I can see how people enjoy it. My problem is that I think everyone should be a little ashamed of anything that they like a lot. For instance, if you ever have to talk about how you're obsessed with (for example) playing pokemon, you should feel embarrassed about who you are as a person and not just open up a torrent of information about it. I've noticed this trend with "nerdom" these days where people will post pictures of their wedding where everyone was dressed up as super heroes, or they're a furry without even an ounce of realization that it's not a normal thing. There, hopefully I haven't alienated too many people.

And with no real segue, here's Devil World by Konami.

This game sucks. Sorry. I really wish it lived up to it's name, but god drat. In fact, some of these "Dead Nick Mondays™" games are games that we'd tried to play in the past but just couldn't get it to work, because they suck.

Alright, someone had actually requested this a few weeks back, but we'd already recorded it, here is "I'm Sorry".

This game is like a Pac-Man style, collect all the items to beat the level while being chased by stuff. There's unfortunately a lot of weird poo poo we didn't get to see, as the game is pretty difficult and upon game-over throws you back to the first level. Still pretty funny game though.

Keith goes full "weeb" on this one.

This was a fun little collection of Wario Ware-styled games that offers little explanation and even less context. It's public knowledge that one takes maximum credit for skill if they win and zero culpability if they lose.

In this episode, we talk about families going on vacations to see natural wonders, and everyone dying in horrible accidents.

Yeah, definitely happy. I'm a big fan of the first game and actually haven't played Snow Bros. 2 much—I didn't even know/remember that there were overly difficult platforming stages like the one you gave up on. But I had to see your reactions to that horrifying character select screen, and they didn't disappoint.

Also, if you're still taking requests (I can't imagine the size of your backlog right now), I'd like to see you do Fixeight.

Edit: Also, My Hero. I keep editing this post because I don't want to be too greedy, especially when there are still other games I requested you haven't gotten around to, but those are both games you probably need to play.

Well, that one was pretty much as I remembered it, somewhat odd flight controls and all. I'd forgotten that it there was no penalty for being killed other than losing time. And one thing that I thought was true then and this seemed to confirm - it was only balanced for the two-player mode, which made single player incredibly difficult. But if I remember rightly the ability to shoot any falling object meant that kill-stealing was totally a thing that happened in two-player.

And I always also thought it was a Japanese game about sinking American ships, but maybe that's not true based on the credits.

Thanks for playing it!

It was everything I could have hoped for and more. I highly encourage you (if you haven't already recorded all of these episodes) to try out every character; they're all either pretty cool (like Kurokishi, the blonde lady you used in this episode) or weird as hell, as you saw with Tulks and his dick-mounted gun holster and flaming sandal kicks.

Apparently with the arcade mode of Power Stone 2, it doesn't require you to kill all the other players, it's a weird story mode where two players can move on. A little strange, but we got something figured out for Head to Head.

UXB is apparently a military acronym for "unexploded bomb".

Given the box art I found of the console ports, I almost expected it to mean Ultra eXtreme Bacon, though.

Hello, guys gals and malevolent self perpetuating AI constructs. Just thought I'd pop in to let y'all know that I fully intend to clean up the sloppy-balls OP once I am back from overseas and with access to a real computer. Besides my natural indolence, I've spent the Summer (pretty much since immediately after the last recording session in July) in Eurasia. Im armed with only the world's worst smartphone and two-step verification locking me out of most services.

I'll be abroad a few more weeks, after which point we hope to get together for a new recording session asap. There will probably be a small hiatus for the LP itself, but we have some particularly novel treats in store for the interim.

Thanks a lot for watching, even though it's a tiny enterprise it's a lot of fun and very gratifying to know someone somewhere is getting something out of our silly-rear end side projects. Kyle is off doing the dark Lord's work so Nick will be in charge of the duty that I abdicated from in a puff if ennui ages ago.

See you stateside, enjoy the last of this session! (However much is ; not sure cuz I'm a gently caress.)
