reggie!

[@The_RadicalOne]

You sir, have a good understanding of what we're trying to do. Thank you

[@Andregrindle]

Thanks I appreciate that. For the record,I have some of these games. Actually sought out Lady Sia from one of these videos.

[@schweatty]

vendors and stores are only raising the prices because the demand for these games goes up after these types of videos come out. people are exposed to games they may not have heard of that they think they might like, so they seek them out and buy them. if more people weren't buying them, the prices would not go up. in a free market, the prices don't just go up by themselves. there is no conspiracy among the sellers to raise prices when these videos come out. if you go to a store that does raise prices based on a YT vid, then go to another store or buy on-line. ebay has made it impossible for local price collusion to be possible anymore.

[@Andregrindle]

I really don't think that's true. Even with what you say,it's still the greed and avarice of the given store and vendor that drives the price up. These videos do not directly or indirectly cause games to go up in price. And schweatty perhaps you misunderstood. Obviously no store will raise the price of anything due to a KZbin video specifically. My point was they MAY have seen it. And it MAY influence pricing choices. And it's hard for me to believe that there's a mad throng of people rushing to these places seeking out retro video games in the numbers it would take to influence prices. The local store in my area just decided to change the pricing system of their GBA games. They used to be a lower fixed price. Now they aren't. The reason they changed their policy was because,as I can see behind the counter,they use video game price guides to gauge how much the games are. Online list videos don't seem to influence the sales at all,or the pricing choices. Same goes for a lot of the indie vendors I've been to outside of town. They have collector guides. And they aren't being inundated with customers with attitudes like "we say a specific game on a KZbin video,do you have it?". So I agree with Reggie and Metal Jesus here. It's not the fault of people like them that drives the prices up.

[@schweatty]

I'm not saying its anyone's fault, but they do have an influence on game sales. You said yourself in your first post "They've helped me a lot in knowing what some of the games are like for my GBA,PSP and 3DS systems." so you go out and buy what you like. so do the other 35,500 people that have seen this video as of the time i am typing this. i myself have bought games based on what i like from these hidden gems videos. and when more people buy the same games, that means the demand goes up. the supply of these old games is fixed and the better the game, the less likely someone is willing to sell it, so there are less games available than people willing to buy them and the price goes up. where do you think the price guides you are talking about determine the prices? its from observed transactions in the market. its not just made up numbers. bottom line: its not greed and avarice, its the basic economic principles of supply and demand.

[@CraparellaSmorrebrod]

You're thinking about doing a video highlighting the 3D capabilities of the GBA? Yes please! :-D

[@FistingGuru]

Great video as always my man, I love when you and Reggie do stuff together!

[@jennylee9761]

I'm glad you do these hidden gems vids. I didn't know about Gumby and a lot of the games on this video its on my list of games to get now that I'm collecting physical carts (dude, all the games I need to get, I only have two!) its a great way to see what I should not pass up if I see it somewhere to grab it. :)

[@chameleonquest]

The rising prices concern seems a little silly to me. If Gumby wasn't mentioned here, you wouldn't know to buy it anyways, so what do you care if it was $1; you would've passed it by. If the game goes up to $10,000, either way you won't own the game so it hasn't changed anything. And if you did already know about it, well then good for you, you bought it already after all, right? It's just a troll argument. If you follow that logic, you have to take down reviews about all things. Instead, let's keep the retro community thriving. It has some of the kindest people I ever met. Keep up the good work guys. :D

I LOVE your hidden gems videos! I enjoy finding out about games that I didn't even know existed! Happy to see Sigma Star Saga on there I bought this game on clearance at Best Buy for five bucks years ago, and it quickly became a favorite of mine. For a future episode might I suggest Scurge: The Hive? I don't know if you've covered this game, it's on the DS as well, but it's like an isometric Metroid, it's pretty fun, minus some platforming issues due to the isometric view.

[@ghostisblack]

Yeah as you know I was one of the complainers about this, but again I also want to know about these games myself so I cant really blame you for sharing. I just wanted to say making a heads up post in patreon, like you did, before this video stating that you will be doing a hidden gems was really nice because then I could be prepared to spend some money if I saw things I liked and this time I was able to buy a couple of the games i saw here that interested me, so hopefully you can do that in the future as well! My Suggestions for Hidden Gems if you havent done them already: Froggers Adventures 1 & 2: This uses the classic movement of the original frogger and makes a story mode out of it, pretty decent platforming/adventure frogger game and both are really cheap.( I see one selling for $3 on ebay as im writing this) Dark Arena: It is basically a doom-like clone and works pretty good on the gba, I see you mentioned the doom ports on the gba. Those are the ones i think of atm,

I'm really impressed with these two videos. I've been researching lists of "hidden gems" or "underrated games" for the GBA, and they all either have suspiciously similar lists, as if such... _trusted bastions of integrity_ as IGN might be plagiarising other people's lists, or their idea of an underrated game is something that made everyone's top ten back in the day.

[@deadbeataffiliates]

Dude, MetalJesus, I just gotta say, thank you so much for putting out these great videos, you and Reggie are awesome! I've been watching all your stuff for a little over a year now and it never gets old man. Much love from Dallas, Texas, keep it up dude! I'm glad you brought up roms too, being as that's how I play most older games (moneys tight, ya feel me?), and it's always exciting when I see you and/or Reggie talking about a new game I've never heard of, it's almost like it's brand new and I'm getting pumped watching a trailer for it! sorry for the long spiel, I just had to show my appreciation, dude

[@Alienfanatic]

Patreon awaits you, man. MJR isn't pushy about it, but it's a good way to support the creators. He's the only one I've supported so far, but it's worth it to me.

[@deadbeataffiliates]

+John Gower what's up with patreon? Sorry, but I've never heard of it... what does it have to do with MJR?

[@Alienfanatic]

+David Gamboa MJR has a channel there. it's a subscription-based site for content creators. you sign up to sponsor them with an ongoing payment that typically runs $1-$10 a month. I pay about $5 but I'm pretty conservative. I know that Jason recently made MJR his full time gig so Patreon+ advertising sharing from KZbin is a good portion of his income. just a way for us to directly support creators we like. I sound like an ad, but I'm just one of those guys that picks the odd Patreon or Kickstarter to support those I like. (Also KS'd the MST3K revival so you know I have weird loyalties.)

Metal jesus, thank you so much for telling me about Ninja 5-0 I was looking for some sort of time killing game that has low level puzzles basically and I could play it on my phone through an emulator, I have now gladly sunk two days into this game, very solid recommendation!

[@alejorag]

I have a few suggestions for the next video, if I may (probably some of them aren't that hidden, but they're not widely discussed either): Tactics Ogre - The Knight of Lodis, Onimusha Tactics, Mazes of Fate (1st person RPG on GBA!), Riviera The Promised Land, Shining Force Resurrection of the Dark Dragon and as mentioned in some comments before me, Yggdra Union. Great video as always, love the hidden gems series!

[@demonsangells]

[@TheJuzi]

Thanks for another gba hidden gems. I just got my first gba about a month ago and I'm just loving it. I had a few gba games I had played on my DS but I'm not too into the double screen thing but the gba sp that I have is just perfect. Now I need to get all the great games for it.

Watching MJR videos is like comfort food for and just like comfort food his videos bring back warm memories. While I grew up with the Gameboy and Sega Game Gear, the GBA and PSP have quickly grown to be my favorite handhelds. The GBA has a mix of backwards compatibility, original franchises and old franchise remakes that sets it apart from most other handhelds. Another reason I love MJR videos so much is because of the guests he has on his show. I would say that about 95% of the guests he has on, could easily be any one of my closest friends. One thing that any long time lover of video games and gaming culture knows, is that the gaming community itself is a hidden gem. If you want to find the funnest, friendliest and most reliable individuals on earth, look no further than the gaming community. Sometimes I feel as if our community is somehow the last remaining bastion of humanity : ) or maybe : ( I never tire of watching your episodes MetalJesusRocks !!! Your videos never fail to lift my spirits and that makes them beyond priceless !!!

Thank you so much for the GAMEBOY ADVANCE love. still my favorite system

[@buskbarrelrecords8951]

I have to say, I love your hidden gems for the GBA vids! And your hidden gems videos as a whole! A few of my favorite GBA games you haven't quite touched on yet, that are pure gems for Gameboy lovers. First is one of my favorite trilogies on the GBA "CT: Special Forces". A GREAT series comparable to Metal Slug.(also a great game) Also I KNOW Reggie loves his beat 'em ups. "Dragon Ball Advanced Adventure" is one of my favorites! With a few battle modes and story driven gameplay, "DB Advanced Adventure" is a little more linear but very engaging! Also how can you forget the "Legacy of Goku" Series?! On the DBZ note "Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors" is an amazing fighting game similar to "Tekken" or "Super Street Fighter" only with Super Saiyan's. Also, I know how you love Star Wars! "Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith" is an AMAZING beat 'em up with force powers and lightsaber combat. If you liked "Double Dragon" You'll enjoy the gameplay. It's Like "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles I & II" but with Jedi's. My final GBA pleasure is a top down shooter entitled "Medal of Honor: Infiltrator". With intelligent level design and concise mission goals, "Ifniltrator" Is a standalone GBA title worth noting. To close, I'd like to urge you to try "Prince of Persia: Sands of Time". Also a VERY well rendered game with ALL of the aspects that makes PoP a great experience. Thank you for all of the collector ideas! I've never played Sia but it looks like fun! Also, I can't stop saying Bubble Bobble.lmao Keep on Rockin' Metal Jesus!!

[@Nepiki]

Yeey, you guys talked about Summon Night! My day is now a lot better :)!

[@gameboyrhys3688]
