Backyard Football on GameCube is pretty good

Backyard Football from 2003 is still fun! Let's relive some memories in this 20+ year old game! We play on the Nintendo gamecube featuring everyone's favorite Pablo Sanchez! You can also play as iconic NFL players! It might not be as good as the 1998 version, but I still have a lot of fun!

Fun fact: Pablo Sanchez has an English dialogue in Backyard Baseball where he says he learned Spanish in school as a second language

[@thomasreynolds6911]

If I’m remembering correctly, to get that English dialogue you had to hold the Shift key then click on Pablo so he talks

So, I actually worked on this game. Thanks for sharing it with everyone. There are a ton of Easter eggs in the game, like all of the kids play better on their birthdays and the game tracks the internal calendar on the GC - so one of the arenas changes to a Christmas motif on Dec. 25th and another to a Halloween motif on that holiday. The game was a lot of fun to make. The AI is admittedly a little weak but as a two player game, I think it holds up well.

[@heyheyhey33351]

I freaking loved it when GC games used the calendar and did special things on holidays. You guys made a great game! Thanks for giving us so much fun.

[@BrayMo18]

Games back then we’re just so much easier Better and fun

[@Churchyyy]

Thank you for shaping my childhood

[@capicua9689]

I used to play this game when it came out as a kid. I loved it thank you

[@blackgemstone801]

One of the first games my parents bought me. I lost track of how many hours I spent playing as a kid.

[@TheS1E2A3L4]

I would like to see a video where you take all the Backyard Sports Athletes and put them on a college team, and simulate a season to see what happens.

[@davidparkes7741]

Seconded.

Drewski knowing Spanish is very funny to me

Most of it was commonly used words, but some I was pleasantly surprised he knew lol

[@iGaveLiaHIV]

i mean most americans learn the basics in high school lol

[@evangunder1898]

I'm happy you branched out of NCAA despite how amazing the vids were, I think the campaign mode from blitz the league 2 with your commentary would be hilarious

lucky for you I have actually done a series for that already

[@jacksmiley3959]

And it’s an amazing series!

[@ryukami404]

@@chrisporter5559 Not to mention that even though there isn't as many cutscenes, the campaign from Blitz the League 1 was a lot better than 2's.

[@evangunder1898]

I actually remember seeing you do a video in the past and was just too caught up in Dynasty's to realize you did the series, I'm hyped!!

[@johnshank1051]

Backyard Football 2001 for PC with Drew Bledsoe on the cover will be one of my all time favorite Backyard sports game. Played that game for hours on end.

[@Weeeeeee.]

I’m happy he decided to do more of these videos instead of series

[@jaybirdyt5589]

Yeah I’ll miss the ncaa series but he’s happy with what he’s doing and I get happy when he uploads so were all good

[@kyperactive]

What does this mean? This is a series goofy.

[@joshfly210]

@@kyperactivehe means it’s not a series compared to his NCAA videos where they’re back to back and that’s all he does consistently. This one had been every now and then when he wants. Some of the first ones were a year ago.

[@elmzizdope]

​@@joshfly210 You need to work on your English/grammar because that was awful.

[@elmzizdope]

If he's happy getting significantly less views, then good for him. But everyone knows the NCAA series is the best, if you're into these corny games then you're probably a child yourself.

[@Chief4Army117]

This series is never complete without Pablo and Pete! Love these videos Drewski!

[@slayshy]

Thank you for posting, I hope you enjoy making the content as much as we enjoy watching Was having a terrible day till this

[@SilverGoose1]

I'm from KY and was a season ticket holder.. had the privilege of seeing the hefty lefty play his senior season

[@QBWorx]

Playing this game on an emulator is actually a vibe when ur bored

[@LWJS10]

Put so many hours in this game back in the day, the Pablo and Pete combo is real

[@CalderDaddy]

The nostalgia rush when I remember the stupid nicknames my brother and I gave players throughout the years. Ricky "Icky" Johnson always comes to mind.

[@XD-42069]

Hefty Lefty! Watching highlights of a big man with that athleticism and throwing ability is always crazy to see. RIP to a legend

[@wavyyoboybrabro7168]

Petes just Forrest Gump both fast and goated

[@rsaettone]

I remember this game. Calling Sneaky Cube at the goalline was so broken if your QB had any running ability.

[@jacob4189]

Yoooo! I’ve been on a backyard sports kick lately watching all your old vids so it’s crazy that you upload this now

[@BrentButler1089]

Thank you for all of these video uploads recently. I’ve been in a bad place mentally and these have been a bright spot

[@Tombomb615]

“It’s always the easy ones that are difficult” - Drewski (so real for that)

[@morgangreenwellman9354]

I was a kid when my aunt bought me this, was my intro to football. Good times and led to a love for the sport.

[@Agillism]

Good video! I also can't state enough how much I like the "you're all legends in my book" outro every video. Keep up the good work Drewski.

[@ericbush4701]

Loved this game as a kid. Not sure if you noticed, but the CPU will throw to the same receiver on every single passing play.

[@Dakotabrewer166]

This game will always have a special place in my heart. I still got the same game from when I was 8!

[@2bor4b95]

Pablo yelling banana haas me weak

[@dylandushack994]

Was waiting for this one. By far the best Backyard game and a huge part of my childhood

This needs to be a series. I wanna see Sloppy Joe and Pablo score some crazy numbers

Happy to see you having fun Drew!

[@MrKeeyt-jm3ji]

Just sweeping the album art hit my nostalgia so hard right now I almost cried.

[@pokemon_and_beer2289]

This game is absolutely amazing. Easily one of my most played GC games. The play creator was actually really good I remember making 3 plays that worked every time and I felt like a football savant.

[@danielmarschinke]

1998 was the first game I ever played. Drew Bledsoe and Pablo were a Goated combo

[@Viper1_TTV]

This is nostalgia from my childhood ❤

[@red5158077]

This was a game i played during childhood. I am now 24 and i still own this game for my GameCube. I love it to this day.

I also owned this game as a kid, it was a lot of fun!!

This was one of the first football games I can remember playing brings back memories

When this cam out for PC as a kid I thought it was life-changing, then I realized I liked the original was slightly better

Hey! You know how to roll your R's (coming from a Mexican) hahaha Maybe very different to what you normally do, but NBA Street 2 was really fun and you could make really OP players

My man is really back out here. I'm so happy

[@ZiggyZou]

I played this on the PC back in 03. Man I loved this game so much haha

[@MichaelCwalina]

Wow. I didn’t realize how much I played this game but I definitely did

[@SnizzyFizzy]

So I was born in 99 and never gotten to experience these classics, I grew up playing Madden and mlb BUT I will say it was you and a couple other youtubers that got me to download the BBL 97 game and it;s been a lot of fun, kinda wish I grew up playing these games lol

[@Blackberry356]

I love these videos!!!

[@thomaswoodson1230]

Played this so much as a kid. I actually dug it out a couple months ago to see what it was like again. Wow, definitely a kids game. Challenged myself to drop 100!

This was my favorite game growing up played it everyday 😭

Omg I love Drewski back yard football and goofy games! Even if it’s not sports. Love this guy 🔥

I miss the series you used to do, I really enjoyed and got a huge nostalgia trip watching you play NCAA and honestly wouldn’t mind if you went back to doing some series stuff especially like MLB the show or even NBA2k could be really cool. Love the content though keep pumping the videos out.

Yeah the PC version of Backyard football 03 is personally my favorite Backyard kids game ever. It was pretty easy but still so fun

Can you do a video on MLB power pros 2008 for the WII? Its a classic for me.

I think you’d have a blast playing MLB Slugfest. I believe the 2004 version is one of the best. Quick gameplay and you can punch all the players that give you “the look”

Pablo was my team mvp. Top receiver and DE in the league

I don't remember if you did this already NTE or if it was someone else but did you ever do a vid on either of the Bigs baseball games? I had the demo of the Bigs 2 on PS3 an it was gloriously silly arcade fun, and had fantastic mechanics. Still holds up pretty well today too

LET’S GO! 👏🏽

[@the010og]

Challenge: NFL Street 1, but every division you only add 1 OP new character to your team (Start with 2 characters and the rest default characters, as you start with 2 zones open, get the challenges done and do the ladder. When you beat the ladder and open a new area, you make a default character a new character and spend your points on them to make them OP too)
