The ATGames console was an actual officially licensed product. They used to make alot of Sega emulation machines.

Tbh I'd be interested in seeing a modern version of... not exactly World War Blue but something similar to it with something based on how the video game industry right now. With how many companies these days are making micro transactions more prominent in games, I could see the villain being some sort of overly greedy organization charging people for every tiny little thing they do or something. Not to mention with Indie Games becoming alot more popular in recent years, that would make for a perfect underdog protagonist!

I just find it so funny that the Sega/Nintendo bootleg anime has actually Sonic voice actors in, Mike Pollock voices Marcus and Guligi 💀

So they live in 2193 and can't fix the dinosaurs until a machine is made in the year 2097?

The spin dash shooting move in the second game looks very similar to the Homing Shot from Sonic Frontiers

The Genocide City in the actual Simon Wai proto is an empty stage. You showed a fan version from a hack. I love your videos but they're peppered with these tiny details that show a lack of research.

Fun fact, the AtGames consoles were all officially licensed. The Genesis Mini was originally meant to also be done by AtGames. However Sega saw the quality and said forget it bud, we'll just do it ourselves.

From the anime, the character "Miyamoto" you're identifying as Marth...his outfit looks a lot more like Erdrick from the Dragon Quest series, one of the most iconic playable characters of the RPG genre.

23:53 Dang... I get sega is known now a-days for making tails a laughing stock but he didn't deserve to be killed off in episode 1!

Thank you for continuing the bootleg videos, Conner. I'm more of a Mario mark, but this is excellent content.

Honestly, if World War Blue had kept going, I genuinely do think I wouldve watched the whole thing, it just seems like a really fun concept and honestly at this point, other anime like Kill la Kill have just made me immune to nudity. Also, Link saying ''It's dangeroud to go alone, take THIS!'' goes soooo hard

0:44 13:35 15:46 *Actually, it’s just an empty void. Originally, Genocide City was going to be a zone with one act, but was cut and repurposed for act 3 of Metropolis Zone. If it would’ve been in the game, it would’ve been called Cyber City Zone. And Hidden Palace Zone was originally going to be a level that Sonic would be teleported to after getting all of the Chaos Emeralds, and you would’ve had to beat the level to unlock Super Sonic. And Wood Zone was going to be the present version of Casino Night Zone. Apparently, time travel would’ve been in the game, leading to a ton of more zones that were planned to be in the game, but the time travel mechanic ended up being scrapped.* 18:00 *Sonic commits mass genocide in “Sparkster”* 19:22 *Sonic rescues Mario(s) from the Virtual Boy realm* 20:17 *The Rescue of the First Hostage* 20:53 *F u c k* 38:50 *Yeah, it sucks. I t s u c k s M r . B a l l s !*

18:00 this game actually looks a lot like a predecessor to Freedom Planet. Also the moveset of Sonic/Sparkster is pretty much the same as Lilac the Dragon.

27:06 I'm pretty sure Sega and Nintendo put their differences aside to take this down asap.

Sonic 7 and Sonic Blast (Bootleg) literally shaped my childhood. I was REALLY into bootlegs when I was a child. It's fun to see a bunch of Chinese or Taiwanese devs take a game and completely change it into something it isn't. When I hear that absolutely EAR WRENCHING screeching of that Sonic Blast intro, I hear my literal childhood flashing in front of me.

I remember playing that Sonic game for SNES when I had a computer disk that housed an SNES emulator and had a SHIT ton of roms. I didn't know it was a bootleg

Never heard of this anime before, but now I have to watch it.

In that Fighter Sonic bootleg you need to press Up and the Jump button at the same time to jump higher. Also another tip, Mashing B will allow you not only shoot projectiles but also stay in the air while shooting the projectiles, doing this trick helps you advance in the levels pretty easily in the game especially the cloud platform section in the first level that a lot of people have/had trouble with.

World War Blue is, sadly, an example of an awesome concept which fails to live up to its potential in execution, at least as far as the anime goes. Plus, Hyperdimension Neptunia is more-or-less the same concept done right.

Love the content, been watching a long time!

Atgames actually had permission to make these. There home console variant is infamous for having terrible sound and having a bunch of super simple random games thrown in. They feel very bootleg. That's why when the Sega Genesis Mini was coming out people were excited that Sega were not using Atgames anymore. Whatever listing you bought it from was just weird.

The anime could have centered around the two countries and their respective heroes. Also shown that neither are pure evil or walking with Angels, spark up a debate about which side you are on (maybe have it where both sides eventually fight against the playstation nation.

Appreciate the vid dude. Love this

That anime reminds me of the Hyperdimension Neptunia series (which I absolutely love and am a huge fan of 😊💜🖤). Every single game is basically about Sega, Nintendo and Microsoft battling against each other. Only represented by anime girls. Lol. 🤣 I love it!

3:55 Dude, have you not played Sonic Battle for the Game Boy Advance, or even Frontiers? Or at least watched a few minutes of gameplay on KZfaq? Sonic has that very same attack in some form in both games.

26:27 To demonstrate the power of Flex Tape...

If you like the video game parody idea, try neptunia. It's a game series about personifications of game consoles warring against each other. It's also super lewd and fan service heavy, so not sure how you'd feel about that 😅.

You inspired me to try Sparkster because i had never heard of it and I gotta say, its pretty darn awesome! I can't believe I missed it as a child, It's great! Thank you

what kind of sonic 2 simon wai build do you got?? The actual Genocide City in the sonic 2 simon wai build is a blue void that you fall to your death in

I'd actually would love to play a Sonic bootleg where Sonic rides Yoshi. And anyone else noticed the moon between clouds in the genocide zone is an evil eye? But Sonic bootlegs? That's no good

2:50 A "you just walk over it?" moment.

2:30 this made me laugh so hard 😂😂

Genocide City Zone in the video is actually a re-imagining from a ROM hack. In reality, Genocide City Zone (also known as Cyber City Zone) is a Sonic level involving a zone that is more mechanized and advanced, which takes place after Metropolis Zone. Eventually, it was replaced with Metropolis Zone Act 3, making it the only Zone with an act 3 in Sonic 2. Genocide City Zone is scrapped early in development because it's just an empty void that uses Emerald Hill Zone's color palette and Chemical Plant Zone's music. It appeared in the Simon Wai prototype and August 21st, 1992 prototype.

Anybody remember that weird World War Blue episode (might have been an arc) with Marcus and Gear challenging each other to a sports competition?

World War Blue sounds like it could have been really fun show, if it hadn't decided to to waste it's 3 episodes on soft core henti. Haveing 3rd Party chrwcters be like mercenaries or something, actually haveing the representions of Sega and Nintendo chracters right with wild powers based on who they embody. The two Kindgoms fighting, Segua almoat wining the war before the kingdom dissolves,the Dreamcast getting the Battle Ship Yamato treatment (the super weapon that would have won the war had it arrived sooner, bit comeing around when the way battles where fought changed) and Nintedula has to go on to fight some invaders from kingdoms based on Sony and Microsoft. Gear ending up becomeing a mercenary who reluctantly works with Marcus more often than not. I do wonder if the Manga is like that, or if it's pure Sega good/Nintendo bad jokes with random nudity.

im not sure where conner got the info at 15:47 but im very certain the stage never exsisted and would drop you to your death apon loading

Honestly world war blue sounds like a cool concept for a show so i'd totally watch it if it were an actual series, and even then, i might watch the 3 episodes they have at some point -also they made Link hot oh boy-

Anime overview start: 22:08

the atgames thing isn't a bootleg, it is official licensed by sega, it isn't a bootleg and you know it.

Coming out for the Ti-89 graphing calculator in 2023: Sonic Frontiers 9!!! Only at a sweatshop near you

Me and a friend accidentally Stumbled into this bootleg when we were looking for A Sonic 4: Ep 1 rom. We both thought it was probably one of the weirdest things in gaming we'd ever seen. We got it off his emulator and deleted the rom of his phone, so I'm pretty surprised about seeing this game bootleg again.

40:50 I get it's a bootleg console but... This physically hurts to watch him do that...

i havent been to your channel in over 2-3 years WHERE IS THE INTRO 😭

Welcome back 😊

Sonic in Bootleg Sonic Fighters be having that Sonic.EXE smile.

Hey Connor I love the picture of you and Nathaniel!

18:32 I love Sonic's sparky dance

HOLY FUCK I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN SO LONG GOD AM I HAPPY TO FIND THIS CHANNEL AGAIN

Pretty sure you can get custom firmware for that atgames deal and play mame and a cpl other systems.

I literally just saw Sonic for a frame! I literally saw him for a second saying "That's no good!" and I was like "What?". Craziest moment ever.

Atgames has or had a Sega license. Don't know about that device but they've released sanctioned Sega devices

Hey Waffle, just wanted to let you know that the AtGames consoles are actually licensed by Sega, jut figured i'd let ya know in case you weren't aware

I haven’t seen Conner in years

youre the man connor.

With that AT Games genesis, I have the same system lol. You mentioned an sd cart slot that allows you to put any amount of games you want on it... So I tried this and to no surprise, half the games I put on it didn't work lol. So its not really endless

Sparkster was a sequel too. It was Rocket Knight Adventures 2 from the Genesis.

hidden palace was included in sonic 2 remastered and was a stage you would find upon dropping down some pit in the cave section.

41:39 he's very careful with this thing

I think there actually is a creepy pasta game based on the Speedy Gonzalez reskin game. I remember being into Angry German kid videos as a teenager and watched a video with that game.

Did you try jumping from the slightly lower platform in the impossible obstacle one?

Sparkster was actually a psuedo sequel to rocket knight adventures on genisis so it all works out

Hay conner in argentina there is an 500 games in one retro nes and it also has the origin of 7 grand dad the flinstones game

Why I laughed so hard when I heard "Marcus" XD

The at games handheld was an official sega

14:00 Oh boy, misinformation! My _favorite!_

it’s just an empty void. Originally, Genocide City was going to be a zone with one act, but was cut and repurposed for act 3 of Metropolis Zone. If it would’ve been in the game, it would’ve been called Cyber City Zone

I have a sega genesis (not a rip-off one)tho the battery wore out and I have no idea where the thing is.

To be honest, I don't think I was expecting Conner to do a face reveal at the last bootleg.

The music is from rainbow parasol (bubble bobble 2)

It is important to recognize that releasing an unlicensed cartridge which is compatible with Nintendo or SEGA or other consoles is legal. Color Dreams / Wisdom Tree carts are all legal, just unlicensed by Nintendo. The only illegal part would be using trademarked characters or copyrighted code like these bootlegs typically do. But patents do not prevent unlicensed cartridges from being entirely legal as long as you don't copy code or use trademarked characters or other actual game content you don't have the rights to. What I said above is only the case insofar as laws in general actually mean anything, which is debatable.

35:37 wtf ? Atgames is a legit American company that got license from Sega . If a Bootleg was made in America, a person would get birdy cage time , creator of (power joy plug in play), whatever it's called , got 5 years in prison

35:41 At games the only bootleg company my family can trust (With the only thing they screw up is the audio quality) also I own one of their sega genesis with a haunted cartridge that we bought off the internet in a betting war

I really hope Conner goes back to commercials

i love yo vids

Instead of World War Blue, i think I'll stick to PROPER Sonic anime. (The OVA and Sonic X)

5:53 redhotsonic: Not Sure If You Can Call Anything In This Quest An Enhancment, Because The Very First Stage Is... nonononononononononono

I haven’t watched a ConnorTheWaffle Video in years holy shit

Atgames consoles are official

So... How the heck did I find Hidden Palace Zone if it wasn't supposed to be on the legit game? 😳

Fun fact: Sonic 8 is actually called Sonic adventure 8, it was created by Makon soft studios (Yong Yong) made for the GBC in the year 2000.

0:11 Who didn't say/think "I could've done better than that!" concerning Sonic the Hedgehog at this point though? I doubt these games will be anything else than about 40 minutes of "Why?" on repeat though.

Guess I’ll be watching world war blue… dear gawd the garb sounds amazing

Here in Brazil, this bootleg portable console was legally released by Tec-toy.

I thought Mega Man was the one who invented descending platforming.

I bet he has already covered a few of these

If the color palette sucks in the regular Game Boy games you can easily switch it by holding diferent buttons when turning Game Boy Color on. Probably the emulators also have option to change the color palette.

I thought that the character representing link was representing cloud from final fantasy, but I guess he wasn't included as Sony also had final fantasy game,and the creators didn't want to put Sony into this already character pact(if you can call it that) story.

11:49 Old movie Sonic: "oh well..."

7:47 he has something to say

That menu was stolen from the Sega Classic Edition thing that was released ages ago that me and my siblings have. It seems to have all the same games too.

This Nintendo vs Sega anime looks and sounds weird, they should have towd down the weird sex stuff with all the characters, it just turns this show into porn and we did not ask for that.

Every time I see bootlegs like what's been showcased in this vid all I can think is "Who is this for? Little kids? 3rd world nations that don't entirely know about franchises?"

34:28 It's a sh*tty arse Sega Gopher Wireless thing, I had that thing, it broke really fast, which is, well, expectable

What's weird Is that console at the end has multiple games that my old console has It's called a tec toy

I heard you shared a kiss with @AntDude, can you tell us the story of how that went down?

I wish you do more Waffle Pop Quizzes 😊

I hope SonYc comes to life some time!

2:33 Apparently the music seems very 8bit like which is kinda interesting I suppose

I remembered you had 1 million subs dude

*stomach growls* Time to eat some bootleg games!
