Old Series, New Developer - Scott The Woz 

I finally figured out how Scott plans his videos: it's all one giant set up for the last second joke.

"Mario Party is like people with skin - It's freaking everywhere. " is more horrifying then it should be. 😂

Woah! I didn't know the guy from Scott's Stash had a second channel!

spyro the dragon has been passed around so many damn times im starting to think he's an orphan with a very large fortune being chased by a count

This isn’t Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash...

I am convinced this guy comes up with a joke and thinks, "how can I turn this joke into a well researched 20 minute video?"

“Scott talks about pros and cons about adoption” says the description

"when my parents give up on me, 343 takes custody" That hit way harder than it should have...

"Who better to make Ico than Ico??" Sonic Team: 👀

“Everyone is in a car now!” I see the developers took the Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts approach to game design.

I love how Scotts channel informs, makes you laugh and teaches you something new about franchises and doesn't go on for too long. It's old RU-vid gold content that doesn't just get pumped out but has alot of work put into it and I like that.

"I never trust a man who prefers Super to 6" Me: "Honey get the kids he found out"

Game Developer: Leaves series they created Montreal: "Its free real estate."

F zero. That's when you get left at the adoption center for more than a decade.

Franchise: *Exists* Old developer: *Dies* New developer: Hmmm... Let's give the main character a big ass.

Mario Party 9 was okay enough. The company tried something new, and it didn’t work. That’s okay. But the fact that the did it again is what makes it terrible. Bowser Party was pretty fun though.

Nintendo: what about a Mario party where you work together! Everyone: What the hell is wrong with you!

He always says, “Hey all, Scott here!” But we never say, “hey Scott, we’re all here [for you].” 😔😔

"Wow! A new Scott video about an interesting topic in the industry!" "Wow! You're right! Mario Party has become a cesspool of different, conflicting design choices that stray WAY too far from the original series on the N64! What was the video about again?"

*"When My Parents Give Up On Me 343 Industries Takes Custody."* I don't know if that was supposed to rhyme, but that sounded like a sick line! 😎

". . . and when my parents give up on me, 343 Industries takes custody." So relatable.

Damn, I was hoping "Old Series, New Developers" was a euphemism for a Scott video on adopted people

Let’s all just have a moment of silence for Plants Vs Zombies, completely ruined my EA pumping it full of micro transactions...

That “Couldn’t stop finishing the fight” joke really got me.

"Scott talks about the pros and cons of adoption." i need to start reading these descriptions

Important to mention: After Hudson Soft was dissolved, the main designers for Mario Party worked on the next entries for Nintendo. It's not Hudson anymore, but the same creative heads have always been involved

I was a little bit put off by Luigi's Mansion 3. Everyone I knew was saying that the game is just as good as the original and I wasn't very sure. But you perfectly described how I feel about the game. Definitely a good entry in the series, much better gameplay wise and visuals but the atmosphere and characters in the original are still unmatched. The original game felt like a huge communal family full of distant relatives and employees once lived in the mansion. And as a kid I could imagine how they must have lived together when they were all alive.

I used to hate this video. I just could not get behind the idea of a video thumbnail having a green background. But now that it’s yellow, I’m 100% on board!

"They made the worlds, they made the characters. They should know exactly what to do" *cough Sonic

6:03 before the whole "using the internet" thing, i thought the Wii U was a pretty successful console

Scott, you’re one of the only consistent parts of my life right now due to coronavirus messing everything and everyone up. Thank you so much for still uploading regularly and giving me something to watch and enjoy during these weird times!

Why does Scott have the most enjoyable and rewatchable content of any RU-vidrs

forgot one of the worst examples: Tony Hawk, Neversoft to Robomodo. _woof._

I wonder why he didn't mention Fallout, which is probably the absolute biggest change between new and old devs.

Perfect follow-up to this video, New Series, Old Developer. Discuss developers breaking away from a longstanding series and making a new ip or a dramatically different spin-off from the "main series"

"I dont trust a man who prefers Super to 6" Man. Scott's impersonations of the segregative treatment of gaming fanbase opinions is really on point. If tragically so.

That intro basically describes my parents.

Scott: “It felt like little big planet bad platforming and all” Me: *loads gun* “Slow down there buckaroo”

Yay, more ways to worry for the future of the Mario and Luigi series

HE CHANGED THE THUMBNAIL ALERT

Capcom: Giving up on literally everything. Think of it like me and schoolwork, except the schoolwork was forced upon me and I wanted nothing to do with it to begin with.

Scott: Talks about old series with new developers. Also Scott: Doesn't talk about Fallout.

“It felt like LittleBigPlanet, bad platforming and all.” Ouch “Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time, it was just Ok.” OUCH That was a real one-two punch for me personally, and I will be sending Scott my hospital bill. If money is tight, I do accept copies of FlingSmash as well.

I'm really glad you spent as much time as you did covering the Sly series! That franchise truly is something special and will always be my favorite!!

Scott: "Who makes Ico, Better than Team Ico?" Me: *Immediatly thinks of Sonic Team, who doesn't know how to make Sonic Games*

They should do that for this series, bring in somebody from Normal Boots or something, somebody other than this "Scott" character...I mean, who is this?

I still can't get over "What is this?" *slap cards* "IT'S A FISH!"

Fossil fighters frontier is a prime example of how sour a game can turn when the developers change, to the point where its literally unrecognizable, Rip my favorite childhood game 😭

I’m surprised you didn’t mention Silent Hill. Probably one of the most infamous cases

11:15 That's the power of bass

0:11 "News: The News Newspaper Edition" is my favourite Newspaper =D

The Capcom Zelda games are fantastic. They look good, they use great mechanics, and the puzzles are well designed.

When your parents give up on you Bomberman act zero

Oh no, Scott talked about ND Cube's Mario Parties, which includes Mario Party 10, and right AFTER he already had therapy for a bad Wii U game, Amiibo Festival... -Wait a minute, wasn't the next bad Wii U game supposed to be Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash?-

Pretty much how when a parent abandons a child and a foster one has come to adopt it, how they raise it will determine if they'll end up successful or not. Who knew that can be applied to video games. Thanks for the analogy, Scott!

I’m pretty sure Crash Bandicoot must have some sort of world record for number of developers. The first four games were done by Naughty Dog, after which they left the series to start Jak and Daxter. Then, Eurocom took over to make Crash Bash, then Traveller’s Tales (the ones who make all the LEGO games) created The Wrath of Cortex. While this was happening, Vicarious Visions made three handheld GBA games, as well as Crash Nitro Kart for both consoles and handheld. Then, Traveller’s Tales Oxford was created specifically to handle the Crash franchise, and the only game they made was Twinsanity. After this, Radical Entertainment took the reigns and made three more games; one built off of the engine for Simpsons Hit & Run, the other two were those mutant games that everyone hated. Handheld versions were also made by SuperVillain Studios, Amaze Entertainment, TOSE, and Virtuous. Oh, and can’t forget the DS party game by DiMPS. Years later, although the N Sane Trilogy was handled by the aforementioned Vicarious Visions, the remake for Crash Team Racing was done by Beenox, and most recently, Crash Bandicoot 4 was done by Toys For Bob. That doesn’t even mention studios that assisted development, like Activision Shanghai.

Very interesting topic for a video! One of the things I love about Scott’s videos is that he always chooses interesting topics that no one else has made a video on. That’s one of my favorite things about his channel.

I'm surprised there was nothing for DOA. The series was finally starting to be accepted with DOA4, then Itagaki left and Tecmo realized that DLC existed.

Mario party ds was where its at, loved those minigames and the boards with a little bit of nostalgia. Also played mario party 8 and the one for the 3ds and they were eh, not bad but ok.

I love Luigi's mansion dark moon, it was one of my main childhood games and I was obsessed with it. I never got to play the original until it was on the 3DS..

“Mario Party’s like people with skin, it’s f**king everywhere”

If Scoot doesn’t reunites with his parents by the end of this video, I’m gonna be sadder than an anime fan on prom night

Remember when Bethesda gave Fallout to Obsidian and made the masterpiece New Vegas then took it back and Fallout 4 got released and OH GOD FALLOUT 76

I think it would have been important to mention how certain people from Bungie and Hudsonsoft actually left their respective studios to work for 343 and NDcube. It’s never quite black and white, sometimes there’s more of the original people working on the same franchise under a different developer studio than there are original team members who actually remained in that original studio.

Having a problem with candles? Then use the new alternative: mass fires. There’s house fires, forest fires, you name it! Not only are they each different, they’re less probably less hot then candles!

I’m loving this out of context material it’s amazing

Microsoft: Make a new Halo game. Halo 3: But I finished the fight. Disney: Make a new Toy Story movie Toy Story 3: But I had THE satisfying ending. See where I'm going at here

‘’ I never trust a man who prefers super to six’’ that’s got to be up there on the list of Scott’s best catchphrases

This happened to Sakura Wars First developer: RED Entertainment Second developer: Overworks Third developer: Sonic Team/SEGA CS R&D 2

You know what game needs a new developer? Yandere Simulator.

As someone who played the Sly trilogy and loved them, I really like Sly 4. I found personally found the game just as much fun as the original trilogy. I just wish the load times and story were a lot better.

company's over here playing hot potato with crackdown

13:28 every day I feel immense pain. You not only said 'Wii Party' but showed the title screen for it too. Please, Scott. Review Wii Party.

I waited years and years for Thieves in Time. There was such a long wait between Sly 3 and Sly 4. I have never been more excited for a game to come out. I also have never been more disappointed in my life.

About Sly 4: -Most of the character redesigns were passable I guess, but they made Carmelita look like an uncanny DeviantArt wet dream. -The writing and character development in the first three games was insanely good for a 3D platformer series. The writing in 4 feels like a bad Saturday morning cartoon. The personalities were made flat as a pancake, especially Carmelita, who went from being a dedicated but conflicted cop to a token girlfriend. -Nothing truly new was done with the gameplay. -The 2D cutscenes went from bold, comic book-inspired art to, once again, generic Saturday morning cartoon. -The story ended on a cliffhanger that left no impact because the entire story had been too weak to build any investment.

I got a car ad at 13:43 😂

I'd like to mention Kingdom Hearts as a game series that changed development teams from Square's Tokyo Team to Osaka Team. The games after Kingdom Hearts 2 have floaty controls.

Looking forward to Nintendo Switch: Four Years In

You should retitle the video: "I wanted to complain about modern mario party games but there wasn't enough content so I made the video about new developers taking on old franchises and stuck in the mario party bit at the end. Edit: this many likes? I didn’t even think this was that funny

6:04 I really liked Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time. I thought it was sick. Sly Cooper is one of those characters that I stole some of my personality from.

@10:19 I love the entire series. It has always amused me that everyone complained about the time limits, 2 came out, everyone complained about the time limits, 3 came out everyone started complaining the time limits were too lax, 4 came out and everyone started to complain there was no time limits... >.< I always personally loved the mission time limit mechanics in the first game... shame the games controls needed a bit of refining, even for when it was released. But that time limit meant you had to plan ahead for what you wanted each particular run to be about. Was this run going to be the story run, where you get the proper ending? Or is it going to be the run you try to save as many survivors as you possibly can? Or maybe it's your exploration run!

13:35 what’s weird if you look at the credits most of the staff from the first 8 returned for 9 and 10

Hey all: One of those Luigi's Mansion die-hards here! I love the first and 3rd with all my heart, and dark moon was just ok... I wish they would have held on to those first ghosts style though.

“What the hell kinda board game do you all move around in a car”. The game of life.

The sly series is literally godfather with an extra entry

*Sees title* *Has PTSD of Bungie leaving Halo*

Next Level Games: "They're worthy of making Luigi's Mansion!"

The one case where it worked really well for me was Sly 4. Yea, a lot of it is probably nostalgia but man I love that game.

1:14 I wasn’t aware Minish Cap was done by Capcom. Wow.

Sumo Digital were rushed by sony to make LittleBigPlanet 3 in time for Black Friday. But honestly, minus all the bugs and game-breaking glitches, I feel LBP3 was fun.

Luigi's mansion: maaaaaaaan this game is short Literally one year later... Animal crossing: yay this game takes like infinite years to complete :D

12:31 That is legit the texture of iron blocks in Minecraft

@15:30 "Whhhhaaaaaaaaaaat the hell is this?"

Candles made by Madcatz would probably make the room darker.

6:13 I'm pretty sure those bell sound are from Sonic the Fighters

"It felt like Little Big Planet, bad platforming and all." Excuse me that's illegal

Mario Party: The Top 100 is probably the most Nintendo has ever hurt me.

10:49 Capcom Vancouver was so _dead,_ they misspelled _instead._

I'm 2 years late on this one but I live in Montreal and can confirm

I feel like there's something to be said about how Halo's continuations tried to change it to chase trends, and had... issues. Whereas Gears 4 and 5 have been more their own thing, and done comparatively well.
