I'm honestly surprised that he didn't talk about the Middle-Eastern cultural style within Shantae's world, which really has like an Arabian Nights vibe to it, similar to Aladdin. In fact, Shantae's outfit actually looks extremely similar to Princess Jasmine's red outfit she wore near the end of Aladdin, and I wouldn't be surprised if that was the inspiration for Shantae's design!... Well that and the classic show "I Dream Of Jeannie" of course.

WiegrafDX Hope so too. She’s the perfect character for Smash: diversified moveset, including transformations and hair whips, a bevvy of awesome soundtracks, lots of good locations for stages particularly Scuttle Town, lots of costume design ideas, she’s an indie character who started off as a Nintendo character and last but not least: it will certainly boost her popularity to new heights. The only thing I imagine stopping her from being in Smash would be her sex appeal, they already turned their nose at Mai Shiranui, but she had big, cleavaged boobs and exposed legs; Shantae has her boobs covered and wears baggy pants. The only thing exposed on her is her arms and belly. So yeah, I’m really drawing up a blank as to why she wouldn’t be allowed in Smash.

Are you gonna do Completionist reviews of the other Shantae games? Especially Half Genie Hero, as it feels like more of a Completionist's game, as there's so much more to do and complete than all of the other games! Does Half Genie Hero deserve a "Complete It" rating? Well I guess it depends on if Jirard thinks completing it is rewarding enough. I think the main rewards for completing every different mode are different win screen trophies, most of which show Shantae in different outfits. Some gamers find them rewarding enough, but for a hardcore Completionist like Jirard, I can't say for sure. If you ask me, if earning all of the win screens aren't rewarding enough for him, then I'd say the game deserves a Completionist rating of "Complinish It" (a mix between Complete and Finish It), as in Complete the main game (as it unlocks the good ending), but maybe don't complete all of the other game modes and DLC's that come with it. They're basically all of the exact same levels over and over again, but with some different game mechanics and dialogue to change it up a bit. I'd say completing the main game is enough, but that's just me.

Really, they worried about Shantae being too sexy for the Game Boy Color?... Well I never saw it that way. Don't get me wrong Shantae is quite a sight, but her design isn't too over the top, and I didn't find it distracting at all. If anything we could argue that she's more cute than sexy (or perhaps a perfect balance of the two?)... I always thought they weren't trying to make her just another sex symbol full of fanservice, but rather trying to make her look like a traditional Arabian belly dancer, and when it comes to cultural accuracy, I'd say they nailed it! After watching a couple videos by Gaijin Goombah, it opened my eyes to even more than I already knew about Shantae!

I would say a good balance between beauty and cuteness, at least up to Risky's Revenge. Everything after has a higher cuteness rating, in my opinion. As far as the dancing and whatnot goes, I find it tasteful and tame, especially compared to other mediums...or how real people like to dance sometimes.

The unfortunate irony behind the healing dance is that it drains 10 gems per healed heart. That makes 100 gems for a full heal. You know how expensive a full heal potion is? 100 gems. And you can carry 99 of those, more than you‘d ever need, and use them at the press of a button rather than needing to dance for it.
@darkonyx6995
@darkonyx6995 Жыл бұрын
The dances can be good when you are away from the shopping, furthermore the healing dance requires less minimum gems to do the work, so you can have minimum resources and still heal, and sometimes you don't need to heal a whole lot of life, thus sparing heal potions for more important moments that requires you to heal fast!

you can actually access the Tinkerbat transformation on Shantae's non-advanced mode. To do that, press Left (×2), Right (×8), Left (×6), Right (×2), Left (×7), Right (×6), Left (×8) on the title screen once the game has booted up. This combination is not random, rather it is one off from WayForward's phone number of (661) 286-2769. Once that menu appears, you can choose to start a Debug Game (Which will take over a normal file slot), at which then you get access to the features that Debug Mode provides. once you created a debug file, press down, up, up, and the Tinkerbat transformation is all yours!!

I played through Pirates Curse and Risky's Revenge 1st, and while they are better games it wasn't painful back tracking to play the original. There were some moments where I cringed but I got quickly over that, such as the warp squids, felt easy to get lost because you don't have a map and the game is surprisingly big, and no check system made back tracking a pain but not as bad as I've had with other games of that time, or frankly games of today (which is saying something since games of today should have these problems fixed up). Game was still fun, and while not as enjoyable as the later titles still fun and just as easy to play in today's day and age, it was fun seeing the origin and how they've progressed as a franchise and company throughout the years. Now all we need is SHANTAE FOR SMASH ULTIMATE, COME ON PAPA SAKURAI LET'S GO! Minecraft Steve please, Shovel Knight is the Indie darling over the past few years, but these 2 don't have the history that Shantae does, the perfect indie rep for Smash.

I, for one, didn't mind the slower, methodical transformation method. The only thing I didn't like about it was that it happened in real time, meaning enemies could hit you out of the animation. That, and the moments where you only need to transform for about 3 seconds and then you transform back. I didn't mind the slower pace. I find it visually and conceptually interesting that she dances to use her magic. I would like a second attempt at the fighter gears, with an upgrade system like the magic jams in R.R., handled like the dark magic in Pirate Queen's Quest. I'm a defender of the gears, except the one where you have to stand in place for a while to use it. The one that is also mapped to the attack/run button. The one that has made me fall into more pits than I can count. That one. The others are fine in my opinion, since they deal more damage than the hair whip in this game. The tiara, like the harpy claw swipe (the REAL harpy talon), is an instant kill to regular enemies. Too bad flash bolts were so op. They were my main method of attack. :P

you really took your time to review this game, specially for teasing this game very subtly several times, this is easily one of the best looking game in the GBC, i might got lost at times for not having a map also spend sometime locating the zombie caravan but overall this game was a blast! is worthy to complete it

the original Shantae remains the only entry in the series I haven't been able to beat ( not including Seven Sirens as it's not on consoles as of my typing this )...the game is infinitely harder than any of the sequels, at least it is for me. ...man I hope Shantae is one of the 6 characters in Smash Ultimate's 2nd fighter pass....

And the sequel to the sequel is yet still better! Branson: Now to hold my sword erect and chant the mystical words! *ahem* *epic music starts blaring* "Hey guys, we should go get matching purses! No reason they should just be for ladies anymore! Am I right, hey fellas don't leave, fellas come back!" *beat* I HAVE THE ADVANTAGE! *upon talking to him again* I don't know how to change back. Or this (paraphrased) gem from 1/2 genie hero. Squid Baron: I've come to terms with my fate. So how's your adventure going... Would you say you're about *half* way there? Shantae: Uhhh SB: And your bags... Would you say they're about...half full? That's right. It's mid-boss time! The thing I like most about Shantae as a franchise is the writing is just...so good. Also Barracuda Joe is my favourite side character next to Squid Baron.

Hi Completionist! I wasn’t sure if you’ve played this game yet but a suggestion I have is “Hyper Light Drifter”. It’s a top down game that reminds me of all the Zelda games that you enjoy playing so I figured you might like to look into it. Keep up the awesome work!

I been waiting for this review. XD Still remember how I got the first Shantae game when I young. ^^ Me and my siblings got a new game before we moved to a new house. She got Shantae while I got Wario land. She didn't like how the game was played so she wanted to trade so I traded with her and from that moment I loved the game. I'm still sad I had to give up my copy when we got the GBA and my folks game all old Game Boy Color and game relatives as a hand-me-down thing.^^;
Is the Original Shantae a Good Game?
