Justin BakerHOST
Waku Waku 7 was fucking Neo Geo, and that is a weird-ass game in which you get to play as a chain chomp.
Chris SaturnHOST
Was that Sunsoft or Data East? I don't remember.
Justin BakerHOST
Sunsoft developed that one.
Justin BakerHOST
Okay.
Justin BakerHOST
Yeah.
Audi SorliePANELIST
Oh, yes.
Audi SorliePANELIST
And that game is part of that Sunsoft series where...
Audi SorliePANELIST
You have these weird like kind of photorealistic graphics in the bosses, they do this in Fester's Quest as well and it's kind of unsettling there and Blaster Master, same thing.
Audi SorliePANELIST
But like, that last gremlin is this big disgusting spider and I could never beat it, I had to put the controller down, turn it off, I got like anxiety and I couldn't be in the same room as a TV.
Jason RobbinsHOST
I could listen to that all day.
Jason RobbinsHOST
But Batman the Video Game was produced by Sunsoft for the Nintendo Entertainment System and Game Boy, loosely based on the 1989 film of the same name.
Jason RobbinsHOST
Despite having the same title, each is actually a different game.
Jason RobbinsHOST
The NES title is arguably the best known and contains five levels culminating in a showdown with the Joker in the bell tower of the Gotham Cathedral.
Jason RobbinsHOST
It was received quite well despite changes from the movie upon which it was based.
Jason RobbinsHOST
Sunsoft followed up the release with Batman with Batman Return of the Joker.
Jason RobbinsHOST
And I will admit that I did not get to play that game.
Jason RobbinsHOST
And I'm going to for people that are watching, I'm going to hold up the cartridge here.
EvanHOST
So Konami is obviously like the best when it comes to video game music, but I'm not as like, there are so many composers throughout Konami's catalog.
EvanHOST
Or like when you look at something like Sunsoft, it's like very recognizable Naoki Kodaka, very recognizable Masashi Kageyama.
EvanHOST
Right.
EvanHOST
It's just amazing to me how there's so many Konami composers and they all kill it.
LogPANELIST
They had Third Strike.
LogPANELIST
But we played a game called Astra Superstar, which was a Sunsoft fighting game that...
LogPANELIST
I was curious about, and so I asked somebody who is very, like, proficient in the fighting game wiki and tournament organization space.
LogPANELIST
I asked them, like, hey, does anybody play this game? There's, like, not even a wiki for it.
LogPANELIST
And they replied to me, yeah, nobody cares about this game because you can't emulate it.
LogPANELIST
And it's like, oh, that's sad.
LogPANELIST
Astro Superstar made by Santa Claus and Sunsoft.
LogPANELIST
Yeah.
A.J. DittyHOST
That's damn true.
Brian AlfordHOST
Sunsoft is like, okay, we got, there's a Sega CD.
Brian AlfordHOST
There's this Nintendo CD attachment thing going on.
Brian AlfordHOST
There's Philips.
Brian AlfordHOST
You fucker.
Brian AlfordHOST
Yes, Dutch horse fuckers are making one of the worst consoles ever made.
Brian AlfordHOST
So Sunsoft was doing the Japanese, not just localization, but sometimes ports because, you know, it's a different computers were popular in Japan, like the MSX, for instance.
Brian AlfordHOST
So Sunsoft had been working with Cyan's Games in Japan and was like, OK, all these Japanese companies are working on their CD thing.
Graham CooksonHOST
Excellent stuff.
Graham CooksonHOST
And next up, we have a port also by Carlos, hombre imaginario, of Waku Waku 7, which if you don't know, it's a 1996 fighting game developed and published by Sunsoft, originally for the Neo Geo arcade platform.
Graham CooksonHOST
It was then later ported to the Sega Saturn.
Graham CooksonHOST
Essentially, it's a fighting game.
FrankiePANELIST
What was the last time Japan got a Looney Tunes game or a Scooby-Doo game? I wonder like they've made some.
FrankiePANELIST
Was it Sunsoft made a Bugs Bunny's ableist? There is a Game
BobinatorPANELIST
Boy Color game.
BobinatorPANELIST
That might be it.
FrankiePANELIST
Oh, you know, I meant to, we just ranked a different game similar to this that, I forgot to mention, Sunsoft did all the, and I guess Acclaim on Super Nintendo did all the, a lot of the Looney Tunes games.
FrankiePANELIST
I will say, this is better than a game we haven't ranked.
FrankiePANELIST
Porky Pig's Haunted Holiday may be the worst game I've ever looked at all of.
Dave MooreHOST
Well, the reason I asked, because if this was like a European magazine, I could understand because Fester's Quest was released in North America.
Dave MooreHOST
It was developed by Sunsoft in Japan.
Dave MooreHOST
It wasn't released in Japan.
Dave MooreHOST
It was released in North America.
9 MINS LATER
Dave MooreHOST
then the movie came out like a year later right I do think it's really interesting yeah it is it is a really good movie and I think it like totally revitalized the franchise
Ian ChandlerHOST
100% I don't think we would have the Wednesday on Netflix you know if it hadn't been for that
Dave MooreHOST
and I know like once he got the rights once the designer got the rights he like got in touch with like Sunsoft and like I can't imagine like work.
Dave MooreHOST
I can't imagine it being like the late eighties and you're building a game by like sending a Japanese studio, like your drawings and shit.
John LinnemanHOST
I'm kind of looking for some PC 98 games as well, since I got one of those recently and this caught my eye.
John LinnemanHOST
It's a copy of platoon published by Sunsoft.
John LinnemanHOST
And I found this extremely amusing because platoon is a rather serious movie and just seeing this poster like that with the Sunsoft logo for PC on there.
John LinnemanHOST
Uh, and it says it's action real-time strategy.
John LinnemanHOST
on the top there and it's a not only it's specifically the localized japanese version even which the fact that this exists is blowing my mind well there's an nes version too isn't there i think so
John LinnemanHOST
a box japanese localized pc game based on platoon like i don't know man this is weird the fact that it's
Matt PapaGUEST
published by sunsoft just adds like another letter to it
John LinnemanHOST
Especially having done the big Sunsoft video a couple years ago.
