I saw a really cheap toy gun recently and one of the main features of it was 'ultraviolet radiation', my first thought was either thats a missprint or i need to get the fuck out of hear, my second was, im sur ashens would appreciate this.
Now I want to see a Gamejam where the contestants get to pick an instruction for a Popstation game and have to make the best game they can based on that.
Poki#3 That's an awesome idea lol I would love to see what people would come up with. These were so impressively incomprehensible. Though, 'Chanticleer Hegemony' has to be the greatest title for anything ever.
That's essentially what Ludum Dare is! There was actually a project on TIGsource where a bunch of small indie devs (including the guy who made Super Crate Box, smash hit of a game that is) each took a game from Action 52 and built a game from it. The SCB guy (Vlambeer I want to say?) took Non Human and made it amazing. It was essentially his take on the weird looking protagonist in that game, and turned it into a weird robot/mech with a face, and the object was to get to the end of the stage, using your small cannon type gun and various subweapons to destroy the monsters. There was another great entry based on Sombrero that was like a top down shooter sorta like Smash TV that allowed you to use bullet time based on the number of sombreros taken from dead enemies you have. The other main one was a flash game based on Streemerz that was taken from the circus theme and looked a lot more bionic commando with fantastic grappling mechanics. It's all great stuff!
+the bonesauce Eh, no really. Ludum Dare gives everyone a singular theme, not a few obscure and badly translated sets of instructions. That Action 52 gamejam thingy sounds awesome though.
Radioactive Gamer *YOU!!!* Unfortunately, you cannot play any pop stations because "Forbid to play under the conditions of high pressure power and strong radiation". What a shame!
I liked Chanticleer Hegemony better when I had no idea what it was. I really don't know why I was expecting anything but a clone of a preexisting game.
Sm0ker I think Chanticleer Hegemony needs a gritty reboot. "Hank Cyclone used to be the top of the pecking order. Now he's been betrayed by his former best bud Eddie Original, who's kidnapped Hank's girlhen Patricia and declared himself top cock. Exiled to the outskirts of the farm, it's now up to Hank to punch, kick and peck his way back up the ranks and stop Eddie Original before it's too late!" The game would be a mostly open-world action/brawler with a combat system similar to Bayonetta, except in this case, instead of Bayonetta's pistols, holding the triggers down at any time would allow you to unleash a continuous rapid-fire melee peck attack, which can be used to link and transition in and out of combos. The game would also incorporate a similar mechanic to the Nemesis system from Shadow of Mordor, providing each player with a unique and diverse rogue's gallery of barnyard rivals.

A POP Station Watch has been issued for your area. Residents are advised to take immediate protective action to avoid the chanticleers invading the sovereign states of the world. In addition, residents are advised to shelter in place until the authorities have neutralized the threat of chanticleers exerting hegemony upon human life and property. Avoid using the telephones unless you have been exposed to the tat and require immediate medical assistance. If you cannot avoid the tat, do not handle it under conditions of high pressure power and strong radiation. This POP Station Watch may be replaced by a POP Station Warning if the situation escalates and the chanticleers exert their hegemony upon human homelands. Stay tuned to this station for further updates on this dangerous situation.
Is that like an Amber Alert? Am I gonna get raped by a chicken? I am bored, so maybe I'll leave my door unlocked, and I'll pay on my couch naked, covered in chicken feed.
So many amazing names for prog rock songs in this video. "Chicken Supremacy" "Hank Cyclone" "Small Man Loxate" "Speediness Carom" All these songs by the very popular* band Aerolite! Which is like a poor man's version of Aerosmith or something oh I don't know I'm going to stop trying to make sense of this crap.
Just read an article about how "World War 3 has already started" and saw the word "hegemony". Couldn't resist popping back for a look at this classic from the channel that started my RU-vid obsession. Ashens is an absolute OG.
It wouldn't work. These are LCD toys. To make a home console they would need to actually make video games. They could always do a Famiclone but a Plug n Play is more likely
And by the way, I had a Soramimi with that song. I thought it said "Fammi Scendere" (pronounced FAHM-mee SHEN-deh-reh, Italian for "Help me to get down").
Super Mary reminds me a lot of Super Mario Bros Game & Watch! Amazing, Pop-Station has finally reached the tech level of 80s Game & Watch! And there was much Un-Joicing!
Much enjoy did Ashens, I amused very. hope continue watching I happy more. of favorite Hank Cyclone is one, love in also Eddy Original much fun. I full of bye go now do I go happy again soon.
Pop station is what made me find you, back in the day when psps just came out I heard about you through a forum I frequented. Loved your videos immediately and ever since those days so long ago I have watched you. Pop stations will never get old, I will always love and hate them.
NecroBanana What do you mean in 2010? I have been playing the game since mid 90s... and I know my parents used to play the game when they were kids (70s or so) so... I doubt a game that is at least 40 / 50 years old (and it could easily be centuries old) is going to ever stop being relevant... That is like saying that just because you don't play Hide & Seek anymore, the game is not relevant. Cultural things never stop being relevant. They stop being popular for certain people, which is a very different thing.
Someone will probably create a official Chanticleer Hegemony game for shits and giggles and make a kickstarter campaign for it. It will meet it's goal and be realeased on all the platforms. The pirates in Asia can't file a cease and desist. How can they? However, in turn, they will create a pirated version Chanticleer Hegemony, making a knock off to their own knock off game... This is what we call Chanstiception.
"Definition of GALLINACEOUS : of or relating to an order (Galliformes) of heavy-bodied largely terrestrial birds including the pheasants, turkeys, grouse, and the common domestic chicken" Apparently
I had it at age 5. I bought it from a stall somewhere in Southern Italy. I only remember playing Street Overlord, Chanticleer Hegemony and Super Mary, which I liked (a 5-year-old child likes everything).
Hank Cyclone and Eddie Original are the mortal enemies of Chief Excellence as he attempts to turn them into chicken soap. :D But Hank Cyclone has his secret weapon; the Hank Laser which he plans to turn Chief Excellence into a burning corpse.
Tbh, this is the first POP Station video, where I feel like the maker actually did some effort to make the POP Station (not a lot, but more than the others). There are actually a couple of pretty substantial differences in the games, as far as that's possible with games as simple as these. Also, maybe I've just watched too much of these videos, but I understood most of the instructions of Super Mary/Merio. :P
Everytime i see Ashens posts about popstations it just reminds me how much time has passed by, graduating from school and college with many life events. And how much hair has grown down there too. Thanks Stuart.
I don't know if I should be worried or impressed - the music for Chanticleer Hegemony is the 24th movement in Paganini's 24 Caprices, Op. 1 ... are POP Stations actually cultured, or something? Definitely not the first POP Station to use it too ...
I saw a grandpa a couple of years ago in the hospital cafetaria, i had an operation on my leg and i had a visiter, and this grandpa played 3 hours non stop on his pop station, i do not know what "game" he was playing, but he wouldn't stop playing! Amazing how somebody can play this thing for hours on end!
Somewhere in mainland China, some poor underpaid factory worker has been making these things six days a week for the past 30 years at the Popstation plant.
Distorted Ward And the whole time, he'll be complaining about how much the 3DS or Vita costs and how many Pop Stations he could've bought for that price. He'll hate the price so much that he'll play whatever games he receives for just the few seconds that Ashens plays Pop Station games for before feeling too revolted to go further. The comments for the video will consist of people wondering who, in their right mind, would spend that many thousands of yuan (however much they cost in China, I don't know) on a video game system that then charges you even more if you want games for it.
Thank you for removing the god awful bloody siren sound from the Pop Station Watch intro, those used to scare the crap of me (especially watching them at 3 AM)
Have you guys noticed the list of games are similar to the ones on the PCP Station "The original White one not the later one that's Black" except for Nonsuch Racing, the PCP station had "Nonsuch Fly racing"
I would pay SO MUCH money to see you review live, on stage, big screen with live feed and bring the sofa as well! AN OBSCENE AMOUNT OF MONEY would change hands...
UrineTr0ub1e I hate to say it, but those people both in the Western world, and in China who are unaware of the differences between something like this, and a genuine PSP or DS. All you need to do, is make the box look authentic, which they've been successful at multiple times.
Dear Ashens, my GF and i love watching your videos. they make our day and help us relax. keep bringing great entertainment to the world. Respect from Ryan and Catrina.
I have always wondered about these popstation lcd games. It might not look like it today, with our supercomputers with photorealistic graphics, but in the 80's there actually were lcd games of that type that were actually quite good and well made. Sure, the technology limited what kind of game you could implement quite a lot, but many manufacturers nevertheless worked around those limitations to produce surprisingly well-made and addictive games. In other words, my point is that these popstation games being utter crap is not really a limitation of the technology, but of work and talent. It _is_ possible to make relatively good games using this technology. These popstation games, however, are absolutely horrendous even considering the technology.
In the soviet block there was a lcd game - for the love of God I can't remember how it was called since everybody jist called it 'ruskie jajka' (Russian eggs). You controlled a wolf from a popular Russian cartoon who was in a henhouse trying to catch falling egs onto a basket. It was addicting as fuck.
@@Pijawek Ok, seems like the website with the recreations is gone, or I can't find it. You should've just searched for Nu Pogodi LCD game (it didn't have a name). It was released in 1984. It seems like it was a clone of Nintendo's "Egg" for Game & Watch from 1981. There's an Android app that is inspired by the Nu Pogodi version. The app is called "Wolf & Chicken Coop".
ashens you know when you post this stuff long time viewers like me or any fan just twinkle up inside and prepare to laugh our asses off at you talking about cheap tat. hats off to you!
Back when I used to live in Arizona, there was a supermarket that had an in-store sushi bar. They made a pretty wicked Dragon Roll, which was basically a whole line of sushi in a green dragon wrapping. I never actually bought one, but it looked pretty damn good.
seriously whats with the chinglish instructions! its 2015 surely the makers of this crap can find SOMEONE who speaks english, and have them scribble up some instructions in 10 minutes.
AwesomeVindicator Guess no english! Instruction download been printed old? Game 3 secondary bovine subjugation?! Company favorite whereas main win defeat instrumental; lost all request follow clothing, and creature? Jam like yes!
***** Actually the educational system in China ironically renders the opposite scenario. Many have a decent sense of grammar and written English but have committed little time to oral English. I'm not sure why this kind of thing is so commonplace.
Yay! It's been a while since you've reviewed some obscure/obsolete electronic crap. For the same price as one of these shit things you could probably pick up an old Game Boy and a couple of games from Ebay.
I think the worst part of Super Mary is that they tried to recreate the underground theme from Super Mario Bros., but they had no idea what they were doing and when they got to the parts they didn't know, they just flailed on the keyboard and said "I think that's good enough."
MrAtomicBrownie Heh, if they actually used a keyboard. Those sounds are created by what's known as PWM, aka different frequency tunes. They had to pick random values for each tune, and this is the result.
