thank god new sleep aid just dropped

I smashed that like button faster than a Florida recount

I wonder how much of this will be relevant for Metroid Prime 4, when ever it gets finished.

Timestamps for your convenience: 0:00: Intro 0:14: Disaster: Day of Crisis 19:23: Star Fox Adventures 35:37: Devil's Third 54:35: Donkey Kong 64 1:15:28: Nintendo Gamecube 1:46:02: Metroid Other M 2:03:18: Conker's Bad Fur Day 2:24:58: Body Harvest 2:41:21: Bayonetta 3 3:01:06: Star Fox Zero 3:18:20: The Wii U 3:37:12: Geist

Never played Conker Bad Fur Day, but do enjoy watching other people play it due how gruesome and out of nowhere it can get.

I dont know why, but hearing Ol' Matthew getting royally pissed about MonolithSoft not being a U.S. based games maker is funnier than it has any right to be. 😂😂😅

Putting the thirst trap in the thumbnail was a smart play.

Know what I'm watching when I go to bed tonight.

Is that a mothafuckin SCOTT THE WOZ REFERENCE

That Spyro flying bug got me lol. If I was the dev discovering that he just sometimes stops animating and flips upside-down staring into my soul.. I would've needed a nap immediately..blurg.

Glad Matt gave me yet another vid I can add to my sleeping video playlist.

3 hrs?! Idk if I have the brain muscle to retain this, but i'll give it my all this morning!

I just love how Nintendo felt hesitant about releasing disaster, while their digital shop has always been filled with dumpsterfire.

Shout out to ScottTheWoz. Him and Matt McMuscles are two of the funniest video gaming channels on this platform.

3 hours!!!! Let's go!!!!!!

I always thought Disaster:DOC was outright canceled, I never knew it released!

Starfox Assault was the right step to progress the series... but sadly the controls are cluncky and on foot missions were just the multiplayer maps re-used. But it had the right idea.

Sorry I was thinking of the WWF tag team of the Natural Disasters Typhoon and Earthquake.

Odd ive just been rewatching all the What happened and the worst Fighting game compilations while at work and now this drops. Thank you

The story of how Metroid prime was made is absolutely insane. I’m not sure that any games development will ever top it.

I gotta like it for the pro-wrestling references.

And here I was hoping Matt would somehow d0 a video about Neil Breen this week...

In Nintendo's defense, they were right about DVDs, they were just off by a decade.

Watching this makes me remember when kotaku actually covered video game news. LOL

Happy 4/20 to us! 😊

Nintendo manages to capture lightning in a bottle every 10 to 15 years. Wii and Swith are an example. Edit: Switch

1:15 bro I had to look up the name to Make sure I had it right after all these years

Thanks!

Hey Matt I love these mega compilations and appreciate them since I listen to them at work!

The amount, and quality, of the content you make impresses me. I love all of it.

Very interesting topic. Back in the early 2000s I meet a guy at some hiphop event in Germany who was working for Nintendo of Europe in Frankfurt. He was responsible for the German translations for games like Metroid Prime etc. And he told me a thing or two about the Nintendo - Rare relationship and the development of StarFox Adventures. Still liked the game, just the Arwing sections were quite a let down. Hope they soon bring back the (space shooter) series...

Woo! Thanks Matt. I got a pretty long shift tonight. I need the background noise

I appreciate videos like this more than anything omg

If Scott the Woz ever gets cancelled, this thumbnail is gonna be extra funny

LETS GOOO Ive been waiting for this one!!

Thanks for the marathon edit 🍻

23:02 ... Get's me everytime haha

I know what I'm listening to at work tonight.

28:45 - my brain only heard the lyrics of that song….

1:49:25 I hear that SA2 soundtrack in there. Loved that game. 🤘

Will there Be a What Happened Dnf Duel episode

Damn. people use this to sleep? I love finding out stuff I don't know. I watched the 9+ hour Mega Man Lore Video from that one guy like a dozen times. Matt is my new favorite. 1:08:45 And yes They should have dumped the Cache after a number of items CAME an LEFT the screen. The mem-pack wasn't really needed "A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one”" - Palpatine.

dont take this the long way ur voice and ur deep dives...put me to sleep lol...best way posssible its 100% a compliment

Itd be cool to see a great 3rd person Metroid game.

3:19:45 Oh god, the R-Zone...mine was so ghetto that like the AVGN's, I lost that little plastic flip down reflector/magnifier, so it was a lot of fun basically playing a harsh red Tiger game...on a screen that was about 2x2 inches...and all the controller buttons were on see-saw switches (A connected to B, X connected to Y)...WTF? so the corner of the face buttons would dig into your finger if you tried to do a slide press...if it weren't for the Scannerz line's stupid loading times, I'd say R-zone is the worst... At least there was something a bit closer to actual "pixels" playing "Megaman" on my TI-87/89+ (that I could play in science and math class, lol)...and the only reason I remember that is because one of the only 4 robot masters was...Cash Man...who was literally a dollar sign...apparently a fan game brought him back in 2018...but I'm talking about a game I played in high school in 2000-03...I met a dude super into early emu...I think he was Korean, named James. Sat beside me in "Typing" class (Win98), and he somehow basically put a GB Megaman game on my graphing calculator (which, if you ever tried to find slopes or curves, a "Premium" graphing calculator has only a slightly lower res. and actually more ram and available storage overall than a GameBoy) but that's just echoing it's creator's mantra (Gunpei Yokoi)..."Think about re-purposing what you have before creating something entirely new." So, he used an under-powered calculator processor, tweaked the display to be smoother, though green...and added on the modular capability of insert-able disks... ...does anyone else remember the calculator Megaman game?

Every time i see that intro, I know I'm in for a good time

1:01:51 STAMP out more collectables!

Body harvest was my life

Thank you and good night!

I absolutely loved star fox adventures

Batocera for your Linux distro for testing retro games

considering how long we've been waiting for any kind of actual proper reveal or announcement of the damn thing, i'm eagerly awaiting the future episode about the Switch 2.

Bro I don’t even know how I ended up here but it’s now morning and the video is at 3:05:00 😭😭???? I never clicked on this

I have both Project X games for the 3DS & they're not brilliant but they're fun.

Bro is gonna need to do a what happened on Rugby 2024 which has somehow been delayed by over 6 months despite being a yearly sports game release

That DBZ Final Bout music 🎶 👍

I wanna see a Flophouse Files

I was going to skip through to find the one I haven't watched but I watched them all already lol. Hey just wondering if you ever looked into an old Ubisoft game called "I Am Alive" might fit well with the current Fallout excitement and popularity as an overlooked game set in post apocalyptic world. The game really felt like it suddenly had it's release date pushed up and they cut massive amounts to push it out. Was wondering if you had any sources on it to better explain the proverbial "What Happened"

Conkers bad fur day was a Mature game and I don't blame Toy stores not stocking it. I would've looked at someone sideways too trying to drop off mature content to a kids toy store. Now Nintendo Power that is messed up. How can a company make you an exclusive and you don't even bother to put it in your major magazine. Nintendo did a disservice to them for that. Rare showed brand loyalty to them and Nintendo slapped them in the face with that. Shows why they lost so much good will with 3rd party developers.

Can't wait for the enviable Metroid Prime 4 episode!

3 hours!? Damn

Some sick madman is going to port Devil's Third to the Switch purely out of spite

oh yeah new mat :3

A welcome 420 surprise. Thanks!

Surprised you haven't done a Wha Happun on the Virtual Boy or F-Zero GP Legend yet?

Hey, y'all! Greasy Content Lord here!

2:31:06 Matt uses any sources he can. ... ANY sources

@1:41:19 the guy on the left looks like an Asian John Lithgow.

i was one og the suckers who bought body harvest at the store. Also silicon valley. Game sucked as a kid and still now lol. My go to games were mk trilogy, turok 2, Conkers, Mario 64, KI Gold, Bomberman and DK64 during n64 era. My friends had Smash and Pokemon amd mario party so I only played when at their house. Good times

WHERE MUH WHUHHAPPLUSHIE AT??

We still need scarlet and violet wha happun

1:45:51 song name ?

01:01:05 THAT WASN'T VERY GO TO SLEEP OF YOU

What RPG is that at 3:55?

Can I just say that, you almost never mention a Nintendo game in what happened. Until now.

I think Simmons (from Yovideogames) said it right when he mentioned about how Nintendo sometimes struggles in their gaming department. Now what he means is that when Nintendo is having difficulty they put a lot more effort into their games but when there’s very successful they’re kind of like slow on the draw. When you look at the Wii U as an example about their development history there were several good games on that system that did work for them but they never put a lot of effort when the NexGen console is around the corner

Star Fox Zero having an intentional learning curve, yeah fancy way of saying the controls were mutilated

❤❤❤

Nintendo going to GameCube is so silly to make proprietary disk. Couldn't even store them in cd cases like you could with your Playstation games. Just made it a pain in the a** to store games. I find it interesting they didn't just have Sakimoto on the team with the Metroid games. Instead they for some reason thought it was a good idea to have multiple ongoing Metroid games being developed.

Ah, good ole Babyroid: Other Baby! Wherein beloved Samus fell into the same trap that game developers put Lara Croft and Aya Brea into: our heroines need to be "vulnerable", whimpering children! I'm sure everyone of every sex and gender won't absolutely hate that! Should me maybe have a woman write the characters? Hell no! Thank God that developer trend passed quickly. Prequels to anything present an inescapable problem; it is never going to match up to the speculation fans have formed in their heads. It shears away the mystery and intrigue. It doesn't just not satisfy everyone; it doesn't satisfy anyone. Take Darth Vader, for example. We knew he was a badass, evil space wizard. When you have him whine a lot as a teenager and then murder a bunch of toddlers, well, yeah that's super evil. But it isn't badass! And now everyone hates you for it. A prequel will never match up to the expectations of anyone but the person writing it.

Part of Wii U downfall I feel also had to do with how fed up people where with gimmicks at that point. After the Wii's success everyone was scrambling for a piece of the pie just like when Battle Royales first took off. However after some questionable games where release from well known series that where bogged down by gimmicks like skyward sword, and just "experiences" being sold on PlayStation move and Xbox Kinect. People didn't have any good faith in the direction of gimmicks unless it was a hand held. Thats why DS was ok but when it came to a console people wanted something that would get a game that would only rely on good gameplay using a basic controller.

Wahoo im early >w

It's really wild how clueless this company is sometimes and yet how unfathomably lucky they've been when other companies (cough sega cough) made a couple small mistakes and got absolutely yeeted out of the console industry.

What happened to Nintendo? Why are they such Greedy Bullies
