CGR Packaging Review - CAPTAIN SKYHAWK for NES box and cartridge

[Jdpteam]

I remember playing this game when I was 5 or 6 lol! I wore that thing out! Sweet childhood memories..........

[nviso209]

Rare + MB (1989) / NES = Pilot w/ no eyeballs and PLANES in SPACE w/ dune buggies and pyramids! Man ya gotta love the last legs of the NES...

Captain Skyhawk was so cool, he tried flying around without his cockpit glass. Of course, he got his eyeballs ripped straight out of his head, but he has such mad skills, he keeps on delivering the firepower!

[natal1711]

No, the notes section was usually useless. The paper texture is so glossy it's hard to write on, and the manual itself so small it was a pain. Always hated it.

[Thumper17]

"IS THE EARTH DOOMED!?!"

"Well, yeah, but for a variety of other reasons."

O.o That was dark..

[nintendoneil]

I thought this game was a very good yet underated game on the nes....very fun shooter with a unique docking sequence at the end of the levels...one of my favourite shooters for the nes...

[NeoSpriggan]

I miss colorful manuals, nowadays we get thin useless things.

[0MetallicaManX0]

@FlowCell I did once to write down a pass code for Mega Man 5...then I discovered regular paper worked better lol.

[10Dan01]

[Guthans702]

[TFKuploader]

@1337BleachFan whoa it does, i didnt notice that lol

[walkerredeye]

you do know that tartar sauce is made by dentists, from that stuff they scrape off of teeth right?

[JIM4741return]

make somethin good or ill unsub. my subscriber box is filled with shit like this.

[IPAndrews]

I once returned a game because I couldn't make notes.

[bender01110111]

tie fighter

[FlowCell]

Did anybody ever use the "notes" section of their instruction manuals?

[pirosoffaireyes]

@FlowCell lulz! No... it ruins the whole package! XD

[PhillyBlunt6988]

@FlowCell I did on some Genesis games for writing codes down:)

[LLawliet435]

@FlowCell only if i found a glitch

[bigtarget9]

@FlowCell in a zelda game... once

[hasegawamiki]

@FlowCell I've never dared to do such a thing!!!

[achillesian]

@FlowCell drew a penis in one

[SuperNESFreak]

@FlowCell I think my sister did when she was playing Myst.

[KleinerKokiri]

*randomly grabbing a game from my shelf*

This is Banjo-Kazooie. Theres a bear on it. The cardridge is grey.

And the motive looks very dynamic with the bear grabbing all that stuff - like a puzzle thingy and that purple thingy.

Oh ... did i mention, the handbook has the same artwork on it ? It's also full-color.

[seanobi777]

Looks like the guy on the cover art is taking a crap. :D

[RowanSL]

[Haxx1234]

"Soar where no man has gone before! However, there have been a lot of women there" LOL

[death5431]

anyone else notice the tie fighter in the back ground?

[spacexploder]

nintendo and gameboy had the best game covers ever.

[NiNjaAssassin99]

Hey Mark,Please Answer This Please...

Did you ever had a wife?Beacause in mostly all your videos You never Talk about you wife.Is it a buisness thing.Or is it because your reviewing so much games you cant spend time with you wife?Please Answer back.

Ninja

[retread01]

@NiNjaAssassin99

Why would he mention his wife in a video game review?

[vincentizghra]

@NiNjaAssassin99 He says in one video(won't tell which one cause I don't remember). that :"My wife doesn't like video games."

[patrkcirtap]

@vincentizghra in the Peggle Nights review for pc, i believe

[vincentizghra]

@patrkcirtap Nice memory right there, thanks!

[patrkcirtap]

@vincentizghra lol, no problem

[ratmanaustin1234]

@NiNjaAssassin99

he does have a wife and has mentioned her before.(please refrince to colecovision versus atari versus nes video) in the ferminator review you can see her shoes plus he has a ring on

[NiNjaAssassin99]

@ratmanaustin1234 lol Idk anymore

[WancakesTheBrave90]

anybody else think of titanic when they watched the jet sink???

[AbePacko12]

Splash.

[Herbarius]

the silver thing makes it look more like Atari 2600 packaging I think

[JonathanDP81]

I've much rather have the hard plastic case of a Master System/Genesis game than the cheap box Nintendo used.

[SoFrosts]

Oh Mark i love your sense of humor. <3

[psychoclown420]

Who really reads those instruction manuals that came with nintendo games? unless it's xmas morning and you can't play the game yet and want to pretend you are playing it or something... Either way, 5 more videos and you will be 1337!!!!

[Snotnarok]

@psychoclown420 Shoot, he'll have to start a new channel if he wants to stay leet :U

[GamerBoy53]

@psychoclown420 lol Yeah, the 1337 thing was just going through my head.

[SLRMC93]

(sigh) I wish I had kept the boxes to my NES and SNES games from when I was a kid I still have some of the boxes but I kept all the instruction manuals!

[nopepsicoke]

love your videos very relaxing

[PinoyZo1]

your almost near your 1,337 videos made!!

[gpolhemus]

Yes! After you did that great review of captain skyhawk I was so hoping you would do a packaging review for it - ha! For whatever reason that creepy looking guy on the front, as weird as he looked, just made you want to play the game. It made you want to be captain skyhawk. "Splash"

[GamingPalooza]

I was about to say... ya... that does look like an Atari style box art, has that old school look to it.

[xwillnotbetelevisedx]

Mark, you're made of gold!

[Wuzaka]

For people who whine about the box and cartridge reviews: Just don't watch them. Is it really that hard to skip these ones if you don't like them? I myself hate them but I don't come to these vids to rant about how these reviews suck and how I'm gonna stop watching his videos.

[imamexdragon]

I agree with riseandfall420 WTF is this reviewing a box come on!!

[Dragonfury3000]

splash xD

[riseandfall420]

its just a case for a game! i'm bout to stop watching classic game room because hes not even reviewing actual games anymore, he reviews anything he can

[Lineriderrocks123]

@riseandfall420 Yeah, go watch Barney little kid. If you were born in the 80s like most of us who watch CGR, these cartridge reviews bring up a lot of memories. If you don't like em' wait until tomorrow where he'll probably review some retro game.

[MetallicMushroom]

Space docking in an NES manual :O

[trombonekingdom]

Hey! I have that game :D except I couldn't play it because my NES broke :(

[donminino777]

Mark freakin rules!!!

[HUYI1]

mark, you always make me laugh :)

[Manofaction0]

Just throwin this out there as a casual suggestion, but you should review star wars republic commando for the Xbox and PC. I just torrented it out of giggles and kicks and I say with all sincerety that is the most underrated game in existance.

[LeightonW87]

@Manofaction0 I don't remember it being under rated. Everyone I know that played it only had good things to say about it.

[Tagemandbagem]

"Captain, we need your best Clint Wastwood, STAT!"

[BRAKESUK80]

i have just had a look at my boxed copy of thi game.i live in the uk and it is near enough the same except we dont have the silly grey border around the edge of the box and cartridge

[bobopatchigglerrulez]

a disco ball crossed with a tie fighter WIN

[TheW0rldsGame]

mark is like review god. He Can Talk about any thing for about 8 mins.

[leoviper]

Mark is the best cartridge reviewer ever.

[42Unknowns]

Ahhhh I remember watching my dad play this game, good times.

[Jason026P]

it looks like he's taking a dump

[CheapBeer09]

its funny how these games (could) cost so much money back in the day, came on cutting edge ROM chips cased in massive cartridges, packaged in artistically elaborate casings with even more elaborate 20/30-page instruction manuals!! ... but you can just download these games now in seconds ... for free!! and they're about 200kb in size!!

[Flodder450]

@CheapBeer09

and the cartridge medium is outdated nowadays

times sure have changed

[xxdarklink93xx]

@Flodder450 Nintendo will never le 'em die. 3DS: 2 GB cartridges!!! Next handheld: 1 TB cartridges, I want them!

[gruntsee]

splash...XD

[RDV333]

Do more packaging and console reviews!

[KyleReidzilla]

Aww now i'm hungry... Time for a sandvich!

[SaitoFortexX]

SPLASH! :P

[Harrispie]

this guy sounds like seth rogen

[1shoryuken]

@clockdud556: it's called CLASSIC game room for a reason you retard!!!

[CamramanNinja]

[1shoryuken]

people that are complaining about these packaging reviews don't understand that back in the 8 - 16 bit era of gaming culture that most gamers then would throw away the packaging so they can have more room to stack their games only using the cartridges but now they are valuable collector items.

Plus l love these packaging reviews because it just shows that there was a lot of imagination going into the artwork and today's modern games don't have that anymore on the cover art.

[nani1962]

I love Marks vids

[boratslaya]

marks funniest video, man i loved it

[kuunami]

Fried Alien with cocktail sause. MMMNNN.

[YouAreBewitched]

why....just....why

[Ze0do0Gas]

Captain Skyhawk seems Robocop's Peter Weller

[Koolkitties]

New song? WHAAAAAT?

[osgq88ecarcd]

Il end on that ... splash.

[kad3t]

Great video, as usual!

Many people complain that you started reviewing packagings for games and not games only but they know nothing about being a true gamer. It's not only a game that counts it's everything around it as well - which tends not to be the case with new, often only available through download titles. Anyway, keep 'em coming and thanks for awesome video review (again)!

[TooSlowGamer]

@haropro2 To writes down high scores etc. for games that don' save. If they do save, you could right down things, like in Zelda there's tons of stuff that you need to remember.

[masteriansun]

has anyone ever actually used the notes sections ?

[RocketOrganization]

Do the Zelda Gold Cartridge

[futoncat]

I will name my child Skyhawk. And they will be a captain.

[dittm3r]

No matter what I achieve in my life, I can never be Mark. That makes me sad.

[pcostel1]

That was published by MILTON BRADLEY!!?!!

[iamextremelyawesome]

@TheCuster58

i drew in them once in awhile with a pencil without my older brother knowing. i figured if he ever caught me i could defend myself with the ol, "it will erase!!!" (as he's chasing me around the room.)

[VoidKeeper]

captain skyhawk is squinting his eyes. Cause squinting your eyes is cool.

[TheCuster58]

Does anyone ever even use the space provided for notes in the back of Nintendo's game manuals. I know I never have.

[thetf97]

I cannot see his eyeballs even now.

[hash2196]

CGR never fails to deliver awesome reviews!

[wingedmario64]

SkyHawk PAUUNCH!!

[ApplausableGuy]

i love to eat fried aliens.... ate 5 alien stripes this morning! Its a great way to start the day

[MrExtremepaintballr]

WHAT HAPPENED TO DEREK!?

[DJGalax44]

@MrExtremepaintballr A tip: CGRUndertow

[anoob100]

@MrExtremepaintballr Derek is with cgrundertow.

[eurohim]

Captain Skyhawk looks like Clint Eastwood.

[JBHutto]

@eurohim stay out of my sky punks.

[TankT9]

Art is awesome - specially where plane fly in the stratosphere like a space ship, but it's a plane LOL.

[Citrus3000]

Captain Skyhawk is like an early Master Chief :D

[OrangeJuiceSyndrome]

@NiNjaAssassin99 if you want an answer look up the cgr review of the beatles rock band

[Gyzyn]

@OrangeJuiceSyndrome I weatched that review earlier, but I didn't catch that part about his wife.

[monkeyrahha]

[hualni]

[nextrexd]
