The Skate games are some of the best skating games ever made, but what about the Skate game for the Wii, Skate It? Can it also be a good game, despite being forced to use motion controls? Short answer is... yes! Long answer is... watch the video!

Damn. I didn't even knew that there was Skate for Wii. I mean... I've seen "Skate It" but I never connected the dots, hah. I like how the series never took itself too seriously (even less than THPS), it was refreshing when contrasting with Project 8 or Proving Ground. Big console Skate games were nice toy boxes, but I've realized that... there's nothing wrong about game being level-based instead of having a large open world - I miss it being like that when nowadays nearly every game has a half-assed one of these instead of neatly curated close spaces. GTA3 really did us a number, huh? Still, it's nice that they didn't hall-assed the Wii version. Maybe I should give Wii library a look and start collecting/playing again, haha. What's your favorite skateboarding game? I would go (not counting MGS2:Substance... even if it was based on quite horrible game) with Trasher: Skate or Destroy. Crazy how it was developed around the first THPS game and came quite different. Btw. Love "Nia's response pictures" interludes. Wish I had an artistic talent like that, haha.

My favorite one would probably be the first Underground, because it was the first skating game I really got into. I owned Pro Skater 2 before but as a kid I hated the 2 minute timelimit (nowadays I like it) and just wanted to be able to explore however I want to really, which Underground gave me! (Pro Skater 4 already let you do that too but the Pro Skater name was kinda ruined a that time for me, luckily it wasn't as ruined as it was after the fifth game...) Gave me big levels, a fun story (I hate you Eric), weird fun mission (I kinda liked the driving sections), and has some of my favorite levels. Plus that extra bit of nostalgia. Aside from that it would be Skate 2, and for a more niche pick Bomb Rush Cyberpunk, even if I wouldn't really consider it a true skateboarding game! And yeah, I don't really care if I get an open-world or a stage-based game, as long as it's well designed. The THPS 1+2 remake should show there's still demand for smaller levels that are filled with tons of stuff, so it doesn't always have to be an open-world. Kinda sad that we just never got more remakes or even another original game after it sold so well... And I'm still a bit cautious about Skate 4 but hoping for the best! Everyone can have artistic talent! Everyone starts at zero at first after all! I mostly just scramble to see if I got a fitting one for a certain section in my videos from something I have drawn before, if I had to draw so much new stuff every time for a video I would just pass out from my right hand hurting so much probably!

@@Vanserchan Yeah, I remember how I felt about time limits as a kid myself. It always stressed me a lot (I still know a lot of people who are so averted to time limits that they REFUSE to play any game with that mechanic, even if the time limit is really generous), but now... I see it more as a motivator than anything else. After all, limits force us to be better. Yeah, THPS5 was a BIG shame. I don't know WHAT made them them think that giving the main numbered installment to people who did HORRIBLE THPS HD... I mean, I know that they just wanted to release a game to keep the rights, but... damn. THUG2 Remix for PSP is amazing (even if I don't really like the original THUG2 as it was... too much of a Jackass game than TH) and if you have PSP of your own I HIGHLY advise you to get it. I have no idea what wizardry or how many blood sacrifices they did for it to be as good. ...never thought to see Bomb Rush Cyberfunk being mentioned here. It's REALLY great title, though as you've said: not really a skateboarding game. If you loved it... can I interest you in Jet Set Radio series? BRC is a spiritual successor to it (a REALLY good one, perhaps even better than the original - hope that next JSR will be good, please be good). I'm so sad that they relegated other THPS games to just being level packs for 1+2 (even when the remake was great). Oh well. And hey, I don't know if you played THPS4 for PS1 but it retains the 2:00 minute levels structure. I actually like it better than the PC/new consoles version. I don't really have the patience or manual skills to draw to be honest (which is funny as I like building airplane kits and 50% of my day job consists of hand-cutting very precise slices that can be easily ruined), so that's why I have so much respect to artists. And yeah, I know that you reuse them, BUT I really like that too. Work smarter, not harder, no?

@@Hodyna I still loved Underground 2 because it was perfect during my MTV phase where I just loved to watch all that weird stuff like Jackass, the Bam Margera show, South Park, Drawn Together and other things that were basically our own old versions of brainrot content... I heard good things about that version of it since it also got new extra levels, just never had a PSP back in the day... American Wasteland was also still good but then the franchise fatigue set in and made me wish they would go back to being a bit more grounded or overhauling it completely but Skate ate their cake for that mostly. I played the Jet Set Radio games too actually! Just wish the PC port of it wasn't so borked because something with the saves doesn't quite work and I became a victim of it... So I just emulated the DC version of it. (There's way too many broken ports of old games being sold on Steam without any warnings). And Future works pretty well on an emulator, kinda weird how that's still stuck on the Xbox only. I think accordingly to the leaked Sega stuff they're making a new remake of the first one and also an actual new game, which apparently is gonna lean more into the whole GAAS thing... But hey, hope is the last thing that dies so let's hope for the best! Damn, an airplane kit chad... I always wanted to get a bit into self-made kits like that for figurines. There's a cool Siren set from Xenoblade 2 that you have to assemble yourself but I'm too scared to try and end up breaking something. (And well, it costs a bunch... At least it's pre-colored!)

​@@Vanserchan If you want get into model kits I STRONGLY advise Gunpla. Sure, they are bit on the expensive side, but they are really detailed, there's minimum amount of "permanent ingerention" (like cutting, gluing or having to put decals) and they are precolored. Painting models is something that I REALLY dislike, so it makes them pretty much perfect. Their Amplified Machinedramon is probably my favorite model I've ever put together (or seen for that matter... though I still want to get Kotobukiya's Metal Gear Ray). PS. Hope that these comments will somehow help you get into the algorithm, haha.

@@Hodyna I will look into it eventually when I think I got enough money to spend on such things, and somehow I always think the word gunpla is only used for Gundam even though the world of it is way bigger than just mechas, probably because both just start with gun... The algorithm is a mystery to me and probably always will be, sometimes a video blows up, sometimes it doesn't. That's all fine by me! I just wanna make videos about stuff I wanna talk about and if it performs well it's neat, if it doesn't perform then that's just it, won't keep me from making them!
