Beating EVERY N64 Game - Super Robot Wars 64 (89/394) 

Gundam game? Hardly! This is a *mecha* game that happens to contain Gundam.

@@ShinMajin But it's the most well known mecha IP, unless Transformers counts.

This channel is like a box of chocolates you never know what you gonna get

@@Xpwnxage why? last i checked gundam had almost 2x the revenue compared to transformers.

Crazy how much effort he's put in to cover this video. Well done @thabeast721!

And I for one... Am here for it.

He made a two VHS feature film. Titanic comes to mind. And my first titties lmao😅

Pretty much

hahahahahaha that's hilarious

yes time is funny Human, mwahahahaha bork.

Not inaccurate seeing as this game came out at around the 20th anniversary of the original _Gundam_

​@@KruelAidManAnd now this game is more than 20 years old itself

@@A_Person_64 remaster never tho

It’s always so fun when SRW pops up where you don’t expect it. I personally didn’t even know there was one for N64 so this episode totally took me for surprise and I loved it lol.

so far the only one i've started playing is og saga on ds, and it's amazing. you don't fight in mechs like this one, your characters do juggle combos bouncing enemies off the wall. i thought it looked too easy but it's decently challenging. i downloaded every super robot game i could find with a complete english translation, probably at least a dozen on snes, gba, and ds.

@@Jack_80 Btw, Endless Frontier leads into SRW OGs The Moon Dwellers for the PS4, in case you play that one: there's a version in english released only for Asia, and also it's a sequel to the original two SRW OGs, released initially for the Game Boy Advance and remade for the PS2 in a collection of sorts with the two games; they're very much like this one but Definitely more refined, 100% recommend them if SRW's fully original shenanigans are to your liking

just found moon dwellers and a few other srw games in english for ps4 for $40-50. may get it sometime, months from now. now a gaming chair is the next thing on my list, and the next legend of heroes game that comes out in july on ps4. basically a sequel to trails of cold steel 4.

@@Jack_80 that one has story elements that reference one of the OG games OG2 which did get a release in english but as well it had a remake on playstation that I think has an english patch around. it has a sequel with an english patch that takes some more elements from OG gaiden or OG 2nd (yeah there's 2 2's since OG1&2 were combined to make the remake) then when those are done there's a detour to Project X Zone that's canon which has gameplay melding SRW and Endless Frontier. after all that you go to Moon Dwellers and I think that's the story so far

Based on this comment I decided to read the two characters fan wiki pages. And I think even your comment is an understatement too 😂

@@njstuckey tell me

@@surthing6711it is the year 0079 of the universal century, a half century has passed since humanity has sent their burgeoning population into habitats known as space colonies where they would be born and live… and die. Side 3 the cluster of colonies furthest from the earth declared a war of independence against the earth christening themselves the Principality of Zeon. Initial fighting lasted only a month but both sides lost half their respective populations, people were horrified of the atrocities committed in the name of independence. 8 months have passed since the fighting has started… and they are at a stalemate. And that’s only the circumstance behind the meeting of the 2 where Char an ace pilot granted his own ship and troops is investigating the earth federation building their own secret weapon on a civilian space colony. This is where Amuro a civilian who’s the son of the head engineer of the project would take the secret weapon the RX78-2 Gundam to fend off Zeon and it proves too powerful to beat but Char’s skills are too much for Amuro to beat. That starts the chase and various meetings the 2 would have as Char would pursue Amuro and the federation ship he is on along with the colony’s refugees. While Amuro would learn the horrors of war and the courage of soldiers who fight, Char would take the time to take his revenge on the ruling family of Zeon believing them responsible for killing his Father. The character connecting the 2 is Sayla Char’s sister working on the same ship as Amuro and Char still cares for her well-being. The 2 would find another that connects them Lala Soon who is a Newtype, an empath able to connect with people without exchanging words but the war the 2 fight would take her life causing the 2 to break down due to the connection the 2 had with her. The 2 would have a final duel at A Baou Qu and disappear from public life. Char would be with Zeon remnants and help form a new organization to face against the Earth Federation’s cruel task force the Titans and end up taking up a young boy named Kamikle Bidan as a protege seeing potential in him and wants to steer him in a direction better than himself. From here Char would go under the name Quattro Bajeena. Amuro meanwhile is a recluse under house arrest by the federation pulled back into the fighting and joining another anti federation group reuniting with Char and reflecting upon their lives. While uneasy the 2 would work together for the time being. Quattro as Char would make an impassioned speech in front of the federation council and global TV revealing the crimes of the federation’s Independent task force as well as talking of humanity’s place in the universe referring to Newtype theory as humanities future leaving the cradle of earth embracing the stars. Now the final battle with the titans and the true return of Zeon as Neo Zeon occurs where Quattro goes missing and Kamille is rendered in a vegetative state Char would not be seen for almost a decade returning after Neo Zeon’s defeat reorganizing and leading it to force humanity to leave earth by making the surface uninhabitable. Char has lost faith in humanity and believes they must be forced to leave and progress. He sends a new technology to Amuro who has joined a new far more just federation task force organization and wants to have a true final battle to their rivalry. Char has not moved on from Lalah’s death and blames Amuro who’s blade ended her life. Amuro would prevail but the final asteroid that would completely devastate earth has already launched so Amuro would take Char’s cockpit and try to push the asteroid back and though foolish others would follow suit trying their best both federation and Neo Zeon alike pushing the asteroid. The new technology Char sent is one able to take the empathic abilities of new types which Char and Amuro become in 0079 and make it tangible force. The wills of everyone wanting to save earth creates a warm light that creates a true miracle and forces the asteroid back but Amuro and Char would disappear and never be seen again after that moment their legends echoing across history from there on… AND THAT is only the most briefest of summaries of their history

Time for a fun fact! *reaches in pocket* Wha....I F**** HATE THAT ONE!! HATE IT!

I love your Kirby dream course videos!

It's a fever dream at this point

Earth Sphere AC 195

I cannot believe how dedicated he is, when he gets his final game complete I'm gonna donate to his Patreon

There are some 50+ Super Robot Wars games, a couple of them in English - the latest one is even on Steam. So as a Gundam fan, you've missed out on a lot of masterpiece crossover madness, I highly recommend looking into the series!

tell me about it

Commercials

I love comments like yours. I think quite a few of these N64 games will have specific fandoms, and it’s really cool that this series has reached some of you. I’m sure Thab was hoping for that outcome. You’re also awesome for sharing it with the rest of your fandom. :) Edit: By the way, I’m just a huge Mario Maker fan who happened to give Thab’s N64 challenge a chance and binged all the episodes. Even though I don’t even like N64 graphics lol.

@@supersexysadie SRW is actually a window into an extremely long running franchise. There was a major content release for the newest one less than a year ago. It's much bigger in Japan, but there's a small but super devoted western fanbase.

Love me some FZ

@@supersexysadie Nobody really likes the N64 graphics. We didn’t even back in 1996. After the initial “wow” factor of Mario 64 wore off, we all kinda knew it was janky. I think people were tricked for a little bit longer with the PS1. But I really like the 5th generation because it showed the importance of gameplay over graphics. I’d rather play a game that was fun as hell but looked like dog shit than a beautiful game that put me to sleep.

@@leeartlee915 the diference is, if you compare early n64 games with later releases, you wont see much diference. but its 100% not the case with the psx. if you compare something like ff7 with chrono cross for example, its a massive jump in visual quality. and even later games like ff ix or vagrant story were insane lookers. the ease to program made the psx more capable in the long run, even though it was an inferior machine(visual power wise).

It’s the dry monotone delivery that does it for me

Wait when we get to the Starcraft playthrough

@@cthulhusol I did not see Starcraft and his play through list

Starcraft is 142. So we'll see it on RU-vid eventually...

@@jakelott6520 right you are. Thanks. I thought sheet 1 was the already played list. What's difference between sheet 1 and 2?

Not to mention writing the script for this video man, damn.

1. Bro Made His Doctoral Thesis On This Game 🎮👾☠️💀 2. Sis Made His Doctoral Thesis On This Game 🎮👾☠️💀 3. Brother Made His Doctoral Thesis On This Game 🎮👾☠️💀 4. Sister Made His Doctoral Thesis On This Game 🎮👾☠️💀

That's some admirable demonstration of discipline right there. *binges the whole thing in one go himself*

I came on to say the same!

That was also my plan when I started watching this 2 and half hours ago. Whoops lol

took me 2 weeks! watched his other games inbetween

Ain't it tho?

sleep well!

@@CrawYT thank you and goodmorning!

Yes! I’m glad I’m not the only one lol. I’m always having to try and find where I fell asleep on videos the next day.

Same but I usually try to fall asleep to videos I've already watched at least once. For example, Jrose11's Pokemon challenges are my go to bed time videos. I've seen every video multiple times but I always watch them once before I use them for sleeping.

I’ve fallen asleep to this 4 times already. Getting those views up at least

You did all of that in two hours?

If you’re in your 40s and still full of hopes and dreams, you must be commenting from another timeline. That’s pretty neat.

@@cartervandenberg4771 I just retired from my job at 65 , I was 29 when I started this video

I guess you're talking about Latooni?

@@joaovictornunessaraiva1525 yeah, leona too though i guess

@@ianh1504 She's veeeery good, her Guarlion is good at dodging

@@joaovictornunessaraiva1525 i like her in the R-Gun, shes got great will gains and telekinesis, use a focus and she can basically solo entire maps if she doesnt run out of energy

That's the bread and butter of the SRW series. It gets really funny in games that have multiple post apocalyptic anime trying to justify how they all happened to the same Earth.

The funniest it got was when Code Geass and Gurren Lagann debuted in Z2 and they had to invent a whacked out reason so to why there are two Japans while over in Africa there somehow was an underground society of people that barely knew the surface world.

The core problem in SRW stories is that they are trying to cram 15+ different series story paths into one game. There is often SO much going on and SO many characters having a conversation at once during dialogues that it is incredibly easy to get confused and only get a gist of what is actually going on. Sometimes they can make it work well( I believe the alpha series has the most well put together arc) and sometimes it’s just a jumbled up mishmash.

This game didn't have the treasure spots, just bugs and Transfer Pack integration. I've got 3 different game guides, I think there's a 4th!

the last game released this year. so yeah, its still going strong.

probably less than 10%. he said there are multiple different paths and it would probably take 300+ hours to 100% it.

I lolled. Me too, brother, me too.

this will, low key, end up being one of the best videos in this series.

This dude rules RU-vid

wow, had not noticed that before.

2nd only to Starcraft 64 as of now

is it really that much longer? i thought 40-60 missions were the normal length.

@@marcosdheleno yes, 40-60 (60 is a bit longer but still not crazy), 64 can get up to 100

The latest entry, Super Robot Wars 30, is available in English on Steam!

If your interested in this series here's a list of games that are in english off the top of my head: SRW OG (Gameboy advance) SRW OG2 (Gameboy Advance) SRWJ (Gameboy advance) SRW OG Endless frontier (Nintendo DS) SRW W (Nintendo DS) SRW OG Moon Dwellers (PS4) SRW V (PS4/Switch/Steam) SRW X (PS4/Switch/Steam) SRW T (PS4/Switch) SRW 30 (PS4/Switch/Steam) Project X Zone (3DS) Project X Zone 2 (3DS) The project X Zone games are sort of spin offs that are in canon to the OG timeline so i thought i would list them as well. About half of these are just fan translations that require emulation but the ones playable on PS4 and Switch are actual official english releases.

@@Klonoahedgehog dont forget you can probably put a gba/ds emulator in smart phones as well.

@@Klonoahedgehog Adding onto this there are also -Super Robot Wars (Gameboy) -Super Robot Wars 2 (Nes/GBA) -Super Robot Wars 3 (SNES) -Super Robot Wars EX (SNES) -Masou Kishin 1 (SNES) -SRW GC (Gamecube) -Endless Frontier Exceed (DS) -SRW OGs (PS2) -SRW A Portable (PSP) In addition several games have basic menu translations, and you can find let's plays with translated game scripts.

looooooooool

Some real discipline to not quit on this game

All in 32 MB. Imagine if they got one of the 64 MB carts!

@@bduddy55555 Oh gosh I don't want to think about it, lol.

@@bduddy55555 With 64MB every character could have a talking and eye-blinking animation, maybe even a couple facial expressions.

NGL: This one made my winkle wobble.

This video is so long, I'll find out in a day or two. Very curious now lol

@@brendanwilson8977 it's worth the wait

Lol this comment 😂

and yet this game is lacking so much on Akurasu, how did he get this much translation from the limited amount of info on the site?

Still going on. You can get the latest game on steam

Super Robot Wars T has Gunbuster, it has an OFFICIAL english release, and it's really good. Worth checking out!

The devs are aware that Mecha anime is a niche genre nowadays so they've expanded outwards and cover franchises that vaguely fit the mold of the series. Some example of that include Cowboy Bebop, Ultraman, Nadia the secret of blue water and one of the game had some Power rangers pop up.
