They take a bunch of like 195 00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:46.919 a high profile I guess celebrity not celebrity chefs, but 196 00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:50.639 uh popular chefs that have been on other cooking competitions, 197 00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:55.679 So Top Chef Champions, Chopped Champions, Guys Grocery Games Champions, 198 00:09:55.720 --> 00:09:58.720 Iron Chef branding or no, no Iron Chef branding, but 199 00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:03.000 some ex Iron Chef but like Stephanie Izard okay, And 200 00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:06.080 they will put them in like a top sixteen bracket 201 00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:09.120 for for them to go against each other. It's real 202 00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:14.679 good stuff. Also, there's a a the neat thing about 203 00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:16.840 it is that there's a randomizer that picks a protein, 204 00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:19.480 a style, another thing, another ingredient, and then like a 205 00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:22.759 time limit, so each round is different. I think you 206 00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:25.159 could get in on season one and then and then 207 00:10:25.279 --> 00:10:28.000 kind of get the gist of it. There's heels everybody. 208 00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:30.799 They're always like underdogs and everything. It's great. 209 00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:32.120 They're always are. 210 00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:35.039 The reason Mike thinks it's all reruns is because the 211 00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:36.559 only time we watch Food Network is when we're in 212 00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:39.879 a hotel room that we share together, and we get 213 00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:41.320 back to the hotel room at one am and then 214 00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:43.200 we put it on for like two hours. That's the 215 00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:44.759 only time he's watched it in the last couple of years, 216 00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:47.279 and which is all just grocery games or whatever. It's 217 00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:48.080 got closure games. 218 00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:50.320 I'm like, oh, this hasn't changed it all since I 219 00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:51.879 watched it when I was a different person. 220 00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:54.960 Did you all know there's a new host of Man 221 00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:58.000 Versus Food. It's not that it's not Adam Richmond anymore. 222 00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.320 I thought that's ever. 223 00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:04.000 I don't know if this makes any came back. I 224 00:11:04.080 --> 00:11:06.360 think they brought it back. Also, I think they've had 225 00:11:06.399 --> 00:11:08.519 a new host for like eight years now, so he's not. 226 00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:11.279 They still just make that man. I thought that because 227 00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:12.919 he had the first couple of seasons and then he 228 00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:15.720 was killing himself, so they tried to change it where 229 00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:18.320 he was like more coaching people to do the food challenges, 230 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:20.399 and it wasn't wasn't exactly the same. 231 00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:22.120 But yeah, I wanted to see the man die. 232 00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:22.600 Yeah. 233 00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:26.600 Oh okay, Yes, he left the show fifteen years ago, 234 00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:30.039 so it's quite a while ago. Uh. This makes me think, y'all, 235 00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:33.679 we could approach someone Food Network and be like, hey, 236 00:11:34.360 --> 00:11:37.399 we got we got a couple of lovely dudes here 237 00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:40.919 with interesting food preferences. Wouldn't you like to see them 238 00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:45.039 tour the world and try new things together. 239 00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:46.440 I don't want to try new things. 240 00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:48.720 Yeah, that's the problem the show, Jan They just won't 241 00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:49.440 do anything. 242 00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:53.080 Yeah, but Mike, like what you know, like we could 243 00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:55.159 go to different Disney Disney's what about that? 244 00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:58.480 You're lying the least new thing new thing you could 245 00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:00.960 have said?

This is 267 00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:00.399 a good thing shop. 268 00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:01.840 Is it like a bizarre like? 269 00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:02.399 Is it like that? 270 00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:02.679 Like? 271 00:13:03.879 --> 00:13:06.679 Is it because at some point a character goes saloon 272 00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:07.519 Gay Bowser? 273 00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:18.559 That was good, editing this one. 274 00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:21.080 Mario sixty four, Joe, that's great. 275 00:13:21.080 --> 00:13:23.799 Okay, Yeah, Mario sixty four. So this is a rom 276 00:13:23.919 --> 00:13:27.399 hack that I played on GB Kids yesterday, So make 277 00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:28.840 sure to check out the vod if you didn't. Jan 278 00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:31.519 hung out with me for that one. Uh, this is 279 00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:34.679 a rom hack that came out of a was it 280 00:13:34.799 --> 00:13:38.720 called Simple Flips Chaos Mario team competition at the page 281 00:13:38.759 --> 00:13:41.320 from me, that's the only reason I know that. But yeah, 282 00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:44.039 this was a competition where that Simple Flips put together, 283 00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:48.240 where I found out apparently so it was a small 284 00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:52.320 amount of people in total, and he actually commissioned them. 285 00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:55.120 So basically he like you know, compensated them for their 286 00:13:55.159 --> 00:13:58.000 time because rom hacking is hard, and we got a 287 00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:00.720 whole bunch of really cool Mario sixty four hacks of it. 288 00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:02.960 And this is one that I've been seeing some people 289 00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:06.519 play and it was really interesting to me. Also credit 290 00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:10.240 to once again anonymous moose furious fight in SPKA. They 291 00:14:10.279 --> 00:14:12.919 were a team who put this one together. Uh, this 292 00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:18.320 was this is Mario sixty four. But it's a roguelike 293 00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:20.360 deck builder, And if you want to get a little 294 00:14:20.360 --> 00:14:23.879 more buzzworthy with it, it's it's bilatro Mario sixty four. 295 00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:28.000 It's crazy. You spawn in, you are presented with a level. 296 00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:30.000 It's a painting in front of you, Mario sixty four. 297 00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:31.480 You know how it goes. You jump in the painting, 298 00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:35.600 you go to a level. The thing is b, A, Z, 299 00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:39.080 and R the you know, like jump, crouch, slide all 300 00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:42.879 those buns on the controller. Instead of just having access 301 00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:46.639 to jump and punch and everything like that, Instead, a 302 00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:50.039 deck deals a card out to each of those buns, 303 00:14:50.559 --> 00:14:54.120 and what the card has is what that bun will 304 00:14:54.240 --> 00:14:57.279 do for a limited number of uses. So like the 305 00:14:57.440 --> 00:14:59.399 if your A bun gets punched, well your A bun 306 00:14:59.519 --> 00:15:02.720 is punched like four times, it be is backflip. You 307 00:15:02.799 --> 00:15:05.279 get backflip twice, and then when you burn the card, 308 00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:06.879 you go to the next one and narther one gets 309 00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:07.799 delta out of a deck. 310 00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:10.240 Okay, so once the car burns, you automatically get a 311 00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:10.639 new card. 312 00:15:10.759 --> 00:15:13.639 Yes, you get Delta new one and the idea is 313 00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:16.879 to get a star before you run out of card actions, 314 00:15:17.360 --> 00:15:19.159 so you have a limit. It's really cool because then 315 00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:20.720 you have to think about things differently. You have to 316 00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:22.600 think about the fact that you have a limited number. 317 00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:26.679 I've jumps of flips, of combat moves like punches and 318 00:15:27.240 --> 00:15:30.440 the breakdance I was using to actually take enemies out and. 319 00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:31.960 Stuff infensive breakdancing. Yes. 320 00:15:32.200 --> 00:15:36.080 Yeah, it makes you think think about every action that 321 00:15:36.080 --> 00:15:38.200 you're going to take and turns Mario sixty four into 322 00:15:38.399 --> 00:15:41.679 like a puzzle platform. And yeah, I was playing down 323 00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:43.519 stream for like two hours yesterday. I was having a 324 00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:47.600 blast because it's just it's We talked about this when 325 00:15:47.679 --> 00:15:50.039 Dan was playing that one shooter a game I forget 326 00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:53.000 which one was that little like retro one that what 327 00:15:53.159 --> 00:15:54.879 Donkey's team picked up recently. 328 00:15:55.080 --> 00:15:57.679 And yes, I'll get it. Hang on. Yeah, Legend of 329 00:15:57.759 --> 00:15:59.440 Stardom or something like that. I got right here in 330 00:15:59.440 --> 00:15:59.879 my library. 331 00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:02.840 But while we were playing that, we were talking of providence. 332 00:16:02.960 --> 00:16:05.200 There you go. We were talking about roguelikes in general 333 00:16:05.240 --> 00:16:08.080 and how they usually don't click with me, but for me, 334 00:16:09.639 --> 00:16:12.440 when you take a concept that is very Arcadie or 335 00:16:12.480 --> 00:16:15.200 something you really really know, and then add a rogue 336 00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:17.639 like element to it. It just makes a more interesting 337 00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:19.919 way to experience something you already know. That's what this 338 00:16:20.159 --> 00:16:23.000 rom hack is. It's a very polished rom hack. You 339 00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:26.320 enter into like Luigi's little casino and there's all these 340 00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:29.399 little like nice little things. So Luigi's like the dealer, 341 00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:32.600 so you also like you know, the blotro shot. Between rounds, 342 00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:35.200 you go up to Luigi, you can buy new cards. 343 00:16:35.559 --> 00:16:39.240 You go over to Vivian, she'll like enhance the cards 344 00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:41.440 that you already have already. Can go up to the 345 00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:47.360 homie Monty Mole and Ponty mo five card, Banti fifteen coins, 346 00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:49.399 He'll shuffle up the cards. You get a random one. 347 00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:52.480 It's really funny, just there's so much charm and like 348 00:16:52.759 --> 00:16:56.559 between rounds, between stars basically you can go up to 349 00:16:56.600 --> 00:16:58.879 the various characters in the casino talk to them. There's 350 00:16:58.960 --> 00:17:02.919 little dialogues and everything. And I think where the game 351 00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:06.960 gets really interesting is that there's some wild cards you 352 00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:09.240 can get. Because I just described like punch and jump back, 353 00:17:09.359 --> 00:17:12.240 but these are like pretty you know, it's Mario sixty 354 00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:16.519 four stuff. But how about Rocket, which is just Mario 355 00:17:16.680 --> 00:17:18.599 goes straight up soaring in the air like he has 356 00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:21.839 the rocket nozzle from Super Mario Sunshine. They implement a 357 00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:25.480 cloud Mario from Galaxy where you put a platform beneath 358 00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:26.400 you while you're in the midair. 359 00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:27.960 Ma that's my favorite power up. 360 00:17:28.200 --> 00:17:31.599 And there's some even more wild ones. There's Totsugeki from 361 00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:34.839 May from Guilty Gear where Mario hops on dolphining rockets 362 00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:38.880 across the stage. There's Release EO Physics that I got yesterday. 363 00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:41.759 What happens when you draw that? Physics are just whatever 364 00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:43.880 the hell the game decides they are. At that point, 365 00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:48.480 you're forgetting about Yeah, what's up? Dan? Which the Mario choir, 366 00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:52.680 the Mario choir. When you draw that one, the music 367 00:17:52.839 --> 00:17:56.880 is replaced with smooth mcgroo's style, Mario doing the music acapella. 368 00:17:58.559 --> 00:18:01.480 They had so much fun making this, you can tell. 369 00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:04.799 And it's just incredibly polished and a lot of fun. 370 00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:07.279 And I've been having a blast playing this. I was 371 00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:09.839 doing some runs before the show here today, like I'm hosked. 372 00:18:10.359 --> 00:18:11.079 It's a lot of fun. 373 00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:14.400 Would you say that you are you are you benefit 374 00:18:14.519 --> 00:18:17.640 playing this game because you are so into Mario sixty four? 375 00:18:17.680 --> 00:18:19.759 Do you think maybe okay, because it was wondering like 376 00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:21.720 if that holds you back. So my concern would be, like, 377 00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:24.599 it's second nature to me at this point playing Mario 378 00:18:24.680 --> 00:18:27.400 sixty four. It's basically riding a bike. I go in there, 379 00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:29.279 I play that game. I'm not even thinking about it. 380 00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:32.119 I'm just doing. So if things move around on me, 381 00:18:32.519 --> 00:18:34.880 I might feel like, oh, maybe someone who isn't as 382 00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:36.960 familiar might have a better chance with this. But you've 383 00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:38.519 been malleable with it and it's been good for you. 384 00:18:38.839 --> 00:18:42.079 Yeah, And so I would say that obviously, Like if 385 00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:44.960 you're not playing Mario sixty four before, I wouldn't you know, 386 00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:48.720 I wouldn't jump right into this one. But if you've 387 00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:51.359 played Mario sixty four, you've played three D platforms, that's 388 00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:55.240 your thing, then this is a fun way to do 389 00:18:55.400 --> 00:18:58.839 something new with it. It's like with Pokemon, you're not 390 00:18:58.960 --> 00:19:01.400 going to start, oh, come on, by the first time 391 00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:03.519 you've ever played it doing like a nuzzlock or an 392 00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:06.440 iron monitor or something like that. But if you are 393 00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:09.720 familiar with the games even a little bit, then you 394 00:19:09.839 --> 00:19:11.880 get into this more advanced rule set because it's more 395 00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:13.759 of what you're looking for. That's what this is for 396 00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:16.559 me right now. It's just revitalizing a game that I 397 00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:19.440 really love and playing a very unique spin on it. 398 00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:20.960 It's really cool. 399 00:19:21.480 --> 00:19:24.519 Yeah. I like that you also have to practice restraint, 400 00:19:24.720 --> 00:19:28.039 because Shannie were saying this a lot in the stream 401 00:19:28.119 --> 00:19:33.680 yesterday that you generally are super gung ho about exploring 402 00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:36.279 a level real quick. Yeah. Here, because you can't even 403 00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:39.279 jump up to go through some stairs, you have to 404 00:19:39.319 --> 00:19:41.880 be more reserved with how you're approaching things. I also 405 00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:46.519 like how they It just gets you to think with 406 00:19:46.640 --> 00:19:50.079 this tool set a completely different way that I don't 407 00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:52.319 know I would like to see in a different platform er. 408 00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:56.440 Some folks in chatter saying like, I wonder if you 409 00:19:56.480 --> 00:20:00.200 could implement this in like a Mario maker to type 410 00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:00.480 of thing. 411 00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:04.240 I was thinking, Yeah, I was thinking like a Glover. Yeah, 412 00:20:06.119 --> 00:20:09.200 this feels like the kind of thing that obviously there's 413 00:20:09.400 --> 00:20:11.519 references to our properties and stuff that they wouldn't do. 414 00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:14.559 Like I mentioned Guilty Gear and Exodia's in here. If 415 00:20:14.599 --> 00:20:16.359 you get all five piece of Exodia, it gives you 416 00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:20.640 a random star that's that's really funny. But outside of that, 417 00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:23.319 it actually feels like the kind of thing nintent like 418 00:20:23.480 --> 00:20:26.480 weird Nintendo would do themselves. It feels like a nes 419 00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:29.799 remix style of thing, and it did. The quality is 420 00:20:29.880 --> 00:20:33.039 there that it feels like, yeah, like a complete product 421 00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:34.319 that they put together. It's awesome. 422 00:20:35.079 --> 00:20:36.920 Do you think that they could if they wanted to, 423 00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:40.079 let's say, put this on Steam, remove all the Mario 424 00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:42.799 stuff and replace it with generic stuff or new stuff, 425 00:20:42.960 --> 00:20:45.240 or like let's say they teamed up with a bunch 426 00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:48.480 of indie games and replace it would like shovel Night 427 00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:50.319 characters and things like that. Do you think this game 428 00:20:50.400 --> 00:20:51.440 could stand on its own? 429 00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:53.839 I genuinely think it would. I think this is the 430 00:20:53.920 --> 00:20:56.000 kind of thing that like could pop off if they 431 00:20:56.319 --> 00:20:59.920 wanted to remix it in a way that was their 432 00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:01.920 own and not just a rom haack. But at the 433 00:21:01.920 --> 00:21:05.519 same time, rom haacking is very much its own art 434 00:21:05.640 --> 00:21:09.119 form because you have a base to build on. The 435 00:21:09.240 --> 00:21:13.119 second you get into making your own game and having 436 00:21:13.160 --> 00:21:15.720 to build an engine, build original assets and everything, that 437 00:21:15.799 --> 00:21:19.359 takes so much damn time, takes so much effort. Again, 438 00:21:19.480 --> 00:21:22.079 especially like if you're getting like a little bit cash 439 00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:24.680 to put together a rom haack, that's like a sustainable 440 00:21:24.720 --> 00:21:27.240 thing you can do in your free time. But investing 441 00:21:27.279 --> 00:21:30.000 in making an indie game. That's why you don't see 442 00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:31.880 as much of that as people just you know, playing 443 00:21:31.920 --> 00:21:33.480 together a romhack with something that they are right. 444 00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:35.160 No, so yeah, it. 445 00:21:35.160 --> 00:21:37.599 Would be cool to get that isle to see this 446 00:21:37.640 --> 00:21:39.279 for star Fucks and it's like, man, yeah, the nick 447 00:21:39.400 --> 00:21:42.039 star Fux should be a roguelike, absolutely should be basically 448 00:21:42.200 --> 00:21:45.200 already is Yeah, they already did, right Yeah. 449 00:21:46.039 --> 00:21:49.279 Speaking about Nintendo sixty four games, Mike Manatti, you have 450 00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:53.359 continued down the n sixty four memory train by checking 451 00:21:53.400 --> 00:21:55.039 out Barbran Hero. Yeah. 452 00:21:55.119 --> 00:21:58.799 My nintenn sixty four apology tour basically. 453 00:21:58.440 --> 00:21:59.640 Listen, we're appreciative. 454 00:22:00.599 --> 00:22:04.519 Yeah. So yeah, I finished Misshift Makers and I talked 455 00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:07.400 about that. Barmann Heroes another game that I played as 456 00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:10.200 a kid in Lights never got super far, and I 457 00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:12.119 think it was kind of a rental for us. I 458 00:22:12.160 --> 00:22:16.359 think most people remember Bomberman sixty four for the system, 459 00:22:16.799 --> 00:22:19.240 which was a more traditional Bomberman game. It had this 460 00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:22.119 great adventure mode that was like, you know, very puzzle based. 461 00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:25.480 Barman Hero is more of a traditional just single player 462 00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:28.960 action adventure game where you have to be Bomberman and 463 00:22:29.119 --> 00:22:33.480 you're throwing bombs, but it's actually just super fun and charming, 464 00:22:33.599 --> 00:22:36.039 and you know, it's it's kind of a simple game. 465 00:22:36.160 --> 00:22:38.599 It's in more that you know that Super Mario three 466 00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:40.599 D world style where you have these sort of short 467 00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:44.079 bursts of levels and they're they're relatively linear. There's some 468 00:22:44.279 --> 00:22:47.599 that open up more just something about being barman running 469 00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:50.799 around throwing bombs. There's actually very good boss fights of that. 470 00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:54.559 Music is great. The main song especially is. 471 00:22:54.880 --> 00:22:56.480 A big bop. 472 00:22:57.640 --> 00:22:59.599 So yeah, I had a lot of fun going through 473 00:22:59.640 --> 00:23:01.319 this one. Actually just ended up playing through the whole 474 00:23:01.400 --> 00:23:03.880 thing in like one five hour stream. It was, you know, 475 00:23:04.319 --> 00:23:06.759 fun enough to do that. Some challenging busses at the end, 476 00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:10.240 and it has the bomber Man upgrades still where you know, 477 00:23:10.920 --> 00:23:13.519 you know, you get those fire things and your bombs. Yeah, 478 00:23:13.880 --> 00:23:16.200 drop more bombs, bigger explosions. It can't be a little 479 00:23:16.240 --> 00:23:18.839 annoying because theen you game over, you lose those so 480 00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:20.400 you can like go back to a boss fight, but 481 00:23:20.440 --> 00:23:22.240 you don't have any upgrades. So it's like, okay, we'll 482 00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:25.039 go to an old level and get some upgrades again, 483 00:23:25.119 --> 00:23:27.119 then go back to the boss fight to make it easier. 484 00:23:27.799 --> 00:23:30.359 So that aspect was maybe a little frustrating, but not 485 00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:33.400 a huge deal. Generally, I thought this was a really 486 00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:36.400 fun playthrough. You know, this isn't like some big hidden 487 00:23:36.519 --> 00:23:38.319 gym for sixty four. I think people know about it, 488 00:23:38.400 --> 00:23:40.759 but you know, it's not a first round pick, right. 489 00:23:40.839 --> 00:23:43.640 People don't name this one if they start naming twenty 490 00:23:43.720 --> 00:23:45.759 and sixty four games or something. But I think more 491 00:23:45.799 --> 00:23:48.480 people should look at it if you have an affinity 492 00:23:48.759 --> 00:23:50.039 for that system. 493 00:23:51.799 --> 00:23:55.680 I want. I want Bomberman to have like a renaissance. 494 00:23:56.720 --> 00:23:59.160 Yeah, bar Man had a go ahead, Jeff I was 495 00:23:59.200 --> 00:24:01.519 gonna say' super Bow are launched with the switch they did, 496 00:24:01.559 --> 00:24:05.559 super Bomberman are two within the last couple of years. 497 00:24:05.920 --> 00:24:07.960 But I think what we're talking about here when we 498 00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:10.960 say that, Jenks, I feel the same way is get 499 00:24:11.000 --> 00:24:13.839 a little bit more experimental with like what you were 500 00:24:13.880 --> 00:24:16.440 doing with like have one three D game every ten 501 00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:19.839 years or something like that. Again, you know, I know 502 00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:22.119 that at this point, it's like we kind of whiplashed 503 00:24:22.200 --> 00:24:24.279 back from oh those three D games were three D 504 00:24:24.359 --> 00:24:26.079 games were interesting, but let's just get back to what 505 00:24:26.160 --> 00:24:28.200 Bomberman really is. And it's like, well we've had that 506 00:24:28.319 --> 00:24:30.400 for a long time now, maybe let's flip back and 507 00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:32.440 try some other stuff again. I would really welcome that. 508 00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:36.240 Yeah, Barberman was kind of had a kind of just 509 00:24:36.319 --> 00:24:38.759 popping off there in this sixty four era because he 510 00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:41.960 had Saturn Bomberman before that. It's like maybe the most 511 00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:45.000 beloved of those ten players style on. Yeah. Oh and 512 00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:48.000 then yes, the sixty four had the two sixty four games. 513 00:24:48.279 --> 00:24:51.799 The sequel is pretty rare now, but in Hero so yeah, 514 00:24:51.799 --> 00:24:53.960 they're just doing a lot of interesting things with Bomberman 515 00:24:54.440 --> 00:24:57.799 at the time. And then nine to eleven happened. I 516 00:24:57.799 --> 00:24:58.079 don't know. 517 00:24:58.119 --> 00:25:06.680 I so it's a surprise. Oklahoma City didn't take this 518 00:25:06.759 --> 00:25:08.400 guy down. It took you a nine to eleven. 519 00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:08.400 To make it. 520 00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:12.119 It was it was srough to have bomber Man, isn't it. 521 00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:13.200 It's rough. 522 00:25:14.079 --> 00:25:16.359 I was not expecting that. That one got me. 523 00:25:16.920 --> 00:25:19.359 Oh. I thought of a joke, but I can't. I 524 00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:20.680 can't bring myself to say it. 525 00:25:21.240 --> 00:25:22.759 Text it to Mic and have him say it. 526 00:25:24.680 --> 00:25:28.200 Uh, Konami, get on, get get your check books out. 527 00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:33.720 We need go ahead, chance, sorry, we need a two. 528 00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:37.640 D bomber Man game that is an action platformer, perhaps 529 00:25:37.799 --> 00:25:42.799 of this flatformer subgenre. They already tried to take your 530 00:25:42.880 --> 00:25:47.880 lunch explosion man. That's pretty much just bomber Man that's. 531 00:25:47.759 --> 00:25:49.759 Actually not bad and that would be fun. Give him 532 00:25:49.759 --> 00:25:52.240 like a d K sixty four or DKnet ninety four 533 00:25:52.319 --> 00:25:55.119 move set. But I'm very different there. 534 00:25:55.839 --> 00:25:58.000 Yeah, there you go, Ki cut the check. 535 00:25:59.119 --> 00:26:01.279 I just haven't accept did Konami as the owners of 536 00:26:01.359 --> 00:26:04.039 Bomberman yet? I don't know what I mean. They do right, 537 00:26:04.079 --> 00:26:06.119 and they did the bomber Man our games, but I 538 00:26:06.240 --> 00:26:10.279 always forget about Hudson Soft really not being Yeah, is 539 00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:13.759 that they're just gone Hudson Hudson twenty twelve. Hudson was 540 00:26:13.839 --> 00:26:16.079 merging the Konami Digital entertain I. 541 00:26:16.160 --> 00:26:18.359 Was looking at this because and no one tell them 542 00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:20.960 he won't listen to this. I was like, this is 543 00:26:21.039 --> 00:26:22.480 that we wouldn't be a black club or anything. But 544 00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:25.720 I found a This is the Beast played this in 545 00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:28.640 sixty four dating sim made by the Mario Party team 546 00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:32.680 at Hudson with mini games, and I'm like, I think 547 00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:34.720 I want to there's an English translation now that just 548 00:26:34.759 --> 00:26:36.519 got done in the last couple of years. So I 549 00:26:36.599 --> 00:26:39.279 was like, man, Hudson made all those Mario Party games. 550 00:26:39.640 --> 00:26:41.319 When did they stop making him. It's like a long 551 00:26:41.440 --> 00:26:43.279 time ago they stopped making him. So it's like, what 552 00:26:43.400 --> 00:26:44.160 happened to Hudson. 553 00:26:44.240 --> 00:26:47.079 What's the name of this game, Jeff, I'll look it up. 554 00:26:47.119 --> 00:26:50.960 Just give me a second, Okay, sure, uh yeahs I 555 00:26:51.079 --> 00:26:53.000 was a big bonk guy too. In fact, I think 556 00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:56.319 Bomberman Hero at one point was like originally supposed to 557 00:26:56.359 --> 00:26:58.400 be a bonk game, and that's why it's kind of 558 00:26:58.480 --> 00:27:01.720 initial DNA feels so different from the other bombing games, 559 00:27:01.759 --> 00:27:04.640 even though it still has a ton of Bomberman flavor 560 00:27:04.920 --> 00:27:05.279 in there. 561 00:27:06.519 --> 00:27:09.880 Well, the nostalgia tour doesn't end there with Bomberman Hero, 562 00:27:10.039 --> 00:27:13.440 Jeff Grub, You've continued your adventures with Grim Fandango. 563 00:27:14.400 --> 00:27:18.160 Yeah. I actually finished Grim Fandango over the weekend. That 564 00:27:18.680 --> 00:27:19.680 was a lot of fun. 565 00:27:20.319 --> 00:27:20.599 It was. 566 00:27:20.920 --> 00:27:22.400 It definitely got to the point where it's like, okay, 567 00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:25.519 I am at least on this game's wavelength a little bit. 568 00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:28.119 I still needed help very frequently, like that's what those 569 00:27:28.160 --> 00:27:30.880 adventure games are. But you know, you begin to learn 570 00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:33.720 like everything needs to you need to try everything on everything. 571 00:27:33.880 --> 00:27:36.000 So at a certain point I was doing that to 572 00:27:36.079 --> 00:27:37.960 the point where I was stumbling across a couple of 573 00:27:38.039 --> 00:27:42.759 solutions just you know, by happenstance through pure luck. But 574 00:27:42.839 --> 00:27:44.480 that luck was you know man made because it's like, oh, 575 00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:45.880 you know, I'm just gonna try this on everything. I 576 00:27:45.960 --> 00:27:47.920 just got a gun before I go up there. Let 577 00:27:47.960 --> 00:27:49.480 me try it on this thing before I get up 578 00:27:49.480 --> 00:27:52.160 to go up the hill, that sort of thing. But really, 579 00:27:52.200 --> 00:27:54.319 I mean, I came to this game with the expectation 580 00:27:54.400 --> 00:27:56.519 that I would like the characters, the style, the music, 581 00:27:56.839 --> 00:28:00.240 and all that stuff. Hits so hard so many, like 582 00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:03.480 all Timer characters, Glottis is one of my favorites. 583 00:28:03.559 --> 00:28:03.680 Now. 584 00:28:04.200 --> 00:28:06.960 Every time I had any interaction with Glottis, who was 585 00:28:07.000 --> 00:28:09.119 like the big side kic character, I was just in love. 586 00:28:09.839 --> 00:28:13.000 And that doesn't that it really lives up to those 587 00:28:13.039 --> 00:28:15.319 expectations as well, like up through the end of the game, 588 00:28:15.359 --> 00:28:17.440 like when you first meet Gladish, I hope he's great, 589 00:28:17.480 --> 00:28:20.160 and he always is. And then it does a really 590 00:28:20.200 --> 00:28:24.039 good job of mimicking its source material that it's pulling from, 591 00:28:24.279 --> 00:28:26.480 where it's like, Okay, there are the twist and turns 592 00:28:26.519 --> 00:28:29.440 that you would expect from this sort of entangled war 593 00:28:29.839 --> 00:28:33.920 time love story that they're going for, and I felt like, Okay, 594 00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:36.319 they did that in a way that was like I 595 00:28:36.480 --> 00:28:38.799 wanted that, It's what I expected, and yet I was 596 00:28:38.799 --> 00:28:40.920 still surprised here or there, and it's like they just 597 00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:44.000 are really good writers over there at at what was 598 00:28:44.079 --> 00:28:44.759 Lucas Arts. 599 00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:49.440 Then and Shaeffer Double Find now. Yeah, yeah, it's this 600 00:28:49.559 --> 00:28:51.240 is still one of my favorite games ever. It was 601 00:28:51.279 --> 00:28:53.440 so much fun watching Jeff play through it. I'm so 602 00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:56.039 glad that he finished it. But yeah, it's like, you know, 603 00:28:56.319 --> 00:28:58.920 the puzzles in these games, like, yeah, they're puzzles and 604 00:28:59.160 --> 00:29:01.599 something you kind of figure but it's much less like 605 00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:05.160 playing you know, like an Obra Din or something like that, 606 00:29:05.240 --> 00:29:06.839 where it's like you sit down, you write me really 607 00:29:06.920 --> 00:29:10.039 largeically think about it. The puzzles often are actually like 608 00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:12.160 just like, hey, you got to figure stuff out, and 609 00:29:12.160 --> 00:29:15.319 now this is the mechanically came up with to force 610 00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:16.960 you to interact with as much of the world as 611 00:29:17.000 --> 00:29:19.640 possible so you can see all the fun characters and 612 00:29:19.759 --> 00:29:21.160 dialogue we create for you. 613 00:29:21.799 --> 00:29:23.200 Yeah, and that that was like the other thing where 614 00:29:23.240 --> 00:29:25.240 it's like, okay, yeah, I get another chance here to 615 00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:28.960 click on every line of dialogue or ask every question. 616 00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:30.839 And every time I got to one of those moments, 617 00:29:30.920 --> 00:29:33.519 I was like, oh, fantastic, We're back here where the 618 00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:36.960 game is truly shining. Manny's saying something sort of sardonic 619 00:29:37.119 --> 00:29:40.160 or dry or sarcastic, and the other character's not really 620 00:29:40.240 --> 00:29:42.319 catching on, and that's that's what he's saying. It's and 621 00:29:42.359 --> 00:29:46.240 then them having their own sort of personalities. It's really fantastic. 622 00:29:46.319 --> 00:29:47.039 I'm I'm glad. 623 00:29:47.160 --> 00:29:47.839 I glad. 624 00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:50.200 This is like my first real Lucas Arts adventure game 625 00:29:50.200 --> 00:29:51.839 that I spent a ton of time with. It really 626 00:29:51.960 --> 00:29:54.000 is a good entry way to that whole genre. 627 00:29:54.319 --> 00:29:57.440 Yeah, it has a ton of personality. I think Manny's 628 00:29:57.519 --> 00:30:00.279 just a great main character. I never want them to 629 00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:03.400 stop talking and cracking jokes and stuff when I play this, 630 00:30:03.640 --> 00:30:06.160 and I think I do think like we saw a 631 00:30:06.240 --> 00:30:11.519 touchdown though it is maybe one of the more The 632 00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:15.519 puzzles are a bit bit out there for Lucas game, 633 00:30:15.680 --> 00:30:18.880 like really making you click on everything and sort of 634 00:30:18.920 --> 00:30:22.720 just wander around for a while. I think that can 635 00:30:22.759 --> 00:30:25.359 get a little annoying if you don't want to get 636 00:30:25.440 --> 00:30:27.599 outside help. But if you do, you know, like you 637 00:30:27.640 --> 00:30:29.720 were screaming, I'm sure like if you got stuck, stuck, 638 00:30:29.759 --> 00:30:30.720 he asked the chat or something. 639 00:30:30.759 --> 00:30:33.039 I was just asking chat. Yep, no shame about it. 640 00:30:33.400 --> 00:30:35.839 Understand up a guy, you know, it's twenty twenty five, 641 00:30:35.920 --> 00:30:37.599 just pull up like a well ring guide or something. 642 00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:40.079 We're all doing that even in ninety eight.

It does 648 00:30:51.559 --> 00:30:54.240 make me want to like continue down this uh line 649 00:30:54.279 --> 00:30:56.640 a little bit. I was mentioned in to chat and 650 00:30:56.759 --> 00:30:59.200 telling Mike, I'm like, I might try to dig or 651 00:30:59.279 --> 00:31:02.839 a handful of Lucas, like what's the what's the motorcycle one. 652 00:31:03.079 --> 00:31:06.400 Throttle and the Digger because it's been so long since 653 00:31:06.400 --> 00:31:08.319 I played THO one that like I wouldn't be able 654 00:31:08.359 --> 00:31:09.799 to help you. It would all be new to me. 655 00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:11.599 In a big side, I would. 656 00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:13.160 Just play those games with the guide open. At this point, 657 00:31:13.279 --> 00:31:14.039 it was like, I'm. 658 00:31:13.920 --> 00:31:16.960 Totally sure we could play them together and figure it out. 659 00:31:17.039 --> 00:31:17.480 Yeah, we could. 660 00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:21.519 You want to look at a couple a couple of 661 00:31:21.559 --> 00:31:24.000 puzzle pals, Yeah, but there are also some other ones 662 00:31:24.039 --> 00:31:25.839 that I could like still guide you through data. 663 00:31:25.880 --> 00:31:29.039 Tentacle is so fantastic and so much and you know, 664 00:31:29.119 --> 00:31:31.519 the first three Monkey Allen games are must play, as 665 00:31:31.559 --> 00:31:34.400 I believe for this series, and they still hold up 666 00:31:34.400 --> 00:31:36.480 and they did those anniversary editions of one and two, 667 00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:38.960 so they're easy to play, and the gog version of 668 00:31:39.000 --> 00:31:40.359 Chris Monkey Allen works fine. 669 00:31:40.519 --> 00:31:42.519 So how are the Salmon Max games? 670 00:31:42.960 --> 00:31:44.640 Uh, well, the first Simon Max, I think is an 671 00:31:44.680 --> 00:31:46.640 al timer. I love Tim and Max Hit the Road. 672 00:31:46.759 --> 00:31:49.640 It's maybe the funniest one they ever did. I played 673 00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:52.440 through that again not too long ago. I never loved 674 00:31:52.519 --> 00:31:55.559 the Teltoe ones like some people did. They're they're good. 675 00:31:55.920 --> 00:31:57.720 I think part of my problem is is that I 676 00:31:57.920 --> 00:32:00.079 loved that original one so much, and you know, well 677 00:32:00.279 --> 00:32:02.640 the voices are a little different it. You know, it 678 00:32:02.720 --> 00:32:05.119 has kind of I don't call it an ugly game, 679 00:32:05.160 --> 00:32:07.000 but it has that three D like that sort of 680 00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:08.759 not cheap three D look, but kind of we're a 681 00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:11.079 little bit on a budget here three D look, as 682 00:32:11.079 --> 00:32:14.480 opposed to just very pretty pixel art like the original one. 683 00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:18.480 The name of that game Sean A Getter Love Choren 684 00:32:18.559 --> 00:32:19.960 I Party, Yeah, we're in. 685 00:32:20.039 --> 00:32:22.160 Chef Found and I was gonna crack up. It was 686 00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:25.880 actually Tokyo Mechi Memorial, like one of the most well known, 687 00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:29.119 revered visual novels of all time, and you're just like, yeah, 688 00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:30.480 it's some dangs and that they made. 689 00:32:31.119 --> 00:32:32.799 Well I would have felt the same way about that. 690 00:32:32.920 --> 00:32:35.720 Totally heard that word before Toki Memorial, but I have 691 00:32:35.839 --> 00:32:36.240 no idea. 692 00:32:36.640 --> 00:32:43.279 That's why I favored Final Stop on the Nostalgia Tour. Sean, 693 00:32:43.680 --> 00:32:47.160 you have been continuing to play Crazy Taxi three and 694 00:32:47.240 --> 00:32:49.359 it keeps surprising me that they made a third one. 695 00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:52.079 Yeah, well, Jan, I get that from you. You're not 696 00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:55.079 CT three guy. But when I brought this up in 697 00:32:55.079 --> 00:32:57.680 the chat the yard day, everyone basically had the same 698 00:32:57.720 --> 00:33:02.119 reaction of everyone was split between wait, they made crazy Tech, Hey, 699 00:33:02.160 --> 00:33:02.599 Mike has it? 700 00:33:02.680 --> 00:33:03.319 There, I have it. 701 00:33:03.519 --> 00:33:04.200 They did make it. 702 00:33:04.640 --> 00:33:08.039 Yeah, Basically everyone went, wait, they made a Crazy Taxi three. 703 00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:10.480 But then the other half of the audience was they 704 00:33:10.559 --> 00:33:15.680 made a Crazy Taxi two, which I did because yeah, 705 00:33:15.799 --> 00:33:18.880 that was I think Crazy Texti two is an arcade. 706 00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:20.200 I've never seen a machine, but I think it was 707 00:33:20.200 --> 00:33:22.720 an arcade. And then it was on the Dreamcast Crazy 708 00:33:22.799 --> 00:33:28.640 Taxi three wash Xbox exclusive, Like Mike just held up there, 709 00:33:29.039 --> 00:33:30.839 and then there was an arcade machine as well. 710 00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:32.119 You made the Dreamcast two. 711 00:33:33.079 --> 00:33:35.519 That's that's what it's getting that actually is like the 712 00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:38.839 Dreamcast lineage was basically split between a lot of people say, 713 00:33:38.880 --> 00:33:41.559 you know the Xbox is the Dreamcast two as well 714 00:33:41.599 --> 00:33:43.599 as like the GameCube galaat as well. You know, you 715 00:33:43.680 --> 00:33:46.480 got reports of Sock Adventure, you got Fancy Star Online, 716 00:33:46.640 --> 00:33:49.440 like they basically split their attention between those two consoles, 717 00:33:49.440 --> 00:33:51.759 and then PS two was in whatever they put most 718 00:33:51.759 --> 00:33:54.039 of the multi platform stuff there as well. But yeah, 719 00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:57.960 Crazy Taxi, like I keep mentioning, is just a fun 720 00:33:58.000 --> 00:34:00.920 trip down memory lane. I keep getting better and better runs. 721 00:34:01.599 --> 00:34:03.960 The other day in Crazy Taxi one, I finally got 722 00:34:04.000 --> 00:34:06.799 one over ten thousand dollars again, so that meant that 723 00:34:06.880 --> 00:34:09.039 I got the awesome rating, which felt good to get 724 00:34:09.119 --> 00:34:14.440 back to Crazy Taxi three. Though is I've never really 725 00:34:14.719 --> 00:34:17.960 played this before before, this little trip down memory lane 726 00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:21.639 here with Crazy Taxi, and that's because it was so inaccessible. 727 00:34:21.719 --> 00:34:24.360 It's not backwards campable on Xbox because you know, licensed 728 00:34:24.440 --> 00:34:29.000 music and all that, of course, but once again fans 729 00:34:29.039 --> 00:34:31.159 coming through. So at the theme of the games I've 730 00:34:31.199 --> 00:34:35.280 been playing lately. There's a tool called CT three Tweaks 731 00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:39.320 that allows you to just like make some changes some 732 00:34:39.440 --> 00:34:41.360 things about the back end of the PC version of 733 00:34:41.400 --> 00:34:43.760 the game, which you can find online. It's abandonware. It's 734 00:34:43.800 --> 00:34:46.400 never been released anywhere and it makes it so you 735 00:34:46.440 --> 00:34:49.119 can run out my machines, you can run at high resolutions, 736 00:34:49.199 --> 00:34:52.679 high frame rates, and odd stuff controller support, and what 737 00:34:53.000 --> 00:34:55.679 the game itself is is it's sort of a compilation. 738 00:34:55.760 --> 00:34:57.599 That's what Crazy Taxi two kind of was as well. 739 00:34:57.679 --> 00:35:00.599 But three is the map from one from two and 740 00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:02.840 then a new map for three, so it's only three maps, 741 00:35:02.880 --> 00:35:04.960 but it's start K game. Let's kind of expect of it. 742 00:35:05.440 --> 00:35:08.920 What's interesting is the mechanics how they work, and the 743 00:35:09.000 --> 00:35:12.199 fact that in addition to everything you know about Crazy Taxi, 744 00:35:12.519 --> 00:35:15.039 such as the Crazy Boost and the Crazy Drift, which 745 00:35:15.079 --> 00:35:18.360 are better than before, they really refined it so it 746 00:35:18.400 --> 00:35:22.320 feels really good. There's also Crazy Boost in reverse so 747 00:35:22.480 --> 00:35:25.239 you can go backwards on a dime, and the Crazy 748 00:35:25.519 --> 00:35:27.480 top I think it's called where you can do a 749 00:35:27.639 --> 00:35:30.519 tiny low jump, but it allows you to get over 750 00:35:30.679 --> 00:35:33.880 like short buildings, allows you to get extra air, you know, 751 00:35:34.000 --> 00:35:37.519 like in the original Crazy Taxi stage San Francisco where 752 00:35:37.519 --> 00:35:40.320 we're going down the hills, you get some extra air 753 00:35:40.400 --> 00:35:43.119 and get a bunch of money that way, as well 754 00:35:43.199 --> 00:35:46.599 as implementing stuff like pick you up multiple people at 755 00:35:46.639 --> 00:35:49.119 the same time from Crazy Taxi too, and so It 756 00:35:49.320 --> 00:35:52.800 just feels incredible to play with all those little additions, 757 00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:56.440 and it allows you to have longer runs. It feels 758 00:35:56.559 --> 00:35:59.719 more like a console first game. When you play Crazy 759 00:35:59.760 --> 00:36:02.559 tax it feels like the game, even though it's on 760 00:36:02.760 --> 00:36:05.760 your GameCube or your PC or whatever nowadays, is trying 761 00:36:05.760 --> 00:36:07.719 to get those quarters from you, is trying to like 762 00:36:07.800 --> 00:36:10.840 push you out. But Crazy Taxi three feels like a 763 00:36:11.000 --> 00:36:13.159 game where you don't even have to be that good 764 00:36:13.239 --> 00:36:15.679 the game to realistically have like a twenty plus minute 765 00:36:15.760 --> 00:36:19.199 run going, just keep going, keep listening to the tunes, 766 00:36:19.440 --> 00:36:23.280 keep have a fun time. Drive around this absolutely batshit 767 00:36:23.360 --> 00:36:26.880 crazy game that I still think is the epitome of 768 00:36:26.960 --> 00:36:30.679 one arcade game should be basically, and I'm having a blast, 769 00:36:30.760 --> 00:36:33.840 like getting better at it. It's kind of like I 770 00:36:33.920 --> 00:36:36.760 was mentioning with Bazarus, sort of just getting better with 771 00:36:36.920 --> 00:36:40.639 those runs. And you know, that's that's what a roguelike 772 00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:44.400 originally stems from, is just the arcade theory of video games, 773 00:36:44.440 --> 00:36:46.679 of having lives and doing runs, trying to get the 774 00:36:46.960 --> 00:36:48.840 best score you can games. 775 00:36:49.199 --> 00:36:54.440 Yeah, Sean, I will admit I've never truly loved Crazy 776 00:36:54.519 --> 00:36:58.400 Taxi anything against it, friendship, but I never I never 777 00:36:58.440 --> 00:36:59.920 fell in love with it the way so many people 778 00:37:00.199 --> 00:37:02.440 and it's like, at this point, it comes up so 779 00:37:02.599 --> 00:37:05.719 frequently and with such reverence, and then people play it 780 00:37:05.800 --> 00:37:09.239 and it's not like it's misguided nostalgia. Everyone genuinely loves 781 00:37:09.280 --> 00:37:12.320 this game. I feel like I missed out. So do 782 00:37:12.360 --> 00:37:14.239 you think Crazy Taxi three would be one? Like if 783 00:37:14.239 --> 00:37:16.159 I were to throw it in my steam Deck and 784 00:37:16.400 --> 00:37:17.840 play it on there and try to like get it, 785 00:37:18.039 --> 00:37:20.400 would this be the right like re entry point to 786 00:37:20.480 --> 00:37:21.920 go back and try to fall in love with the series? 787 00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:24.880 Yeah, especially once you get some of the further tweaks 788 00:37:25.039 --> 00:37:27.639 beyond CT three tweaks like someone and chat mentioned how 789 00:37:27.679 --> 00:37:30.119 are the tunes? And by default they're not good in 790 00:37:30.159 --> 00:37:33.119 the PC version. But again, community, you can just add 791 00:37:33.159 --> 00:37:36.559 in the original soundtracks from the og Xbox version and everything. Okay, 792 00:37:36.960 --> 00:37:38.960 yeah I can. I can like send you some links. 793 00:37:39.239 --> 00:37:42.000 I think this is That's actually how I've been playing. 794 00:37:42.039 --> 00:37:43.480 I've been playing on steam Deck. I just do a 795 00:37:43.519 --> 00:37:45.320 couple of months before bed each night, and you know 796 00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:46.920 that takes like half an hour to an hour, and 797 00:37:47.360 --> 00:37:51.159 it's maybe more energy than your typical line down game. 798 00:37:51.280 --> 00:37:53.599 But I do think it's a great way to just 799 00:37:53.719 --> 00:37:56.239 like chill and watch them TV and stuff, and yeah, 800 00:37:56.320 --> 00:37:57.480 try to get that better run. 801 00:37:58.039 --> 00:37:58.239 Yeah. 802 00:37:58.639 --> 00:38:01.159 Yeah, I was playing this version not too long my 803 00:38:01.239 --> 00:38:03.280 solf on when I had the Xbox plugged in and 804 00:38:03.360 --> 00:38:04.719 I kind of got a little bit of an og 805 00:38:05.000 --> 00:38:08.920 xbox kick. It's fantastic. I think it's the definitive crazy 806 00:38:09.039 --> 00:38:11.079 taxi game that we have, at least right now. We'll 807 00:38:11.079 --> 00:38:13.239 see what that new one is like, because yeah, you 808 00:38:13.320 --> 00:38:15.840 know it pass basically everything you want from the first 809 00:38:15.920 --> 00:38:18.800 one and that map that they added into right, but yeah, 810 00:38:18.840 --> 00:38:21.639 the new map here is Las Vegas themed, so that's 811 00:38:21.760 --> 00:38:24.360 really fun. That's of course a great place to say 812 00:38:24.400 --> 00:38:26.360 that you still have that those like those not those 813 00:38:26.400 --> 00:38:28.480 mini games with the challenge mode with you know, like 814 00:38:28.559 --> 00:38:32.519 get those crazy strikes and all that. Yeah crazy, I 815 00:38:32.599 --> 00:38:35.280 think they might have this might have been renamed too, Yeah, 816 00:38:35.480 --> 00:38:37.840 but boy, yeah Sega Saga. There a lot of heavy 817 00:38:37.920 --> 00:38:41.719 lifting on the OG Xbox. Uh you were talking about that, Shawn. 818 00:38:41.840 --> 00:38:46.440 But between this the outrun games, Jet Set Radio Future, 819 00:38:46.519 --> 00:38:49.360 even weird stuff like what otaggi and whatnot? 820 00:38:49.960 --> 00:38:50.719 Yes yet. 821 00:38:52.280 --> 00:38:52.559 As well? 822 00:38:53.320 --> 00:38:56.920 Yeah, yes, THEEKA was just doing Tota Gamno Three. Of course, 823 00:38:57.079 --> 00:38:59.360 I can't forget that but they are just doing a 824 00:38:59.400 --> 00:39:01.639 lot of cool stuff on the od Xbox. 825 00:39:01.960 --> 00:39:04.559 Yeah, very very cool lineage. 826 00:39:04.239 --> 00:39:07.760 There that they have going from making money on the 827 00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:11.000 streets to the high seas, high profits. Jeff Grubb. 828 00:39:12.079 --> 00:39:14.920 Yeah, so this is a game that just came out 829 00:39:14.920 --> 00:39:18.000 of early access. When I was playing, it was either 830 00:39:18.320 --> 00:39:21.960 early access or just coming out of early access. It 831 00:39:22.199 --> 00:39:27.480 is a turn based sid Meier's Pirates with some rough 832 00:39:27.559 --> 00:39:30.719 edges in terms of like the presentation. I was playing 833 00:39:30.760 --> 00:39:32.280 it on Steam Decks, so maybe some of the stuff 834 00:39:32.280 --> 00:39:35.000 that didn't happen on there, but like the mouse cursor, right, 835 00:39:35.079 --> 00:39:37.639 it's an animated little mouse cursor special for the game. Well, 836 00:39:37.880 --> 00:39:41.119 there's also like the transparency layer doesn't work, so there's 837 00:39:41.159 --> 00:39:44.679 like a white box around it or whatever. I'll live. 838 00:39:46.480 --> 00:39:49.800 You basically go from city to city buying low and 839 00:39:49.880 --> 00:39:52.119 then go to you do you set your boat to 840 00:39:52.199 --> 00:39:56.039 go to another city to then sell high. And it 841 00:39:56.239 --> 00:39:59.679 is a fully I guess I won't say fully realized 842 00:39:59.719 --> 00:40:04.119 echin simulation, but there are ramifications to everything you do. 843 00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:07.119 So when you go to a city and you get 844 00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:09.480 a list of goods, you're like, okay, I'm just gonna 845 00:40:09.599 --> 00:40:12.000 take my boat up to whatever This one port, and 846 00:40:12.079 --> 00:40:14.480 I'm gonna click on the shop. Let's start trading. You 847 00:40:14.639 --> 00:40:18.559 see how much everything costs to buy one You see 848 00:40:18.639 --> 00:40:20.719 how much everything cost. If you were to buy five 849 00:40:20.920 --> 00:40:23.920 of everything, it's usually much cheaper. And then you can 850 00:40:24.000 --> 00:40:27.000 also see like important details like how much it costs, 851 00:40:27.880 --> 00:40:31.119 like what was the price it costs the manufacturer to 852 00:40:31.159 --> 00:40:33.400 produce this item in the first place, so you can 853 00:40:33.440 --> 00:40:36.039 compare it to like what you're paying to like what 854 00:40:36.880 --> 00:40:39.840 actually the raw materials cost. So it's like, okay, let 855 00:40:39.920 --> 00:40:42.480 this thing cost them eighty bucks. They're charging me like 856 00:40:42.719 --> 00:40:45.920 one hundred and forty. That's a huge markup. I probably 857 00:40:45.920 --> 00:40:49.440 shouldn't buy that, But it's eighty bucks and you can 858 00:40:49.480 --> 00:40:51.840 get it for ninety five. All right, Well that's much 859 00:40:51.920 --> 00:40:54.639 more reasonable. I probably can turn a profit on that. 860 00:40:54.840 --> 00:40:54.960 Now. 861 00:40:55.000 --> 00:40:57.159 Of course, if it's eighty bucks to make and you 862 00:40:57.239 --> 00:41:00.079 can find it in one city for seventy bucks, well 863 00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:02.519 obviously you buy as much of that as you possibly can. 864 00:41:03.119 --> 00:41:06.159 Except every time you buy something, the price goes up 865 00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:08.960 because it's reacting to your to your behaviors, so you're 866 00:41:09.079 --> 00:41:11.599 you're feeding the economy. The demand is higher, So now 867 00:41:11.639 --> 00:41:14.480 you have to like consider that and it's like, hmm, 868 00:41:14.639 --> 00:41:16.360 this is exactly the kind of game that I want. 869 00:41:16.400 --> 00:41:18.519 I want to play around in economic models. That's what 870 00:41:18.599 --> 00:41:20.639 I always liked about sid meers Pirates. A lot of 871 00:41:20.719 --> 00:41:23.000 that your A lot of that stuff was happening in 872 00:41:23.039 --> 00:41:25.719 the background or unaffected by your behaviors, but it was 873 00:41:25.800 --> 00:41:29.000 like randomly being affected by something that was supposed to 874 00:41:29.000 --> 00:41:31.880 be modeling a wider, broader economy as opposed to just 875 00:41:32.000 --> 00:41:34.199 one ship coming into port and buying stuff and affecting 876 00:41:34.239 --> 00:41:36.400 the price. But at the end of the day, it's 877 00:41:36.440 --> 00:41:39.800 pretty similar stuff. Now I'm not sure what else is 878 00:41:39.880 --> 00:41:42.159 happening in this game, because when I'm kind of going 879 00:41:42.199 --> 00:41:46.679 through the tutorial and in sid meers Pirates you get 880 00:41:46.719 --> 00:41:49.880 in ship combat. In it, it's real time, and that 881 00:41:50.079 --> 00:41:52.440 was actually pretty decent, and you could upgrade your ship 882 00:41:52.480 --> 00:41:54.760 and get different kinds of things you were shooting out 883 00:41:54.760 --> 00:41:56.639 of the cannons. So it's like, Okay, I'm gonna shoot 884 00:41:56.639 --> 00:42:00.920 these grape appellates to tear up the enemies sales so 885 00:42:01.000 --> 00:42:03.000 they can't chase me or whatever. You can make decisions 886 00:42:03.079 --> 00:42:06.199 like that. You would go and meet governors and have 887 00:42:06.320 --> 00:42:08.440 conversations with them and try to marry their daughters and 888 00:42:08.519 --> 00:42:10.800 you try to marry the prettiest daughter you could find, 889 00:42:10.840 --> 00:42:12.639 and all that stuff. There was more going on at 890 00:42:12.679 --> 00:42:15.639 sid Meier's Pirates. I haven't interacted with all of or 891 00:42:15.719 --> 00:42:18.199 any of those kinds of elements so far, so I'm 892 00:42:18.199 --> 00:42:21.599 wondering if they've focused entirely on the you know, buying 893 00:42:21.679 --> 00:42:25.119 and selling, the arbitrage selling of it all as opposed 894 00:42:25.159 --> 00:42:27.599 to those other elements, which I wouldn't be against, but 895 00:42:27.719 --> 00:42:29.639 I definitely want to have that flavor there to make 896 00:42:29.719 --> 00:42:32.000 it feel like, Hey, I am a gentleman of the 897 00:42:32.119 --> 00:42:34.519 high seas and I just happen to have this business 898 00:42:34.559 --> 00:42:37.199 that I run in the background. That's really my primary concern. 899 00:42:37.679 --> 00:42:39.760 But you know, when I present myself to the governor, 900 00:42:39.800 --> 00:42:41.320 I have these other things going on, and I can 901 00:42:41.559 --> 00:42:44.599 kind of role play a little bit, but you know, 902 00:42:44.719 --> 00:42:47.440 kind of the game itself is what I've been looking for. 903 00:42:48.000 --> 00:42:50.480 I just hope that they have the juice to make 904 00:42:50.559 --> 00:42:53.199 it last and it doesn't feel like, oh I kind 905 00:42:53.199 --> 00:42:55.960 of understood, Like, I hope the economic model that they're 906 00:42:56.079 --> 00:42:59.880 using behind the engine is complicated enough that I can 907 00:43:00.079 --> 00:43:02.920 maybe like have fun pairying with it as opposed to 908 00:43:02.920 --> 00:43:04.360 being like, oh, I kind of get this. If I 909 00:43:04.440 --> 00:43:06.800 just sell here by there, I'm always gonna win. And 910 00:43:06.880 --> 00:43:08.400 I don't know if that's the case yet. 911 00:43:09.400 --> 00:43:16.199 Speaking about numbers, I've been immersed in any factory with numbers. 912 00:43:17.039 --> 00:43:19.960 I talked about this a couple of weeks ago on 913 00:43:20.079 --> 00:43:22.679 the podcast Nubbies Number Factory. 914 00:43:23.000 --> 00:43:24.840 Right, you're the one that mentioned this. I downloaded. I 915 00:43:24.880 --> 00:43:26.559 haven't played this. Remind me what this is. 916 00:43:27.079 --> 00:43:34.199 This is a fever dream of a flash game. But Pegel, right, 917 00:43:34.880 --> 00:43:38.599 there have been so many different Pegel likes to pop 918 00:43:38.679 --> 00:43:42.840 out after Pegel one, Pedal two, uh, Peglin I never 919 00:43:42.920 --> 00:43:45.400 quite got into. I think the RPG mechanics of it 920 00:43:45.800 --> 00:43:49.440 has got in the way, uh for for my own preferences. 921 00:43:49.840 --> 00:43:54.320 But Nubbi's Number Factory, the gist of it again is 922 00:43:54.480 --> 00:43:57.559 you have a general target to hit, uh, and that 923 00:43:58.159 --> 00:44:01.159 that is a number, and the pegs on the board 924 00:44:01.400 --> 00:44:04.719 equate as you hit them, they add up. You get 925 00:44:04.760 --> 00:44:08.480 to that target number. Now, if you keep hitting a 926 00:44:08.639 --> 00:44:11.800 peg that it disappears like say it's a it says 927 00:44:11.800 --> 00:44:14.039 the number two, and you hit it twice, it disappears, 928 00:44:14.599 --> 00:44:17.639 it reracks and then adds up, So it's kind of 929 00:44:17.719 --> 00:44:20.840 a it becomes a numbers game of not only do 930 00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:23.280 you want to hit the high target number, but you 931 00:44:23.440 --> 00:44:26.400 also want to clear all the lower pegs so they 932 00:44:26.480 --> 00:44:29.559 add up to so you get nothing but high numbered pegs. 933 00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:36.639 And then the game gets incredibly weird because it adds 934 00:44:37.880 --> 00:44:43.239 items to buy, and those items range from when Nubby dies, 935 00:44:43.880 --> 00:44:46.480 So when Nubby falls off the board. I'm sorry, Mike, 936 00:44:46.480 --> 00:44:51.000 I didn't mean to spoil it. No, when Nubby dies 937 00:44:51.199 --> 00:44:55.559 like an effect your item pops off, or when you 938 00:44:55.719 --> 00:45:02.559 first fire Nubby off onto the board or whatever. Don't worry, Mike, 939 00:45:02.800 --> 00:45:08.480 you get more nubbies if you clear the boards Nubbies 940 00:45:08.519 --> 00:45:13.559 for Mikeys. You get more Nubbies if you clear the 941 00:45:13.800 --> 00:45:17.559 board on your first go. And depending on how well 942 00:45:17.599 --> 00:45:21.159 you perform uh and you re rack and stuff and 943 00:45:21.599 --> 00:45:24.079 you clear the pegs out, you will get more lives. 944 00:45:25.800 --> 00:45:29.920 It is such an insane time, Oyster, and I think 945 00:45:29.960 --> 00:45:33.519 I'm really bad at the game though, because on top 946 00:45:33.559 --> 00:45:36.440 of that, you you get a loot, and those the 947 00:45:36.559 --> 00:45:41.280 loot affects not only your specific items, but also just 948 00:45:41.400 --> 00:45:44.440 like different conditions on the board. There are like boss 949 00:45:44.559 --> 00:45:49.920 encounters and and yeah, I quickly find myself falling into 950 00:45:49.960 --> 00:45:53.199 the same trap I did with Billottro from last year 951 00:45:54.400 --> 00:45:57.719 and and Nubbies number Factory. I yearn for the factory. 952 00:45:57.840 --> 00:45:59.280 Now you yearn for the Nubbies. 953 00:45:59.760 --> 00:46:02.360 Yeah. I saw a friend like fill up her board 954 00:46:02.519 --> 00:46:05.519 and it was just nothing but like ten thousand for 955 00:46:05.679 --> 00:46:09.280 each individual peg. And here I am like a dope 956 00:46:09.800 --> 00:46:12.360 with like, oh hey cool, the highest peg I have 957 00:46:12.559 --> 00:46:14.360 is five hundred and twelve. I'm so good. 958 00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:18.519 Oh fuck, I mean I'm I just bought this game 959 00:46:18.840 --> 00:46:21.800 largely because I find the aesthetic of it looking like 960 00:46:22.000 --> 00:46:27.440 a I don't know, nineteen ninety eight website game. Yeah, 961 00:46:27.440 --> 00:46:32.000 so appeal, like so surprisingly nostalgic to be you. 962 00:46:32.360 --> 00:46:35.679 The developer's website it looks like a nineteen ninety eight 963 00:46:35.800 --> 00:46:36.599 website as well. 964 00:46:36.719 --> 00:46:37.960 Mob Dog Productions. 965 00:46:38.000 --> 00:46:40.559 I said it before, if I if we had unlimited 966 00:46:40.599 --> 00:46:43.519 budget in time, I would remake the Giant Bomb web 967 00:46:43.639 --> 00:46:45.039 website to look exactly like this. 968 00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:46.079 That's what I would do. 969 00:46:46.519 --> 00:46:49.679 But not, Oh my god, Yes, I want our video 970 00:46:49.840 --> 00:46:52.920 player to have like a shitty TV on yes in 971 00:46:53.000 --> 00:46:53.320 front of you? 972 00:46:53.480 --> 00:46:56.039 Yeah, or just it actually does only work in real 973 00:46:56.159 --> 00:46:58.079 media player? Yeah, right time. 974 00:46:58.480 --> 00:47:01.679 Yeah, it is cool to see games like this popping 975 00:47:01.719 --> 00:47:03.880 off a little bit though. I pulled up the Steam page. Yeah, 976 00:47:03.960 --> 00:47:06.119 came out about a month ago. It's one of those 977 00:47:06.239 --> 00:47:09.880 games that, yeah it's five bucks, overwhelmingly positive with like 978 00:47:09.960 --> 00:47:13.679 close to thirty six hundred reviews. I like to see 979 00:47:13.760 --> 00:47:16.679 more projects like this. I think that's sort of the 980 00:47:16.840 --> 00:47:18.840 kind of theme of what I was talking about today, 981 00:47:18.920 --> 00:47:22.480 of just seeing these smaller projects, these indie projects, these 982 00:47:22.559 --> 00:47:27.840 just real passion projects put out there and really taking 983 00:47:27.920 --> 00:47:31.400 off with people, because I think that's you know, we're 984 00:47:31.480 --> 00:47:35.199 in an age of a lack of sustainability in gaming 985 00:47:35.360 --> 00:47:37.639 right now, and I do think that this is the 986 00:47:37.760 --> 00:47:39.320 kind of thing that I want to see more of. 987 00:47:39.400 --> 00:47:41.719 I want to see the industry move and direction that 988 00:47:41.960 --> 00:47:44.360 is smaller. You don't have to get as small as 989 00:47:44.440 --> 00:47:47.760 Nubby's Number factory necessarily, but it is cool to see 990 00:47:47.920 --> 00:47:52.159 people appreciate something like this and say that, yeah, you 991 00:47:52.199 --> 00:47:54.960 know what, I can't just so what if it's a 992 00:47:55.119 --> 00:47:58.280 time wast you know, not that you were saying that disparagingly, 993 00:47:58.639 --> 00:48:01.679 but yeah, who if it's just like, yeah, I sit down, 994 00:48:01.719 --> 00:48:03.480 I play this for like an hour or two, like 995 00:48:03.599 --> 00:48:06.480 every night while I'm you know, watching the Food Network 996 00:48:06.599 --> 00:48:08.960 or whatever, and just big chilling and that's. 997 00:48:08.920 --> 00:48:12.760 What gaming needs for watching me at home dog, Hey man, 998 00:48:12.840 --> 00:48:13.280 you leave the. 999 00:48:13.280 --> 00:48:15.440 Camera on this here fault. I just think that it's 1000 00:48:15.559 --> 00:48:19.840 really sick that people are appreciating these small releases. 1001 00:48:20.199 --> 00:48:23.760 Yeah, we'll talk about a small release during the news segment. Actually, 1002 00:48:25.360 --> 00:48:27.800 but I'm in need of a coffee break, Mike Minati, 1003 00:48:28.599 --> 00:48:32.559 can you like quickly guide me though to this Disney 1004 00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:35.079 villain's cursed cafe and what I can order? 1005 00:48:35.440 --> 00:48:37.760 Yeah, it's funny because like Sean's talking about, like, you know, 1006 00:48:37.840 --> 00:48:40.519 making smaller games. I think this is so neat that 1007 00:48:40.760 --> 00:48:46.159 Disney sort of got this small developer balloon Digital Media 1008 00:48:46.199 --> 00:48:48.519 that does just make you know, what looks like a 1009 00:48:48.599 --> 00:48:51.840 bunch of visual novels right there, visual novel studio. It's like, yeah, 1010 00:48:51.880 --> 00:48:55.000 make one of those. But for us, the whole thing 1011 00:48:55.079 --> 00:48:59.119 here is that you run this magical cafe that is 1012 00:48:59.199 --> 00:49:05.239 patronized by a bunch of yassified Disney villains right like there, 1013 00:49:05.480 --> 00:49:08.559 it's like, you know, Gastan and Ursula and Maleficent, but 1014 00:49:08.599 --> 00:49:10.400 they're wearing slightly modern clothes. 1015 00:49:10.599 --> 00:49:13.039 Oh you king what? Yeah? 1016 00:49:13.159 --> 00:49:15.960 Yeah, they're all so slutty in this game is crazy. 1017 00:49:16.719 --> 00:49:19.119 Yeah, it's a visual novel, right like the you know 1018 00:49:19.199 --> 00:49:23.000 the gameplay, OMNS is picking different dialogue options, and you know, 1019 00:49:23.079 --> 00:49:25.960 when they order a drink or potion rather and they 1020 00:49:26.000 --> 00:49:28.480 are all different magical effects. It's sometimes they want something 1021 00:49:28.519 --> 00:49:31.480 very specific. It's some of the gamified stuff there as well, 1022 00:49:31.920 --> 00:49:34.079 maybe what they actually need is something else, or you 1023 00:49:34.119 --> 00:49:35.960 can just give them the wrong thing and they get mad. 1024 00:49:36.039 --> 00:49:39.159 So there's a bit of sort of branching narrative stuff 1025 00:49:39.559 --> 00:49:41.880 happening there, but mostly it is just about this sort 1026 00:49:41.880 --> 00:49:44.559 of fun dialogue. And the dialogue is actually pretty fun. 1027 00:49:44.920 --> 00:49:49.280 It's surprisingly funny. Like Ja'far was like, oh, how do 1028 00:49:49.400 --> 00:49:52.159 I how do I rule this world? And I was like, oh, 1029 00:49:52.239 --> 00:49:54.119 you gotta be in the one percent was the one 1030 00:49:54.239 --> 00:49:57.719 dialogue option I'm talking about. So I'm talking about capitalism 1031 00:49:57.840 --> 00:50:01.239 Jafar in this game. And then like it just kept 1032 00:50:01.320 --> 00:50:05.440 going to eventually I was explaining cryptocurrency to Jafar. Oh 1033 00:50:05.800 --> 00:50:10.159 hell yeah, oh yeah. Jafar started his own coin. It's 1034 00:50:10.199 --> 00:50:14.719 called wish coin. Yeah, well he's got witschcoin. 1035 00:50:14.800 --> 00:50:14.920 Now. 1036 00:50:15.400 --> 00:50:19.119 He loved the idea not real money that people will 1037 00:50:19.159 --> 00:50:22.199 pay him for anyways, So yeah, he gave me a 1038 00:50:22.239 --> 00:50:24.559 stone and said it was a physical representation of my 1039 00:50:25.239 --> 00:50:28.360 virtual wish coin wish with why by the way, he said, 1040 00:50:28.440 --> 00:50:32.400 for copyright reasons, Uh, yeah, exactly. 1041 00:50:32.800 --> 00:50:32.840 So. 1042 00:50:32.960 --> 00:50:37.519 Yeah, the dialog is actually kind of funny and it's interesting. Yeah, 1043 00:50:37.559 --> 00:50:39.239 you know, for a Disney head like me, it is 1044 00:50:39.320 --> 00:50:42.679 just fun seeing these characters like this. But boy, I 1045 00:50:42.760 --> 00:50:45.800 just think this is a really neat project. I know, 1046 00:50:45.840 --> 00:50:47.920 you know, John Drake's a friend to say everything, but 1047 00:50:48.199 --> 00:50:50.480 as a Disney fan, I really do approve of the 1048 00:50:50.559 --> 00:50:53.480 way that they've been kind of approaching games recently, where 1049 00:50:53.599 --> 00:50:55.880 they're doing a good mix of things, and that includes 1050 00:50:56.039 --> 00:51:00.119 this kind of tiny project from this small studio that 1051 00:51:00.239 --> 00:51:03.280 specializes in a niche genre. But hey, we're gonna let 1052 00:51:03.320 --> 00:51:05.519 them play with the Disney license. I think that's great. 1053 00:51:06.119 --> 00:51:06.519 That's cool. 1054 00:51:07.159 --> 00:51:07.320 Mike. 1055 00:51:07.400 --> 00:51:10.280 Did you ever play like Coffee Talk or Nirvana or 1056 00:51:10.360 --> 00:51:10.960 anything like that. 1057 00:51:11.199 --> 00:51:11.239 No? 1058 00:51:11.519 --> 00:51:15.079 Not, Okay, that's definitely I think what this game is 1059 00:51:15.159 --> 00:51:19.159 going for. Coffee Talk was a game where you run 1060 00:51:19.440 --> 00:51:22.599 a You run a coffee shop. You are the barista. 1061 00:51:22.800 --> 00:51:25.360 Someone comes in asks for an order. You just it's 1062 00:51:25.480 --> 00:51:28.559 very simple. You mix like a possible like eight different 1063 00:51:28.639 --> 00:51:30.519 ingredients together in the way that they want them, and 1064 00:51:30.599 --> 00:51:34.159 then you just get a visual novel style branching dialogue 1065 00:51:34.480 --> 00:51:36.239 thing where you can't just get to know the people 1066 00:51:36.320 --> 00:51:40.280 better and just a chill little thing and before same thing. 1067 00:51:40.559 --> 00:51:42.159 That sounds like the vibe here for sure. 1068 00:51:42.199 --> 00:51:45.079 Okay, cool, that makes me kind of interested. I will say, 1069 00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:47.239 I think I'm at the point where I would I 1070 00:51:47.599 --> 00:51:49.320 this is only on PC right now, right. 1071 00:51:49.519 --> 00:51:51.320 It's actually on every twitch, It's everything. 1072 00:51:51.599 --> 00:51:54.480 It was it was a Intel Direct but like outside 1073 00:51:54.480 --> 00:51:56.400 of those, it's switching PC right now. 1074 00:51:56.440 --> 00:52:00.239 It's like it's Xbox and PlayStation even, it's everywhere, okay where, 1075 00:52:00.320 --> 00:52:02.840 but sorry, I was getting actually alive with this. 1076 00:52:03.480 --> 00:52:04.559 It's not mobile, is it? 1077 00:52:05.079 --> 00:52:07.119 I was think it's I don't think it's on mobile, 1078 00:52:07.159 --> 00:52:09.639 And now I'm not sure why when you asked me that, Yeah. 1079 00:52:09.920 --> 00:52:12.280 Okay, yeah, because I feel like this would be like 1080 00:52:12.360 --> 00:52:15.519 great Apple Arcade kind of thing. Oh for sure, I 1081 00:52:15.559 --> 00:52:19.679 would love to play that. Oh also, chats pointing out 1082 00:52:19.800 --> 00:52:22.960 I meant Valhalla. Nirvana's the sequel that's coming out. 1083 00:52:23.000 --> 00:52:27.679 But yeah, right, all right, folks. Now that Mikey talked 1084 00:52:27.719 --> 00:52:32.239 about brewing some potions, I'm gonna brew a quick cup 1085 00:52:32.519 --> 00:52:35.400 of Joe and we'll be back about. 1086 00:52:35.239 --> 00:52:37.239 The Psycho patrol Our next week.

Yeah, I'll 1089 00:52:43.840 --> 00:52:45.199 check that out next week. I know people were asking 1090 00:52:45.239 --> 00:52:45.519 about it. 1091 00:52:45.800 --> 00:52:48.280 Oh.

They've got plenty of merch 1116 00:53:59.760 --> 00:54:04.239 for you. They've got some character redesigns, like, hey, we've upgrade, 1117 00:54:04.239 --> 00:54:07.039 We've improved the textures on these character models. And then 1118 00:54:07.119 --> 00:54:11.960 they said they will have various projects. Is Final Fantasy 1119 00:54:12.039 --> 00:54:13.440 nine remake finally happening? 1120 00:54:14.119 --> 00:54:15.039 Oh sure? 1121 00:54:15.280 --> 00:54:15.480 Yeah? 1122 00:54:15.840 --> 00:54:19.360 So, I mean it wasn't that Nvidia leak forever ago? 1123 00:54:19.559 --> 00:54:21.639 Yeah, Chris Prophecy, Yeah, so. 1124 00:54:21.719 --> 00:54:24.360 Many things have happened from that that we're there, including 1125 00:54:24.400 --> 00:54:26.159 like keendom Heart's four said, I think that's the first 1126 00:54:26.159 --> 00:54:28.679 time we saw that. A couple of things that we 1127 00:54:28.800 --> 00:54:32.320 haven't seen is the fount Fantasy nine remake and Final 1128 00:54:32.400 --> 00:54:37.519 Fantasy Tactics also, right, Yeah, but yeah, I mean, look, 1129 00:54:37.920 --> 00:54:40.320 it's not outside of the Rome possibility that this is 1130 00:54:40.519 --> 00:54:43.199 just a marketing campaign and this is just all about 1131 00:54:43.400 --> 00:54:47.559 selling merch and things like that. But boy, this, you know, 1132 00:54:47.719 --> 00:54:49.599 this site is kind of already a bit more lapid 1133 00:54:49.639 --> 00:54:51.920 than I was expecting. There's a lot of stuff here 1134 00:54:51.960 --> 00:54:56.199 they're talking about projects. This thing's been rumored anyways. Uh, 1135 00:54:56.719 --> 00:54:59.000 and we you know, we have a pretty big event 1136 00:54:59.159 --> 00:55:04.119 happening and just a day here. And boy, it's far 1137 00:55:04.119 --> 00:55:07.599 from a guarantee, but that Nintendo switch to direct show 1138 00:55:07.639 --> 00:55:10.320 would be a cool place to reveal the Final Fantasy 1139 00:55:10.480 --> 00:55:11.199 nine remake. 1140 00:55:11.679 --> 00:55:15.280 Whoa, And we're not talking like remake in terms of 1141 00:55:15.360 --> 00:55:21.480 Final Fantasy. It's just like kind of like a like facelift. 1142 00:55:21.320 --> 00:55:24.599 Well a bit more than that, right, Like I imagine 1143 00:55:25.480 --> 00:55:28.880 something in that persona three reload areas what I think 1144 00:55:28.960 --> 00:55:32.679 where relative rolative one to one. But you know, completely 1145 00:55:32.760 --> 00:55:36.639 new assets. You know here there would be voice acting, right, 1146 00:55:37.239 --> 00:55:40.639 new CG cut scenes, you know, maybe even a bit 1147 00:55:40.719 --> 00:55:43.320 more than that in some sense, because this is a 1148 00:55:43.400 --> 00:55:47.000 PS one game that we're remaking here, right, So but no, 1149 00:55:47.280 --> 00:55:49.719 I think I bet it'll still be like that classic 1150 00:55:49.760 --> 00:55:52.800 combat system, right. It's not going to be completely remagic, 1151 00:55:52.920 --> 00:55:55.440 certainly isn't going to be turned into a trilogy and 1152 00:55:55.880 --> 00:55:59.719 have all these sort of weird multi dimensional aspects or 1153 00:56:00.079 --> 00:56:05.000 or whatever. I think it'll be more straightforward, but remake 1154 00:56:05.000 --> 00:56:05.440 none the less. 1155 00:56:05.519 --> 00:56:07.400 Yeah, I f F seven messed it up for the 1156 00:56:07.480 --> 00:56:11.239 sake of marketing. Clever marketing I'll give them, but that's 1157 00:56:11.320 --> 00:56:14.880 not a remake as a reimagining that as a new project. 1158 00:56:15.039 --> 00:56:17.800 Yeah, or it's like, you know, remake with like a 1159 00:56:17.920 --> 00:56:19.480 wink when you say remake. 1160 00:56:19.360 --> 00:56:21.920 Like yeah, yeah, no the P three reload and then 1161 00:56:22.039 --> 00:56:25.159 you know, way back in the day stuff like uh, 1162 00:56:25.760 --> 00:56:28.239 well what the Resident Evil games do? Even like two 1163 00:56:28.400 --> 00:56:30.880 is pushing it, but yeah, like R one remake, are 1164 00:56:31.039 --> 00:56:31.679 four remake? 1165 00:56:31.760 --> 00:56:33.519 Yeah yeah, I think like, yeah, the R E one 1166 00:56:33.679 --> 00:56:36.000 R four remake is even yeah, that's maybe a good 1167 00:56:36.320 --> 00:56:39.360 idea of what kind of remake. I am expecting it, 1168 00:56:39.440 --> 00:56:43.719 and you know, to be clear, so excited. I love 1169 00:56:43.840 --> 00:56:46.719 Final Fantasy nine so much. I like the series a ton, 1170 00:56:47.280 --> 00:56:50.079 and this is most likely my favorite of those single 1171 00:56:50.119 --> 00:56:53.480 player games even oh yeah. It just has such a 1172 00:56:53.639 --> 00:56:56.719 striking art style that that's shown through even on the 1173 00:56:56.800 --> 00:56:59.960 PS one it was maybe the prettiest PS one game. 1174 00:57:00.199 --> 00:57:03.199 Of course, there's incredible music, there always is, but gosh, 1175 00:57:03.239 --> 00:57:07.639 there's some good songs in this one. Great characters. Vv 1176 00:57:07.920 --> 00:57:11.719 vv is such a good voy vv is the bestest 1177 00:57:11.920 --> 00:57:15.679 boy that was ever boyed bool And it's just like 1178 00:57:15.760 --> 00:57:18.480 the story goes interesting places. It has a lot of 1179 00:57:18.599 --> 00:57:20.800 hearts in it, but there are also like some things 1180 00:57:20.840 --> 00:57:25.719 that could be improved. Maybe some of the late stuff 1181 00:57:25.760 --> 00:57:27.800 with the plot could be smoothed out a bit. There 1182 00:57:27.840 --> 00:57:29.840 are some party members who get a little bit lost 1183 00:57:29.880 --> 00:57:31.480 in the shuffle towards the end. I would like to 1184 00:57:31.519 --> 00:57:35.760 see them maybe given more things to do in the story. 1185 00:57:35.800 --> 00:57:39.199 You have more sections devoted to them. So yeah, the 1186 00:57:39.280 --> 00:57:42.800 idea of just revisiting Final Fancy nine and maybe doing 1187 00:57:42.840 --> 00:57:46.039 some kind of super definitive version of it or whatever 1188 00:57:46.159 --> 00:57:48.280 they are up to, I'm just super excited see it. 1189 00:57:48.360 --> 00:57:51.719 My only concern is the voice casting, because before when 1190 00:57:51.760 --> 00:57:53.920 they've given voices to some of these characters and things 1191 00:57:54.000 --> 00:57:58.360 like Decidia, even vv's voice at Keenomortes two, I'm always like, 1192 00:57:59.400 --> 00:58:01.840 these aren't the plice as I imagine for these characters. 1193 00:58:02.199 --> 00:58:04.639 Those are also very much projects where it's like who 1194 00:58:04.719 --> 00:58:07.239 can we get on this character? You know, it's like 1195 00:58:07.360 --> 00:58:08.480 how they are fast? 1196 00:58:09.000 --> 00:58:13.039 Yeah, hey, don't you dare smirch the name of Lansby 1197 00:58:13.400 --> 00:58:13.760 killed it? 1198 00:58:14.119 --> 00:58:14.440 Of course. 1199 00:58:15.039 --> 00:58:17.440 Yeah, there's fun. There's some fun mini games, so you 1200 00:58:17.679 --> 00:58:21.519 joke abou Tetra Master the card game here was never 1201 00:58:21.719 --> 00:58:24.480 nearly as well liked as Triple Try it, But here's 1202 00:58:24.480 --> 00:58:26.119 a point here to edit it a bit, or. 1203 00:58:26.119 --> 00:58:28.920 You know what, let's just put Queen's blood in this too. 1204 00:58:29.159 --> 00:58:31.079 What the he That was great? 1205 00:58:33.079 --> 00:58:36.320 Yeah, so we'll maybe get the answer to the question 1206 00:58:36.519 --> 00:58:38.719 hanging in the air about Final Fantasy nine tomorrow or 1207 00:58:38.880 --> 00:58:40.840 maybe not at all, maybe not the rest of this year. 1208 00:58:40.880 --> 00:58:44.599 Maybe it doesn't happen. I would bet on it probably happening, though. 1209 00:58:44.519 --> 00:58:46.920 Oh if you want to hop off everybody. 1210 00:58:47.320 --> 00:58:50.000 Yeah, now that we're in you know, kind of hype 1211 00:58:50.199 --> 00:58:54.199 hype camp and we're thinking about Final Fantasy perhaps nine, 1212 00:58:54.400 --> 00:59:00.280 perhaps the tactics tactics advance, rob what's the likelihood of, uh, 1213 00:59:01.480 --> 00:59:06.320 you know, another Square property that bridges the gap with 1214 00:59:06.840 --> 00:59:13.800 another big company, perhaps Disney, maybe a Kingdom Hearts four. 1215 00:59:15.000 --> 00:59:16.960 It's been a minute since we've seen anything from Kingdom 1216 00:59:16.960 --> 00:59:18.920 Hearts four, right, that was years ago. 1217 00:59:19.119 --> 00:59:23.239 Now it was years ago basically since that first reveal. 1218 00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:26.400 I don't think we've seen too much more about it. 1219 00:59:26.679 --> 00:59:27.760 Yeah, that was a hot man. 1220 00:59:27.840 --> 00:59:30.000 What was it like three years ago at this point. 1221 00:59:30.239 --> 00:59:32.000 Probably, And at the time I was like, Wow, this 1222 00:59:32.119 --> 00:59:34.079 is happening sooner than I thought. Who knows, maybe this 1223 00:59:34.159 --> 00:59:35.880 gime will be out like kind of soon. It's like, oh, no, 1224 00:59:36.000 --> 00:59:38.639 they did just announce that pretty I thought they wouldn't 1225 00:59:38.639 --> 00:59:41.039 announce the Kingdom Hearts super early again because they announced 1226 00:59:41.079 --> 00:59:47.119 Kingdom Hearts three so early. It was announced in April 1227 00:59:47.239 --> 00:59:49.920 twenty twenty two, so three yeah, three years ago, homest 1228 00:59:49.960 --> 00:59:50.800 exactly three years ago. 1229 00:59:52.000 --> 00:59:54.800 To be fair, I think Sweary Next has learned their 1230 00:59:54.920 --> 00:59:58.599 lesson a bit about ambitiously announcing a title as not 1231 00:59:58.760 --> 01:00:00.920 ready at all and they just have trailer for it. 1232 01:00:01.079 --> 01:00:05.480 So yeah, I think that game probably does perk up 1233 01:00:05.519 --> 01:00:08.840 again this year. There's a good chance of that. Assume 1234 01:00:09.039 --> 01:00:12.440 that's not in any kind of trouble, right exactly, Yes, 1235 01:00:12.639 --> 01:00:17.159 all things being even, And I mean I bet Squerenix 1236 01:00:17.159 --> 01:00:19.280 wouldn't hate the idea of that showing up in a 1237 01:00:19.440 --> 01:00:22.199 Nintendo direct, especially if they kind of aim it at 1238 01:00:22.239 --> 01:00:24.480 the switch to I think that's going to be Squerenix's 1239 01:00:24.559 --> 01:00:26.480 kind of move here for the next little bit is 1240 01:00:27.039 --> 01:00:30.000 try to position most things as a switch to game 1241 01:00:30.199 --> 01:00:32.519 and then put them on everything else as well at 1242 01:00:32.559 --> 01:00:34.960 the same time. And I think that that could answer 1243 01:00:35.039 --> 01:00:36.559 so or that could solve some of the problems they 1244 01:00:36.599 --> 01:00:39.079 had with Final Fantasy being locked down on PlayStation people, 1245 01:00:39.159 --> 01:00:40.960 not really everywhere, because we kind of. 1246 01:00:40.960 --> 01:00:43.480 Saw what happen when they almost position themselves as like 1247 01:00:43.920 --> 01:00:47.199 a PlayStation quote unquote second party for a while there 1248 01:00:47.320 --> 01:00:50.039 in these early PS five days, in late PS four days, 1249 01:00:51.039 --> 01:00:53.480 you know, there's a a certain point you're limiting the audience. 1250 01:00:53.519 --> 01:00:54.960 Those people are going to find the game too. 1251 01:00:55.440 --> 01:00:55.599 You know. 1252 01:00:55.719 --> 01:00:58.119 Switch To is this opportunity where so many more of 1253 01:00:58.199 --> 01:01:00.559 your games will just be able to run there. In fact, 1254 01:01:00.880 --> 01:01:03.559 make your games designed to run on switch To first, 1255 01:01:03.840 --> 01:01:06.119 and of course they'll look great on everything else anyways 1256 01:01:06.159 --> 01:01:08.920 at that point. So yeah, I kind of like, I 1257 01:01:09.039 --> 01:01:11.840 hope Square Knicks is really thinking hard about switch to 1258 01:01:12.000 --> 01:01:13.079 for all their projects now. 1259 01:01:13.559 --> 01:01:17.079 I hope so too. All right, let's kind of talk 1260 01:01:17.119 --> 01:01:19.559 about the Nintendo news and just real quick, it is 1261 01:01:19.599 --> 01:01:21.079 April Fool's Day, so this is going to be a 1262 01:01:21.119 --> 01:01:23.719 lighter news section, nothing really from today. No one puts 1263 01:01:23.719 --> 01:01:26.480 out news today, so yeah, we're going to go easy. 1264 01:01:26.559 --> 01:01:28.800 But here's what we're talking about. Nintendo switch To Direct 1265 01:01:28.920 --> 01:01:32.320 got a duration announced. It's going to be sixty minutes. 1266 01:01:33.000 --> 01:01:35.480 That's in line with what I think I someone asked me, 1267 01:01:35.480 --> 01:01:37.119 I'm like, I think it's going to be about fifty minutes, 1268 01:01:37.159 --> 01:01:41.719 five zero minutes it's sixty though, ten extra minutes everybody, So, hey, 1269 01:01:42.840 --> 01:01:45.840 that is set, says to me, we get a good 1270 01:01:46.519 --> 01:01:50.880 hefty chunk, maybe twenty five to thirty minutes focused on 1271 01:01:51.239 --> 01:01:55.119 here's the hardware, the functionality, the interface, and then another 1272 01:01:55.239 --> 01:01:59.159 twenty five to thirty minutes focused on the games and 1273 01:02:00.199 --> 01:02:02.280 direct if they do it in the traditional direct style, 1274 01:02:03.079 --> 01:02:04.920 if it's you know, and who knows actually how it 1275 01:02:04.960 --> 01:02:06.960 breaks down. But let's say it's thirty minutes of games. 1276 01:02:07.360 --> 01:02:10.480 They do about one game a minute. So do you 1277 01:02:10.559 --> 01:02:13.480 think that they're going to have thirty games in this thing? 1278 01:02:13.679 --> 01:02:16.199 Like obviously they'll be announced for not just for launch, 1279 01:02:16.440 --> 01:02:19.519 for it well into the future. But thirty games? Does 1280 01:02:19.559 --> 01:02:20.679 that sound right plausible? 1281 01:02:20.679 --> 01:02:23.320 I wouldn't be surprised. I think it's plausible. I mean, 1282 01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:26.320 they could rehash a bunch of existing stuff, right and 1283 01:02:26.440 --> 01:02:29.280 show off how there may be improvements. They could show 1284 01:02:29.400 --> 01:02:31.360 metro time four again, probably a lot of that. 1285 01:02:31.519 --> 01:02:33.880 You'll see Breath of the Wild at sixty frames per second. 1286 01:02:35.039 --> 01:02:37.119 There's going to be some that maybe get a little 1287 01:02:37.119 --> 01:02:39.039 bit of a deeper dive, like Mario Kart will get 1288 01:02:39.079 --> 01:02:41.760 more than a minute most right, Yeah, just. 1289 01:02:41.920 --> 01:02:43.440 But on average, the way it broke down is like 1290 01:02:43.880 --> 01:02:46.000 in a direct, you get about one game per minute 1291 01:02:46.159 --> 01:02:46.719 on average. 1292 01:02:47.039 --> 01:02:49.480 Yeah, I think this is going to be similar to 1293 01:02:49.719 --> 01:02:52.880 the switch presentation that they did in twenty seventeen leading 1294 01:02:52.960 --> 01:02:55.159 up to the console's release, which was I looked up 1295 01:02:55.199 --> 01:02:57.920 here on YouTube, also an hour long. So I think 1296 01:02:57.960 --> 01:03:00.280 it just only makes sense that they show off the 1297 01:03:00.320 --> 01:03:02.360 hardware for the first you know, twenty miss to half 1298 01:03:02.400 --> 01:03:06.559 an hour, like show off what's new, new services, new features, 1299 01:03:06.679 --> 01:03:09.039 all of that stuff, and they as spend the back 1300 01:03:09.159 --> 01:03:13.199 half ish talking about the games that are updated. As 1301 01:03:13.239 --> 01:03:16.480 we know, games will be presented on switch To a 1302 01:03:16.639 --> 01:03:19.199 unique way in some variety. We still know exactly what 1303 01:03:19.280 --> 01:03:21.639 that looks like. They'll talk about that, and then we'll 1304 01:03:21.639 --> 01:03:25.119 see anything that's new coming to switch To and the 1305 01:03:25.400 --> 01:03:28.639 Nintendo ecosystem for the first time here, because switch To 1306 01:03:28.800 --> 01:03:31.440 is gonna be a lot beef here. I was thinking 1307 01:03:31.440 --> 01:03:34.360 about this. This was like a shower thought I had 1308 01:03:34.400 --> 01:03:38.519 where this is actually consistent with Nintendo. They put out 1309 01:03:38.559 --> 01:03:41.679 a handheld that is basically the tech from ten years 1310 01:03:41.719 --> 01:03:44.639 ago that was in console in a handheld, Yeah, like 1311 01:03:44.760 --> 01:03:48.079 game Boys. The nes GBA is a super Nintendo DSN 1312 01:03:48.119 --> 01:03:51.800 sixty four three DS with a GameCube and switched with 1313 01:03:52.920 --> 01:03:54.800 three sixty, I guess you could say, and so yeah, 1314 01:03:54.880 --> 01:03:57.800 now we're at PS four territory. So that's what is 1315 01:03:58.199 --> 01:04:00.039 That's what we should be expecting. And with the the 1316 01:04:00.199 --> 01:04:02.840 leaks that are out there, the rumors, it seems like, yeah, 1317 01:04:02.880 --> 01:04:06.239 you're going to get any game that could theoretically have 1318 01:04:06.360 --> 01:04:08.840 a PS four version will show up on switch too, 1319 01:04:08.880 --> 01:04:10.039 because that just makes sense. 1320 01:04:10.440 --> 01:04:13.079 It's interesting how like motion is relative, so like they've 1321 01:04:13.159 --> 01:04:16.000 done that consistently, and yet the industry's kind of moved 1322 01:04:16.039 --> 01:04:20.079 closer to them because the gap between you know, a 1323 01:04:20.119 --> 01:04:22.159 PS four and a PS five is as small as 1324 01:04:22.199 --> 01:04:25.639 the console generation's ever been, So a switch to coming 1325 01:04:25.639 --> 01:04:28.079 out and basically being a PS four just doesn't feel 1326 01:04:28.119 --> 01:04:30.519 as crazy as when the DS came out and we 1327 01:04:30.559 --> 01:04:32.400 were comparing it to the PSP and it's like, man, 1328 01:04:32.480 --> 01:04:35.719 they are so far behind. It's just a completely different world. Yeah. 1329 01:04:35.840 --> 01:04:37.519 Yeah, and look how that turned out, huh. 1330 01:04:38.000 --> 01:04:41.239 I mean, Nintendo strategically always made the right decision. It 1331 01:04:41.320 --> 01:04:42.920 always worked out on the handheld side. 1332 01:04:43.000 --> 01:04:45.719 So I think what was going to help them is 1333 01:04:45.760 --> 01:04:48.840 that the industry is actually scaling down a little bit. 1334 01:04:48.920 --> 01:04:50.719 This is the something that we're just talking about hopefully, 1335 01:04:50.840 --> 01:04:54.280 Like no, companies are slowly starting to make just you know, 1336 01:04:54.400 --> 01:04:56.599 slightly smaller projects until we get to the point where 1337 01:04:56.639 --> 01:05:00.159 we do resustainability again hopefully. That's a hopeful part. But 1338 01:05:00.440 --> 01:05:02.440 my dad is good for Nintendo because that means more 1339 01:05:02.559 --> 01:05:06.079 games could theoretically run a scale down port on Switch too. 1340 01:05:06.800 --> 01:05:10.079 I wonder if some of that scaling process has kind 1341 01:05:10.119 --> 01:05:13.480 of been in motion, not only from like a lot 1342 01:05:13.519 --> 01:05:15.719 of folks getting laid off across the industry, but also 1343 01:05:16.280 --> 01:05:21.920 for companies dreading GTA six and trying to avoid that 1344 01:05:22.199 --> 01:05:24.000 or just slip underneath the radar. 1345 01:05:24.119 --> 01:05:25.719 Not gonna be able to compete with that anyways, no 1346 01:05:25.800 --> 01:05:27.800 matter what you do, no matter how high use quote 1347 01:05:27.840 --> 01:05:28.599 unquote scale it. 1348 01:05:29.039 --> 01:05:33.079 Yeah, absolutely, yes, exactly right. That's just money that you 1349 01:05:33.239 --> 01:05:35.079 do not have, and they have all of it, so 1350 01:05:35.239 --> 01:05:36.320 it's a completely different thing. 1351 01:05:36.400 --> 01:05:38.119 Yep. Do you think we're going to see a celebrity 1352 01:05:38.159 --> 01:05:45.320 tomorrow on like this switch to direct Chris? Yeah, just 1353 01:05:45.360 --> 01:05:48.039 host it is a bad guy now no, well no, 1354 01:05:48.239 --> 01:05:50.159 he got over skin cancer, so he's still good. 1355 01:05:50.679 --> 01:05:53.400 Okay, You're allowed to be evil if you beat cancer. 1356 01:05:53.480 --> 01:05:55.320 That's right, That's how it works. Just look at great moment. 1357 01:06:01.320 --> 01:06:06.440 All right, no bad job. 1358 01:06:07.480 --> 01:06:17.400 Really, let's go myself there, April fools. Let's say no, 1359 01:06:17.679 --> 01:06:22.119 I wasn't going to pretend I had cancer. I wasn't 1360 01:06:22.159 --> 01:06:25.559 going to do that. Don't worry, it's fine. Keep reading 1361 01:06:25.599 --> 01:06:26.519 the news, Jeff. 1362 01:06:28.840 --> 01:06:29.559 Thank you, Cardi. 1363 01:06:30.880 --> 01:06:31.199 All right. 1364 01:06:31.280 --> 01:06:34.320 Yeah. Other Nintendo stuff, the Nintendo Treehouse, which is like 1365 01:06:34.360 --> 01:06:38.800 their North American localization team, sort of support team for 1366 01:06:38.880 --> 01:06:41.000 developers bringing games here. They do a bunch of stuff. 1367 01:06:41.239 --> 01:06:44.159 They will be doing two streams on April third and 1368 01:06:44.199 --> 01:06:46.960 April fourth to show off the switch to This is 1369 01:06:47.000 --> 01:06:49.239 something they used to do after E three. Excuse me 1370 01:06:49.320 --> 01:06:51.960 all the time. So I'm expecting something along the line. 1371 01:06:52.000 --> 01:06:54.360 So here's some games that, you know, we're shown off 1372 01:06:54.400 --> 01:06:56.679 and we're gonna go deep with them talking to the developers. 1373 01:06:56.880 --> 01:07:01.039 They did one time announce a game during the Treehouse stream, 1374 01:07:01.199 --> 01:07:04.239 Metro Game Metro Game Samus Returns. 1375 01:07:04.599 --> 01:07:07.360 So maybe we get something fun like that where they're 1376 01:07:07.440 --> 01:07:10.440 like this thing right, it's like zero. 1377 01:07:11.079 --> 01:07:14.079 And that was crazy. Why why'd they do that? Either way, 1378 01:07:14.320 --> 01:07:16.320 I'm excited about that. Those treeout streams are fun to 1379 01:07:16.360 --> 01:07:17.519 just put on and be like, oh it, get some 1380 01:07:17.599 --> 01:07:18.199 extra tidbits. 1381 01:07:18.239 --> 01:07:20.519 Yes, does that. I remember the one E three they 1382 01:07:20.679 --> 01:07:24.239 didn't announce Smash Brothers during their like E three presentation, 1383 01:07:24.440 --> 01:07:27.320 but like that second smaller show where they announced Smash 1384 01:07:27.400 --> 01:07:30.199 Brothers Brawl or something. I was like, oh, oh, I 1385 01:07:30.480 --> 01:07:32.760 guess I thought this wasn't happening. It's happening here, okay, 1386 01:07:34.199 --> 01:07:34.559 all right. 1387 01:07:34.599 --> 01:07:37.440 Also, people have sent me some stuff from the update 1388 01:07:37.480 --> 01:07:41.599 for Nintendo Today, the new app. If you click on 1389 01:07:41.719 --> 01:07:46.599 the Sea button, according to this like small video, Nintendo 1390 01:07:46.920 --> 01:07:49.320 just shouts the word Today at you. Okay, So so 1391 01:07:49.519 --> 01:07:51.440 in this video, I'll just describe it. It's seven seconds. 1392 01:07:51.480 --> 01:07:53.639 It's from the Nintendo to Day app. They show the 1393 01:07:53.719 --> 01:07:56.159 Sea button, which is the new button below the home 1394 01:07:56.199 --> 01:07:59.119 button on the right joycon for the switch to so 1395 01:07:59.440 --> 01:08:01.840 they have a thumb quick it, and then it shouts 1396 01:08:01.880 --> 01:08:06.039 Today exclamation point, which is the branding for Nintendo Today. 1397 01:08:07.039 --> 01:08:10.679 That video, Yeah, yeah, it means in a chat right now, 1398 01:08:10.880 --> 01:08:11.960 added I'll put it in there again. 1399 01:08:12.039 --> 01:08:15.519 Yeah, they're just teasing what They're just teasing the Sea button, 1400 01:08:15.679 --> 01:08:17.800 right you know that today? I think that's something that 1401 01:08:17.920 --> 01:08:19.760 is just a branding for the app. I suppose I 1402 01:08:19.800 --> 01:08:20.119 don't know. 1403 01:08:20.640 --> 01:08:22.640 But yeah, you don't you don't you don't think that 1404 01:08:22.840 --> 01:08:25.520 the the way that it's framed is saying that this 1405 01:08:25.640 --> 01:08:27.159 is one of the things the button does is bring 1406 01:08:27.279 --> 01:08:27.960 up the Today app. 1407 01:08:28.079 --> 01:08:28.239 Oh. 1408 01:08:28.399 --> 01:08:31.760 I read it as this got a case in the 1409 01:08:31.840 --> 01:08:34.760 app early, and it was like they were being clever 1410 01:08:34.880 --> 01:08:38.800 with the wordplay, as in, like the directives today. Maybe Okay, 1411 01:08:38.920 --> 01:08:40.880 I know that Today is the name of the app, 1412 01:08:41.000 --> 01:08:43.640 but that's how I was interpreting, and maybe I'm off 1413 01:08:43.840 --> 01:08:44.359 with their. 1414 01:08:45.079 --> 01:08:47.279 Well, yeah, I guess when I watched the video, You're like, 1415 01:08:47.319 --> 01:08:49.479 there's enough of a beat between when they press it 1416 01:08:49.600 --> 01:08:51.159 and then ending the app that maybe it is just 1417 01:08:51.199 --> 01:08:52.640 a reference to the branding that's. 1418 01:08:52.640 --> 01:08:55.880 Yeah, like they're just like, hey, we're gonna talk about 1419 01:08:55.920 --> 01:08:56.359 this soon. 1420 01:08:57.159 --> 01:09:00.000 Yeah. I still think that pressing the Seabun's probably gonna 1421 01:09:00.119 --> 01:09:01.760 some sort of hub that takes you to a lot 1422 01:09:01.840 --> 01:09:05.319 of extra stuff that probably does community communication. 1423 01:09:05.680 --> 01:09:05.880 Yeah. 1424 01:09:05.960 --> 01:09:07.640 I mean I've been thinking for a long time this 1425 01:09:07.960 --> 01:09:10.439 it means community maybe connect if they want to be 1426 01:09:10.439 --> 01:09:12.479 a cute connectivity. 1427 01:09:11.960 --> 01:09:15.279 Is back there we go, connectivity compadres. What if it's 1428 01:09:15.279 --> 01:09:17.319 a padres button. Yeah. 1429 01:09:17.479 --> 01:09:21.800 Finally, like if it's like, you know, a me verse replacement, 1430 01:09:22.000 --> 01:09:25.640 if it's some way if it's like the friends list 1431 01:09:25.880 --> 01:09:28.359 and everything is good now actually, and they just made 1432 01:09:28.359 --> 01:09:31.800 a dedicade. But because they're Nintendo, I'm thinking something along. 1433 01:09:31.920 --> 01:09:35.680 Oh my god, what okay, my two out outlandish ideas. One, 1434 01:09:35.840 --> 01:09:38.000 what if it's just a cool button. You know, it's 1435 01:09:38.079 --> 01:09:41.520 like it's the cool button. Yeah, that was cool. 1436 01:09:43.000 --> 01:09:46.880 The ses and games become cools is yeah, I know, 1437 01:09:47.119 --> 01:09:49.600 I know how to trigger you bud. The other thing, 1438 01:09:49.720 --> 01:09:52.960 what if it's a cheapy robo button. Okay, wow, yeah, 1439 01:09:53.880 --> 01:09:55.800 a little a socket pops out of the switch.

We 1469 01:11:07.520 --> 01:11:11.479 will know what's going on. I'm excited. There was a 1470 01:11:11.560 --> 01:11:13.840 direct last week. We've talked about it in a bunch 1471 01:11:13.880 --> 01:11:15.680 of places, but we haven't not talked about it on 1472 01:11:15.720 --> 01:11:18.119 the BombCast fully, So let's go over the big highlights here. 1473 01:11:18.560 --> 01:11:20.680 It was a switch one direct. It came out of 1474 01:11:20.760 --> 01:11:24.800 nowhere mostly although there were rumors Tomodaci Life has you know, 1475 01:11:24.920 --> 01:11:28.560 really caught on fire, especially in Japan, but it's like 1476 01:11:28.640 --> 01:11:32.319 it has more likes on Instagram than this switch to 1477 01:11:32.560 --> 01:11:36.039 reveal in Japan Tomadaci Life. It's that kind of game there. 1478 01:11:36.520 --> 01:11:40.479 I underestimated how crazy people got it. 1479 01:11:40.600 --> 01:11:42.680 I didn't know. I'm like, I like it, but this 1480 01:11:42.800 --> 01:11:45.520 is for like, you know, freaks like me. And Dan 1481 01:11:45.680 --> 01:11:47.840 was excited. I'm like, yeah, listen, we're going to play 1482 01:11:47.880 --> 01:11:51.000 this up a little bit, but we're kind of over exaggerating. 1483 01:11:51.039 --> 01:11:53.039 I love the game, but it's like, you know, I'm 1484 01:11:53.159 --> 01:11:54.920 being a little bit you know, out of pocket with this. 1485 01:11:55.199 --> 01:11:57.119 It's like, oh no, you know, I completely forgot. There 1486 01:11:57.199 --> 01:11:59.600 is a huge audience of people for whom these kinds 1487 01:11:59.600 --> 01:12:02.159 of games are everything, and my kids are that way. 1488 01:12:02.199 --> 01:12:05.359 They love this kind of thing. Rhythm Heaven Groove Gon 1489 01:12:05.479 --> 01:12:08.319 announced as well, so a couple of the weirder Nintendo 1490 01:12:08.600 --> 01:12:11.319 franchises making return, where the Rhythm Heaven Groove is a 1491 01:12:12.439 --> 01:12:15.439 Rhythm Warrior aware kind of game, although it's not presented 1492 01:12:15.479 --> 01:12:18.079 that way. It's from the similar team. Metroid Prime four 1493 01:12:18.199 --> 01:12:22.479 got its most gameplay reveal so far. We saw psychic abilities. 1494 01:12:23.520 --> 01:12:25.640 That seems to be the big thing here, although you 1495 01:12:25.680 --> 01:12:27.279 guys get the sense that we still just have seen 1496 01:12:27.319 --> 01:12:29.520 barely anything from this game. Even though we saw the 1497 01:12:29.560 --> 01:12:31.840 psychic abilities, I feel like there's so much more in there. 1498 01:12:31.960 --> 01:12:34.159 I I kind of feel like what we're looking at 1499 01:12:34.239 --> 01:12:37.840 that's Metroid Prime, like, unless they're doing three it's like 1500 01:12:38.199 --> 01:12:40.399 playing it hopping with a menu, and there's a lot 1501 01:12:40.439 --> 01:12:42.960 of dialogue which I don't think they would lean into 1502 01:12:43.159 --> 01:12:43.720 too much. 1503 01:12:43.960 --> 01:12:45.199 Not not we don't want them to. 1504 01:12:45.600 --> 01:12:48.359 No. I think it's gonna be more like Prime two, 1505 01:12:48.640 --> 01:12:51.680 where like Silenx is like Dark Samus, you have an 1506 01:12:51.720 --> 01:12:53.000 antagonist throughout it. 1507 01:12:53.199 --> 01:12:55.399 But basically it's gonna be like Prime one, you know. 1508 01:12:55.640 --> 01:12:56.720 I think they know what. 1509 01:12:56.880 --> 01:12:59.359 People want out of this Morenichs series. I think we're 1510 01:12:59.399 --> 01:13:00.840 gonna get basically that. 1511 01:13:02.199 --> 01:13:05.359 Then Marvel Comic Invasion, which is a beat him up 1512 01:13:05.520 --> 01:13:09.680 from Tribute and dot Emu. It looks fantastic. The characters 1513 01:13:09.720 --> 01:13:12.600 look like they are ripped from Marvel versus Capcom two 1514 01:13:13.439 --> 01:13:16.000 in the best way. It's very impressive looking. 1515 01:13:16.199 --> 01:13:18.199 It's so cool, and what's you know, what's seen here? 1516 01:13:18.199 --> 01:13:21.319 As we've seen like seven characters and it's gonna have 1517 01:13:21.479 --> 01:13:24.319 fifteen though, so there's still heroes in here that we 1518 01:13:24.680 --> 01:13:26.479 haven't seen yet. It'll be fun to see who else 1519 01:13:26.560 --> 01:13:29.359 is sort of plucked from that marvsus capcom lineup, who's 1520 01:13:29.399 --> 01:13:31.960 sort of being introduced to this world because we already 1521 01:13:31.960 --> 01:13:34.640 have a mix of both of those in this initial lineup. 1522 01:13:35.399 --> 01:13:39.479 I love Strader's revenge that tribute did I like beat 1523 01:13:39.560 --> 01:13:42.279 them up a lot? I like marvelsus capcom. Fact, this 1524 01:13:42.359 --> 01:13:45.000 is like my favorite way of thinking about Marvel is 1525 01:13:45.079 --> 01:13:48.920 in this particular video game sense. So I'm really excity 1526 01:13:48.960 --> 01:13:49.119 for this. 1527 01:13:50.000 --> 01:13:52.159 Yeah, I'm My thing right now is like I have 1528 01:13:52.319 --> 01:13:54.880 fallen off hard off the MCU, but I loved X 1529 01:13:54.960 --> 01:13:57.800 Men ninety seven and wiscon so I'm in the mood 1530 01:13:57.960 --> 01:14:00.279 for X Men beat him up and that's the thing, 1531 01:14:00.319 --> 01:14:02.760 and this is definitely a successor to that, while also 1532 01:14:02.840 --> 01:14:04.920 kind of being bigger and more interesting in some ways. 1533 01:14:05.239 --> 01:14:09.079 These seven characters were confirmed are Captain America, Spider Man 1534 01:14:09.720 --> 01:14:12.640 of Venom, Wolverine, Storm. 1535 01:14:13.279 --> 01:14:15.960 Quasar, Oh that's who that was?

I know they're not doing the 1542 01:14:26.880 --> 01:14:29.520 X Men game, but like, I want to see Gambit. 1543 01:14:30.399 --> 01:14:32.840 Dambit's the one that, especially after X Men ninety seven, 1544 01:14:33.000 --> 01:14:35.920 I would love to see Gambit, right, He absolutely crushed 1545 01:14:35.920 --> 01:14:36.760 it in that season. 1546 01:14:37.000 --> 01:14:38.439 You should have iron Man in here. 1547 01:14:38.479 --> 01:14:40.199 So iron Man or. 1548 01:14:42.800 --> 01:14:43.760 Worse. 1549 01:14:44.439 --> 01:14:46.079 But I want to see a Sunday Buss. 1550 01:14:47.520 --> 01:14:50.720 Yeah, the Leader of the Goddamn X. 1551 01:14:50.840 --> 01:14:51.880 They should dolops. 1552 01:14:52.039 --> 01:14:56.680 They should do cyclops absolutely please, Yeah, but you need 1553 01:14:56.760 --> 01:14:58.000 one nerd, I guess. 1554 01:15:01.439 --> 01:15:05.159 Would be good.

There are still Sony 1575 01:15:58.239 --> 01:16:01.720 properties to Sony like ownership. Trademark is in the fine print. 1576 01:16:02.119 --> 01:16:04.399 This is not even the first time this has happened, right, 1577 01:16:04.600 --> 01:16:05.399 freedom Planet? 1578 01:16:05.560 --> 01:16:08.880 Is that more similar to Freedom Planet is the fan 1579 01:16:09.000 --> 01:16:10.159 game that plays like Sonic? 1580 01:16:10.560 --> 01:16:12.600 Yes, the Sonic game. Yes, I always mix those up. 1581 01:16:12.640 --> 01:16:15.960 Freedom Wars that happened with that as well. So they're 1582 01:16:15.960 --> 01:16:17.800 continuing this is what it sounds. 1583 01:16:17.880 --> 01:16:19.560 Yeah, I forgot about that the first time we talked 1584 01:16:19.560 --> 01:16:22.279 about it too. Yeah, that's a good point that they're 1585 01:16:22.359 --> 01:16:25.800 just I mean, Bandy Namco seems sort of just despite 1586 01:16:25.840 --> 01:16:27.720 how huge they are, they do seem sort of like 1587 01:16:27.760 --> 01:16:30.239 a work for higher thing in Japan where it's like, oh, 1588 01:16:30.319 --> 01:16:33.800 we need something done, band Nampo's got some team, they'll 1589 01:16:33.840 --> 01:16:35.680 do it for us, pay them the right amount of money, 1590 01:16:35.760 --> 01:16:38.279 they get it done, it comes out, and everybody's happy. 1591 01:16:38.399 --> 01:16:40.279 So yeah, I think I think that's making more and 1592 01:16:40.359 --> 01:16:43.479 more sense that PlayStation is just like, look, y'all can 1593 01:16:43.600 --> 01:16:46.159 do this thing. H you know, Everybody's golf is a 1594 01:16:46.239 --> 01:16:48.760 new game, sort of like licensing it out and then 1595 01:16:48.840 --> 01:16:52.119 Banda Namco is publishing, and then another team is doing 1596 01:16:52.199 --> 01:16:54.720 the development of it. So it seems like a weird 1597 01:16:54.880 --> 01:16:57.600 spider web here. But if they're just like it's we're 1598 01:16:57.720 --> 01:17:00.840 hands off because a variety of reasons. I guess it 1599 01:17:00.920 --> 01:17:01.399 makes sense. 1600 01:17:01.920 --> 01:17:04.119 It's just it's just a little weird, Like I don't know, 1601 01:17:05.000 --> 01:17:08.199 because they are actively making sure that the PlayStation branding 1602 01:17:08.359 --> 01:17:11.359 is not front and center even visible on any of 1603 01:17:11.439 --> 01:17:14.079 this stuff. And I don't know, Like, I know, Patapon's 1604 01:17:14.119 --> 01:17:15.960 not the biggest thing in the world, but you should 1605 01:17:15.960 --> 01:17:18.800 be a little bit proud that that is a PlayStation franchise. 1606 01:17:18.840 --> 01:17:22.039 You don't want people to that with you, I would argue, 1607 01:17:22.079 --> 01:17:24.920 it's it's kind of the opposite where it's such a 1608 01:17:25.119 --> 01:17:28.880 hardcore property that maybe they're like, oh yeah, fan perception 1609 01:17:29.039 --> 01:17:31.399 with a real hardcore crowd would be like no, no, no, 1610 01:17:31.720 --> 01:17:33.520 pat pons our thing, what are you doing here? 1611 01:17:33.600 --> 01:17:36.680 And yeah, yes, And I bet there are definitely are 1612 01:17:36.720 --> 01:17:38.720 people say that, like, but we're turning a corner on 1613 01:17:38.880 --> 01:17:41.199 all of that stuff, right, we want to be. 1614 01:17:41.479 --> 01:17:44.239 But yeah, like we talked about in the direct, more, 1615 01:17:44.720 --> 01:17:48.880 it's a combination of like fan perception affecting how the 1616 01:17:49.039 --> 01:17:51.920 market is received and everything like that. There's there's a 1617 01:17:52.000 --> 01:17:55.640 whole weird, nebulous, like said spider web of stuff happening 1618 01:17:55.760 --> 01:17:57.640 there that makes it all kind of tricky. 1619 01:18:00.680 --> 01:18:02.359 Sorry, I just Brenton you guys a message. 1620 01:18:04.840 --> 01:18:05.640 What is he doing? 1621 01:18:06.119 --> 01:18:10.199 Yeah? Sorry about that. Then Disney's Villain Disney Villain's Curse Cafe. 1622 01:18:10.359 --> 01:18:13.960 Mike talked about that earlier, but that kind of announced here. Yeah, 1623 01:18:14.560 --> 01:18:17.039 it was not obviously not the only like Disney thing 1624 01:18:17.079 --> 01:18:21.199 popping up there. Marvels as well. I'm sorry, Yeah, Marvel 1625 01:18:21.239 --> 01:18:25.600 Cosmic Invasion. So Disney like continues to see Nintendo as 1626 01:18:25.880 --> 01:18:28.399 like a home base for them. They did that Mickey 1627 01:18:28.479 --> 01:18:32.000 game Disney Illusion Island, Disney Illusion Island, which I think 1628 01:18:32.079 --> 01:18:33.840 is still only ever been on Switch. Did that ever 1629 01:18:33.880 --> 01:18:34.640 even come to PC? 1630 01:18:35.039 --> 01:18:38.199 No, it was on PC. That's the at the Illusion Island. 1631 01:18:38.199 --> 01:18:41.359 I'm thinking of the Farming game. Sorry, yeah, yeah, this game. 1632 01:18:41.279 --> 01:18:44.960 Is still only on Nintendo Switch. The Lousion Island, Yeah. 1633 01:18:45.119 --> 01:18:48.319 Weird, right, and that's a multiplayer Metroid Vane which was 1634 01:18:48.359 --> 01:18:51.439 a real fun play with the family. But yeah, I 1635 01:18:51.960 --> 01:18:53.600 think that continues to make a lot of sense. Obviously, 1636 01:18:53.720 --> 01:18:57.000 Nintendo and Disney there's some synergy there in terms of 1637 01:18:57.079 --> 01:18:59.960 audiences that they go after. So not surprised to see 1638 01:19:00.079 --> 01:19:02.960 them sort of position this game front and foremost as 1639 01:19:03.000 --> 01:19:08.279 a Nintendo thing. All right, virtual game card they announced 1640 01:19:08.279 --> 01:19:11.000 that as well, it's their family sharing plan. I think 1641 01:19:11.000 --> 01:19:13.640 I was surprised to see so many people like confused 1642 01:19:13.720 --> 01:19:16.119 by this, but I guess like going back and watching, 1643 01:19:16.119 --> 01:19:18.159 it's like, okay, if you are not someone who has 1644 01:19:18.279 --> 01:19:21.039 tried to do this with a family, yeah, having them 1645 01:19:21.119 --> 01:19:22.960 lay it out like how like, oh, you're going to 1646 01:19:23.039 --> 01:19:26.039 need to have someone who's like using your switch account 1647 01:19:26.079 --> 01:19:27.720 on the system, and then also if you have a 1648 01:19:27.800 --> 01:19:29.920 family plan and all that stuff like that stuff like 1649 01:19:30.000 --> 01:19:32.159 I imagined as I was struggling to get this to 1650 01:19:32.239 --> 01:19:34.119 work with like three kids before. So it's like, Okay, 1651 01:19:34.159 --> 01:19:36.720 they're doing the thing I wanted. You haven't done this before. 1652 01:19:37.039 --> 01:19:38.520 It did sound a little bit like Greek. 1653 01:19:38.640 --> 01:19:41.119 That's exactly what I was seeing online, where like people 1654 01:19:41.239 --> 01:19:44.279 who have never done anything like this are like why 1655 01:19:44.319 --> 01:19:47.600 are they doing this convoluted, weird system with like sharing 1656 01:19:47.640 --> 01:19:50.239 a virtual item, And then anyone who's ever attempted a 1657 01:19:50.319 --> 01:19:52.479 family plans like, oh my god, this makes things so 1658 01:19:52.640 --> 01:19:55.479 much easier. Yes, thank you, just like simplify the system. 1659 01:19:55.840 --> 01:19:58.279 It becomes like this virtual item that I send over 1660 01:19:58.399 --> 01:20:00.119 to the person who I want to share the game with. 1661 01:20:00.479 --> 01:20:02.560 They open it up. It's like they just have the 1662 01:20:02.640 --> 01:20:05.479 digital game downloaded, it just works so much easier. 1663 01:20:05.560 --> 01:20:07.119 Yeah. I mean, it's like the digital game is a 1664 01:20:07.159 --> 01:20:09.239 physical game that you ended to them. It's kind of 1665 01:20:09.279 --> 01:20:11.720 exactly what they're saying, a virtual game card. 1666 01:20:11.800 --> 01:20:15.079 Yeah. I think you brought up on GBN of like 1667 01:20:15.319 --> 01:20:19.359 the whole Xbox before the backlash thing in Xbox one era, 1668 01:20:19.479 --> 01:20:21.800 of like being able to share your digital games this 1669 01:20:21.840 --> 01:20:24.000 way as if they were a physical item, and I 1670 01:20:24.159 --> 01:20:25.680 was like, no, no, no, we want the discs, and 1671 01:20:26.439 --> 01:20:29.239 Nintendo is just like yeah. But now we're at a 1672 01:20:29.319 --> 01:20:31.399 plate where this is a good idea and I think 1673 01:20:31.479 --> 01:20:32.319 y'all will like it. 1674 01:20:33.079 --> 01:20:36.000 And I think Nintendo for as much as you know, 1675 01:20:36.079 --> 01:20:39.319 we had a Reese Elliott on a game Game Breaking 1676 01:20:39.359 --> 01:20:42.319 News as well, and he mentioned like for Nintendo, physical 1677 01:20:42.399 --> 01:20:46.199 still massive for Switch, but it is still trending in 1678 01:20:46.720 --> 01:20:49.600 the direction of more and more digital every day. So 1679 01:20:49.800 --> 01:20:52.520 this is Nintendo kind of predicting behaviors and being ready 1680 01:20:52.560 --> 01:20:54.640 to catch people who are like, Okay, for Switch one, 1681 01:20:55.119 --> 01:20:57.319 I was buying physical games. I might go digital for 1682 01:20:57.399 --> 01:20:59.479 Switch to, but I just can't make it make sense 1683 01:20:59.479 --> 01:21:00.920 because I have a kid I want to share a 1684 01:21:00.960 --> 01:21:03.039 game with, or you know. The other thing here is 1685 01:21:03.760 --> 01:21:06.680 backward compatibility. People are gonna get switched to they already 1686 01:21:06.720 --> 01:21:09.039 have a switch one, They're gonna pass the switch one 1687 01:21:09.119 --> 01:21:11.439 onto someone else, and it's like, okay, you have all 1688 01:21:11.439 --> 01:21:13.800 those digital games. We want to encourage people to keep 1689 01:21:13.840 --> 01:21:16.520 buying digital because it does give us a higher profit margin. 1690 01:21:16.600 --> 01:21:18.640 We don't have to worry about things like, let's say, 1691 01:21:18.800 --> 01:21:22.199 tariffs or importing discs from Mexico or something like that. 1692 01:21:22.640 --> 01:21:24.439 There are a lot of reasons why Nintendo wants to 1693 01:21:24.520 --> 01:21:26.640 get this going. I'm glad that they finally did. I 1694 01:21:26.760 --> 01:21:29.760 wasn't really sure if they ever would. Steam family sharing 1695 01:21:29.800 --> 01:21:32.000 is still way better, but this is going to work. 1696 01:21:32.119 --> 01:21:34.720 Mostly, you can't compare anything to Steam because Steam does 1697 01:21:34.840 --> 01:21:38.159 no basically everything better because they're all pretty business yep. 1698 01:21:38.239 --> 01:21:41.920 Completely different situation yep. And then Nintendo today, We've mentioned 1699 01:21:41.920 --> 01:21:43.840 a couple times they announced this. This was the one 1700 01:21:43.920 --> 01:21:47.119 last thing, you know, they had Tomodacci life. Then Mimoto 1701 01:21:47.159 --> 01:21:49.039 comes out. It's like, I got something special for y'all, 1702 01:21:49.720 --> 01:21:54.000 a phone app, and I'm just Nintendo never change. It's 1703 01:21:54.239 --> 01:21:58.239 a daily calendar news service thing that will update every 1704 01:21:58.359 --> 01:22:01.560 day at least with a little piece of either information 1705 01:22:01.880 --> 01:22:06.000 or some fun aside a jpeg for example, who knows 1706 01:22:06.880 --> 01:22:09.920 it's here. It as hell, But it's Nintendo's way of 1707 01:22:09.960 --> 01:22:11.880 doing things obviously, Like I do think that they do 1708 01:22:12.000 --> 01:22:14.479 this because they want to control their platforms. Yes, And 1709 01:22:15.439 --> 01:22:17.760 I think the day that Elon Musk asked them for 1710 01:22:17.840 --> 01:22:21.000 forty thousand dollars a month to post to share images 1711 01:22:21.039 --> 01:22:23.399 from the Switch, they were like, you know what, we 1712 01:22:23.560 --> 01:22:25.239 never know what's going to happen with these platforms we 1713 01:22:25.279 --> 01:22:26.880 don't own. We got to figure it out. This guy 1714 01:22:26.960 --> 01:22:29.560 is weird and asking for money. We got to get out, Like, 1715 01:22:30.159 --> 01:22:32.119 they're not going to leave these platforms where they have 1716 01:22:32.279 --> 01:22:36.279 millions of eyeballs, especially Twitter, they have so much sway 1717 01:22:36.359 --> 01:22:39.279 when they tweet anything, they're not leaving. They don't want 1718 01:22:39.319 --> 01:22:42.119 to be beholden to anyone, and so this is them 1719 01:22:42.239 --> 01:22:44.039 like setting themselves up to have a way of like 1720 01:22:44.279 --> 01:22:46.720 we can announce the release date for the Zelda movie 1721 01:22:46.800 --> 01:22:49.720 March seventeenth. By the way, twenty twenty seven they announced that. 1722 01:22:49.880 --> 01:22:51.840 That was the first thing they announced in the Nintendo 1723 01:22:51.880 --> 01:22:54.479 Today app. Basically, we can announced that there and that 1724 01:22:54.560 --> 01:22:57.880 will just find itself its way to every other platform, 1725 01:22:57.960 --> 01:22:59.479 so we can control it where we're doing it and 1726 01:22:59.560 --> 01:23:00.720 it'll just go everywhere else. 1727 01:23:00.600 --> 01:23:03.039 In naturally, that's kind of what they've been doing with 1728 01:23:03.159 --> 01:23:05.680 like Nintendo Direct was originally well, we don't need E three. 1729 01:23:05.920 --> 01:23:08.359 Why do we deal with these dudes like we just 1730 01:23:08.479 --> 01:23:12.319 knew our own journalists everywhere? Yeah, my journalists. 1731 01:23:13.039 --> 01:23:15.840 I would follow Nintendo if they made their own social 1732 01:23:15.920 --> 01:23:16.800 media platform. 1733 01:23:17.279 --> 01:23:20.119 I used me Tomo, I used me Verse. You know, 1734 01:23:20.560 --> 01:23:22.239 maybe they didn't. I didn't use me Verse enough to 1735 01:23:22.279 --> 01:23:26.039 save it. I apologize for that. I used it a lot, 1736 01:23:26.279 --> 01:23:28.840 so I don't think they'll ever like fully do that again. 1737 01:23:29.199 --> 01:23:31.680 But I did enjoy them when they did, the world 1738 01:23:31.800 --> 01:23:32.319 needs them to. 1739 01:23:32.680 --> 01:23:32.880 Yep. 1740 01:23:33.119 --> 01:23:35.760 I need to tell everyone that I'm using tiled controls. 1741 01:23:36.000 --> 01:23:39.159 Yeah, where's the where's the yaz and chat? H there 1742 01:23:39.199 --> 01:23:44.199 we go, all right. Finally, Ubisoft has a new subsidiary 1743 01:23:44.439 --> 01:23:47.319 that is twenty five percent owned by ten Cent. This 1744 01:23:47.520 --> 01:23:50.520 is like basically they spun off this other company that 1745 01:23:50.720 --> 01:23:53.399 is owned by Ubisoft and then also twenty five percent 1746 01:23:53.720 --> 01:23:56.199 owned by ten Cent. That twenty five percent came because 1747 01:23:56.399 --> 01:23:59.560 ten Cent injected a few one point one point one 1748 01:23:59.680 --> 01:24:02.600 six billion euros, So that's going to give Ubisoft some 1749 01:24:02.720 --> 01:24:05.760 cash to help fund development for these games. Going forward, 1750 01:24:06.199 --> 01:24:08.760 the games that this subsidiary will focus on, and it 1751 01:24:08.880 --> 01:24:12.479 has taken control of essentially our Assassin's Creed, Farcray, and 1752 01:24:12.640 --> 01:24:15.720 Rainbow six, so not even like the full Tom Clancy suite. 1753 01:24:17.359 --> 01:24:21.159 And yeah, I think that this is a move exclusively 1754 01:24:21.520 --> 01:24:23.840 with the purpose of keeping the Yeves Gimo and the 1755 01:24:23.880 --> 01:24:27.279 Gimo family in charge of Ubisoft. They said explicitly that's 1756 01:24:27.319 --> 01:24:30.239 what they were trying to do. That's all this really accomplishes. 1757 01:24:30.399 --> 01:24:33.079 And then it leaves anyone working on any other game. 1758 01:24:33.199 --> 01:24:36.359 I think it's some weird purgatory of wait, what happens 1759 01:24:36.399 --> 01:24:38.199 to us? And I you know, it sounds like no 1760 01:24:38.319 --> 01:24:39.079 one really knows. 1761 01:24:39.439 --> 01:24:41.479 Yeah, that was my big questions, Like, okay, so like 1762 01:24:41.560 --> 01:24:43.760 what does this mean for anything that isn't one of 1763 01:24:43.800 --> 01:24:46.720 those three franchises? What is going on with that Prince 1764 01:24:46.800 --> 01:24:50.000 of Persia stuff? Beyond Good and Evil too, they swear, 1765 01:24:50.239 --> 01:24:53.399 is still a video game, even things like we just 1766 01:24:53.520 --> 01:24:56.640 stance right, Like what, well, how does that operating? Why 1767 01:24:56.720 --> 01:25:03.119 is that separate? Is this some real corporate maneuvering that 1768 01:25:03.479 --> 01:25:06.000 is beyond my understanding? 1769 01:25:07.000 --> 01:25:09.239 Yep, it's uh, I mean I get that they're just 1770 01:25:09.359 --> 01:25:13.800 trying to get some cash and save themselves in this moment. 1771 01:25:13.880 --> 01:25:16.079 But I think the question we would all have is, Okay, well, 1772 01:25:16.159 --> 01:25:19.159 how does this, you know, save the overall Ubisoft unit, 1773 01:25:19.279 --> 01:25:23.159 How does this ensure that these games are successful going forward? 1774 01:25:23.199 --> 01:25:25.039 And this answer is none of that. In fact, it's 1775 01:25:25.119 --> 01:25:28.760 like now Assassin's Creed, far Crying Rainbow six, just like always, 1776 01:25:28.800 --> 01:25:31.000 but maybe even more so now. Those games have to 1777 01:25:31.119 --> 01:25:34.560 hit hard. They have to be more successful maybe before 1778 01:25:34.600 --> 01:25:38.279 now than they were before to justify all this, and 1779 01:25:38.479 --> 01:25:41.279 that is yeah, that's where Ubisoft has been for a 1780 01:25:41.359 --> 01:25:44.000 long time now, So it's really not much has changed 1781 01:25:44.039 --> 01:25:48.399 other than the corporate structuring and ownership a little bit. 1782 01:25:49.000 --> 01:25:52.199 Ten Cent is invested in all kinds of game developers 1783 01:25:52.239 --> 01:25:55.359 and game publishers. That is an old story. At this point. 1784 01:25:56.119 --> 01:25:58.239 They are not really trying to take over the industry 1785 01:25:58.279 --> 01:25:59.920 in terms of running it, but they are trying to 1786 01:26:00.119 --> 01:26:03.079 invested in every aspect of the industry and that hasn't 1787 01:26:03.159 --> 01:26:04.800 changed and this continues to be a big part of that. 1788 01:26:04.880 --> 01:26:06.560 And they are definitely getting you be Soft while they 1789 01:26:06.560 --> 01:26:09.760 are down this subsidiary. I think they valued at like 1790 01:26:09.800 --> 01:26:12.119 four billion dollars obviously, Yeah, the one point one six 1791 01:26:12.279 --> 01:26:13.960 is twenty five percent, So it's about a little bit 1792 01:26:14.000 --> 01:26:17.119 over four billion dollars. They're expecting that to go up 1793 01:26:17.520 --> 01:26:20.159 if these games do indeed hit, and if they don't, well, 1794 01:26:20.520 --> 01:26:24.239 ten cents right there to take over these brands permanently, 1795 01:26:24.399 --> 01:26:26.319 and that's probably where this ends up. 1796 01:26:26.520 --> 01:26:28.359 Yeah, it's still scary to see stuff, you know, like 1797 01:26:28.520 --> 01:26:31.520 like this, not stand what's happening because it really sucks. 1798 01:26:31.600 --> 01:26:35.119 Yesterday seeing more layoffs at Idos in Montreal, and that's 1799 01:26:35.159 --> 01:26:38.079 just a studio that did nothing but make good video games, 1800 01:26:38.239 --> 01:26:41.279 right yeah, but they got Embraced and that sucked. And 1801 01:26:41.319 --> 01:26:45.840 that Embracer group is its own weird story about just strange, 1802 01:26:46.079 --> 01:26:47.520 stupid things happening with money. 1803 01:26:48.039 --> 01:26:51.000 If they laid off people from crystall Dynamics last week, right, so, 1804 01:26:51.680 --> 01:26:56.600 Crystal Namics and then Idos this week.

Even when they 1807 01:26:59.239 --> 01:27:02.920 have successful game. It has done nothing to stem all 1808 01:27:03.000 --> 01:27:06.680 of these layoffs. It's just been relentless, all right.

First email of the show is hello, BombCast, 1837 01:28:35.239 --> 01:28:38.199 got another trivia effect for you. The origin of a 1838 01:28:38.479 --> 01:28:42.520 chainsaw came from medical practice. At first, Oh, I don't 1839 01:28:42.640 --> 01:28:45.840 like this. A chainsaw was a small chain with sharp 1840 01:28:45.920 --> 01:28:49.399 teeth on it that was hand pulled. It'd be used 1841 01:28:49.399 --> 01:28:52.640 to diseased, infected bone. I should have read this at 1842 01:28:52.640 --> 01:28:56.520 a time you put this in here. I know, and 1843 01:28:56.600 --> 01:28:59.560 at times helps saw a part the pelvist to help 1844 01:28:59.640 --> 01:29:03.439 with the cold child birth little to no anesthesia. Then 1845 01:29:03.720 --> 01:29:05.720 I only know this from a history class I took 1846 01:29:05.720 --> 01:29:08.600 in UNI on the history of medicine. That fact has 1847 01:29:08.640 --> 01:29:10.319 haunted me for years, so now you can share it 1848 01:29:10.399 --> 01:29:14.760 with me. Thanks Simon from Saskatchewan. All right, cool, saw 1849 01:29:14.880 --> 01:29:15.840 part the pelvis. 1850 01:29:16.079 --> 01:29:17.840 At what point do you not just kill me? 1851 01:29:18.479 --> 01:29:18.720 Yeah? 1852 01:29:20.279 --> 01:29:23.199 Man, just just kill me and take it out and 1853 01:29:23.399 --> 01:29:25.600 let the baby fin for itself. But I don't know. 1854 01:29:27.640 --> 01:29:30.239 All right, we're gonna, we're just gonna get past that 1855 01:29:31.279 --> 01:29:34.319 hanging yep. Yeah, we don't need to think about that anymore. 1856 01:29:34.960 --> 01:29:37.640 I'm starting to think ladies might have been mistreated in history. 1857 01:29:37.720 --> 01:29:42.880 Guys, listen, they had their month already all right here right? 1858 01:29:43.439 --> 01:29:45.560 You know what empathy, it's the weakness with God. 1859 01:29:45.840 --> 01:29:48.039 There's that rough scene in that John Adams Macer's I 1860 01:29:48.159 --> 01:29:50.279 Love where his daughter has breast cancer and they just 1861 01:29:50.399 --> 01:29:52.880 take they show you how they take care of that back. 1862 01:29:52.760 --> 01:29:56.359 Then, and I think that there's gonna be a great 1863 01:29:56.399 --> 01:30:01.359 email segment. Hey, random bund help us. Okay, No, I 1864 01:30:01.479 --> 01:30:02.039 don't think so. 1865 01:30:02.159 --> 01:30:04.039 After including that on the podcast. 1866 01:30:04.520 --> 01:30:07.079 I would like next email comes from Owen in Minnesota. 1867 01:30:07.319 --> 01:30:09.399 I'd like to post a distinction in this live action 1868 01:30:09.600 --> 01:30:12.880 versus animation debate for the line Kick movies and the like, 1869 01:30:13.399 --> 01:30:16.399 assuming they motion capture the actress for the scenes, even 1870 01:30:16.520 --> 01:30:19.920 just their faces, I would say that is live action. 1871 01:30:20.960 --> 01:30:24.159 I'm in the same vein. Would you consider the Blue 1872 01:30:24.199 --> 01:30:27.920 People on Avatar animated or the Incredible Hulk in the MCU. 1873 01:30:28.239 --> 01:30:32.640 Owen from Minnesota, It's all I'm complicated, everything's ana. 1874 01:30:32.760 --> 01:30:35.760 I'm animated. Right now. You're not actually looking at me. 1875 01:30:36.039 --> 01:30:39.239 You're looking at a bunch of pixels and lights shining 1876 01:30:39.279 --> 01:30:42.199 on your screen, flickering at a certain frame rate to 1877 01:30:42.239 --> 01:30:45.119 make it look like I'm there. Right, It's all. 1878 01:30:45.319 --> 01:30:51.159 Well, so animation. You can't use raw motion capture in 1879 01:30:51.319 --> 01:30:53.920 order to display something on screen, especially in as saying 1880 01:30:54.279 --> 01:30:57.239 as high quality as a movie, but even in video games, 1881 01:30:57.359 --> 01:31:00.319 you need to do in between animations in order to 1882 01:31:00.399 --> 01:31:03.880 clean up the motion capture. So they are adding animation 1883 01:31:04.279 --> 01:31:06.920 to whatever the motion capture already is. So yeah, it's 1884 01:31:07.000 --> 01:31:07.680 it's animating. 1885 01:31:07.720 --> 01:31:10.119 Maybe that's an algorithm that does that these days sometimes, 1886 01:31:10.159 --> 01:31:10.720 but sure. 1887 01:31:10.680 --> 01:31:13.760 Yeah, oh god, yeah, animators have it rough nowadays because yeah, 1888 01:31:13.960 --> 01:31:17.000 AI is I literally just listened to you on some 1889 01:31:17.199 --> 01:31:21.159 tech podcasts where because that was and Nvidia had as 1890 01:31:21.239 --> 01:31:23.680 part of their thing at GDC. I think of they 1891 01:31:23.720 --> 01:31:26.359 are literally just yeah, gonna have AI do in between 1892 01:31:26.399 --> 01:31:30.840 stuff nowadays. And yeah, but but it is adding to 1893 01:31:31.000 --> 01:31:32.720 the raw data those there. So I would say it's 1894 01:31:33.359 --> 01:31:33.560 but this. 1895 01:31:33.680 --> 01:31:35.520 Isn't really helping the Lion King thing because it's not 1896 01:31:35.640 --> 01:31:41.960 like that's performance capture. I don't, I mean, they weren't. 1897 01:31:42.039 --> 01:31:43.680 I know that they Here's what I remember from The 1898 01:31:43.720 --> 01:31:47.640 Lion King is that who's the director, John John Favreau. 1899 01:31:47.960 --> 01:31:49.720 I thought they shot down on the volume and that's 1900 01:31:49.720 --> 01:31:52.159 why he wanted to use it for Mandalorian And they 1901 01:31:52.239 --> 01:31:55.600 had like actors on the volume, like pretending to be lions. 1902 01:31:55.680 --> 01:31:58.039 I thought, Gosh, I don't know like the. 1903 01:31:58.039 --> 01:32:00.520 Behind the scenes stuff I've seen. I just remember seeing 1904 01:32:00.560 --> 01:32:02.439 Donald Glover and Beyonce in a vo booth. 1905 01:32:02.720 --> 01:32:07.000 Okay, I could be wrong. I vaguely remember like learning that, 1906 01:32:07.199 --> 01:32:08.920 but maybe that's not exactly how it went out. But 1907 01:32:09.079 --> 01:32:09.279 got it. 1908 01:32:09.720 --> 01:32:12.960 Even if your performance quote unquote performance capture that you 1909 01:32:13.039 --> 01:32:15.680 are still working from very little to turn that into 1910 01:32:16.359 --> 01:32:19.680 a lion, then we know. So let's say we just 1911 01:32:19.800 --> 01:32:23.119 consider that animation then and then well, now we have 1912 01:32:23.199 --> 01:32:26.319 two anime linking movies. We need a way to distinguish them. Still, 1913 01:32:27.840 --> 01:32:30.079 you know, it's gonna be fine because all these live 1914 01:32:30.119 --> 01:32:32.840 action remakes they have, despite making a lot of money, 1915 01:32:33.079 --> 01:32:37.319 sometimes they have very little sting power into public consciousness. Anyways, 1916 01:32:37.359 --> 01:32:39.039 in ten years, we don't have to think about the 1917 01:32:39.199 --> 01:32:41.199 live action linking movie no more. 1918 01:32:42.000 --> 01:32:45.520 Yeah, God, I like definitely like forgot about Maleficent, And 1919 01:32:45.800 --> 01:32:47.479 I was seeing like like a bunch of these listened 1920 01:32:47.479 --> 01:32:49.000 the other day. I'm like, oh, yeah, that they did 1921 01:32:49.079 --> 01:32:51.279 a Cinderella. Forgot about that? 1922 01:32:51.479 --> 01:32:54.680 Hey, y'all, y'all remember they made a Kuela movie they made. 1923 01:32:55.960 --> 01:32:59.000 I mean, there was that Alison Winnerland remake with Johnny Depp, 1924 01:32:59.000 --> 01:33:00.600 and it made all his big money. I remember all 1925 01:33:00.640 --> 01:33:02.520 the Disney podcasts like, Wow, maybe they have to start 1926 01:33:02.600 --> 01:33:05.119 using these versions of the characters going forward because this 1927 01:33:05.199 --> 01:33:07.920 is what's popular now. Again, there's so there's there's no 1928 01:33:08.840 --> 01:33:09.800 longevity there. 1929 01:33:09.960 --> 01:33:11.960 That was just the first That was just the first 1930 01:33:12.000 --> 01:33:13.279 three D movie after Avatar. 1931 01:33:13.680 --> 01:33:16.079 Yeah, because didn't take any money because yeah. 1932 01:33:16.079 --> 01:33:17.039 No one saw that sequel. 1933 01:33:17.239 --> 01:33:21.840 Yep, all right, folks, I'm not down. I'm not bagging 1934 01:33:21.880 --> 01:33:24.119 on Corella. I actually enjoyed it. It was funny that 1935 01:33:24.199 --> 01:33:25.760 those Dalmatians did kill her. 1936 01:33:27.760 --> 01:33:30.479 It's so funny. It's so funny that she actually has 1937 01:33:30.560 --> 01:33:36.840 a vendetta against the Dalmatians. In Villain's Curse Cafe, a 1938 01:33:36.960 --> 01:33:39.479 different villain said like, oh, what are you some kind 1939 01:33:39.520 --> 01:33:42.079 of pet? And then the game's like ooh, Corrella's ears 1940 01:33:42.119 --> 01:33:43.840 perked at that, and then she looked at me like 1941 01:33:43.960 --> 01:33:46.319 she wanted to skin me and turn me into a coat. 1942 01:33:46.640 --> 01:33:51.039 So that was good. Uh, all right, we got a 1943 01:33:51.159 --> 01:33:55.159 question about chairs from John from Greece, My dearest, Sweetest 1944 01:33:55.239 --> 01:33:57.560 Bomb Crew.

He will tell you about all the 1954 01:34:26.880 --> 01:34:30.319 ways to find what are those very popular ar Mi Killer, 1955 01:34:30.720 --> 01:34:35.560 Herman Miller, Aaron chairs. And the offices are always throwing 1956 01:34:35.600 --> 01:34:38.000 these out. Offices are not being populated these days, so 1957 01:34:38.119 --> 01:34:40.319 a lot of these are just kind of being given away, 1958 01:34:40.399 --> 01:34:42.760 and they're fifteen hundred dollars otherwise, you know, if you 1959 01:34:42.880 --> 01:34:47.119 go to buy it new, So scour Facebook, Marketplace, Craigslist, 1960 01:34:47.199 --> 01:34:49.520 all these other things and try to get a used 1961 01:34:50.000 --> 01:34:53.840 airon chair. That's probably probably a good move for you. Also, 1962 01:34:53.960 --> 01:34:56.000 like there's a lot of knockoffs now that are pretty good. 1963 01:34:56.359 --> 01:34:59.399 These gamers chairs. Tell you what my butt hurts right now? 1964 01:34:59.520 --> 01:34:59.720 Yeah? 1965 01:34:59.800 --> 01:34:59.880 Right? 1966 01:35:00.199 --> 01:35:03.560 Don't buy a gaming chair unless you're getting known as 1967 01:35:03.640 --> 01:35:08.079 part of being a media person.
