If you're an athlete, you know the greatest

0:02

motivator of all is the fear of letting

0:04

your teammates down. After all,

0:06

a team is only as good as its weakest link,

0:09

so you owe it to those wearing the same

0:11

jersey as you to be your best every time

0:13

you step on the field. That's why there's no

0:15

vape in team. When you

0:18

vape, you can expose your lungs to

0:20

toxic chemicals that can damage your lungs.

0:22

If you're a step behind, the team's

0:25

a step behind. Brought to

0:27

you by the real cost, and the FDA.

0:31

It is Ryan here and I have a

0:33

question for you. What do you do when

0:35

you win? Like are you a fist pumper,

0:37

a woohooer, a hand clapper, a high fiver?

1:46

I was I was streaming twice a day

1:48

1:50

going to have the energy to do. I

1:52

but fun we're it was kind of a late

2:15

celebration for my daughter's fourth birthday a couple of

2:18

weeks ago so nice yeah how about

2:20

you've told me what the Great Wolf Lodge is what

2:22

is it again it's like a resort

2:24

Disney Disney light but

2:27

it's like like okay well

2:29

it's like a you know it's like a

2:31

water park kind of sort of like

2:33

a small it's the big hotel

2:35

with a small water park and

2:37

like a bunch of other activities yes

2:40

and a bunch of other activities they can nickel and dime

2:42

and do all those

2:44

things with lots lots of

2:47

the prices on things like to get a

2:49

bubble wand it's 25 $30 you know like

2:52

it's Disney prices yeah one of

2:54

those plastic ones that

2:56

you just like will light up and shoot

2:58

bubbles everywhere yeah I mean we've had well

3:00

we've had a couple of them for two

3:02

years so they I mean they last quite

3:05

well which is nice yeah

3:07

it's it's expensive so we do

3:09

it I guess we've done it like once a

3:11

year now so okay that's

3:14

a tradition apparently apparently

3:18

it's becoming that kids

3:20

like it though how

3:23

about you how you been pretty good my

3:25

wife so my wife works at

3:27

a hospital and

3:29

they are knocking down the

3:31

parking garage that she parks

3:34

in so they

3:36

have temporarily moved her parking situation

3:38

to basically the other side of

3:40

town it's

3:43

she works in Hartford Connecticut which is not

3:45

a big city but city and

3:48

it's like it's like 20 minutes

3:50

by car where she's supposed to park now

3:53

and they've set up like this shuttle system

3:55

where she's supposed to like get out of her car

3:58

wait for a shuttle get in the shuttle go it'll work.

4:00

So you know, she's gone

4:02

from a 15 minute commute to

4:04

like 45 minutes to an hour,

4:06

depending on how she hits the shuttle, right?

4:08

Like depending on in with face. So we're

4:10

like, well, you know, you're only 15 minutes

4:12

away. So I'm just gonna start, I'll

4:14

just start driving you right and like, so

4:18

you know, you say 15 minutes, but like, by

4:20

the time you like, you know, get your shit

4:22

together and like walk out of the house, it's

4:24

really like a half an hour each way, right?

4:27

So it's been interesting

4:29

because I have not done morning

4:31

commutes in a decade. Like

4:34

I've been muted in a very long time.

4:36

So it's been interesting to drive in commuter

4:39

traffic. But what's been

4:41

amazing is that it has given us

4:44

like, I don't know,

4:46

an hour a day of just one

4:48

on one time. Nice. Which

4:50

is, I don't know, it's

4:54

been transformative is too,

4:56

like, too strong a

4:58

word. But it's really like, I think

5:00

it's really like improved our relationship in

5:02

like a pretty dramatic way. Because, you

5:04

know, like, you get

5:06

married, kids are like kind

5:08

of the priority. Sometimes you just, it's

5:11

not that you lose connection,

5:13

you just you're sometimes

5:15

you're not prioritizing it. Yeah,

5:17

me and my wife can feel like passing ships,

5:19

you know, like, Hey, how you doing? I'm out

5:21

of here. You're doing this. So

5:23

it's been it's actually been nice.

5:25

So that's been going on, although I've been waking

5:27

up very early in the morning, which has also been good

5:30

because, you know, you

5:32

get a little lazy with waking

5:34

up. Suddenly, suddenly

5:37

it gets later and later in the day. So now

5:39

I have like a hard time. I don't know. It's

5:42

been strange. It's been it's been a it's been a

5:44

fun new experience. Have

5:47

you been going to bed earlier too? Or

5:49

you know, yeah, totally. Yeah. Right. Well,

5:52

grumpy. Yeah, I don't get eight hours of sleep.

5:55

Well, I'm

5:57

supposed to be going to bed earlier too, but man, five

5:59

hours sleep. Apparently is enough for me.

6:01

Oh god. I can't really I'm

6:04

like I'm like Visibly

6:06

angry at the world at five hours of

6:08

sleep. Mmm No, it's

6:10

not good. I just I have a hard time giving

6:12

up my like alone quiet

6:16

Nighttime better always been my like

6:19

Creative time my get stuff done time

6:22

my like creative process is best in

6:24

the evening. I feel like yeah

6:26

I don't know. I don't know if you're like that,

6:29

but I my wife didn't work that I'm more of

6:31

a more person than she is okay, so like I'm

6:33

not like a jump out of bed and get

6:35

right at it kind of guy, but like Once

6:38

I've had a couple cup a couple cup

6:40

of coffee and taking a shower. That's like

6:43

my prime couple cups of coffee Oh, yeah

6:46

minimum Heard

6:49

got it That's

6:51

my prime like creative time like in the morning

6:54

like probably between like 8 a.m. And 1 p.m.

6:56

Mmm Yeah

7:02

I'm probably most productive in the afternoon like

7:04

between 1 and 4 p.m. But I yeah

7:06

the thing that's tough is Like

7:08

when I'm ready to get down to business, it's like, okay Well, I

7:10

gotta go pick up the kids or I gotta you know what I

7:13

mean like totally it has totally messed

7:15

with that so But

7:17

even even before we were married and stuff and

7:20

they've done studies on this like types of personalities

7:22

that stay up late And are more creative

7:24

at night and stuff it often is

7:26

like ADHD ASD

7:28

type folks which I've learned later in

7:31

life that I probably have dealt with

7:33

most of my youth and stuff So

7:35

it makes a lot of sense like when I was designing Graphics

7:38

and logos and stuff. I'd work between midnight

7:40

and 7 a.m. Like every day. Oh, wow

7:43

anyways Learn a

7:45

lot about you know, you learn a lot about yourself as

7:47

you get older you do like that's

7:49

you know They they say I wish I knew what

7:52

I knew that or wish I knew then what I

7:54

know now That's really the stuff I wish right? Like

7:56

I wouldn't go back and change much Because

7:59

like it's the journey that makes you who you

8:01

are and puts you where you're at. But

8:04

it would be nice to manage some mental illness

8:06

a little bit. Yeah,

8:09

just like don't stress too much about this

8:11

anxiety you're feeling. This is this is you.

8:13

This is just how it's gonna be. Yeah,

8:16

right. Totally. So

8:18

we got a wrestling game. I was in

8:20

a wrestling kind of mood. Wrestling.

8:23

Yeah. It's

8:27

kind of wrestling. It's wrestling.

8:29

So my question to you

8:31

is, who is your favorite professional

8:36

wrestler of all time? Look,

8:39

I have never really

8:41

been like into into

8:44

wrestling. Yeah, however, same.

8:46

I do remember, like

8:49

that transformative time. What,

8:51

like early 2000s, you

8:53

know, like watching watching the young rock and

8:55

stuff that show like really brought me back

8:58

to that kind of time. Yeah, like being

9:00

aware of it like it was really

9:02

when they when they turned it more

9:04

into like a Hollywood. It

9:07

felt more Hollywood than than like just

9:09

the storylines. It was more like grand,

9:12

if that makes sense. So like Steve Austin

9:14

and The Rock and Undertaker and

9:16

that whole that that that is the

9:18

wrestling era to me growing

9:21

up because

9:23

that was like my teenage years, you know,

9:25

Dragon Ball Z and WCW. And it was

9:27

like before WWE and all that stuff. It

9:31

was WWF WCW. Right. Yeah.

9:34

So I don't know. My

9:36

favorite wrestler back then. Probably.

9:40

I don't know. Like the

9:43

stone cold rock back

9:45

and forth was always fun to me. But

9:47

I think now as an adult with how

9:50

they've grown as people, as adults, as entertainers,

9:53

like The Rock, like Dwayne Johnson is hard

9:56

to beat. Like just yeah, he's

9:59

even. He even produced

10:01

a show on Drum Corps like

10:04

for a year or two or whatever it

10:06

was like this underground show that nobody

10:08

watched but it's you know it was it was a

10:10

preview it

10:13

was uh what do they call

10:15

that vindicating for for me you know like

10:17

to see somebody like the rock like learn

10:19

what it is and kind of be

10:21

around it and kind of understand what I spent 10

10:24

years of my life dedicated to so I don't know

10:26

I have a lot of respect for him I

10:29

guess yeah that's fair what

10:31

about you I think the rock is a good pick

10:34

uh now I'm gonna

10:36

caveat this by saying I also am

10:38

not a big professional wrestling fan you

10:41

know I have not kept up with who

10:43

is a total piece of shit outside of

10:45

the ring so if I pick

10:48

somebody who turned out to be like

10:50

I'll let you know okay thank you no

10:53

I don't know I know of like a couple but

10:56

I really liked the iron chic

10:59

now the iron chic was like a

11:01

bad guy right back in the

11:03

day and this was when I was

11:05

a little kid and they had

11:07

like they had professional wrestling on

11:10

tv but they also had like a

11:12

saturday morning cartoon and it

11:15

was like hulk hogan jimmy super

11:17

fly snooka the iron

11:19

chic rowdy rowdy piper who I

11:21

also really like jake the snake

11:23

roberts like that era of guys

11:25

I thought were just huge personalities

11:28

and like if you look at their wrestling it's

11:30

not as much fun to watch as certainly as

11:32

it is now I mean professional wrestling is real

11:36

spectacle yeah like

11:38

it's pretty it's really actually I think very

11:40

acrobatic and stuff too now yeah I mean

11:42

it's always been a little bit but more

11:44

now than ever and they're really like doing some

11:46

stunts out there which if you think about like

11:49

the live production of doing these like

11:52

aerial stunts like jumping off of like

11:55

you know these barbed wire cages and stuff

11:57

and landing on tables and stuff it's pretty

11:59

impressive Yeah. They

12:01

weren't doing that when I was a kid. It was really

12:03

like me and Gene Okerlund, like

12:05

interviewing somebody and, you know, him going ape

12:07

on the microphone. That's about all you got.

12:09

But I really, I really liked that era.

12:11

It was kind of just campy and fun.

12:13

And, uh, I don't know, Rodney,

12:16

Rodney Piper, now that I'm thinking about it. Like

12:18

he wasn't, they live. Step

12:21

12:53

18 plus terms and conditions apply. I'm

12:56

changing my answer to Rodney, Rodney. I

13:00

was going to, I was about to, I was going

13:02

to like give you some, you should watch the

13:05

young rock if you haven't, even if you're not a

13:07

wrestling fan. Okay. Um, the

13:09

production and the storytelling of like,

13:11

cause you know, his dad was,

13:13

uh, Rocky or

13:15

Rocky, um, somebody

13:18

rock Rocky. And,

13:20

uh, so it tells

13:22

the story of like

13:24

the Hawaiian wrestling league and how it

13:26

kind of melded together with the WWF

13:29

and young Vince McMahon and

13:31

the relationship of, of

13:33

like the rocks dad and some of that

13:36

drama, like it, it's produced and story told

13:38

by the rocks. So like, it's pretty close

13:40

to reality as far as I know. And

13:43

sheikas in there, like, um, Oh

13:46

my gosh, a lot of, uh, iron

13:49

sheikas in that he was in the, he was like

13:51

in the Hawaiian wrestling league. So they like, oh, he

13:53

was. Yeah. It so yeah, there's

13:55

a lot of that kind of, kind of

14:01

That I don't know. He did have an actor in

14:03

the show, but I don't know how accurate it was. Uh,

14:06

but then also, uh, what do they call not

14:08

the big show, the guy, um, before him that

14:10

was, uh, Andre the giant. Oh yeah.

14:13

And like his relationship with Andre and

14:15

how like wise and kind Andre was

14:17

and stuff like that, like there's

14:19

a lot of like inside stories that I

14:22

found quite interesting, even as a non wrestling

14:24

fan, it was fun to learn and kind

14:26

of see. Cause rock the rock,

14:28

you know, um, Dwayne Johnson, um,

14:31

they call them what do we what's his nickname

14:33

as a kid. And just,

14:35

he's a kid around all these big

14:38

name wrestlers and stuff. And it was just really cool

14:40

to see. That is great. I found it interesting. And

14:43

so you like that era. Yeah. Both like would

14:45

have, would have been like late eighties, early nineties

14:47

era. Wrestling it's, it told quite

14:49

a few stories in that era, which was nice. It's

14:52

fun. All right.

14:54

We got news. Yeah. Puns of

14:56

it. It's right. Let's try to get through fairly

14:59

quickly. Obviously it's been what over a month at

15:01

this point. Oops, six weeks, four weeks.

15:04

Uh, I got

15:06

to remember this stuff that, that I put

15:08

in here a month ago. Uh, Konami is

15:10

bringing back rocket night and sparks, uh, it's

15:12

rocket night slash Parkster same, same,

15:15

uh, series as well as Felix, the cat with limited

15:17

run. I don't know. It might all be sold out

15:19

by now, but, uh, I

15:22

don't know as we've covered both these games,

15:25

actually both fun games. And, uh,

15:27

you know, you can now get updated

15:30

limited run versions. Yeah. I

15:32

think the rocket night adventures

15:34

re sparked was like three

15:36

games on one switch cartridge. Right.

15:40

Yeah. And I think they're doing like, Oh

15:43

no, it's not an updated, not,

15:46

not rehashed. They just have like some like

15:48

newer graphics. It looks like it's like new

15:51

cartoon styling or whatever,

15:53

but it's not actually, okay. Yeah.

15:56

So these are still available January 19th to

15:58

February 18th from. limited

16:00

run on rocket night adventures

16:03

and February 9th to March 10th for Felix

16:06

the cat if you're looking

16:08

for physical copies of

16:11

these games which PS 5 PS

16:13

4 no Xbox yeah

16:15

so you know I

16:18

don't think that's in the news but there has

16:20

been some Xbox news where they

16:22

are canceling I

16:25

believe this is correct correct me if I'm wrong

16:27

they're canceling physical sales

16:29

of video games all together in Europe and

16:34

you know there since that was said

16:36

like there's been rumors they're just gonna

16:39

cancel around the world because

16:41

of the low tickling a matter of time

16:43

yes only and like limited run

16:45

actually came out and said yeah it's been

16:47

really hard working with these guys getting like

16:49

physical stuff done because they're just you know

16:51

it's just not their priority obviously yeah

16:54

you know so

16:56

interesting like Xbox games I think

16:58

pretty limited future as far as

17:00

physical releases get which is a

17:03

bummer to me it

17:06

is and as a collector my brains

17:08

going okay what should

17:10

I be targeting right now like 360 games 360 games

17:13

are starting to get expensive there are like

17:16

I've repicked up blitz the league 2 which was one

17:18

of my favorite 360 games like 70 plus dollars now

17:22

complete Wow the

17:24

need for speed most wanted the 2005 release

17:26

one classic getting

17:28

up is getting up there in price too so

17:31

like and if you're looking at these price chartings

17:33

for like 360 games they're going up quite

17:36

a quite a bit original

17:38

Xbox not as much but like you know

17:40

that was a couple of years ago those

17:42

started spiking but like I don't

17:44

know Xbox one games have never been

17:47

expensive but I mean if

17:49

they're gonna stop making physical games altogether

17:51

I can only imagine like when when

17:53

they stopped making 3ds the like

17:55

the store stuff when they stopped supporting 3ds

17:58

carts and like making carts and stuff Stuff

18:00

just got so expensive so I can only imagine

18:03

You know now's the time if you want to

18:06

pick up like Xbox one Xbox 360 stuff right

18:08

now at the time for sure

18:11

So that's my opinion anyways get

18:14

it walls cheap You gotta pick up

18:16

either of these rocket night adventures or Felix the

18:18

cat. I mean We

18:21

keep going back and forth with this limited-run stuff.

18:23

I have What

18:25

is it is it rocket night? I have

18:27

rocket night complete. I have Felix complete I

18:29

don't need yeah, you know what I mean? I

18:31

don't need these I do want Spark

18:34

stir Spark stirs the expensive

18:36

one on both systems. I would

18:38

like to get those complete like it's To

18:40

get a good condition copy for Genesis It's like

18:43

250 to 400 and then on Super Nintendo It's

18:47

like I don't know 400 to 600 to get a complete inbox I

18:51

have both the carts but like yeah, those are

18:54

those are tough ones. So eventually I'd

18:56

like to get those But

18:58

um, I don't know Felix is

19:00

a I Felix

19:02

was a cool Thing but

19:04

it was like, you know, the cartoon was before my

19:07

time and yeah all that stuff But I don't know.

19:09

I enjoyed these games. How about you? You gonna pick

19:11

them up? I might pick up rocket night You

19:14

know, it's got it's got three games on it rocket night

19:16

adventures Mm-hmm. Spark sir rocket

19:18

night adventures to and sparks there. So

19:21

I don't know We'll see

19:23

it if I'm ordering something from limited run I

19:25

might throw it in my cart Cool

19:29

that it has the Genesis and the SNES versions

19:31

on there. It is cool. Yeah, they're

19:34

different games But

19:36

yeah, I mean it looks it's

19:38

Felix just Felix I

19:40

don't know It

19:44

has the NES and the Game Boy version which are

19:46

slightly different, okay Yeah, that's still

19:48

cool for those that like it Banjo

19:53

Kazooie was

19:55

that a game you enjoyed growing up? No, I really in a little

20:00

But yeah, I mean when that came out and

20:02

it just like, you know stylistic.

20:04

It wasn't my thing Yeah, I

20:06

was a big fan of this cuz I was

20:08

like 12 13 so it was like right in

20:11

my wheelhouse There's a rumor coming out that they're

20:13

coming out with a new banjo kazooie game Okay,

20:16

and there hasn't been a good banjo kazooie

20:18

game since the n64 It's

20:22

like I would argue nuts and

20:24

bolts the best banjo kazooie game

20:26

for the Xbox Well, it's been a

20:28

good episode guys. See you later No,

20:34

I actually never played it all I heard was that

20:36

it was garbage Garbage

20:39

it was pretty fun, but it was a

20:41

wild departure from the band I

20:45

probably was too harsh on it I you know It

20:47

was that era where I actually listened to what other

20:49

people had to say About games and

20:51

I'd watch reviews and I'm like, oh they they rated

20:53

it like a six. I don't think I should play

20:55

it Nowadays, I'm

20:58

like, ah fuck. I'm like, I'll make up

21:00

my own opinion. Yeah I

21:02

mean, I still play destiny and everybody calls it crap. So,

21:04

you know Anyways,

21:10

so it's just a rumor at this

21:12

point or actually it's not a rumor credible

21:14

sources Say that

21:17

there's one in the works. So That's

21:19

great room. That's great news glad to hear it should be

21:21

fun. Hopefully it's good I feel like the

21:24

3d action platformer of that era like that

21:26

that style of game kind of fell out

21:28

of favor for a long time And

21:31

then like I don't know seems to be

21:33

kind of making a comeback like hey Sure,

21:35

there's some interest in this bill if

21:38

they do it in an interesting way Like what

21:40

was it crash bandicoot for was actually quite unique

21:42

and interesting the way that they implemented that so was

21:45

it in play? I

21:47

mean I enjoyed it and If

21:49

they're able to put like a you know Kind

21:51

of a modern spin on it have

21:53

upgradeable stuff yada yada like get get

21:55

the player invested I think it'll go well. Yeah,

21:58

I think people are less interested in playing a

22:00

platformer just for platformer's sake, they need to have

22:02

some kind of like time investment payoff. Those

22:05

games were notorious back in the day

22:07

for being collectathons where it was like

22:09

collect a thousand berries, collect a hundred

22:11

coins, all that 250 stars,

22:14

you know, it's just like, and to

22:16

me, that's really the gameplay leap that

22:18

drove me crazy. It was like the

22:20

fun of exploring and, you know,

22:23

they played for the most part, I thought

22:25

they were played pretty fun, but like, just

22:27

the goal of being just

22:29

to collect these things to

22:31

never, never worked for me. Right.

22:35

Uh, we've talked a lot about our Atari in the

22:37

last year or so. We have. What

22:39

do you talk about with that? Yeah, they're, they're

22:41

releasing the Atari 400. Did

22:45

you even know that there was an

22:47

Atari 400? No, I had no idea. Uh,

22:51

did this come out in the US or was it in

22:53

Europe? I don't think it's out yet. Oh,

22:56

okay. This March, this March. No,

22:59

it's original though. Oh,

23:02

that's a good question. Probably I would assume

23:05

that it was a US also released. Okay.

23:09

It's got a keyboard. It's

23:12

a computer. Yeah,

23:15

it's a computer. Uh,

23:19

1979. Yep. Okay. Yep.

23:22

Yep. Shipped in November of 1979.

23:24

So, you know, I was born in 85. So

23:28

this was quite a bit before my time.

23:30

So it's got 25 games

23:32

built in, most of which from what I've

23:34

heard are available in like Atari,

23:36

2600, 5200, 7,800 form of some sort. Sure.

23:42

And this is also selling for $120. Yeah.

23:47

Does the keyboard work on

23:50

it? Because I would imagine

23:52

that's a little more than something like, you

23:54

know, the NES mini where, you know,

23:56

it's just a box with a raspberry pie in it.

24:00

Good point. Um, I'm

24:02

not sure. But it is small, so I

24:04

wouldn't, I wouldn't bet

24:07

that the keyboard works. It's just for show.

of it next to the joystick and it looks like basically

25:18

twice as wide as like a standard Atari

25:20

joystick. Yeah, it's real small.

25:23

Yeah, it's a mini. I

25:26

don't know. If you're into Atari stuff, there's probably

25:28

something you might like about this. I love

25:31

the beige box look at these

25:33

things. It's something very comfortable. It

25:38

almost looks like it's been purposefully

25:41

miscolored. Like age? Yeah,

25:43

like an SNES, you know how I'm like a

25:46

yellowed SNES? It's kind of like

25:48

this look. But on purpose. Yeah,

25:50

these old beige boxes. I don't know.

25:53

There's something very warm and comforting

25:55

about them. I want

25:57

to know who the mark, you know, who are

25:59

they marketing? towards. Well,

26:03

I imagine most the people that like

26:05

are interested in this already have some sort of

26:08

form factor where they can play those games

26:10

on it. And this is just going to

26:12

be a shelf thing. One person they're marketing

26:14

toward is my wife who knows nothing about

26:16

video games other than her husband likes them.

26:19

So when she's Christmas shopping, and she sees something

26:21

video game related, she'll just buy it. And that's

26:26

why I have like two different

26:28

Atari consoles in the closet unopened

26:30

never used. Oh,

26:32

sorry, flashback and oh, you

26:34

know, so there's that graphic. There's

26:39

also the people who are generally

26:42

genuinely Atari fans. I'm

26:44

sure they don't think they're going to sell a million of these

26:46

things. Yeah. I

26:48

don't know. Like, it's

26:51

just really interesting to me that they're just, it

26:53

just feels like they're releasing everything at this point.

26:56

Yeah. Well, I mean, I

26:59

like what they're doing, though. Like,

27:01

honestly, it's like, it's a lot

27:03

different than 10 years ago when

27:05

Atari was releasing baseball

27:09

hats with Bluetooth speakers in them that

27:11

said Atari on them and the

27:14

Atari Hotel. And, you know,

27:16

it's just like this, at least they know what their

27:19

who's an Atari hotel gamers. Is

27:23

an Atari Hotel? There was one

27:25

in development. I don't know if it

27:27

ever got built. Oh, okay. All right.

27:29

Do you prefer something like this or like

27:32

more media like the

27:35

Atari collection? So

27:39

this one, because I have zero connection to

27:41

the Atari 400, I didn't even know it

27:43

existed before you

27:46

put the guitar. I'm

27:48

going to say I am more into

27:50

the Atari collection. Like, I think that

27:52

Atari collection that came out last year

27:54

was so good because it was

27:56

more than just like a video game collection. It

27:58

was like, A documentary

28:00

about the about Atari in video

28:03

game form like it was just

28:05

right. Oh fantastic. So

28:07

I guess I. I like that,

28:10

but I also I didn't really like that. Was

28:13

the Atari. With the

28:15

Vcs which was basically a Pc in

28:17

his car is a box of our

28:19

job as Hell. So.

28:24

Oh I like or oversaw the school

28:26

at like we're just not the atari

28:28

demographic were to to young would give.

28:30

We would say I'm at about. It

28:36

would. I mean we weren't there for atari

28:38

in a. Preservation.

28:40

Wise, I'm glad that the service coming out on.

28:43

A lot of the suffer coming out with is

28:45

only covering a small percentage of like the available

28:47

games and stuff anyway so it's harder. And

28:50

a harder maybe they can hack and put four

28:52

hundred games on. There are. Probably.

28:55

It does say that article that you could cyber

28:57

games be speak. Layer. Of

29:00

this handheld. Oh

29:07

I guess I skipped a story. Ah,

29:09

Atari is announcing. Are they

29:12

announced that Cs and Atari X?

29:14

my arcade handheld. Which.

29:17

Is going to have. A.

29:19

May remember a seven inch screen.

29:24

Which. Is Huge! Those. Bat.

29:28

And. I. Think. I'm.

29:31

Trying to get my brain back to when I put this

29:33

in her. I'm. Not sure

29:35

game was was gonna be on.

29:37

There are no cafe, where's the

29:39

hardware? Looks really cool and if

29:42

this is affordable. I'm. Definitely

29:44

gonna buy this. Because.

29:46

It just for audio listeners. What

29:48

the thing is, it looks like

29:51

basically a did tender switch. A

29:54

but instead of joy Cons you

29:56

have on the left hand side

29:58

of vertically stack. The pop a

30:00

rotary dob that you could twist for

30:03

games like Arachnid where he he he

30:05

gets with an ab, You have a

30:07

d pad and then under that you

30:09

have a little rollerball. That.

30:11

You could play things like ah

30:14

Centipede with. Which. Is readily

30:16

this Really neat. Like Sonic. One

30:19

of my problems with Atari Games

30:21

Zero. Have rec trawler ever of

30:23

the Republic. even if you have

30:25

regular. it's like it's forty years

30:27

old and doesn't work right? Eye.

30:30

And on the right hand side it's got

30:33

your theater to kind of switch to lay

30:35

out of a be x y buttons. below

30:37

that it's got a number pad like on

30:39

a cellphone. One two three four five six

30:41

seven eight nine, Ten Years Zero. So.

30:44

Like the others games that use that

30:46

so. I don't know like

30:48

this thing I think is cool enough and

30:50

for the few Atari games that I still

30:52

do really like by I do really like

30:54

Centipede. I thought I was a great game.

30:58

And that would be fun to play to discuss that

31:00

little rollerball on it and I to like a wreck

31:02

noise. And that would be fun to

31:04

play to the six capital dial on it which

31:06

I would buy this similar if not like three

31:09

hundred and fifty dollars it with these results. Reasonably.

31:12

Priced out by this? Sure.

31:15

That. Is a good point d m

31:17

the imports definitely. Did. It

31:20

because of it was just like as we know. Normal.

31:22

Control pad or whatever. it wouldn't make any sense

31:24

that it would be like, Well, what? What is

31:27

this any better than just like one of those

31:29

emulation. An ounce that. You. Can get

31:31

like fifty bucks, the fund load everything on.

31:33

yeah. So. Having

31:35

those interesting controls on the definitely makes

31:37

this more of a. Potential

31:40

by yet or in the the packaging

31:42

says case you my outs, he can

31:44

play this on a Tv as well.

31:46

I mean fuck arcade. Perfect controls. couldn't

31:48

buy an old but if they release

31:50

this around one hundred bucks. Even.

31:53

I would say a hundred fifty bucks. I'm I'm

31:55

deathly by. Yeah. I.

31:58

might pick one up for hundred bucks Yeah, I

32:00

think this thing's neat. Thanks

32:06

for your question. Yeah, not

32:08

yet. A

32:10

couple of my favorite games of all time,

32:12

the Golden Sun series, is

32:14

now available on the Switch as

32:16

of a month ago. Breaking

32:20

news! On

32:23

the expansion pack. So if you have the expansion pack

32:25

and you have not played at least

32:28

Golden Sun 1, and

32:30

you like RPGs, do yourself

32:32

a favor. I

32:34

specifically remember, I have this vivid memory of myself

32:36

playing this thing on an SP, like just a

32:39

red one, it wasn't a 101. And

32:42

seeing the graphics on

32:44

this thing, the effects, like when

32:47

you're using your magic powers

32:49

or whatever on bosses and just the way

32:51

that it looked on

32:55

that game, on these games, it was pretty incredible

32:57

back then. So I don't, you know, you're

32:59

probably not gonna get that same kind of feeling now.

33:02

But it was a pretty awesome RPG,

33:06

and it's definitely worth playing.

33:08

I'm still holding out that eventually they'll

33:11

make this like an HD Oh,

33:13

like an HD? Upgrade game. What

33:15

do they call that one? Square does it?

33:17

Live Alive or yeah, like

33:20

the 2D HD? 2D HD? Yeah, something like

33:22

that. Jay,

33:24

you should totally pick this as one of our

33:27

games one One

33:29

episode because I would totally like to

33:31

check this out. I've never played it either. I think it's

33:34

a longer. And they are They're

33:36

always in like a list of best RPGs of all

33:38

time. Yeah. Is

33:40

this the one that had the sensor, the

33:43

light sensor on the cartridge? No,

33:45

that was like a boktai, I think. Oh, okay.

33:48

All right. So this is a 20 to 30 hour game. Uh,

33:51

the first Golden Sun for sure. Yeah,

33:56

but still I'd love to check this out. There's a

33:59

No, it is. I love that they're adding stuff like this

34:02

too. I wonder you know there's been all these

34:04

switch to rumors I wonder if this

34:06

all these games are just gonna transfer right over to the

34:08

switch to if you have the subscription Or

34:10

if they're gonna like should I mean They

34:15

don't Can

34:18

they please learn from their mistakes and not

34:20

do that again Sigh

34:25

More hyperkin stuff. They unveiled a Dutch

34:27

s s Dutch assist

34:30

Controller that will use Hall Effect sticks and

34:32

triggers to prevent drift

34:35

I think this is like a there's a play on

34:37

words because the original Xbox controller is called the Duke.

34:40

It was a big one Hmm. So

34:42

this one's like Dutch. It's the s controller

34:45

that always commonly referred to in

34:47

its in its When

34:50

it was you know concurrent to

34:52

everyday place. This is cool though. I always like this

34:54

controller Yeah, so it

34:56

looks like the s controller from the original Xbox and

34:59

that's got the Like

35:01

Xbox one share button and the menu button

35:03

and stuff put on there But it

35:05

looks very close to the original and

35:07

we got the black and white buttons in the right place,

35:10

right? Yeah But

35:13

if it if it works well and you

35:16

know, I I'd pick it

35:18

up like what games I Halo

35:20

like what games were you playing with this controller?

35:23

Panzer Dragoon or to

35:25

Halo Crimson

35:28

skies, I mean

35:30

what other original Xbox games that

35:32

I play I played a lot of Mechwarrior

35:37

Man I Enjoyed

35:40

my Xbox back in the day.

35:42

Mm-hmm Can't

35:44

anybody right? What was it? No amped.

35:47

Yeah, I love the snowboarding games and

35:49

we are into Yeah,

35:52

this is cool Hall Effect Hall

35:54

Effect sticks so won't wear out. This

35:57

is gonna work with what it's gonna work with It's

36:01

USB, right? So it doesn't work with the

36:03

original Xbox. This is for new. Yeah Does

36:07

it work with the Xbox

36:10

series? I Believe

36:13

so and PC why those

36:15

buttons are on there like share button and menu button

36:17

and stuff. Okay. Yeah. Oh, okay

36:19

Yeah, now I see that Hands

36:23

are dragging this article You

36:27

What it works with well, it says it

36:30

mentions the XS Xbox series

36:32

so all right I

36:35

mean it'd be great for hooking up to

36:37

a PC and emulating the original Xbox. Yeah,

36:39

it's true We

36:41

would have button configuration did change after this

36:43

generation. They lost that that

36:45

black and white button like under the

36:48

A&B button Mmm Cool.

36:51

Nice. Hi, Rakin doing some cool stuff. I like it

36:55

I was just gonna say Panzer Dragoon or test

36:57

another one of those games. It's getting kind of

36:59

expensive So is it I wish I never told

37:01

my copy cuz I've been looking around for a

37:03

copy and I just never see it Yeah,

37:06

I don't think it's sold that well Or

37:10

actually wait, no, maybe I'm

37:13

incorrect it's actually like 30 bucks. Yeah,

37:15

mine's not bad I Really

37:19

like the finest outrun. Oh The

37:22

really one. Yeah, that game is fun. It's like a

37:24

$300 game or something, isn't it? Yeah It's

37:29

expensive. I've not ever played that

37:32

one. It's fun. I've only played

37:34

it emulation You can

37:36

get it on PC PSP for 35

37:40

not the same Or

37:43

you can get it on PlayStation 2 for 50

37:45

which is like, you know, less

37:47

than a quarter of the cost. There you go That's

37:50

probably worth picking up. I didn't know probably Yep,

37:54

so I didn't even realize

37:56

that they're in the making of a Minecraft

37:58

movie But they're... Yeah, that's

38:00

not something I would care about really. But

38:03

they're like putting more

38:06

cast information out there. Okay.

38:08

So Jack Black's gonna be in it. Which

38:10

I feel like he's in every video game movie at this

38:12

point. Like, they're just like, all right, video game movie is

38:14

Jack Black. As

38:18

Steve, like the main character.

38:20

All right. So who's everybody else

38:22

playing? Isn't

38:26

there just like one character in Minecraft? You

38:28

got Jennifer Coolidge. Let's

38:32

see. Do it doesn't say

38:34

what character? Jason Momoa.

38:36

They must be creating characters for this, right? Jason Momoa

38:39

is gonna be in it. Who's he

38:41

playing? It doesn't say.

38:45

Daniel Brooks. A creeper? Yeah,

38:48

probably. Kate McKinnon.

38:54

There is. So there's like

38:56

a whole adventure book series too for

38:58

Minecraft. So it's very possible. Yeah,

39:01

because we've gotten some of those for my son. We've

39:04

been reading through those and there's like characters. There's

39:07

like named characters. They

39:09

have made like Minecraft offshoots too. Like

39:13

Minecraft adventures and stuff. Yeah. Yep.

39:16

Yeah, but Minecraft, like original Minecraft, not a

39:18

whole lot of story. That like works right

39:21

there. Just get

39:24

Jack Black to come in and go. Just

39:28

follow your own. I

39:32

don't know. My son's gonna go ape over

39:34

this movie. So you just enjoy it.

39:36

Just like similar to the original Super

39:38

Mario Brothers movie when it came out.

39:41

We're gonna be happy to just have representation.

39:44

You know, that's not how we

39:46

felt at all. I

39:49

did. I did. You're just a

39:51

hater. Indeed

39:54

sir, I am a hater. Saturn

40:00

fans are currently working on a Saturn mini. I

40:02

don't know they might have it done at this

40:04

point yeah, news was from about a month ago

40:06

and We've

40:10

been talking about Saturn mini stuff like it's second gonna

40:12

release something like this and fans are like You know

40:14

what you mentioned it. We're gonna build it So

40:17

I mean really like what do you what

40:19

are they working on here? Cuz you just

40:21

load a bunch of Saturn games on a

40:24

Raspberry Pi Like

40:26

really I think that the important thing

40:28

here is the plastic Like

40:31

if you don't get that part sure what are you

40:33

doing? I'm

40:35

trying to remember if this is gonna be FPGA. Oh Interesting

40:39

cuz the Saturn is already on the mister.

40:41

Yeah That's

40:44

my Saturn mini I mean

40:48

It's the plastic right like half the

40:50

appeal of those mini consoles just having

40:52

like a mini-vert mini look alike

40:54

isn't it? for sure

40:59

Oh Cool, you know,

41:01

hey, yeah cool. Yeah Are

41:04

they gonna sell it? You have to double

41:06

you got it. I can't yeah, I can't imagine

41:08

they're gonna sell it No, I think it's gonna

41:10

be one of those like you you download the

41:13

kit do it yourself kind of thing. Okay

41:18

We talked about what was it was it the pugeot

41:22

Right. Yeah, where they have the Game Boy. They

41:25

have the Game Boy is the diagnostics

41:27

This is just a small thing somebody

41:29

like hooked a speedometer Into

41:32

their Game Boy and it's basically just like

41:34

an aftermarket speedometer and they cut out the

41:36

Game Boy color screen and mounted the Game

41:38

Boy Color the speedometer as the screen. I

41:40

love It's

41:45

just a shell of a Game Boy

41:47

color a lime green shell with the

41:49

speedometer like just hacked

41:51

inside Better

41:54

than hacked inside Yeah,

41:56

but it doesn't actually use

41:58

any Game Boy parts It would definitely

42:00

be cooler if it actually used the Game Boy screen. It

42:02

would. It would. But, I mean,

42:05

this is a novel idea. I like it.

42:07

I think this is cool. It just

42:09

uses one of those little like phone mounts that grips

42:11

the side. It looks

42:13

pretty jig. But it's cool. I don't

42:15

know. Seems

42:18

like something you would do in your Mustang.

42:21

I still have that? Yeah, I still got the

42:23

Mustang. All right. I

42:25

don't remember. I spent a

42:28

lot of time researching rock lights,

42:30

though, for my Volvo so

42:32

that I can illuminate when we go kayaking. We

42:36

often find ourselves like packing up in the dark. So

42:40

I want to illuminate around the

42:42

Volvo, right? Illuminate around. Not

42:44

the under kit lights that are illegal?

42:48

That's what I want. I want those lights, but I'm going to

42:50

mount them up to the rack so

42:52

they point down around the vehicle.

42:55

A light tent. Yeah, it is. It

42:57

is alarmingly expensive.

43:03

Like you could just do it for 100 bucks,

43:05

but it's going to be, you know, a little

43:07

jank. Or I could do it

43:09

for like $800 and it's going to be pretty cool.

43:11

And I could throw it with my phone and all

43:13

sorts of cool stuff. Just get

43:15

some like some of those like PC LEDs

43:17

that you can control with an app or

43:20

something. That's what. Yeah,

43:22

basically. Right. Why don't

43:24

you just like hang a headlamp from the

43:26

roof rack? I'm like, bing, bing,

43:28

bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing. I'm

43:31

not going to use it while I'm driving. Like,

43:33

you know, like pack up the car and put

43:36

it on a hook or something. Stuff like that. You

43:38

have like a roof rack? Yeah, that's

43:40

where we carry the kayaks. They probably I

43:42

would bet dollars to donuts. They make some

43:44

kind of roof rack light that you can

43:46

hang on with a clip and

43:49

turn it on at some point or probably

43:51

even has an app. I have looked. I

43:53

can't find that. If anybody knows that, I

43:55

would love to hear it, even if it's

43:57

like battery powered, it'd be fine. I

44:00

just like thinking about rack accessories. Mm

44:03

hmm. Mm hmm. Me too. Just

44:06

darn rack accessories. All right. Oh,

44:11

I remember this one. So

44:13

they were remaking the N64

44:15

control stick like

44:17

as close to the

44:19

original as possible. But like in

44:22

a better way so that it doesn't

44:24

wear out. OK, well, that's not as

44:26

close as. Yeah, so

44:29

Rocker Gaming, who's a content

44:31

creator, has been doing this for like a

44:33

year. Uh huh. Has just

44:35

been breaking down. There's like literally a like

44:39

a diagnostic picture of

44:41

like all the little individual pieces. And

44:43

he's like rebuilding it piece by piece,

44:45

but with stronger materials. OK. I

44:48

don't know exactly how they're going to

44:50

release this. I

44:53

don't know, but it's pretty cool to think about rebuilding

44:55

and 64 controllers as close

44:58

to the original as possible, but like not. Nothing

45:01

really replicates that controller. What

45:05

a lot of people are doing is ordering the new

45:07

version for the switch and

45:09

like, oh, like, you

45:11

know, I think it's out. Yeah. But

45:13

I don't know. Those are not that is I've never

45:16

done. Those are not cheap controllers are. No, I think

45:18

they're 50 or 60 dollars. Right. Yeah.

45:20

If you get if you can get them off the website, if you

45:22

get them second hand off eBay, they're

45:24

twice as expensive. They're often out of stock.

45:26

Yeah. Yeah. I've

45:29

tried replacing that with like other things.

45:31

I got the eight bit do one

45:34

that also turns the N64

45:36

into a wireless controller. And it

45:38

works. It doesn't feel right, though.

45:41

And Mario definitely doesn't move correctly

45:43

in in Mario 64. Yeah.

45:48

There were some kind of special sauce in

45:50

this thing that sadly, it just wears out

45:52

because, you know,

45:54

it was one of the most sensitive analog

45:57

sticks ever thick, but it, you know,

45:59

ground itself. death fortunately

46:02

I have a couple of like real

46:04

tight sticks oh yes I

46:06

say small

46:10

and tight

46:13

yeah the next

46:15

video is just silly somebody like

46:17

trained their dog in

46:19

a way to complete the Rob

46:21

the robot version of gyromite yeah

46:24

and so this is it is 32 minutes

46:27

long it's a speed

46:29

run I'd be a

46:31

quick yes

46:33

hell yeah 2024

46:36

and so the dog has two buttons that it

46:38

has to press it's like you

46:40

know big probably 10 by

46:42

10 inch buttons and

46:45

the person just basically tells the dog to press

46:47

with button right whatever cuz

46:49

gyro minds like the sleepwalking guy and you

46:51

have to raise and lower it Rob

46:54

is supposed to help you raise and lower the

46:56

thing right yeah and he's

46:58

got his dog to do it which

47:00

is pretty hilarious he's giving them treats

47:02

to reward him and he tells him

47:04

which one to point at that's awesome

47:06

what a great dog is I would know

47:08

patient like imagine being able to get your

47:10

dog to sit there for 35 minutes yes

47:13

my dog would be no ballistic this is

47:15

a lot of training yeah

47:19

did he beat the game yeah

47:22

awesome 30 year what did it

47:27

take what was the finishing time

47:29

26 minutes 24 and a half

47:31

seconds world record for a dog

47:33

beating gyro weight yep yep

47:35

49:04

Peanut

49:06

Butter.

49:09

God, I'm trying to remember this.

49:11

So an NES style mini PC

49:13

has a built-in four-inch touchscreen. This is

49:16

basically like a, looks like an alarm

49:18

clock almost. It's like

49:20

this little PC with

49:22

a little screen on it that you can use to display

49:25

the time, have an alarm clock, play

49:28

games. I don't know, music, whatever

49:30

you can get on a mini PC on this little thing.

49:33

But it's a really cool looking, really

49:36

expensive, chat key

49:38

device. Yeah. These

49:41

mini PCs are pretty popular with the

49:43

right crowd. This

49:46

is really loosely based on the

49:48

NES though. Like really loose. Gray.

49:52

Yeah. It

49:54

has the flip up thing. Okay.

50:00

I see it. Yeah, yeah, yeah If

50:05

if if you didn't tell me this is based on a

50:07

yes, I don't think I would I like probably

50:09

not It's

50:15

not like that keyboard no I

50:19

don't I don't I would like one. Yeah, I

50:21

do not have one. I have so many keyboards.

50:23

That's my problem I have like playing words on

50:25

keyboards. Yeah, and my kids do too,

50:28

you know It's the first thing a company that

50:30

sponsors you wants to send you is like keyboards

50:32

and heads. Yeah, that's true My

50:38

Smash bro turned 25 whatever a

50:40

month ago. All right Just

50:43

three weeks ago. Happy birthday Original

50:47

Smash bro. Did you play Smash bro as much? I

50:49

did play the original one I thought

50:52

it was pretty fun with like like

50:54

a couple of friends, you know sitting on a couch Yeah,

50:57

who should go to character? I Think

51:00

I like Fox. I also like Samus

51:03

Yeah, Sam was his mind. Yeah, I

51:05

was that annoying guy that just Bombs

51:10

everywhere. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah,

51:13

it's been a long time 25 years for an N64 game

51:17

I Mean

51:26

this game came so far though with ultimate

51:28

like ultimate is like a different beast like

51:30

you can see the how are they? How

51:32

are they gonna top ultimate? Is

51:34

there any way? So

51:36

many characters, I don't know. Yeah They

51:40

got banjo Kazooie in there for God's sakes,

51:42

you know what? They got

51:45

a real chill like real forgiving fan

51:47

base that I think is gonna be

51:49

cool with whatever Smash

51:55

Bros brawl to yeah

52:00

I don't even think, I think the creators are out there

52:02

like, we don't know what to do next. I mean, this

52:04

was ridiculous. It was called ultimate for a reason, you know?

52:06

Like, yeah. This

52:08

is the game that is ending. Speaking

52:13

of ending, 3DS and Wii U online services

52:15

finally get a date of when they're shutting

52:18

down. Like, shutting

52:20

down, shutting down. There are some exceptions,

52:22

like the Pokebank and another

52:24

Pokemon related thing, Pokemon Transfer.

52:27

But like, everything's

52:30

going kaput. So

52:32

the eShop is already down with them?

52:34

Is that right? Yeah, you can't buy

52:36

new stuff. Okay, and... But

52:38

this is like, you can't play online games,

52:40

you can't do anything. Nothing, right? It's all

52:42

gone. Okay, so only single player stuff, not

52:44

internet connection stuff is gonna work on these

52:46

new devices. Dude,

52:51

what are we... Like, eventually that's gonna

52:53

happen to the PlayStation 5 and the

52:55

Switch. What happens

52:57

with the next generation if they just go digital only?

52:59

Like, these games are just gonna get locked forever. Yep.

53:05

All right. This is our future. I

53:08

didn't vote for it. Reaping,

53:11

yeah. I'm

53:14

out here flipping my sidekick open saying we've gone

53:16

too far. Slamming

53:20

my flip phone in anger? Using

53:27

my E9 and... How?

53:31

Click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click,

53:33

dared, click, click, click, click, click, click, click,

53:36

click. You, click, click,

53:38

click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click,

53:40

click, click, click. There was a skill at one point of

53:42

people who could type T9 very quickly, right? Like, you

53:44

were ever there, right? I could do it all right,

53:46

I could do it all right. Oh my God, that's

53:49

a skill you don't need anymore. That's just a good

53:51

price. Put it on my

53:53

resume. Yeah, can type... Bring E9 back.

53:58

Bring it back. Sonic

54:05

X Shadow Generations announced with a video

54:07

trailer. It actually looks pretty cool. I'm

54:11

actually fairly impressed with this. I just

54:13

recently picked up the Shadow,

54:15

the Hedgehog game for the GameCube. And

54:19

I haven't played it yet, but this actually,

54:22

there's like a one minute trailer. And

54:24

the second half of it when they show

54:26

Shadow playing his stuff, it looks really good

54:29

actually. You know, Sonic stuff

54:31

has been hit or miss recently, but

54:33

this actually looks real good. Sonic has

54:35

been hit or miss forever, I think.

54:37

Fair. Fair.

54:42

That's cool, man. Glad to see it. The

54:44

last game got like kind of like a weird

54:46

reception, right? Like some people really liked it. Some

54:48

people really didn't. Oh, Origins?

54:51

Or the, I

54:53

mean, there's Sonic Frontier, there's Sonic Origins. That's

54:56

the one I'm thinking of, Frontier. That was the

54:58

open world 3D Sonic game. Some people said it

55:00

was fun. Yeah, a lot of people really liked

55:02

it and a lot of people really did not

55:04

like it. Speaking

55:08

of Sonic, just quickly, they

55:10

did confirm that Jim Carrey is

55:12

coming back for the third movie. It was kind of

55:14

up in the air, which I'm happy about. There

55:17

is enough money to make Jim Carrey come

55:19

back. Confirmed. Well,

55:22

he was thinking about retiring. Like he's

55:24

been talking about retiring and stuff, which

55:26

I would understand, but I'm pretty

55:29

stoked to have him come back because

55:31

that movie, I don't know.

55:33

Sonic 1 and 2, if you haven't seen

55:35

them and you like the franchise, I think

55:37

they did a pretty good job. So,

55:40

I don't know. Have you seen them yet? I saw the first

55:42

one. I didn't see the second one. No,

55:45

you should watch it. They're both good. Did

55:50

you play much Burnout? I did. I played

55:52

a lot of Burnout. I really like those

55:55

games. They were really fun. They had this

55:57

cool mode called Crash Mode, which was half-driving

55:59

game, half-plus. game where it

56:01

would set up oh yeah the movie or

56:04

something yeah you had to drive your

56:06

car and hit as many other cars

56:08

it causes much carnage and damage calculated

56:11

by dollars paid by

56:13

insurance mm-hmm

56:17

I prefer that version of the game as

56:19

opposed to paradise to be honest paradise is

56:21

really fun too like I really like I

56:23

didn't like the open world open world racing

56:26

stuffs not my thing I didn't like for

56:28

the horizon that's fair but but

56:31

the regular mode to those games like the

56:33

standard racing game we're really fun to you

56:35

one of them I think this is

56:37

on the Xbox 360 had this mode where if

56:40

your opponent had one of those

56:42

little Xbox cameras

56:46

above his TV if you crashed

56:49

him out it would take a

56:51

snapshot using that and send it to you so

56:54

you'd like to see people going like ah

56:56

what's fucker you know do

56:59

drugs on the couch or you know you

57:01

know that was wow place back then that

57:05

was a fun thing though fun

57:10

no my my

57:13

favorite burnout game mode

57:15

is the like the cuz they

57:17

would form they would set it up like it's

57:19

like okay we're shooting this movie we have to

57:21

do this stunt you got one shot you know

57:23

and so you'd have to create as much you'd have to

57:25

do like an assignment like you have to get it over

57:27

this tanker and explode into this

57:29

gas tank you know that kind of stuff

57:32

and I don't know I

57:34

loved that because it was simple to learn

57:37

but hard to master and you could like you

57:39

know kind of compete against your friends and stuff

57:41

yeah yeah it was just chaos dude

57:43

it's just so fun to watch yeah

57:45

like that was my favorite mode it was one of

57:47

those things where yeah like you're saying like if you

57:49

had a couple friends are over like you didn't have

57:51

to be the one controlled in the car to be

57:53

having fun no yeah those

57:56

are good games paradise was fun

57:58

too but it was totally different This

58:03

is an interesting cool thing. I'm

58:05

not huge into hardware stuff, but

58:07

any SNES, there's a mod now

58:10

to fix the blurry output. And

58:13

it just requires a little bit of soldering. So

58:15

this is for the two chip

58:18

Super Nintendo, right? This comes from, is

58:21

it Voltar?

58:24

Same guy who's doing the Wii U stuff. Yeah.

58:30

So if you have, if you have,

58:33

if you've had a one chip, so

58:35

there's, there's two, there's more than two different

58:37

versions of the Super Nintendo, as I understand it. But

58:39

there's two main ones. There's the two chip,

58:42

which is kind of the original Super Nintendo,

58:44

where the, don't

58:47

take my word on this research further if

58:49

you're actually interested in this. But I believe

58:51

the CPU and the graphics processor were two

58:53

separate chips. And then later

58:55

revisions, they combined that into one chip

58:59

and it didn't introduce bugs into some games

59:01

that weren't designed for it. But

59:04

the one chip version, you know, Wilson would

59:06

know all about this. The

59:08

one chip version, you could get much better video

59:10

output on. But the

59:12

two chip version plays is kind of

59:14

like the more accurate version, but the

59:17

video isn't as good. So

59:19

this is great news. I'll

59:22

probably talk to Wilson about doing

59:24

this mod for me. They're

59:27

like, it's simple. It's five wires

59:30

soldered on the board. Great. I wonder

59:32

if it's something I could do myself. Like

59:34

one or two inch chip. There's

59:38

a bunch of pictures in here. It looks very similar,

59:41

like an analog SNES, the way that it's crisp

59:43

like that. Yeah. That's how it

59:45

feels to me, looking at all the pictures

59:47

in the video and stuff. Yeah. Well, you

59:49

would need to plug this into something like

59:51

a retro. Retro tank or something. Yeah. Yeah.

59:53

Yeah. So it's not like it's not

59:55

going to give you like standalone HDMI out. It's

59:57

just going to give you really crisp. video

1:00:00

output than you would put into a scaler. S-video

1:00:04

would still be solid though if you had an S-video

1:00:06

out cable. S-video is still solid.

1:00:10

Versus like an AV cable for sure.

1:00:12

Yeah, for sure. This

1:00:15

is cool. Great news. And

1:00:17

it looks like My

1:00:19

Life in Gaming did like a full review

1:00:21

of it. I

1:00:24

love their videos. It does. It's

1:00:26

not released yet, but they said it's going to be

1:00:28

roughly a hundred bucks for this, which is like, eh,

1:00:31

that's expensive. Yeah. Because you can

1:00:33

pick up a used one ship SNES

1:00:35

for cheaper than that. It's

1:00:38

hard to figure out what you're buying unless you're

1:00:40

buying something like the SNES Jr. though. Sure.

1:00:43

Because there's no clear designation of

1:00:48

which ones are which. Fair. Cool.

1:00:54

Awesome. All right. Well, Llammasters. Oh,

1:00:57

OK. Yeah. Very nice Llammasters. Which

1:01:00

is a big game. Street

1:01:02

Fighter Wrestling. Yeah. Yeah.

1:01:06

It doesn't control like Street Fighter, right? It looks a

1:01:08

little like Street Fighter. Yeah, correct. Yeah.

1:01:11

There's only one button to attack, basically. So

1:01:13

you have to do all

1:01:15

these different like control pad things

1:01:17

to get you to do different

1:01:19

moves. Yeah. Yeah. So there's like

1:01:21

an action button or an attack

1:01:23

button. There's a jump button and

1:01:25

there's a pin button that and

1:01:27

there's special moves similar to Street Fighter,

1:01:29

where you got to do kind of like, you know, you

1:01:32

know, you have to do motions on the D

1:01:35

pad combined with the action button to get it

1:01:37

to do stuff. Man, this

1:01:39

game feels like a wrestling game from

1:01:41

the 90s. It feels kind of sluggish,

1:01:43

kind of imprecise, a little

1:01:45

bit slow. I bet, though, if

1:01:47

you were a kid who had this and

1:01:49

a group of friends sitting on the couch

1:01:51

next to you, the four player mode would

1:01:53

have been chaotic and super fun. Yeah.

1:01:57

I think of a player I didn't find a lot of

1:01:59

joy. Well, and the computer

1:02:02

players are hard. There is

1:02:04

difficulty. I played it. I

1:02:06

played it. I played it at the standard. It

1:02:11

was like four out of 10 or something. There's

1:02:13

like, there's a wide like difficulty

1:02:15

range. I played at the

1:02:17

standard, whatever default difficulty. And after the first

1:02:19

character, like it was, it took me a

1:02:22

few fights to beat each one. Yeah. And

1:02:25

it was difficult. And you had to quite

1:02:28

a bit, you had to kind of

1:02:30

counter like what the enemy skills were

1:02:32

or strengths with something else. Um,

1:02:36

cause sometimes just you were getting overpowered. What

1:02:39

was your favorite character, go to character? I didn't have

1:02:41

a favorite character. They all kind of felt the same

1:02:43

to me. I didn't really get

1:02:45

too deep into this game. I've never been a

1:02:47

professional wrestling fan like we've kind of said earlier.

1:02:50

And these aren't even like real wrestlers are made

1:02:53

up for this game. All the Hagar is in

1:02:55

here. So I'm going to default to like Michael

1:02:57

Hagar. That's

1:02:59

who I started with. And

1:03:02

I beat the first character like that. And then after

1:03:04

that, I really had to kind of move around. There was this

1:03:07

big dude that was like, I don't know, seven

1:03:09

foot six and boy, 400 and some

1:03:12

odd pounds. Can't remember what they call them

1:03:14

like tank or something like that. And

1:03:17

he was able to counter quite

1:03:19

a bit of strength from the opposition, which was

1:03:21

awesome. But he was super like, Peter? No,

1:03:25

I think it was every now. It's

1:03:28

huge. Like you're very tall. And

1:03:30

then there's like the

1:03:32

short, fast, like 160 pound dude who can like, yeah, spin

1:03:35

around and do like all these like

1:03:37

hurricane kick type things. Yeah.

1:03:40

Yeah, I didn't play too much of the

1:03:43

tag play. But

1:03:46

yeah, I think it would have been a lot more fun

1:03:48

with four players to do. Yeah, I can totally see having

1:03:50

like your friends over. And

1:03:52

even now, it's not like having this up, having

1:03:55

a couple of beers and just having this with a couple of friends.

1:03:57

I bet it'd be fun as hell. Not

1:04:00

a whole lot like a story going on

1:04:02

that I could yeah find like as far

1:04:04

as like single-player offering it felt pretty weak

1:04:07

Yeah, I do wish

1:04:10

we had the Japan name for this

1:04:12

that was called muscle bomber the body

1:04:14

explosion. Yeah. Yeah, frankly It

1:04:21

did turn as a arcade game from

1:04:23

Capcom the CP system Yeah, I remember

1:04:25

seeing this in the arcades like

1:04:27

it came out after Street Fighter, right? That

1:04:30

I don't know I Thought

1:04:34

after I saw Street Fighter. Yeah,

1:04:37

I'm looking for a year on the box. Don't you went 91 91

1:04:42

So around the same time. Yeah

1:04:45

It's probably why it felt like the character select

1:04:47

screen is straight straight out of Street Fighter It

1:04:50

feels like and then yeah, there's not very many

1:04:52

left. There's like there's no levels like it's all

1:04:54

one thing. Yeah It

1:04:57

just feels like you're doing the same thing It

1:05:00

is cool that each fighter has their own

1:05:02

like intro song and entrance type thing, which

1:05:04

is kind of neat Yeah, that's the wrestling

1:05:06

stuff, right? And I think it's a wrestling

1:05:09

stuff pretty right if either one

1:05:11

of us were like big wrestling fans I think we probably

1:05:13

like this game more right true I

1:05:16

did find out that the art was

1:05:18

made by the manga artist Tetsuo

1:05:20

Hara Who's famous for the fist

1:05:23

of the North Star and once

1:05:25

I read that I was

1:05:27

like, oh, yeah I could totally see that

1:05:29

art style now like in all over this

1:05:31

game. Like it really Has

1:05:33

like a strong influence by by that artist.

1:05:36

Like it's it's pretty incredible. The art I

1:05:38

think it's fantastic. Looks great. Mm-hmm

1:05:42

Yep Some of

1:05:44

the other stuff to the in Japan

1:05:46

the main character trained under Hagar But

1:05:49

in the US they had changed that story Also

1:05:52

gun lock which is one of the characters like

1:05:54

a blonde dude. He wears a bomber jacket very

1:05:56

similar to guile It's supposed to

1:05:58

apparently be street fighter or Giles

1:06:01

brother from Street Fighter the

1:06:03

movie kind of hinted

1:06:06

excuse me the movie the game Street

1:06:08

Fighter the movie the game hinted at the

1:06:10

fact that Gunlock was Giles brother however this

1:06:12

fact is not canon it

1:06:14

was never mentioned in any

1:06:17

Japan like version of this

1:06:19

game at all Street Fighter the movie the

1:06:21

game the history of the

1:06:23

making of that game is actually hilarious

1:06:26

because this is the

1:06:29

story I heard about this game right is that the

1:06:32

people who made this I think of their the

1:06:34

name of the studio is intelligent designs they're the

1:06:36

people who make golden tea if you ever seen

1:06:38

golden tea in a bar they're the

1:06:40

same people they

1:06:43

went to the set to

1:06:45

motion cap the actors because this was supposed to

1:06:47

be like a Street Fighter game with like

1:06:50

motion capture like digitized

1:06:52

actors like moral like Jean Claude and all that

1:06:55

and the head of Capcom like the CEO

1:06:58

of Capcom came to the set he wanted

1:07:00

to see and he was bragging about how

1:07:02

much money they make off of the games

1:07:06

so the the actors hear this

1:07:08

brag bragging from Capcom and then

1:07:10

they're like supposed to go and

1:07:12

do this motion capture for a

1:07:14

video game like no we want more money you

1:07:16

make all this money yeah yeah

1:07:21

so it was real hard development cycle for that poor

1:07:24

game thanks

1:07:27

CEO guy yeah not related to

1:07:29

Saturday Night Slam Masters hey

1:07:34

guys daughter also makes an appearance did you notice that

1:07:36

when you played as hey Gar if you won I

1:07:38

did he came out she came out

1:07:40

and he like picks her up on his shoulder she

1:07:42

gives him a kiss on the cheek nice yeah

1:07:44

so I thought that was kind of fun the

1:07:48

Genesis and SNES versions had a couple of different

1:07:50

things there was more playable

1:07:52

characters in the Genesis version but

1:07:54

Genesis didn't have the tag team

1:07:57

like Battle Royale no it just had

1:07:59

a Deathmatch which I was

1:08:01

like that's why like like

1:08:03

the best part of the game. Yeah What's

1:08:07

that mode like I didn't play that I

1:08:09

don't know The

1:08:13

SNES version did get better reviews probably because

1:08:15

of that and The

1:08:17

only sequels to this game were in

1:08:19

the arcade. There's no console sequels. Yes

1:08:23

This game are more popular in Japan, right?

1:08:27

Potentially, I don't know for sure There

1:08:31

were some Street Fighter characters that make

1:08:33

appearance in the crowd. I think like

1:08:36

Chun-Li potentially guile,

1:08:38

I think make appearances in crowd and You

1:08:42

can also get this on the Capcom

1:08:44

arcade stadium to or a

1:08:46

dollar ninety-nine on the switch dude that You

1:08:50

can get this game That has ended

1:08:52

up being a pretty good deal for people

1:08:54

who like these games like Capcom games is

1:08:56

they they put that stuff up? They're pretty

1:08:58

cheap. Yeah, I wonder if they're ever gonna

1:09:00

do a physical copy of like a collection

1:09:02

of the arcade stadium stuff Or

1:09:05

there's a ton of games on there though. There's a ton

1:09:07

of games and they're like

1:09:09

all like a dollar ninety-nine stuff like that Yeah,

1:09:14

they could probably make those into multiple

1:09:16

collections collection volume one collection volume two,

1:09:18

yeah That's

1:09:22

pretty much all I had for facts that's all I

1:09:24

could find yeah, I Don't

1:09:27

know cool game if you're a wrestling guy if you're

1:09:29

not into wrestling I think it's a good-looking game for

1:09:31

sure and something maybe they're

1:09:33

like just like check out the art because the

1:09:35

art is really good and My

1:09:37

tag ours in it and he's never been a

1:09:40

Street Fighter game It'd be

1:09:42

nice to see him come to a Street Fighter game This

1:09:45

is as close as he got I feel like If

1:09:49

you can play this game for player or even

1:09:51

two player potentially like it has a lot of

1:09:55

Legs I feel like but single players

1:09:57

not really the thing to do. Yeah,

1:09:59

also the names of the characters

1:10:01

pretty great. There's

1:10:03

Biff Slamkovich from Russia, Gunlock,

1:10:06

the great Oni, Alexander the

1:10:08

Greater, Titanic

1:10:12

Tim. That's who it was,

1:10:14

it was Titanic. That was the big dude. King

1:10:17

Ross the Man, Jumbo

1:10:20

Flapjack. He

1:10:24

was in Muscle Bomber Duo. Pretty

1:10:28

good stuff, I like it. Sorry,

1:10:32

I got screaming children. Yeah, it's okay. Don't

1:10:36

wear themselves out, don't worry about it. The door

1:10:39

opened to let the dog out. At the precise

1:10:41

moment, my son decided to yellow my daughter. Yeah.

1:10:46

Next week, I'm going to pick out the game

1:10:48

for next week, and this is something, this is

1:10:50

going to kind of put us right into pickups,

1:10:53

because I recently just got a copy, but

1:10:56

I'm going to go with Glalancer for the Genesis. How

1:11:01

do you spell that? G-L-E-Y,

1:11:04

Glalancer. L-A-N-C-E-R?

1:11:07

Yeah. I've never heard of it. I

1:11:10

just got a reproduction copy from Retro-Bit in

1:11:12

the mail. Is it a

1:11:14

shmup? Yeah, it's a shmup. But it's got

1:11:16

a story and everything. Check that out, it's got like a

1:11:19

red cartridge. Isn't that neat? Yeah,

1:11:21

it's like, yeah, it's sparkly. Yeah, it's sparkly.

1:11:24

It's kind of neat. Is that a... Is

1:11:27

it a... Is it a US cape?

1:11:30

This is a Retro-Bit reprint. Okay,

1:11:34

so it only came out in Japan on the Mega Drive. Okay.

1:11:38

I just looked it up. And it's... The

1:11:40

cart's $85. Mm-hmm. Well,

1:11:43

no, actually, it's probably more than that. Yeah,

1:11:47

no, it's north of $100 cart. Completed

1:11:50

box is north of $500. Yeah.

1:11:53

So... Well,

1:12:00

I will be re-pro. I

1:12:02

will be playing it digitally.

1:12:05

Yeah, put it on your pocket. Can

1:12:08

you get this anywhere else, like a

1:12:10

collection or something? Oh, I don't know.

1:12:13

That's a good question. This

1:12:15

was a long

1:12:18

time viewers of the show will remember

1:12:20

last year I was very sick before

1:12:22

Christmas. And when I

1:12:24

came out of my week long fever,

1:12:27

I had ordered a ton of

1:12:31

retro stuff. That stuff is still getting

1:12:33

delivered. Oh,

1:12:36

geez. Yeah, OK. This was one of

1:12:38

those. So I

1:12:40

found it. $6.99 on Switch, PS4, and PS5.

1:12:46

Nice, perfect. Digital stores. Nice.

1:12:49

Or at Xbox, apparently. I played a little bit

1:12:51

of this. It's pretty fun.

1:12:53

It's got a really cool story. Kind

1:12:57

of like that 90s animation, like

1:12:59

that Japanese animation that everybody loves

1:13:01

so much. This

1:13:03

is pretty neat. I'm looking forward to playing

1:13:05

it. I'm looking forward to digging into

1:13:07

it. I'm

1:13:09

going to continue with my pickups. I

1:13:12

also got Sol

1:13:14

Dease. Excuse me.

1:13:19

Is that an actual Genesis game? This

1:13:21

is an actual Genesis game. It's another

1:13:23

of the retro reprints. That's

1:13:27

a US Genesis game. I've

1:13:29

never heard of that. Yeah. This one's

1:13:32

kind of neat because the plastic has

1:13:35

stars in it. Can you see that? Oh, yeah. You

1:13:37

like your sparkly shmups. Yeah.

1:13:41

I've been big into shmups. But

1:13:44

yeah, I ordered a bunch of stuff when I was

1:13:47

sick. And some of that stuff has

1:13:50

taken more than a year to get here. Yeah.

1:13:56

I also got something from Limited Run. This

1:13:58

is the Konami arcade. arcade classics

1:14:00

collection. Like Gradius? This

1:14:03

has got a bunch of games on it. It's

1:14:05

got Life Force or Salamander, Typhoon,

1:14:09

Nemesis, which is Gradius. The

1:14:12

cover is Gradius, look. Yeah,

1:14:14

Vulcan Venture, Haunted

1:14:16

Castle, which is a Castlevania

1:14:22

game that was arcade only. Not

1:14:24

well loved. Thunder Cross,

1:14:26

Scramble, and Twidby. So there's eight games

1:14:28

on here. All of them are

1:14:30

the arcade versions of the games. I haven't

1:14:33

even opened it yet. It just came the other day. I'm

1:14:36

looking forward to, you know, playing

1:14:38

with it. This

1:14:41

one's not really that retro, but it's

1:14:43

Jamestown. It's another shooter. It's

1:14:46

kind of fun. It's

1:14:48

like a retelling of the story of Jamestown,

1:14:51

the founding of Jamestown.

1:14:54

But on Mars and with

1:14:56

spaceships shooting each other. And

1:14:59

then this

1:15:01

one is

1:15:03

Dodonpachi Dayaju. This

1:15:07

is another of the cave shooters that

1:15:09

came out. I remember seeing, did we

1:15:11

cover that? I remember seeing that. I

1:15:13

covered it when

1:15:16

it got announced. Yeah, I finally got

1:15:18

a copy from Playasia. It hasn't released

1:15:22

in an English version yet. I'm hoping that Limited Run

1:15:24

picks this one up and they translate it. Because

1:15:26

a lot of the menus and stuff are

1:15:29

in Japanese. And I have to point my

1:15:31

phone with a cool translate to get

1:15:33

it to play. But once you're

1:15:35

actually playing the game, it doesn't really matter. It's fun

1:15:37

as hell. It's a really fun game. So

1:15:40

I've been really enjoying that. That's it for me. Oh

1:15:42

wait, one more. I'm sorry. This

1:15:44

one was super disappointing, actually. The

1:15:47

history of Sunsoft finally

1:15:49

came. I was expecting

1:15:51

this book to be way bigger. It's

1:15:54

like 20 pages. Enjoy. It's thick

1:15:56

enough, but it's like the size of my hand.

1:15:59

And like you're looking at these. pictures and there's some

1:16:01

small text too. I expected it to

1:16:03

be like a coffee table book like

1:16:06

you know like bigger and so

1:16:09

it's a good book it's well written but because

1:16:12

it's so small a lot

1:16:14

of the print is like white print on a dark

1:16:16

background it just makes it kind of hard to read

1:16:19

uh it's small print it's just not a very

1:16:21

good coffee table size book it's like the size

1:16:24

of my smaller than my head look at

1:16:26

that. I was expecting it

1:16:28

to be bigger too Briar. Yeah yeah

1:16:30

I feel extra

1:16:32

bad but

1:16:35

I mean the writing of the book

1:16:37

is pretty good I just expected the form factor of the book

1:16:39

to be a little more enjoyable to look

1:16:41

at the pictures and you know stuff like

1:16:43

that. It's like an eight inch long book

1:16:45

or something maybe six very small you

1:16:47

know you expect these things to be like the big

1:16:49

you know yeah like at least the size of a

1:16:51

sheet of paper yeah yeah

1:16:54

at least okay that's

1:16:56

it. I have a ton of

1:16:59

stuff and I picked the things that I found

1:17:01

most interesting to show and I will

1:17:03

go as quickly as I can through them except for

1:17:05

the last few I have a little bit of a

1:17:07

story for so

1:17:10

we'll just these are all like well

1:17:13

not all box games but uh

1:17:16

quickly some of these I you know for

1:17:18

anybody who's new to the show I

1:17:21

enjoy collecting complete in box cardboard stuff

1:17:24

like Nintendo mostly and I also

1:17:26

very much enjoy like weird kind of

1:17:28

obscure or uncommon games they don't have

1:17:31

to be super expensive necessarily but

1:17:33

just stuff that you look at and you're like I've

1:17:35

never seen that before I've never seen that box before

1:17:37

you know stuff like that so a couple

1:17:40

of boxes are like that for me radical

1:17:42

psycho racing for the SNES

1:17:45

complete in box. Yeah

1:17:47

Blizzard games was that

1:17:50

the pre-war play yeah but

1:17:52

interplay I think my own Blizzard

1:17:54

or Publix for Blizzard RPM

1:17:57

because it's RPM racing yeah that was Before

1:18:00

rock and roll racing, Blizzard made that, I

1:18:02

think. Okay, that's Silicon

1:18:04

and Synapse, Inc. Yeah, that

1:18:06

was Blizzard. So

1:18:10

it's in decent, you know, it's in solid

1:18:12

shape, seven or eight out of 10. Yeah,

1:18:14

Blizzard, not the name it was. Five years ago,

1:18:16

now that I think about it. Yeah.

1:18:21

Here's another obscure one, Wiz, for

1:18:23

the SNES. Jeez, I didn't

1:18:25

know they had that kind of game for the Super

1:18:27

Nintendo. It's an adult, don't you think? It's

1:18:30

a bunny rabbit with the, does magic, apparently

1:18:32

it's got a hat. I don't

1:18:34

know, maybe it's from the hat. It's the tightest game, actually.

1:18:38

Oh. It's an isometric

1:18:40

view game. Oh. Never

1:18:42

played it. Don't know anything about

1:18:44

it. Interesting. It's interesting. I kinda like the

1:18:47

art on the box. Yeah, yeah, it

1:18:49

does, it looks whimsical. Good colors.

1:18:52

Zena, for the N64. Uh-huh.

1:18:55

Uh-huh. Not

1:19:00

a person, so a couple of these

1:19:02

boxes, I guess, in a couple that

1:19:04

I haven't gotten the games for yet.

1:19:06

Basically, I went to the local retro store, traded in

1:19:08

a bunch of stuff, some for credit, some for cash,

1:19:11

and I was in the back, because

1:19:14

they thumbprint you when they're giving you cash and stuff, and

1:19:16

I looked over and I saw a bunch of boxes on

1:19:18

the shelf, and I'm like, those have been there for a

1:19:20

while. Are you guys interested in just selling boxes? And

1:19:24

it's like, yeah, sure, come on over, come take a

1:19:26

look. I mean, I've been going there for like 10

1:19:28

years at this point, ever since it

1:19:30

opened. And so I start looking

1:19:33

at it, and I picked out, I don't

1:19:35

know, like eight boxes, and they priced it

1:19:37

really reasonably, and a few of them were

1:19:39

super minty. So, and

1:19:42

a lot of them, this has the registration card and

1:19:44

all the manuals and everything. So then I picked up

1:19:46

the game. Have you ever watched that show, Jack? Of

1:19:49

course I did, what do you mean? What

1:19:52

do you mean? I've

1:19:54

discovered myself during those

1:19:57

shows. Though

1:20:00

I don't remember her name. Yeah, you remember

1:20:02

her name. I don't I do remember on

1:20:05

I do remember the bad girl I Can't

1:20:08

remember her name either. No, I don't know

1:20:10

who you're talking about. Oh my god Yeah

1:20:15

No, but the side quite a show This

1:20:19

looks like it's like Tekken almost I don't

1:20:21

know it's like a fighting game I

1:20:24

don't know. I think it's a fighting game It

1:20:27

wasn't it's not expensive to get complete inbox either Also,

1:20:31

so scat You

1:20:33

like oh, yeah, that's a good game So

1:20:36

I got it's just it's just a box. It's not

1:20:38

a game But I

1:20:40

have the game that I got from them as well I just

1:20:42

need to find the manual now, but they price it They

1:20:45

priced it really reasonably and you know, it's like

1:20:47

a probably 200 plus dollar box. They gave

1:20:49

it to me for 110 All right, sure.

1:20:51

Cool. It's not an amazing shape, but they're

1:20:53

not easy to find boxes like that What

1:20:56

a time the 90s were when you'd name

1:20:58

it video game after World

1:21:06

is not enough lover and quake

1:21:08

for the n64 like for super

1:21:10

cheap from them and then like Also

1:21:13

Resident Evil 2 they sold me

1:21:15

the box and I got the the game and manual

1:21:17

separately So now I have resident evil 2 friends 64

1:21:19

complete I would like to

1:21:21

play that version of the game because it's

1:21:24

so interesting that they even made that you

1:21:26

know, right It doesn't look

1:21:28

terrible on the back. It's not terrible and it

1:21:30

used the expansion pack, but I think not

1:21:32

to good effect I think it increased the

1:21:34

resolution of the game a little bit, but

1:21:36

really dramatically hurt the frame rate if I

1:21:39

remember sure so and

1:21:41

after I got that stuff I went to my car and

1:21:44

I was like about to leave I turned on the car

1:21:46

I was about to leave and I just got this flash

1:21:48

in my brain of another box that I had seen on

1:21:50

the shelf and I Was like, huh?

1:21:53

I wonder if I have that art So I was like, I'm pretty sure

1:21:55

I have it, but I don't know the condition So I looked at all

1:21:57

my app and I'm like, oh I have it in here

1:22:00

is like a two and a half out of five box. So I

1:22:02

go back in and I was like, I'll just, I'll

1:22:04

pick up that box as well. And he just,

1:22:06

he just hands it to me and he goes, here you go. I'm

1:22:08

like, what do you mean? It's like a 20 or $30 box. He's

1:22:11

like, just take it. Like, you sure?

1:22:13

He's like, just take it. Enjoy it. Cause

1:22:15

I told him it's like one of my favorite games of all time. Oh,

1:22:18

1080. 1080

1:22:20

snowboarding. It's like minty mint

1:22:22

with all the inserts and everything. And I

1:22:24

just got to like, um, actually

1:22:26

it's, I guess it's like nine out of 10, not 10 out of

1:22:28

10, but I don't know. He

1:22:30

got a free box. It can

1:22:32

play. When's the last time you played that game? Been

1:22:35

a while. We should, I want to play it

1:22:38

on switch. We got to add that to the,

1:22:40

to the list of games to play. I played

1:22:42

it not that long ago when I was testing

1:22:44

out the controllers for N64 and it,

1:22:47

there's a learning curve to that game. It's not just

1:22:49

as easy as I remember it being. Well, and you

1:22:51

upgrade your skills and stuff as you go, if I

1:22:54

remember correctly. Yeah, that's true. So

1:22:56

I just got this in the mail today, Mega Man

1:22:58

zero two for the game boy advance in real good

1:23:00

shape. Uh, this

1:23:02

was sealed. Now

1:23:04

it's not, this was the first

1:23:07

sealed game that I opened for

1:23:10

game boy advance and over 20 years called

1:23:12

Wade Hickson's counter punch. Uh,

1:23:14

I got a lot of four of these sealed for

1:23:16

cheaper than it goes for complete in box, and

1:23:18

then we raised enough money last week for

1:23:21

me to open it. So now, but

1:23:23

funny story. I opened this brand new on stream

1:23:25

and the manual has a cut in it. What

1:23:29

are the odds that that happens in production? I

1:23:32

don't know. I mean, do you think somebody resealed it? I

1:23:34

don't think so. It was a legit seal. Um,

1:23:37

but maybe it happened on the production line or

1:23:39

something. It was just really weird. Uh,

1:23:42

Tecmo Super Bowl two, the SNES.

1:23:47

This is the expensive one. Okay.

1:23:49

So I had gotten the cart previously

1:23:51

and I was able to pick up like the

1:23:53

box and every other insert, like the registration poster

1:23:55

on that. Notably the last time the Cowboys in

1:23:57

the Super Bowl have been in the

1:23:59

same. image

1:24:08

another obscure game Ron my half I've been looking

1:24:10

for this one for a good while actually I

1:24:12

had a game one it's

1:24:14

what fighting game yes

1:24:18

DTCM I don't

1:24:20

know anything about them called hard battle and

1:24:23

I know that it's an anime series I have not watched

1:24:25

it but I just it's kind

1:24:27

of one of those obscure games it's not like the

1:24:29

most expensive thing in the world this is like 80

1:24:31

bucks complete but I

1:24:34

don't know I just like stuff like that I remember when

1:24:36

I was in the Street Fighter 2 on

1:24:39

the Super Nintendo seeing that game be like should

1:24:42

I get it I don't know it's a fighting

1:24:44

game I like fighting games but that one looks

1:24:46

weird I

1:24:49

don't think it's a bad game you

1:24:51

know I don't think it's great okay

1:24:54

and so I got two more games they're both n64

1:24:56

carts you might have seen me tweet about

1:24:58

one of them I'll

1:25:01

start with this one first so I got

1:25:03

a lot of games from somebody with boxes

1:25:06

or relatively cheap probably less

1:25:09

than a quarter of what they're worth and

1:25:11

this was the highlight that

1:25:15

was the game that you tweeted

1:25:17

about with the highlight no well that was

1:25:19

a different this is this is from something

1:25:21

else so I actually had

1:25:23

gotten the so the

1:25:25

Super Bowl in for n64 I think it's like the

1:25:28

second or third most expensive n64 game it

1:25:30

also came with the box like

1:25:33

a thousand dollar box in good condition oh

1:25:36

wow what this

1:25:38

one's not a good condition it

1:25:40

has like a chunk of

1:25:43

the cardboard taken out and all the boxes they

1:25:45

didn't advertise this in any of the boxes I

1:25:47

got like Conker's Bad Fur Day complete in box

1:25:49

for like 90 bucks and all

1:25:52

this stuff and I got it and I was like

1:25:54

a mouse

1:25:56

or mice got to these like

1:25:58

it was in storage And it

1:26:01

smelled like mouse pee and some

1:26:03

of them had a mouth poop on them. No

1:26:05

and So

1:26:07

the top of the box a

1:26:09

mouse got to and made it its

1:26:11

nest nesting Like so

1:26:13

I'm trying to like if it was in good shape, I

1:26:16

might have kept it a box But

1:26:18

all the carts were in pretty good shape. Actually, I

1:26:20

just had to like, you know I

1:26:22

took some alcohol to the plastic and stuff just

1:26:25

to make sure But you

1:26:27

know other than the sticker on the on the label

1:26:29

here like they're they're in good shape There's a couple

1:26:31

of them that were in really good shape like Conkers

1:26:33

and stuff But the boxes

1:26:35

they're in the garage in a box like I'm trying

1:26:37

to fire sail those pop those puppies Yeah, you gotta

1:26:39

leave those if you're gonna keep shit in the garage.

1:26:41

You gotta feel it up tight Yeah,

1:26:44

so, you know, I hear works good

1:26:46

against mice is mint. They don't

1:26:48

like mint apparently interesting We have

1:26:50

mint in droves in our front Hmm

1:26:53

and it did not deter like we've had mice

1:26:55

in a garage before but not like this. Yeah

1:26:59

And it wasn't from us like I bought them and they

1:27:01

were this way So I like I messaged a person was

1:27:03

like hey, I'm not gonna ask for a refund or anything

1:27:05

like that But just so you know, you need to you

1:27:08

need to designate this in the future. Like this is

1:27:10

gross I don't even want

1:27:12

to touch these like this is nasty. Like I

1:27:14

could catch something from easy, you know I

1:27:17

wouldn't had a mouse build a nest in a

1:27:19

motorcycle. I sold the motorcycle I'm

1:27:22

out of here But

1:27:25

I'll make I should be able

1:27:27

to make my money back and then some and then

1:27:29

also get to keep a couple of

1:27:31

games Like this is a this is a four to

1:27:33

five hundred dollar cart. Yeah, and they're not

1:27:35

they're not affected by the mouse No, no,

1:27:37

and I yeah, I took I took I

1:27:39

suppose to everything and yeah, they work great

1:27:41

and all that stuff So it was the

1:27:43

carts were in good shape and boxes. No,

1:27:46

the manuals. No, like it was

1:27:48

growing. You can't wash cardboard No,

1:27:51

there's no way to yeah, there's no way to clean

1:27:53

that stuff That's too bad. Somebody else somebody will buy

1:27:55

it at some price just to have it and so

1:28:00

Like it's a it's a really hard to find

1:28:02

box. It's really rare Somebody

1:28:04

completing their collection. I'll buy it. It's fine. And

1:28:07

then the virus Yeah

1:28:13

And this last one I tweeted about for years Yes

1:28:19

For years every single time I saw

1:28:21

a WWF No mercy cart

1:28:23

for the n64 black carters every time

1:28:25

I see one whether it's

1:28:27

online eBay whether it's locally Whether it's

1:28:30

game store every single time I check

1:28:32

the bottom Because

1:28:34

there's a 1.1 version of this game

1:28:37

that fixes a game-breaking bug that

1:28:40

will delete your save And

1:28:42

the only way you could get it is

1:28:45

by sending your copy in to THQ

1:28:48

and getting a replacement Okay,

1:28:51

I've every single time because the only

1:28:53

way to tell is that it says

1:28:56

USA dash one Can you show

1:28:58

that only way to tell? Huh,

1:29:00

can you show that yeah, I don't see it.

1:29:03

So I got the cart You

1:29:06

can see down here Right

1:29:09

there at the very

1:29:11

bottom under the THQ. It says USA

1:29:14

Dash one really tiny

1:29:19

And that's the only way It's

1:29:22

under the THQ the very

1:29:24

bottom right there Okay, USA

1:29:26

dash one. Okay. Yeah, I see it

1:29:29

the only way to ever

1:29:31

are if you ever see a black No

1:29:34

mercy carters check to see that what does

1:29:37

it say? Yes the old version just USA

1:29:39

USA Okay, so

1:29:41

it's a revision. It's the 1.1. It takes a 30 to 40 dollar

1:29:43

game and makes it a 300 to 400 dollar game Interesting.

1:29:49

So I finally organically found one

1:29:51

online on eBay and I bought

1:29:53

it so quick From

1:29:56

a game store on eBay

1:30:00

They didn't know about it. And so I didn't feel

1:30:02

bad. I was like you're a game story. You should

1:30:04

know about this Yeah, I was like

1:30:06

and you know, they probably spent 15 bucks

1:30:08

on it 20 bucks. Maybe they've been on

1:30:10

this game So I

1:30:12

I didn't feel bad about it. It's in

1:30:15

fantastic shape. It's like probably the mintest

1:30:17

copy of this that you'll ever find Yeah,

1:30:20

it looks I'm not selling it or anything

1:30:22

like that Just it's one

1:30:24

of if not the rarest card that a

1:30:26

card that exists for n64. They're also real

1:30:30

quick there was a couple of

1:30:32

years ago there was a potential

1:30:35

previous employee of THQ who had a few cases

1:30:37

of this of This revision

1:30:39

and he sold them on eBay for like

1:30:41

80 bucks a pop. They were sealed Like

1:30:45

box manual cart. The

1:30:48

only way to tell was to open the box and look at the

1:30:50

cart Because everything else was

1:30:52

the same same box same manual same everything The

1:30:54

only way to tell us either look at the

1:30:56

board or look at that dash one Wow

1:31:01

So there's people out there that have a sealed copy

1:31:03

of that that they got directly from that dude

1:31:06

Yep, and I guess if you had a

1:31:08

receipt like you could prove it's from that dude,

1:31:10

right? Potentially if you know

1:31:12

the story Yeah, hmm. That's

1:31:15

interesting Pretty

1:31:19

cool pretty excited to have it. That's a cool

1:31:21

pickup man. Nice pickup. I When

1:31:25

you posted that on Twitter, I was that was an interesting there's not a lot of

1:31:27

interesting stuff on Twitter, but that was well I Got

1:31:30

I got both those n64 carts like days

1:31:32

apart from each other. Yeah, it's pretty smart Do

1:31:35

you collect a lot of n64? When

1:31:38

I can yeah, yeah I

1:31:45

would imagine that it's not it's not one of the harder systems to get a

1:31:47

complete set for right? No, I think I think if I remember croak it's like

1:31:50

Between six and seven hundred carts or something like that. This is that many

1:31:52

I thought was like 250 You

1:32:01

might be right. US

1:32:04

N64. How

1:32:08

many? Oh, 296. That's

1:32:14

not including variant for a Nintendo console. Yeah, not including

1:32:16

variants. I wonder what it is for like the Wii

1:32:19

or the Switch. Oh,

1:32:22

it's going to be astronomical. Yeah. Switch

1:32:24

has over a thousand for sure. What is it for NES? Is it

1:32:26

like 900 for the NES? NES

1:32:29

has 640 or 670. I

1:32:32

would have guessed way more. It felt like there was a

1:32:34

billion games. License games. So

1:32:37

I own 121 unique N64. I

1:32:41

think it's actually a few more than that. And I

1:32:43

was going to see quickly how many of

1:32:45

these I have complete. Sorry.

1:32:52

This for the N64 you're looking at? Yeah. I

1:32:57

own 89 complete in box games.

1:33:00

Okay. How many do you own

1:33:02

total? 121

1:33:05

unique games. Like

1:33:09

more than 70% of my collection is more than 70% of my collection is CIV.

1:33:13

That's cool. All right. I

1:33:16

hate to call it short, but I got to go pick up my way

1:33:18
