Hey, you guys, hear me start cheering now, yer, let's get guys off our lead wolf.

Hi.

I'm Mike Manadi and I am a Nintendo.

Hi, I'm Jeff Grubbin.

I am a nten dog.

We are the last of the Nintendo today.

Is there gonna be a direct in September?

Somehow?

Acclaim has returned and Nintendo says, I just make your games on Switch one.

It'll be fine.

It'll be fine.

But first, Jeffree grub how is it going, buddy?

It's going pretty good.

I went down downtown Cleveland today to our office and got some male and people are sick.

They're sick, people.

Sending me multiple multiple copies of ballin Wonder World for every platform known to man.

I got another copy of Concord and another copy of the film Nubes on DVD.

So did I get anything good?

Yeah?

I got Trespasser, and I got a new shirt from Lexi, and I actually got a punch out a golf club cover, one of those little things somebody sent.

Somebody sent me that that actually is really cool.

That's the coolest thing I got for sure.

Oh that's really neat cool, suck.

I just came back from seeing Teenagemutt Ninja Turtles, the original movie back in theaters for a little bit, well my brothers and some of the kiddos.

It was a very very very good time.

That movie still rules so fantastic.

It's like an actual good movie.

I know a lot of people prefer Secret of the Us, and like, of course I get that, but do you for that first teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.

I think like holds up to the test of time in a way that maybe the other one doesn't quite.

But they're both great movies.

Yeah, I mean, you know, I think when they made two, they're like, oh, we want to make this one bit more for kids.

I think as a most kids definitely prefer to and I liked it so much as a kid that I have more nostalgia for it.

But yeah, like one is a better movie.

They're both very good.

I can watch both of them an infinite amount of times, and then three does like nothing for me.

But yeah, I think, but there's just so good, and it's just I'm so glad they made those movies when they did, Wait in the perfect time for those right, It's like right before CG became too much of a thing.

And you have Jim Henson Creature Shop there to make these insanely good looking just actual costumes for the turtles.

Gosh, it's just a super fun movie.

Yeah, you're right.

It's like the perfect time where that animatronic you know, puppeteer technology got to a point where it was really good if you had people who knew what they were doing, and they did and then yeah, they didn't have to sort of rely on cg It just wouldn't have worked anytime for a long time.

And then when they could do it, it looked terrible.

So very lucky, very lucky that we got that movie when we did, for sure.

Oh yeah, yeah, go ahead.

Was there ever a moment where those Michael Bay movies looked better than the original live action?

Not for not for a second.

No, that was deeply disturbing to look out unfortunately.

Uh what about the tooth?

You chip your tooth?

You went to the dentist, right, did you get it fixed or what?

Yeah, it's already fixed.

Like, yeah, chipped my two round yesterday just holding holding a glass bottle in my mouth for a bit.

Was he something else with my arms?

Yeah?

So this tooth here is it's a fake it's a cap, I'm alive nothing.

Yeah, but so I just chipped that a little bit.

He didn't even have to replace the crown, which is nice.

He just put some kind of filling.

Yeah, and he said, like, you know, sometimes these things don't hold, but it should be good.

Just be gentle on it.

But that's good.

It's not that goes that noticable.

But it just it drove me crazy.

Sure, I was on it, you know, jump, I'm not very angry person, but when I saw that it was chipped, I was like, yeah, no, I.

Think everyone knows that feeling of just like now I got to deal with this stupid shit.

Well, what drove me crazy was when it happened.

It was six pm, so the Dennis was closed.

I just hated not knowing when can this be taken care of?

Of course?

Yeah yeah, I dropped something earlier today and got very mad.

So that's what that's what gets me.

You know, we have difficult lives.

It's gonna listen.

I don't know if we're gonna make it, but we're gonna try.

Everybody, we're gonna try to get through this together.

Uh yeah, okay, so we got the tooth, We've got the teenage Muting Ninja Turtle update, anything else going on in the.

World of Mikey Oh my gosh.

I finally watched K Pop Demon Hunters.

It was very good.

It's a good movie.

I haven't actually like sat down to watch it watch it, but it's been on a million times in the house, so I caught a lot of it, and I do.

I think that music is very good.

It is.

It is that favorite song right now, right now.

I love them.

I like the gold the gold is Golden, the one where she's trying to sing it and like her voice gives.

Out or whatever that's golden like that.

I think I like the very end song that they sing.

Soda Pop of course, absolute banger.

I was just talking to my niece and she likes soda Pop and she's like, she doesn't even really like Hunt Tricks.

She's she's all about the bad guys and their songs better.

She's like, if she was just one of the normis in that movie, she would have absolutely gone for them instead of Okay, what I'm trying to figure out what this tent is an n s O update, But it's not figured games.

It's what does that mean?

What else could it be you know, it's kind of no just figure just guess you're gonna get it in one.

I bet actually have no idea.

What what like a new theme for Tetra Thine and I think they already announced that?

Is it like more CRT filters?

All right, I'm just gonna look it up.

Yeah, I don't know.

Nintendo doesn't announced anything on Twitter that I can see.

I would more see her you felt there's yeah, sure, mouse shit.

I mean I see this thing here about i'll get put your mouse control skills to the test and welcome toward.

No, we've already done that, so I don't know.

I'll look it up later.

I don't see mouse controls for more super Nintendo games.

What other games needed mouse controls?

I mean that's kind of neat, that's sure, I'll take it.

Cool, Yeah, because what else is on there?

Or that would?

I mean there are those Koe Techmode games with some of those benefits of mouse controls.

Yeah, I bet I bet those support mouse Yeah, there's also yeah super pit Crosses on there, right or yeah that could be one.

Yeah, they're there to Pit Cross and Nobunaga.

I think it's neat.

Yep, I'll take it absolutely, although I'm Mario maker to get mouse controls more than any of that, but yeah, whatever, Well, I'm not going to complain about this, all.

Right, but let's talk about some of the other Nintendo news going on.

Jeff, Well, this isn't really news, but everybody is speculating about a direct happening in mid September.

Some people it could be on September twelfth, which is the day before my brother's fortieth anniversary.

So people are wondering if we're going to see some Mario things.

And then there's also Metro Prime four Beyond, which was rated very recently by the ESRB here and was ready before that in South Korea, so it feels like this they could be happening relatively soon.

And there's other Metroid Prime news we're hoping for in terms of Metroid Prime two in three coming out on Switch.

So you know, where do you say on all this, you think a September direct is happening?

We didn't have one last year, but we usually do have a September direct.

Yeah, yeah, and you know, I think we could figure out the reason we didn't have one last year as they were just waiting for the Switch to launch.

So it's here now, so I'm fully expecting a direct in September now.

Yeah, yeah, it probably happens.

But I tell you what if it's happening on September twelfth, because the next day is the Mario Anniversary.

That's a Friday.

And if they're really kind of like maneuvering it in that way, it better be a big deal for Mario, because otherwise, why are they like airing it on what effectively would be a Saturday in Japan.

That's very unusual.

So I'm not saying I don't think that that's the case.

It would be odd, but it wouldn't be completely odd if they're trying to lean into the Mario stuff.

So how much Mario stuff could there possibly be?

Yeah, I guess it could be a movie trailer, then that could be it.

I was about to say, this is the sequel to the Mario movie.

It's going to come out on April third, twenty twenty six.

That's not so far away that we couldn't get a teaser trailer of some kind.

Yeah, and you know what, you know, we're here September twelfth, maybe it's September twelfth in Japan.

We're going to get it on Thursday here or something like that.

So we'll see.

But yeah, I mean, look, they want to set up their holiday.

They want to have a super strong first holiday for the switch to They do have games that still need dates, obviously Metroid Prime for but they also just want to remind everybody about everything else that's happening.

I want to remind people about Kirby that's happening this week.

So every Pokemon Legends, ZA need a release date for Higher Warriors, Agents, Imprisonment.

Age of Imprisonment.

Yeah, so the director just kind of makes a lot of sense.

I guess.

Then the question is, okay, but Mario's stuff maybe probably who knows a Metroid Prime before?

Definitely?

Sure, Mike, do they have teases for something.

Early next year?

Do they still have a surprise game?

Well, I don't know.

You know, don't forget out some of the other games that were announcing that switch one direct that you know, good point.

I could be switched to games also in one way or another, whether it's backwards compatibility or switch to versions.

But there is Tomadacci Life, there is Rhythm Heaven, and you know, there still could be another game this year, probably not something huge, but maybe it is something like that Fire roumb Them is coming out in December, right, something like that, or you know, we find about something out about something in January like last year Anuary we had Dooky Kong Country Returns HD another remaster or something like that.

Yeah, yeah, and so I mean they could fill it in with any number of things.

I wouldn't be surprised if we get a tease for one switch to game that's coming out in the first half of next year.

But nothing massive, nothing huge.

Yeah, God, I always forget about Splatoon Raiders.

That is a thing.

Also, Yeah, that's also a thing, that's right, So and that's from is that from the team that does Animal cross And I can't remember if they're pie so actually yeah, yeah right, so maybe me like something like an Animal Crossing feels like a year two game.

So it's like that wouldn't be teased quite yet, although I guess it could pop off any moment.

It could be.

But yeah, that's you know, that's obviously I still believe that that's very likely to be their big twenty twenty six game for sure.

Yep.

Either way, I am, I'm looking forward to it.

Nick says we should get a Galaxy too remaster Slashboard.

He nick, yeah, I mean I would love that.

You know, the reasons that they didn't do it last time still stand.

I don't know if the mouse control certainly don't change anything.

They want to be able to have it so you can point at the screen like you could in Galaxy two on the Wii, so you can control Yoshi's tongue.

And they don't have an elegant solution for that, although I think they should just come up with one.

Just you're Nintendo figure it out.

So I don't know they could.

That could still happen, and that would be a very exciting thing to see for the fortieth anniversary.

It's funny.

It's like one of the first times we're not even thinking about when Waker HD now now that we just kind of got that on NS which he maybe that's why we suddenly get it.

Yeah, yeah, exactly, now that at least now we've let down our guard, they'll hit us all that stuff.

God, that would be nice if that could happen, But I don't know.

Okay, so switch would be switched to devs are saying that Nintendo is not giving them dev kits in an are facts telling them to just make their games through the Switch one.

There, you decided to make a video game for our console, You piece of shit.

Get the fuck out of here either, Bill kill you.

Digital Foundry DF Direct Weekly podcast was kind of talking about this and saying that they heard this was the case.

I know that title does word stuff, but this just seems wild to me because we're already seeing like negative effects of this with stuff like Ninja Guide and Rage Bound not having a switch to version, so the game just kind of runs poorly on even a switch to.

It's making the switch to feel weaker than it should.

And I have no idea why Nintendo is doing this.

Yeah, it's it's hard to figure out.

Uh, you know, I'm trying to remember.

I don't remember it being this bad for the Switch one.

I guess there was a little bit of this, but for the Switch one, I just don't think it was.

They were as guarded as there being this time around, and it's stupid.

It just means fewer games or the games aren't as good as they can be, and to what end?

Because Nintendo's weird and maybe scared of something in their head that they've made up, or maybe it's real.

But it's like you're going to have to just work around that, you have to just deal with that, and they just don't.

Yeah.

I mean people are saying it's the same for it was the same for the Switch one, but gosh, maybe it was with third parties whatnot.

But there was so much indie stuff happening there that it was fine.

And if this is the case, if they are telling indie developers just make your game for Switch one and backwards compatibility is going to take care of it, I dislike that heavily.

I want switched to versions of even the indie games.

It's not like all indie games are just suddenly super simple.

Hoo'sy, what's it that can run off of twenty seventeen mobile hardware and architecture.

Let's take advantage of this brand new video game machine you just charged me almost six hundred dollars for.

Yeah.

I hope this gets solved quickly.

You know, these are early day problems.

These are problems that in a year we look back and like, oh, I remember when it was like that.

But let's hope it doesn't take that long.

Just get it fixed by this holiday.

Let every developer that wants to make a switch to native game, make it, make a switch to naive game, get them all deaf, gets let's go.

I think it's sounding like even Shanobi's just going to kind of have a switch one version.

You know, look for some games.

Maybe that's fine.

You know, there's a lot of quote unquote PlayStation five games that are just PS four versus you play on there because it's like the Capcom Fighting Collection two or something like that whatever.

But you know when it is like rage Bow and it's like, well, this doesn't look good.

I wish there was a switch to version.

It could become very frustrating.

Absolutely.

Did you also see, like I know, Digital Foundry was, you know, talking about how bad holden Ring is running on switch too, and meanwhile stuff like file pacey seven remake looking pretty good on there.

Yeah.

I like before earlier tonight I recorded a video will put it up on the YouTube channel here at some point talking about elder Ring and it's like, I don't have a lot of hope for that game on switch to when I think about it, because Switch or elden Ring ran really good on the Steam Deck, but that was valve like going in and helping out, like they were like Hey, don't worry, we got this.

We're gonna just include the shaders in an update for the Steam Deck and so everyone that just gets the game, it's just gonna be good to go.

And that's why the game like ran more with like more with a more smooth frame rate on the Steam Deck than on any other platform at launch.

And Nintendo just isn't gonna fucking do that.

They're just not gonna do stuff like that, or if they are, it's it seems very sporadic.

Now, maybe there's some hope because Shivers Entertainment.

Nintendo acquired Shivers Entertainment last year, that support studio that was doing some pretty decent work of getting games running on Switch that otherwise shouldn't run on Switch, and they did a really apparently they were involved in that WWE two K twenty five port for Switch to that is pretty good.

So there is a team that Nintendo owns that they could send out and dispatch into these into these moments to like, hey, this game is super important, go make sure that they have the tech that they need.

But I don't know what from Soft's appetite is to like let someone in and I don't know what Nintendo's appetite is to send anyone out, So that's definitely just me making things up hoping that this game is going to run on the switch To.

I think the reality is both of these companies are so aloof when it comes to these sorts of things, honestly, especially from Soft when it comes to their own tech, that I'm just going to go into this with the assumption that elder Ring is going to be dog shit doodoo on the switch To.

And that's a shame.

Yeah, it's stupid.

It shouldn't be that way.

No, it shouldn't be that way, and it's weird for you know, if I was Nintendo, I would have been very concerned about making sure Ellen really looked as good as possible on Switchshoe.

So you know, either they weren't, maybe they were, and they still couldn't do much.

And that's just kind of an indictment of the possibilities on Switch Shoe.

I mean, look, that's a very it is a very big game and all this other stuff.

In some ways, that makes sense why a Found fifty seven remake, which you know was originally a PlayStation four game and it's a more linear thing and blah, blah blah, why that would run better.

But you know, I don't want to hear that elden Ring is not going to look that great on the Switch to that game is already a few years old and whatnot, because those are kind of games I want to see more of on there going forward.

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

I think for elden Rings specifically, it's going to be the kind of thing where it just feels weird in this moment because these are two companies that are working together, right from Soft and Nintendo are making a game together, or at the very least, Nintendo did the effort, made the effort to get from Soft to make an exclusive for the Switch to, something that does not happen very frequently anymore and is now happening with Nintendo and with the biggest third party developer that you can get making an exclusive.

So you just think that they would.

Be conversing and making hey are you up to date on the switch to?

Are you good on this?

Now?

Who's more at fault on this?

I do actually probably lean towards from because they just don't give a shit if their games run fine.

They never have.

But you know, still I don't think Nintendo's picking up the phone and actually making those calls either, and that's again very frustrating.

From the town to the company that gave us Pokemon, Scarlet and Violet right exactly, Yes, involved in that.

Yep, it's plenty of blame to go around here if this comes out in the state that it's in.

All right, it's sort of weird noise.

I think there's a motorcycle or something outside.

It was rating.

They didn't like, oh spration, Yeah, those low rumbles.

I hate that.

I was That was when I was recording that mail bag that will go up for Patreon members.

These cars would just drive by and they had their like mufflers taking off their car.

So it's just super loud.

Man.

Do you just like everyone thinking you're a dick and it is weird?

Yeah?

All right, last thing here on, So Tara test Acclaim is back.

They're going to talk about I guess some surprises and announcements and whatnot.

Jeff, we were trying to figure out the bumpk us, what the heck this could possibly mean.

Acclaim as a company did a lot of license games and there are few original things were stuff like tar Rock that's already spoken for or stuff that people have known nostalgia for Whatso even Tarrok technically is a license game that was a comic book, right, So yeah, they're gonna be kind of funny.

I guess they're gonna get Jeff Jarrett, who is involved in the new acclaim somehow just very very interesting.

Yeah, it's weird.

I mean I think we could probably parse out what this is.

It is, you know what people always uh, I mean what Attari has been in the past, which is, hey, we have this name that does mean.

Something, and how much does acclaim actually mean?

We can debate it doesn't mean a lot, but you know, we have this name that people recognize, and we're just going to take that and do probably new stuff because we can't do the old stuff.

So the new stuff's going to be publish indie games.

I hope that because what's that Christian.

Claim a hotels?

Let's cool, Yes, I claim hotels.

Yes, there we go.

That'll be amazing.

And I just think that, like people are not going to actually care all that much just because it says a claim on it.

But that's the hope, and good luck to them.

I guess a lot of it will depend on do you have a strong sort of voice for these games, because you know, the Devolver Digitals of the world.

When they have a new game, people do perk up at least a little bit because they're like, hey, Devolver Digital knows how to pick them and they have a certain quality to their games that makes me want to see, like what they're going to do next, because I know that they have a strong voice, and a claim will have to sort of come out of the gate swinging to establish that.

And well, you know, who am I to say that Jeff Eric doesn't have the juice When it comes to that, we'll find.

Out who knows?

Who knows?

I tell you what, I'm curious.

I'm curious to see what it could possibly be.

These acclaim announcements.

Yeah, all right.

I always there was a claim Accolade and Activision and as a kid, which I always mixed them up in my head.

Sure, Accolade, Bubbsy that sounds right, yeah, Accollae.

It's definitely more of a sixteen bit.

Yes, they were not.

I don't remember them being around much during thirty two and six.

You should know, you're the bubsy guy.

Yeah, yeah, why why are you asking us?

Yes, they were bubbsy.

They're bubbsy.

Oh they did Star Control hard ball, sure, yeah, everyone's wild for hardball.

Yeah.

God, they were done by like ninety eight.

It looks like yeah, okay, man Jack Nicholas five Oh just Jack Nicholas golf.

I see, Oh they didn't be okay.

I play a lot of the Formula one, the Ferrari game they made for the Genesis.

I play the shit at that one for sure.

Oh.

They made a viral Mistress of the Dark game for Amiga and Commodore sixty four?

What the hell is this?

A first person dungeon crawler?

No first person shooter role playing game and pointy clicking game?

Is this a viral game?

Good?

Wait?

What is that?

Eighty four?

What is this?

Amazing looking?

Well received?

A viral Mistress of the Dark game?

Okay, let's uh do a new license to thrill and we'll play that.

We'll play we'll play some other stuff like that.

Yeah, what else is like that?

Is there like a Dave Letterman video game?

Other like late night TV show host games?

Yeah?

Oh a good, that's a good point.

I feel like, I mean, you played Blues.

Brother, that's kind of yeah, you're right, that's an SNL thing.

Is it just like spook yes, scary license thrill or you know spooky license Yeah, spooky yeah, spooky Halloween fun which is and stuff like that.

Okay, yeah, yeah, okay, So Fira King looks amazing.

I don't know that's crazy.

I've never even really heard of it.

Yeah, there's a Thaws version, so you get some thought, bocks go.

We should be able to just tell you.

All right, I'll get it going.

Okay, that's it for topics here right now, we're gonna take a little break.

We got the super chats to go through.

We got a mail bag to get to at some point here.

We'll be right back.

Everyone talk to earlier, but bye, and we are back.

Jeff, please, I'd love to hear about these super jets.

Sure.

Yeah, it's a new thing we're doing here where you give us money and we read what you say.

Like that includes what Tyler James Bass said here which Pokemon is most likely to be on the absolute list?

Isaac gum gum shoes.

It's fister Mime, right, so do we even do it here?

Mister Mime is just just looks a lot like Trump.

Actually, if you really think about it a little bit.

Yeah, okay, yeah, trubbage would be is it trubbage?

Is that that's nasty?

Yeah?

I think you're right.

I think I just baited grubbage.

I'm sorry, I know I did.

I like it.

I want that fan art right away.

Uh, Manate's Fruit and Porium rights in here.

At Manate's Fruit and Porium, we sell only the wettest, juiciest fruits available.

So I'm sorry the cats literally in the way because she keeps attacking Mike's face.

So come on down to Manti's Fruit and Porium, where our motto is, if you can find wetter fruit, squeeze it apple.

What the fuck is this?

Oh my gosh, cat's scared.

Yeah, okay, come get me cut go go.

Hm, I'm not afraid of you.

You should be all right.

Postman Dan eighty seven with a big old fifty dollars super chat, Thank you so much.

The new letter carrier contract finally dropped, so I got some dash happy for you.

I'm happy to hear that.

Thanks for you, guys.

Do here at GB Also, I ordered a Glorbo shirt months ago and they still haven't printed it and they have never responded to my email about it.

What do I do.

Oh that sucks.

I will see what I can do.

That's very strange.

I need to find a new T.

Shirt printing service, is what I've decided based on what you just wrote right here.

I'll see what we can do.

Glorbo was like a weird World of Warcraft reddit meme, and I turned that into a shirt over right.

I was like, God, I vaguely remember the whole Glorybo thing.

Yeah, yeah, so that was gonna be my way.

Yeah, totally yes.

Someone like, hey, Glorbo's coming to World of Warcraft, and a bunch of like AI website writers made stories about.

It that was very funny.

So funny.

Uh.

Simon from Saskatchewan says, I could see Rascal Mike singing big fat meat balls fair.

I could too, made with pork villain beef.

There you go.

Simon from Saskatchewan is back for a couple more here.

When are we going to see Jeff's one running of bubbsy three D.

I remember remember him saying if he was if it was ever remaster remade, he'd collect all the ship pieces.

Mike.

My initial instinct would be like, yeah, what the hell, Jeff, you havet the ones percent blah blah blah, And then I was like, do I want to watch Jeff play that much more?

Bubbsy three D?

I mean you also have to listen to it, like you like you're going to hear that music for forever.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm probably going to resurfle those audios he he made, he recorded, he.

Made, That's right?

Yeah yeah, the bubbsy uh double voice actor, double voices, gonna go inside.

All right, let's see here, Simon says again here, I'm wondering why Mike didn't use the rewind feature when playing Mortal Kombat Anthology on Blake Club.

Didn't you you know you could do that?

Always read the manuals Mike, Why?

And I think you're joking.

But two, even if there was, I feel like there's absolutely zero chance I would have been allowed to use it.

I don't know when rewind was an inventive for video games, but there's no way it was for Mortal Kombat Mythology.

Yeah, a CD ROM game you have to load shit in no way?

I think, Yes, I think this is joking us, Simon.

With their four of four here.

I remember, I remember there was an old idea of Baccolar playing a modded version of Shallon Monks where he plays as Baraka and he dresses as him Jeff Baraka.

Lar I like saying that it's very good.

I would like that.

That'd be fun.

That'd be fun, all right, Lex lutties here Lex Hello.

Hell Razor game features extensive man dong peebus.

Yeah, it's a that's right where we were plotting that Hell Raisers a game about sexual horrors, so you gotta a you're gonna have to have that stuff in there, for sure.

I feel like we're seeing a lot more penises and vitigans for a bit there, all right.

It's like Cyberpunk and Boulterskate just had dongs over the place, and we've retreated a little bit.

There's been fewer penises lately.

The penises are shriveling away absolutely, and that we can't have that.

I remember like listening to podcasts in the late two thousand's, early twenty tens or whatever, and it was like, what's going to be the first game to have a penis in it?

Like what's going to be the first game to show And it was like a conversation like it's going to be grand theft auto, right, did I did like one of the Grand Theft Auto games or one of the DLCs have full frontal male nudity.

Was it?

Was it the ballot of Ballad of DAYTONI yeah, probably right.

I think that was the name.

That sounds right, one of those the first I mean, look, I saw Custard's penis and that Atari game or whatever's right?

You know what that's true?

Yeah, yeah, I'll see what the big deal is.

All right, let's see here Manhatti's fruit and for him is back.

So what did you turned?

What if you turned to GM game Mess Jeopardy into Giant Bomb Jeopardy.

Sean Hostwell one member of Giant Bomb and two friends Extend Slash, Extended Family, Giant Bomb Family Compete.

Just wanted a reason to give you more money Banana.

Yeah, Sean wants to bring back Jeopardy, and I want to do it with Sean on so we could maybe do some crossover stuff that would make a lot of sense and I think would be a lot of fun.

But really he's busy, so it might take a minute.

Still, Zombie Porn says what steps need to be taken to make a war of the World's whole for Extra life and how do we get bakulahr in there?

Grub can go in the sauna thing again?

Oh I don't need to go back into the sauna.

God, I would I'd like to.

I would like a war of the world's whole, which is why I probably won't happen.

I still don't believe how many people whenever we talk to it, like, no, that movie is just bad bad.

It wasn't even funny bad.

Oh my gosh, I either.

I have so much joy from it me too.

I would like to hear those people if they're like, what is their list of movies that are so bad?

They're good?

And if they don't have any, then I'm like, okay, then you have a differential position.

That's just not the way you enjoy movies.

That's fine, but you have other examples.

I just would like to hear what that is you do.

So sorry, I had to just make this at this point because I'm a I'm a little box freak, and you reveal a little books is a fucking crime.

Brother.

You can't give that that shit five stars, that it's five stars.

I had a five stars.

One time, and the like, sorry, you just made the last boss of this shies, so I don't even try it.

In the start?

What are you talking about?

I had five It was one of the best movie experiences I've ever had five stars.

That's so what am I supposed to rank it based on?

Like what I think other people might think?

No, how I feel, Christian, it's my letter boxed.

That's insane.

Zombie pore and over here to Michael R.

O'Leary, who says, can't believe Mike's view was one that was the one that made K Pop Demon Hunters the most watched movie on Netflix ever.

Good thing he has no issues with it.

They must be making so much money because that's one movie I had to buy a month of Netflix, and who knows what I'm gonna remember to cancel that subscription, right like this one movie they made it probably doing suddenly a super well because they also had Happy Gilmore Too was a big hit for a Netflix and now this high times for Netflix all of a sudden, Yeah, and it's uh.

They put it out in theaters and it was the number one movie in theaters even though had people had been able to watch it on Netflix for weeks, So yeah, that is.

And also they're going to make fifteen more of these.

So yeah, already greeluded a live action, which is why why you.

Didn't make them?

Stupid sod, that's just what you do.

But what you Yeah, boy, everything that's fun about the movies because it's animated.

Huh uh huh, all right, so sure, why not?

Gwinn the Hunter writes in Team Cherry reaches out to you and says they want to make spoon Heaven a real game.

What does the ideal spoon Heaven game look like?

Spenus, You click on the executable for spoon HEABN and it just elites Silk Song from your computer and that's all.

It is.

One of the few times AJ ever hit me was this was like years beforeteen four Just two came out, and it was like when we still thought it was going to look like a realistic military so everything, and I found a a prank dot ex that made it look like it opened up like Windows of Sport and slowly deleted everything on your computer like that loaded it put his tiptop and they did like Team Fortress two demo and told I'm like, oh my god, ma surprise.

He started watching it and like it looks like Lee's forget I was just laughing me.

He gave me one on the shoulder and I was still so I just kept laughing away.

Ah God, I got him good.

That's a good prank.

Mike Guts.

I like that one a lot.

Uh.

All right, Chris Pratt is here.

Everybody says, tell me grub Hub Mario Arkid coming in the direct.

It's already out.

Look.

I've been nice, but you've been You've been getting a little one hunch there, Christ.

Time, and it's just I don't think he's going to get it.

Brother.

I think this is it, Chris.

He's got a one track mind and it's not going to ever learn.

Uh.

So, yes, Chris, get your hopes up for sure.

Cronos ten man and says, we see Nintendo collaborating with so many companies like Lego or CROs.

Do you think they'll start collaborating collaborating with those companies in their games like Animal Crossing.

I bet that's a bridge they don't want to.

Even when it's like something like Animal Crossing we're actually including fashion brands could make some sense.

I think they actually still don't want to cross that bridge.

I'm kind of happy about that personally.

Oh yeah, for sure, don't.

I don't want this stuff in those games.

It is a privilege for crocs to get to make Nintendo stuff, is how Nintendo used it.

Yeah, exactly.

It would be an extreme privilege for crocs to get to put their shit in a Nintendo game, and Nintendo's like how much you paying us?

And they also are like, we are also not going to take your money because we don't want it or need it.

We're going to make our games our way.

Yeah, this is very very leach.

Some people even might say that it will be a blemish on the Nintendo's reputation to crouch set on their games.

Sure.

I mean I could see them doing a little bit with Lego in a game like that's not like Lego stuff popping up in a Smash Brothers game or something like that.

I could see that, but I don't be on that.

I don't know.

David Laddou says Abby Doobie.

I don't know what this is a reference to, Abby.

Look, I try to look this up, and it's some kind of Bluetooth pass through adapter is a it's a device that wait, I don't know, never mind, I don't know what that it is.

This might not be right, it'd be it's just silly words.

Yeah, it's probably just silly words.

Thank you so much, David.

Is this mbretty Jeopardy reference?

Because that's great if it's true.

Jacob Bench says Mike, are you interested in Trails in the Sky remake?

Previews were glowing.

It's looking fantastic and out next month.

A demo is also out.

Yeah, it's like I feel like I should be.

I loved Trails in the Sky.

There's a part it's like, Okay, do I need to play that game again?

Even already I kind of liked that it was sort of old school pixel look and stuff.

So like, the new game looks good.

This is just a me thing.

I did not like some of the voice acting I heard on the trailers or whatnot.

I probably would get over that pretty quickly.

I'm mostly just glad that more people are going to play this game.

I definitely should check it out to get an opinion on it, tell people what I think about the remake on the podcasts and videos and everything like that.

So yeah, I guess I'm interested.

Is this the thing I'm going to be devoting a lot of my time playing through again?

With so much stuff coming out.

We'll see, but yeah, I'm optimistic at this point.

All right, let's see here from sez L.

Sez Ol says, speaking of Mortal Kombat Mythologies, is Manati going to go for the world record on the Legacy Collection version?

If there is a leaderboard it might be kind of Oh, that would be fun if there was an English to get on there.

I do have to kind of remember a bit what's going on.

I actually was thinking about how this impacts the be running scene.

If it's if they're going to allow time set on this version of the games, is going to have something like faster lows is going to be its own category all that stuff.

Yeah, I hope it sparks interest.

I wonder if anybody has done a speed run of Mythologies in a bit.

I think last I checked, one other person was on the leaderboards sin Side was, which means there's still only eleven names there and I'm still number five.

I like to see an influx of that with this.

Yeah, I think that would be I think there's a chance that the scene gets seriously upgraded from this.

But I'll told you it's a fun say.

I thought it was a really fun speed run I had a lot of it was doing.

It was a good watch for sure, Alright from Postman Dan again this week.

I've also been very sick, so I've been clearing out my twenty twenty five list.

Expedition thirty three and Rage Bound both done.

Then I decided to fight Simon five days later and I'm still on it.

Best Superboss ever man.

I did wish Doug.

I wish I did play more Bound before Shnoby came out, But I definitely want to go back to what I'm finished with.

Uh with Shnobi now, I do like a good Superbus though.

Yeah, I would like to go back and do some more of the hard stuff in Ninja Gaidam, But I don't know.

When I'm trying to think what my favorite super buss is.

I would definitely consider Sands one of those from Undertail, and I really like that fight a ton.

It to be at least a couple of days to finally get that one done.

Symbiosis dot MP three writes, I would pay a lot for someone to watch me watch you play the play that Alvira game.

I know you just stumbled there, but it sounded like you were saying this person would pay somebody to watch them watch us.

Like that's how that's how it's written, someone to watch me watch you.

Maybe they miswrote it or something like that.

You did, just read it as it is, right bad?

Yeah no, I mean I also stumbled on because I was like confused, But that's what it says.

I pay a lot for someone to watch me watch you play that Alvira game.

I would pay a viral a lot watch me watch you play her game.

Hey, I've been just looking on this game on GG now and this game looks awesome.

I don't know, I really really really.

Yeah, well we will make an excuse to do this postman Dan wraps it up for us for now.

I also tried out a terrible game Boy Advanced Gumby game.

I fell through the floor in the first thirty seconds of the first level.

You know that happened to be with the space adventure Cobra game.

So yeah, it's it's incredible just how much licensed shlock there is on the Game Boy Advance like it was the heyday.

Yeah, it's like so much of it that went from being a bad thing for the system to sem up being an endearing thing about any right, So it's not like it was like replacing the good games.

There were still plenty of good games, and then it's like you could look left or right and just see fifty license pieces of shit.

And I don't know, I bet, I bet there's actually quite a few good hidden gyms that people are still kind of discovering.

Oh yeah, this one was better than I thought it was.

Yeah, good system.

I love the game Boy Advance.

Mike.

That does it for super chats.

All right, thank you so much everybody.

If you still want to send in a super chat, you can't do so before the end of show and we will read it.

Also.

Yeah, still just eleven people on that leader board for the PlayStation one version of Mythologies, and it is that PS one version that's going to be on the Clutch.

God, I can't not wait for that collection.

It's going to be so much fun.

Yeah.

I still take some joy going in there and seeing my placement on there.

Number five, I'll take that somehow.

I'm thirty four in Quackshot, which I did not even get that good at and I guess there's only forty six people in Quackshot, which surprises me.

Dan is better.

I mean, Dan record is the sixteenth best quack shot player in the world, and I respect that intensely about him.

Well well done, Dan, that's cool.

He really went hard on that.

That was great.

It's a good game.

Number one in original hard war, that's true.

I am number one original hardware for Mortar krombat My everyone else is not is emulating.

Uh, we'll let me go original hardware.

Yeah, so honestly, that means I am actually the best.

They're all cheating.

You're the only non cheater.

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

All right, won't be right back.

We've got a mail bag here to get to, so we're going to be hearing some more from our lovely listeners and patrons and so on.

I'm looking forward to it.

Stick around everyone, all right, we're back, Jeff, go attack a mailman a lot.

Imagine he uh smashed the can on you fakely and in fun.

No, don't do that.

I mean bark barker are biting teeth, teeth and gnashing.

All right, that's not fine enough.

Don't go Jack London novel.

I'm going for your entrails.

Thank you for not killing that melmnto intrails.

Intrails are spilling out, so I don't know if he's going to make it.

Yeah, that sounds like a dead yeah, well look tick it up with Jack London.

It's like the number one goal in life is to never see intrails right.

Yes, in any context, especially mine, but preferably nobody right right.

Preferly nobody's all right screaming at it says hello Jeff Ninja Grubbitt and Mike Shanati.

Recently, it beat you nob three on the Genesis NSL before art evens release and love my time with it.

I'm now ready for August twenty eighth, Hoten, do you to beat a pass entry in the Games franchise before playing it's new upcoming release?

That it's something I used to do a lot more of.

I've actually just thinking about that because before about your Solid four came out, I was so excited back then that I did just replay one, two and three.

I think they released a kind of trilogy bundle that I still have of those games, and it was just the original discs, but in like a nice kind of collection.

It was like the PS one discs for one, and then Substance and Subsistence for two and three.

You know, there will still be a little bit of that here and there.

In fact, when Monkey Island five came returned Monkeyallen and it was early days for streaming for me, I did play through Monkey Allen's one through five four again actually leading up to that.

So yeah, every once in a while I will do that.

Yeah, I'll do this occasionally.

I'm usually not going to go back to like let's go complete the most previous entry in this series.

It'll be like, oh, let's go play some of these older games from this franchise before game is gonna come out, But not too frequently these days, let's say like make a stream of it just because I'm so busy.

So this is what it was for you if you're looking at this Mulgar saw it as the essential collection and even has like it's me because the metal gear solid one thing.

It's it's a PS one but it's kind of in a PS two style case and it's got this artwork on it.

Yeah, this is These are still my favorite versions of these games.

I will take this over you in the HD stuff.

I can't just play it on original hardware, super neatol.

Alright.

Next up is from beef Hammer well FORTHO of My Dogs.

What do you think those hack frauds over a Giant Bomb.

Why do you think those hack frogs frauds over at Giant Bomb refuse to play or make a video about Rogue Prints of Persia out even though they gave Lost Crown Goady last year.

So I'm glad to be here at Gamis where you two will definitely play it, like all the hypocrites over at Giant Bomb.

Michael played on megn or something.

It's fantastic.

Yeah, you know.

Part of my problem is that I played it when it like first came out in early access, so pardon me is kind of like that's a game I played before.

But yeah, it is fully out now gone pretty good reviews.

I should check it out again.

Yeah, I should check it out.

I definitely meant to an early access and never got around to it.

Mostly it was because I had just played a really good Prince of Persia game and I wasn't there quite in the mood for this.

But I do like it was a Twin Helix.

I can't remember the name of the studio that Motion Twin or something like that that is doing this.

They previously worked on Dead Cells.

They did like all the DLC for Dead Cells a different team made the original game, and so it's like, yeah, I love those people.

Let's go see what this is.

This is up all about.

So yeah, we'll see.

Yeah.

I think timing is a little weird because when it first came out early access, it was not that long after The Lost Crown, And now that it's fully out, it's like, we have a lot of other really good two D action games right now, and you know they're not road Lakes like this, but they're still scratching that two D action hitch pretty well at the moment.

Yep, I'll check this out, though, I'll throw it on the steam that can, just have it there.

Chris Brat says, how far would you be willing to delay Metroid Prime four to get the Lions Browns to win the Super Bowl this year?

Oh?

I think we're gonna get very interesting questions.

I'm so disinterested in the Browns right now that I would rather just play Metrod Prime for sooner than see them winn.

I feel like I shouldn't have to make this deal.

The Lions are good enough to win.

But yeah, look, I would delay it till next holiday if I guarantee the Lions we're going to win the super Bowl and.

Put name here, says Alarmo.

Check in.

Also, which bonanza alarm would you play if they were added?

Yeah, I actually tried to stop using Alarmo, and it was a big mistake.

It made my life worse than I'm just back on Alarmo.

I like a lot.

I am upset that we haven't been getting new themes recently because the banana theme set would be nice.

Yeah, you know, obviously I would wake up to Zebra.

That would be an incredible you know, I could just set that up.

I could just make my Google do that in the morning.

Yeah, but that's not as fun as Alarmo.

You're right back.

Alarmo's also a good good idea.

We could just send him just endless Alarmos and just plug him and have Stacey plug him in all over his house or something.

I would like that quite a bit.

That would be great.

Benji Bop asked, did Taylor Swift change her wedding date because of Hollow Night's silk song?

I'll hang up and was like, what do you think the odds are that Taylor Swift knows what Hollow Night is?

It's not zero right, because she's like of an age and has friends that like probably do play some game.

They probably like There's probably a lot of people around her, especially when she's touring, who play a lot of Switch, And I think that means that there's like a fifteen percent chance, which I think is pretty good, that she knows what Hollow Night.

Is actually definitely knows what Animal Crossing is very late, Yes, right, yes, definitely.

Next up is from Always Be Clothing.

How much do we have to bleep beck al Art to get you all to do a Disney c travel vlog?

I mean we went to Japan, we would go to this part of it?

Yeah, it would.

It's just, you know, we've been talking about how much when we go to Japan forever.

It's it's hard.

It's hard to schedule things, man, and figure out when you're going to do this.

It's a much easier to talk about doing things.

You know that part actually seeing free Figuring out the logistics of any of this stuff is hard and annoying, and I don't.

Like it, James Spy says.

Mario Strikers, Battle League, Mario Tennis Aces, and Mario Golf Super Rust were all released on the original Switch.

Does this mean it's high time we get a Mario Baseball and switch to the last roal entry was Super Sluckers on the WIE unless you count Mario Supports Superstars and the Three DS, which I don't.

I sure hope so, because yeah, you know, it was likeice to get Mario Striker's back.

I don't know if we need another Mario Strikers even on the switch to It's kind even how many.

Other sports games, like do you think we do?

You think they can do a Mario Golf, another new Mario Golf game, or another new Mario Tennis game before they start doing some of these other ones like baseball.

I don't they could.

Tennis and golf are just ones that every single Nintendo cons so I think has had one of those.

We you might have been weird to fit short life cycle.

I'm not sure, but generally they all get one of those, so maybe, but I sure would like to get baseball before that.

Yeah, I think they should do baseball, and I think show Hey Otani will be a big reason why they actually.

Probably do end up doing a baseball games time.

Yeah, you know, instead of like soccer, do hockey, right, and I've been a little bit different.

That'd be super fun.

Yep, that'd be great.

Jerem says game mess last Giant Bomb tank Tops a win.

Yeah, I shoul look at that.

I know I don't think about tank tops because I'm just not tank top person.

But I shouldn't let that impact other people.

So yeah, I'll try to remember that.

Here, we'll get some designed up maybe for nixt spring Blas and Noah says, I just beat one waker on the switch to and so the game controller.

Is that sea button the closest thing to a nipple in gaming?

Or what?

Boys?

Then the nipple on the three DS New three DS, that's a.

Nipple, yeah, but it doesn't have an ariola like this.

See the whole three DS is an ariola if you believe.

I don't know, I think I might agree that the sea stick is the most I'll tell you what.

Touching like this, I feel a little naughty.

Yeah, Mike Minatti, Okay, that's he thanks a lot, blazing, Noah appreciate this.

Questions sound thank you.

Chris two Case says, you know what, Mike is right and so rules.

Right before Bonanza release, I had to fight from Spain to Canada, and during that I played through almost the entirety Mario Land four Good Name.

I also played it on NSL now Chipping Away a Golden Sun.

I put that on NSL while waiting for the Curby delC and Silk song.

Don't you think the drip feeding makes NFL releases more special?

It feels like a little event every time there's a new drop, it's an exciting game.

A lot of people actually play and talk about it for a few days.

It's less overwhelming, and they can still make new exciting distions to the Calgog even years in him just being a town Fanbay.

But I think it makes sense to love you.

Yeah, there's a bit to it.

I wish it was a slightly faster drip beat.

And the issue is, you know it, It'd be one thing if it was, oh, we get one game, two game a month, but it's like we get a one game two game a month and not much else from the other systems, Like one other system will maybe get a release in between.

Then.

So yeah, I hear you a little bit.

I think just a little bit more would be fine.

It would still feel special enough.

Yeah.

I mean there's a whole song about how special we Shop Wednesday was, and that was new games that you could buy individually on the Wii Shop, like drops once per week, new games once per week.

I don't know if it has to be that frequent, but I would like like a regular Hey, on this day of each month, we will for sure have some new games for NSL and maybe for multiple platforms that would be That would be the I think the ideal sort of balance here.

Oh yeah, and ten Derek says, what are some order games we'll say fifteen years old or older that you'd like to see Sony in our Microsoft's free visit and bring to the switch.

I mean, Sony Show when million percent just make a new ape Escape.

We've got ap Escape stuff in Astrobot and now in Metal Gear Delta, and it's like, boy, this sure is fun.

Sure like a whole game of this.

Yep, Yeah, that was Yeah.

Honestly, a lot of their like a lot of their studios early stuff, like just start picking a couple of those here or there.

I mean obviously like Sly Cooper is something a lot of people will always point too.

I've not played that, but it seems cool to me.

I think that stuff would be neat.

I want to see stuff like Colony wars come back.

I want to see PS one like Bangers that were huge in that moment but have been completely forgotten.

I'd like to see that stuff come back.

Do another Warhawk.

I mean, it's time they've done that.

And every time they've done every time they've gone back to Warhawk or a star Hawk, it's been pretty good.

I do that again.

Say there's any world where we get the original Xbox as a console in Nso.

Yeah, there's a world where that happens for sure, but not anytime soon.

But yeah, give me my Crimson Skies finally, that would be my Microsoft answer.

By the way, Crimson s guys, of course, Yeah, I was.

I was gonna say it, but I'm like Mike's gonna say it, so I'll just let him do it.

Jay says, when is Dan going to be forced to play Sonic Boom for Blight Club?

Look, I'll just come out a little inside baseball before Trespasser.

I wanted to give you Sonic Boom.

Me want to give you it.

That was all.

That was the game that you were suggesting that he wanted.

I want you to be grub Coles was my idea.

Dan thinks.

Dan thinks Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric is not funny enough, and I'm not sure why, but when it's just him arguing, I get roadblocked, right.

So yeah, of course, yeah, so I got George.

I I just like I made it very clear that this round, I'm picking the games because it's been a minute.

So I'm just like, I'm picking the games.

That's what I'm saying now, And I think you'll get to do that next time.

But clearly we should give it to him.

Yeah, and now I'm gonna remind him you could have avoided this this They didn't have to be you.

And it's going to be very funny.

Like, it's going to be very funny.

So I'm looking forward to it.

I you cureous because somebody he's like, I don't think it looks a bad like really, I felt like it always looked horrendous, was my impression.

Yeah, atrocious even I uh yeah, I can't wait for him to get a taste of his own medicine there, Jim.

Jim says, hey dogs.

Following the Kirby Air Riders direct, I went again into Super Smash Brothers, Ultimate Guy tips or videos I should watch boy, I don't know about video is really but gosh tips.

The nice thing about Smashed All to Men is that, you know, there's so many different levels.

Uh, there's so many characters, just just the whole thing is designed to be relatively easy to get into.

So just get in there, pick a character you like, Maybe play that World of Light mode because it's kind of a little fun and it sort of you know, gets you, gets you in there.

But maybe just want to play some solo matches against CPU, and there's you know, different CPU levels you can set them to.

I think the d fault of five is fine, but you can lower that if you want to.

And yeah, just just just go in there, go to town, try it with items on, try it with at see what you prefer, all that stuff.

It's it's so customizable.

I uh yeah, And I'll just go start playing for like fun for now and then and then find a character you like and then go from there and then come bug bug mic and ask for tips at that point.

Yeah.

Absolutely, Like if you want to like know, like, you know, what are some good starter characters.

I mean, Mario is always good.

I think Kirby is a fun uh character.

To Plane is kind I feel safe because you have so many extra jumps, so recovery it's a lot easier there, Yes, for men.

Remember it's not a traditional fighting game.

It's not just about get decent at the idea of recovery.

I see so many people, like you don't play specs fer as much when they do get in there.

They just don't really grasp that idea of like, if you get thrown out the stage, you got to you know, double jump and then use your up and be special attack to help you get back on there or else you're gonna die.

Uh see, you gotta get a handle on that, Doisy says.

Is Metro Prime four the new Duke Nukem forever?

It was announced the same year Haul when I came out.

No, because we all know what happened metroch Prime four.

The game was announced pretty early with one developer and then they just they canceled that version of the game.

Is what happens, not like, oh they had to bring someone in to spruce it up.

They restarted with a new developer in retro yep, exactly.

Yeah, what would be the new Duke Nukem.

I don't know.

I feel like there's other games that been well, what is what is Star Citizen, Mike, what is Star Citizen?

What is burn?

Notice?

I don't know.

I mean it's can you play Star Citizen today?

I feel like you can, but I don't know what that means.

I mean it came out of early access in twenty seventeen, right, so yeah, exactly right?

All right?

I guess I want to eventually we should go check out Star Citizen again and see what it's doing in twenty twenty five.

Beyond Good and Evil too, I think is definitely that's modern forever because they won't say it doesn't exist, all right.

They all keep saying, yeah, we're still making that game, so it's not vaporware, even though it still seems less and less likely all the time.

Then you'll randomly get something weird like a Beyond Good and Evil remastered that includes added teases for the sequel, so it's very strange.

Next up here from the atire Wolf, what's up cool Dog and not cool Dog?

You decide which is which?

Growing trying to remix the classic games?

Is there any Intendo games you would love a remake of that's once the most likely to be remade soon?

I think games you wouldn't want to be remade for fear of the original's magic would be lost.

Yeah, I think I think all I said, I don't really want a Super Metroid remake, and yeah, yeah, I don't know.

I'm metric with like a Metroid drift.

No, I don't care.

No, keep keep it super mech right, don't remake h retrod.

My answer for this it has been the same for a while.

It's Zelda two.

I think you just modernized Zelda two.

Make it look shit hot, and you're good to go.

And I'm not talking like it doesn't have to be different gameplay style.

It could still be one of those games that's, you know, side scrolling, quasi RPG thing.

Just make it more understandable and kind of give it.

A little bit of a.

Extra animation, you know, and make it beautiful looking.

And I think you got yourself a hit.

I know this is often my answer for these kind of attendant questions, but it's it's Star Tropics.

I think you can make that game especially smooth into That game gets an intensive difficulty spike that's pretty annoying.

I think you smoothed that out.

It'd be pretty nice.

Just a way to reach it this gaming.

You'll finally release it in Japan.

Also, so you can stop acting like it doesn't exist.

That would be nice.

Fire here, says an Ubi Soft, as Ubisoft is selling off some older IP rights.

Do you think we could all chip into acquire Hayes?

How much could Hayes possibly cost?

It's it's a hey twenty dollars?

Yeah, right much?

Ban Nana God.

That would be a funny game to own.

Yeah, it's.

It is the kind of thing where it's like that would also be a funny thing for a giant bomb to own, Like we got Hayes.

Let's do a haze.

It's a one video game.

We got click li boom boom, we got uh huh exactly.

Yeah.

I don't know how much could it possibly be?

I don't know.

It is weird to see Atari acquiringly grow Homes, like okay, yeah, that's that feels like an idea there.

I definitely think about, like, hey, grow Home, that's cool.

I like that game.

Like, I guess I really have no idea.

But could Hayes possibly even cost one million dollars?

I don't think so, no, no, not to like why why would it it would be like like fifty thousand dollars?

I think because it's like you have to like do all the work to make a game at that point, and it's like you're actually digging yourself out of a reputational hole.

Uh yeah, and like so basically that would be you know, you'd beself getting money for nothing and that means fifty thousand dollars.

Maybe Next up is Leny Cool, Dick Denver, Hey, Mike Howny for coin Pushers, Manadi and Jeff.

War of the World is my Casablanca, and I refuse to elaborate.

Grub September is around the corner.

What games are you planning on playing for the rest of twenty twenty five?

You guys actually find time to play Yacaza zero or you both just line to Lex Penis.

I never I.

I always said, yeah, I'm going to play those after I finish my the from Games, which I'm not done with yet.

I'm gonna play a Demon Souls at some point here Before that, I want to finish Wish my twenty nineteen apology tour, which means Slay the Spires next, and then after that Disco Elysium, And you know, there's a lot of games I want to catch up on and make sure I play, I gotta.

I want to finish the two Ninja games, Shanobi and uh Ninja Guiden, and there's other twenty twenty five games I'm in the middle of that.

I still want to beat Metal Gear Solid Delta.

I even want to go back and make sure I finish Doom, the Dark Ages and Avowed.

But you know, there are some games coming out, like freaking Hollow Nights, Silk Song, so yeah, the Akiuza Zero probably not happening imminently.

Yeah, I I will get around to ya because zero at some point, but it's not Mike's right, it's not imminent.

And for like the rest of the year.

What I'm gonna it's, you know, I want to clean up Expedition.

I want to get that finished.

I want to play some Death Stranding too, and then from there it's like probably just going to be gay games that are yet to come out, so Metroid, Hollow Night, Silk Song, things like that.

October is busy, so it's gonna be it's going to be a busy Well that's carrd too.

It's like I kind of want to sure I finished as much as this as I can before act readers.

That's right, Dan's right.

The snake Eater is the other one that's like, yeah, I'm going to play a lot of snake eater.

Alian Michles says, hey, oh, boys, in the vein of spending like fifteen hundred or so at a convention, what would be your ideal spending budget?

Say if you went to Japan for two to seven weeks for gaming, Nick Nexon, who's who's it's to bring back home?

Will be your white whale thing to find?

So I've been around working life BS got me low, but doing all right.

Thanks for all your jobihill work then includes you to Sean and Christian all good, Elimericle, We're going to be here whenever you get back.

To us, and you no need to apologize.

Hope hope you're feeling higher these days.

And I don't mean you know, drug wise, Yeah, but you do what you gotta do.

He was see, Okay, So I'm gonna let's assume that, like sending a budget, needs to be somewhat realistic for our personal financial situations.

I think if I were to set money.

Aside and actually like think about it going to Japan, I probably would it would probably be a pretty decent sum Like fifteen hundred to twenty five hundred dollars set aside for cool stuff.

I would I don't know if I would spend that all, but I would want to like bring some stuff back, you know, like Dan went to the Nintendo Museum and all that bullshitt Nintendo Museum one of each police.

Yeah, that's that's where I'm at with that.

Yeah, I think sense right.

Somebody just did a lot of house clean on toongo.

Yeah.

It was almost despairing at how much useless knick knacks I already have as a party.

It's like, you know, a fridge magnet's nice.

Yeah that That has actually been my go to for years now is when I'll go somewhere, I'll get myself a fridge magnet and it doesn't even go on the upstairs fridge.

It goes on this little one down here.

Uh.

Yeah, I'm especially with the kids now, where their playroom is a nightmare.

There's so many like little pieces of toys that have become detached from other things, and so we got to just get rid of like eighty percent of the stuff before I can get you one new toy, Like let's be real here.

So yeah, you're right, JD.

Kip says, I imported a manual pushmore from Europe.

What is the most dad thing you've done recently?

That rule?

Send me pictures of that.

I want to see what that thing looks like.

Yeah, I think I only ever knew those existed because of Doug.

I think you just want to Doug once.

I'm like, what the hell is that?

Yeah, it's like I always like, my god, how well can that possibly work?

But I'm sure it's like, actually, functions just fine.

It just maybe requires a lot of effort.

That's a pretty dad thing.

What's the most bad thing you've done recently?

I don't know.

I mean I read a book about divers and stuff like deep sea diving into shipwrecks and stuff like that, and I just found myself nodding along a lot while reading that book.

So, yeah, that kind of shit.

I accidentally went to a Jimmy Buffett tribute band concert.

Yeah that's pretty damn Yeah, that's a bad thing to do.

I just stumbled into a trip.

You pick.

Duncer got very excited about if you have the.

Dad energy on, that'll just happen to you.

What happened to you?

It just happened next up is j La Naps that says, is this thing on.

I'm proud of you too, Thank you so much, Jail, I'm proud of you too.

Yeah, I'm proud of this whole thing.

Thanks jal and A Naps.

Chalk Fool says, I just went back to my childhood home and brought back my Sega Saturn.

Mike is the only person I know that owned to Saturn.

Did you ever play the gem Clockwork Night?

The opening cut scene fels straight out of Katamary Domici.

Also, I can believe forgot the system had a feature where you could just play a game soundtrack from the console's main menu.

This is a cool feature that I'm sad to see go away.

What retro console feature do you want to see make a comeback?

Yes, I played Clockwork Night.

I had that in its sequel.

They're great in fact Clockwork Night too.

I think it's the first time I ever beat a game before or my older brother AJ and I thought.

I was like really proud of myself for that.

I was like, this is a big deal Clark when I was a super neat two point five D game.

I wonder if it holds up.

It's been a while I'd like to go back to it.

Yeah, the opening cut scene is great.

It is like Katamari Domici mixed with toy Story because the whole thing is about these toys magically coming to life.

It might have even predated toy Sorios right around there.

Uh in terms of cool feature that I'm said to see go from an old console, VM, you does that count because boyd, I like to account you that's good.

I mean street Pass.

I think it's the one that comes to mind for me.

Yeah, street Pass was fun.

I mean just you know, like other stuff to do with your handheld other than just play the game.

There or a reason to like carry it with you other than I want to play this game.

Yeah, that was that was neat for sure.

Vm mused a good answer, though it might is Saturn the one that had always had the bum.

Drives the CD drives that go out?

Or was that Dreamcast?

Huh?

I'm actually do sure.

Does your dreamcast work?

My dream Cast does work?

I think something this is always a problem with the Saturn.

I think it's a little bit of a problem with the drink Cast.

The internal battery that runs the clock dies, So that's something you can just change and often have to with these things, which does mean you kind of like lose a lot of that internal I forget if it backs world, if it's a problem with the memory as well.

Maybe I think it definitely will reset your clock, your internal clock.

Yeah, so yeah, because I think, yeah, right now, my Dreamcast clock is definitely broken.

I haven't plugged my satnd in for a while.

I have.

I did replace it not that long ago, but I bet when I plug it in again, that will be another issue with it.

Okay, yeah, why do I have to get my Saturn Dreamcasts ready here soon?

Oh?

Yes, you have to get your Saturn dream Cast ready.

Yes, the Sega Saturn Dreamcast.

Yes, Saturn or dream Cast.

I spoke too fast.

Johnny Boyce says monoculture is dead, so I need the boys to tell me, or the dogs that told me.

The game movie and song of the Summer.

I mean movie is the easiest.

I feel like Cape Off Demon Hunters was absolutely the movie of the time, so it will take this song as well.

Going to say word of the World, Yeah, the world?

Oh my god, Okay, look not everything's a goof I think it actually is Cape Team.

Oh it's K pop Demon Hunters for sure.

Yes, yeah, dance's weapons.

I haven't seen weapons, but I'm getting.

Hand to watch weapons so bad.

Yeah.

I think Bonanza is the game of the summer.

Yeah, yeah, Expedition was actually came out like what uh winter or spring.

It's been out for a little.

Bonanza is dominated the summer for sure.

Nance is the game of the summer.

Song big Fat Meatballs, Big Fat meat Balls or just one of the songs from K pop.

Yeah, probably, Yeah, that's the goldland that's song being on the top ten bill or charts for the scenes it came out, so.

Yeah, it's been very popular on radio.

I wonder how long and two we get a u k peop Demon Hunter's game.

If this was like fifteen years ago, Platinum would be making it right now.

Yeah, you're right, yeah, Cape.

It would probably be the the B team at Platinum.

It would probably suck, but yes, yeah, it would make.

It's that team that made that turtle nobody likes.

Yeah, was Transformers them and was that good?

Bad or in between?

That was good?

Yeah?

It was all like g one designs and it looks sick as hell.

Gosh, I wish there was.

I don't think there's an easy way to play that now.

I wish there was because I'd be super into it.

Yeah, but maybe maybe could throw that into a license to throw along with Oh yeah right, I'm not sure how you go about playing that one.

Now, I'll figure it out.

I really would like to.

I really would like to.

Yeah, for games like that, there's there's gonna be a way on the internet to get that all.

Figure it out for sure.

All Right, Well that's it for now.

Thank you so much everyone for contributing to the mail bag.

We'll be right back.

We're gonna wrap things up.

Talk about any and tongueives have been playing, see if there's any more super chats and all that jazz br beery one.

All right, where back, Jeff, have you been playing any Nintendo games recently?

Yeah, the switch to version of Hitman got an update last night when I was like checking out some other stuff and so I was like, you know, let me look in on this.

And I think what they added in terms of visuals is an option to lock the frame rate at thirty frames per second or to unlock it, which I think also suggest that maybe they try to make some improvements, And I do think it's it's slightly improved.

Now some of the levels I had been playing already seemed to be running better than like the opening levels for whatever reason.

But yeah, I'm continuing to play that, and that game ends up running just fine on the switch to and I'm enjoying playing that on there.

I still have not found a code to get the Luigi suits so I can kill CEOs as Luigi, but I'm working on it still, I'll figure something out.

And then I played a space adventure.

Cobra talked about this on the BombCast.

It's that retro anime game where it takes the actual scenes from the retro anime and that's those are the cut scenes, and then the levels kind of filling the gaps between these scenes and those anime snippets.

Those clips are fantastic.

It looks so cool.

Eighties anime just absolutely pops off the screen.

Still, it looks incredible and it's awesome just to see that in a video game.

And then the gameplay has some shining parts to it, but it's mostly pretty rough in terms of just quality.

It's put together in a shoddy way, so there's a lot of bugs.

And then the movement of the character feels super cheap, but then you know, you do like the super arm weapon and you can freeze the screen and you kind of kind of draw your bullet across the screen.

You draw them over.

Each enemy, and then when you.

Hit four or more, it goes to a cool little thing of like the anime character popping on the screen, and that's neat.

This is a Switch two game that I'm playing, or it may just be Switched one.

Playing on switch To, it's just going to be hard to recommend, even though I think it's a really cool thing, because it's the game itself just doesn't hold up too bad.

Too bad.

Yeah, I've actually been continuing to play a lot of Street Fighter six on I switched to that game.

I saw you booting this up last night, and I almost hopped on to play a match with you or something because that it was great on switch To.

It's fantastic, and you know, so I was actually doing it while I was waiting for updates.

That happened to my rag ally X, which is definitely the worst thing about that machine, which I do like a lot.

But if you haven't like used it in a few months, you open up, it's like all right, time to spend an hour or two installing updates to windows or the bios and then to this and that and all that stuff my Asus app or whatever you a right exactly try to get what's that?

No, No, I've actually just been kind of learning zangief t were fun and and you know, I was doing that off.

I was doing a lot of just like arcade runs.

But I actually decided to do placements and ranked and even on Wi Fi on my switched to in bed.

That was a good experience.

It went better than I thought.

I got placed into gold, which felt decent for me.

Like I you know, I'm very consistent at getting the uh you know, full motion, full circle rab move now, and I'm learning all the good pokes and pd iven SPD that's what that's called.

I mean, I'm good at the SPD now.

I don't like Zinki is actually very satisfying.

Care I like.

I just like the idea that's not as combo heavy as some other characters.

I think it's more interesting to me than doing thoughtful pokes and you know, more cerebral stuff.

You're gonna put the fear of good on them, then you're either going to strike down or throw them.

Yeah, So you pay an WiFi.

Ho does he feel?

On the on the it felt fine, It felt actually really good.

I think I had one match with like a little lag at one point, but otherwise it seemed to work, just completely completely normal.

Yeah, it was a great experience.

It is.

It is a social Do you say social, it's not it's not nice.

She was saying, she let you know people's gonna give you shit.

Yeah, I mean there's not too many ways they can't give you say yeah, yeah, I'm in bed, and just from going to people some sh they will try to tell you that you suck.

That's what in three fast sics.

That's all right, they can have fun.

Again.

If I was doing it and the matches were bad, I feel bad.

But they don't seem to be working uh pretty well, right right, Hey it's threet five or six.

It's still a really fun game.

Oh you can get quite a bit.

Do you know that you can do the SPD on any historian in any direction?

Yeah, so that's what I finally learned.

So that's why I started on rights or you know, left facing them, and you don't have to kind of finish it so you don't have to do the full move so right.

You know, basically, I think I've watched a YouTuber explain how to do it without accidentally making yourself jump.

Every time, I'm like, oh, this works, now, this is fun.

I play on I am play on level less, and the way I do the the SPDs forward back, up, punch because the condition to do the SPD is on a three sixty issues every cardinal direction, so you can do it.

You can be yeah, you can be like walking for and back or like just tapping back and forward and then down, up and punch and you get the SPD.

So it's kind of early on.

It's pretty good.

That's why grapplers are pretty good on Street Fighter on Leverless.

Yeah, give me my army please, I know to get Alex.

Here is Mika confirmed?

Now we're getting We're getting Alex and Street Fighter three, so that's prappler, so I will be excited for that, but yeah, I still want It's kind of funny.

It's kind of funny because Armika was og roaster on three Fighter five and then the first character that the release was Alex and he kind of sucks.

So we're gonna see if they ever released Mika and either she's good or bad against Alex more seasons, So you.

Think we get of characters for straight fighters or third right now?

Is that we get four seasons?

Five seasons probably one more for sure, maybe five, and then they're gonna do like a Ultra street Fighter six or like Super three fight Er sixt something like that.

Cut up to keep it.

This part of me, it's like, man, I don't even necessarily know what I would want from a streight Fighter seven right now?

Six does just feel so good.

I mean I almost hope that.

Yeah, I kind of hope that they do do things like let's make another dog suckers or something else instead of that.

They could do that while like they let Super street Fighter six do its things.

So yeah, right, that would be ideal.

But yeah, that's that been.

That's been the big thing for me on there.

Jeff.

I think we have a few more super chats and then we can start getting out of here.

Yeah.

I think that's right.

We got quite a few more here.

Let me see.

Yeah, I think we got this one from the Dubious Food, who says, what is going on with Nintendo's online layer connection is so bad it has me worried for everything with an online component right now.

Not good.

This feels like your milead will vary because I have not had too many issues.

Yeah, I just say, you know, I had the experience as a Street Fighters six at least.

My Shoes is more just the setup of the game itself, like how it stupid drag and drives systems were, and how you couldn't actually just get a group of three people to play another random group of three people.

Right, Nintendo still being asinine Nintendo about that stuff is incredibly frustrating.

It does also make me worried for not just.

Games to have on my components, but games that would make a ton of sense for online components.

Go back to Nintendo World Championships and it's like they're gonna do less than you expect, and they're gonna beef the things that they end up doing in a way that's very frustrating for sure.

Oh my god.

The description for Elvira Mistress off Dark starts with It's a letter from Alvira.

It opens with can somebody help me find my chest?

It's like, no, really, I'm serious.

It's a thing goes on and on and on.

Wow, that's like her kind of humor, right, That's how should talk on those shows.

Yeah, so yeah, yeah, all right, let's see here from Breezy Caesar, I counter picked a silk song in my fantasy draft sad frownie face emoticon.

Look, I think I tried more people.

The game has to come out eventually, Yeah, really the point, Yeah, you know, we all joke it's never coming out, and they all come out.

Eventually.

There will be a day where you see a half Life three.

You know, the stuff will happen now, be a good and evil too.

Maybe not because it's honestly kind of where they ever started making me.

Maybe eventually they come to their senses, but yeah, yeah, this song was gonna happen.

All right, let's see here.

This next one is from super Blastics, who says, holy shot grub this fucking elephant graveyard video.

Yeah, this is what's Yeah, it's it's it's worth it.

It's ninety minutes.

I'll see like a lot of the stuff that was said in there.

It's like, yeah, this is all stuff that I've felt and kind of new and yeah, but it's just it's always nice to see it put into a very concise and elegant package.

And this is definitely that it's and it does feel like, okay, people are coming to their senses a little bit.

It's called how Comedy was Destroyed by an anti reality doomsday cult, and it's got a really good sort of sociological angle of explaining everything, and it's extremely entertaining.

So people should check that out.

Uh, okay, kitty, you had to set up right when I'm trying to read stuff.

Let me move you a little bit.

There we go, all right?

From David Laddow, how would you feel about a c Man SQL slash remake, maybe with either Zachary Quinto or Ethan Peck replacing Leonard Nimoy as the narrator.

Yeah, I would love it last far as maybe a little too cute, But I don't know.

It's like, can we go back home again?

Because sometimes I get these sequels.

There's been a lot of those Sega sequels happening much later that don't hit.

When they announced nights for we I was so excited and then it didn't do much for me.

Same thing with Sam Demigo.

Though more recently, like the new Shanoby fan freakantastic but boy weird, Sega is a harder thing to bring back.

The kind of classic action y platform is sega is.

Yeah, I mean I would want them to try it.

You're right, there's no guarantee that they're going to be able to figure it out and nail it.

But if if they could just use weird technology, I would even be okay with like some weird AI stuff in there, if it's just like lean into the weirdness of it.

Uh, but yeah, it probably won't happen all right.

Zombie porn I think is gonna end us here today with just beat the Luminous Arise demo and had no idea.

What I just did runs great on Steam Deck though.

Need to try that Time Girl FMV game on it.

Yeah, that's something that Mike keep saying he's gonna do, so we're for him.

Think I think we're I think it was us talking maybe some other people from Giant Bomb.

It's like one of my things with Luminus was I always feel it's like I assume I'm playing it right, but I certain reason I don't quite know if I am.

It was nice to have like Mark McDonald who like works on the game and one of the like the director of the game sitting right there kind of giving me pointers when I was like, guys, I never really got Luminus.

I just I tried it a couple of times, didn't have a psp uh.

And they're like, you know, the one thing that people don't realize is I got to wait for the line to like when the line gets to the end, that's when everything happens.

I'm like, Okay, I can start to piece this together.

And even then it's like, yeah, I feel like I should be doing more cool stuff or like I'm missing out on something still, but I definitely like got over the hump and was like, yeah, I know what I like Luminus.

Now I get it.

I want to play more of it.

And a rise looks fantastic.

All right.

That does it for the super Chats Mike, and that does it for us.

Thank you so much everybody for hanging out with us this Tuesday evening.

R Cat's just sleeping here.

It's been a good She likes to hang out when we podcast.

Now.

I don't know genis.

I never played it myself, but I guess I My understanding was that that Platinum Team and Tea game was not very well liked time at least.

Have you watched the Barbarian No, I'm not.

I'm going to make a point that here.

I know I know that well, what's him.

People have been talking telling.

Me about that, but I think it's the next the next line, the next one from Zach Craig Kreeger.

Yeah, I think so.

I don't know.

I watch during the week and I watch Bring Her Back.

That's a good ass movie.

It's pretty pretty norly shit going on in that movie.

Sure than Peel is the one where the guy is like like an athlete and he makes like a deal with a guy the devil or something.

I mean that the name, the title him definitely suggested that, because you know, it's oh, he's him all right right right right for there.

We can just get back to it whenever you're ready.

I'm ready, yah,
