Fun fact, many of the glitches are caused by the fact that the game is ran on an emulator. Many of the issues are missing when playing on real hardware, be it Wii or PS2. Rubberbanding still broken tho. Also the 911 GT2 livery is like this only on the Wii port. The PS2 port uses the normal livery.

If I remember, when I was a kid I played the PS2 version and somehow kinda broke the mission where we had to help Carmen by destroying some of the enemy cars. I think it was that the enemy cars wasn't spawn, so somehow I just softlocked the mission (and Carmen just cruising around while me trying to think what should I do lol). But man, that mission really frustrates me (because after the enemy spawn cutscene the game puts my car really far from them, not to mention there are THREE of them)

The Porsche GT2 actually has the proper livery preset on the PS2 version, matches Porsche on the boxart (or basically Rose's GT2 on the main Undercover). Wii version messed up on its livery preset making it use the M3 GTR vinyl for some reason.

I've actually enjoyed quite a lot this game (when I was more of a child...) but yeah, it's pretty broken. Rubberbanding is at stupidly high levels and pretty much stupid police AI. Also my disc was really scratched, so it had issues while loading some zones of the map. Best experience ever 😂

this and the ps2 version are some of my fav games honestly

Btw just realised, the nfs page on the ea site has undercover and the run but not most wanted or underground games.

I discovered NFS on this Wii version. For me, it wasn't that bad. It was a mature game in an ocean of party games, it was appreciable. But years later, when I bought this game on the PC, I didn't recognize anything and I immediately dislike the real game. Years laters, again, I discovered NFS most wanted 2005 and I felt in love of it. I realized that undercover for old gen consoles was entirely based on it.

I grew up playing this game on wii with the motion sensor wheel. Their was this one area of the map that you can jump to the edge of the world over a bridge and make cops crash. It was fun. That and also the physics engine if you had a heavy fast muscle car you could just plow through roadblocks.

I found a Money glitch for the wii: If you play the cop mode twice in a row, the Lancer at he end will spring back to life in the bust freeze frame. You can bust it and it will add to the cash payout

Fun fact, this port of undercover used Carbon engine and Most Wanted 2005 map, just rearranged. That explains why the GT2 has the M3 livery.

You can use that hiding spot, you just need to hug the wall, but i agree 90% of hiding spots are haphazardly or illogicaly put around as afterthought xd Wii was earlier and has couple bugs compared to PS2 version, including Hero livery of M3 not beign replaced by proper texture for 911 GT2. PS2 has that and police van fixed. Wii has much better splitscreen tho as it can be up to 4 players.

Can we have Wii? Mom: we have Wii at home Wii at home: Yuu

Considering that you ran it through an emulator this can bring its own bugs.. also if the original game was capped at 30 fps and you run it at 60 this can also bring issues as well.. i.e. i played breath of the wild and a boss would fly through walls bacause of the uncapped frames. But overall.. i enjoyedthis video alot.

This game is basically a NFS Carbon mod. You can load the Carbon map in this game (and this map in Carbon).

I actually prefered the Wii and PS2 versions of Undercover! Used the Most Wanted and Carbon engine which I loved at the time! 😊👍

The strip club was also in the black box version in the sunset hills town

I heard that undercover PS2/Wii is basically running on carbon engine but with MW05 map

3:04 “The cops in this town are paid to bust street racers, not impatient soccer moms” Sleeper cars go brrrrr

That certain inappropriate building was in the Black Box version too.

This game is pure nostalgia for me, its THE game that got me in to cars, love to see it back 16 years later

I played the PS2 version and I liked it a lot, I did the campaign several times with different cars, while my mom was cleaning my room she dropped the game cover and the support that held the disc was broken so when it fell the disc was damaged, when I bought it another copy (all my PS2 games were pirated lol) the new one had a lot of bugs when rendering the map and sometimes the cutscenes broke completely, all the other copies I bought had the same problems, years later I found out that the game is really broken like that, apparently the person who pirated the NFS Undercover I had played for the first time had fixed most of the bugs

I was really expecting that Porsche to be just a joke but it's official

i remember playing this non stop as a kid, i just ran around in my camaro not doing missions escaping from the police, this game is the goat for me no discussions

I looked up undercover because this game was my life as a younger kid, really wanted the nostalgia of this game on the wii

I remember when I played this game on Wii as a kid, there would be moments where the game would freeze up and it made this extremely irritating noise. This was definitely a sign of the broken state of this version of the game.

6:38 Yeah, this game features the most extreme implementation of rubberbanding I've ever seen. The game seems to make a dome-shaped barrier around your car the rival can't get out of no matter what until it decides it's time to release the throttle thus let you win. Even Criterion's _Most Wanted_ is more subtle, and I'm talking about a game where I've had rival cars slam my butt at easily 500 km/h because I didn't bother to look back to make them pretend fair, and where I've seen cars drive a corner at triple the possible speed, then get into my eyesight, engage their _Disguise Mode_ and fly towards an invisible wall three meters above the road. And yes, I know _Most Wanted_ also does the dome trick, both in All-in and Disguised rubberbanding, but still. Also, the Disguised dome is much broader.

it took me so damn long to realize that porsche at the end of the game has the same design as the m3 from most wanted and i have played nfsu on the wii yearly since 2012 LOL

I haven't seen the video yet But I played this game when it was new and LOVED IT. Everything, music, graphics, story, handling. I was 11 years old

I played this a ton when I was younger before I switched to Xbox, along with the Wii ports of Carbon and The Run.

The PS2 version is the one I played, so seeing the PC version feels like a way different game, but it's cool seeing the Wii version look like the one I'm familiar with. I never knew that the 7th gen consoles were the same as the PC version, and I thought the Wii version was way worse due to previous ports

Has anyone else noticed that the 911 GT2 on the Wii menu has the M3 GTR vinyl?

BROO This was my childhood on the wii playing this game. I never ever remember the names of the old games I used to play but I finally found this one. One of my favourites

editors note: you dont need "the" before "November of 2008" as November is an article in addition to a proper noun. awesome video tho, love ur content

The game was glitchy as all hell, but if you replayed a certain mission after playing the Pursuit Mustang mission several times, you COULD manage to swap out the Mustang model with the Civic Pursuit Cruiser and it was SUPER trippy. I think I still have my save data, I just gotta get my Wii running and get a copy of NFS UC.

Wii and PS2 received mostly the same version, coincidentally these where my last consoles before I invested on a PC. So back in the day I couldn't understand why people said this was a bad game, I really enjoyed it, obviously. EDIT: I don't know if it's the emulation or the version differences, but I have never experienced any of those weird things, other than the excessive rubberbanding.

I've enjoyed playing this game quite a lot on PCSX2 (I actually made it work pretty smoothly) couple of years ago and on PS2 back in the day, and actually enjoyed it a lot. I was shocked at how blatently cheating the AI was (especially being a kid not knowing what rubberband was), and I also don't remember some bugs occuring on original hardware, but those might be my kid's rose colored glasses. Also, I think there is a bug with some cars being purple and also I don't remember that GT2 Porsche looking like that on PS2 version, might be someone at Exient doing a tee-hee moment.

Fun fact, this game loves to crash if you have 2 save files on an actual Wii, like you go to customize section and the game just dies lol

I had the Wii version of this game and I actually loved it. The only thing I hated about it was that when I would put certain body kits on certain cars, it would cause the game to freeze. That was the only thing I didn’t like. Nonetheless, this is an awesome game.

I had this game as a lil kid who didnt know eng back then. And this game was fucking broken. There was a mission where you had to drive a porsche and you couldnt damage it and ALWAYS the end of the mission, when you had to jump over the bridge, mine porsche was getting destroyed and the mission failed EVERY SINGLE TIME. At the end I sold this game.

I legit played more that 100 hours of this game on wii (some years ago), i completed every mission and farmed the police thing until i had money to buy the best cars (i bought most of them)

Wii Prostreet, Undercover, etc all are childhood gold imo

8:01 it was in the normal Undercover too

Really liked the voice over narrative, tied everything nicely together

I loved this game back in the day because I never knew the PS3/X360 versions and I really played it to death. Unfortunately it started crashing when I tried to change the car and came across the Mitsubishi eclipse

First: If I remember correctly, I had hideouts in the middle of a HIGHWAY. Second: HOW on earth didn't I noticed, that the Porsche had the M3 Most Wanted livery?!

Feels like you added 100 modes to MW 2005 😂

It's like taking NFS Carbon and modifying it by adding a new map, new cars, and changing the story. Well, for Wii and PS2 it actually worked.

I played this when I was far too young. Kept on restarting my save file because I wanted to play the opening race with the Lamborghini over and over again. What could’ve been.

Nfs undercover on wii was my childhood from 4-8 year old me

I remember playing the PS2 version so much. I played so much split-screen with my dad,.

3:29 it's like Exient made technology that predated ReShade's reflection preset. 😂

I got a Wii and 1-2 months ago replayed it. Really fun, since it basically is Most Wanted but with wonderful Lensflare. Also on the Wii other than Explosions and Pursuitbrakers no Slow downs whatsoever. Cops though are broken. And not to mention Rubberband in Highway and Outrun. Damn, gona start this up today again. I played a TON of Carbon on the Wii when I was young, had also Hot Pursuit and 100% both multiple times, just like Undercover. The thing with Undercover on the Wii is that it's a fun, different take of Most Wanted in a nicer looking seeting. I just love Lensflare and such. The game gives me massive 2Fast2Furious vibes.

13:40 Edna, the bugged cutscene is actually an issue when you're playing on OpenGL rendered. I noticed this issue today when starting to play NFS Nitro. After changing to Direct11, it works fine

Bully song in the start of the vídeo... Noice

I respect you because Carbon and Prostreet are my favorite racing games for the DS aswell

3:48 idk if i'm tripping here but i remember that the game on Wii was less yellow and had a more natural look to it. The emulated game looks a little different besides the higher resolution, maybe it is something to do with the ISO or the emulator settings The animations are actually bad even running the game on a Wii, but the AI doesn't brake in the middle of a race as shown in the video, and it also doesn't rubberband as much as in 13:29 but it is still a lot of rubberband, after getting stuck they catch up in some 3 seconds Now the beeg thing is that the game is similar to Mario's Missing, where the weaker console has the best version, exactly because the game is more limited

Rubberband is only problem with it. Rest is lack of polish from 6 months development time that Exient had. Game also gets confused and makes you win when ai gets ahead with extreme rubberband sometimes

i remember really enjoying the cop mode even though it's not super well made, it would be fun to have that in new games

The memory is a bit hazy, but I remember you could basically make the wheels domes. Idk why I thought it looked cool but I rocked the dome wheels on my eclipse 😂

It was really just a big Most Wanted mod. Wish they had more time to finish it. DS version of Undercover still has the worst rubberband imo, you either win in 10-20 seconds (if AI hits the traffic at the start and you burn all your Nitro right away) or you lose.

November 2008. My brother bought this game and began playing it in his PS2. Then I saw this kind of HUD, despite knowing that it has the teal-ish HUD. Only years later I learned that the PS2 version is different than the PC version.

the rubber banding and the ' auto pilot' were also broken in the original ps2 NFS most wanted.

This is the version I played. It wasn't a great game by any means but I did enjoy it enough. idr all these glitches though. Wait, 6:39 that one did happen, often. I do remember the hideout placements were a bit off, but not by that much. Then again I didn't use those all that much, much more fun for me to outgun the cops properly.

PS2 port was the best. Sometimes the busted bar fills up and you still don't gets busted leaving room for escape. priceless

i waited so long for u to make this video

This game looks so fun, but my dumb brain also feels like this could have been done better, even after withnessing pure perfection. But in all seriousness, this game looks like a really cool test version where they implemented an older engine on an even older map just to test out the idea for the game, then they realeased it as it is.
