00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,840
Welcome to Remember 64, where 
this week we're going to party 

2
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:40,400
like it's 1998. 
Welcome to the show, everyone. 

3
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,800
Welcome to Remember 64. 
Whether this is your first time 

4
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:47,440
here or you are a returning 
listener or watcher on our 

5
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,280
YouTube channel at Remember 64. 
My name is David Pitrangelo and 

6
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,040
I don't roll dice when I play 
tabletop games. 

7
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,960
No, I smash them with my head. 
That's right, don't mess with 

8
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,520
this guy. 
He's got a head of steel ready 

9
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,760
to steal your stars. 
Wait, a game of chance That just

10
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,520
screwed me over at the end of 
the game? 

11
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:17,080
Curse you, Millennium Star. 
Who is that guy? 

12
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:21,000
Donkey Kong? 
Donkey Kong? 

13
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,720
Who is the one saving all of us?
Us defending the truth is 

14
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:30,600
looking like a Donkey Kong. 
Donkey Kong Star Warrior Donkey 

15
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:37,240
Kong kicking ass with dismiss 
Star warrior. 

16
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:45,280
Donkey Kong saving you ever. 
He's afraid to give his life. 

17
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:46,960
He don't want to go run from a 
fight. 

18
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:48,840
He's always brave from one. 
Hello for God. 

19
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,600
He's the warrior of the stars. 
He's afraid to give his life. 

20
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,440
He don't want to go run from a 
fight. 

21
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,320
He's always brave from one. 
Hello for God. 

22
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,400
He's the warrior of the stars. 
Star stars. 

23
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,320
Wait, who is this gracing this 
wonderful podcast? 

24
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:23,200
Star Warrior. 
Donkey Kong Wait. 

25
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:23,480
Wait. 
Wait. 

26
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:23,760
Wait. 
Wait. 

27
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:30,520
Ready. 
Well, if that made any sense to 

28
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:31,240
you at all. 
Anybody. 

29
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,480
If you've guessed at all that we
are playing all three of the 

30
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,520
Mario Party titles on the 
Nintendo 64, yes, we are going 

31
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,360
to tackle all three titles. 
We'll be dipping around between 

32
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,720
the games and the different mini
games and the different aspects 

33
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,120
of it and their differences and 
everything. 

34
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:52,120
But we are recording this just 
days or hours really before the 

35
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:57,120
clock hits midnight into 2024. 
So we thought we would party it 

36
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,920
up. 
It's time to chat some Mario 

37
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:04,000
Party jiggy look back slash 
Donkey Kong. 

38
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:06,880
Star Warrior Donkey. 
Star Warrior Donkey Kong. 

39
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,680
Title. 
It's like the title of Doctor, 

40
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,160
like people have worked for 
that, so you gotta give them the

41
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,200
respect. 
Right, I agree. 

42
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,200
I agree you absolutely. 
Donkey Kong worked for that 

43
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:18,400
title. 
Yep, he did. 

44
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,280
He did. 
As we're recording this, if you 

45
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:28,560
are not seen the recording on 
YouTube, we are also showing the

46
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:33,000
Mario Party three-game that we 
played just a few moments ago 

47
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,320
before we hit record to record 
this episode. 

48
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:40,880
So if you want to see us play 
full 35 turns of Mario Party 3 

49
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:45,000
on whatever the desert board is 
called, I can't remember. 

50
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:50,760
It was an epic battle between 
Wario, Luigi, Daisy and Donkey 

51
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:55,040
Kong and it's it was pretty 
interesting and pretty rattling 

52
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,440
at times too, I think, don't you
think? 

53
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,160
Oh yeah, for sure. 
And ironically, I was not Donkey

54
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,520
Kong, I was actually Daisy. 
Because we did Random. 

55
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,320
We closed our eyes and selected 
our characters. 

56
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:15,360
And yeah, so it's very, it's 
very infuriating. 

57
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,800
It's, it's. 
Yeah, every time I play Mario 

58
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,680
Party, I always. 
I'm in love with the idea of 

59
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:23,840
Mario Party. 
Sure. 

60
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,920
And then I actually play Mario 
Party with my friends, and then 

61
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,400
I just end up being mad at them.
That's what happens. 

62
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:35,000
That is, that is the definition 
or one of the definitions of 

63
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,800
this series or this franchise in
general. 

64
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,240
I think. 
I think that's very common that 

65
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,480
that's the. 
Feeling and the one, the only 

66
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,520
other game I've ever played that
makes me feel the same as Mario 

67
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,480
Party is the game Munchkin, and 
it's actually a board game. 

68
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,800
Oh, that's a great game. 
That is a good game. 

69
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:54,760
Love that game. 
But at the same time it I 

70
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,360
affectionately refer to it as 
the game that ruins friendships 

71
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,680
because I you just get so I 
don't know about you but when 

72
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,520
I'm playing a board game with my
friends I sit there and we 

73
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:11,680
really read into the cards and 
what they do It's it's it's a 

74
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,840
thing we argue about it We're 
like no, it doesn't say that. 

75
00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:19,200
It doesn't say you can you can 
take away armor it says you can 

76
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,640
hit. 
So if I have armor, I'm protect.

77
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,200
You know, it's like things like 
that and Mario Party. 

78
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:32,000
It's not technical like that. 
It's more like the bonus stars. 

79
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:36,400
And OK, so for example, here's, 
here's the thing. 

80
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:41,720
Here's the perfect example of 
encapsulating the bull crap that

81
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,880
is Mario Party. 
OK you play. 

82
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,360
I'm playing this game. 
I'm streaming it, right. 

83
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,600
I'm playing Mario Party. 
I I think it was three. 

84
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,120
I think it was 3 on stream. 
I did two and three recently, 

85
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,320
right. 
Join my community By the way if 

86
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,120
you ever want to live stream 
Dave's, Dave's, come on. 

87
00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,280
We've played some games. 
It's fun. 

88
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:01,600
We do like community game 
nights. 

89
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:07,080
So anytime we want to do that 
anyways, we're playing and one 

90
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:11,920
of my community members, I got a
three on the first turn. 

91
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,640
OK, I'm real like 3 peasant, you
know? 

92
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:20,720
And he walks three steps hidden 
block star. 

93
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:27,440
He gets a star on his first turn
with a crappy roll and that was 

94
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,760
bull crap. 
I literally got out of my chair,

95
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,600
walked behind and paced back and
forth, flailing my arms like 

96
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:38,840
this game is bull crap. 
Man, something like that. 

97
00:06:38,840 --> 00:06:41,160
That we still had fun. 
Oh yeah, And and that. 

98
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,600
That's the crazy thing, right? 
It's like, is ridiculous. 

99
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,760
Things happen like that, but you
still have fun with it. 

100
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,760
So Oh yeah, it's it's that 
weird. 

101
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,160
It's that weird sort of mix 
between all that. 

102
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,320
Like, it's hard not to have fun 
while the craziness is 

103
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,000
happening. 
But I can understand why it's 

104
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,560
also rattling as well, right? 
Like there's something about it.

105
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,520
And, you know, there's something
about the fact that they 

106
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,960
introduced a lot of that luck 
stuff later on which I didn't 

107
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,480
realize. 
I kind of didn't really remember

108
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,120
that A lot of the luck and the 
randomness kind of came into 

109
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,920
play in three, which is the one 
that I played the most and the 

110
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,760
one that I owned growing up. 
So, Jiggy, get that. 

111
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:25,720
Get that sound board ready. 
Because you know what time it 

112
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,440
is, Sir. 
You know what time it is. 

113
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,880
Let's bust out the history 
books, everyone. 

114
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:40,600
We're heading back to 199899 and
2001 for all three of these 

115
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,880
games. 
Yes, let's talk about Mario 

116
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,040
Party. 
When it comes to the sort of 

117
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,520
the, the development and the 
history of them, it is we're 

118
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,080
we're pretty much going to talk 
about the first one because that

119
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,480
gets kind of how things, you 
know, were iterated on. 

120
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:54,960
That's where it began and 
everything. 

121
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,360
Hudson Soft is the development 
team. 

122
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,200
When I was looking up research. 
You know, this is one of those 

123
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,560
logos and those companies that 
you saw all around Nintendo at 

124
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,000
this time, especially for this 
series. 

125
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,720
This is kind of interesting 
because they used to hold what 

126
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,840
were called caravan tours, where
consoles and games would get set

127
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,320
up in like temporary places and 
they would hold mini 

128
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,600
competitions for kids. 
And if you don't know what a 

129
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,240
Caravan tour is for anyone 
that's younger than us and just 

130
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,040
trying to be like, wait, what do
you mean caravan? 

131
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:29,840
Like the unlike a horse and 
buggy kind of thing. 

132
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,400
Think of a pop up shop but for 
gaming. 

133
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:37,159
That's essentially what it was. 
Did you ever you're you're, it 

134
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:38,640
does, right? 
You're you're younger than me. 

135
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,600
But did any of these things ever
pop up when you were Yeah I see 

136
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,840
pop up when you were younger. 
Did you ever experience anything

137
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,640
like these caravan tour things? 
Not even specifically for this 

138
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:52,000
game, but just in general? 
No, I I don't think so. 

139
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,560
I I feel like I would. 
I would remember this. 

140
00:08:54,560 --> 00:08:57,080
No, I did not. 
No, I did not. 

141
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,080
That sounds awesome, though. 
I mean, I definitely was alive 

142
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,480
at that time and was playing 
N64. 

143
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,400
So yeah, yeah, I don't know. 
It was. 

144
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,040
It really got popularized when 
it was like the Nintendo versus 

145
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,880
Sega with Genesis and SNES. 
Like that was oh, sure, they 

146
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,400
were pumping them out there all 
the time. 

147
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,080
It was a very big thing for Sega
to pull off around that time. 

148
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,560
And I think as technology went 
on and and you know, more 

149
00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:22,760
consoles were out there and 
everything, it became less and 

150
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,560
less of a thing. 
And they were just in stores a 

151
00:09:26,560 --> 00:09:30,400
lot more than they were before. 
So I think by the time 2000, by 

152
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,840
the time 98 came around, like 
all that kind of stuff, it was 

153
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:34,960
at the tail end of when these 
things were popular. 

154
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,440
But that's what they did. 
That's that was one of the 

155
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,840
reasons why Nintendo picked them
to do this is because they said,

156
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:46,560
oh, you have an idea for like a 
way to to make games, a party or

157
00:09:46,560 --> 00:09:49,880
a competition. 
Let's use you as the company 

158
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:54,400
that's going to create a Super 
Mario board game, essentially is

159
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,640
what it was. 
And that's basically what the 

160
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,720
idea was. 
What an interesting concept, I 

161
00:09:58,760 --> 00:09:59,880
know. 
I think because if you think 

162
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:02,720
about it like we take Mario 
Party for granted because it's 

163
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,720
that silly party game. 
Everyone's like let's play Mario

164
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:12,400
Party and the concept of it, 
it's essentially trying to think

165
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,040
of board games that are like 
this. 

166
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:21,000
It's it's like Candyland or or 
you know something you you you 

167
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,360
roll, you go spaces something 
happens. 

168
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:25,920
You know, not necessarily a 
card, but. 

169
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,920
You know, like trouble. 
Sorry. 

170
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:29,120
Sorry is a good one. 
Yeah. 

171
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:30,240
Sorry is a good one. 
Yeah. 

172
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,240
But yeah, I just think what an 
interesting concept translating 

173
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:38,440
a a game into a board game. 
I I I was half listening. 

174
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,400
Did was there any concept of a 
board game before Mario 

175
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,000
characters? 
Like was it there? 

176
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:49,720
So yeah, so Hudsonsoft and 
Nintendo, they went to 

177
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:54,240
Hudsonsoft and asked, can you 
make a game like this? 

178
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:59,520
Because we want to make a family
friendly game that includes 4 

179
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,840
players for this console that's 
going to be coming out or that 

180
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,120
just released. 
And we want to find a way to 

181
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,960
make a type of game that will 
involve 4 players, kids can play

182
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:10,680
and we want to feel like a board
game. 

183
00:11:10,680 --> 00:11:14,080
So the idea was to have a feel 
like a board game but not 

184
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:18,040
necessarily specifically a top 
down board game type thing and 

185
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:19,760
then they wanted to incorporate 
many games. 

186
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,360
So the idea was kind of already 
there. 

187
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,480
It was just a matter of like, 
how do we make it happen 

188
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,280
essentially and they and they. 
Found always intended. 

189
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:29,960
It was always intended to have 
Mario. 

190
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:31,840
It was always intended to be 
Mario characters. 

191
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,080
Yeah. 
So Hudson Soft had, I think they

192
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:38,840
what from what I saw, they had a
a plan to make a party board 

193
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,280
game. 
But then Nintendo said hey let's

194
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,120
use, let's use you, your 
developers, let's use your skill

195
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,320
and let's make it a Mario one. 
And they kind of went from 

196
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,280
there. 
So it sounds like it was sort of

197
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,920
a they were kind of on the same 
page and they just sort of like 

198
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,160
work together, kind of make it 
happen. 

199
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,200
It really doesn't seem like 
there was some, you know, tough 

200
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,320
time to make it happen. 
It was like, hey, you have good 

201
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,480
ideas, You've been doing cool 
things that are very, you know, 

202
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:06,000
group and competition oriented. 
Let's turn this idea into an 

203
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,280
actual series or at least into a
single game at this point. 

204
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,280
Yeah. 
So one of the things I found 

205
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,160
that was interesting, I'm going 
to say these names wrong. 

206
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:19,080
So forgive me, but Shishiro 
Nishaya is how I heard it 

207
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,640
pronounced online. 
I don't know if that's true, but

208
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,160
anyways, this guy works at 
Nintendo and has been part of 

209
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:29,160
the Mario Party series since the
first one still works there. 

210
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,320
It's there from the since the 
first one, yeah, which is 

211
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,440
awesome. 
So that's 25 years at this 

212
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:38,440
point, almost 26. 
And in a WADA Asks interview, he

213
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,440
says we always wanted to make a 
game like Mario Party the whole 

214
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,680
family could could enjoy during 
the holidays. 

215
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,720
So we needed rules that would be
easy for anyone to understand. 

216
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,960
So they were looking for a 
particular type of game for a 

217
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,520
particular kind of year when you
know, families would get 

218
00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:00,120
together more than the average, 
you know, time of year. 

219
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,400
So we're at the tail end of 2023
as we record this, we are 

220
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,480
technically still in the holiday
season. 

221
00:13:06,680 --> 00:13:09,400
We've, you know, most people or 
a lot of people have seen 

222
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,640
family. 
This would be one of those games

223
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,520
that they wanted to make sure 
that everybody was playing. 

224
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,040
And I think that's exactly what 
these things were. 

225
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,240
Right, at least for me. 
I don't know. 

226
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,360
But for you. 
Yeah, pretty much. 

227
00:13:20,680 --> 00:13:25,880
I mean, not I I played through 
one quite a bit growing up. 

228
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,480
I definitely was. 
You know that kid I I did play 

229
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:30,720
by myself. 
Me too. 

230
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,640
I did enjoy it. 
I I would find myself trying to 

231
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,280
unlock all the mini games so 
that when my friends came over, 

232
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,560
we had all the mini games or we 
could see all the mini games in 

233
00:13:39,560 --> 00:13:42,160
the multiplayer kind of scope it
out. 

234
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,120
But yeah, oops, you know, it's 
fun. 

235
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,120
I did read an interesting fact 
because when we were playing 

236
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,480
earlier, I mentioned Sonic 
Shuffle, which is a Dreamcast 

237
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,880
game, which is a Sonic 
equivalent of Mario Party. 

238
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,960
Sort of. 
It's it's different, it's it's 

239
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,800
similar. 
And if you looked at the cover 

240
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,840
without playing it, you'd be 
like, oh that's Mario Party but 

241
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,520
with Sonic. 
And yes, but it's got more of a 

242
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:10,240
gimmick with like card a card 
like trading card system. 

243
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:11,680
Oh, interesting. 
OK. 

244
00:14:11,680 --> 00:14:14,520
Yeah, it's it's weird. 
It's weird. 

245
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,960
It's not as good as Mario Party.
It's not as it's not as easy to 

246
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,920
understand and just get into. 
It's not bad. 

247
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,920
It's just not great. 
But I did find that Hudson Soft 

248
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,840
did in fact make Sonic Shuffle 
as well. 

249
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,800
Oh, cool. 
OK, which? 

250
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,640
That was a a cool little call 
back because you're, you know, 

251
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,160
you make that connection, you 
don't realize oh it is the same 

252
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:37,160
company. 
Right. 

253
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:37,880
OK. 
Interesting. 

254
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:39,000
And that would have been, you 
know? 

255
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,840
Moved over to the competition. 
Yeah, well, cause 'cause Mario 

256
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,680
Party Three came out in 2001, 
like we've discussed before, we 

257
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,560
hit record. 
That's a very late release. 

258
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,800
Mario Party Three came out in 
the spring of 2001. 

259
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:57,360
The GameCube was out like less 
than six months later so or 

260
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:01,400
about six months later. 
So it was a late release for me.

261
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,760
Mario Party three I know I 
owned, I think I rented one and 

262
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,720
two a decent amount, but I 
obviously I never had a 

263
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,920
GameCube. 
So I played three into with with

264
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,360
into the life cycle of the 
GameCube like that that I play 

265
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,720
Mario Party three more than any 
of the other ones and that's the

266
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,240
one that we played together and 
like that's where they 

267
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,520
introduced a lot of the chance 
and everything. 

268
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:27,840
So Miyuki Hirose is again 
probably screwed that up. 

269
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:32,280
But she worked on. 
Yeah yeah, she worked on three 

270
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,080
and talked about. 
I found another quote from an 

271
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:39,120
Askawata interview that said if 
someone like me who is not very 

272
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,960
good at playing video games kept
losing, that wouldn't be very 

273
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,840
fun. 
But even when I can win, 

274
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,360
sometimes that's fun. 
So that's one of the ideas as to

275
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,640
why they introduced all the 
chance stuff in it. 

276
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:51,600
Oh. 
OK. 

277
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,080
Yeah, it was more just to sort 
of like balance the scales a 

278
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,000
little bit. 
So it wasn't just on skill and. 

279
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,160
You know, this is the problem 
with games today, OK? 

280
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,280
In, in my day, when you were bad
at the game, you were bad. 

281
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,480
We didn't, we didn't cater to 
that. 

282
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,840
You know, that's the problem 
with things, Mario. 

283
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:09,560
Kart. 
Has this now? 

284
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,880
Smash Bros, like, the whole 
premise of Ultimate was to make 

285
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:19,080
Smash Bros Ultimate. 
Like, they cater to beginner 

286
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,480
players. 
So anyone could come in, pick it

287
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,520
up and play it and, you know, 
get good. 

288
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,120
It's like, yes, there's a place 
for that. 

289
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,880
There's a place for that, of 
course, But I also think there 

290
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,040
should be a hardcore mode where 
you have to be good and have to 

291
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,040
have skill. 
OK, Because that's the mode I 

292
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:41,200
would play because the whole 
Chance thing like, I'm sorry, 

293
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,640
I'm not doing it. 
So, yeah, so it's not you, you. 

294
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,960
OK, so we we played a full game 
of three. 

295
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:51,960
Obviously, you played it a bit 
when you were growing up and 

296
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,240
stuff. 
Would you prefer us to not have 

297
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:56,760
had that? 
Like, we just stopped playing 

298
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,200
like half an hour ago or 
something? 

299
00:16:58,200 --> 00:16:59,840
Right. 
Would you have preferred that 

300
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:03,360
that just didn't exist at all or
like maybe there was less of it 

301
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,480
or something? 
Because I'm with you, like you 

302
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,800
say back in my day I didn't 
have, you know, you had to get 

303
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,839
good. 
What about back in my day, man? 

304
00:17:10,839 --> 00:17:14,280
What about like even, you know, 
5678 years prior to that? 

305
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,800
There was no mercy whatsoever, 
right? 

306
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,359
Right. 
You know, but you, you feel a 

307
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,720
sense of accomplishment, you 
know, and I'm, I'm not saying 

308
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,760
that Mario Party is that game in
particular, but I like bonus 

309
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:30,200
stars. 
I think that's a cool thing and 

310
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,360
it can shake up the game and I 
think that's as far as the 

311
00:17:33,360 --> 00:17:39,680
chance element goes for me, OK? 
I think hidden blocks are bull 

312
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,280
crap because someone could just 
randomly land on a space and the

313
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,640
game decides, oh you get a star.
Yeah, which I got and it's I got

314
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,720
nerd, yeah, yeah. 
Well, like the again, going back

315
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:54,120
to the three space role that the
one guy had and he landed and 

316
00:17:54,120 --> 00:17:57,960
got a star on his first turn. 
I'm like, how can you, how can 

317
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,760
you compete with that? 
If the game's catering to it? 

318
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:06,920
And I really feel like the game 
caters to the CPU and like if if

319
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,080
it's four players like it feels 
more balanced. 

320
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:14,600
But if it's CPU, the CPU's feel 
like some mini games, especially

321
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,320
if they're like guessing mini 
games or. 

322
00:18:17,360 --> 00:18:20,000
Yeah, how you supposed to like? 
Yeah, you can't. 

323
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,640
You can't compete. 
You just have to. 

324
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,600
You have to chance it. 
Well, I think you know, because 

325
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,840
they're so fast, even on normal 
difficulty. 

326
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,240
Yeah, yeah, I I think, yeah, we 
played on normal difficulty. 

327
00:18:29,360 --> 00:18:31,000
I think if we played hard we 
would have got our butt. 

328
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:32,480
Our butts whooped probably. 
At least I. 

329
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:33,240
Would. 
Oh, definitely. 

330
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,000
Yeah. 
I would not dare to go hard. 

331
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:41,520
Yeah, yeah. 
The The thing is, is like, 

332
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,880
there's still skill in those 
mini games, right? 

333
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:49,440
It's still there, but when you 
get those like hidden blocks, 

334
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,840
like you said, like something 
like that feels feels cheap, 

335
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,600
whether it's at the beginning or
at the end. 

336
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:59,040
Either way, and I think why it's
annoying is because it's games 

337
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,120
like, let's say Mario Kart, 
let's call it a Mario Kart, a 

338
00:19:02,120 --> 00:19:05,520
lot of racing games from this 
era and especially earlier than 

339
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,480
this. 
There's the rubber banding, 

340
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,320
right? 
Like they find a way for those 

341
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:14,200
carts and those racers as as a 
perfect example as to why. 

342
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,080
They just try to tighten up the 
lead a little bit so things are 

343
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,120
more exciting and I understand 
why they do that. 

344
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,720
But that works better in a 
racing game, even if it's not 

345
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:25,880
great. 
I don't love that feeling, but 

346
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,640
it makes more sense because 
that's in constant motion, in 

347
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,240
constant action. 
Whereas with this you're 

348
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,720
stopping and going, stopping and
going, oh, it's chance because 

349
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,520
you landed on something or you 
just happened to get a three 

350
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,640
instead of A7 when you needed 
the seven. 

351
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,400
Like things like that. 
Like there's much more 

352
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,800
variability in this that you 
know you'll never have control 

353
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,920
over. 
And I I I guess it makes things 

354
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:55,200
a little bit more exciting but 
it also is adds to the potential

355
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,360
frustration of it right. 
Like that's that's the problem 

356
00:19:58,360 --> 00:20:02,240
and I'm OK. 
But like like with someone like 

357
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,680
closing in on your lead and 
getting more coins or an extra 

358
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,880
star towards those last ten 
turns. 

359
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,640
I I I find that fun. 
That's interesting. 

360
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,720
Why? 
Why have a blowout win at all 

361
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,360
times? 
I don't think that's that's very

362
00:20:13,360 --> 00:20:16,680
fun. 
But once you have that CPU 

363
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,320
involved, you're right. 
Once you have Warrior and Luigi 

364
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,200
that we were playing against, 
it's like, well, why? 

365
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,000
Why all of a sudden does does 
Luigi have almost 200 coins in 

366
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:29,400
the last like five turns? 
Yeah, and I I can't help but 

367
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,000
always feel targeted by CPUs 
because they'll get all the 

368
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:37,080
sudden booze or something that 
can steal my coins, and they'll 

369
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,400
steal all my coins. 
They'll get a battle mode where 

370
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:45,200
my 80 coins that I've worked so 
hard to collect, all of a sudden

371
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:50,280
they get all of them in one foul
swoop and it's it just feels 

372
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:54,520
wrong. 
And I think looking at it from a

373
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,520
rubber banding perspective sort 
of makes sense. 

374
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,600
But at the same time, if you're 
looking at Mario Kart, which 

375
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:03,880
also has a similar thing, if 
you're in last place, you get 

376
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,880
the better items. 
Yeah, if you're in first place, 

377
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,080
you're just getting coins or or 
maybe a banana or something, 

378
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:12,800
something basic that can only 
help you a tiny bit, maybe not 

379
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,240
at all. 
That makes sense to me. 

380
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,520
But at the same time, there's 
that element of skill, because 

381
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,480
you're in first place, you're 
not getting the good items. 

382
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,080
How are you still in first place
if they're getting good items? 

383
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,600
Because you're right. 
You know the game you're really,

384
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,920
you know you're pushing the 
mechanics to the limit, whereas 

385
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,040
Mario Party, the mechanics 
aren't there necessarily. 

386
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,400
You could win like for example I
got the mini game star when we 

387
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:37,800
played. 
Yeah yeah I. 

388
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:42,320
So that demonstrates to me that 
I had the most skill as far as 

389
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,200
the mini games went. 
But there are so many games that

390
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,360
are complete chance that I would
lose, you know? 

391
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,800
And it's it. 
It kind of sucks when they're 

392
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,640
all complete chance because you 
have for every great mini game, 

393
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,360
I feel like there's like you'll 
have two or three great mini 

394
00:21:57,360 --> 00:22:00,760
games and then you have like 5 
bad mini games. 

395
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,520
Like a good handful that are 
bullshit, yeah. 

396
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,000
Yeah, it's just and it's not 
even that they're not fun. 

397
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:11,200
Like they can be fun if you mix 
it up and put, you know, just 

398
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:12,960
lesson streamlined it a little 
bit. 

399
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:17,960
We were kind of talking about 
about this one, two and three. 

400
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,720
One I played the most, three he 
played the most. 

401
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:27,840
And I found that out of playing 
all of those, two to me feels 

402
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:32,160
the best because it feels 
everything about the first one 

403
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:36,560
streamlined a little bit more. 
I I don't know what the mini 

404
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,160
game count is, if it's 
different, if they, I'm sure 

405
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,720
they just added a couple, I'm 
sure that's all it is. 

406
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,720
And plus they have costumes, 
which is the Segway to. 

407
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,040
I don't know if you mentioned it
because I didn't hear if you 

408
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:50,880
mentioned it. 
We hinted at it. 

409
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,560
We're dressed up. 
For no reason. 

410
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,040
It's just a party. 
I got I got my Mario hat that is

411
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,040
squeezing my head and making my 
the top of my head sweat like a 

412
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:03,480
like a like Donkey Kong would be
sweating in the desert right now

413
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,600
and and if anyone is not 
watching you have to see the the

414
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,960
Donkey Kong onesie that my 
friend here has. 

415
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,480
Yes, I'm wearing a full Donkey 
Kong onesie right now. 

416
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,240
It is excellent. 
It is excellent. 

417
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:18,720
My my stupid hat that I bought, 
I want to say a decade ago for a

418
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,480
Halloween party that happened on
like November 3rd or something. 

419
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,280
So I got it for like 4 bucks, 
you know, like super discount 

420
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,440
kind of thing. 
That's what I'm wearing. 

421
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,680
So is it the same? 
I would say no. 

422
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,240
I would say no, but. 
This onesie is very comfortable,

423
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:34,920
though it would say it's like so
comfy. 

424
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,320
I I am the opposite of 
comfortable. 

425
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,200
It's not a Velcro tie. 
I don't have a tie. 

426
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,880
I have a sweaty head and that's 
about it. 

427
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:43,960
Oh man. 
I may. 

428
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,280
Honestly, I may have to. 
Think like sweaty head. 

429
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,160
I may have to take this thing 
off, like my head cannot 

430
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,160
breathe. 
It's so my the elastic is so 

431
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,960
tight on my tight head and I got
headphones on and I'm just like,

432
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,200
Oh my God, my head. 
Yeah, makes it even tighter. 

433
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,520
My head is too big. 
It's like The Simpsons episode 

434
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,720
where Homer gets, like, really 
large. 

435
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,400
It's like you. 
Your fingers are too fat for 

436
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,280
this dial tone. 
This hat is too small for my 

437
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:07,800
fathead. 
That's what this is. 

438
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,360
Oh man, it is. 
It's brutal. 

439
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:10,760
Mario Party. 
Yeah. 

440
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:14,360
So by the way, what were we 
talking about? 

441
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,200
I so I'm. 
I'm looking through some of 

442
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:18,960
like, we're talking about the 
mini games and stuff like that. 

443
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,080
I'm looking through some of the 
just like screenshots to remind 

444
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,400
myself of some of the games that
maybe we didn't play or ones you

445
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,400
know, that I didn't get to play 
when I I played one. 

446
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:28,640
Do you have a favorite mini 
game? 

447
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:30,400
So I wanted to get to that. 
Yeah. 

448
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,640
I think honestly, as I'm looking
through the screenshots and 

449
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:39,240
everything, as much as I have 
the most nostalgia for three for

450
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,360
Mario Party 3, because I owned 
it, like I said, I played it the

451
00:24:41,360 --> 00:24:44,040
most. 
I think a lot of the games in 

452
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:50,360
one and two are the ones that I 
like the most because, you know,

453
00:24:50,360 --> 00:24:53,960
I I really like the ones where 
where's the one here? 

454
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:58,040
I'm trying to find it. 
I think it is. 

455
00:25:00,120 --> 00:25:00,960
I gotta. 
I gotta find it. 

456
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,120
If you have one, go for it. 
I'm going to find the name of 

457
00:25:03,120 --> 00:25:03,800
the. 
One that I have. 

458
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,280
Two I have. 
Two that I feel like are I mean.

459
00:25:06,360 --> 00:25:09,440
We we can pick a top three. 1. 
We can pick a top three if you 

460
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,200
want, OK? 
OK, I do have a top three. 

461
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:18,320
I do have a top three. 
And so number one for me I think

462
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:22,680
is Crazy Cutters, which is where
you ride the little jackhammer 

463
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,280
and you do the out. 
I'm doing the motion and you do 

464
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,600
the outline. 
I love, I love where everyone 

465
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,760
can hear it, but they can't. 
Like if they're not watching, 

466
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:32,520
they can't see it. 
I'm watching I. 

467
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:39,880
Understand. 
Yeah, you you cut the outline of

468
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,480
a character, usually an enemy 
like a Boo or something, and 

469
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,840
just whoever gets like the best 
stencil wins. 

470
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,560
And I've just always really 
enjoyed that. 

471
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:53,600
It's fun #2 I don't know what 
it's called, but it's it's a 

472
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,720
Bowser face and it makes a weird
face and contorts and then you 

473
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:01,960
have to try and like Mario 64 
like that opening with the Mario

474
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,600
face, how you adjust the the 
segments and areas of his face. 

475
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,560
You have to do that and make it 
stick and just make it morph 

476
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,600
into the contorted face in the 
middle of the screen. 

477
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:15,200
That one's also a lot of fun. 
And then the third one could 

478
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:16,840
probably flip around a little 
bit. 

479
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,400
But the one that came to mind 
was there's a there's a 

480
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,600
skateboard one in the I know 
it's in the first one for sure. 

481
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,280
And you like, ride the skate the
end, and you have to like keep 

482
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,320
keep speeding up and jumping 
over blocks. 

483
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:31,120
And stuff. 
Yeah, yeah. 

484
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,760
Yeah, escape from a lava. 
I'm looking at the one right now

485
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,200
that might be in the second one,
but I know what's exactly I'm. 

486
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:40,600
Positive. 
It's in the first one. 

487
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,720
In the first, OK. 
Yeah, it's like it's like ramp, 

488
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:49,160
like ramp something or. 
Oh, platform peril, here you go.

489
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,760
That's what it is. 
It's cool. 

490
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,480
Yeah, that is a good one. 
No, that's not with the 

491
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:55,680
skateboard. 
That's just jumping. 

492
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,320
No, a platform is jumping. 
Yeah, it's like the sky. 

493
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,760
It's a skateboard. 
I'm gonna look it up right now 

494
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:02,520
because. 
Okay. 

495
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,640
So while you do that, I'll tell 
you what mine is. 

496
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:06,760
My favorite is the one that you 
mentioned. 

497
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,960
It's called facelift. 
It's the one where you basically

498
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,120
contort the face of the picture.
Yeah. 

499
00:27:11,120 --> 00:27:13,560
That's cool. 
One, it's fun because at this 

500
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:17,680
point almost everybody played 
Mario 64 and spent like an hour 

501
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,720
just messing with Mario's face. 
So that's basically what this 

502
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,280
is. 
It also adds a lot of 

503
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:26,760
variability because you you can 
be pretty far off or think 

504
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,520
you've got it, but someone just 
has that slight percentage sort 

505
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,360
of advantage to you. 
So I like this one. 

506
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,360
It's not super stressful, but it
also takes some skill for sure. 

507
00:27:36,360 --> 00:27:40,640
So I like that we played in 
Mario Party Three. 

508
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:45,600
We played this, the Rock and 
Raceway, the the horses. 

509
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:47,880
We rock back and forth and 
you're kind of going around the 

510
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,400
track or whatever. 
Yeah, that one's up there for 

511
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:51,440
me. 
I really like it. 

512
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,160
Yeah, I really like it. 
I I like, I like the the fact 

513
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:59,600
that you have to manage your 
ABAB and your energy and stuff 

514
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,160
before you spin out. 
And I kind of like the fact that

515
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,800
everyone's, you know, I just, I 
like the aesthetic of it and 

516
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,600
stuff. 
There's that, and then back. 

517
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,400
You beat me in that every single
time, so maybe that's what it 

518
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,520
is, yeah. 
And then we have another shared 

519
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,240
one, The crazy cutter one is 
great. 

520
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:22,920
The sort of tracing around it, 
it's so simple, but it's it's a 

521
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,040
lot of fun. 
And again, it's it's similar to 

522
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:29,080
the facelift one where you could
feel like, oh, I got this 100%, 

523
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,000
I got this. 
But that tiny little extra 

524
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,600
Polygon or pixel that you may 
have missed could make the 

525
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,720
difference between that and I 
think that is great and the fact

526
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:42,440
that Mario Party won and I think
a couple of these are also in 

527
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,480
two. 
The fact that that is in the 

528
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,680
first game, those two games that
we both share between those two 

529
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,520
shows that the simplicity of the
first one and the ideas that 

530
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,840
they came up with just on the 
first one and kind of dropped a 

531
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,560
couple games later are actually 
pretty damn good. 

532
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,320
And that I I think that's that's
impressive. 

533
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,560
I find that pretty impressive. 
I I I enjoy that. 

534
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,280
So that that's that's a big 
kudos point there. 

535
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,080
So the the mini game I was 
talking about, it's called 

536
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,720
Skateboard Scamper. 
It is in Mario Party One. 

537
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,400
It's also in Mario Party 2. 
I did not see it and it probably

538
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,800
isn't 3, but we didn't see it 
when we played. 

539
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:20,080
Oh, there it is. 
It's cool. 

540
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,480
It's cool, 'cause you do run 
from from lava and like the 

541
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,160
platforms, like falling or the 
bricks falling underneath you 

542
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,400
and you're trying to jump over 
swamps. 

543
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,240
Is that what they're called? 
I can't remember, but there's 

544
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,720
also a variant of it where 
you're running from a giant. 

545
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,920
Boo, which is cool, and I like 
that aesthetic. 

546
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,480
I think there's also a mini game
that you have to carry, like a 

547
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,480
light bulb or something. 
Yeah, at the end, yeah, I think 

548
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:45,520
that's I like. 
That one as well. 

549
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,680
That one's fun. 
I also like the one where I 

550
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:54,000
think it is, what's the guy's, 
what's the the the chain chomp 

551
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,480
or whatever? 
The black guy? 

552
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,360
That one where it's sleeping and
when it wakes up you have to 

553
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,760
hide back into the barrel. 
I think that's in the that's in.

554
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,400
Oh yeah, I suck at that one, but
yeah. 

555
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:03,720
It's I do too, but I kind of 
like it. 

556
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:05,800
It's kind of fun. 
You have to like sneak forward 

557
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,280
and then sneak backwards and 
then it can catch you or not 

558
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:09,800
catch you. 
I I find that kind of cool. 

559
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,400
You know what's not as 
appreciated, but I I like them. 

560
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:17,160
There's the the the two V2 ones,
right? 

561
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,320
Yes, yes. 
And so 'cause there's different 

562
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,280
mini games, there's the there's 
like 1V3, there's one V1, 

563
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,960
there's 2V2, there's 3V1. 
Did I? 

564
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,480
I said one V3 but a three. 
V1 Yeah. 

565
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,720
Yeah, a 3V1, depending on what 
side you're on, But there's like

566
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,400
the mine carts where two of you 
are working together and you're 

567
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,320
trying to go like up and down 
and go really fast. 

568
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,720
There's the bobsled races. 
That one's sick, love that one. 

569
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,480
There's just like a bunch of 
different variations. 

570
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,680
And I played a in Mario Party 
three. 

571
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:51,440
I never played this one before 
because you don't often do the 

572
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:55,960
One V ones when they happen, 
they're like intense. 

573
00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,360
I was facing Wario and we're 
running in a field with fences 

574
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,600
and we had to capture a chicken.
And it was. 

575
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,720
It was so funny because it 
obscures your vision like it 

576
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,880
splits your screen and it says 
you might not be able to see 

577
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,720
where the chicken went, but you 
can follow its footprints. 

578
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,720
And Wario was all over the 
place, but I was trapping this 

579
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:18,400
chicken like a Bloodhound. 
I was on it. 

580
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:20,800
I got it. 
I won. 

581
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,080
Suck it. 
Check 50 coins? 

582
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:24,280
Yeah. 
Oh yeah, that's right. 

583
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,080
It was like a huge, it was like 
a huge get. 

584
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,120
Or you could get to the last 
game that you played against 

585
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:32,000
Luigi, where he wagered 3. 
Yeah, that was bull crap. 

586
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:33,920
It's like, why even bother? 
Just throw it. 

587
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:40,160
So I I think that like 2V2 and 
four player games are you know a

588
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,520
little bit better I would say 
maybe not better but they seem 

589
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:47,120
more streamlined and and and 
simpler in a good way in one and

590
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,960
two but in three I think those 
dual games, those one player or 

591
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:54,440
two V2 games like I I think the 
battle ones where you have to 

592
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:55,840
where you wager the coins and 
stuff. 

593
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,960
I think those ones are a little 
bit more inventive and a little 

594
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,880
bit better like we had the one 
where you have to run around the

595
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,720
eyeball and every time you run 
around it shrinks and stuff and 

596
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,000
some fireballs fall from the 
from the sky and stuff. 

597
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,680
I think that's kind of fun, you 
know that that that's kind of 

598
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,880
cool and and depending on what 
place you come in, you might get

599
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,320
more coins. 
You know, it adds a little bit 

600
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:15,960
of intensity to it because of 
that. 

601
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,560
Like, I like those. 
But yeah, the more, the more we 

602
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,720
talk about these mini games, the
more I realize, Oh yeah, the 

603
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,280
four player ones in the first 
two are probably better. 

604
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:29,120
Yeah. 
And that's just and. 

605
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:33,200
How it is? 
I I think, I think it's 33 has a

606
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,400
lot of them. 
I'm pretty sure it has doesn't 

607
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,640
have a lot from 1:00 and 2:00 if
not all of them and then they 

608
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,120
just added a lot more. 
But the problem is a lot of them

609
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,080
that they added are padding. 
Yeah, that. 

610
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,680
So that's what it is, Most of 
the ones you run into and and it

611
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:51,400
says 70 new games, but it 
doesn't have all of the ones 

612
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,840
from one and two, yeah, it just 
has some so. 

613
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,520
Yeah, in my mind that's the 
natural progression. 

614
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,520
Every sequel should just add 
more, but they should be quality

615
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,080
over quantity, like just add 
1010 to 20. 

616
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:07,000
Yeah, no one. 
'S and, Yeah, and a new 

617
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:08,920
character, which two did not 
add. 

618
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,440
A new character 3 did add 
Waluigi and Daisy, so it's got 

619
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:11,960
that. 
Yeah. 

620
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:17,360
So it's got that. 
Yeah, I I had a point to bring 

621
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:22,480
up and I think it was about 
1:00, but I don't remember what 

622
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:23,560
it was. 
Well, I will. 

623
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,400
Maybe it'll come back. 
I will sidetrack you then and 

624
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,920
talk about the mini games and 
give you a little bit of AI. 

625
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,840
Don't know, maybe you looked at 
it in the dock, maybe didn't. 

626
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:33,680
I don't know. 
But I did not. 

627
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:35,400
I have a spoiler. 
I had a spoiler. 

628
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:36,160
You didn't. 
OK, great. 

629
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,320
This is definitely something we 
have to talk about. 1:00 because

630
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:41,920
I have a pop quiz for you, 
Hotshot. 

631
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:44,680
OK, take that. 
Pop quiz, Hotshot. 

632
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,640
That. 
And also the fact that this goes

633
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,080
into something that is sort of 
like this, like not myth, but 

634
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:52,480
it's actually true about the 
game. 

635
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,040
Does it look like Does it look 
like Donkey Kong's My face? 

636
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:56,680
It does look like Donkey Kong is
your face. 

637
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,200
I don't even know where my 
podcasting partner went. 

638
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,160
Where did you go? 
OK, pop quiz Hotshot. 

639
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:06,640
What peripheral did Nintendo 
release for the early games in 

640
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:08,320
this franchise? 
Any guesses? 

641
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:16,800
I think I know the answer to 
this if, well, it's not really a

642
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,440
peripheral, but I'm going to, 
I'm going to say what I think it

643
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,520
is because I know the 
controversy of the first game. 

644
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:28,840
Is it a sports glove? 
Yes, it is peripherals. 

645
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,199
Yeah, peripheral is a bit of a 
cheat. 

646
00:34:31,199 --> 00:34:33,800
I just couldn't find another 
word to sort of use for. 

647
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:38,320
It gotcha, but I was really. 
It got me thinking because I 

648
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,719
know this story, but I was like 
a peripheral, like did they have

649
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,520
like a weird, like like a 
fishing rod or something weird? 

650
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,600
That'd be awesome. 
I was really thinking. 

651
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,840
A Dreamcast fishing rod like 
that thing that would have. 

652
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:50,440
Been awesome. 
Yeah, yeah, that exists. 

653
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:54,320
Yeah, yeah, for sure. 
So what is the controversy? 

654
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,480
Why don't you go for it, since 
you knew pretty much almost 

655
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:57,640
right away? 
Yeah. 

656
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:03,400
So the fact that the first game 
required you to spin the 

657
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:08,560
joystick, rotate the joystick in
a direction, people were finding

658
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:12,320
that to do it really quickly and
to win, you would put the 

659
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,960
joystick in your palm and rotate
as fast as possible. 

660
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,600
I did it, we all did it, 
everyone did it. 

661
00:35:18,720 --> 00:35:22,680
It's the technique right? 
The problem being the 64 

662
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,680
joystick is hard plastic 
essentially and it was injuring 

663
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,600
people's hands and some people 
were actually breaking their 

664
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,840
joysticks I guess. 
And I have heard from people 

665
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:38,120
that they have broken their N64 
joysticks doing that or playing 

666
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:41,480
games and just like talking 
about how crap the N64 joystick 

667
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,160
is. 
I have never broken a single 

668
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,720
joystick on my N64 and I did 
that with every single 

669
00:35:47,720 --> 00:35:49,800
controller I owned. 
I played Mario. 

670
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,160
I never, It was never even a 
thought with me. 

671
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,960
No, I I never even got scared by
that, you know, like that was 

672
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,400
never going. 
To possibly my hand got a little

673
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,840
raw, but I, you know was so it 
didn't matter. 

674
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,240
I was going to do whatever it 
took to win. 

675
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:08,640
OK, that's the reality. 
But yeah, so that controversy, 

676
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:12,400
like people complained and I 
don't know if there was a 

677
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,000
lawsuit, was there was a. 
Lawsuit. 

678
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,480
There was a lawsuit. 
There was a lawsuit from like a 

679
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,920
small group of families or 
parents or something like that. 

680
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,000
It was very few. 
It was like a couple dozen or 

681
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:23,480
something like oh. 
Little Billy's hands. 

682
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,080
Yeah, and they were asking for 
like, Gonna. 

683
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,600
Be able to write again. 
Yeah, well, don't worry. 

684
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,680
In 20 years, writing won't 
matter. 

685
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,760
Yeah, exactly. 
Yeah. 

686
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,320
So there was like a bit of a 
lawsuit. 

687
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,680
I think they, I think they 
released, quote UN quote 

688
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:41,600
released this glove. 
It was like an actual like 

689
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,640
sports glove from like a company
that makes gloves for like 

690
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:46,880
weightlifting and stuff 
essentially is what it was and 

691
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,680
for bikers and stuff. 
And it's just, it basically just

692
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:53,720
has padding on your palms 
because when you lift weights 

693
00:36:53,720 --> 00:36:55,920
sometimes depending on the 
weight or whatever, I guess 

694
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:58,600
that's I, I don't know, I don't 
lift super heavyweight. 

695
00:36:58,600 --> 00:36:59,360
So I have no. 
Idea. 

696
00:37:00,240 --> 00:37:03,920
Listen here, OK? 
If I was ever at a party or at a

697
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,680
friends house and they were 
like, you want to play Mario 

698
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,720
Party and they whipped out just 
a single glove and like put it 

699
00:37:09,720 --> 00:37:14,400
on, I feel like this person 
means business. 

700
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:19,640
This is like. 
You know what it reminds me of? 

701
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,200
Because it's also a glove. 
Did you ever see the Wizard when

702
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,800
they when he goes to the kid? 
The movie The Wizard, where the 

703
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:25,960
kid? 
Basically they. 

704
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,880
I've never seen it. 
No, They travel across the USI 

705
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:30,960
don't know exactly what the 
story is, I can't remember. 

706
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:35,440
But they travel across the US 
like I, I, an older brother, a 

707
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,560
younger kid and like one of 
their friends. 

708
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:41,040
And they're traveling across the
US to go to a Super Mario 

709
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:45,880
Brothers 3 competition on like a
stage to win money and all that 

710
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,440
kind of stuff. 
They're going from, like, I 

711
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,640
don't know, Chicago to 
California or New York to 

712
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,960
California, something like that.
And along the way they meet, I 

713
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,080
don't remember the circumstance,
They meet a kid that has the 

714
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:59,160
Power Glove and he's got like a 
leather jacket and the spiky 

715
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,960
hair he puts on the Power Glove 
and he's like, yeah, I'm a 

716
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,040
serious gamer. 
Like that's what it reminds me 

717
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,360
of. 
Oh man, yeah. 

718
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:07,960
You gotta you gotta look up that
you. 

719
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:12,880
Gotta look at that movie. 
I was a mad gamer, but for me, 

720
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:19,120
that culture of like coolness 
when I went somewhere, yeah, 

721
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,880
that revolves around Beyblades. 
That was the thing. 

722
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:24,000
God, you're so much younger than
me. 

723
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:27,520
It's crazy. 
It was well, OK. 

724
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,000
I'm not that much younger than 
you. 

725
00:38:29,240 --> 00:38:32,440
Beyblades I'm gonna is not even 
on my radar unless someone 

726
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,520
brings it up, OK? 
Not even OK Wait, Wait. 

727
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:34,960
Wait. 
Wait. 

728
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:35,320
Wait. 
Wait. 

729
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:38,840
Wait. 
OK, so wait, you're what, 35? 

730
00:38:39,240 --> 00:38:42,760
6. 36 OK, so I'm six years 
younger. 

731
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,840
Yeah. 
That's less than the difference 

732
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,280
between me and my younger 
brother. 

733
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,440
OK, but OK yeah. 
So it is. 

734
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,480
It is a gap, but it's not. 
It's. 

735
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:51,680
Not crazy. 
It's not crazy. 

736
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:52,840
It's not that. 
Dramatic. 

737
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,120
It's not a decade. 
A decade would be a. 

738
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,960
Lot the reason why I'm 
clarifying this is because I 

739
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:03,560
look perpetually 16 and I am 
going to be 30 this year. 

740
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:08,400
So it's like please like I don't
need to be acknowledged as you 

741
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,960
know older. 
I just, I'm not 16, you know, 

742
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,640
like, come on, I'm at least 17. 
At. 

743
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,960
Least. 
You're at least getting close to

744
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:18,560
20 at least. 
But. 

745
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,360
But my dream as a child was to 
be the Beyblade Champion. 

746
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,720
Gotcha. 
OK And I would walk around. 

747
00:39:25,720 --> 00:39:30,000
I would carry around my Beyblade
and my Launcher like just in 

748
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,720
case. 
Because you never know when 

749
00:39:31,720 --> 00:39:33,000
you're going to have a Bay 
Battle is. 

750
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:36,840
That what they were called, Bay 
Battles. 

751
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,560
They're called B battles. 
That's what they were. 

752
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,600
And you'd hold the launcher out 
and you'd go let it rip. 

753
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:46,240
And like, everyone knew. 
Everyone knew OK And there was 

754
00:39:46,240 --> 00:39:50,080
an epic, like RPG Game Boy, Game
of Beyblade. 

755
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:51,880
I do remember that. 
I do remember that. 

756
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:53,640
I never played it, but I know of
it, yeah. 

757
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,080
Yeah, it's like Pokémon. 
You go around, you talk to 

758
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,280
people and they'd be like, let's
have a Bay battle and then you'd

759
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:00,760
like customize your Beyblade and
fight and it was awesome. 

760
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:02,280
I mean, that sounds cool. 
That sounds. 

761
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:05,160
I mean it. 
Was cool at least at least. 

762
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,600
It's an active toy. 
Like, you can do you do 

763
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:09,520
something with it. 
You know, like that's, Oh yeah, 

764
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,520
that's cool. 
And we would, we would like rip 

765
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,720
our fingers apart and stuff 
because they were like saw 

766
00:40:15,720 --> 00:40:16,840
blades. 
You didn't. 

767
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,200
You didn't have a glove. 
You didn't have a glove for it? 

768
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:19,560
No. 
Glove. 

769
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,320
That would be cool. 
And I would always launch it 

770
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,280
because I watched the TV show 
too and you'd like flip it 

771
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,720
upside down. 
OK, this was the Tyson launch. 

772
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:32,200
You flip it upside down and then
you do like A twist and you slam

773
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,240
it into the arena so it get like
an angle and like spin really 

774
00:40:35,240 --> 00:40:37,240
fast. 
But it basically would be like, 

775
00:40:37,240 --> 00:40:41,160
you just like chucking this, 
like, bladed thing into this 

776
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,560
plastic stadium. 
It would smash into another one.

777
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:46,920
One of them is bound to fly out,
of course. 

778
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:51,080
And just like, I mean my, my 
friends and I, my cousins, like 

779
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,440
we'd all like, we'd have 
bloodied nails and stuff. 

780
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,920
It was like, it was the real 
thing. 

781
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,320
I got totally sidetracked. 
But yeah, Mario Party. 

782
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,320
I love it, man. 
Hey, you had that. 

783
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:03,920
At least it was active. 
We collected POGS, which was 

784
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,840
supposed to be a game, but we 
never treated it as a game. 

785
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:11,040
It was more like instead of 
getting cards, we got Pogs like 

786
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,840
instead of sports cards or cards
that were like, you know, the 

787
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,360
Marvel cards that they that they
have. 

788
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,000
Instead of that it was it was 
Pogs, which are just little 

789
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,440
plastic or not plastic like 
cardboard circles. 

790
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,240
That's all they were. 
Well, that's the difference 

791
00:41:23,240 --> 00:41:26,360
between someone born in the 80s 
and someone born in the 90s. 

792
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,280
100%, man. 
Hey, that 567 year difference, 

793
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:33,080
like that gap is just enough for
those things, for those things 

794
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,400
to be different. 
My, my active toy was the 

795
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,360
original Pokémon on my original 
Game Boy. 

796
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,160
That was my active toy. 
How about that? 

797
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,360
Yeah, Pokémon Blue Man, Pokémon 
Blue Baby. 

798
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:51,200
OK, so I we we were talking as 
we were finishing playing Mario 

799
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:52,600
Party Three. 
You're like, I don't really like

800
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:54,640
this Millennium Star guy. 
Like I don't. 

801
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,680
He's sort of like the 
overarching, like, Ruler of 

802
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,400
Mario Party Three, He kind. 
Of like runs the. 

803
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:04,560
Games, I guess. 
Not my ruler. 

804
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,240
Not, not, not my, not my. 
None of my watch. 

805
00:42:07,240 --> 00:42:09,040
Not my star. 
Yeah, not my star. 

806
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:13,800
So because as we're sitting here
only a few months ago we played 

807
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:15,280
another game with a lot of 
stars. 

808
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,600
Did we not? 
I think Oh yeah, yeah. 

809
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,120
So Paper Mario if you have 
anyone hasn't listened to that 

810
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:22,240
episode, go back and listen to 
it. 

811
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:28,400
One incredible game I 2023 has 
been an amazing game or amazing 

812
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:30,760
year for games. 
Paper Mario is still one of the 

813
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:35,080
best games I played this year, 
even though it's almost 2025 

814
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:35,760
years old. 
Like the? 

815
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,080
Original Paper Mario. 
The original Paper Mario is 

816
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,120
awesome, so listen to that 
episode on your feed. 

817
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:46,360
But that is about collecting and
saving all the stars, you know, 

818
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,000
That's sort of like your your 
main goal and everything. 

819
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:52,560
I think the idea of the 
Millennium Star came from that 

820
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,920
game. 
They came out around the same 

821
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:58,800
time Mario Party actually came 
out a couple months later in 

822
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,880
North America. 
At least I think that's that's 

823
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:05,280
where they got that from. 
The Millennium Star specifically

824
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,720
isn't in Paper Mario, but there 
are a couple that kind of look 

825
00:43:08,720 --> 00:43:10,360
like it. 
You know, they have the mustache

826
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:12,520
and they're kind of different 
colors and stuff. 

827
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:17,120
And also Mario Party Three has a
decent amount of like set 

828
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,760
dressing that looks like Paper 
as well. 

829
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:23,480
So I think that's what this is 
about and that's where it was 

830
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:28,000
coming from. 
Whether he's a good, you know, 

831
00:43:28,240 --> 00:43:30,840
character to run the game kind 
of thing. 

832
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,400
I'm there's an argument to be 
made there for sure, but I think

833
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:36,200
that's where the idea come came 
from. 

834
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:39,360
And I honestly don't think I 
would have realized that unless 

835
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,160
we played Paper Mario earlier 
this year. 

836
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,080
Yeah, I mean, you can definitely
look at this game and see the 

837
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,960
aesthetic influences that Paper 
Mario had on it. 

838
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,680
Because if you look at Mario 
Party, like just just 

839
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:54,000
graphically, let's just talk 
about the graphics for a second,

840
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,480
because they're not great. 
They're not great, right? 

841
00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,200
They're pretty chunky. 
The first game, the first game, 

842
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,760
if you looked at the model, I'll
just use Donkey Kong as the 

843
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,560
example. 
If you look at the model from 

844
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:11,680
Mario Party versus Donkey Kong 
64, you'd be like, is this 

845
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,560
running on the same system? 
Because they look completely 

846
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:16,560
different? 
Mario kind of is. 

847
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:21,000
I will say Mario 64 does not 
like Mario's model, does not 

848
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,280
look that great, but I give that
a pass because it was the launch

849
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:26,440
title. 
It was so early on and Mario 

850
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:27,920
Party came out. 
What was that 9? 

851
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:32,200
9898 first one was 90. 898, so 
the first one came out 98, so 

852
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,840
that's two years that they could
have you know and Mario, that 

853
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,520
model doesn't really look that 
much better to be. 

854
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:41,600
Honest, it it it almost looks, 
he looks a little. 

855
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:45,200
He looks more awkward like he 
looks, yeah. 

856
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:50,680
It's almost like the the shape 
of Mario became more human, but 

857
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:55,800
the textures are in inferior I 
guess maybe that's maybe that's 

858
00:44:55,800 --> 00:45:01,760
what I'd say and it's kind of 
generally all around with all of

859
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,160
the characters I was playing 
with Daisy and Daisy contorted 

860
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,480
in some weird ways throughout 
the the playthrough I. 

861
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,040
I think the difference with 
something like Daisy and Peach, 

862
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:14,320
for example, is because they're 
in dresses, the legs you can't 

863
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:18,560
see so it doesn't look, yeah, 
they're quite as weird and 

864
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:20,600
awkward. 
Everyone else, it feels like 

865
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:23,400
unless you're Donkey Kong or or 
the OR the two female 

866
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:26,560
characters, the legs almost feel
like they're they're all 

867
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,000
puppets, You know, it kind of 
looks, they kind of move a 

868
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:32,520
little bit awkward. 
Yes, that is it. 

869
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,160
They look like puppets. 
Yeah, they look like puppets. 

870
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,840
They have the humanoid shape, 
but then everything else is just

871
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:38,960
kind of meh. 
Yeah. 

872
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:42,520
And I and I did notice too that 
Donkey Kong at certain points, 

873
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:44,560
and I mean this is like a ram 
issue. 

874
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:48,160
This is like this, the 64 
cartridge, whatever, is that 

875
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,400
every once in a while he would 
like, you know, do his victory 

876
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:55,280
pose or look at the camera or 
whatever, and his eyes would 

877
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:59,920
just be completely black, like 
he would just die inside. 

878
00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:02,760
I don't know what was going on 
with him, but it would be like, 

879
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:04,920
wait, where did his soul just 
go? 

880
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:09,240
I don't know. 
Yeah, I. 

881
00:46:09,240 --> 00:46:13,160
I think I think the the boards 
are OK though I don't know what 

882
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,120
do you think about like some of 
like the setups of the way like 

883
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:16,560
in all the games, not even just 
three. 

884
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,720
Like, do you like the 
variability in boards, or do you

885
00:46:18,720 --> 00:46:20,720
prefer something that's a little
bit more like uniform? 

886
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:26,280
OK, so I have a few thoughts on 
that and that was where that 

887
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:27,320
was. 
What I was going to bring up 

888
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:33,160
earlier was the boards, because 
in the first game I feel like I 

889
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:38,800
remember a lot of the boards, 
like Yoshi's Island and things. 

890
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:43,240
The cake. 
There aren't many, but I like 

891
00:46:43,240 --> 00:46:46,880
the I like the boards from one 
on two. 

892
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:50,440
I know there's the there's the 
space, the space one, because 

893
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:56,760
that's star Warrior Donkey Kong,
and there is the jungle one and 

894
00:46:56,760 --> 00:47:02,160
there is the spooky one. 
It's got some cool boards too. 

895
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:08,720
I like those 3. 
What I've played the boards like

896
00:47:08,720 --> 00:47:11,480
the aesthetics are fine. 
I think. 

897
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:15,760
I just don't. 
I don't like the the random. 

898
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:20,520
OK, so this board in particular 
that we played tonight put a 

899
00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:26,800
really bad taste in my mouth 
because it was, it had like 20 

900
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:31,600
event switches around circles 
and you would have to get at 

901
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:36,160
least like a five or six on your
roll to get past them and it's. 

902
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,040
Quicksand. 
You hit this, It was quicksand. 

903
00:47:39,240 --> 00:47:41,680
We were triggering this 
quicksand like every three 

904
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:44,480
seconds. 
It would play like a two-minute 

905
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:48,200
cutscene. 
I mean, I exaggeration on all 

906
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:52,600
counts, but it still would like 
it was a solid 22nd cutscene. 

907
00:47:52,720 --> 00:47:56,320
OK, it's exhausting and when it 
plays, when it plays four times 

908
00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:59,480
in a row in a in a round, it's 
very annoying. 

909
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:05,000
I would love to have the option 
to skip it, but personally 

910
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:09,520
looking at the boards I think I 
don't know they they feel pretty

911
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:10,960
lazy. 
Really. 

912
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:13,040
OK. 
Just in general I I would say 

913
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:17,000
not like as far as layout goes 
or as far as what they do just 

914
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:21,280
aesthetic like how they look 
like graphically like they they 

915
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:24,480
did minimal effort for boards 
and that's from the beginning 

916
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:27,400
they it's just P and GS 
basically. 

917
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:31,200
I will say I do appreciate that 
three actually has characters 

918
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:35,240
modeled out because I know in 
one and two there's actually 

919
00:48:35,240 --> 00:48:40,880
like Toad could be like a flat 
PNG image, just like the top 

920
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,200
half is separated from the 
bottom half, so he's like moving

921
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,960
side to side. 
Three, it seems like everything 

922
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:50,240
is modeled as far as characters.
Yeah, anyone that's like the 

923
00:48:50,240 --> 00:48:53,040
bank and all those types of 
everyone's, everyone's moving a 

924
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:56,200
little bit more and more like 
more engaged, yeah. 

925
00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:00,200
Yeah, I like that, but I just 
don't like that it's a flat to. 

926
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,320
It's a flat PNG image or JPG or 
whatever. 

927
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:05,200
It could be whatever file format
I just. 

928
00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:06,520
Whatever existed at that time, 
I. 

929
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:08,920
Don't know. 
PNG is my favorite format. 

930
00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:13,480
OK, but it just they're kind of 
blurry. 

931
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,160
They're not. 
They're not polished. 

932
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,640
They feel just like a background
element, which is what they're 

933
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:21,000
supposed to be. 
You can get away with it. 

934
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:24,320
I'm not like super complaining. 
It doesn't break the game by any

935
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,280
means. 
It's just something that you 

936
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:31,040
notice and you think man, if if 
if it had a little bit more time

937
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,120
and effort put into it because 
they were chugging these games 

938
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:37,480
out, they made one, they made 
two, they made three within 

939
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:41,200
three years. 
So they literally just took the 

940
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:44,440
game and they're like oh OK, 
three with the mini games here, 

941
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:46,600
like you can see we're playing 
right now a log cutting if 

942
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:51,160
you're watching it and the 
environment is totally it's 

943
00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:52,560
nice. 
It looks cool. 

944
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:56,560
It looks, I like it a lot. 
It's very cute. 

945
00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:59,440
It's very cartoony, it's very 
Paper Mario Y, but at the same 

946
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,000
time, it's got more of that 3D 
model aspect. 

947
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:04,280
Yep. 
Yeah. 

948
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:07,560
It's just they could have done 
that with the whole game and it 

949
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:09,520
just feels like they didn't. 
Yeah, yeah. 

950
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:11,840
Because they were. 
They were waiting. 

951
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:13,480
They were just taking the easy 
Rd. out. 

952
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:15,480
There you go, Donkey. 
Kong's dead in the eyes. 

953
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:18,200
You can see it. 
Oh, yeah, totally. 

954
00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,160
It's just closing his eyes. 
I I think, yeah, he's he's 

955
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:22,480
tired. 
He's been working, you know, 

956
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,200
We're on. 
We're on turn like 20 at this 

957
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:24,800
point. 
He's tired. 

958
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:27,120
He's tired. 
I I think you're right. 

959
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:29,320
I think. 
I think 3 gets away with it a 

960
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:32,200
little bit because it has that 
sort of paper aspect to it. 

961
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:35,320
I think that probably is more 
forgivable. 

962
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:36,880
But yeah, for the most part 
you're right. 

963
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:40,400
I think. 
I think I kind of don't mind it 

964
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:42,920
because like you said, all those
characters or at least a lot of 

965
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:45,840
the characters, a little bit 
more animated and involved and 

966
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:49,960
all those types of things. 
So I I'm OK with it. 

967
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:50,880
It it's it. 
You're right. 

968
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:54,240
It doesn't make or break the 
game, but it's something to to 

969
00:50:54,240 --> 00:50:59,960
point out for sure so. 
Yeah, I will say that three has 

970
00:50:59,960 --> 00:51:01,960
the best items. 
I love items. 

971
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:04,080
Yes, they're they're more fun, 
yeah. 

972
00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:07,360
And they feel like you could 
have some legitimate strategy 

973
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,360
with them. 
Although I don't see why you 

974
00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:12,280
wouldn't just save up and get 
the magic lamp every time or or 

975
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,120
the Boo bell. 
Those are like the two standard 

976
00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:17,920
items for me. 
But but even the less useful 

977
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:23,440
items like the dual glove, the 
the mushrooms, the different 

978
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:27,720
kinds of mushrooms, the the 
phone to call the item shop and 

979
00:51:27,720 --> 00:51:30,600
things like that and the Bowser 
suit, that's a cool, that's a 

980
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:31,840
cool item. 
I like that. 

981
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:36,360
And Bowser himself, let's talk 
about the spaces like what they 

982
00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:38,760
do, because I think that's an 
interesting aspect. 

983
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:43,080
They have the the regular blue 
and red spaces. 

984
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:48,840
Blue gives you coins, 3 coins, 
red -3 coins, and then those 

985
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:52,360
influence if you're playing on a
team or by yourself at the end 

986
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:54,280
if you're red or blue. 
If there's two Reds, you'll be 

987
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:57,320
two Reds against two Blues. 
If there's three Blues, one red,

988
00:51:57,320 --> 00:52:00,040
you might be 1 red against three
Blues, or it could just make you

989
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:03,200
blue it. 
It's kind of random, but it's 

990
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:04,600
cool. 
And then you got your other 

991
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:11,640
spaces, like item spaces, dual 
spaces, the bank, yeah, the 

992
00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:14,480
badge. 
I'm trying to think of what else

993
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:16,720
there is, like the Boo we. 
Didn't we didn't run into the 

994
00:52:16,720 --> 00:52:19,080
shy guy spot? 
I'm not sure what that did, at 

995
00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:20,280
least not on the board we were 
on. 

996
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:21,760
I actually don't know what that 
did. 

997
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:29,520
I I think it's in. 
It's like a a chance mini game, 

998
00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:30,960
I believe. 
Kind of. 

999
00:52:31,240 --> 00:52:33,840
Yeah. 
It's it's like shy guy will get 

1000
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,480
you to do something ridiculous. 
Oh, it's another game, yeah. 

1001
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:40,360
Like climb up, climb up, do the 
slot machine or something or 

1002
00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:42,400
yeah. 
He has a couple of like of of 

1003
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:45,760
his own games, essentially. 
Yeah, and they're unfair. 

1004
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,560
Yeah, which makes sense. 
It's Shy Guy. 

1005
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,680
They're. 
Kind of a high risk, high reward

1006
00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:52,560
games, right? 
But they kind of suck. 

1007
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,600
If you land on his, you're like,
Oh no crap. 

1008
00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:58,120
But the Bowser spaces are 
classic. 

1009
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:00,720
I I have a story to tell. 
Yes, let's do it. 

1010
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:06,800
So my friend and I, we would, I 
would just go over and we just 

1011
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,840
play Mario Party specifically, 
we played Mario Party one and 

1012
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,840
two. 
We rarely played three because 

1013
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:16,760
we even back then I don't know 
what it was about two that we 

1014
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:20,040
were just like 2 is the best. 
I think it's the costumes. 

1015
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:21,560
The costumes, man, I wrote it in
the notes. 

1016
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:23,240
Actually, it's one of your 
favorite things. 

1017
00:53:23,240 --> 00:53:25,320
The costumes, it's great. 
It is. 

1018
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:27,720
I I don't know why they 
wouldn't, why they got rid of 

1019
00:53:27,720 --> 00:53:29,360
that because it was so cool. 
And they would. 

1020
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:32,760
It would, in my mind, it creates
a little story to each map, 

1021
00:53:33,240 --> 00:53:35,320
right? 
And they did with Bowser. 

1022
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:37,640
They're like, oh, the superstar.
You need to get the star so you 

1023
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,000
can defeat Bowser. 
And it's like you could be a 

1024
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:44,320
wizard or the star warrior or, 
you know, it's just cool. 

1025
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,600
That's actually where we I was 
playing as Donkey Kong and we 

1026
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:50,760
played the space map. 
This is not my story. 

1027
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:56,360
I'm segueing off my story with 
the same story and and we play, 

1028
00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:59,520
we played the star map, right? 
And I was Donkey Kong and I just

1029
00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:04,440
came up with the, the lyrics 
there and that was like, I don't

1030
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:07,160
know, it had to have been like 
five years ago, at least maybe 

1031
00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:10,800
10 years ago. 
It was like we were old, we were

1032
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:14,400
older, but we have been doing 
this for years, right? 

1033
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,440
OK. 
And so it was just like the last

1034
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:19,880
one of the last times we did it.
And we were like, I was just 

1035
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:23,520
singing this, the space world 
theme, and I was adding my own 

1036
00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:26,480
lyrics. 
So I just came up with that star

1037
00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:29,640
warrior Donkey Kong kicking ass 
with his fists because he's, you

1038
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:31,760
know, he runs it all for us. 
I thought that was a funny, 

1039
00:54:32,240 --> 00:54:34,520
funny, goofy thing. 
Anyways, I digress. 

1040
00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:38,720
We were playing the Yoshi Island
map. 

1041
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:41,120
I think we were actually playing
one at this moment. 

1042
00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:45,720
And we landed on the Bowser 
space, OK, And Bowser taunts you

1043
00:54:45,720 --> 00:54:48,840
with the different things. 
You could get the Bowser. 

1044
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:52,920
Give 10 coins to Bowser. 
Give 20 coins to Bowser, Bowser,

1045
00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:55,560
give Bowser a star. 
All these negative things. 

1046
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:58,680
And then there's that one thing 
that says 10,000 stars. 

1047
00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:01,520
Yeah, or like I've. 
Never 100,000. 

1048
00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:06,200
Points or whatever, yeah. 
Yeah, I think this was 10,000 

1049
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:07,200
star present. 
Yeah. 

1050
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:11,920
And up to this point, I had 
never seen it acquired. 

1051
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:14,600
Ever. 
I've never gotten it out of all 

1052
00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:16,480
the times I play Mario Party, 
never seen it. 

1053
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:20,720
And we were sitting there and 
this roulette lands on the 

1054
00:55:20,720 --> 00:55:29,560
10,000 star and and we were 
like, I didn't freeze. 

1055
00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:31,600
I just, I just like this just 
dramatic effect. 

1056
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:33,840
We were, we were just we were 
blown away. 

1057
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:35,720
We're like, what is about to 
happen, right? 

1058
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:39,360
And like, I swear I might have 
pooped myself a little bit 

1059
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:40,960
because it was that big of a 
deal. 

1060
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:41,760
Yeah. 
OK. 

1061
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:45,520
And I was like, holy crap, I 
couldn't. 

1062
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:46,880
I don't. 
I don't think it was me. 

1063
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:48,320
I think it was my friend that 
got it. 

1064
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,480
I was like, I'm not even going 
to be mad if you get 2000 stars.

1065
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:53,280
Like, that's the most amazing 
thing. 

1066
00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,680
Yeah, you got to take it. 
It was like winning the lottery.

1067
00:55:57,080 --> 00:56:01,560
And then Bowser proceeded to 
look at the screen for a second 

1068
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:04,880
and turn around and just run and
he just disappears. 

1069
00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:07,240
Come on. 
And then we were laughing for 

1070
00:56:07,240 --> 00:56:11,680
like a solid 2 1/2, three 
minutes because I don't know 

1071
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:13,760
what we expected. 
I really thought we were going 

1072
00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:17,120
to get 10,000 stars and it was 
like this God tier, like move in

1073
00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:19,440
Mario Party, but it just didn't 
happen. 

1074
00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:21,600
It just didn't work out. 
I didn't. 

1075
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:24,240
Even know it was funny. 
That is so. 

1076
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:29,080
I've never seen it before, at 
least not that I can remember, 

1077
00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:33,560
cuz it's in every game. 
It's in all, at least these 

1078
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:35,600
three, at least in these three 
it's in, right? 

1079
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,680
I thought it was just there just
for a placeholder, you know, 

1080
00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:41,640
like just to mess with you. 
It's never gonna run out. 

1081
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:43,760
And that's fine, right? 
That's part of the joke. 

1082
00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,400
That's why it's funny. 
That's what I thought too. 

1083
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:48,040
Yeah. 
And then it happened. 

1084
00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:50,000
And I was like, I didn't know it
could actually happen. 

1085
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,280
Dude, that's amazing. 
That's amazing. 

1086
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:52,960
That's so. 
But he. 

1087
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:54,800
Just looks at you and runs away.
It's so. 

1088
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:56,160
Funny. 
Oh my God, 'cause they could 

1089
00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:59,040
easily go like. 
They could go like, oh, sorry, I

1090
00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:01,200
don't have 10,000. 
Here, take one, you know? 

1091
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:02,840
OK, cool. 
You got one. 

1092
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:05,760
It's just like. 
Runs. 

1093
00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:08,080
That's so, dude, That's. 
Amazing. 

1094
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:10,920
I love the fact that that's even
real, that you can actually land

1095
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:12,640
on it. 
Yeah, I. 

1096
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:14,560
Wonder, I wonder what the odds 
are. 

1097
00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:16,920
They're probably some ridiculous
amount, you know. 

1098
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,520
It's probably some stupid. 
It's gotta I. 

1099
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:23,040
It's gotta be like something 
like one in 1000 or something. 

1100
00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:24,560
Yeah, which would be a lot, 
right. 

1101
00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,160
So yeah. 
Oh my God. 

1102
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:30,000
Yeah 'cause out of all the times
I've played it, it almost always

1103
00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:32,160
is. 
Just give Bowser like 1020 

1104
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:33,520
coins. 
That's it. 

1105
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:36,120
Always screws me over. 
Yeah, I'm gonna try, I'm gonna 

1106
00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:40,520
try and find, I'm gonna try and 
find how like how often this 

1107
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:43,240
happens. 
Like when I look it up, like 

1108
00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:45,680
there's screenshots of people 
like that have like screenshot 

1109
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:49,640
after it happened, 10,000 coin 
present and like there's a 

1110
00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:52,680
screenshot that just says Bowser
ran, that's it. 

1111
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:54,760
Yeah. 
So that's obviously after after 

1112
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:58,280
he takes off. 
I I believe I actually got it in

1113
00:57:58,280 --> 00:57:59,960
a live stream. 
Oh my God. 

1114
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:03,280
In one of my live streams in the
I did a Mario Party 2 stream and

1115
00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:07,960
a Mario Party 3 stream, and in 
one of those it might have been 

1116
00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:12,120
the three stream. 
I did get the Bowser thing. 

1117
00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:13,520
Wow. 
OK, so the so we. 

1118
00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:15,640
Were like, whoa. 
Yeah, so it even exists in the 

1119
00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:17,560
new ones too. 
It's still there. 

1120
00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:21,880
The 100 star thing is in the new
one. 

1121
00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:24,960
It says here's 100 coins, don't 
mention it. 

1122
00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:27,160
Literally don't mention it to 
anyone. 

1123
00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:30,760
And then? 
And then he runs away and it 

1124
00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:34,160
says Bowser hightailed it. 
That's funny. 

1125
00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:36,680
So it's it's possible. 
It's. 

1126
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,000
I just honestly, I I never, I 
never knew. 

1127
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:41,800
I never knew that it was 
possible. 

1128
00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:43,720
I honestly didn't know. 
It's cool. 

1129
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:45,840
That's amazing. 
So what happens? 

1130
00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:53,560
Yeah, so coins and stars are 
capped at 999 and 99, and when 

1131
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:57,440
you receive 1000 coins or 100 
stars, it's literally impossible

1132
00:58:57,600 --> 00:58:59,560
cause a game isn't even 
programmed to get to that 

1133
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:03,400
number. 
Dang, it should just Max you 

1134
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:04,320
out. 
Yeah, like it. 

1135
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:06,160
It would actually like 
technically, quote, UN quote, 

1136
00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:07,560
break the game if you got to 
that number. 

1137
00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:10,720
So that'd be cool. 
OK, so I want to get to this. 

1138
00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:14,920
Before we wrap things up, I want
to mention the the social media 

1139
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:18,280
posts that I put out there. 
A nerd question of the day, 

1140
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:20,120
which I've done every once in a 
while, which is just a random 

1141
00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:22,320
question based on the games or 
game that we're playing. 

1142
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:26,120
I said if you could party with 
one character from the Mushroom 

1143
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:30,680
Kingdom, who would it be? 
And we got a pretty big range of

1144
00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:34,760
answers. 
I think, you know I I put it on 

1145
00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:38,280
on Twitter threads Instagram. 
I I I tossed it out on on 

1146
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,360
everything. 
Let's see. 

1147
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:42,000
We got. 
I'll start off on Twitter 

1148
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:46,200
because I had that pulled up 
first Random Gamers podcast. 

1149
00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:48,840
What's that? 
It's X now. 

1150
00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:52,400
No, it's not. 
A random gamers podcast said. 

1151
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:56,000
It's got to be my boy Luigi 
going to have a bunch of pizza 

1152
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,360
with a whole lot of movies 
playing at the same time. 

1153
00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:00,240
I think that's that sounds 
pretty good. 

1154
01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:01,880
I mean, hey, it's New Year's, 
right? 

1155
01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:03,480
You can do whatever you want in 
a chill. 

1156
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:06,080
You're going to play Mario 
Party, maybe have some pizza, 

1157
01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:10,320
watch movies, why not, right? 
A novel console, says Donkey 

1158
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:11,160
Kong. 
New Year's. 

1159
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:13,720
Yeah, a novel console, says 
Donkey Kong. 

1160
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:17,520
But Seth Rogen's version? 
I'm sure he'd be able to keep up

1161
01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:22,160
with me, drink for drink. 
Oh yeah, that's probably true. 

1162
01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:25,280
Probably destroy you actually, 
when I really come down to it. 

1163
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:29,320
I don't think. 
I don't think drinking wise. 

1164
01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:31,320
I think if he did anything else,
he would, yeah. 

1165
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:38,000
Right last one here on this is 
from Gaming Together podcast. 

1166
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:40,200
I've been on their show before, 
so take a listen to them. 

1167
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:46,960
Pauline, which is the the 
singer, the main sort of the, 

1168
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,360
yeah, the one that sings the 
theme song for for. 

1169
01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,560
Why is it escaping me now? 
I'm out of. 

1170
01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:55,640
Odyssey. 
That's it. 

1171
01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:56,640
My God. 
I'm. 

1172
01:00:57,200 --> 01:00:59,000
I'm. 
Tired, I'm to jump up in the 

1173
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:00,560
air. 
Good tune. 

1174
01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:06,280
All right, I'll be. 
Your one up, girl. 

1175
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:09,640
There's my singing. 
It's it's beautiful. 

1176
01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:16,240
It's beautiful on on threads we 
have retro play 224 seven or two

1177
01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:19,440
47, says Donkey Kong. 
He seems like a fun guy to be 

1178
01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:23,360
around with which I I think we 
can agree. 

1179
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:25,800
I think we can agree, I think. 
That's that's Donkey Kong's 

1180
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:29,560
cool. 
Yeah, my other podcast on 

1181
01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:32,360
Instagram, which I think one of 
my buddies probably logged in 

1182
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:36,560
and put this answer in. 
So back in my day, says Waluigi 

1183
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:38,280
Parties. 
That's it. 

1184
01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:40,520
Simple as that. 
Yep. 

1185
01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:45,560
Bits of bits of time. 
Media says it's got to be Yoshi.

1186
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:48,160
The places we'd go and the 
things we'd eat. 

1187
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:51,400
Blissful. 
Yeah, that's that's a good 

1188
01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:53,520
point. 
I I might go for Yoshi too. 

1189
01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:55,680
That sounds pretty good. 
You could ride on Yoshi too. 

1190
01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:57,440
Yeah, you could. 
You could go to any. 

1191
01:01:57,480 --> 01:02:01,920
Part of that, you could ride on 
Yoshi that sounds awesome and 

1192
01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:04,040
just go get a bunch of fresh 
fruit. 

1193
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,360
Yeah. 
He knows where it is. 

1194
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:08,240
He he just, he'll just sniff it 
out, right? 

1195
01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:09,600
He'll sniff and he'll eat it for
you. 

1196
01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:11,120
You can eat. 
You can eat the junk food. 

1197
01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:12,360
He'll eat the fruit. 
That's fine. 

1198
01:02:12,640 --> 01:02:12,800
You. 
Know. 

1199
01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:14,120
Yeah, exactly. 
There you go. 

1200
01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:20,400
Soshi, the Yoshi obvious answer.
I wonder who mine would be. 

1201
01:02:20,800 --> 01:02:22,960
That's all they want. 
So, yeah, of. 

1202
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:27,320
Course noob 1 to 10, which is 
someone who's on your discord on

1203
01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:30,560
on the jiggy look back Discord, 
which is great, they wrote Toad.

1204
01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:31,960
I think Toad could be kind of 
fun. 

1205
01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:35,720
I mean he seems like a really 
friendly character so and he 

1206
01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:38,640
he's one of the one of the 
characters at least in the first

1207
01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:41,800
couple that throws the parties 
at Mario Party, so. 

1208
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:43,360
I think that. 
He does, yeah. 

1209
01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:45,400
He's got hookups, right? 
He's got hookups. 

1210
01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:49,320
So and then what else we got? 
Oh, you sent me one. 

1211
01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:50,040
Where is it? 
Here. 

1212
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:52,080
I got to pull. 
It up, you know, that was only 

1213
01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:53,640
good games. 
Only good. 

1214
01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:56,760
Games for my Discord. 
Yeah, says Mario. 

1215
01:02:56,760 --> 01:03:02,760
I've heard he knows how to throw
a few parties and that is true. 

1216
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:09,240
That's fun. 
So yeah, so I would say for me 

1217
01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:13,200
just to sort of round it out, 
I'm gonna go with you know what,

1218
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:16,000
actually talking it through. 
I think Toad is the go to 

1219
01:03:16,680 --> 01:03:20,960
because he throws, he threw two 
out of the three parties on this

1220
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:24,040
console and they're pretty good 
games and like we've discussed 

1221
01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:27,960
the mini games are a lot of fun.
So I think I'm gonna back, I'm 

1222
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:29,960
gonna back Noob on this so I'm 
gonna go, I'm gonna go Toad. 

1223
01:03:29,960 --> 01:03:31,400
I'm gonna go Toad. 
You know what? 

1224
01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:35,240
I changed my mind though, 
because I I instantly thought 

1225
01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:41,360
I'm like, ah, no, I'm going for 
Peach because a few reasons. 

1226
01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:46,640
OK A She's a Babe 2. 
She's a babe. 

1227
01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:51,240
She's rich. 
No, she's rich And three. 

1228
01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:53,280
She's got a castle. 
Yes, the. 

1229
01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:54,920
Castle and a. 
Kingdom for that matter. 

1230
01:03:55,240 --> 01:03:59,280
Dude, that party would be sick. 
And she bakes cakes. 

1231
01:03:59,720 --> 01:04:01,320
If you needed a fourth reason, 
Yep. 

1232
01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:04,600
I I think I think that's pretty 
solid. 

1233
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:09,920
I think like you would you'd 
have you'd you'd you'd luck out 

1234
01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:13,120
like I don't think I think it 
would be pretty easy to to to 

1235
01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:16,480
find your way to a good party. 
I think that's, yeah, exactly. 

1236
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:18,880
It's going to happen whether you
like it or not, so. 

1237
01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:21,640
Yeah. 
And her house is a party because

1238
01:04:21,640 --> 01:04:24,360
you go through that castle, you 
can like the paintings, You can 

1239
01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:26,360
just walk through the paintings 
and you go in a whole world. 

1240
01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:27,800
Oh my God, man. 
And. 

1241
01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:29,720
Then you come back out and the 
party's still going. 

1242
01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:31,960
You could throw, yeah. 
It's like. 

1243
01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:33,560
You can throw Penguins and 
she's. 

1244
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:36,920
Got. 
She's got a giant slide in her 

1245
01:04:36,920 --> 01:04:37,400
house. 
Oh. 

1246
01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:40,240
My God, dude. 
Oh my God. 

1247
01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:43,040
That slide looks so much fun, 
even though it also looks super 

1248
01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:44,720
dangerous. 
It's It's probably the most 

1249
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:46,760
ridiculously dangerous thing 
you'll ever do. 

1250
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:49,320
But you know what? 
I would totally do it a. 100% I 

1251
01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:51,720
would do it I. 
I and I'd do it on my belly too.

1252
01:04:52,400 --> 01:04:53,680
You got it. 
You got it. 

1253
01:04:53,760 --> 01:05:01,120
I'd run and go lying on my 
belly. 

1254
01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:04,120
Is that the sound? 
Is that what happens when you go

1255
01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:05,320
on your stomach and makes a 
fart? 

1256
01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:06,280
Fart noise. 
Is that how? 

1257
01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:07,200
It works. 
Oh, yeah, definitely. 

1258
01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:08,360
Yeah. 
Somebody punched me in the 

1259
01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:10,480
stomach. 
I bet I would just do like. 

1260
01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:15,640
I will say this, my dog did a 
really big stretch before and as

1261
01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:17,200
she gets older she farts more 
and more. 

1262
01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:19,320
And it was it was right in my 
face. 

1263
01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:22,480
It was it was a mouthful of of 
dog fart. 

1264
01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:24,920
It was. 
My dog is on the opposite 

1265
01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:29,120
spectrum because she's a baby. 
She's just four months old, but 

1266
01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:31,960
she also farts a lot and it 
smells really bad. 

1267
01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:35,000
She's a golden retriever, but 
she'll just be sitting there 

1268
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:38,800
sleeping and all of a sudden 
she'll be like and you're like 

1269
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:44,080
and then it just it's like. 
Get out of here. 

1270
01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:47,120
I got to get out of here. 
So Wario's out. 

1271
01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:50,160
We don't like farts. 
Yeah, Wario's out of here for 

1272
01:05:50,160 --> 01:05:52,120
sure. 
He was also screwing you over in

1273
01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:53,680
the game that we played, so 
screw him. 

1274
01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:56,120
I hate. 
Hate Wario hate. 

1275
01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:59,680
Wario Yeah. 
OK, so that's Mario Party 1-2 

1276
01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:04,600
and three dog Farts, Beyblades 
and I guess mini games. 

1277
01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:05,600
I don't know. 
The other stuff was more. 

1278
01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:06,640
Important. 
Wait, wait. 

1279
01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:09,040
There's one. 
There's there's an important 

1280
01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:11,440
thing we need to just lay out 
here. 

1281
01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:12,640
Yeah, we have to. 
OK, let's do it. 

1282
01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:16,520
The tier list of Mario Party 1-2
and three. 

1283
01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:19,200
Oh yeah, What's the order? 
OK, what's the order? 

1284
01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:21,960
What's the? 
What's the the top to the 

1285
01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:23,040
bottom? 
OK, I'm. 

1286
01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:24,480
I'm gonna talk myself through 
it. 

1287
01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:27,680
I'm gonna talk myself through it
a little bit personally, but I 

1288
01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:30,240
think I do have my order. 
I don't I know the answer right 

1289
01:06:30,240 --> 01:06:31,760
now. 
Yeah, I do. 

1290
01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:33,160
You wanna? 
Should we go bottom to the top 

1291
01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:34,480
or top to the bottom? 
I guess it doesn't really 

1292
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:35,960
matter. 
It's only three let's. 

1293
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:38,080
Go bottom to top. 
On the top, let's do bottom to 

1294
01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:39,600
top. 
And bottom to top, OK, I'm gonna

1295
01:06:39,600 --> 01:06:43,880
go with #1 at the bottom, just 
because it's simpler. 

1296
01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:46,480
There's less games like we 
talked about. 

1297
01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:51,960
The games are still pretty good,
but there's just less complexity

1298
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:55,920
I guess on the boards and stuff 
and somehow, you know, and then 

1299
01:06:55,920 --> 01:06:58,920
I actually, I while I have the 
most nostalgia for three, I'm 

1300
01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:02,120
gonna put three in the middle 
and I'm gonna put two at the top

1301
01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:07,120
because 2 shares similar games 
or the same games that we really

1302
01:07:07,120 --> 01:07:10,000
enjoyed from one. 
Plus it does have those 

1303
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:13,840
costumes. 
And I do agree that the whole 

1304
01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:17,440
like story or the way that you 
sort of go through the different

1305
01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:20,120
areas, I do like the maps better
in three, like the actual 

1306
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:24,040
boards, but I think the mix of 
the games and a little bit more 

1307
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:27,320
personality in two puts it 
towards the top, yeah. 

1308
01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:32,320
OK, I'm gonna go 312. 
OK, OK. 

1309
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:36,560
I think I think but but that 
being said that being thrown out

1310
01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:40,280
here when I say 3 is at the 
bottom. 

1311
01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:44,120
If we put the grand scale of 
Mario parties out there, those 

1312
01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:46,520
three would still be like in the
same order. 

1313
01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:48,040
Right? 
Like right. 

1314
01:07:48,600 --> 01:07:51,840
Like I don't know. 
I I've played I've played some 

1315
01:07:51,840 --> 01:07:53,560
of the game cube ones I think I 
have. 

1316
01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:58,840
I have seven laying around here 
and I used to have 4:00 but my 

1317
01:07:58,840 --> 01:08:01,120
friend borrowed it and never 
returned it. 

1318
01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:07,120
Yep, for shame, but for shame. 
Unless it unless it is back 

1319
01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:08,120
there. 
But I don't think it is. 

1320
01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:11,920
I'm pretty sure he borrowed he 
borrowed 3 games and it sucked 

1321
01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:16,399
because they were all good. 
Mario Party 4, Metroid Prime and

1322
01:08:16,399 --> 01:08:18,960
Zelda Windbreaker. 
I will not say his name, but he 

1323
01:08:18,960 --> 01:08:20,840
knows. 
But I've reacquired. 

1324
01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:23,000
I've reacquired all of those 
except for Mario Party. 

1325
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:26,960
OK, so, and I mean, I don't 
think he. 

1326
01:08:26,960 --> 01:08:29,080
Intentionally did it. 
I think it's just one of those 

1327
01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:30,279
things. 
He borrowed it when we were 

1328
01:08:30,279 --> 01:08:31,920
young. 
It just sort of, and we just. 

1329
01:08:32,399 --> 01:08:35,279
It just happens, yeah. 
And you know, he's still my good

1330
01:08:35,279 --> 01:08:37,359
friend of this day. 
But and I thought about bringing

1331
01:08:37,359 --> 01:08:39,040
it up to him, but I'm like, it's
not worth it. 

1332
01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:41,359
I'll just reacquire him. 
I mean, you could drop, you 

1333
01:08:41,359 --> 01:08:43,680
could drop a name if you want 
and if you listen, Yeah. 

1334
01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:45,760
Anyway, whatever you're 
comfortable with, man, yeah. 

1335
01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:49,760
That's all good. 
Hey, you know the on the flip 

1336
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:53,720
flop, on the flip flop that he's
giving me games, so oh OK, it's 

1337
01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:56,279
probably even Stevens. 
I will say I don't think they're

1338
01:08:56,279 --> 01:09:00,720
worth as much. 
Yeah, you're like, Oh no, it's 

1339
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:03,319
partying, but actually. 
Those are worth a pretty penny. 

1340
01:09:03,680 --> 01:09:05,240
Yo, yeah. 
Dude, those Mario Party games on

1341
01:09:05,240 --> 01:09:06,479
GameCube are worth a pretty 
penny. 

1342
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:07,040
Yeah? 
Which is? 

1343
01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:10,160
So crazy I it's something about 
the GameCube it's specifically 

1344
01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:12,279
is is with that right so. 
Yeah. 

1345
01:09:12,319 --> 01:09:14,800
And those, those Mario parties 
aren't as good, I mean. 

1346
01:09:15,600 --> 01:09:16,560
I don't know how I ever. 
Played. 

1347
01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:18,200
It's hit or miss. 
I don't know I I. 

1348
01:09:18,240 --> 01:09:20,319
I'm trying to think. 
Which was the 1st. 

1349
01:09:20,319 --> 01:09:21,640
One on Good. 
Ones on Wii. 

1350
01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:26,160
Wii I think was 7 or 8I. 
Think it's 87's the last one on 

1351
01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:27,120
GameCube. 
OK. 

1352
01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:29,640
And that one, I have that one. 
I think I've played eight. 

1353
01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:31,279
I might have even owned it. 
I don't know. 

1354
01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:37,279
I never owned a Wii U, so I. 
Skipped I skipped Wii Mario 

1355
01:09:37,279 --> 01:09:39,520
Parties. 
I skipped Wii U Mario Parties. 

1356
01:09:40,279 --> 01:09:42,720
I played the first one on 
Switch. 

1357
01:09:42,720 --> 01:09:45,120
Me too. 
It was fine. 

1358
01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:46,960
It wasn't. 
It wasn't great. 

1359
01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:49,760
It wasn't great. 
But the Superstars, that one 

1360
01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:52,560
takes elements from the first. 
I think it's the first four 

1361
01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:57,400
games 1234 and Mario Party four 
was pretty good on GameCube and 

1362
01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:03,240
that that Switch one, if you 
want to play elements of Mario 

1363
01:10:03,480 --> 01:10:07,320
Party just brought to modern day
with you know just awesome. 

1364
01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:09,640
That's a good one. 
I highly recommend that Switch 

1365
01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:11,560
one. 
It's super cool and if if you 

1366
01:10:11,640 --> 01:10:14,520
have a Switch you can play the 
original 3 on the expansion 

1367
01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:15,960
pass. 
Yeah, which is what we did 

1368
01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:17,240
online. 
That's what we did yeah. 

1369
01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,960
And and again the whole like 
your palm and using the joystick

1370
01:10:20,960 --> 01:10:23,040
and stuff. 
I I think like I played with 

1371
01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:25,560
like a a power, a wireless 
controller, you played with the 

1372
01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:29,240
with the N64 wireless thing that
you can get for switch and I I 

1373
01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:31,560
didn't feel like I was at like a
disadvantage sort of thing. 

1374
01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:34,040
But there's something about 
holding that 64 controller that 

1375
01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:37,720
I don't know. 
It somehow felt different. 

1376
01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:40,800
Yeah, there there are game, 
there are mini games in it that 

1377
01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:44,080
feel like the 64 joystick is 
really catered to. 

1378
01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:47,840
It's specifically made for that 
because there was the one in 

1379
01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:49,520
particular, it was like an ice 
pathway. 

1380
01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:51,200
You have to carry blocks, right?
Right. 

1381
01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:54,120
And I felt I could. 
So I know the, I know the 

1382
01:10:54,120 --> 01:10:58,600
technical answer to this is 
something like the range of the 

1383
01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:04,360
joystick is like 83% at full 
tilt or something like that, 

1384
01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:07,360
where as opposed to like I'm 
sure the Pro Controller is 

1385
01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:08,600
probably 100%. 
You know what? 

1386
01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:12,760
I'm saying between digital. 
And it's purposely less, Yeah. 

1387
01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:17,960
And I think that difference 
holds true to the design of the 

1388
01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:21,120
controller and just how it lays 
out in this mini game 'cause I 

1389
01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:24,360
can do full throttle and 
directions and it it feels 

1390
01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:27,680
right, whereas maybe you 
couldn't do that pro controller.

1391
01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:29,880
No, it's like it's like. 
I'm just throwing that out 

1392
01:11:29,880 --> 01:11:30,240
there. 
I don't. 

1393
01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:32,600
I don't know exactly. 
It it feels like it's it's 

1394
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:34,000
full-fledged, full speed or 
nothing. 

1395
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:35,240
Like that's that's what it felt 
like. 

1396
01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:40,880
But but I I don't know, I find 
the Bluetooth wireless one still

1397
01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:42,880
works. 
Yeah, I I had fun revisiting 

1398
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:44,160
these. 
I still had fun playing with 

1399
01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:47,280
with, you know with the power a 
controller and stuff like it's 

1400
01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:49,000
it's it's fine. 
You know I could have played it 

1401
01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:50,360
on. 
I might ever drive it would have

1402
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:52,200
been with the actual controller.
That's fine. 

1403
01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:54,560
But I I wanted to play this. 
We played it together. 

1404
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:56,040
I think it was still a good 
time. 

1405
01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:58,080
I think it still works. 
I don't know what it feels like 

1406
01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:01,440
with the joy cons, probably not 
quite as great, but. 

1407
01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:03,880
Probably trash. 
Yeah, I wouldn't even bother 

1408
01:12:03,880 --> 01:12:07,840
with joy cons. 
Yeah, like it's fine but. 

1409
01:12:07,840 --> 01:12:10,000
Unless you're in handheld. 
Yeah, unless you're in handheld.

1410
01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:12,560
Yeah, I actually started that 
when I booted up. 

1411
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:15,880
I think I booted up, booted them
up in order, 123 and I like 

1412
01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:19,000
played like a couple of rounds 
and I was like, oh, this feels 

1413
01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:20,640
weird. 
It's cool to have it handheld, 

1414
01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:22,320
but I didn't like the way it 
felt. 

1415
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:25,360
So then I just docked it and I 
use the controller and it was it

1416
01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:28,640
was better, but yeah, yeah. 
Mario Party is a multiplayer 

1417
01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:30,880
game, man. 
I know, I know, It was good. 

1418
01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:32,440
It was good. 
Even just playing team people, 

1419
01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:35,240
even just two people is fine. 
You know, I don't, I don't mind 

1420
01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:39,600
that it it adds a little bit, 
you know of of the human element

1421
01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:42,120
of of error or competition or 
however you want to see it. 

1422
01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:44,320
I it was good. 
I I had a good time. 

1423
01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:47,920
I still think these games are 
worth going back and playing and

1424
01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:49,520
because they're on the expansion
pack. 

1425
01:12:49,520 --> 01:12:53,400
If if you do have that play a 
couple rounds, play a couple 

1426
01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:55,720
mini games, try to find ones 
that might work for you that you

1427
01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:58,800
like the best or don't like and 
I think you'll get a good taste.

1428
01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:01,800
You don't if you're playing on 
your own, just play 20 turns 

1429
01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:05,240
because 35 takes a while 
depending on what map you're 

1430
01:13:05,240 --> 01:13:06,720
playing or which which board 
you're playing. 

1431
01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:10,720
We play 35 turns and took about 
two hours which is not nothing 

1432
01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:14,880
so. 
Yeah, it it was kind of long and

1433
01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:19,600
but I will say that I don't 
think 2 hours is an accurate 

1434
01:13:19,600 --> 01:13:24,240
time frame for all Mario Party 
rounds at 35 because this map we

1435
01:13:24,240 --> 01:13:28,000
picked, like I said, we had this
cutscene every it had to have 

1436
01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:32,720
added like a solid 25 minutes. 
Yeah, to our play time. 

1437
01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:34,600
And then like you mentioned 
earlier with like skipping 

1438
01:13:34,600 --> 01:13:36,200
things, the fact that you can't 
do that. 

1439
01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:39,720
So like the computer characters 
get an item game and you have to

1440
01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:41,640
sit and watch that for like 3 to
4 minutes. 

1441
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:43,800
Like that happens 10 times. 
Boom. 

1442
01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:46,720
You got an extra half hour. 
Like, that's that's a lot. 

1443
01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:49,160
Yeah, right. 
So yeah, that's true. 

1444
01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:49,960
That's a good. 
That's a good point. 

1445
01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:51,400
Plus, you could also have a safe
state. 

1446
01:13:51,480 --> 01:13:53,200
So I guess there's a way around 
it a little bit. 

1447
01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:54,280
You don't have to do it. 
Yeah, that's true. 

1448
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:57,880
Do it all in one chunk. 
But yeah, Mario Party 123, still

1449
01:13:57,880 --> 01:14:00,880
pretty good time, still fun 
ideas, I think, which is, which 

1450
01:14:00,880 --> 01:14:02,800
is really what it's all about. 
Just going to go have a fun 

1451
01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:05,160
time, definitely much better 
time when you play with other 

1452
01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:07,600
people if you can. 
The fact that you can online now

1453
01:14:07,600 --> 01:14:11,080
on Switch is great. 
We had very little issue with 

1454
01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:12,520
any connection. 
I don't think we really ran into

1455
01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:13,800
much at all. 
So that was great. 

1456
01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:15,880
We're good. 
Yeah, we're good. 

1457
01:14:15,880 --> 01:14:18,160
I was playing off wireless, 
everything was was totally fine.

1458
01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:22,760
So yeah, other than that, man, 
Mario Party, good way to end off

1459
01:14:22,760 --> 01:14:25,960
2023. 
We're going to have some, if 

1460
01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:28,000
you're listening to this, 
towards the tail end of 2023 or 

1461
01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:32,120
early 24. 
We're going into a year of some 

1462
01:14:32,120 --> 01:14:35,440
random fun ideas we're going to.
Dig. 

1463
01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:37,640
Yeah, we're gonna dig into some.
We're definitely gonna be 

1464
01:14:37,640 --> 01:14:42,120
playing through the N64 library.
But Jiggy, you did this a little

1465
01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:44,360
while ago where you played some 
mods of games. 

1466
01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:48,080
We're gonna continue that idea. 
We're gonna do more of that. 

1467
01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:53,000
We're going to find games that 
have mods or unreleased games 

1468
01:14:53,040 --> 01:14:56,240
or, you know, things like that. 
And we're going to play those 

1469
01:14:56,400 --> 01:14:59,040
and review those every couple of
episodes as well and have that 

1470
01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:03,320
experience, because why not 
experience something new while 

1471
01:15:03,320 --> 01:15:06,120
also feeling retro, you know, I 
think it's, it's kind of cool. 

1472
01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:09,800
This is, this is what I'm this 
is what I'm doing. 

1473
01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:13,360
I'm playing a lot of these mods,
just random mods that I'm 

1474
01:15:13,360 --> 01:15:17,120
finding for different games on 
live stream and just kind of 

1475
01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:21,000
like playing through a couple of
them, just for a little bit here

1476
01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:24,240
and there to find the good ones,
OK? 

1477
01:15:24,240 --> 01:15:26,720
And then I'm coming back and 
remember 64. 

1478
01:15:26,720 --> 01:15:29,480
I'm like, these are the ones we 
need to play. 

1479
01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:31,480
This guy's putting in the work. 
I'm just sitting here. 

1480
01:15:32,160 --> 01:15:38,400
I I am so interested in the idea
that I put out a video that I 

1481
01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:43,840
called the N64 is King in 2024 
or why the N64 is King in 2024. 

1482
01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:48,960
I I I think mods are a huge 
factor into that. 

1483
01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:54,000
You've got some retro console 
release like re releases you 

1484
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:57,960
have, I can't remember, it's 
like the Poly Meg or something 

1485
01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:02,440
like that. 
It is a emulator console kind of

1486
01:16:02,440 --> 01:16:06,520
like a retron a little bit. 
But you you have mods that you 

1487
01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:10,600
can detach and put on and it can
read the physical hardware and 

1488
01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:15,040
they just made an N64 one and it
will HDMI out upscale. 

1489
01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:17,360
Amazing. 
Everything right from and that's

1490
01:16:17,360 --> 01:16:20,640
super cool. 
Analog 3D is coming out with our

1491
01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:23,880
analog is coming up with the 
analog 3D, which is their thing.

1492
01:16:23,880 --> 01:16:28,640
And I'm just so excited about 
these new consoles that could 

1493
01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:33,400
potentially make the 64 games 
look as good as I remember on my

1494
01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:36,040
modern screen which is super 
cool. 

1495
01:16:37,360 --> 01:16:39,960
And and just follow that up with
all these mods that people are 

1496
01:16:39,960 --> 01:16:42,640
making. 
They're they're making because 

1497
01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:44,840
when you think of mods, you 
think you probably think on the 

1498
01:16:44,840 --> 01:16:47,120
limited scope of cosmetics, 
right? 

1499
01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:52,320
You think, oh, it'd be funny. 
It'd be funny to play Smash Bros

1500
01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:56,200
and you play as Wolf, but it's 
just Fox that looks like Wolf, 

1501
01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:59,240
which is, you know, because a 
lot of, you know, that's kind of

1502
01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:02,240
like the Skyrim effect. 
I'd say like mods like that. 

1503
01:17:02,560 --> 01:17:05,160
But these, we're talking mods 
that are full games. 

1504
01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:09,880
I'm not joking with you like 
we're talking Kirko mods. 

1505
01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:13,280
I'm going to shout him out a 
little bit because Banjo Kazooie

1506
01:17:13,280 --> 01:17:17,480
Jiggies of Time I Played, I went
in expecting it to be like this 

1507
01:17:17,480 --> 01:17:22,600
little one hour experience of 
oh, it's Banjo in Zelda of 

1508
01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:24,840
Ocarina of Time. 
Like he just put Banjo in that 

1509
01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:29,800
world and you just play around. 
No, it's it is that. 

1510
01:17:30,120 --> 01:17:33,440
But it's so much more than that.
Literally the whole world is 

1511
01:17:33,440 --> 01:17:37,840
redesigned around Banjo. 
All the dialogue is different 

1512
01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:38,760
some. 
Changes. 

1513
01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:44,840
Like the castle town that you go
into right before High Rule is 

1514
01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:49,040
an entire level and it's 
platforming and it's it's got 

1515
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:53,760
its own transformations original
dialogue, story. 

1516
01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:58,960
It's incredible. 
I I was just blown away and that

1517
01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:01,240
was just the start and I found 
so many other mods. 

1518
01:18:01,240 --> 01:18:07,120
So you got to stay tuned, follow
Drop a like you need to stay 

1519
01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:10,520
tuned to this podcast because we
will be exploring some really 

1520
01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:14,360
cool stuff and I have reached 
out to some very cool people 

1521
01:18:14,360 --> 01:18:17,080
that we could potentially have 
as some guests to talk about 

1522
01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:20,240
these games and these mods and 
things. 

1523
01:18:20,880 --> 01:18:23,400
Just super cool. 
It's going to be a great year 

1524
01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:27,600
and I'm super excited to go 
through and play some of these 

1525
01:18:27,800 --> 01:18:31,080
new experiences of old 
experiences. 

1526
01:18:31,360 --> 01:18:34,240
On on original hardware and 
everything too, which is super 

1527
01:18:34,240 --> 01:18:36,120
awesome. 
Like, that's that's the cool 

1528
01:18:36,120 --> 01:18:38,480
part about it too. 
There's also like a few game, I 

1529
01:18:38,480 --> 01:18:40,160
mean not a few. 
There's definitely quite a few 

1530
01:18:40,160 --> 01:18:43,560
games out there that are, that 
are new that you can play on PC 

1531
01:18:43,560 --> 01:18:47,360
for example, and use modern 
controllers or a USB N64 

1532
01:18:47,360 --> 01:18:52,640
controller that are N64 graphics
and types of adventure games and

1533
01:18:52,640 --> 01:18:55,640
stuff like those as well. 
We'll try and dig into that 

1534
01:18:55,720 --> 01:18:58,520
along with moving through more 
of the library of the actual 

1535
01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:01,080
N64. 
So like, I'm excited because 

1536
01:19:01,080 --> 01:19:04,600
we're going to be playing tons 
of stuff that we've never played

1537
01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:06,400
before or have very little 
experience with. 

1538
01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:09,120
And that's why I love doing 
this, is because we've run into 

1539
01:19:09,120 --> 01:19:13,160
that so many times already. 
And and I'm excited 2024 is 

1540
01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:16,440
going to be awesome. 
So I just want to say, you know,

1541
01:19:16,440 --> 01:19:18,760
if you've made it this far 
through through this episode and

1542
01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:24,240
this show at all, like in any 
way whatsoever, thank you so far

1543
01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:28,360
for coming along for the ride. 
Jiggy came on as more of a 

1544
01:19:28,800 --> 01:19:34,320
regular and more of a A Co host 
seat pretty much almost this 

1545
01:19:34,320 --> 01:19:37,560
entire year. 
Once Donkey Kong 64 hit it was 

1546
01:19:37,560 --> 01:19:40,360
like well this is a no brainer, 
let's keep this shit show on the

1547
01:19:40,360 --> 01:19:41,840
road. 
Let's keep going, I. 

1548
01:19:41,840 --> 01:19:43,640
Can't believe it's been an 
entire year. 

1549
01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:45,800
Almost, yeah. 
Cuz I think Donkey Kong was 

1550
01:19:45,800 --> 01:19:49,080
March or April. 
So yeah, it's been that long and

1551
01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:52,720
honestly it's it's great. 
It's great to have different 

1552
01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:55,400
experiences, like we're joking 
about our age and stuff, but 

1553
01:19:55,400 --> 01:19:57,360
that's all great because it adds
to the different perspectives 

1554
01:19:57,360 --> 01:20:00,200
and everything. 
So I'm all for it and I'm 

1555
01:20:00,200 --> 01:20:03,720
excited to to keep kicking ass 
and taking names for the N64 as 

1556
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:07,120
we go forward. 
Remember 64 show across the 

1557
01:20:07,120 --> 01:20:10,120
board as far as social media 
goes, spending more time on 

1558
01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:13,360
threads than other ones at the 
moment so far, but that could 

1559
01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:14,880
change, I don't know. 
Everything's up in the air at 

1560
01:20:14,880 --> 01:20:16,440
this point. 
And Jiggy, why don't we tell 

1561
01:20:16,440 --> 01:20:18,360
everybody about your work? 
Really. 

1562
01:20:18,360 --> 01:20:20,440
I. 
Don't know. 

1563
01:20:20,680 --> 01:20:24,200
I don't know at this moment that
I'm sitting here at this moment 

1564
01:20:24,200 --> 01:20:27,720
that I'm sitting here at least. 
Gotcha. 

1565
01:20:27,720 --> 01:20:33,120
Before we talk about mine, I 
just want to say that people 

1566
01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:38,600
need to go on and actually rate 
the podcast, OK. 

1567
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:39,920
If you're if you're having a 
good time. 

1568
01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:42,520
I feel like we don't say that. 
I mean you do in the show 

1569
01:20:42,520 --> 01:20:45,560
sometimes, if not every time 
keywords. 

1570
01:20:45,720 --> 01:20:48,080
I just want to. 
Keywords sometimes because I 

1571
01:20:48,080 --> 01:20:49,920
forget. 
Sometimes, yeah. 

1572
01:20:50,800 --> 01:20:54,280
I think it's important to go. 
If you like what you hear and 

1573
01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:58,480
even better if you like what you
see, definitely need to go. 

1574
01:20:59,040 --> 01:21:00,600
You need to go review this 
podcast. 

1575
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:01,800
OK. 
It's on Spotify. 

1576
01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:06,600
It's on Apple podcast. 
Basically, the more the more 

1577
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:10,000
positive reviews we get, the 
more credible we are, the better

1578
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:13,480
guests we can get on the show. 
OK, that's that's just what it 

1579
01:21:13,480 --> 01:21:15,600
comes down to. 
I think I we've got some cool 

1580
01:21:15,600 --> 01:21:19,840
stuff coming. 
But I I just, I think if you 

1581
01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:23,560
would just take a second and go 
review the podcast, just drop 

1582
01:21:23,560 --> 01:21:26,680
five stars, OK? 
Just drop five stars so you 

1583
01:21:26,680 --> 01:21:28,360
don't need to think about it. 
Just drop five. 

1584
01:21:28,920 --> 01:21:31,560
OK. 
And if it's out of 10, just drop

1585
01:21:31,560 --> 01:21:33,960
a 10. 
But I'm pretty sure it's 5 S 

1586
01:21:34,280 --> 01:21:38,640
Just drop 5 Power Stars for 
Mario Party and you can be 

1587
01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:41,720
superstar as well, yes? 
OK. 

1588
01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:45,880
And also I put out, Speaking of 
like Spotify, for example, 

1589
01:21:45,880 --> 01:21:48,480
because I run it through their 
system, the the uploading, the, 

1590
01:21:48,480 --> 01:21:50,960
the episodes and stuff. 
They have the cool thing where 

1591
01:21:50,960 --> 01:21:53,440
you can ask like a question if 
you listen on Spotify and you 

1592
01:21:53,440 --> 01:21:55,040
can answer that question 
similar. 

1593
01:21:55,040 --> 01:21:57,080
It's when I was talking about 
the nerd question of the day and

1594
01:21:57,080 --> 01:21:58,680
like, oh, who would you party 
with or something. 

1595
01:21:58,960 --> 01:22:00,560
You can do that on the episode 
itself. 

1596
01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:02,880
So within Spotify, you can 
actually put an answer in there.

1597
01:22:03,080 --> 01:22:05,600
And if you do, if you answer to 
that question, some of them will

1598
01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:08,080
just say, like, you know, did 
you enjoy this episode? 

1599
01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:10,160
But other ones I tried to come 
up with like funny questions or 

1600
01:22:10,160 --> 01:22:12,400
something like that that's 
related to the game, like what 

1601
01:22:12,400 --> 01:22:14,600
was your favorite mini game, For
example, what was your favorite 

1602
01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:17,920
Mario party and all that. 
And then those responses will go

1603
01:22:17,920 --> 01:22:20,280
up on the feeds for other people
that find the show. 

1604
01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:22,960
We'll see what you said on that.
So it's kind of a cool thing 

1605
01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:25,040
where it's a little bit of a 
quiz show type of thing and not 

1606
01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:26,880
quiz show a little. 
How many type? 

1607
01:22:26,920 --> 01:22:31,200
How many tangents, how many 
tangents unrelated to the topic 

1608
01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:35,040
did jiggy go off into? 
Hey, I encourage you, man. 

1609
01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:36,320
I'm all for it. 
I'm all for it. 

1610
01:22:36,320 --> 01:22:38,200
So. 
There's at least 4. 

1611
01:22:38,400 --> 01:22:39,520
That's fine. 
That's fine. 

1612
01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:42,040
I I learned something. 
I learned about beyblades today.

1613
01:22:42,040 --> 01:22:44,040
I'm not going to say that's a 
negative. 

1614
01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:46,600
Dude, dude. 
OK, Beyblades. 

1615
01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:49,520
But here's the thing, OK, you 
need to know this before we go. 

1616
01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:52,720
Beyblades today are not the same
as Beyblades back then. 

1617
01:22:53,280 --> 01:22:56,200
OK? 
Beyblades today, even though 

1618
01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:59,040
they're they're they're metal 
and they might have some cool 

1619
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:03,800
effects like mine growing up. 
I mean they were plastic razor 

1620
01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:06,480
blades. 
They were not safe at all. 

1621
01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:09,920
You were in danger of losing an 
eye, losing a finger, like 

1622
01:23:09,920 --> 01:23:11,680
anything. 
They're amazing. 

1623
01:23:11,840 --> 01:23:14,400
We would, we would mod them. 
You had different things, like 

1624
01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:16,560
it reached a point where they 
would add like magnets to them 

1625
01:23:16,560 --> 01:23:19,240
so they'd have like rappelling 
and attracting effects, which 

1626
01:23:19,240 --> 01:23:21,800
was cool. 
And then beyond that they would 

1627
01:23:21,800 --> 01:23:26,360
even have gears inside of them 
so that when you reached a point

1628
01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:29,160
in the battle, all of a sudden 
your Beyblade would just like 

1629
01:23:29,160 --> 01:23:33,760
crank the gears on and it would 
gain momentum back and like 

1630
01:23:33,760 --> 01:23:37,160
spinning power back. 
So if that doesn't like sound 

1631
01:23:37,160 --> 01:23:40,760
like the dopest toy ever It was 
so cool. 

1632
01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:42,720
It does sound cool. 
It does sound cool. 

1633
01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:45,280
It was just after my time. 
Is is really all that? 

1634
01:23:45,280 --> 01:23:46,440
That's really the only reason 
why. 

1635
01:23:46,440 --> 01:23:49,920
The only reason why, but the 
culture was there like I I was 

1636
01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:51,800
hyped for a reason because. 
My cousin. 

1637
01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:53,960
Said. 
I did want to be the Bay Bay 

1638
01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:57,040
Champion of the world. 
Hey, no one said you weren't. 

1639
01:23:57,040 --> 01:23:59,200
You just said that you were. 
I would have believed you. 

1640
01:24:00,840 --> 01:24:02,680
Yeah, but I'm. 
I'm not like that. 

1641
01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:05,240
I'm honest, you know. 
Honest to a fault. 

1642
01:24:06,880 --> 01:24:10,280
Honest, to a fault, but anyways,
you can find my stuff on YouTube

1643
01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:11,720
for the most part. 
I mean, I'm on. 

1644
01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:13,800
I'm on all the socials. 
I'm on the Tic Tacs. 

1645
01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:20,560
I'm on the, the, the, the, the, 
the, the Twitter XS and the 

1646
01:24:20,600 --> 01:24:23,000
threads and the you know, all 
that jazz. 

1647
01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:24,320
I don't post on threads that 
much. 

1648
01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:26,800
Dave seems to be really into it.
I'm not really into it. 

1649
01:24:26,800 --> 01:24:30,440
I I would say my my wheelhouse 
pretty much revolves around 

1650
01:24:30,440 --> 01:24:35,320
YouTube, and actually I've been 
spending a lot of time on X 

1651
01:24:35,400 --> 01:24:38,920
lately because it's been a lot 
of fun. 

1652
01:24:39,240 --> 01:24:43,640
Kind of get into little little 
fights with people in in good 

1653
01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:46,120
fun, not serious fights. 
Everyone has their own sense of 

1654
01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:49,640
fun, That's fine. 
Everyone, everyone has really 

1655
01:24:49,640 --> 01:24:53,680
strong opinions about games and 
I like to push the buttons 

1656
01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:58,800
sometimes. 
And my opinions are always just 

1657
01:25:00,160 --> 01:25:04,080
way like, I don't know, People 
say I have good takes. 

1658
01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:08,520
OK, I'm not saying my opinions 
are right, but I I was going to 

1659
01:25:08,520 --> 01:25:11,160
say my opinions are usually like
way different than when other 

1660
01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:15,040
people they like. 
My opinions are usually against 

1661
01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:20,880
the popular opinion generally. 
But usually there's a good 

1662
01:25:20,880 --> 01:25:23,080
amount of people that are like, 
yeah, that's a good take. 

1663
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:25,880
And I'm like, OK, like, I don't 
know, maybe I can just spin my 

1664
01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:28,640
opinion in such a way that it 
makes it sound better than it 

1665
01:25:28,640 --> 01:25:31,680
actually is. 
But you know, I love all the 

1666
01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:36,280
retro games, so I'm just be like
Call of Duty Donkey Kong 64. 

1667
01:25:37,800 --> 01:25:41,320
Take that which. 
Free people out of 20 would 

1668
01:25:41,320 --> 01:25:45,080
probably agree with me, but 
yeah, it's a lot of fun. 

1669
01:25:45,080 --> 01:25:47,200
But yeah, YouTube YouTube's 
growing like crazy. 

1670
01:25:47,360 --> 01:25:49,000

crazy. 

1671
01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:55,800

server has remember 64 stuff on 

1672
01:25:55,800 --> 01:25:56,760
it. 
Dave's in it.

We talk, we chat about all sorts
of stuff that's growing, but the

1674
01:26:01,600 --> 01:26:04,280
YouTube is really growing. 
I'm kind of blown away by how 

1675
01:26:04,280 --> 01:26:09,280
it's growing. 
So yeah, I just recently became

So it's cool. 

1677
01:26:12,720 --> 01:26:17,240

01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:39,600
If you've been watching us, you 
can also find I'm going to try 

1686
01:26:39,600 --> 01:26:42,280
and if I can get the time to 
sort of get the editing and all 

1687
01:26:42,280 --> 01:26:44,120
that kind of stuff going, I'm 
going to try and put up the full

1688
01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:48,520
playthrough of our time as well 
for our two hour session. 

1689
01:26:49,080 --> 01:26:51,440
We didn't spoil who won, so 
you'll have to fight, wait, 

1690
01:26:51,440 --> 01:26:56,640
watch and find out any guesses 
and. 

1691
