The Rise and Fall of Madden Mobile: The Complete History

[@veryBerryTV]

Hey everyone! I appreciate all of the support on this video, it's been insane and I truly am so grateful for all of it. With that being said, I've received a handful of comments asking me to cover more about Madden Mobile. Would you guys be interested in hearing my story of the community? I used to run an Instagram account for Madden Mobile (I had 13K followers at my peak; I was a custom card creator), and I was one of the OG's in the community (I joined December 2014). I have stories from so many different parts of Madden Mobile and the community, from knowing MMG and other big youtubers/accounts, to how it affected me personally and gave me a love for graphic design... and everything in-between. Let me know by either replying or liking this comment if that's something you'd be interested in seeing, thanks!

Awesome video man. The Madden Mobile community was always the thing that made the game as fun as it was. Taking out h2h game modes and the auction house made playing the game a more isolated experience. Classic EA, making one of the greatest mobile games ever and then ruining it with their greedy tendencies.

[@veryBerryTV]

@@sufy0712 i appreciate it! and i 1000% agree, the games feel so lonely without the auction house. it’s truly a shame that they ruined such an amazing game, i honestly believe if they just (basically) re-dropped mm15/16 but with updated rosters the games would become 100x more popular overnight.

[@RealStormfury]

Madden Mobile feels so dystopian. Everything is inflated to make it seem so much bigger and better, when that's just the hollow shell what it's trying to grasp itself being. I miss MM16 so much too, one distinct memory younger was pulling some sort of Aaron Rodgers Road To the Playoffs card... I think, I can't find it online but I think that's what it was. Great video! Hopefully I see more from your channel in the future.

As a former creator of Madden Mobile content, this brings back a lot of memories. Man, I really do miss playing this game and making content on it. I played it longer than most people, I stopped playing and making constant content towards the end of 22. I keep praying that one year they'll just do a revamp of MM15-16. I've been saying for a long time, they needed to change things up to keep players engaged, I get that part. But, they didn't do it in the right way. It's been long enough, there's been enough advancements, they could totally bring it back in its simple form and it would work. Fantastic video man, I've thought about doing something like this but you did it much better than I ever would have. Hats off :)

[@wittybanter96]

To me, they really missed their opportunity in MM22 to do something meaningful. They were rebuilding the whole game from scratch and decided to double down on the restricted AH by removing it all together and making it a total gacha game.

[@the.mr.bubbles]

so many lunch table debates of madden console vs mobile from 15-18 man what a time to be alive

[@DSARM]

Man, this vid is a banger. Another aspect that made MM15/16 so great was the KZbin community too. Guys like MMG, Slay, Ducky getting 100K+ subs from solely MM content in the 2016 YT era is crazy to look back on. My first 50 vids on this channel are pretty much all MM pack openings and shopping sprees trying to be like those guys - hype intro, trap instrumentals, high energy voiceover etc. Miss those times! Again, awesome vid.

[@veryBerryTV]

appreciate it man!! agreed, the KZbin/IG communities for MM we're insane. I've made some lifelong friends from those times, those we're the days man. i remember running an instagram account that i made custom cards on and somehow got up to like 13k followers, it's the reason i pursued graphic design as a career now. but, i remember doing the exact same thing back in the day lmao. appreciate the kind words tho!!

And I absolutely forgot about Draft Champions from 18, I absolutely loved that mode with all my heart because I literally screamed internally whenever I get goat cards at the final rounds. 😢 PS: I’m glad I quit the game during the start of 20, before 21.

[@jskylinegtr34]

Some memories from past Madden Mobile seasons: MM15: When that 96 Clay Matthews and Delanie Walker Final Editions were like 40-50k to buy until the season ended, those cards are budget beasts, instead of being used as a set piece on the 99 Joe Haden. MM16: When EA put out a set that let you turn 3 MVP or Captains to Position Heroes, i turned 3 90-91 Captains into a 99 Kawann Short Position Hero. Also tried my luck at the Final Edition using 5 gold trophies and pulled the 96 (97 on console) Terron Armstead MM17: When i was able to build 99 Jordan Reed, T.Y. Hilton, Haloti Ngata and Brian Cushing then selling one version of the Unsung Hero. That program that gave cards to non-playoff teams (or in case of teams that went 9-7, the ones that went to the 2017 playoffs). Then the sudden introduction of NFL Bosses, which gave supercharged versions of players that were dominant in their career and on a team in the 2016 season. MM18: 129 OVR defense, and the only affordable DTs that were able to do a top defense were the mover ones.

[@connorgould3153]

Nice video, I was in high school during the games peak and spent all day playing it, so people would constantly ask me to show them my team. Fun times, Domination Gronk caught everything.

[@jtosports]

Amazing vid bro! Pulling heat out of pro packs with the boys back in middle school was peak 😢 I’m just happy we had this game at one point when it mattered the most

[@superdman2276]

The one thing that I hate with a fire passion, is that the sets over time become so hard to do for one card, it’s like you either sacrifice your entire binder for one card or have an binder of mid cards, and for ultimate team in general, theirs no like free grind for a great card, only for mid cards. I think if they had the program feature that MLB the show has for it’s mode, then ultimate team would be actually decent. So many EA scams everywhere in all their games. I remember that it took me 4 years to find the sets option because it feels like everything is hidden in the game hud.

[@dylanshort1661]

I remember for Christmas a decade ago at this point. I got a tablet with a bunch of downloaded games already on it. Madden mobile 14 was one of the pre downloaded games. I loved the franchise and head to head modes. The game got me into the NFL and made me a Falcons fan. I took a break during 16 because my tablet broke and I forgot about it, but I returned to 18 (which in my opinion is when franchise was the most fun.) and still loved the game. I absolutely hated what overdrive did getting rid of franchise and auctions. I've tried getting back into Madden mobile but the game really feels like a shell of itself.

[@veryBerryTV]

man thats a great way to get introduced into the NFL, especially since those games we’re top tier. this game truly does feel soulless and just doesn’t hit the same at all. it feels like it lacks the passion that made it so great

I quit the game for several years in 2018. I remember back to 2015 and 2016 (in my estimation, two of the best versions of the game) and the US map full of live events and collections that went throughout the year with fun stack boosts and most importantly, large events and themes that you really looked forward to. Christmas, thanksgiving, frozen, halloween, 4th of july, draft, all of them were fun and I looked forward to them when they were on the horizon.

Recently MMG posted a video answering people"s questions about the new College Football 25 game, and one thing he said is that with all the hype that game is getting after an 11 year hiatus, EA is putting a lot of effort into the game to make it really fun to play, which is expected to raise the standards for their Madden 25 release, especially since the CFB team and Madden team are close collaborators As someone who has fond memories of playing a lot of Madden Mobile during the 17 and 18 years, I am hoping that Madden Mobile 25 is also upgraded to make up for all the neglect the game has suffered from. Also since EA's most common criticism is for being too greedy and releasing the same game every year for easy billions instead of evolving, I hope this can have a ripple effect on the rest of the company, with CFB 25 being the spark they needed

Never got into Madden Mobile, but still this is a very cool video. Subscribed.

[@rayodfilms]

Madden 25 mobile on my Ipad 4 was peak life

[@SumoZerrs]

for me being able to use the team of a bunch of different players in a normal regular season was my favorite thing and i was so dissapointed when they removed the ability to do that

[@veryBerryTV]

yeah i’m not sure why they would even think taking that away was a good idea…

[@lunatik383]

Would love for you to cover the competitive side of the game. Shit was wild, the #1 league in 15 and 16 was just one guy who was a cookie salesman but was hacking to make sure hed win by a few points during the last minutes of the match. Each top league would make alt accounts to make alt leagues to snipe other top leagues. Was a member of multiple top 10 leagues (including the number 1 league for 17, 18, and overdrive) if you have any questions lmk!

[@veryBerryTV]

might have to look into that, i was in a top 25 league for a while in mm15/16, but i didn't know about the #1 guy lmao. i might have to take you up on that tho!

[@SAMAJE69]

I remember my cousin got me into madden mobile 15, then I remember hating madden mobile 19 because there was no season mode. So many memories with this one can’t believe what it is now. NO AUCTION HOUSE IS CRAZY

[@veryBerryTV]

madden mobile 15 was my favorite of them all, great game. 19 was awful, i hated it too. but yeah, no auction house is insane to me and i don't think they'll ever add it back. they care that much about people selling coins

[@frespects9624]

​@veryBerryTV I love the fact that people buy coins specifically because of the greedy practices EA participates in and yet EA is too shortsighted to realize that people would spend that money directly with them if they'd loosen their greedy mitts.

[@Kbergzz]

I’ll never forget playing with my friends on FaceTime. Comparing teams to see who had the best and doing pack wars. I remember saving up tons of packs too just to open them all at once. And Christmas day challenges dude best times!

[@aidenknowles1943]

90 ovr captain kapernick was a budget BEAST

[@veryBerryTV]

the amount of good budget beasts back in those earlier MMs was crazy. i remember being able to beat 99 overall teams with budget squads, good times man. hope you enjoyed the video!

[@golfboy7676]

I still remember pulling a 97 Jake Butt Easter card at my grandmas house on my moms phone 😢the good days

[@biged680]

that was 20 i think i enjoyed 19 and 20 but after that the game sucked

[@Sterim00]

I remember opening so many pro packs back in the day, and since there wasn't a binder limit it would take 20 minutes just to open up and scroll through your pulls.

[@golden2614]

Glad I saw this video bro! I remember I was in 9th grade during MM15 selling coins on Instagram with a few thousand Subs and Insta followers. Definitely sucks EA botched it.

[@veryBerryTV]

@@golden2614 appreciate it! but same man same, i had a pretty big account back in the day too lmao. sucks ea ruined it

[@matthewblack1845]

Loved this video! MM 15 was amazing !

[@veryBerryTV]

appreciate it man! and it was, that was my favorite MM of all time

[@rendawg9584]

I still have a picture of my golden ticket Marcus peters I pulled from a pro pack, I miss it man

[@veryBerryTV]

man what a pull.. i still have a video of me pulling 99 Combine chris johnson and i was freaking out (and i sounded like such a little squeaker💀)

[@byryn.]

The one thing that really bothered me about the whole saga was not being able to use your built team in season mode

[@kidrudraaa]

This was such a good video, it’s sad to see that the overalls of players became broken and went up to 600 overall, and even madden Max made no sense because like you said line men had max speed of 99 and receivers had 99 strength, and that’s just unrealistic. Now they have no auction house which is one of the funniest parts of the game, but also the facts that the promos are literally all the same concept of trading in rares for epics and epics for iconics, like where is the new creativity in the game, like what we’re they even thinking of having the overalls be completely out of hand as well.

[@The_Lexer]

Aww man, now I've been reminded of how much fun Draft Champions was. I used to do draft simulations (I think Muthead had one) just because of how fun the drafting process alone was. Now, even that hasn't existed for 5+ years as far as I know.

[@veryBerryTV]

sadly it didn't make them any money so they took it out... just like so many other features smh.

[@TTVgring0]

bro i thought you had more subs, this video was so well put together. def earned my sub my boy 💕keep it up

[@veryBerryTV]

@@TTVgring0 i appreciate the love man🙏 gonna definitely keep on grinding! im hoping to build up a chill community with this🫡 hopefully i can find my niche and we can continue to grow this channel🫶

[@foruv]

great video, i remember during 20 and even 21 how much i missed 15-18 and now i miss 20 and 21 too lol the game has straight up become like every other mobile game

[@veryBerryTV]

@@foruv man thinking about prime mm15/16…. enough to make a grown man cry🥲 and yeah, the games literally just a microtransaction simulator, its crazy. mm20 was the last one i truly played i played mm15-18, stopped in overdrive and then gave 20 a chance but its all just gone downhill since then

[@foruv]

@@veryBerryTV agreed 100%, its insane how far off it fell from when they messed up auctions in 18 to mm20, which was getting insane hate even 4 years ago compared to now where mm isnt even recognizable from what it used to be

[@veryBerryTV]

@@foruv yep. it truly started when they introduced the price caps and well… it went downhill from there. i mean, i remember at the time the game was out people lowkey didnt like mm16 (mm15 had everyone in a chokehold back then), and now its a complete mess with these insane overall cards, trash gameplay and trash promos🤦‍♂️

[@willbarnes7693]

Hell of a video… still brings a tear to my eye what ea did to the game we loved
