Rad game, and a huge part of my teen years. Capcom did some sweet games in those days. I'm actually quite sad you didn't get to level third, the dedicated Cadillac driving level.

We're not done with this one, so it's still possible!

So this week, we remember FredMSloniker, who either is or is not dead. He requested a bunch of games when we first started doing this thing, and I think with this, we finally got all 15 of the games he's ever requested. It's NBA Jam, and boy, Nick and Kyle are poo poo at it.

I had some version of NBA Jam on Sega when I was a kid. I remember having codes to play as Bill Clinton, leaping twenty feet in the air, flipping like a maniac, and shattering the backboard every other minute. It's clear that none of this stuck with me into adulthood.

God dammit, Nick, why didn't we look up that code? The episode would have been good if we did that!

Anyhow, speaking good episodes, about a year ago, we played a game called, "Battle Balls" and our lives have never been the same. In fact, this is the only game that we've gone back to on the show. . so far. It's Battle Balls . . . Again!

Witches and Clowns. Man this show has some stupid tropes. This game probably took the logic that "Ninja Baseball Batman" used to make their game, and decided to combine two words that no one wanted to see together, and we got Ninja Clowns.

This was actually requested by Hoss Corncave, and probably a while ago. You know, when we were going to play this, I realized there is an unusually large amount of on rail light gun shooters for the Jurassic Park series. I think they even came out with a new one pretty recently.

Also, this is probably our worst episode ever. Kyle ruined it by getting way too drunk.

Yeah, here's the website and everything. Only Kyle is on the hook for actually showing up and doing stuff, but I assure you both Nick and Kyle will at least be there. Keith. . . is a fucko, and I hope he swings down to VA for a day or two.

Anyhow, for some reason I got made a moderator of one of the panels. I don't know why, but I am. It's about "The Best of Youtube", so I guess I'm gonna shill my stuff and my friend's things.

Virtual On. So if you go to Japan, and check out any arcade, chances are you're gonna see entire floors or sections dedicated to Gundam related games.

Since everyone couldn't get the license to make Gundam stuff, you had things like Virtual On which came out. I remember seeing this game on occasion at some arcades as a kid, and they even ported it to the Sega Dreamcast. I don't really know why they ported it, since the Dreamcast didn't have two joysticks, so it was stupid as poo poo to play. Anyhow, check it out.

Anyhow, it's Roadblasters, which was requested by our very own Danger Pumpkin. At least, I think this is what was requested, apparently there are two games called Road Blaster, one by Atari and the other by Data East. This is the Atari version, and likely the one that Danger was referring to, but you can never be sure!

Perhaps next session we'll pull out the Data East version. . . Even though it's a dreaded Laser Disk game.

Alright, so this game has a few names, but the version we played and know it as, is "Princess Clara Daisakusen."

Apparently, we learned that these are part of the "Fighter Instinct" series of games, which includes the "Groove on Fight" game that we played on the show before. So that's weird bit of canon I didn't really expect to learn about this game.

Well, I done dropped the ball, but not in the way you might think. I had a job today scheduled from 8am-12pm, plenty of time to get back and throw up the episode. Long story short, I can't decide whether I like or dislike labor unions.

Anyhow, Domino Man. A game that makes me wonder if we should have at least one person learn how to play these games before we boot them up, so that we have some semblance of competence. Usually we all go in blind, so our reactions can be raw and authentic, but this leaves us unaware of key features of the game.

Oh well, we've admitted to being bad at our jobs in the past.
