  • Is it weird that I spent all night watching this stuff?

  • @kovulover No, not at all, trust me :-P

  • @TheErlend87 Cool.

  • the accent! it blows my fucking mind! i love it...my first exposure to moviebob was on the escapist, and without the awesome accent.

  • Yeah they made a spiritual sequel to Pocky and Rocky and the critics hated, there goes a perfectly good chance for a horribly overlooked series to make a comeback.

    Oh and to those complaining about Nintendo's games not "growing up". Well Bob has already made videos about while that is a good thing because with 360 and PS3 focusing solely on modern gamers there should at least be one company who still acknowledges the existence of retro gamers and gamers under the age of 17.

  • Nyeeehhh!!!!!

  • well they took chances making link ride a train (not sure if spirit tracks came out after this video was uploaded but yeah)

  • Or Canada. Nintendo was also huge in Canada.

  • @GraberStone

    And Europe.

  • Most people who are really good in reviewing or commenting about games in my opinion like for some reason Nintendo games. Is it ironic that because in my opinion Nintendo does make great quality consoles and games and only lake mostly in good 3rd Party games, grafics and memory. And I am honest there is no game out on the PS3 or Xbox360 what I am interested in even today. I used to love Dragonball Games and the last 1 I played was BT3 and none of the new once come close to its awesomeness.

  • @TheGreenThundar boston rage!!!!!!!

  • Dude, not a bostonian accent

  • Kinda funny watching these a year later....

    The Wii is mostly a paperweight now. The shovelware killed it.

    As one of the many gamers who enjoy the Overthinker, I kinda gotta disagree with his opinion of Nintendo, and his take on the rise of Shooter games.

    I think Nintendo's problem is that their gamers grew up, but their games didn't.

    When I played Doom for the first time, my life changed, and I never played another sidescrolling running/jumping game.

  • ...I think his voice is the work of the anti-thinker

  • what's with the accent?

  • Oooooooooo...Earthbound would be nice. Except on the DS...no thanks.

  • @astrangeone Really? I think the DS would be a nice fit, personally. The re-makes of Dragon Quest IV V and IV came out looking beautiful on it, plus they get the added benefit of being portable! And I'm sure you could use the extra screen for something useful, it is and RPG after all

  • So you tell Nintendo to release Earthbound on the DS, when it's more likely if they ever will that'll it'll be on the VC, but you don't demand Mother 3?!

  • why do u sound weird?

  • the accent!!1 its making my ears bleed!!!!

  • I dont get why all of a sudden his accent is starting to come out after 20 episodes. Was he just hiding it?

  • @unusuallynormal231 That, or he chooses to exaggerate it every so often. The first obviously being the more likely.

  • @unusuallynormal231 He wasnt really hiding it just look at the last 20 episodes they are in shit quality thats why you cant really tell he has his accent

  • Gangsta Bob

  • The ds can handle polygons. See dragon quest ix, super Mario 64 ds, the call of duty ports, final fantasy the 4 heroes of light and ii/iv, legend of Zelda phantom hourglass and spirit tracks...

  • I would pay good money for a 3-D platformer version of Yoshi's Island, especially after how well Yoshi controlled in Super Mario Galaxy 2

  • What was with the accent? Is this some kind of joke I wasn't in on?

  • @MobiusCoin He has a boston accent, he normally can hide it but that's how he normally talks

  • Hey, let's do something nutty after Super Mario Galaxy! How about... uhm... well... Super Mario Galaxy 2! It's like Galaxy 1, but twice as much reused levels!

  • I remember when the Nintendo Seal of Quality turned into just the Nintendo Seal.... 'Round when Gamecube came out? I am not insinuating anything, I'm just makin' an observation.

  • Good point about game journalism and trying to look unbiased. I myself have been called an Xbox fanboy a lot cause I love Xbox and hate ps3 and don't care for ps1- 2, I also happen to enjoy and respect my Wii and DS (sure they don't have as many games like as the Xbox but the hardware is solid). Like you with Nintendo I find MS does some things I don't like (the price of games on demand, peripherals). What I don't like is being called a fanboy for hating sony and their media player.

  • why do you sound like a new yorker?

  • Biggest accent ever!

  • It's like he WANTS nintendo to be acused of milking their titles "that are supported by nothing but nostalgia". Ik that's not what's going on but really?

  • @kingbooforums Because there are a bunch of other people to that at the escapist.

  • My girlfriend bought me "Love Doctor" Dr. Mario boxers.

  • @TheGreenThundar brabrabra brooklyn rage brabrabrooklyn rage

  • His accent really HAS changed. I wonder why?

  • Movie bob, please o! please, do an episode about earthbound! id bet starmen.net would endorce it.

  • Love my 360 but been a nintendo fan since the 80's and always will be

  • don sound like much complain to me =_=~

  • @nintendofanboy31 I hope it has occured to you at some time or another that you are a worthless waste of human flesh and bone (and fat) and should shut your mouth, because every time you open it you pollute the air.

    No, seriously, shut the fuck up. You're an idiot, your opinions would be worthless if you actually HAD any other than mindless abuse and you seem to think you're a better Nintendo fan than Bob based on... I guess the fact that you're the 31st guy to call himself "nintendofanboy".

  • Storage is definitely the weakness of the Wii. SD Card fix sort of addressed it but it still looks so ghetto.

  • Why are you all of a sudden from Boston?

  • @MisfitDoctor I think he's always been from Boston.

  • When the fuck did he decide to break out the accent in this one?

  • nintendo rules, but no one but me and 1 other person knows it in my school. if you ask everyone in my year what console they use for gaming, you will get Xbox Xbox Xbox

  • We Cheer actually looks fun. But I agree with other games.

  • WTT happened to his voice? WTF.. Scary

  • he has an accent.

  • Re: Wii shovelware; I don't get why this is a slam against Nintendo itself. a) Nintendo isn't actually making these games, and b) The existence of these games doesn't affect anybody in the slightest, unless you're actually buying them. You don't like it? Don't buy it! Who cares?

  • @kjcasey42 Well someone is obviously buying them. It's not Nintendo's fault that people actually like these games and are buying them. And that means more money for Nintendo. The #1 goal of any business is to make money. As much as we hate it when a company acts not to our liking, such as when 4Kids dubs anime in a way we disapprove of, we have to admit that that's what is making them money, and they're going to continue doing so. (Also, 4Kids anime is for a different demographic than us.)

  • I think you misunderstand me. My problem is not with Nintendo where shovelware is concerned. My problem is with the people who bitch about it. I pesonally am completely apathetic towards the "shovelware" games. Why? Because I'm never going to buy those games! Why then should I care? That was kind of the point I was trying to make. I apologize if I worded my post poorly.

  • @kjcasey42 I know. It's fine. I do wish there was a better ratio of shovelware to games I would like myself. I personally would like a port of Jet Grind Radio for the Wii.

  • Sorry Yu'g, doing this Brooklyn accent makes it difficult to concentrate on card games.

  • No offence, u sound like a gangster. :P

  • ...how is mario galaxy the exact same as mario 64?

  • I will absoulutely agree with you! HOW IN THE WORLD IS MARIO GALAXY MARIO 64!?!?!??!

  • Quite simple it's a 3D platformer with almost the same controls and some of the power ups.

    All the difference it in the gravity physics.

    Wing cap = Bee costume

    Also wing cap is cooler.

  • thats what i was telling them in a letter i sent them. they need to make a ssb on the ds make it like the legendary starfy style 3-d backgrounds and 2-d sprite i'd be a hit, also Bob if you like kirby game the legendary starfy fell like kirby on the ds.

  • what's with the sudden accent?

  • you sound like peter griffin xD

  • 4:52

    Earthbound (and the Mother series), according to Nintendo, has small riffs of songs, and they aren't re-releasing/localizing it because they don't wanna get sued. Only the diehard fans would notice the similarities, and the demand's high. Hell, they localized Fire Emblem after Super Smash Bros Melee, mainly because us Americans didn't know who Marth and Roy were. Why the cocktease of Mother 3 in Brawl if it's not going to be localized? At least there's a translation patch in ROM form.

  • 3:20

    Hey moviebob, you may have thought of this, or it may not be possible, but I just had a cool idea. Instead of creating a external memory like they did for the N64 and Gamecube, how about having a program that sets aside a few blocks of memory to record a history of the games you've purchased and downloaded. This way, you can delete the game from your memory, but if you ever want to get it back, the record of the transaction is still intact, so you don't have to pay to download it again.

  • @AnimeAdmirer22

    I know, that's what Xbox does, it's connected to your profile on there. When I bought my new 360 and recovered my old gamertag on it, it had a record of all the Xbox Live Arcade games I had downloaded, and I could go back and download them all again without rebuying them. There's no reason why Nintendo couldn't do this with Miis or something.

  • No offence, but this episode, you sounded from italy.

  • I'm not crazy about accent at all.

    No offense but accents like that are kinda annoying to listen too.

  • heh, and what do you call your way off talking?

  • Kinda plain and clear with steady momentum. Kinda that white person stereotype talk that black people do but with a lot more inflection for certain words and pronunciations.

  • your kind of dumb

  • I fancy there's nothing wrong with that.

  • I saw an ad fow We Cheer 2 ... that game actually warranted a damn sequel

  • "Do something original with Mario!"

    And they make Super Mario Galaxy 2...

  • Well like moviebob said, the people got a little pissy about Mario Sunshine and that's what brought out Mario Galaxy 1. So what makes you think that all of the bitching about a lack of hardcore titles didn't bring on a Mario Galaxy 2? And New Super Mario Bros. Wii for that matter?

    Maybe this is a sign that we shouldn't be telling Nintendo how to do their job? (Even though it's not like they're perfect)

  • I've always thought that, personally.

    The fact that we're going to have a console with TWO Zeldas, TWO 3D Mario games, a 2D one, a 2D Metroid and stellar 3D collection all combine to be insane. That would've been unheard of back in the day.

    I still think they should not take 3+ years for a non-HD game. The easier graphics drastically reduces development time, so personally, more than three years is a bit of "What were you guys doing?" They have teams for JUST Zelda... (all my opinion)

  • Hey man, We Cheer is actually a pretty good game.

  • Is it me, or did he have somewhat of an accent in this video?

  • i was wondering that it soundd new york yankee

  • when he gets angry his Boston accent creeps out.

  • When he get's serious or mad his Boston accent creeps out. That's the deal.

  • @ninjawraith17 but he wasn't serious or mad here.

    He was doing it because he was being labeled a fan boy and didn't want to seem like he thought Nintendo was infallible. So he was doing it more because he thought he should do it more than because he was serious or mad.

  • Oh good someone else noticed. For a second the I thought it was just me.

  • well actually i think that nintendo is going to shake things up with zelda because acording to teaser link will not have his master sword and he will have this weird guardian spirit of the sword thing

  • the EB Games pic at 2:52, is that in sydney cause i think iv'e been to that one...

    =D

  • The accent is distracting. I like the way you talked before this. Please speak clearly again. :)

  • You look like captain Lou Alvanno.

  • You know, when you talked about Nintendo having mountains of established characters and doing creative stuff with them, I thought about the Paper Mario series... You know what I mean, do you?

    How about talking about the Paper Mario series sometime.

  • Great episode. I loved Nintendo, I was born during Nintendo. Ever since the grey box, I was hooked. But now,all the crap games they've been making, I've gone to the Xbox 360. I've been there since was two years old, I was only Nintendo. Yes, good games such as Zelda and Mario still live. But... where are other things? I'm sorry Nintendo. Ever since you won't allow Fatal Frame 4 in America, you lost me. I can't believe in you anymore.

    (PS: Nintendo IS my main choice of portable games.)

  • I like your accent, it just sounds more personable and natural than the other voice you use. And it just sounds downright cool, hehe.

  • is it me or does he have more a a new york accent in this one

  • @finalredlaser he sounds pretty ney york-y on the new episode as well (Not on youtube unfortunatly

  • @finalredlaser boston accent actually

  • @finalredlaser Why yes, yes it is

  • @finalredlaser thats a boston accent

  • you sound different this time

  • when he's pissed his Boston-accent creeps out.

  • dude. why do u sound so new york this episode?

  • He's from Boston.

  • you seem to be coming down with a case of "brooklyn accent"

  • What's with the adam sessler voice?

    Shalom Game Overthinker.

  • wow mind reading stuff. and i got goose bumps when he was talking about n64 games.

  • 4:52 HELL YES

    You think like me

  • Sunshine was pretty good, whereas the Wind Waker was an instant classic. But a Zelda Mario crossover...well...if it actually worked it'd be like a Godsend.

    And EarthBound on the DS? Hell fucking yes. If you haven't played EarthBound, STOP TORTURING YOURSELF AND DO IT ALREADY!

    Also, smash on the DS is a great idea. And how's about Nintendo makes a Bowser game for once? Who else is sick of the plumbers & wants to fight against them [or at least as their arch-nemisis?]

  • You felt Super Mario Galaxy was too similiar to Super Mario 64? Really? Super Mario Sunshine was far more similiar to Super Mario 64 than Galaxy was. Galaxy's levels were more linear, and you couldn't dawdle to admire the view 90% of the time - unlike Super Mario 64 and Sunshine, where all the levels were free-roaming. Super Mario Galaxy was more like a SMB game in 3D - the stars were basically flagpoles. Sure, you'd get the occaisional "collect this" mission, but they weren't common in Galaxy.

  • why is his voice different like every video?

  • haha I keep waiting for him to say "what's up doc?" :p

  • Varying audio equipment.

  • u know what im waiting for? Super Smash Kart. think about it, using all the different characters to race, and instead of using randomized weapons that give an unfair advantage to whoever gets the best weapon first, known as "Mario Kart Syndrome", have each character have special abilities and weapons. i would love to race Samus against mario and link.

  • A mario/zelda crossover would quite possibly the best game of all time. Smash bros on ds with classic sprites would kick ass two. or maybe, highly detailed new 2d sprites. that would be better.

  • your tristate accent definitely shows in this episode

  • Make a Super Mario Sunshine 2 GOD DAMM IT

  • Hells YES!

  • and so how do you feel now that they've announced Super Mario Galaxy 2? :P

  • i know your not asking me

    but i wanted to answer anyways i think its fine super mario galaxy will become the equivalent to super mario bros 2 (the real one not doki doki panic) and if thats the case the game will be more difficult.

    HELL YES!

  • Your voice is diffrent 0_0

  • Thing about EB, all that cash would probably go towards getting the ability to avoid a law-suit caused by EB.

  • I thought that Wind Waker was just like other Zelda games.

  • it is, but people thinks it's different because of the cel shading graphical style

  • The idiotic western reaction to the Legend of Zelda: the Wind Waker, had one of the most negative impacts on Nintendo of anything ever. EVER.

  • hmmm Im wondering where the Brooklyn accent came from, in most of his videos he sounds very mid-western

  • I hate hearing all about the fan boy this or fan boy that. So what? have people forgotten the word preference now a days? or dear lord...the word...OPINION! O.O

    I'm a 360 owner and I love my Xbox. And would proudly set fire to it if someone offered me a N64 and a Supernintendo with a list of certain games.

  • 4:47 - You think that's bad, you should see the Pokemon games.

  • The problem you described at 3:30-4:30 has already begun, especially with Super Mario Galaxy 2.

    While it certainly won't be a bad game, I won't buy it because it looks like more of the same, and I didn't finish (nor do I want to) Mario Galaxy 1.

  • What is with the accent? lol.

  • Sounds slightly American Italian or jewish :p

  • think its a new yorker accent... kind of... brooklyn-ish...

  • Jews have their onw accent now, huh?

  • it' boston

  • When he's angry, his Boston accent flares up.

  • why does his voice sound different

  • At this point, my Wii is collecting dust.

    The only way that I think I will end up dusting it off is when:

    --Earthbound gets released.

    --The new Zelda gets released.

  • Zack and wiki de blob wario land and the shake dimension super paper mariobattalion wars 2 any of the trauma centre games Punch out okami little king's story no more heroes mario strikers chaarged football resident evil 4 house of the dead overkill Dust of your wii with that.
  • You know....a mario Zelda cross over where mario is the hero could be interesting I think.

  • You could have mentioned that too many games replace mindless button mashing with painful, mindless, and less efficient wrist shaking.

  • Yahtzee already did.

  • I was kicking myself after you mentioned using sprites in a Super Smash Bros DS game. So glorious and simple, and it had never even crossed my mind.

    Make it so, Nintendo!

  • Yay, I like knowing that MovieBob is on the side of the Earthbound fanboys like myself.

  • Yay!!!!!!!!! Lone Wolf and Cub Reference!!!!!

  • your massachusetts accent is so fucking strong!

    its good to have great ppl from my state.

  • I'm sorry but (I'm not going to say anything about TP and OOT because I don't know anything them) caliing Mario Galaxy a Mario 64 clone is wrong because Mario 64 IS OVERRATED SUCKAGE! WAIT! Don't flame me yet but I understand it was innovative for it's time and it was the first 3D platformer but I will not let NOSTALGIA hide horrible controls , a pain in the ass camera and crap bosses make for one smeg sandwich. Galaxy fixed these problems and you don't like it!?

    I hate Nostalgia fanboys.

  • "LOLOL MY OPINION>UR OPINION"

    Shut the hell up.

  • I'm just going to point this out: Most people don't like Super Mario 64 out of nostalgia. They like it because the controls are excellent, the camera very well done, and the bosses and characters to be very entertaining. I know this because I'm one of those people. I play through SM64 every now and then and I have no problems with the controls or camera. If you honestly think a game like Sm64 has bad controls... then I really don't know what to tell you, other than 'have you played Bubsy 3D?'

  • Even if mario 64 IS overrated (I haven't palyed it in years so I can't remember enough to judge) Galaxy is NOTHING like 64. It's longer, there's more level variety, and bowser is more badass.

  • whats wit da brooklyn accent?

  • its a boston accent

  • Comment removed

  • I dont consider you a nintendo fanboy because you never bash the company, I consider you a fanboy because you constantly bash Sony and Microsoft, specifically their games, even though you havent really played any. I seriously doubt youve completely played halo 3 or any halo games for that matter, yet you label it as the #1 over-rated franchise.

    It is considered "cool" to hate on something that is popular, and I definitely think you get caught in the hate.

  • you're argument is completely invalid since it's in horribly bad taste to say someone is hating on something just because it's cool. But I'll give you the grangier of attention.

    Halo; a good game, but does nothing new, different, or remotely stellar that games like Quake didn't already do. Yet somehow the franchise got so insufferably huge, and three games later there was still no innovation or anything worthwhile.

    Tell me, why does Halo not deserve criticism?

  • I dnt think Nintendo made Halo. So writing about Halo in a letter to Nintendo is kinda useless. SN - Halo implementation of regenerating health and its stellar multi-player component make it the juggernaut it is today.

  • Ok so what your saying is Halo gave us the gameplay capability to sit around with our thumbs up our ass while our health recharges? That's not new, plenty of games did that before, like Capcom's Monster Hunter.

    And stellar multiplayer? Quake had awesome multiplayer before it, and I'm afraid it doesn't take a lot of effort to create a game mode where people run around and shoot each other or capture a flag.

  • I did mean their where 1st to market I meant they did it better than anyone else at the time and more people enjoyed it. IMO Killzone 1 and Kill.Switch had better health systems. And from what I'm told more people pla halo than quake so quake must be doin something wrong if they get outsold by an unoringinal title?

  • How can you utilize health regeneration better than anyone else? That's a completely idiotic argument. As is arguing about maintaining your vitality in any form since if you have any sense you won't be getting your ass shot up.

    I forgot to mention that along with Quake there was Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Turok, and a few others with excellent multiplayer. And what's your point? More people played Crash Bandicoot than NiGHTS into Dreams, but that doesn't make it a better game now does it?

  • *Sigh* Jay-Z & Coldplay - Take The Hill

    1.28 to 1.38. Just listen and you will understand why I have given up.

  • Well their is a rumor that there is no master sword in the next Zelda game (that producer guy (I think he is miyomoto) hinted at it, and the concept pic didn't have a sword) so it looks like they are doing something different.

    Although SMgalaxy2 will be smg1.5 (even Miyomoto said so)

  • COOL!

  • whats the deal with the different accent in this one

    u sound like youre moviebob's cousin visiting from boston

  • yeah i thought his voice sounded like a person trying to over do a impersonation of a guy from new york

  • indeed

  • you guys read my mind 0_0

  • you could argue that they shaked up metroid too... anyway good vid

  • So... is Heavenly Guardian worth buying if you like Pocky & Rocky?

  • You sound different inthe Sonic videos.  Accent suppressing?

  • Wait a sec, they actually did fix the storage space issue, could it be that Nintendo actually listened? Not likely, but nonetheless possible.

  • Ima a ps2 and DS fan boy Eat It NextGen and your silly attempt to train the Next Generation of military drones...oops was it supposed to be a secret? [I say that as a US War Veteran]

  • what the heck is with the accent, OverThinker v1- v19 you didn't have an accent

  • It was there, just harder to hear with the mic he was using. NY Accent it sounds like.

  • Actually, it's Boston.

    Wicked awesome, right?

  • please dont ever insult new yorkers again by refering to that as a new york accent

  • Why do you have a boston accent in this video?

  • Yes, you do have issues, but not alot. I mean, you video usually run 10 minutes with more often than not, scenes fast forwarded to fit in the time limit. This was only 6 minutes long

    [I'm analyzing you as you would analyze things, yay!]

  • BONK!

  • all of a sudden... brooklyn accent

  • it's a boston/new england accent.

  • Sorry... i'm british so i don't know all of the differnt accents T_T but it'\s cool all the same :D

  • why did you suddenly stop pronouncing R's in your videos? >.>
