Honestly, this game was my favorite when I was a child. To me, it was always really exciting. It really has a special place in my heart.

they should think about re-releasing this as an app, considering what kind of shit passes for a mobile game this would actually be pretty high standard.

The funny thing about this game is that deep down, I always found it okay at best, yet I couldn't stop playing it. There was something strangely addictive about this that no other Digimon game had, and I don't know what it is.

This game actually simulates marriage and family.

Oh my god, I've been thinking about this for YEARS. Oh how I've wished bandai released an improved version of this game on mobile. However, I think you dislike the game more than it deserves, probably because you tried to play it like a normal game and rush through it for a video. I played this a lot when it came out and took my time with it and had a blast, although I recognize most, if not all problems you had with it. But It always gave me the feeling that the idea could've been improved.

I 100% completed this game last year, and if the End Day button was a person I would ask them to prom.

Its one of my favorite Digimon games

I got this game when my family evacuated to my uncles for hurricane ike(2008) it kept me entertained for the 2 weeks we were there and then it got left on the shelf when I finally figured out how to play pokemon and digimon world dawn effectively.

This was actually my favourite game as a kid.

I was a very young child when I played this game, so young that I don’t remember doing much other than catching and feeding them. I still played for hours and im gonna look for another copy now

I recently had the urge to play a *monster taming/fighting RPG and something other than Pokémon.* Looking them up, I saw many mention Digimon games. I had watched the anime as a wee kid and remember enjoying it and not much else. Then I remembered you did a series of videos on them so I binge watched them and reached here. Now I'm more confused then before. Not because you did a bad job or anything, quite the contrary they were very well done. I'm confused at the so wildly varying quality of of every title in the series, that I don't know which to pick up. I understood that World 3, DigiDS and Next Order are the good ones, but even then they have their own huge ups and downs. Sorry, my incompetent brain couldn't process the detailed breakdowns you gave in all of your videos.

I loved this game as a kid. I’d ply it for hours

Dorumon is my favorite Pokemon.

Damn, now i want to spend 100 hours on this game again. Thanks Caspbama

"Pray to whatever DreamWhale you believe in." Nice.

wow, daddy casp uploads again, nice review as always.

This sent me on a nostalgia trip, I swear. I miss this game and this video contains good criticism so to that I say great video

Man I love this game, very nostalgic. I was just content with nice pixel art battles and nice music. I hope the battle style will be used in a future game (Digimon or not).

I had a lot of good times with it as a kid, and I'd yell at the DS somehow thinking encouraging my digimon would make them do better, but it usually just ended up with me out of breath, disappointed and upset at my digimon's general incompetence, and further disappointment in their penchant for evolving into skull mammothmon. Coming back to it, it's always nice to remind yourself how low your standards were as a child.

In this time of uncertainty I'm glad I can play End Day Simulator

When I was little I played the shit out of DWC. It's not super good, but I loved it.

I played this game for many many hours as a kid because back in 2009 I only had this and pokemon diamond.I had mixed feeling for it due to its odd auto-gameplay.And I also remeber one of my friends suggesting me to use an action replay catridge to get that one digimon control method,making this hell of game less painful.

And it's still the DS Digimon game I enjoyed the most, Caspaboo. I don't see the matches so uneventful, but everything else I agree with you, even though I still love to play it. The absence of the adventure aspect is more explicit in the japanese name (without the "world" in it). I'm actually surprised that Cyber Sleuth didn't get a "World" slapped on it's title.

Ahh, a Digimon review. A Casp-Classic. ;) This game does give me a Tamagotchi meets Monster Rancher vibe, based on what I saw in the video. With some tweaks, I could see it working as a mobile game. But yeah, definitely looks disappointing in the form. Great video!

Caspmon best digimon

Bro your channel is underrated af

2:48 Well, it is really frustrating to be just one stat point off to get the desired digivolution, just so that the day ends and the next start with your virtual pet digivolving into something you did not desire.

"As your reward for beating the game, you can now play the game" Wtf, who designed this?

Enjoyed the game as is, for the most part, though you do bring up valid points. Don't always need a story to be a good game, particularly if you're there for the virtual pet aspect on its own.

I still love this game, have replayed it more than 7 times.

I know that like it would be suited for mobile but something about it on the ds just works better for me, I'm not really sure why it just feels better. There's a similar game someone developed that is a bit like this one but just didn't hit the same mark as it would on the ds. I literally cannot explain it, I find myself coming back to this specific digimon game all the time and I don't know why lol

I wish you'd get to adventure PSP sooner but i'm gonna wait as long as it needs

I played this game to hell and back years ago and I always wanted it to reach the potential it could’ve had, but didn’t.

I legit played this when it came out and all I ever remembered about it all these years was hating the leash system for catching new Digimon. It's no wonder I couldn't remember the story, there was nothing to remember lol

I loved this game as a kid man, and I still really enjoy it! I wish they gave this formula another attempt for a spin off.

I love this game and well bud you earned my sub.

Always had a fondness for Digimon and Monster Rancher 2 is one of my all time favorites. I think some part of my mind will not accept the likelihood that I wouldn't enjoy this experience. That said, I am painfully curious to see what a FFXII style gambit system could do with this game's hands off battle system.

I played this game after Digimon World Dawn and assumed it was a sequel. When there was no story, I was disappointed. When there no control in battle, I thought I was doing something wrong. I didn’t know lots of Digimon games have AI combat, or that there’s still an audience for it. Probably the least favorite game I’ve ever played.

One of my favorite Digimon games and in my opinion how a Digimon MMO should be(close to): >Player Avatar customization >Start with a Baby (random or chosen) digimon >Train and digivolve to different forms with different training conditions >Compete against other players >Get more digimons and train >Exploring Most people really hate the "Tamagochi/V-pet" gameplay system but i like alot. If you are a good tamer your digimon become a good digivolution badass digimon who win every time, if not the digimon become a shit, literally (Sukamon lol), and only lost battles. The game have alot of digimons, from baby to mega, with alot digivolutions lines (now we have this in Cybersleuth and Next Order), what i always wanted. There are some flaws but overall is very fun (when you know how to play).

Im so crap at time management that when i was found out xcom had a time limit to the champaign i immediately stopped playing after saving the game and never went back lol.

goddamn it, now i wanna dump hours into this game again even tho i will regret it

You are the only reason someone would ever catch me dead watching Digimon.

T E A M D A D D Y

One of my favourite ds game when i was kid, i love this game more than digimon world ds

This is literally probably the first Digimon game I played as a kid, another being a game related to the Data Squad Series weirdly enough, but I honestly really liked Championship as a wee lad...you know....IF I COULD ACTUALLY FIGURE OUT HOW TO DIGIVOLVE INTO ACTUALLY GOOD DIGIMON, thats something I still don't understand to this day, and I don't know if this is just a thing in most digimon games but I just don't like it, like is it really ok for there to not even be a hint as to what requirements are required to digivolve into the coolest digimon? Like I had nothing, could only ever digivolve to Vadermon and maybe a handful of Megas that only required passing time to get. It took until maybe 4-5 years ago for me to come back to the game and just look up the requirements, and then I destroyed all the remaining opponents I had. For real though I really did love this game as a kid, and I did still enjoy it when I came back after you know...actually being able to get strong digimon. So ya.

thanks for the epicness

Don't be so hard on yourself, your dedication to digmin is what sets you apart and lead me to subscribe. Keep up your unique work and I'll keep SMASHING that like button.

It does seem like some kind of unholy mobile game. It is unique and I kind of like the idea of having a timer on overall play and having to schedule around it, making sure you have certain digimon by the end of the month/year etc. I think with a slightly different combat system and light exploring elements it could have been interesting.

This is still one of my favorite DS games of all time because I'm a digimon nerd and I thought it was fun. I still won't invalidate your opinion though, it is pretty crappy if you look back on it.

I loved this game also your digimon remember thier previous lives so snow agumon can just decide he wants to be tyranomon or black greymon its kinda funny tbh i was like oh my goodness you chose that despite me raising your dragon you just went down a whole different path

I always get sad by how Bandai treats some of their franchises, especially digimon. my friend described it best: an identity crisis. This game, released as an actual mobile app with the appropriate care put into it, combined with the functionality of Pokemon Bank / Home so you can take these mons into more traditional mainline games... is my absolute perfect idealization of a virtual pet franchise. and the fact that I have YET to see any company actually fully go down this route absolutely baffles me. the amount of potential revenue something like this could generate?! and it could be done in a way that wouldn't even be bad for PR. and yet, all we get for mobile games from digimon are cheap gachas that only last a couple years at best per. RIP digimon heroes, that was actually fun.

Any thoughts on Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth: Hacker's Memory?

Funny enough I remember playing a Japanese rom of this game before it was even released outside of Japan. I actually enjoyed this game funny enough

I got this game once. Couldn't figure out how to get the Digievolutions I wanted, and eventually gave up and got Dawn.

about fucking time we got another fix of our digimang crack innit? Can't wait for the next video. This one might even be out by christmas~

This looks painful to play. You're doing the Lord's work, son!

I agree the game is so underrated. It’s so good.

Out of curiosity do you plan on reviewing the mobile apps/the Appmon game and the ones that were just released in Japan?

OMG Youkonon is on there! She is better looking than Kyuubimon to be honest. Now i HAVE to get this game.

You can get a Ticaramon early in the first area eventually after you get bombs...just bomb him and rope him up....and man it makes a lot of fights easier

i remember playing this as a child,this game introduced me to emulated games and english,so many memories.The only shitty thing was seeing your huge ass mammooth dying and becoming an egg a day before a mega only level tournament

1:06 whats that game?

Wow what a fun mobile phone game

Dude do you know about the new app game that was announce today? looks like they went towards what you want, exaclty what you want

In 2018-2020 this would be a cash shoppy mess that would make millions a day

i feel like playing a digimon game which one would you say is the best?

Yes, pray to me. This seems like a game that would absolutely work as a companion to a main series title. Like, DIGIMON WORLD: STINKY URETHRA comes out on the fucken...playstation 4, you can carry your digimans on your phone, train them in this and then put them back in the game. As a full priced stand-alone it looks garbo.

Digimon Rangers, Digimon are the champions!

can you do a video from fossil fighters champions?

Did you play on an emulator or a DS? I noticed some of the things you mentioned when trying on emulator and realized how much better of an experience I had playing on a DS so that might be why or nostalgia googles who can really say.

The evolution is a bit more complicated than that. The time based evolution have two variables, either they turn into what they are supposed to (time based evolution) or they turn into something in their past lives (I think the 'mons "memory" would cover up to 3 lifes/generations so you could get anything from those options). I believe you can control the camera with the buttons as well. It is not a bad game but it is not a game for everybody, this is essentially an updated version of the original LCD Digitalmon Monster V-pet toy, if you don't enjoy raising virtual pets then you won't enjoy this game, otherwise you will have lots of fun with this game. That and you can still battle other players even without Wi-Fi. this game has a "password system" so you can view a team's password, send it to somebody and have that person battle your team and vice versa. EDIT: You do NOT gain control over one of your digimon just for beating the championship, you do need to complete the Digipedia (ugh). What you get for completing the championship is new hunting areas, new cage upgrades and new matches that provide you with new cages (this doesn't sound like much but there's a particular cage that allows you to train "battles" without actually wasting your time in a battle).

I notice Back when I was a Kid that the Korean version allows you tô control the digimons from the very start

man i love this game

Now you gotta cover Card Battle

I bought this game a long time ago, was so excited, played it once and was so disappointed. You're spot on about this being good as a mobile app.

yo have you seen the new Digimon Game Digimon Survive? Seems like Digimon is going to take a much darker turn. Heck if you pay attention to the part when it says "Death and Danger" in the trailer you'll see a blood splatter effect.

I love this game

I actually played this a lot as a kid.

Oh, loved the game. All I have to do to be able to control the digimon, but was worth it.

THIS GAME. This is the game that, imo, led to the drought of Digimon games in the west for all those years! Now, the two games that came after it on the DS, Digimon Story Lost Evolution and Digimon Story Super Xros Wars Red/Blue, would have sold well enough had they been released in the west. Hell, having played the latter on an emulator, I can say from experience that it is actually difficult- those 500+ stats that would almost one-shot the final boss in Dawn/Dusk? Yeah, you're going to need stats like that to even stand a chance against the final boss in Super Xros Wars. However, after this game bombed, Namco-Bandai decided that Digimon games just "weren't popular enough" in the west, and thus Lost Evolution and Super Xros Wars ended up being Japan-exclusive. Yes, it was TOTALLY because Digimon games were no longer popular enough to bother localizing and not because this game was such a break from the RPG format that made Dawn/Dusk what they were. I could list the things wrong with this game, but this comment is already a wall of text as it is, and besides, that's what Casp's video is for.

My biggest problem with the game is that when your digimon resets back to the digiegg it feels like lossed progress, and digivolving into what you want requires a guide.

oh god I remember this, me and a friend played it on an emulator and it was easily one of the worst digimon games ever and then to top it all off after all that hard work a lot of the mega evolutions people like are no where to be seen and were stuck with manga shit like Victorygreymon and Z'dgarurumon

I thought the blue thing in the thumbnail was a Feraligatr.

0:26 Digimon Titties WTF ahuihaioshpaushusjiasosa

What other VpetRPGs are there?

This game was a fairly entertaining distraction for me. The hunting was certainly trash, the fights didn't feel important, but the time limits and the many digimon to take care of at the same time made it feel like a management game that goes at a relatively fast pace. Maybe it's because I didn't play it so much, and it was not that long ago so I was already used to uneventful phone games to appreciate how this one plays, but as a distraction, I thought it was pretty okay

0:29 no ones talking about one of the apps... one of these things is not like the others, one of these just doesn't belong.

Damn lol I've never seen someone miss the whole point of a game so badly

How can i play this game on my phone

Sounds fun xD kinda like a kairosoft game

clearly digimon rumble arena is the best of them all

Fuckin loved this game i played it after i beat digimon world 4 which was dog shit. Your point about it being a great mobile game is so true IDK WHY bandai doesnt make a replica and put it on mobile

Whats that game on 0:59 ? Ty for the answer

I really liked this back in the day, but lookin' at it now it does highkey suck

Wait we were able to move a digimon in battle after the championship??? 🥴

Tbh I loved this game.

DIGIMON WORLD PS1!!

i agreed that this game should be in mobile phone... too bad it feel not worth on ds....

I feel like I’m out of the loop. What’s the problem with Pokémon?

Digimon.....tidies ? Who would make that?!?
