Why Are The Sims 2 Ports So Weird?

Ойындар

Hi everyone!
Thank you so much for the comments, likes and new subscribers from my last vid about The Urbz I appreciate it so much!
I hope you all enjoy this big fat video I made about The Sims 2 ports for the Nintendo DS, Gameboy Advance and the PSP. Took ages to play them all so apologies for the delay in content! Why are they all so different? But I’m so obsessed with the sims atm !
Comment and let me know your thoughts! Lemme know if there are any other games you'd like to see me make a video about? I’m thinking Katamari?

    The Sims 2 DS OST is VERY common background music for my streams. And one time, someone recognised the music, and we just fangirled. It was great. Thank you for covering these! I only played the Sims 2 DS, but it was absolute nightmare fuel for me as a kid, and I still adore the game to this day. I try to play it every now and then but I just... Can't get back into it. I'm not into real time games like I used to be. I don't even play Animal Crossing anymore. So that's a shame. But I still listen to the music A LOT. Like... So much... Might do it now... I love that the composer remastered them all and put it on KZread. Absolute legend there! I also have a tendancy to just... Click on any video that features or is about the game XD Which is good in this case, cos your video was really good and I enjoyed it a lot! Great video!

    I played The Sims 2 on the PSP and absolutely loved it. I made a mission to get all of the secrets (especially from the Dominion guy, since you can't talk to him after a certain point), and I actually got so into it that I replayed it a bunch of times and wrote a letter to EA about it (I was 12, I never sent it lmao). I also played The Sims 2 Pets, and The Sims 2 Castaway (both on the PSP). Castaway is more story driven, but Pets was a complete sandbox, nothing going on. The Goths weren't even in the game, it was weird. I have never seen anyone talk about the Pets game, but I guess it makes sense because there's not much to say about it.

    I came back to the Sims 2 GBA recently because I wanted to see if I could finally figure out the social interactions, and what I learned is that it works on a rate of success, and from there I figured out which social moves to spam (for Friendly, you just use Entertain, because the other ones don't reward you enough for the low rates of success; for Intimidate, Rude Gesture has both a high rate off success, and a high reward, so you only need to get it right a few times; For Romance, just spam Kiss for the same reason). As for minigames, you get skills in the desert area from the guy on the boat who sells skill books. They get expensive, but if you invest early, and get promoted, you'll be loaded by Ep. 4. Bigfoot Love Chickens and Car Commercial are especially lucrative at level 5.

    yeah I feel like the conversations weren't explained properly ! yeah i noticed that by the time i was nearly done with the game that being rude worked better than annoy smh ! so weird tho why do they give you the option to purchase so many options when only a couple have high rates of success? Ah no way I bought some of them books but i guess I should've invested more in my career maybe then i would've actually had some money to play with and paid off optimum alfred no problem!!! I really appreciate this comment though, I'm sure it'll help some poor soul who decides to play the GBA game for the first time!!

The soundtrack for the DS slaps and is something I listen to on the reg, strange day is my alarm tone too lol. I actually played Sims 2 on PC for the first time recently (always strange town obvs) I made Annie Howell, The saloon and moved in Nervous Subject (reunited at last) and gave them a pet Pug named Night Beast. 😂 Thanks for making a video appreciating and recommending the games. I would recommend PSP sims be played on an emulator because on the PSP its verrry slow.

    The sims 2 DS I feel isn’t talked about enough. You’re the third person I’ve seen talking about it while the ps2 version is often spoken about. I own and occasionally play the DS port now that I’m not a child that isn’t frightened by the game. The game is so weird and the sims texts can be so brutal and mean that it makes me laugh. The aliens though are downright frightening. The music is so creepy and as someone on the spectrum, I’m sensitive to abnormal noises or sounds so while the aliens no longer scare me, the music does.

I’ll copy the info here: “It can be found when the Cute Ghost Painting is placed in any room of the hotel. Once placed, the Ghost will emerge. The Cute Ghost Painting is a rare item that only stocks in the store on January 11, 2000 and December 31, 2099.” So if u set ur ds to those dates you can buy the picture! Bigfoot will be in the basement once u have built the secret warehouse! The killer robots aka optimum Alfred and his gang will be a guest in the penthouse once Ava Cadavra has left the hotel. And the time travel is just to speed the game up by changing the time on ur ds, so rooms will get built quicker as it runs on real time! Hope this helps!! You should definitely play this game again you won’t regret!!!
