CLAYFIGHTER IS TOO DIFFICULT... 

Clay fighters has the same mechanics as samurai Shodown. Damage you deal is based on the character’s “sweet spot” for each character, you deal 2x damage on counter attacks, and damage is like dice roll(damage is random at times). If you counter a fighter with your character’s sweet spot you can deal 50-70% damage in one hit.

My bet is the playable characters were sped up for the "Tournament Edition" and the boss was untouched, leaving the boss character ironically the worst in the cast.

Dude. OMG. Clay Fighter. When I was a kid, I signed up for a tournament, I believe at Blockbuster, for Clay Fighter. Thinking it'd be good for honing my skills, I decided to play the game on hard. I literally got so frustrated, I think against The Blob, I cried. I fought him over and over and over, I don't know how many times, and couldn't win. It may have been the first time I felt overwhelming frustration from a video game. So, seeing Justin Wong struggle with CF too, kinda makes me feel a little validated about just how freaking hard this game can be! Thanks for the therapy session, Justin ^_^

I will never not laugh at Justin talking about chip damage, frame advantage, tiers, and cross-ups in a game that was probably developed by a couple of drunks over a long weekend.

Psycologist: Shin Tiny doesnt exist, he cant hurt you Shin Tiny:

Now try Clayfighter 63 1/3 Sculptors Cut.

The Blob and Bad Mr. Frosty are S-Tier. CLASSIC

I know the focus of this video is how hard the game is, but can we talk about how impressive it is that the sound design is as good as it is for a SNES game? like I'm genuinely surprised how uncompressed that announcer sounds. Also if I remember it right it has a full vocal theme with lyrics and everything. The only other fighting game I think that did this on the SNES is ki.

This game was nightmarishly hard when i was younger. But if you pick The Blob and just spam buzzsaw, you can easily cheese arcade mode.

Like everyone else is saying, clayfighter 63 1/3 is a must play. Also, this just reminded me of fighter's destiny, another N64 fighter

This was originally made for tournaments; it was a Blockbuster exclusive for the Blockbuster Video Game Championships in the 90s. It was really annoying because you couldn't skip the map screen like in the "normal" version between fights, which really slowed down how far you could progress in the time limit since it was unfortunately just about fighting the CPU.

12:20 hadn’t even made it to The Blob. This is such a reward as a normal human child who tried to beat this monster. A pro is going AGHHH!

Gosh, the nightmares that this series gave me as a kid will always stay with me. (Mostly from the N64 game.) I had a weird fear of claymation when I was little, but this game'll always hold a special place in my heart.

14:05 the exactly moment when Justin eats his own worlds and recived a value lesson hahahahaha. #BusAss GG's Justin and Tiny for fun!

Love that you tried this game out! I played it extensively as a kid. The CPU is really ridiculous in what it is capable of on hard mode. They do almost double normal damage with their moves and in chip, they can rapid moves that take charge in a way that would make even CPU Guile from SF2 shake his head, and projectile characters can even fire off multiple projectiles, at different speeds, when the player can only have one projectile on screen at a time (except Blue Suede Goo's "Don't Be Cruel Now" move, which players can also do and always sends 4 notes out). On multiple occasions I can recall, Bonker would get so crazy with the computer rapidly giving him instructions that I heard about 5 overlapping grunts and he ended up jumping as though doing the body press, but he just idled in his stance for the entire jump arc. XD And N. Boss is really weird. Sometimes, he just kind of jumps around and doesn't do anything like he did with you this time, but others he will just camp at the other side of the screen and projectile you to death. He also has a terrifying hold that usually means a round loss if you're caught in it, but he didn't use it this time.

Where most kids grew up in the 90s/early 2000s with Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat as their first fighting game, Clay Fighter Sculptor's Cut on the N64 was my first fighting game ever. And at the time, I didn't know it was similar to Killer Instinct until I played the original KI a decade later. This also introduced me to Earthworm Jim and Booger Man for the first time. And correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I remember hearing that Sculptor's Cut is one of the rarest N64 games of all time and I am not planning to sell my copy anytime soon

It’s really entertaining to see Justin going back and forth between excitement and bewilderment. 😁😫😁😫😁😫

Wong: "I Don't think I'll lose in this game..." Also Wong: "Tiny is cooking 🍳 me bro..."

im so glad you are diving into this series ! This game is hilarious hahah. like the other guys say clayfighter 64 is great as well. Look forward to you trying that one bro.

I played a lot of the n64 version (clayfighter 63 and 1/3). It played like Killer instinct. Really solid game.

They said they were gonna remake/remaster/something Clayfighter and I hope to god it actually happens I love this game series so much.

Fun fact, there is a clay fighters fan game in development called Clay fighters Resculpted

One wild thing about this- It seemed to be designed for dynamic hitboxes, where damage depends on the range and angle you land your hit at. Console limitations made it more of a mess than anything else though.

praise the taffy

Never got to play the TE for this one, but looks good. But I would absolutely love a C2 Judgement Clay tournament!

my very first fighting game, because mom wouldn't let me have Street Fighter because it was violent. awww, nostalgia

Took a break from commenting BUT this was one of my favorite series as a kid, super hard but also taught me alot. Nice to see it getting some love, Clayfighters 64 is the best one imo Also WONG/YIPES/MVC2/COMMENTARY 😂

Gawd! The Nostalgia from this ^^ Great vid & loved every second of this.

Bonker has an easy corner infinite in Tournament Edition. It's been so long that I can't remember the exact details, but it involves his normal where his head extends forward.

It looks like there are two things about damage going on here. 1) damage is somewhat randomized, DP does between 1/8 lifebar and 1/2. 2) the last 1/3 of the lifebar has the same amout of hit points as the first 2/3.

"Clayfighters 2: Judgement Clay" still one of the best parody titles I've ever read.

I played this as a kid. Bad Mr frosty

Clayfighter 63 1/3 next!

Random stuff aside, the game is really fun. I was expecting you lose a few matches with random stuff if you ask me, happy that you covered this game.

That final boss is trash until it grabs you. Instant death. No exaggeration: You will instantly lose unless your mashing game is insane, and after you get out, it can choose to just grab you again right as you land.

Laughed so hard when Bonker went Bonkers 😂

"My man." , "My man..." , "My man!" ... ALL the times! But that one time at 8:58 lol... "My man, What!?" and Blue Suede Goo goes "Hey what the hell man!?" XD

I remember Blob being top tier in this game simply because of that BS buzzsaw move. 😂

I actually loved and grinded this game hard as a kid. I still have the coveted cartridge for my Super Nintendo… def big nostalgia points here. But the thing about nostalgia is u only remember the good and not the cheating ass A.I.

I rented this at Blockbuster in the mid 90's when it came out. Still a replayable classic no doubt and the Intro song is epic..

God I'd love to see this franchise try one more time, now that we're at a level of tech where claymation could really show off

Played this game heavy.

Wong: Bonker is just free a few seconds later Bonker: i hear someone talking trash

0:11 What a comeback indeed

Straight from the Jankyard.. Wong sayin “Blue Suede Goo”

Hearing the announcer shout Ickybud Clay brings me baaack. Thanks for the vid Justin!

Been waiting for this. Thanks for making an already awesome day that much better brother. Cherry on top.

Hahaha 🤣! That first one , I just heard muda muda muda !

I would _love_ to see this played in tournaments. Jank-ass games (wrapped in a charming presentation) that would more than likely frustrate the competitors are a huge win for audiences.

Blue Suede Goo: "Watch the hair, man..."

0:00 "Let's go Justin!" Aw, he's going to lose, ain't he?

Yes Justin is finally playing Clay fighter on SNES that's one of my favorite fighting games as well I love this.

I don't recall this being hard at all growing up. Especially with the absurd NES games that came before it like Ghost and Goblins, Contra and Castlevania. Is this the first time playing this game man? This is one of those games you never forgot.

Haven't played this game in years!!! Good times, lol. Happy your enjoying it kinda wish this series got a reboot

I bursted out laughing a few times. Great stuff.

I had the N64 Clay Fighter game was I was a youngster. That game was soo much fun bro.

I had the game growing up! Was a nice change of pace from Mortal Kombat/Street Fighter! ❤‍🔥

"whoever likes lafty taffy" Dude I work for Ferrara. MY BUILDING MAKES THAT SHIT!

Clayfighter 63-1/3 was soooo good. Def try that next if you can

This was that 1994-95 weird period of movies and video games where things were so dark and strange.

That's awesome you played this. I never did as a kid and always saw the ads in the magazines. But I passed everytime.

"Is this like Shin Taffy?" 😂😂😂

Any boss would be disappointing after Shin Tiny 🤣

When Justin said vector circle I think he was talking about the vectorman game

😯 I’m surprised you played this game. I used to play this on Sega Genesis.

Clay fighters was my first fighter game! I loved the heck out of it

lets see Justin take a deep dive on Weaponlord please.

Thats how we feel when you do Hail storm beserker charge on incoming.

I play the blob but yes. Blue Sway Goo kicks kind of prove the the hit boxes for attacks is set to "on". So if anyone gets caught in it, its their own damn fault. Also there might be a hack where the game is fixed up a bit.

The reason damage randomly was high is the game increases damage for combos. That's why your close dp did so much. It was 2 hits. I used to beat the boss every day after school

I prefared Clay fighter 2. I remember renting it at blockbuster than getting a happy meal from McDonald's and playing this game!! Good times!!

That Taffy was using fake stun more than I've ever seen the CPU use it.

Man I love these videos with jank ass fighting games

Laffy taffy the candy is fire Justin trippin

This was my jam clayfighter 64

I remember clayfighter!!! I used to have this game on the old Super Nintendo System and I used to main the Elvis guy.

The panda editor likes laffy taffy 😩😂😂

Played this game as part of a tournament series they had at blockbuster in the 90s

12:18 that stage's backgrpund making me uncomfortable lol

Man, huge nostalgia trip for me. I loved this game.

I read blue suede god and was like, “checks out.”

Remember renting this at blockbuster whenever Fatal Fury was checked out.

Didn't this one have clayalties? I remember doing them back in the day.

and just to make things better. the name of ickybod clay's uppercut is called the "boohoo-ken".

This was such a hilarious video. My favorite J Wong video so far. As for the characters, I'd say once you know the game enough. That The Blob and Bad Mr Frosty are easily the best in the game. Tiny probably being third. I've found some infinites and wacky combos, traps, etc. Game is wild. Even if you take it semi seriously it's still a great game. Just broken beyond belief, only character I'd say is utter trash would be Helga. I don't think she has any redeeming qualities at all. Also, in case anyone didn't know. The motion for Blue Suede Goo's multi note fireball is the motion for a lot of those crazy SNK game supers. Crazy stuff. Maybe I should dust this game off and make a combo video for this game.

Considering the marketing campaign of this game was all about dunking the competition, is kinda ironic how the franchise disappeared so fast while the others lasted even more if they aren't still on production. Sometimes I wonder what would happen if they make a gritty reboot like KI or MK9.

Mad props to keeping your cool the whole game, I would have lost my shit to much.

Nah! Potemken hit you with the TAFFY!🤣

I honestly don’t remember the snes version’s arcade ladder being that handicapped towards the player. But I do remember the game being a whole lot of fun to play with my Brothers and cousins.

You're finally playing Clayfighter!!! 😲 And thank you for showcasing the superior SNES version. Unfortunately during the Wii era, Virtual Console gave us the jank Genesis version. 🙄 5:59 - "This game is way better than Street Fighter 6" - JWong

14:12 He sounds so defeated

would love to see Justin play Body Blows from the Amiga days for jankyard or something from the bloody roar series...I would love to hear his opinion on both of them! haha

Clayfigter 63 1/3 was my game brotha I love how they had ultra combos like killer instinct

Damn I was just playing this yesterday for the nostalgia and then I see this XD

Laffy Taffy is awesome, especially the grape and green apple flavors.

I want a modern clay fighter with stop motion...ironically this game seemed like Killer Instinct before it was killer instinct.

hearing this game brings me back

Man Blue Suede Goo is such a genius character. Ty for the trip down memory lane.

loved the vid xD so much nostalgia too xP

Yes, Yes YES!!! I loved this game as a kid!
