I love this! Very cute =) I hope it gets over a million views. I hope Insomniac Games gets to see this and I hope Ratchet and Clank Rifts Apart comes to PC

[@CommonNeon]

Also, I love the mission failed part where you can hear the music from Jak 2 in the background. That's so relatable

[@AzimuthPrime]

"If Al can't fix it, its broke" Qwark has the most memorable lines

[@SanctumADD]

This game is a big part of my childhood! The references, sound effects, etc. just made this video even better! Happy anniversary to one of the best PlayStation games of all time!

[@MrMarioschannel]

This was so well crafted and lovingly made reminds me of a lot of early internet cartoons while also having its own distinct style love the references and how you integrated meme culture into it too it was hilarious!

[@nchldmn]

Thank you :)

2:54 Ratchet: wanna run through that minefield? Clank: Y E S

[@geviesanta3631]

This video game was so awesome when I was a little kid playing this and two of the original sequels that came out throughout the 2000's.

[@SuperWorldJumper]

9:26 I hope we get to see Ratchet’s vigorous training in ballroom dancing and origami. All necessary skills required of a Commando.

[@nchldmn]

Only then will he be a true commando :D

Thank you 😊

[@jimtron3256]

I adore how this looks 10 years old(in a good way) but has the humor of today.Well done

[@kurtmill9080]

Ah, I love a good throwback to Ratchet and Clank. Loved the expressions and animation of this. Thank you for making it.

[@nchldmn]

You're welcome :)

[@rosegoldmoon1854]

I hate that I didn’t grow up with RaC but I had the opportunity to play through the series and I’m glad to experience these games. The ost in RaC had my mind blown. This video is a cinematic masterpiece. love the art style and memes.

[@justsomeguyontheinternet562]

10 seconds in and I instantly subscribed. I really needed more Ratchet and Clank animations in my life, thank you.

[@nchldmn]

My pleasure :)

[@Nfshotpursuitking]

I don't understand how this doesn't have more views. I've rewatched this 4 or so times in the past week. Awesome homage to 1 of my favorite childhood games. Can't wait for part 2

[@nchldmn]

Thank you - Spread the word!

[@billymaynard4077]

Love that you took the time to include nods to the speedrunning strats used in the game.

[@bandana.]

Your new best animation artstyle (imo), so much memes, your previous works, cheats & other Ratchet games references... this is just pure art. It's just so smooth & more enjoyable to watch than ever. Such an amazing gift for 20th anniversary.

[@nchldmn]

Thank you :)

[@mm3shadowman982]

the usage of speedrun techs turned this animation from good to stellar

[@CaptainCJ97]

2:17 clank vibing to the music is great

[@bananabike279]

That was so good! Such a cute and funny tribute to the game that started it all 20 years ago! I WISH I knew about the taunter bolt farming glitch as a kid, that would've saved me so much time ;_;

[@TheCarloalberto95]

I love the fact that you put all the sound effects of the game!! Happy 20th to my favourite franchise!

[@snowworm4601]

This animation is perfect. I love all the references to the original trailers (which had a similar art style) and the timing of the music is impeccable. I've never subscribed to a channel so quickly and assuredly.

[@nchldmn]

Thank you! I made animations for the other two games as well :)

[@lennylime7953]

I can't believe how well done this is, from start to finish. Amazing job!

[@maestrofeli4259]

that was nice. Loved the mix of memes, speedrunning references and adaptation of the game. The "we uhh, still need to fix that arm" always brings a tear to my eye. And the way you used Going comando's intro sound as a teaser for the next video MWAH (chef's kiss). Good job

[@nchldmn]

Thank you! Can't wait to show you all the next one :)

[@maestrofeli4259]

This animation is great. I even felt the fear of hitting the water from the Sharkigators. I also love your usage of memes and speedrunning references.

[@SyamDaRos-EndoManno]

8:50 this gag was brilliant!

[@Hiikratti]

This video and ratchet and clank games are so much nostalgia.

[@ZanicaKnight]

Oh my goodness. As a diehard fan since the beginning(since playing R&C 2002 demo in early 2002 at the age of 5) and a Ratchet & Clank 2002 purist through-and-through, I LOVED THIS! The art is really well done, the jokes and memes stick the landing every time, and the facial expressions lmfao. This was glorious. Thank you, whoever you a-- oh it says Nicholas Damiani for your channel name. Thank you, Nicholas ...Damiani. :)

[@nchldmn]

You're welcome! Stay tuned for the sequel :)

[@JAYDOG1337A]

Ahh, the Taunter on Blackwater... this guy knew the assignment.

[@nchldmn]

Yeees

[@TheGoblinCommune]

Love all the references to the speedrunning of R&C1, nice job!

[@LazarouDave]

Brilliant vid - don't know how it's only on 29k views, it deserves was more, perfect blend of humour, references to speedrunning, snappy edits, and music nostalgia.

[@nchldmn]

Thank you! I made animations for Going Commando and Up Your Arsenal too!

[@LazarouDave]

@@nchldmn I scrolled through your uploads trying to see if you did, and missed them! (Blended in with the clones stuff) "It's on my to-do list!"

[@ZEK-ROM]

The way this is animated just oozes a certain charm that I just love. Please do the other PS2 games in the series and keep up the good work!

[@nchldmn]

Thank you! Going Commando is next!

[@shelbywinkel1921]

This was fantastic! All of the original sound effects are great, and the subtitles are hilarious! (So, leaving Drek on Veldin for days and days to go find more bolts was a universal experience, then? XD).

[@PsychadelicoDuck]

I do wonder what percentage of players actually beat Drek legit.

[@bestratchetandclank]

And how many afk the bolts.

[@decadentgamer3108]

@@PsychadelicoDuck I'm one who did. Now granted I lost to him like 3 or 4 times but I eventually did beat him. This was back in 2003 and I was like 11 years old and didn't know about the Hoverboard race glitch cheat at the time and when I eventually did make it a goal to get the RYNO on my third playthrough, I did do the Hoverboard race to get the remaining bolts I needed but again, I had no idea about the glitch so I played it straight and it was as long and tedious as you would believe LOL

[@marinadadulce5358]

I'm also did it legit, even through it cost me a lot of time, but eventually did it

[@gumitansan]

めっちゃ面白いです🤣 1:08 特に壁抜けしてる所がお気に入りです(笑)

this is awsome i love how bombastic and fun the animation is its also really funny well done nick and happy 20th anniversery to ratchet and clank

[@kupakpasztet7100]

IDK why this has so little views this is dope af

[@vireo2543]

I love the small references throughout the video like the speedrunning strat, the taunter bolt glitch at the hoverboard racetrack, etc. 😂

[@PsychadelicoDuck]

I know for a fact that at least some of those crazy skips are actual speedrun strategies, which just makes it all the better. And that ending with Drek... the true R&C 1 experience! Lovely all around.

[@nchldmn]

Thank you :)

[@RafnII]

Love it, nice you included some speedrunning strat👌

[@I-VisiBomb-I]

8:19 i actually just replayed the planets again and again to gain bolts, like it was intended.

[@johnnygyro2295]

That's why I wait to buy the Rhyno in challenge mode runs. Bolt multipliers help.

[@arrolate]

5:20 yoooooo why is this so accurate? I think all of us that played R&C as kids had the same reaction

My new favorite video of all time.

[@stacado59]

How cute how rachet designed with this style

[@martingu36]

This is a masterpiece. Best 9 minutes and 36 seconds of my entire year so far. Enjoyed every single bit of it. Loved the references to every kid's thought we definetly had when playing R&C. Speedrun skips included too, that makes the difference between average R&C fans and R&C enjoyers. Very subtle, yet mandatory detail to use the soundtrack playlist according to every map. Ultimately, I didn't expect myself to enjoy the W I D E C L A N K meme as much but I did. This deserves so much love and I hope you're receiving it. PS: Had to watch it twice because I didn't notice the subtitles had extra references. So that makes the best 19 minutes and 12 seconds of my year.

It's almost 100% accurate. The "nerdy scientist" and the tropical planet are missing. Also, no Ratchet&Clank banter. They argued a lot in this game after all.

[@thebegleyshow3320]

Thank goodness for that Tesla Claw in the final battle against Chairmen Drek. When it comes to final bosses in Ratchet and Clank. Drek is the hardest. Though, it might be a tie with Dr. Nefarious in Up Your Arsenal. Especially if you play Challenge Mode in Up Your Arsenal and Nefarious pulls an Ultron upgrade on you.

Just Best Game Ever : - Gameplay A+ - Ost A+++++ Etc. Ratchet and clank are the PlayStation's face forever Nice video and happy birthday to the licence yeah !!!!

[@Zeebats]

Amazing work, true dedication

[@SuperWorldJumper]

I can say with 100% certainty that this video is at least 42% accurate. 😎 I love all the Easter eggs! Like at 1:03 is a still from a 2D animated Ad for the original game. (And after watching the whole video, there are several of these sprinkled throughout) 2:19 Clank Vibing to Black Water’s awesome soundtrack. And that’s where I end my list because there were too many good moments to list. But I also enjoyed your own references to your earlier animations. Liked the knod to speed running techniques. At the very least we still got to see Gemlik Base. I also loved the look of dread on Ratchet’s face reflective of the soundtrack and atmosphere this place gives out. Fantastic way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the first game and the series as a whole. Here’s to the next one, whenever that may be!
