Battle Arena Toshinden 3 Pt. 4 "Who Else Wants A Taste Of My Whip?"

[hypnoticicedragon]

Shoutout to Toshinden 4 because I can^^

I just realized that I've fallen victim to a type of confirmation bias with regards to video game graphics where I've come to valorize the limitations of older generations of video games because of some games that found the best possible ways to work around those limitations

Like, let's be fair: games like Spyro, Resident Evil 2, and Silent Hill all did amazing things on the PS1, specifically in terms of how they found ways to work around the console's limited ability to render large quantities of textured polygons at steady frame rates, but most games of that era didn't utilize those workarounds and ended up looking like shit. (I mean there is a certain amount of charm to that raw PS1 aesthetic without any technical wizardry but it does look a hell of a lot more dated than the aforementioned games)

We end up remembering the Spyros of each console generation even though it's probably the Battle Arena Toshindens and Tobals and Bubsy 3Ds that were most representative of those console generations by and large.

And like, there surely still are limitations on modern hardware and even though I personally vibe more with distinctive aesthetics over raw fidelity I am 100% sure that right now some artist working on current limitations is using some absolutely amazingly creative workarounds that will be remembered in coming years as peak 2023 graphics in terms of how it worked around the limitations of our time.

I can't read Japanese, but I assume it says, "You're bleeding from the butt now because reasons."

TFW the first waifu of your childhood has practically zero fanarts :’( I know Battle Arena Toshinden 4 isn’t exactly popular, but I used to love this game as a kid, and the minigames (like that one with chibi battles or pinball where you can unlock cute arts of the characters) were cool, too. Miyabi was my favourite, with her mysterious looks, ninja abilities and kickass giant shuriken she throws at enemies. Once again, a quick sketch, so it’s all messy and not too detailed... Sorry ^^’

[lostcyberspace]

What have been your personal highlights during the past console generations, of you can remember?

I think I have a few games for damn near every console I’ve owned that were personal highlights for me.

Super Nintendo

Final Fight (My first ever actual official console video game that I ever played and owned. It’s what truly opened the flood gates when it comes to video games for me and not only will it always hold a special place in my heart for that but it’s just really fun to play.)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tournament Fighters/Turtles In Time (I can’t even begin to sum up how much I enjoyed these TMNT games. Tournament Fighters for me at that time was like the best fighting game ever; what the fuck is even Street Fighter II Turbo? Also, Turtles In Time was like that direct connection to the animated series and I absolutely loved that series so as a TMNT fan these games were so far up my alley.)

Wolverine: Adamantium Rage (That’s always going to be a highlight if for nothing else that lit-ass theme/beat alone)

The Pagemaster (It was the game I got along with Final Fight and while I never did beat that game I really enjoyed the hell out of it. Not to mention the movie is a fucking gem.)

PlayStation

Mega Man Legends (To me that’s always going to be one of the best Mega Man iterations right next to Battle Network. It’s also my first PSOne game. Lemme tell you the level of triggered I am at the fact that it’s on PSN for PS3 along with the sequel which I never got to play but nowhere to be found on PS4. That is an absolute crime and this Mega Man deserves a lot more respect and appreciation.)

Legend of Legaia (That game just caught my attention almost instantly when those commercials started dropping. I just needed it, I needed to play it and I got it and I played it and it felt just as good as I had hoped......but I never made it too far for 2 very specific reasons. 1. Did not have a memory card, could not find a memory card and 2. The damn disc got damaged so I never got to get past the very first chapter and I never got to meet that game’s Brock and Misty. I had such a connection for this game and I never got to truly play it and that shit’s gonna stick with me for fucking ever. Could never manage to find that game again and my PSOne got stolen but that part comes later.)

Battle Arena Toshniden (Now when I say I was addicted to that game best believe I was ADDICTED to that game. A lot of the characters and voice lines of that game is still imprinted in my brain to this day. I played that thing more than any other fighting game around at that time. The characters just looked so cool to me and I loved the whole different set of weapons they came with. I was obsessed.)

PlayStation 2

Max Payne (My first rated M game as well as my first PS2 game in general. There was a level of anxiety that came with playing this game because it felt so down to earth compared to everything else I’ve played before and it was so gritty that the danger was just exuding through the screen. It never occurred to me at the time that I was playing a game that would later be considered as something that revolutionized the genre as well as the industry but damn if it wasn’t making so many impressions on me.)

Grand Theft Auto III/Vice City/San Andreas (The most I can say is those games were just so much fun and felt so freeing to play. I never knew sandbox games could be such a thing and from that point on it was a whole new world. I appreciate that PS4 actually has the ports for them because I’m kinda feeling the urge to go back. GTA III was always my personal most favorite out of the 3.)

Def Jam Vendetta/Fight For NY (Rappers/actors and fighting games. Sounds like a combo that should be absolute trash but damn if they didn’t nail that shit. I would love for them to be on PSN because I need to go back.)

Marvel Nemesis: Rise Of The Imperfects (I absolutely loved the way this game played and I loved the set up to it. It is just sorely underrated in my eyes. It was dark but it was absolutely fun and I appreciated how every character felt to play. Also, those destructive arenas and how wide they’d span was my shit.)

XBOX 360

Basically everything Valve: Portal/Portal 2/Left 4 Dead/Left 4 Dead 2/Team Fortress 2/Half Life 2 (”Whats inside the Orange Box?”. I had absolutely no love for ANYTHING first person shooter related because I NEEDED to see my character on screen. If I couldn’t see my character there was no point BUT that all changed when I played Left 4 Dead. That game drew me in so hard and so fast and what made that even more impressive is I was never about horror games either but now they got me hooked. So I’m out here living my L4D life and then that just perfect commercial starts playing on television. “What’s inside the Orange Box?”. From style to presentation they just nailed the perfect vibe because it immediately caught my attention and then I’m finding out it’s a collection of games that were done by the people who made my one of my most favorite games so I gotta jump it. Needless to say I was not disappointed. I feel in love with everything. What I am disappointed in, however, is Valve feeling as if they’re too good to be on consoles now. I would like to go back to a lot of these worlds but you ain’t gonna catch me burning my PC for it.)

And now I think I will stop here before I end up going on forever which would be very easy for me to do on this subject. So yeah; there are quite a few highlights for me that are just about impossible to forget. I haven’t even gotten to touch on the handhelds. Okay; I’ll touch on 2 very quickly.

Pokemon Blue for GameBoy Color (My first Gameboy and Pokemon game and the circumstances at which I got it makes it a very special memory for me.)

Mega Man: Battle Network for GameBoy Advance (It took 2 of my biggest interests which was Mega Man and the internet and brought them together in what was in my opinion a flawless execution. I love the style, I loved the characters, I loved the story and I loved the music. If I were to ever play a GameBoy game on my television it would be for the Battle Network series.)

Toshinden URA Trivia:

Ron Ron was a brand new character introduced in Battle Arena Toshinden: Ultimate Revenge Attack, alongside Ripper, Replicant and Wolf. She was chief scientist for the “Toshinhei Project” which was being conducted by Interpol. 

What is Toshinden? A game similar to Virtua Fighter and Tekken. Toshinden died out because they released the games in unison. Soon later to be overshadowed by Tekken and Soul Edge. 

Sofia from Toshinden was once the short-lived mascot for PlayStation. 

Toshinden URA is the sequel to Toshinden S.

She created Replicant, a warrior for peace enforcement and anti-terrorist use. When Ron Ron finished creating the prototype, it was stolen by her superior Wolf.

She is Chinese, in battle she throws bombs, uses a stun gun which also seems to be a wand and hammer. When using her weapon to spark fire while shouting out Biri Biri Wand! She is weak and slow in battle, but is also strong if used correctly. Her “Pin Ball” spinning attack is powerful. She’ll jump in the air and throw multiple bombs.

She alongside Ripper was a “Sega Saturn” exclusive and did not appear in the PlayStation sequels. The only PlayStation game she appeared in was Toshinden Card Quest. 

In Toshinden URA she ratios the female playable characters. Ellis, Sofia, Tracy, making four. 

The Toshinden series is defunct. 

The best Toshinden game is the Sega Saturn release URA. Especially Ellis’ new model. Which was only created because the Sega Saturn could not handle her usual detailed costume. But the Sega Saturn costume suits her more, and also makes her match Sofia. 

Toshinden is forgotten today. Nobody remembers it. New gamers have no idea what it is. There will probably never be a remake or remaster. 

War Budokai a Toshinden remake with no connection to the original series was released for the Wii in 2009 and was a Japanese exclusive. The game was said to have flopped. 

The original characters were “elderly” by Toshinden 4, and most of them retired from battle. The only character to appear in Toshinden 4 was Eiji Shinjo.
