I've really been wanting Tiny Toon Adventures games to get the TMNT: Cowabunga Collection treatment. I feel like it's easily possible unless Warner set the price too high for re-licensing the TTA games to be worth it.

As soon as you said it was made by Treasure I realized why it looked so familiar. It looks like Astro Boy the Omega Factor!

The GBA even having a Tiny Toons game just strikes me as strange. Tiny Toons stopped airing new episodes in 95. The GBA came out in like 2000. And this was back when 5 years in the media/game space was stupid long.

GBA visuals still look great. There's a real charm to this console that really hasn't been recaptured. I mean I love my 3DS but I have a particular fondness for the Advance. Part of it is definitely nostalgia but legit it's one of the greatest consoles of all time. Not just handhelds but everything. I still play GBA games all the time and it's definitely my all-time favorite platform

This show was so good. I love how if you walk into a room of 40 year olds and sing "We're tiny..." someone will start singing it too. Same with the first few notes from Inspector Gadget.

I really dig the GBA reviews since it is like an improved SNES. I just got my SNES flash cart yesterday (FXPak Pro) and I already know I need a GBA one next. I will be checking this channel to see what GBA games pass the SNESDrunk quality test lol. Thank you so very much for keeping this going. I enjoy it so much!

This actually looked kind of like an arcade game, so I thought you were reviewing a lost Tiny Toons arcade game at first. It's cool that's you've drawn attention to an otherwise lost game, though. This is what video game preservation is all about.

Just about every game made by Treasure really is a treasure

Tiny Toones cracked the code on how to have good games in your franchise. Don't have a companies like LJN and Acclaim make your games. Have Konami and Treasure make them!

You can tell the tiny toons were something very special. To have a game released on the gba waaaaay later in the gba's lifespan and the series no longer on air gives you a good idea right? 😊

2:34 It's that creepy chainsaw guy from Tiny Toon Adventures: How I Spent My Vacation and that one episode where he was in an elevator with Baby Plucky.

This game looks INSANE. There might not be much but this is definitely going to have to get a spotlight on stream at some point.

Some “How I spent my summer vacation” baddies in this game. Growing up I watched that movie so many times.

i’m glad you enjoyed the game even if only for 15 minute intervals, i think its very underrated and under appreciated 😃

Hello Drunk, I just wanted to reach out and say how much I love your Channel and your videos! I was born in 1978 so just a little older than you are, so I grew up playing the same games on the same systems as you with the same inaccessibility of certain systems when we were kids LOL A lot of the comments you making your videos I relate to very much, and I always get a laugh or two out of every video you do. I have been binging your 10-hour SNES review, just wanted to reach out and say thank you for the content and the laughs. It's good to know there's others out there like me who feel the same way and have gone through the same things 👍 Thank you for everything. JEDI

I'm always impressed by how good the sprites look in these games. I was able to instantly recognize a character as obscure as "Mr. Hitcher". (Yes, I had to google "tiny toons chainsaw guy" in order to get the name.)

Yeah I had this. It gets old fast and best played in short bursts. Ain't a patch on Konami's Buster Busts Loose from a decade before even graphically but it's ok. It just feels like they kinda got bored developing the game and much of it feels very half-hearted. Like it was simply an engine built for Astro Boy and used Tiny Toons as the prototype... Astro Boy has a LOT more effort and passion put into it.

Buster busts loose on the SNES was the game i grew up with i didnt even know ther wer more titles after that but im glad

Always makes me smile when I see SNESdrunk has uploaded a new video; it's a guaranteed 5 or so minutes of entertainment to sit down and enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea :) Also, you've covered quite a few GBA games over the years now and it would be cool to see a list of your 'Top 13 favourite GBA Games' or something of the like. I'm always looking for cool retro games to pick up and those types of lists are great for that purpose.

Kind of an odd miracle that Tiny Toons is such Solid franchise, video game wise.

1:34 amazing enemy choice These are the grimlens from that bugs cartoon

I remember the ad for this having a full 2-page spread in magazines, they made it look absolutely epic for no reason. 😁

Good review! I don't think I ever even knew about this game. I have to say the art looks really good on the GBA! The cutscene images look ripped straight out of the cartoon! It is too bad the gameplay is so repetitive. I would have loved to have a GBA game similar to Buster's Hidden Treasure (Genesis) or Buster Busts Loose (SNES) that more falls in line of a traditional 2D platformer.

"Sweet dreams are made of these" lmao

Glad you mentioned Astro Boy as that's one of my favorite late GBA titles and very much like a much better version of this title. I would adore a collection of licensed Treasure developed games but I'm almost certain such a thing is practically impossible.

Like Astro Boy? I remember that one! It was mind numbingly fun, thanks for the recommendation, SDrunk

So I ended up finding this game at a Rite Aid of all places back around I think 2009-2010 it was $15 and worth every dime. Similar to how sometime in the 2010s I ran into a copy of veiwtiful Joe 2 for the PS2 rotting away on the shelves of another Rite Aid. As much as that place sells crap you can find some true treasures or at least you could get back in the day.

I have a funny story involving this game. About five years ago, I saw an obvious bootleg copy of Tiny Toon Adventures: Scary Dreams (under the overseas Buster’s Bad Dreams subtitle despite having an ESRB rating) at a pawn shop. I’ve never heard of the game so I looked it up on my phone and read up on it’s peculiarly quiet North American release. While I didn’t buy the bootleg that very day, I eventually caved and got it for $5. It’s the only bootleg I have in my entire game collection (that I know of) but, with a game this rare, there was no way I was going to get a legitimate copy anytime soon. Not for cheap, anyway. One year later, I come across a bunch of quality GBA games for $2.50 - $3 each. Games like Pokémon Sapphire, Kirby & the Amazing Mirror, two different Super Mario Advance titles (1 & 4, if you care) and, you’ve guessed it, Scary Dreams. Yeah I got a legitimate copy of Scary Dreams that day and it cost me HALF the price of the bootleg! Now I have this ugly looking bootleg cart in my collection for no reason. That’ll learn me for self doubting my luck. 😅

Another GBA upload! 👏🏼

I was thinking to myself “wow, that looks a lot like the GBA Astro Boy game” and then you said Treasure made it. Makes sense.

Glad to hear this one is actually solid! Very big of Tiny Toons, and the games.

I agree. The "Tiny Toons" games on the NES and the SNES are both fun little side-scrollers.

I loved that Astro Boy game. I'll have to check this out.

Ha! Midway through the review I thought "This looks too similar to Astro Boy" and bam, there you are! I should try this one too then, loved that game! You should review it too, it's fantastic!

Made by Treasure? Then we're good! Man, tiny toon adventures was just quality when it came to games

I find the fact that they released so many Tiny Toon Adventures and a couple Animaniacs games well after the shows left production. Usually, it's either the hot new thing or something that's been around for decades and has a classics following that get games. Neither show was young enough to still be in production or regular rerun airings nor were they old enough to be considered nostalgic and it would be another 2 decades before either had a revival. I appreciate the hell out of WB and game developers still wanted to do things with the licenses, don't get me wrong. It's just weird that those were made then. Anyway, I played this, and it's not a bad game, but it's one of those obnoxious styles of Beat 'em ups where the wave after wave of constant enemy attacks gets excessive, repetitive, and just plain tedious. Plus the bosses take way too many hits. But most of them are references to other episodes, mostly "How I Spent my Summer Vacation," so at least it makes the most of the license.

a Tiny Toons beat'em up...what a premise. I am curious on how well this did back then both here and in Europe. by 2002 and def. by 2005, TT wasn't really in the zeitgeist anymore (i guess you could argue even more about Astroboy, and they released that later on). The HUD makes it look like a fighting game...that could be a fun premise too..

Dude i just had dejavu..the comment about tiny toons gettin a collection..swear ive seen that before or im just a nutjob. Anyways great video..i know what im playing on SNES tonight

“Any way you can” 🏴‍☠️

Hampton actually summons food to heal you but takes a bit to prepare it and if hit, he f's out

Man I love treasure, but I feel like I always miss a few games

We're all waiting for your review of both oracle zelda games for gbc!

Thank you.

Loved the show, loved the games.

"There aren't any bad ones" Tiny Toon Adventures for the Playstation has entered the chat...

Great sprites

Visuals are insanely good.

There aren’t any bad ones… if you disregard all the ps1 games 😅

Never heard of this game. Looks awesome.

Whoa, pseudo stop-frames. Super satisfying. Not enough games use stop-frames. It’s one reason (of many) I play NieR replicant on PS3 instead of modern platforms. Crazy stop frames.

0:15 that ten times fast 😂

This game looks legitimately really good :0

I really enjoyed the 8 and 16 bit tiny toons games

I was wondering why this game had a weird release, because you cannot find this listed in Treasure’s official website. This game was developed at a time when Treasure was focused on licensed games, both as an exercise of their style, and trying new, innovative ideas to put in their future works. But there is more to the story behind this game, the early 2000s was rough to them, as a few of their works were either really negative like Silpheed: lost planet, or controversial like Ikaruga (Before it got acclaimed by the Xbox re-release). Eventually they recovered with Gradius V, Omega Factor, and Wario world, but at this point they were in a testing period of adapting their style with the times. If you do plan to finish the Treasure GBA games, there’s Hajime no Ippo, Guardian Heroes Advance, and Gunstar Super Heroes. The last two are notable for playing nothing like their originals, and even borrowing ideas between each other (Superheroes has a stronger story, Advance is a linear action game), and I can go even further to say Ubisoft did a poor job translating Guardian Heroes Advance, so that’s a fair warning if you do visit the game.

I seriously had no idea there were so many Tiny Toons games.

This game looks fantastic

When I was watching this it def put me in the mind of astroboy, now I know why

I didn't know Tiny Toons had so many games. I just had one on SNES and one on Genesis.

I had that game but I could only get past the first stage. It was really hard but I hope to finish it someday.

oh gord you reminded me of the max reboot, I had blissfully forgotten about that. I feel it might be dreadful.

Yeah boi!

i love astro boy so ill play this one

Looks fun although it also feels like the variety is limited. GBA and all I guess!

There's an HBO Max reboot? Holy crap, I had no idea! 😮

"Or sweet dreams are made of these -- or whatever you want to call this." Made me laugh. Heh.

This was a Treasure game? I thought this game reminded me of Astro Boy: Omega Factor with the beat 'em up mechanics!

Shit,just realized that while I grew up on the toon,I have never played any of the games. Crazy. That Astro Boy Game is good,spent several hours on it.

If SNESdrunk calls Buster's nightmares, or scary dreams, or sweet dreams are made of these a good game... ...🎵 who am iiiiii to disagree 🎶

A Tiny Toons game released after 2000? I believe it but that really surprises me.

I have Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Hidden Treasure

Wow, one look and you can see where Astro Boy The Omega Factor got its roots 😅

Please do more GBA reviews!

No bad Tiny Toons games? The PS1 would like a word with you...

This game was directed by Imran Sarwar, who would go on to co-direct GTA4 and GTA5.

We’re Tiny We’re Toony We’re All A Little Loony And In This Cartooni We’re Invading Your TV

There's also Tiny Toons Wacky Stackers on the GBA

God damn he's comboing like dante

❤❤

I wouldn't say I'm a detective, but I think I'm starting to crack the code on his "any way you can" language 👀

Good work (play)

They’re tiny, they’re toony, they’re all a little snnnnnnesdrunk!

@SNES drunk Can you one day find it in your heart to do a video covering all the Soccer games ever released on SNES? I'll say that the PAL exclusive Manchester United game is the absolute worst of all the ones I've played (plus I hate Man United). The best IMO would either be ISS Deluxe or PAL exclusive FIFA Road to World Cup 98. Probs ISS Deluxe, though. I recently got a SNES, and there are so many soccer games, with a fair few Japanese exclusives and such. FYI I'm calling it "soccer" so you don't think I mean USA football 😂

The last game in which Buster and Babs are lovers instead of siblings.

Gonna have to play it lover see what happens

Mid 2000s seems pretty late for a Tiny Toons game. Maybe that's why it was initially shelved, along with a PS2 game. Might have to try it out sometime.

I'm looking at those damage numbers...some parts of the video having 2 digits and others with 3 digits. So...is it an RPG Beat Em Up?

i just want to inform everyone that this video -- as of 6 hours post-publication -- has 0 downvotes. bravo SNES drunk!

😊great

Yo, a game made in 2002 for a show that debuted in 1990.

Time to go bust out buster busts loose

It's amazing so many games were made for such a length of time for a cartoon whose original run lasted, what? Two seasons?

"Not any bad ones." OK Mr drunk, time to go to the ps1 cabinet and get your fill of those 3 games. Believe me, they are.

The sprites look like they’re plucked straight from Buster Busts Loose

That. That. That. That. That. That. That. That. That. That.

SNNEEESSSSSSS

I remember playing the last level of advance wars for 42hrs on gba…talk about mileage.

Pausing at 2:20 to say: This Tiny Toons game looks like it's based on the work Treasure did for their game Astro Boy: Omega Factor. EDIT: Turns out it was the other way around lol

Him: Buster's bad dreams, scary dreams or sweet dreams are made of this... Me: ...who am I to disagree 😂

Sometime you should say 'SMES Drunk!' at the beginning of one of your videos just to confuse everyone.

i still had the game as a kid but its just pirated and kinda scuffed in first level when the football players always freezes the game. Whats even funny when i had this bootleg copy, it took the movie poster of Looney Tunes Back in Action and thought it might be a Looney Tunes games on GBA. but nope its Tiny Toons and they're game title was just Tiny Toons 2 on the front. But on the back, they use the screenshots of Tiny Toons Busters bust loose. i didnt have it on the box but i had the game cart. And this was basically the first time i discovered tiny toons since i watched on YT with 7 watching some cutscenes. even the NES and Snes games. i also watched few of the reboot. it was neat, yeah the sibling part is a very questionable thing but atleast it wasnt as bad as i thought. sure the catchphrase of no relation is missing and doesnt feel original, but to me the show wasnt really a big part to me to buster and babs falling in love. Of course it sounds extremly nasty to hear that but yeah i undeestand why people miss that way. i could probably think they try to put more character dynamics like wirh the ducktales reboot. Its more a controversial part, but hey, Montana Max and Elmyra are there in the reboot. i'll say, Tiny Toons Looniversity was decent atleast, not groundbreaking but i enjoyed. and also the game of course but Astro Boy Omega Factor is way better but its pricey to get the OG copy.
