How about no.

thanks raid for sponsoring shesez, he needed it.

Raid is a very poor game with some very poor ethics. Look it up.

I'd rather play Zelda 2

Really man. RAID??? Ive seen more or less the script/guidelines they ask for. I know you've said the channel was struggling so I can't fault you but hopefully you will get to a point you won't have to rely on them

Oh no the japanese version does the seizure stuff too. But only the original disk version. The one on switch edited it out.

The switch online version doesn't flash,I agree that quite a few nes games and zelda 2 being really bad for inducing a seizure .. Nintendo removing the most silly of things from games to appease overly religious parents but didn't care if their children have a convulsion fit while being glued to their game while 40cm away from the screen

The flashing is awesome it makes it look dramatic

Yep just put the entire thing in your video too no need for like a warning or anything.

Yeah but Link’s silhouette looks rather suggestive

I would agree if they showed the child without ropes afterward

"I shall free you from the chains of life"

That's probably the idea yeah, but lets be real here: It looks like Link is stabbing the kid. If this was left intact for the cartridge/international releases, you know there'd be hundreds of posts like "remember when Link stabbed a kid" from NES boomers.

@@LonelySpaceDetective or imagine the hordes of soccer moms who saw a headline like "This nintendo game has the player character Link STABBING and KILLING a child!" with only a screenshot for proof. and then taking the consoles away from their kids, hahaha

@@milohdd lmao

Oni is not much different from ogre.

When you say LoZ are you talking about the series, or the first game? Cuz Hinox didn't debut until ALttP.

@@RabblesTheBinx I think they mean just the series in general, since Hinox aren't too uncommon across it.

Did you wipe?

dude same, i'd shut off/reset the game before it could happen

You actually shat yourself out of fear? Man, that's abnormal.

Haha! Oh my.. The movie "The Stuff" got to me as a kid. I honestly didn't know what film I kept recalling some visuals of until I watched the movie on a whim last year. Great film honestly :P My sister had nightmares about Zelda 3 (Link to the Past) for some reason.. she'd watch me play it. Something in it really got to her and do this day she's not even sure exactly what :P

You literally don't know what literally means

I couldn't agree more! :)

Yes!!! This is awesome

This is an awesome idea! Do a Mario game next!

I AGREE!also it’s suprising what is diffrent

GetMadz, do you play Bonk.io??? I feel like I have seen you there before

zelda 1 and 2 on famicom used the famicom disk drive, that's why they have superior sound, llol.

Also there's more expansion chips for the Famicom, like Sunsoft's 5B for Gimmick!, Konami's VRC7 which added 6 FM channels for Lagrange Point, that makes the Famicom sound like a Sega Genesis(MegaDrive), and Nintendo's MMC5 which added 2 pulse channels. Saddly, the American and European NES didn't have support for these kinds of expansions, like the FDS.

@@pichumario8bits568 yeah, there's something like 200 or so games that used it, which sounds like a lot until you see there's about 700 unique NES games alone, nevermind the ones Japan or Europe only saw, liek New Zealand story

@@TemmiePlays We definitely had NewZealand story, it was just called a different name.

@@lancepate nah it was new zealand story - but it was ported ot the nintendo DS in 2007. so my initial point still stands.

he didn't want to do it, but gotta pay the bills

we all understand the grind, & we support Shesez. We can deal with some lame auto-battle RPG for our dude. Just another game. Lol.

I heard it to but i just fast forward a minute or 2 to skip the sponsorship, it really gets annoying when you pay youtube premium to not see ads and yet you get a add in the normal video...

gotta keep the hustle going. :)

I got shitty over how long it was

We need super Mario bros 2

Verified user = free likes

Was thinking this as well, flag or just simply text saying NES / Famicom or something similar

I mean, the Japanese version has the buttons at the bottom of the screen in Japanese. When they're not visible, then there's the flags.

Or since Link is always present (more or less in this video), just check to see if he has a mouth, if he does, it's the international version, if not, it's the Japan release.

@@randomcanadian6298 There's a instance or two, such as the angel sprite where it's not there. He does explain it but if you aren't fully following right away the flag/text would help. It's more of a just a consistency thing to help the viewer.

@@AlexParry95 That is a fair point, but it can be difficult at times to notice it, especially since it's only a few pixels. Might be easier to have a consistent way of showing the version, since this seems like it'll become a series, and not every game will have the same novelty of sprite differences.

Daaaah, spoiler alert!!!

It's just been covered soooo much already..granted, I'll still watch it for sure and I'm sure I'll learn new stuff..

That's actually quite the amusing story; who knew the opinion of a warehouse worker would have such lasting effects :P

If Shesez needs footage of the Lost Levels since I know it’s one of his least favorite games, I’d be glad to help out!

Those will be epic!

I swear I've heard it before yet I've not played Minish Cap.. at least I never finished it.. Hm..

Additionally, it (the original version) can be heard in Mario Maker 2 when you equip Link and go into a regular Battle (the Boss music sounds get replaced).

Should’ve been the pinned comment instead of the copy paste sponsor comment.

@@mr.creeper7802 the pinned comment was most likely part of the agreement with raid

Thank you infomaniac

“Haha youtuber make money bad! No like sponsor! Haha career bad!”

@@shitass7389 I'm all for Shesez getting paid for this. He does an excellent job and deserves it. But it doesn't mean I'm not skipping past it

Me on my twitch: if I ever plug raid, unfollow me 😂

@@jacksondavenport9296 it pays really well and youtubers tend to struggle December and January. I'm all for people getting paid

Raid shadow *skip skip skip*

Tbf, I refuse to play it on principle, but they've helped keep a lot of my favourite youtubers lights on for some time now, ain't gonna complain

@@baalrog887 exactly. I'm not gonna play such a terrible excuse of a game but they pay a lot of youtubers a lot of money.

Yeah, Yoshi eating dolphins in Japan’s SMW doesn’t seem quite as bad now.

I do that usually

Only a bit

That's why in Ocarina they had a child viciously stab the enemies, to make up for it (until Fi put him in a coma)

I still wish it was its own chapter so we could skip it if we wanted.

Japanese battle's better. It's so good it got reused in a later game. The US one didn't.

@@pirategamer6630 I think it mainly got reused a lot over the other one simply because it was in the original Japanese version that the Japanese developers and players of Zelda would remember way more (because there was no “Shindou” version that brought the modified western version back to Japan) Notice how in Smash Bros., if a piece of NES music in the game had a Japanese FDS counterpart, they would always pick the Japanese FDS version?

@@jomaq9233 Nintendo makes changes in Japan on the basis of western countries all the time, it was reused because it was better. It wasn't Japan that did stuff like remove Christian iconography and Link being Christian, it was the western releases which later bled into the Japanese releases. This can be said with most of NoA's changes, but that is a long rant for another day.

It needs to be about 20% cooler.

@@stephenday2342 Have you ever woken up and been like, "Shoot, I need to be 20% more cool?" Don't you understand what it feels like to be 80% cool?

What amaze me, is that the US version is better in alot of ways. I never thought localization of something was actually better. My conspiracy theory is the localization was less translation, and more unofficial patch. Like how there was a new boss: the developers might have gotten more time to actually make a unique boss for that section.

Hey man. I love your pokemon stuff. Looking forward to you doing pokemon gold/silver challenges eventually :)

@@iqwrjwqioprwjriopqrjpqowir I mean, highly probable seeing how there was a time difference of 2 years between the Japanese and the american release.

Definitely one of the best in the whole series.

Been reading TCRF for years now, big fan of studying the details in regional differences, hardware capabilities, bugs/glitches, etc. You can mod your NES pretty simply to gain access to the FDS audio channels - probably my favorite of the differences. OG hardware only!

Fool!!!! You gotta have the attitude "Well excuuuuuse me, Princess"

Lmao

@@PhayzinOut Now I'm confused... Link's voice or Mr. T??

@@not2tired In the cartoon, Link emphasized the "excuse me" part

@@PhayzinOut ...and in everything else, Mr. T emphasized the Fool!!!! part. I clearly recall when both were in their original broadcast run. Good times. High times for both gaming and television.

exactly. it’s really annoying how some ppl are blaming it entirely on “finicky parents”

@@TheHeavenlyBuddy You have to remember, back when the NES came out, Nintendo of America was marketing it under the guise of a family entertainment thing, almost like an interactive VCR. The video game market was in ruins from the Great Video Game Crash, and Nintendo of America had to be careful not to market it as "just another video game console."

same

As he said, ad money is tight this time of year.

Yeah it's kinda sad really he had to rely on a sketchy sponsor to get ahead, I would've expected Keeps or HBO Max or something like that...

Can't blame him. What's great though is how easy it is to skip.

@@crust9889 the video wouldn’t exist or be worse so honestly I fully support it

ya when i saw that i was a bit alarmed cause, you know, obviously bad for epilepsy and there was absolutely no warning

Was gonna comment this too - I don't have epilepsy but it even messes with me a little lmao

I appreciate you Miguel!

I've always thought that Zelda 2 was a great game. I just wish the level ups felt more significant when it comes to magic. The most poweful spell only going down in cost at max level makes sense, but if you look at a magic chart you'll see half the spells max out pretty early, or barely go down.

@@kyuubinaruto17 Yeah, it's flawed, but still a great game. I would have liked to see your max lives increase for every 1-UP you discover, like Zelda 2 redux.

Ah, I see you're a person of culture as well

I can’t believe there are people who dislike it.

@@Superstar5_ I can see it's problems, and it's also a victim of the Classic Nintendo trope of a sequel having almost completely different core gameplay to the original. Between 1 and 2, I'd say 2 is much more of a pain to try to play through blind, and therefore for anyone who tries it I would tell people to feel no shame for following a guide. That said, the combat is actually pretty fun, though hard, the map is at least twice as big as Zelda 1, and across the board they committed to many ambitious decisions that I respect them going for. I understand why it has its reputation as the black sheep Zelda game, but I too hate it when it's simply dismissed as "bad".

Castlevania 3 to Akumajou Densetsu is probably my favorite game to showcase that difference.

Also, I believe the moving water is due to the power of the FDS hardware as well

What about comparing Doki Doki Panic (Famicom Disc System), Super Mario Bros. 2 (NES cart), and Super Mario USA (Famicom Cart)? The NES and Famicom Cart versions had better instrumental voicing and longer tracks that the FDS version desperately needed, similar happened here to TLoZ2.

@@hermtastic Nope, there was a rom hack that restored the animation a few years back, it's purely a quirk of the overworld's design.

Listen to the Metroid ost on FDS and compare with the NES version.

It could've been an oversight of regional differences. It refers to the Japanese version, not the overseas one.

@shesez

Can't believe that Nintendo of america made it so flashy and didn't receive so many complaints about children seizures like the Pokemon Episode in Japan that was then banned

@@benjo2492 The TVs were very different back then so honestly some of these effects looked different or were a lot more/less intense then they appear on modern displays.

@@benjo2492 At least they realized that with the Zelda 2 re-releases. ...They...DID do that on the NSO version right?

Waaaah

Nonody wants that is exaclty why most people who played the game played until lvl 5.

Right double tap intensifies

The "L" on the keyboard works too. And faster.

Install Sponsorblock addon and you never have to do that again.

@@JoseLuizMorenoBettoi How ironic that it’s the L key

It's probably due to the restrictions of sprite colours for the NES/Famicom, they couldn't spare any extra colours for him, so his shield ended up the same colour as his outfit and the sword the same colour as his flesh

Now that you mention it... I can see it too! hehehe :D

I was so sure he let it play for so long because he was gonna say "Sound familiar?" at the end lol

It actually sounds like the Dark Link final boss theme.

I cant believe he didnt mention that.

And for the miniboss theme on Mario Maker 2 when you are Link.

@@shadowthehedgehog3113 yeah, as a recent game, and that's interesting

A little seizure never hurt anybody

Every time you die in zelda II you roll the dice with having a seizure lmfao, I've always hated it

No, KZfaq is not a job. It was never designed for that purpose. If you can't survive with what you get then they need to get a real job. That is how reality works.

🍞🍞🍞

more like just cut the kid.

Maybe those are supposed to be ropes, and the implication is Link is cutting them.

@Lily Ginnish like Justin Y but Moon actually posts good comments

Lmao I hate you

Reminds me of breaking the wooden cage apart with your sword in Twilight Princess. It took me ages to even think of doing that.

I was going t say it. Most Famicom games were released on cartridges (albeit differently shaped than NES carts). Some games, such as the Zelda titles and Metroid, were on the Disk System add-on that was never given a US release.

Aw, ya beat me to it?

I noticed that. I wondered why I'd never heard this rendition of the song before, but I guess you can chalk it up to regional differences. Pretty neat.

I think this music also plays for either a midboss or boss theme of Mario Maker 2 when you have the Link power up.

out of all people i didnt expect jj here lol

@@jamm6_514 I'm not some hermit!

@@JJMcCullough who are you?

@@Boooo he's a conservative Canadian cartoonist. Or at least he was some years ago.

It's better but at the same time worse than the Japanese one.

It genuinely surprises me that it wasn't fixed in these releases. Usually Nintendo is big on that. Heck, these are the same colors as that banned Porygon episode of Pokemon that caused seizures and required them to shut down for a while.

"Television has traditionally been the most common source of seizures in PSE. For people with PSE, it is especially hazardous to view television in a dark room, at close range, or when the television is out of adjustment and is showing a rapidly flickering image (as when the horizontal hold is incorrectly adjusted on analog television sets). *Modern digital* television sets that cannot be maladjusted in this way and which *refresh the image on the screen at very high speed present less of a risk* than older, analog television sets." - Wikipedia "Around 1 in 100 people has epilepsy and of these people, around 3% have photosensitive epilepsy." *"What is unlikely to be a photosensitive trigger?"* "Digital TV and plasma screens. Adjusting the brightness down on some screens can be helpful if you have photosensitive epilepsy." "Modern computer or TV screens do not flicker, or have a very high flicker frequency. Flatscreen monitors, such as laptops, have a liquid crystal display ( LCD) that does not flicker, so are even less likely to trigger seizures." epilepsysociety.org.uk/photosensitive-epilepsy

@@theonlybilge i wouldn't say that just because its "not likely" doesn't mean the same as "Can't happen at all" most seizers themselves aren't fatal but in rare cases they are and its better to have as few as possible and flashing can affect other things as well so might as well be safe and not sorry. You're right but i don't think throwing facts like this out helps people who have had seizures watching youtube before. (approx 2,338,439 worldwide have photosensitivity if i did things right. rare doesn't exactly mean the number of people that has something is "small")

@@GwyndolinOwO I think 3% of 1% of 7 billion is more like 20 000. Also, check out this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gL9hfqhmlZivZ30.htmlm9s

😂

That's a good call, but in this vid it was pretty easy to keep up with, as the Famicon version includes the Button layout in Japanese at the bottom

I noticed there was a flag at some points, which was super helpful when it was there. I agree that it would've been nice to have that everywhere.

Jesus Christ, he should really put a warning there

yeah I dont even have epilepsy and my eyes still hurt. nice one, US Zelda 2
