All Resident Evil (PS1) Box Art & Game Disc Regional Differences

[@anthonyanderson-leone910]

I lived near a gas station that had an air soft replica of Leon's gun. They wouldn't sell it to me because I was underage. It was so cool though

[@Whalewraith]

I tried to buy the Wesker special edition when it came out. It was so cool, a Baretta, futuristic silencer real lazer site etcetera. Turns out as im in the uk I needed an actual gun licence for the airsoft (realistically impossible here). The only way around was to pay the company to have it sprayed orange. Pass.

I have that controller It’s handles are meant to represent a knife and a gun, it’s meant to give players the actual feel of holding 2 different weapons (kinda an easier version of CQC)

[@ebesonen]

I had no idea that there were such huge differences, between the American and Japanese versions of the Resident Evil games, the amount of content you could get with the games, also the various cool nick- nacks you get that were sperate from the games, this was very cool video to watch SorePN thanks for showing us this, you did a nice job here ✌️

[@ColetteHart]

That's really nice collection. That Desert Eagle is definitely an airsoft replica, like the Samurai Edge. Capcom seems to have a deal with airsoft manufacturer Tokyo Marui, you can always see their company logo in the end credits of every game. They likely provide realistic weapon models to the developers, which is why guns in the series tend to look pretty good.

[@BlueJayWaters]

I remember seeing the action figures at Kay Bee toys for years after RE2 came out. They had the shock collection and the alarm clocks, but not the Claire and Leon with lighters. Seeing as I smoke today, I would love the RPD lighters now.

[@igodreamer7096]

I just love the Japanese cover of Resident Evil 3 so much, the scenery is so eerie and mysterious! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@spooky9030]

The music choices for old skool RE are very nostalgic specially the save room ones. Good video, I enjoyed every bit of it. those are some pretty uncommon gems yu got there

[@dlbarnes]

I always thought biohazard was a fitting title for the game. The eye draws you in, creating a life-threatening effect for the player. But the American version didn't quite feel life-threatening may be due to the fact you had a weapon.

[@OCPrunsthecops]

Biohazard was also the name of a shitty band in the 90's so it wouldn't have worked just on that. Biohazard is a cool name, though i agree. It is fitting for the series as a whole. Resident Evil only works as a title for the 1st game because you're in a residence.

[@papichulo8749]

@@OCPrunsthecops at this point the popularity of the series would have overshadowed whatever band that was anyway so we would've associated Biohazard with the games instead 🤷‍♂️

[@Constellasian]

Great video. Informative. With Capcom's recent RE remakes, I'm wondering why they decided to change Jill's personality completely in the RE3 remake? They pretty much left Leon, Clair, and Ada the same.

[@DPham1]

Nu-Jill's personality is absolutely horrid. She's like an edgy teenager who feels the need to swear to act cool and "tough." I replayed RE5 and OG Jill oozed a quiet, mature confidence yet warmth. Nothing like and leagues better than Nu-Jill

I have a big collection of the “Video game super starts” RE2 toy line from 1998. All new in box! But I had no idea that all this existed.

[@fred_derf_]

Still, there is something weird and cool about the original PAL cover art, the Japanese arts are great but they give away the fact that there is a lab involved, witht the European box you just knew it was horror and action, I think back in the days it made a difference by not giving away spoilers, but then again it mainly works if you discovered the game when it was released back in 96.

[@mielthesquid6536]

11:40 I tried this controller one time, it is quite rare I think but fun. It is supposed to be held like a gun and the button configuration is slightly altered to make it look like it. It is actually closer than configuration you would see today with R button used for shooting. Basically you have the R button behind the long shaped handle and it feel like a trigger.

[@juanmartinstehle5047]

In the Biohazard 2 demo disc there is an exclusive demo of Rockman Dash a.k.a Mega Man Legends. That demo is only available in the Japanese version of Resident Evil: Director's Cut.

I used that controller. It was a long time ago but I think it had a button dedicated to spinning the character round which helped with escaping and it was much easier to aim with it. It was comfortable. Kind of felt like holding an actual weapon. Damn, I should have kept it :) Great vid.

That cover for the U.S. version of the 1st R.E. game, I thought the guy's expression was done intentionally by the artist. The left side, viewed alone, is anger. Viewing the right side only is fear and confusion. Done intentionally to covey the 3 most expressions the player will have on their face while playing the game.
