I’m curious how many Atlus games Nyarly owns physically. It’d be kind of cool to see him do a video of his collection.

Rule of Rose is such a gem. I remember joking about it when hollywood was talking abt making a female only Lord of the Flies adaptation like "dude just buy the rights to Rule of Rose" but only like one of my friends got it haha Dokapon Kingdom is also fun af, though idk how well it'd hold up for me now, having gotten into hobby board games since the last time I played it.

My sister has a copy of Rule of Rose. It's one of her favorite games. It's a haunting, but charming game.

4:07 Steambot Chronicles is the nexus point of so many of my loves in video games, and any attention it gets is always appreciated. It had so many different things for a small PS2 game. Customizable robot vehicles, a simulated economy, day/night cycles where the people who walk around town change, a giant land-ship battle, the horrors of capitalism, classism, and even the rare anti-industrialist messaging, Pablo Picasso, artifact hunting, rhythm minigames, the wright brothers, the Persian gulf war, zeppelins, batman. It really had it all.

Dokapon Kingdom is a game I have fond memories of. I remember watching The Runaway Guys play this game and ended up finding a used copy of it for about 50 bucks at a remote GameStop. I remember playing it with some friends from college and it took us a quarter or two of school to beat it. Still, it was definitely one of the most fun experiences I had with friends, despite the yelling.

The first thing I actually thought of when I saw the rose symbol was actually Eternal Poison. One of my roommates back in college had that. I actually got Dokapon Kingdom back when it was new, but I got the (somehow) inferior PS2 version. The major differenc was there was voice acting on the Wii version. Also shoutout to the Samurai Western cinematic at the beginning!

I once played Dokapon kingdom with my friend for 24 hours straight. We got to a point where we were invincible to all of the monsters for our area (some sort of windswept canyon full of flying monsters). We were really confused when the game didn't end after we saved the princess. We started as a group of 4, but went down to 2 around 1am. We were still going when the others woke up. I don't know how long it actually goes, but it's a while.

I saw Rule of Rose for 700 bucks at my retro shop. I joked that I would come back with that 700.

I remember back in the day I had to make CERTAIN that I had pre-ordered any Atlus game I wanted before it came out because my local EB would get in like ten copies at most. If I didn't pre-order it, I wasn't playing it.

rule of rose has always fascinated me. the gameplay isn't... great but it's one of my favourite narratives in a video game. the way it's executed is interesting and i really connected with its story and themes. im glad you covered it here.

Whenever Atlus re-releases games, I'm there day one. That being said, no way in hell I'm paying +$100 for Apocalypse or raidou kuzunoha 2 no matter how good they are. If Atlus wants my money they know how to get it.

Rule of Rose...that game haunts me for different reason. 10ish years ago I was at a game store that was going out of business. I was bought a few random games, nothing special, but one game caught my eye. Behind the counter, top shelf by itself was Rule of Rose, for $20. I had never heard of the game at the time so I knew nothing about it, and with my limited funds I ended up passing on the game. Honestly if the game wasn't so secluded and easily spotted behind the counter I may have never noticed it. A few years ago I finally heard of the game and man...do I wish I just spent that $20

Odin Sphere is one of my all time favourite, played it since PS2 version then buy it again as Leifthrasir version on PSVita and still playing it from time to time.

Operation Darkness is my pick for the next Atlus game to become $200 rare & expensive. Also Tears for Tiara 2 and Lost Dimensions for PS3. 3D dot game Heroes is a little too common to hit $100 but it could come close because demand is so strong. Shiren the Wanderer on Wii as well as baroque and Trauma Team are really uncommon on the Wii as well as being great games.

Bunch for the ps1 But that would just make the video longer. Tail concerto Thousand arms *which is awesome Even persona 1and 2 is abit pricey

So cool Dokapon Kingdom is returning! Things like this happening give me hope for certain franchises i love. Same with Baten Kaitos coming back too.

I remember playing steambot chronicles on a demo disc and it was such a hazy memory that I thought I dreamt the game up until this video

Thank you for talking about Steambot Chronicles!!! One of my favorite games on the PS2. I remember getting it for Christmas when I was younger and playing harmonics on the street corner for hours lol. The combat definitely isn't the best and it's probably the weakest point. But I still think it holds up and has a lot of soul!

Now I know that Wacky Races had a game published by Altus (was wondering why Dick Dastardly was on the thumbnail)

i didnt knew about rule of rose but the game aged very nicelly. visually the game looks very good imo.

Cruisader of Centy for the Sega Genesis is another great game! A great 2D Zelda clone!

Odin Sphere is one of the most interesting results considering the fact the game itself was one of the most interesting combat loops I've ever played. It's like a hybrid of a beat em up action rpg, it's combat loop However can literally be customized to pratically... anything you want, to the point you can use skills in fighting game esc combinations, the gameplay as a whole was made very smart... minus the inconsistent frame rate and skill hunting itself. It's easily the most interesting game I've ever seen, glad it got a remaster

I have a physical copy of steambot chronicles. What drew me in to buy it was the art style and saw some gameplay footage and it looked fun. I did end up enjoying it and The controls were a bit weird but it never took me out of it. Also if I recall it wasn't to hard and it felt laid back which is a good thing. Wouldn't mind a remaster to just pop in current consoles. I mean theres not a lot of games like it.

True story: Me and 3 friends would get together and play dokapon kingdom for hours every Friday for months. We never finished because the game was actually ruining our friendship with how nasty we got with each other. So fair warning, make sure you keep a cool head when playing

Hi! Great video, but I do have a suggestion. Please try filtering the eBay listings to "Sold" instead of active listings. Anyone can list a game for whatever price they want. Pulling data from only sold listings is the closest price others are willing to pay for these retro games. You can also use the site pricecharting for solid price estimates.

(sees Dokapon Kingdom in the thumbnail) ...oh god

I am losing my mind from the Dokapon rerelease, especially as someone who paid a decent amount for the original. Love this game so much

Dokapon journey was one of the first games I emulated on ds when I was first getting into emulation. I love it so much

When ever I'm looking at games at junk stores and stuff that Atlus logo always stands out to me hahaha

Nyarly: We're starting off with Steambot Chronicles. Me: ClementJ642, a.k.a., the Great Clement has a full playthrough of that game on his channel.

I’m surprised Crusader of Centy isn’t on here. I had to sell my box copy due to COVID and I got about $1600 for it. I’ve seen the price dropped to about $1300 but still.

Ugh, I remember see8bg steamboat chronicles for around 10 dollars at gamestop. I stared at it for around 10 minutes, but didn't pick it up since I was young and broke. Wasn't until much later that I found out how popular/good it was.

I'm surprised the Demikids GBA games are not on this list

I have a totally legal™️ copy of Rule of Rose and it was worth the hunt, the price I bought it at, and looks nice on the shelf. What drew my attention to it was the fantastic video RagnarRox put out. Really hoping that Onion games can get Chulip and RoR’s rights, because RoR was done so dirty. I think Hard4Games showed off the original n64 version of cubivore, because someone had found a prototype build. Good video, Onion games is really fighting the good fight.

I had no idea Rule of Rose was an atlus title. The more you know, i guess.

So glad i bought a lot of these (like steambot and rule of rose (which i didn't realize was atlus) for cheap in a bargain bin back in the day.

You should dedicate an episode to why Nine flopped so hard while Nocturne succeeded magnificently!

Dokapon kingdom was my first ATLUS game.

As far as North American games published by Atlus: Rule of Rose needs a port to modern consoles. Plsss its unlike any other horror games I’ve played narratively and thematically speaking. Haunting Grounds another great. I have a ps3 Atlus game called Lost Dimension that costed a decent amount last i looked. Nothing crazy but still more than a lot of ps3 games. Also Stella Deus on ps2. I think the funniest Atlus published game i have is Game of Thrones

I remember getting infuriated by the final boss in Wacky Races when I was a kid.

In dokapon kingdom while playing as a girl it's still clear you're trying to court princess penny. You marry the king for appearances and to not rouse public suspicion but that's it.

Fantastic video as always! Great to hear you talking more about Steambot Chronicles - that game doesn't nearly get enough love. By the way, does anyone know what the games at 1:56 and 2:24 are?

Hears puzzle boy: “traumatic flashbacks to nocturne”

I'd rather kill myself than play through that Pyro Jack minigame in Nocturne

I knew Spud’s Adventure looked familiar, since it almost exactly reminded of Jack Bros once I saw it.

I am shocked to see a star rail sponsorship! good for Nyarly!!! I am actually very excited to play it because I love turn based jrpgs and I love genshin

I think I haven't heard anybody talk about Graffiti Kingdom. Seriously, it's a fun game. Check it out. In-depth character creation that allows you to, literally, draw your own characters with its own system. Loved that game as a kid, love it now.

17:11 suddenly, I’m in a rebel taxi video

I'm so happy to see rule of rose get talked about. I managed to find a physical copy with the manual for 50 bucks at a second hand game store. I am still shocked they didn't sell it for more.

@Nyarly Steambot chronicles was a game i found as a kid when it was a demo for another one of my games. I got hooked mostly on its billiards mini game and searched for it at every store until I found it at a gamestore for ab out 80 bucks. Worth it even though I barely play it, seeing it as a collection piece more than a game makes me feel somewhat proud. I am pleased to see it is getting some respect

Nearly just increased the downloads of these rooms online. Chaos Ending.

20:48 loved this show as a kid. My wife calls me Mutlley sometimes as I have the same laugh 😅

And I thought I was goofy for buying Rule of Rose a decade ago at $70. Lmao

It’s so cool that Dokapon Kingdom is now being rereleased on the switch! And with online play!

Oof.. the second you said Puzzle Boy, I got smt3 flashbacks

i saw a Dokapon character & i thought of TRG

Cubivore lodged in the back of my mind because my dad played it in front of me when I was a kid. He doesn't remember it but I sure do.

I heard gene theme from God hand

The 2. Hand Games store I shop at has a physical copy of Rule of Rose, but they also dont want to give the game away for a decent price. It truly is infamous for its rarity.

15:18 Actually, Idea Factory (who's distributing the game in the West because Compile Heart, their largest team, is publishing in Japan) is only charging $50 for the game. In all, way more worth it.

I own Rule of Rose I bought it back when it came out. I enjoyed it. I had no idea it was so expensive now. Thanks for the video.

What about Ogre battle for the snes even though it's not an atlus game but it's infamous there only being 25,000 copies ever published in the US

Two of my favorite games that no one knows Atlus made are magna Carta and tsugunai: atonement. This is a pretty cool analysis

Another flaw I'd like to add from the doka discord for exactly kingdom is the extreme level of unbalance. Defense is straight up a power-crept stat since hp boosting is simply better. The strike button is straight up overpowered since the A.I. doesn't counter often and the strike button's damage includes a combination of your attack, magic, and for some reason speed. This essentially creates a game state where speed and hp are the only usable stats while attack and magic are really bad. A lot of field magic is simply overtuned as well with key examples being: Come Here, blistered feet, shock, Sleepy Time, down, and the Debuff spells. Also some classes are simply overpowered and like you said, completely based on luck. Alchemist and Acrobat are the two most famous ones with acrobat having a 50% chance to revive yourself and Alchemist letting you dupe any item in the game randomly. There is more but the less people who know about the casino, the better.

I'm still kicking myself for finding Rule of Rose a long time ago at a used game store for like $49.99 and not buying it.

I have a mini harmonica with the logo for Irem and Bumpy Trot(The japanese sub-title) on it that I got years ago. I've never played this game, but I looked at the japanese title and was reminded of it. I think I might have got it from a gamestop employee when SKATE. came out, because aside from a shirt, he gave me a bunch on unrelated preorder junk.

I did not expect honkai star rail to sponsor nyarly, not on a million years

4:26 oh i never knew it was rare 😅 I like I had ages ago and never even finished it

i played one 14hr session of dokapon journey on a DS emulator sharing one controller, it was a blast, friendhips were ruined

Which video did he talk about Cubivore in? I think I missed that one. ...I thought Radiant Historia was obscure. Apparently I didn't know anything.

I laugh every time I'm reminded of the Atlus NES Wacky Races game

The whole situation with Rule of Rose pisses me off. I always tried to rent it as a kid because it looked interesting but they never had it in, and now that I can just buy it I have to sell half my soul to afford it. Oh well. Yohohohoooo yohohohooooooo Yohohohoooo yohohohooooooo

STILL GOT MY COPY OF DOKAPON FROM WHEN I WAS A KID LETS GOOO

Can anyone tell me what's the game being shown at 2:05? Nice video Nyarly!

i own all but cubivore and the spuds xD For some reason it hought you were gonna talk about Kuon until i realized that Kuon is fromsoftware not atlus xD

I'm still sad that Steambot Chronicles 2 is cancelled because of the 2011 tohoku earthquake.

I own most of these. Amazing Tater/Spud's Adventure and Wacky Racers are the only ones I don't have.

OH SHIT @ 17:15 it's the RoboTaxi intro music!!!!!!!!!!

Whelp, time to emulate these.

Dokapon Kingdom you still marry the princess even if your a girl. Just so you know

25:00 mother of god i remember playing this when i was younger lol forgot completely until this video tho damnnnnn

Man I miss rule of rose I have the soundtrack but the game was lost to time

Wacky races lol that’s something I never thought would be in Atlus’s library, when are we getting a remake of this atlus?

Man sucks that my copy of Rule of Rose got slightly scratched by my PS2. Though it is weird to know that Sony warehouses still have Rule of Rose. And Dokapon Kingdom, god I got that game from the same warehouse

All i'm hearing is piracy is badass 😂😂😂😂

I own Rule of Rose 🌹 but have yet to play it 😅

one thing i remember of Dokapon kingdom is the AI Cheats.

I still have a long standing beef with my friend because of Dokapon Kingdom

Persona 1 & 2 duology Recognition and re-releases at this rate ;-;

I fucking loved Eternal Poison. Would I recommend it? Nah. I'm mentioning it because the intro of the game was shown in the video. Found out it's not one of the ones actually mentioned in the video.

I have fallen in love with Atlas.

I actually own Rule of Rose. Me and a buddy ran a bet in Def Jam and if I won he'd have to go get me a copy of Rule of Rose (which he did)

More games added to my list. Like it isnt long enough already.

every single european release of an atlus game pre 2012:

Also all these games can be played on emulator right?

Thankfully Dokapon Kingdom is getting ported to Switch this June. 👏🏼

I got really lucky when I wanted to buy dokapon kingdom a couple years ago and found it for €64

Dokuban kingdom is the rpg game of thrones.

This man has played every game in the book
