ah, my childhood game. Me and my brother used to play this together, I'd be the frog character and I'd stay at the base while enhancing both his damage and resistance. Now my brother's and adult.
Did you know that almost all of the Patapons are voiced by the director's (Hiroyuki Kotani) kid who they credited in the end of every game as Blico? Its because they didn't have the money to hire a chorus of children like they wanted to.
Oh look who's here! Man i love Dark Covenant :D but let it be known, right here and now, that i absolutely despise anime, so a couple songs from the mod are a huge miss for me. Nevertheless, I'm enjoying everything about DxD and I'm beyond thankful with you and Madwig for creating that jewel.
These games are literally the only reason my family still owns a PSP. I'm an adult who lives in a college dorm and I still want to play Patapon despite that PSP not being in my possession here and now. Despite being a decade old, it never died. Circa 13 years ago I had the Patapon demo installed and ground it to dust by playing through it at least 10 times, squeezing all the content it would allow from its limited scope. 12 years ago I got Patapon 2 for my birthday. I slowly power-walked through the story by abusing the broken Tatepon Hero invincibility and brute-forced my way onward with an under-leveled army until finally getting stuck on Dettankarmen, the story's final boss. I lost interest for some years. About 8 years ago I got hooked on the grind. Faced with an adversary I hadn't seen for a long time and had chalked up to immense proportions in my mind, I farmed. And farmed. And farmed. I finally destroyed the demon at the end. Only now do I realize it had taken so long because I simply didn't want the journey to end. But I wasn't done. I maxed everyone in all my squadrons. Unlocked every mask. Collected every item. Beat every boss 50 times over. At least 6 years ago my sister finally got hooked on the same grind I did. There's something so intoxicating about watching your army lay waste to everything in sight. This is why we like Patapon 2 over 3. It's so much more relaxing. The quantity of damage numbers. Building every unit in your army to maximize their performance and compensate for weaknesses. My sister saw the same thing I did. There was so little we bonded over back then, but this was one of them. 3 years ago we finally got our hands on Patapon 3. After years of mopping the floor with everything from 2, the challenge of the "new" game was foreign to us. But the farming is somehow so much more daunting a task. The number of customization options and random drops would instead have my sister and I take different approaches to our loadout even as we both played through simultaneously with the same original mindset from Patapon 2. Neither of us have completed the game yet because we're now busy and also playing other games in our free time. But somehow every family vacation for the past several years, that same pearl grey PSP comes out. Outdated. Obsolete. Seldom seen. Well-used. Never forgotten. And the hammer of drums is heard through shared earbuds in an airport or hotel somewhere once more. May it stay that way for years to come.
@@kultan1516 It's difficult since we're both at different colleges and the PSP is with our parents. But we actually have another family trip this week! It's been over a year yet again, but I'd be damned if that little handheld didn't see the light of day again. I know it's still there. Maybe this time we'll finally beat it...
@@luckytenth6827 you can try playing it using the ppsspp emulator on the phone, theres tutorials online on how to get it, although I'm not sure if it works on the IOS.
As a Tondenga main as well, I understand why, cause the class is freaking broken lmao, not only are they tanky and resists knockback, they also spin hammers at enemies cause fück them lmao.
I mean if its to hard go tondenga but if you want a challenge pick a different class if you wanna go hardcore go 2 pingrek 1 charribassa and 1 MASSIVE shield
Dude... DUDE I am MAJORLY in love with this video, you have no idea! Patapon was one of my MAIN childhood games when I was a kid, and only two people (my brother and one of my friends) even cared enough to play it with me and we were in awe by it. Cut to YEARS later now, I am STILL playing this trilogy alongside people in the fandom (yes we're still going strong) and having a blast because of all the challenges we come up with on the spot, and all the little details we notice in the main lore of the games. I'm sharing this video with everyone I know, this is such a good explanation of the series and I thank you so much for that, you're getting a SUB for your content as well!!
@@ammagon4519 Heck yeah it does, dude! There's a public server dedicated to Patapon in general, one dedicated to the fan-made game Patafour, and another HUGE one that's made for playing multiplayer with others! (Though, I must admit it's not really my thing, since I'm not used to being in places with such a high member count.) For actually getting the games, you can get the entire trilogy easily on Vimm's Lair. PPSSPP is the main emulator I use when playing them :) Vimm's Lair: vimm.net/?p=vault PPSSPP: www.ppsspp.org/
@@rosekittyartist1019 holy freaking sh*t thanls dude, I do have the game and emulator though and I've made a lot of progress, I just didn't know there's still a community out there.
@@ammagon4519 There's a bustling community for everything if you look hard enough! Patapon is one of them, and I'm glad to be apart of it. Glad you're still enjoying the games too, dude! :D For those curious, here's the fangame Patafour I was talking about, their (Discord) server link is on their website. :) Patafour: patafourgame.com/
tbh I'm just waiting for the remastered version to come out AND THEN introduce friends to it, I remember when patapon 3 came out in 2011 Holy shit that was the most Hype I've ever had
Patapon is the hidden king of rhythm games. A story-based rhythm RPG with a simplistic, yet awesome art style, and the most addictive earworms probably ever? It's been years and the missile battle theme, spin spin miss, is still stuck in my head. Police sirens have never been the same since.
I remember my first time playing Patapon 3 as a kid after completing 1 and 2 and just looking at the opening animation and thinking DAAAAAAAMN This is gonna be goooood
DUUUDE YYAAAS this game was on another level compared to other rhythm games back then. like this music really be hitting different. I'm surprised and very pleased to know that you played Patapon too :))
Personally I love Patapon, Patapon 3 was one of my very first rhythm games and it sparked my love for them (even though i don't play them as often now). Creating an unstoppable army in Patapon 2 was a great feeling, and getting a tactical shitton of loot makes the experience so much better.
@@zeoniaatlantia5050 I did! Patapon 1 was very good. Transfering the save to Patapon 2 kinda felt like cheating tho cause of the absurd amount of materials i had at the beginning.
My problem with 3 was turning every unit into a Hero. I liked the scale of all the little guys running around doing all the damage numbers and getting to equip more of them in general, and the camps in 1 & 2 were much more lively with all the other minigames you could play for resources, and the 'pons dancing around the head of the most recent boss kill I hope the remasters come to Steam some day like many PS exclusives have been, would love to play them again without the input lag that emulators have.
Yooo I'm looking back into this game and I will state my resume. 1000+ hours into 3 and 200+ hours into the DEMO of 2 and hundreds more after I bought it.
Dude you should have the discord server where you can play online with others in pc or phone, an also I don't expect someone to still sponsored this game tnk you my guy
Patapon is hands down my favorite video game series of all time, too bad nobody takes me seriously when I'm trying to convince everybody how great it is and that they should try it out Also, gosh, finally someone made a consistent review of this series. You just got yourselves a new subscriber 'ere
You made me cry you beautiful butterfly, So much emotions and nostalgia coming out now. You legit made me want to replay patapon the whole Trilogy, am gonna download ppsspp emulator and play it. And i just foundout there's a fan game of patapon that continues the story patafour. Can't believe am gonna play a game that i was playing when i was 8yo
dude finally someone covers patapon, i have all 3 games on psp and bought the first 2 on ps4, really hope the third one comes to ps4, because its my favorite one :)
New member of the Patapon cult and that first game did something to me, but I just can’t shake it off. It’s burrowed its way into my brain and my heart, and I think I’m here for the long haul now. Here’s to a Patapon 3 Remastered. Here’s to Ratatan. And here’s to all the wonderful people still playing these wonderful games. I never owned a PSP. Was never lucky enough to buy one. You better believe I will do everything I can to finally fix that.
I started playing patapon 1 again and im gonna play em all in order again it sucks when you try to convince people to play but...they just dont wanna learn abt it or take their time to acknowledge it
I played Patapon so much as a kid and kinda forgot about it and now I suddenly remembered it and searched YT for any Patapon related videos, now I'm here. Guess, I'm not the only one who played this game cause I've never heard anyone else talking about it
MAN Patapon was my childhood, I still have my patapon 1,2, and 3 disks for my PSP as well as it patapon 3 for the PS Vita I remember swapping the disk between me and my sister so we could do multiplayer since we only had the one. First played it when I was still in elementary school and here I am a few years out of high school still as much of a fan as I was back then I always come back to it every year or so and will forever pray for a Patapon 4, even if it never comes I still have the years of good memories with it Honestly this video is making me wanna re-visit it again, and maybe try playing with any uberheroes besides tondenga (Oh sorry I mean: PURE UNFAIR DAMAGE)
I thought everybody knew Patapon back in the day, cuz OH BOY! did I played this game when I was little, it's one of the games the build my childhood this game is just.... Pata Pata Pata Pon!
That's one of the things i like about being from Poland, Patapon series there was BIG BOOM, i think it's one of the most praised old games. Even madwig is from poland xD
this game was a staple in my childhood and teenage years. never played 3, but 1 and 2 were hands down top 3 games of my childhood. its a crying shame that barely anyone knows about it.
Nostalgy is hitting me soo hard. Just the fact that i was born in same year as Patapon 1 was comeing out, and that my brother "introduced" me to the game i'm 2013.
I PLAYED THIS GAME SO DAMN MUCH AS A KID. i ADORE it. i only just got my psp up and working again, and its SO FUCKING GOOD, and i love it. ive been playing it nonstop for the past week.
Still waiting on my patapon 3 remaster for my trophies! XD I really loved the evolution tree in 2, almost gave the game a pokemon collection/upgrade type vibe
Support for you all the way. I feel for you for the struggle of convincing friends to play this awesome series. Here's hoping for a 'Patapon Collection' for the PS5!!
god im so happy so happy someone made a video sharing the pure phat beats of this game. there's no game quite like the patapon series, im dying for a sequel.
Burh there is a patapon Fandom ;-; I had alot of fun with these games as a kid, when my dad kept his games around he would let me play his psp and the first game that caught my eye was patapon, I spent hours on that game but unfortunately I didn't have anyone else care about that game at all except my dad who helped me keep the rhythm by tapping his guitar because i kept messing up on the rain juju. Replaying the remaster rn and I can still feel that rhythm.
The only reason I don't wanna play Patapon again is because I do not think I can handle the emotional storm I might experience and that is exactly why I am digging my PSP out from the closet. Also your vid became popular among the Patapon Community which lead me here! You my dude got everything right (especially the Sons of Pitches, that was pure cringe) and my love for Patapon is my reason as to why I am pissed at the Remastered Versions (looking at you, you buggy mess and low resolution cutscenes). (Speaking of unconventional rhythm games, have you heard to No Straight Roads?)
After completing the first and second game 100% in 2017 I've tried to do 100% third game but failed, left it and came back in first half of 2020. Still playing to get that 100% and beyond.
If you want easy in Patapon 3, use todenga, he's pretty much the spin to win god. If you want super easy, level the normal hero to 15, pour time into bowmunk and cannassault, and them go back to todenga Bowmunk's skills will help with health/healing, and cannassault will help with stagger and knockback. So you turn spin to win god into spin to win shutdown god. If it doesn't 1-shot you, you're likely gonna still die soon.
