RIP my GameCube and GameCube games. To this day, I deeply regret not holding onto them.

Absolutely true

i thought this was on 0.75 speed

Goonies 2 on the NES. Rented it excited that their was going to be movie sequel soon to follow! The game was horrible where you had wizards now for some reason? i remember wondering where are the pirates? Other friends didn't believe me there was going to be a movie sequel, so I had to rent it for them as well. i rented this bad game so many times i became really good at it & now i own the game. Probably paid twice for it for as much as i rented it. Spoiler Alert there was never a Movie Sequel to Goonies just a game sequel.

The reason why the gaming industry is not that popular today is because the game companies are doing what they want rather than what the people want, in most cases. If we count out the remasters of course which alot of people want, besides that, they rarely ever make something new, like a new franchise with totally new characters because it's something that is way about their head and might require alot of resources and thought, which many game studios today don't have, the ability to innovate and create things that are compelling to the players, they think they got a great idea but when it's on display and game testing occurs, they all fall flat and they have to lie to their quality assurance that the game is great and ready for release just to not get fired in many cases. This is the reality of todays gaming industry where everyone just cares about money and the products, the games in this case result in very poor reception and the games quality often is not up to expectation by the player base, the masses and all the players in general are looking for a game that is interesting and fun to play, who ever manages to fill that criteria often wins in almost every scenario, so hopefully the gaming industry can learn from the past success of the 2000s millenium and take learning courses from that era and bring that forward in modern times, if they even can, lol.

Its a tie they both were extremely flawed systems. For me they were both the one-two punch that made me not have Nintendo as my primary source for games. However I will say the Wii is better than both as it is both and its own thing.

I can’t go back to anything on the Atari VCS (2600). I just can’t.

Those cutaways/metaphors were funny, nice job. Not often do people nail them.

Like how you have the two controllers in front of the video that's playing. don't think anybody else would have done that very creative idea, since you talking about co-op games.

AAA games used to be good, but now they're just £££: £ - too bloody expensive for what we get. £ - game sizes are laughably big, to the point consoles have their own brand of external HDD/SSDs to compensate. £ - they're all so much alike in mechanics and gameplay, and requiring a lifetime and a half of hours to see the "true ending" that they're practically modded versions of the last big game with sprite and texture swaps, with half the sound effects and music being reused. Once my Xbox pulls a T2 ending thanks to a Microsoft update that's stopped it from updating so it can't be used online anymore, I'm switching to my Retroid Pocket 3 Plus, Pop_OS and buying a Blu-ray player because that's what I mostly use console for. 🤘🏻 💀🕛 🤘🏻

That “guy who wants a new F-Zero” gag with the door was expertly done

"Have you ever seen on that didn't?" *squints at Earthbound print ads that said "This Game Stinks"*

Cloud Master - on any system. I love this cute weird shootemup after first playing it on the sega master system. its just something completely different to every other shooter with rice bowls as enemies and your character is a guy flying on a cloud. Im a life long fan, but ive never heard it mentioned anywhere - guys its really playable - honest! The other quirky fact is that there were many ports of this game and each time its on a different console the name is changed slightly - ive seen it called Monkey King and Chuka Taisen as well as cloud master. Also each version is very different. 🎉🎉🎉

Are you planning on getting a retrotink 4k?

The budgets are increasing because CEO's get tax breaks which means MORE money in their pockets.

game developers sniff their own farts way too much, even when the gameplay is complete garbage, and it's just a bunch of cutscenes, if i wanted a movie i'd go see one

I personally don’t like it when the game wants to hand hold me and punishes me for going off course.. ejem red redemption 2. Couldn’t get into it so I traded it for Mega Man X collection. I like some open world games but they are limited to Zelda and Immortals rising Fenyx at the moment.

Need an update to the video to include Retro Tink 4k or Retro Tink 5 n.n

Both dk64 and banjo kazooie. And pretty much all call of duty after Xbox 360

AAA? now we have AAAA games. First one I know of when quadruple A was used is The Callisto Protocol (well not a commercial success) the second Skulls & Bones. 😝 Well I agree with most of what you said. First and foremost game needs to be good.

I’m sad I couldn’t be there to meet cha😢 I guess I’ll just eat this pile of bananas to cheer me up. 🍌🍌🍌 Not sure why I’m being shown this as it’s 8 months old…. But the sadness is really. Maybe next year

Just watching retro bird's retro videos

I tend to lean a little more nintendo because the SNES was the first console that was exclusively mine and I didn't have to share with a sibling. Thankfully my sister didn't play her Sega all that much so I spent a lot of time playing it as well. I loved Ecco the Dolphin, Aladdin, Mortal Kombat, streets of rage 2, Quackshot, Golden Axe. It was such a sweet console with really good games.

The people that say what would you with you're time if you didn't have to work are not gamers.

1:29 i hear voices every time i try to game 😂😂😂😂 but i see other play no gulit.

Yes it sucks. I love gaming but we have stuff to do.

Thanks to this video, iam in the Gameboy HOLE. Thanks, Mr Bird 🐦

I’d nominate Dr. Mario. As a single-player falling block puzzle game, it’s great fun, but as a two-player head-to-head, I think it is unrivaled - perhaps better than Tetris in that particular regard, I realize that may be controversial. But my ladyfriend, who has no interest in video games and frequently tells me to “go play my little games” is a huuuuge Dr. Mario fan and wants to play two or three rounds per day. It’s an immensely satisfying and beautiful game, very simple with tremendous depth. I think it has the potential for timeless appreciation.

I know people talk bad about the 360/PS3/Wii/DS/PSP gen but really that gen was the peak of being able to put out a relatively AA or AAA game and not have to sell that much to make your money back. That gen had constant great games coming out nearly every month from 2005 to 2013. 2014 in my opinion with the starting of the PS4 and Xbox 1 gen is when things started to get bad. A lot of games got very samey and homogenous and boring and got these huge crazy budgets that required massive sales to make your money back.

Did you record the "Waiting for Metroid" joke before the recent Direct?

Human creativity peaked in the 90s and early 2000s, now it's on the decline... Even people themselves don't dress as creatively as back then.

Hey RetroBird, this may seem totally off topic but: are you a christian by any chance? This is a legit question and no funny business.

I used to own the original one, and it was a blast! speedy video games and all! GREAT experience!

I like using my Wii on CRT displays because that’s what I grew up with up until probably 2011. I don’t think the Wii looks terrible on a time-appropriate HDTV, but I definitely prefer it with the blur of the older CRT.

Jumping on platforms and throwing knives or fireballs at enemies never gets old

Composite with crt works just fine for me

PC ENGINE and the CoreGrafx are beautiful. Especially when you stick them in the briefcase.

This was something I noticed in the N64 / PS1 era. There was a big push to make _everything_ 3D, whether it needed to be or not. Not all franchises were amenable to a transition to 3D, and it really hurt some of the titles in that generation to be shoehorned into a gameplay model. Then, around the PS2 time frame, music was moving toward orchestral scores (to be big and impactful, like the movies!), and everyone focused on cutscenes, voice acting, and bigger budgets. Simplicity started to fall by the wayside. That, of course, led to the rise of AAA. Sure, those big titles were impressive, and having some of that as an option for those who are into the big epic adventure... that's great. But, like movies and TV, it led to that mentality of "Oh you liked that? Well here are another ten just like it!" Meanwhile, I think people forgot how Tetris basically created the portable console market, Mario is synonymous with Nintendo, and more time is probably spent on arcade-style games than the lower 90% of players put into Skyrim. (Let's just accept that there are probably some gamers who logged in when the game was announced, and haven't seen their desktop wallpaper since, but they don't represent the whole.)

Retro Bird is like 9 feet tall. Gotta change the name to Retro Ostrich

Dude Comix Zone never looked so good on that CRT. Some great evergreen b-roll.

I remember looking at the turbo grafx 16 library to see what games were worth buying. I was very dissapointed.

I feel the same way about the Rocketeer on the NES
