This is a selection of some of my personal favorite PS1 Japan imports from my collection. I tried to pick games that can be easily played without the need to know Japanese. All games are accompanied by gameplay, box art and the most commonly translated name for the game (if applicable).
I still have TONS of PS1 imports I can feature in future videos such as this one, but that will depend on the reception to this video, so if you want more be sure to watch the full video, like/comment and I will continue to make PS1 import videos.
Games featured in this video (in order of appearance):
1. Gear Fighter Dendoh
2. Odo Odo Oddity
3. Lucifer Ring
4. OH NO!
5. EGG
6. Kaze No Notam
7. Granu-Shimai Daibouken
8. Ten Made Jack

I haven't properly edited gameplay like this into my videos in many many years... it's been so long since I felt that feeling of being satisfied with all the hours put into the finished video. Could this be the start to rekindling a flame in my desire to edit videos? We'll see if it's worth it. I hope the gameplay helps in your purchasing decisions!

@ChrisMeadows1992 Год назад

Love you, brother

@Vulpas Год назад

Great job. Can you do some in-depth reviews?

@milklordnomadic Год назад

OG viewer since i was like 13 back in the day here and man I'm really glad to see you back again!

@jeffreycharest9093 Год назад

I love the added game footage. Super appreciate that. Definitely could watch tons of these recent videos. Learning a lot. Thanks so much Pete.

@Shatterglass23 Год назад

Love Gear Fighter! 👍

7:04 this game reminds me of walking home from the bar

@NinjaxShadowXx Год назад

I just love the look of PS1 and early PS2 era games it felt so special and magical

@rustyshackleferd22 Год назад

Gameplay moves these videos into must watch

@MrBacchus18 Год назад

These old ps1 games just have a unique feel love it

@KennethPeterNielsen Год назад

I love these old school style videos - keep them coming 👍🏻👍🏻

@michaeltan_ Год назад

great video once again. I want a copy of Kaze no notam. these more relaxing games are a nice addition for sure.

@SteamPunk96 Год назад

This series should be named "A small selection from my Collection"

@joeyasaperson Год назад

thanks for the gameplay footage, these look amazing!

@joeyasaperson Год назад

really considering looking into ps1 japan imports now

@Dusty_B Год назад

Many of these videos? Hell yes! Can’t wait for more!

@thatdutchguy89 Год назад

I love the vibe of these games you picked, really cool games.

@samysnes Год назад

The cover art for Kaze No Notam is a beautiful piece by artist Hiroshi Nagai. I LOVE his art style! I'm not sure this piece was made just for the game but it's very similar to the one he made for Max Romeo's "Loving You" in 1983 or Naoya Matsuoka's "September Wind" also in 1983. Another 80s Japanese illustrator with a similar, but more detailed art style is Eizin Suzuki. They're the two big names when it comes to 80s LP cover art in the city pop / jazz fusion music genre. Eizin Suzuki is well known these days for the cover art he did for Tatsuro Yamashita's "For You" in 1982.

@OtterSkull Год назад

Always a nice surpirse to see an upload from you Pete!!!

@FanaticalFootballFan Год назад

I appreciate these videos because just the US PS1 library is great. Adding the imports opens it up even more. :)

@erebus015 Год назад

Odo Odo Oddity looks amazing and I'm definitely going to check it out. I appreciated the game play clips for this one because I knew of none of these games. I would have been lost without footage. Keep up the ps1 content (or any content really) and I'll keep watching.

@eXtremeLink859 Год назад

Great vid Pete, it really helped to see the gameplay for this one. Ten Made Jack looks really interesting, and I'm glad to see you recommend Kaze No Notam! The OST to that game is still in my regular rotation of music

@janbiela8596 Год назад

Pete those videos are a goldmine! Im so happy you decided to make these :) Please make more!

@aaron-n Год назад

Awesome. It's so nice being able to see these obscure games' footage in the video.

@Polk Год назад

Very much appreciate the gameplay footage. Definitely enjoying these

@MetroAndroid Год назад

Really love the added gameplay, definitely helps seeing the visuals associated with the games, especially obscure ones with almost no video available online.

@Hikargh Год назад

Absolutely wonderful to see you making videos again! Talking to a camera is good on its own, but showing game play as well is the cherry on top! I look forward to seeing more recommendations of obscure games I've never heard of, just like the good old days. Also, regarding "Ten Made Jack", the title means something like "Jack all the way to the heavens" (subtitle: "The bewildering great death climb up the bean stalk"), and the "ma" and "de" are pronounced seperately. Signed, some dude who spent four years learning japanese and feels the need to flex.

@Reaperman4711 Год назад

Huge thanks for this. I'm currently on a PS1 'kick' thanks to the new(ish) MiSTer core, and am hugely interested in titles that I haven't played to death 20+ years ago.

@epix4300 Год назад

Thanks for getting me into retro gaming/collecting Pete

@soraskingdom2388 Год назад

Honestly I’m really happy to see you back and making videos at this level of output again. I’ve been following you on RU-vid for at least a decade. I’ve popped into a few streams but it’s really not my preferred entertainment medium. So seeing you make videos again has been awesome. Keep it up.

@dounutknut Год назад

Learned a ton in this video! Would love to see more imports across PS1 and other consoles. Thanks so much!

@wowbam8966 Год назад

I've been watching your video since I was around 15 years old; I'm 25 now and super happy to see you still kind of making videos. Cheers!

@harrymcrorie Год назад

So happy your back regularly pete .been a fan for a few years and always watch your older videos but these new ones are just as good if not better .keep being you pete .never lose sight of that 💙🙂

@JohnnyDeppFan1433 Год назад

These kinds of videos are why I’ve been following you since 2008/09. Great content, Pete. I’ll be tracking some of these down for sure.

@chrilz1498 Год назад

You've spoiled us with three of these great videos in one week, Pete! And your picks are excellent--I'm so glad Kaze no Notam got some love! I've yet to pick up a copy but I've put on the soundtrack many times over the past couple of years. I hope you're having a great day!

@richardhull7972 Год назад

I really enjoyed that! I love how your video are more old school no gimmicks just goox talk and informative

@jg6794 Год назад

This is awesome! Thank you for doing this series.

@ash44433 Год назад

I have been collecting more ps1 Japanese games lately, so thank you for this video! I’m looking forward to more of this. Bring on the Japanese ps2 stuff!😁

@mikkelelgaard6630 Год назад

Thanks for putting in the hard work with the edit. This was a joy to watch

@biostem Год назад

Really enjoy this content man. I love learning about lesser known imports. I have pretty solid Famicom, MD, Sufami, and Saturn import libraries, but import PS1 is pretty unexplored, so this is really educational. Definitely going to pick up Gear Fighter Dendoh asap.

@hammahead101 Год назад

Thank you for the new video Pete!

@gunndlewittlebaum8932 Год назад

Thank you so much for making these videos.

@pokechi121 Год назад

Having the gameplay is a really nice touch. Looking forward to more.

@meh252 Год назад

This is why I watch you here and Twitch. Awesome video!

@Juantífico Год назад

I was just hoping that you added some gameplay to these videos. Thanks for taking the time to do it!

@tobiasrenner2797 Год назад

I think you added the gameplay clips in very well. Helps a lot for deciding to check the games out later. I love your channel and streams for these deep dives into videogame obscurities. So keep it up 👍

@ryouhonoo5 Год назад

Great selection Pete, was fun watching you stream them, even if the Jack and the beanstalk game was frustrating!

@RaisinBran0291 Год назад

Thank you for the content Pete I really enjoy these types of videos. I’ve been recently exploring Japan PS1 imports and one of my favorites is Groove Jigoku V, a Warioware type mini game compilation that’s essentially the predecessor to Work Time Fun for PSP. There’s a lot of games you covered that I haven’t discovered yet!

@tornekotaloon9732 Год назад

Finally! Someone talks about Odo Odo Oddity! Such a weird and interesting game with awesome music, stages and art that NOBODY talks about! I found my copy by chance and I love it despite the difficulty. Also Ten Made Jack is awesome as well!

@FifthOfNovember_Original 4 месяца назад

2024 and I still keep finding new brilliant games to my PS1 collection! And I’ve been playing PS1 since 1996!

@megamob5834 Год назад

Thanks for doing these man! Love it ❤️ And really appreciate that you added gameplay footage

@Paradox_006 Год назад

Love this video! Keep it up Pete!!

@JPbruv Год назад

I really enjoy these new videos!

@undamned Год назад

Nice! Thank you for making this! I've not heard of any of those titles! Keep them coming!

@pickflip4429 Год назад

@TheManOnTheHill Год назад

Wow adding gameplay really enhance the quality of the content!! Keep em comin' Pete!

@thesoulforge3607 Год назад

Thanks for showing gameplay. It's the 1 and only thing that I was gonna comment about

@mojeimienazwisko3198 Год назад

amazing selection! actually very nice to see your gameplay bits. i will give at least 4 of these games a chance soon:)

@patrouski Год назад

TYSM FOR SUCH AN INCREDIBLE VIDEO PETE, ILL KEEP WATCHING ANY VIDEO YOU UPLOAD

@warnerg80 Год назад

Great video Pete. I think a PS2 Japanese import video would be good since it’s backwards compatible with the ps1 games you’re covering 🤙

@NESFriend Год назад

Thanks for taking the time to do this Pete. Great video!

@pliskin1231 Год назад

Great video Pete! Definitely going to be on the look out for a few of these over the next few weeks. Especially Odo Odo oddity and kaze no notam. Ten made jack though....I can't handle that music! 😂

@cr239 Год назад

Keep ‘em coming 👍🏻

@stepmack35 Год назад

Nice video. These Japanese PS1 games all look/play uniquely in their own way. Japan got some really experimental games. Also nice job on the editing.

@mpm4456 Год назад

Awesome video!

@Xenafan85 Год назад

Love all the gameplay all new games for me so great to see how they play!

@DominiqueDeMann Год назад

I'd like to thank you for making this cool informative video!

@NaveedMohebbi Год назад

I just recently picked up Kaze No Notam and I can't wait to try it when it arrives. I've also had Ten Made Jack on my wishlist for a while so I'll have to grab it at some point. Lots of great recommendations here. There are such a small amount of videos on import PS1/PS2 stuff on RU-vid so love seeing this.

@guedesgamer2271 Год назад

Its crazy how some amazing games only came out in Japan. My top 3 Japan exclusive games for the ps1 are: Kitchen Panic, Nekketsu Oyako and Fist of the North Star.

@PopeTheRevXXVIII Год назад

Nekketsu oyako also hit Saturn. I used to have it.

@bradejensen 4 месяца назад

i would say this video is a rare gem. thank you for the great selection of games that honestly i don't often see reviewed, if ever, on other videos. that odo games has that same over the top artistic vibe of that sega saturn 2d platformer title, astal.

@SuryaBudimansyah Год назад

Dendoh is my childhood! It is really fun even tho you can't play 2 players I recently tried Lucifer Ring and Kaze no Notam, Lucifer Ring is simple but great gameplay, and Notam is really relaxing but hard to master And others look cool too! Thanks for the recommendation! Looking forward for more PS1 games contents!!

@WearyTerry1220 Год назад

Great video! Thank you for sharing

@rich_in_paradise Год назад

I like seeing retro games that I've never seen before, so thanks for these videos. I think the days when I aspired to collect games like this myself are well over now though - the prices are just too crazy now.

@TheWeazle5000 Год назад

I appreciate the effort and work it took to put gameplay in

@DakovP Год назад

Thanks for the video, would love to see more as its cool to collect jpn imports to me. Sadly so many of them are expensive nowadays like you said haha.

@grokopf142 Год назад

eggscellent choices pete! 😎

@Reginmund Год назад

Honestly I'd love to see a video on Japanese only RPGs regardless of how much text they might have. Also good call on putting some game footage into this video. The weirder a game is the harder it is to get a clear idea of what it is based on a description alone.

@blake6615 Год назад

Pete you are spoiling us with all these videos

@WearyTerry1220 Год назад

Your videos are great! Thank you for you 🤜

@sonicsega1699 11 месяцев назад

pete is the best collector channel on youtube. been watching him over 7yrs now. unlike everyone else. his content is from the heart. not just "hey im a youtuber that gets everything sent to me"

@airthrowDBT Год назад

This will help me load up my MISTer with some titles I never heard of, thanks!

@danholo Год назад

Very nice. Dendoh is a fun game, played it one or twice.

@bpet122 Год назад

The 'nicher' the better man, keep it up! Loving this new series, lots of great info in these vids really appreciate your knowledge and sharing it!

@vaughngeorgesmixtapes8276 Год назад

I will def check them out. A Xbox 360 Hidden Gems Video would be nice

@gregames4843 Год назад

This is great! Hopefully you continue this into a series, maybe with PS2 as well. Really appreciate the great video and the inclusion of gameplay footage.

@aaronpischke5019 Год назад

Pete, I LOVE these kinds of videos!! Do a Japanese PS2 one!!! 💜💜💜

@jamesr6652 Год назад

The PS1/Saturn/N64 generation has always been my favourite. Thank you so much for making these videos.

@leeokami1021 Год назад

Honestly I seen some of your vids and I always appreciate hidden gems and obscure stuff to add to my collection. But having to open another window to see the gameplay was annoying. I'm glad you included gameplay and More so import friendly games. I've pretty much rounded out my collection so now I'm looking more into the Japanese market. Keep these vids coming. Subbed

@macdroidx8 Год назад

Wow seems like Pete is back again! :D Absolute legend of RU-vid and video game related vlogging. Glad to see you brother, thanks to you I started collecting video games for real :)

@SulphurBorne Год назад

Same

@MimosaSector Год назад

Great games. Great video. Thanks.

@bigstretcha994 Год назад

Great channel , subbed

@ChrisMeadows1992 Год назад

OH NO! aka Back to the Future for NES if it were playable

@novelezra Год назад

Thanks Pete for the first game recommendation! I adore single lane beat 'em ups (Ninja Warriors and the like) as I find a lot of the popular ones frustrating because you have to get your 'alignment' just right; which I find takes away from the pure fun you can have with just pulling off combos. The one you recommended looks like if Treasure made a single lane mech fighter instead of Guardian Heros. it looks beautiful. I will be sure to check it out.

@David_Winney Год назад

Great stuff.

@TheKayliedGamerChannel-YouTube Год назад

Ah, time for those old hidden gems, nice share man 🤠✌️

@ghostcat8244 Год назад

Wow I just happen to remember your name randomly today and wondering if you still make videos. Glade you do cause I haven’t watch your videos since I was in middle school w the ps2 collection/360.. now I am 28 and just remembering the nostalgia I had.

@Vulpas Год назад

Surprised to see an upload, I really miss this channel.

@humanice2 Год назад

I'm looking for Japan exclusive PS1 games as we speak, I really recommend the PSIO, I've been having a blast and currently have all the PAL exclusives but am missing out on some Japan exclusives, thanks for the recommendations Pete!

@Rawhaki Год назад

I finally found your channel again! Noice.

@chadmorton9259 Год назад

Pleaaaasse do more of these. I’ve never heard of any of these games and I thought i had pretty good knowledge of the ps1 library but I guess not lol

@ZW39 Год назад

Interesting games. Thanks!

@yiorgo187 Год назад

Would love to see a dozen of these vids. I have over 100 imports but none of these, think I missed the boat on these price wise however.

@chillestwhitest Месяц назад

RU-vid read my mind recommending me this video. I just received King’s Field 3 in the mail, my first import PS1 game, and I was thinking how I’d like to know some games I could play without knowing how to read Japanese. Very shortly after that thought, I hopped on RU-vid and this was the first video shown. Thank you for this, I’d love to see videos with more recommendations.
