I am the leading expert in Billy Hatcher multiplayer… well, I’ve never played the story. Me and my siblings would destroy each other in the versus game mode… to the point that I memorized the individual patterns of the eggs(so as to know what monsters/power up was in each egg) there are like five different types of egg monsters(small & rideable), egg, power ups, hats(w/different ways of controlling and maneuvering the egg), items(such as an item to stop all enemy players in time), and bombs(like an enemy, chasing bomb, and a bomb that hide itself as a random egg) all the elements combine so you and three friends can maneuver somewhat large arenas(we would always choose the “Pirates Bay “because it was the second largest map, that and we would always play four player co-op. This would help with egg spawn, and the amount of eggs in the map plus the rounded shape would allow for most player’s to find each other very quickly.) besides the OG eggs, there were other more rare eggs(imagine like shiny Pokémon) and either a rainbow egg or a special sonic egg(those would include Sega characters, such as sonic and friends, knights, Amigo… ECT) DON’T BE FOOLED these eggs were special, but not worth the extra attention(they were shiny, and the sonic ones were silver, and could be easily recognized. This would almost definitely get you down a LifePoint.) despite the large amount of eggs to choose, they would spawn very evenly so the main strat is to find a monster(hopefully a mount) and attack and k!ll the other players this would do a number of things (one) you would lose your monster(but it would not de spawn if you were fast and could find it, you can “befriended“ it again, but that could also leave it open to be “befriended“ Buy an enemy player…) (two) you would lose your egg power up (three) you can lose your hat(which could also be stolen by another player) and (four) you lose a life obviously(lose them all and you’re out of the game) this would all lead to a stressful and fun situation, where you have a good egg/hat combo and then lose it all to your enemy… most monsters had very similar attacks most of the time the direction and verticality of the attack would change from monster to monster(for the most attack potential, you have a monster and roll an extra egg. That way you can always have an extra hit even if your monster doesn’t hit + running around without an egg is an easy way to get hurt as eggs can be used A number of times as defense before it breaks) some monsters (like mounts) could attack directly Infront of them allowing for both mobility and versatility they were the best most guaranteed way to dispatch of your enemies... (no shiny eggs were mounts) Hats would vary in usefulness (from jumping high, maneuvering around obstacles like sand and water, to the ability to remote control an egg from any distance) the power up were more useful but considerably more rare... (shrink, defensive eggshell, invincibility, invisibility, break all eggs, make players fall asleep, steal items, and freeze time) there was a extra life egg as well as three bomb eggs in their own black and red pattern(heat seeking bomb, camo egg bomb, and throwable bomb) all this and more with environmental hazards, egg jump pads, and the ability to do a egg bash propelling your character forward all this would provide a fun and memorable experience... As a young child me and my family were obsessed with multiplayer games so when i saw that this game had 4 player action gameplay i had to buy it and let me tell you it had it all... the creators of the game didn't have to add this mode in but Billy Hatcher, Mario cart DD, Starfox assault, and Custom Robo, were the only things me and my siblings could talk about!!! the Game Cube was truly the place to be for multiplayer in the early 2000's and I'm extremally glad i got to play this (at the time) under rated classic!!! thank you...💀🤓

​@@LuckyLuna_564 Aight, calm down now. SOME thoughts would suffice. I think it's the most overrated since Jet force Gemini. As in, anyone who likes JFG has plenty of Ratchet and Clank games available to carry that tone. With much better controls. Billy Hatcher is somewhere in the realm of Pikmin and Chibi-robo. Before you ask, I don't join the bandwagons that call ANYTHING well-liked "overrated" after a time, I just call niche games out as deservedly being niche.

@@sboinkthelegday3892 lol I have more then 170 hours in Chibi-Robo I'm the monarch of niche!!! ☝🤓

​@@sboinkthelegday3892I don't think it's overrated because it's so niche? Like people who played it like it but I feel like the majority of people need to know about something for it to be "overrated"😂

I only knew of Billy Hatcher from Sonic and Sega All Stars racing

Theres been a few Billy Hatcher reviews 😅

Nitro Rad and SomeCallMeJohnny made video reviews on it as well some years ago.

THIS

The trailer did say more was coming, so I am sure Hatcher won't be ingored

@@SparkzEntlol they are definitely not going to do anything with billy hatcher

You do realize he says this at the end of the video, right?? Or are you one of those weirdos that posts immediately m

@@harleyjo4875 Yeah, posted that before I made it all the way through. Not immediate, but maybe, like, halfway.

Space Channel 5 need more games too! i mean... they announced a MOVIE of the franchise

OMG me and my siblings would do the exact thing. We only ever went through the story mode so that we could get more maps to play multiplayer in.

lol me but w pokemon coliseum

As well as designs

OK I just saw a preview of the game in Japanese and I just gotta say man it’s up to the people of Japan whatever they feel like ever freaking making a sequel for this game, but that was just so long ago who was ever paying attention

💯👊🏿😎 my guy
