Nintendo’s Most Underrated Platformers: The Starfy Games

Ойындар

With only one game localized, it's crazy how few people know about the Legendary Starfy. So to fix that, let's dive into all five of the Starfy games.

    Ironically, starfy's lack of localization and transformation ability were the reason no one i knew as a kid wanted it. Everyone thought it was just a bad attempt at a Kirby clone, since everyone was playing Kirby Superstar Ultra at the time, and had no idea Starfy was already such a long running series. Really wish we hadn't all been a bunch of tiny hipsters and would've just played and enjoyed it lol!

    If I had all the power in the world, I would use it to make Nintendo treat EVERY IP they own equally. Not just Starfy, but also Custom Robo, Sin and Punishment, Fossil Fighters, Chibi-Robo, Nintendo Wars, even REALLY obscure stuff like Slide Adventure MAGKID or Doshin the Giant. Smash Bros. has shown that Nintendo has TONS of IPs just lying there gathering dust, and I'd give anything to see each and every one, or at least 80% or so, be given proper love and treatment.

One 3D Mario, one 2D Mario, one Zelda, one Pokemon, one Starfy, etc. They could also enlist Third Party developers to work on some, like how Mercury Steam and Ubisoft worked on a Metroid and Mario game respectively. They could also just make their studios larger with more employees over time, preferably young employees who may have played these games already, and have fresh ideas for them. They could also re-release the games on the eShop, and judge which ones have more potential by their sales, since giving every single one a fair shot is probably a real impossibility.

    It was the localized Starfy game that introduced me to takoyakis. And it was Konfucious Eats that showed me how to properly eat them, too. Love this game so much.

    Having vainly waited for years for someone to translate these games, it's great to see that at least the first one has finally been tackled. I really hope that the others get the same treatment. Starfy has always held a bit of an exotic fascination for me. If you're still looking for suggestions for future videos, I'd love to see more GBA coverage. The system has a really varied and interesting library.

    It sure damn is. Especially the legendary starfy. Ever since I saw the commercial when I was younger I wanted the game. So much so that my mom knew, and she's doesn't really know anything about games. Then came one day after coming back from early black Friday shopping she gave me the game as a surprise. Needless to say I was ecstatic. I played the crap out of the game. One of the few games I've 100%. It holds a special place in my heart as being one of my childhood games and I still have it with it's original case and everything.

    Finally, it's about time someone talked about these games! I got the fifth game when I was 5 after seeing my cousin play it, and I loved it from the comic book style cutscenes (since I do like to draw comics and manga), soundtrack and the gameplay was quite fun! I thought the story was the best thing before I saw the story of the third game and Moe's backstory which just makes me sad that this series may never come back. There still is one last thing I must mention though... Starfy should be playable in Smash Ultimate rather than an assist trophy, change my mind.

I got the DS game when I was about 5-8 and I played the hell out of it as a kid I still go back to it every now and then. Honestly now knowing about the other games I would have loved to play them too bad they never got localized, here's to hoping someone translates the other games or better yet Nintendo release remakes of the old ones translated. Thanks for the awesome video.

    I remember this game, big time!! It was one of my first ever games, and I remember seeing the bizarre ads on TV with that fisherman before receiving this game and Professor Layton one Christmas. I didn't like the puzzles in Layton and ended up selling it when younger, but I absolutely fell in love with Starfy, and remembering how shocked I was at Moe being such a sweetheart for a hardy character, the cute costume and gacha side content, and the takoyaki and fishing minigames was great! Thanks for telling me how the other games went -- I had no clue there were four more titles, and it was a series!! My favorite character, by the way, was Bunston -- I always loved bunnies, and his story was the only game story to successfully make me cry around that time other than those in the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games I had around the same time. Funnily enough, too, this game is what made me hone my button mashing skills as well for that final Mashtooth battle! I was so proud of myself. Again, thanks for the nostalgia! Played this game to death as a kiddo too, and I still have the cartridge!

    I grew up with The Legendary Starfy on my DS as a kid and loved it to death. a few summers ago I finally picked up the rest and even though I can't read Japanese, My knowledge of the US release means I didn't really need a tutorial and after each game I filled in any blanks by reading up on the wiki story wise. They are such a joy! I even completed the 3rd game to get the good ending. I feel if they remade them as a collection OR remade the whole series in one big long game that it would sell super well if they would just market it right. I always loved the story of the starfy falling down and working his way back home while stopping literal evil. I think Nintendo could easily push the concept of going on an adventure through the sea, sky and space really easy. Also the character interactions are typically full of character and very cute

    I know that we probably won't see Starfy again for a long time in any meaningful way, but I would love to see Starfy be considered an actually relevant franchise. I barely ever see anyone mention the series anywhere nowadays which is really sad considering how high quality these games really are. I'd love to see Nintendo and Tose take a chance and translate/remaster/remake one or more of the Japanese games and give the series a proper second chance.
