Alright look, people love Angry Adam, right? I get it.
0:02
It's fun to watch someone lose their mind at a
0:04
video game. I know. But you
0:07
know what isn't fun? Shopping for overpriced, crappy
0:09
razor blades. Harry saw everyone
0:11
getting ripped off buying shaving supplies and
0:13
said, there's gotta be a better way.
0:16
And there is! It's Harry's! And to
0:18
prove it, they're offering our listeners a
0:21
$13 trial set for just 3 bucks
0:23
at harrys.com/RTG. I'm
0:25
so stoked that they've signed on to sponsor the show,
0:28
because unlike most sponsors that send me some other product
0:30
to try out before I talk about them, I've
0:33
been a Harry's guy for years. Their blades look
0:35
and feel so much better than the junk at
0:37
the store, they last a long time, and it
0:39
doesn't matter if I'm rocking my beard, stubble, a
0:42
goatee, whatever I have going on, their blades are
0:44
sharp and tight and they can trim and shape
0:46
however I want. I even use
0:48
them to shave the weird little hairs growing on my
0:50
ears now. Their blades are made
0:52
at Harry's headquarters, which I assume is
0:54
what they've named their factory, and they're
0:56
German engineered, so of course they're good
0:58
quality. And it's not just that they're great to
1:01
use, they're great to buy, because you don't have
1:03
to go to the store and find the kid with the keys. When
1:06
did buying razor blades become as big of a pain
1:08
in the ass as buying video games? I
1:10
hate that! Excuse me, will you come open this case for me
1:12
please? And then they get mad and they roll their eyes out,
1:15
like I hate doing that. Harry's ships
1:17
blades right to your door. Tell them when
1:19
you want them, the shaving cream, the blades,
1:21
the lotions, anything you need, and they'll deliver
1:23
it as scheduled. It's cheaper, it's
1:25
easier, and it's better than the store stuff. I'm
1:28
giving Harry's a slay the spire level of
1:30
endorsement here, try them, and if you don't
1:32
like them, they'll give you your money back. And
1:34
they're comfortable offering that because they have the highest
1:36
customer satisfaction in the shaving
1:38
industry. Getting ripped off isn't funny.
1:41
Switch to Harry's. Get started with
1:43
a $13 trial set for just
1:45
$3 at harrys.com/RTG. That's
1:47
harrys.com/RTG for a $3 trial
1:50
set. What's
2:21
up everybody, welcome back to Remember the Game.
2:23
It is my retro gaming podcast where every week
2:25
a buddy of mine and I sit down and we
2:27
geek out about the games we played back in the
2:29
day. My name is Adam Blank, thank you so much
2:31
for listening to the show. And
2:34
this week it is episode 287
2:36
and it's one of our prestigious Patreon
2:38
poll winning episodes. Every month our Patreons
2:40
get to pick a game to be
2:43
chatted about here on the old chatterbox.
2:45
And Tiny Toons Adventures came out on top
2:48
of our NES poll back in January, edging
2:50
out battle toads in the final vote. So
2:52
that's what we're focusing on this week. And
2:55
before anybody asks, I know I still owe
2:57
everyone a Golden Sun review. If you don't
2:59
know that one, our December Patreon poll was
3:01
all RPGs. That's coming
3:03
in early April. After playing Lufia 2,
3:06
I wanted to cleanse my pallet before
3:08
diving into another one of those meaty
3:10
JRPGs. But it is coming, I promise.
3:12
Early April you're getting Golden Sun. But
3:15
that's them, this is now and now it's time for
3:17
Tiny Toons Adventures on the NES. I actually owned
3:19
this one growing up. That black label and then
3:21
not the black box. Not to be confused with
3:23
the old black box. NES games.
3:25
This just had maybe the most boring label ever.
3:27
It was just a solid black background with the
3:29
Tiny Toons logo with Babs and Buster breaking out
3:31
of the circle. That was, I can see it
3:33
in my head. I had that game and I
3:35
actually played the shit out of it growing up.
3:37
And I was actually a pretty big fan of
3:40
the show as well, to be honest. Plucky Duck
3:42
is the man. I was never able
3:44
to beat Tiny Toons as a kid though. It's pretty
3:46
tough. If you haven't played it, it's a
3:48
basic platformer. Babs was kidnapped by
3:50
Monty Maxx and you got a saver from his
3:52
mansion. You play as Buster and then there's six
3:55
worlds and in each world you get to pick
3:57
one fellow Tiny Toon to take with you as
3:59
a sidekick. And you can choose
4:01
from plucky duck dizzy devil or furball the cat
4:03
and each of them has their own strengths and
4:05
weaknesses Honestly a pretty it's
4:07
not Mario, but it's a pretty decent little
4:09
platformer I found it tough as shit as
4:12
a kid and just recently I beat it
4:14
for the first time on stream So it
4:16
was legit people seeing it people saw it
4:18
I did it. It's got
4:20
a pretty nasty difficult spike Difficulty
4:22
spike excuse me about halfway through around
4:24
level four spot of course for any s
4:26
games I think they made them harder on purpose Just to
4:28
try to drag the game out because you can beat this
4:31
game in an hour if it's not
4:33
for that difficulty spike plus It gives you infinite continues
4:35
which helps I was honestly pretty
4:37
stoked that this game won our patreon poll because I've
4:39
always been a fan of it and I'm excited to
4:41
Give it a little bit of love here on the
4:43
old RTG. So I'm rolling solo this week It's
4:45
just the way the calendar cookie crumbled. I couldn't
4:47
light up a guess not a big deal, but
4:49
like I said Tiny tune
4:51
adventures was a huge part of my childhood.
4:54
I will have absolutely no problem Rambling on
4:56
about this one by myself and we'll get
4:58
there in just a minute because speaking of
5:00
rambling on by myself It's of course time
5:02
for another edition. I'll remember the game infamous
5:04

5:10

5:12

5:46

7:04
I give you some sales picks and
7:06
cetera and Thursday is the crown jewel
7:09
Expansion pass it goes live every Thursday
7:11
and it's a different gaming show each
7:13
week. There's some funny episodes There's some
7:15
serious episodes modern game reviews console at
7:17
retrospectives all kinds of stuff This past
7:19
week was actually expansion past number 200 So
7:22
I revisited my hundred favorite games of all
7:24
time list that I had initially published on
7:26
expansion past number 100 So
7:28
it's been a little over two years since I counted down
7:31
my hundred favorite games of all time So I revisited it
7:33
and I plugged in a whole bunch of the games that
7:35
I've been playing over the last couple of years Since I
7:37
did the first time I had 20 new
7:39
additions to my hundred favorite games
7:41
of all time Including three that squeaked into
7:44
my top 20 and they were both modern
7:46
and retro games and as is becoming tradition
7:48
Here is a sneak peek of last week's
7:50
episode of expansion past my hundred favorite games
7:52
of all time volume 2 And
7:58
we have a hundred of these to get through in about 50
8:00
minutes so to a minute let's get started number
8:02
100 on the revised list
8:04
of my hundred favorite games of all
8:07
time is Resident Evil 7 biohazard and
8:09
that was on my list the last
8:11
time we did it albeit lower it's
8:13
a top three Resident Evil for me
8:15
Resident Evil 4 Resident Evil 2 remake
8:17
and Resident Evil 7 I guess alright
8:20
so now I guess technically Resident Evil 7 is
8:23
followed in my fourth favorite Resident Evil because
8:25
both the original Resident Evil 4 and Resident
8:27
Evil 4 remake are in front of
8:29
it but Resident Evil 7 is fucking sick and I
8:31
think it's the scariest game in the Resident Evil series
8:33
it's such a good game if you haven't played it
8:35
you can handle a little bit of spice a
8:37
little bit of scare Resident Evil 7 is awesome Resident Evil
8:40
7 for the record with all the respect I know some
8:42
of you love the franchise I haven't played two yet I've
8:44
only played one in three but no Silent Hill got
8:47
on my list I like some Resident Evil better than then
8:50
Silent Hill so number 100 on my new
8:52
list Resident Evil 7 number
8:54
99 on my new list is
8:56
the Legend of Zelda the very
8:59
first one on the NES that's
9:02
no available in our archives and this week
9:04

And finally, if you're interested, I'm over
10:39
on the old Twitch box pretty regularly
10:41
these days, twitch.tv slash rememberthegame if you
10:43
wanna come by and say hi, all
10:46
right? That's enough blowing myself, let's blow some
10:48
of you by blowing in some cartridges. It
10:50
is our opening segment. Here on the show,
10:52
I read a few comments and questions from
10:54
our patrons, usually gaming related, but not always,
10:57
and we call this segment Blowing in the
10:59
Cartridge. He blows all right, he blows big
11:01
time. That's it, honey, get into the spirit.
11:04
Ah! Let's
11:06
blow our first blower this week is Rob
11:08
Mason, who said, hey Adam, going along
11:10
with Ocarina of Tim, are there any
11:12
other games or characters you pronounced wrong
11:15
and were shocked to find out? I
11:17
always pronounced Ryu from Street Fighter as
11:19
Rye-yoo, and not the correct Ree-yoo.
11:22
For the record, I will continue to say Rye-yoo.
11:24
Oh yeah, no, I do. The number of things
11:27
that, listen, people ask me all the
11:29
time, why do you say Ocarina of Tim? It
11:31
was because I used to say Ocarina or Ocarina,
11:33
Ocarina, I don't even know. I always got shit
11:35
for the way I said the instrument's name. No
11:37
matter what you say, someone else says you're saying
11:39
it wrong. So now it's Ocarina of Tim, so
11:41
nobody is happy. There's tons of
11:43
things. A few that stand out to
11:45
me, I always thought that Yuffie from
11:48
Final Fantasy VII, I thought it was Yuffie,
11:50
apparently it's Yuffie, but I always thought
11:52
it was Yuffie. So Yuffie, I'm
11:55
sure I say Kate Sith or whatever the fuck that
11:57
thing's name is wrong. A lot of- A
12:00
lot of old RPGs that had these big funky names
12:02
and never told you how to say them Levius
12:06
Levius in and Baha mute
12:08
apparently I'm saying both of those wrong. I fucking
12:11
say everything wrong I don't and should be told
12:13
at this point There's the occasional thing I say
12:15
wrong on purpose just to irritate people, but there's
12:17
still stuff I just say wrong because I don't
12:19
know any better so all kinds Rob I I
12:22
am NOT the brightest bulb in the
12:24
burned-out string of Christmas light bulbs Not
12:27
even close Nick GC I'm like the one
12:30
the cat chewed on and then got fried
12:32
smells like deep fried pussy cat or whatever
12:34
was he says Nick GC says
12:36
I would love to hear some insights into
12:38
the extended family reaction to leading a retro
12:40
gaming show What was the conversation like around
12:43
the family get-together dinner table my
12:45
family and I don't talk So
12:48
that's it talking Tony said no
12:51
I just hope you're like what I'm just kidding. I've been
12:53
to this before honestly I don't think my family really cares
12:55
my brother thinks it's kind of cool It comes on the
12:58
show once in a while But I
13:00
don't think my parents fully understand it like they
13:02
know I'm a comedian and I think they like
13:04
the comedian part I genuinely I don't
13:06
think anybody else in my family truly understands what
13:08
it is exactly I do I think
13:10
the consensus amongst my loved ones is that I
13:12
just sit in my office and play video games
13:15
all day What I mean like I do do
13:17
that for part of it But like
13:19
they don't understand the writing the editing the hosting
13:21
the recording they don't they don't understand any of
13:23
it I don't I don't think anyone has any
13:25
clue and I like it that way because when
13:27
nobody knows what I do for a living Nobody
13:29
asks me how work is going and that's fine because I don't want
13:31
to talk about work And it's
13:33
not because I don't love this job, but I just I
13:36
don't know I hate what people want to like I don't
13:38
want to talk it just like let's talk about
13:41
sports or so I don't know politics something not
13:43
controversial. Let's let's not talk about what Adam does
13:45
to make money. Let's not do that So
13:48
no honestly, they don't talk about it very much Talking
13:50
Tony said with tiny tunes being the episode I
13:53
figured I'd throw some love to the looney tunes
13:55
and ask you who's your favorite character from Looney
13:57
Tunes mine has to be the center man Bugs
13:59
Bunny I even got him tatted on my
14:01
arm but he's holding a joint, not a carrot,
14:03
because I make smart decisions. Ah,
14:05
Tolkien Toni has a tattoo of Bugs
14:08
Bunny holding a joint. I love
14:10
it. That's what tattoos are all about. My
14:13
favorite Looney Toon by a mile is probably Elmer
14:15
Fudd. I love me
14:17
some Elmer Fudd. Everything about him.
14:19
I don't... Everything about
14:21
that man. He can do no wrong in my
14:24
eyes. So Elmer Fudd all
14:26
day. Ah, that fucking... Ah, that
14:28
beautiful man. I
14:30
wish I could do his voice. I can't do his voice. And I
14:32
wish I could. Because I... I
14:34
love... I love Elmer Fudd. Ah,
14:37
Adam's Lazy Fry said,
14:39
Adam, I'm sure you've answered this before but
14:41
I haven't heard. Who is your wrestling Mount
14:43
Rushmore? I'm going with Austin Undertaker, Sting, and
14:45
Cena. These four in my opinion have transcended
14:47
the genre. Love the podcast and thanks for
14:49
all the hours of entertainment. This is tough
14:51
because when I'm picking my Mount Rushmore of
14:53
pro wrestling, I am not picking my four
14:56
favorite wrestlers. I'm picking the four that I
14:58
think have been most important. And
15:00
if that's the case, as much as I fucking... I
15:02
hate the man with every fiber of my being. Hulk
15:05
Hogan is on there. Stone Cold is on
15:07
there. I'm gonna put The Rock on there. And
15:10
then it always leaves that fourth one. It's
15:12
like Ric Flair, John Cena, The Undertaker, Sting.
15:20
I... like I hear an argument for Cena because he really
15:22
is the closest thing we've had to a modern day
15:24
one. I think
15:27
I gotta go Flair. That's just
15:29
because I'm old. If I wasn't as old as I am, I
15:31
would go Cena. But because I am old, I'll go Flair. So
15:33
I'm going Hogan, Flair, Austin, and Rock. Is
15:36
my... my... my Mount Rushmore.
15:38
God, I hate Hulk Hogan. Old
15:40
Man Gamer said, Because
16:00
you sucking Game Pass's dick all the time is the
16:02
reason I got an Xbox. Buddy, we were talking about
16:04
this on stream one day, if I could get a
16:06
kickback for all the games and shit I've sold over
16:09
the Slay the- I would own like 5% of
16:12
Slay the Spire. And yeah, I've probably sold
16:14
a few Xboxes over the years as
16:16
well. Um, no, honestly dude, just
16:18
play the- play the- the- the remaster, whatever it
16:20
is. There's no- there's not much differences, it's just-
16:22
it's just a better version of the same game.
16:25
So, I hope you enjoy them, I personally like the
16:27
Gears games better than Halo. Uh, maybe
16:29
that's a hot take, I do- they're both great, but I like Gears
16:31
better. And uh, yeah, you're good. Just-
16:33
just jump into like the most modern version of it.
16:35
And just enjoy it, you're gonna- you're gonna have a
16:38
good time. Gears- oh, Gears is- Gears 4 is a
16:40
little weak, but other than that I like Gears, they're
16:42
good games. Uh, Donkey
16:44
Shlong Bunghole Beat. Classy.
16:47
Says, uh, since starting Remember the Game
16:49
Incorporated Industries, but whatever. Uh, do
16:52
you feel that your gaming skills have improved? Are there
16:54
any games that you've beaten that you don't think you
16:56
would've been able to handle before your podcast practice? I
16:59
wouldn't say that my gaming has improved because
17:01
I play so many games now. If anything,
17:03
I'm probab- I've never been a great gamer.
17:05
I- I'll never- like, Tetris I can hold
17:08
my own, Mario Kart I'm okay at, but platformers
17:10
I'm good. There's very few games that you'll find
17:12
me sitting here and say I'm good at. Um,
17:14
I would say I've gotten worse. Because
17:17
now it's like as soon as I'm done a game and
17:19
I can record an episode about it, it's on to the
17:21
next game. So I'm not even getting my reps in as
17:23
much, but I will say that like, yeah, there's a few
17:25
games like, um, TMNT on
17:27
the NES, Maximum Carnage, Spider-Man, I- I've
17:30
beaten those games. Uh,
17:32
I just beat Lost Levels. And those are
17:34
games that I probably wouldn't have the patience to beat otherwise.
17:36
So, I don't know if it's so much that I'm getting
17:38
better, as it is just I have more time to play
17:40
games now, and I'm on stre- when you're on stream, you
17:42
don't want to rage quit on stream. So I stick with
17:45
it, so people, you know, I- I look good. But, uh,
17:47
no, I've probably gotten worse. And it's gonna
17:49
continue. I suck. And
17:51
so my Let's Play series, youtube.com/rememberthegame, it's
17:53
not Adam is good at video games,
17:55
it's Adam sucks. At
17:57
video games. Uh, Super Jess! Said.
18:00
A blank as a fellow Super Mario World obsess
18:02
or what is your favorite area to place? The
18:04
force of illusion might hit the hardest this thousand
18:06
for me, but there's something about that Valley of
18:09
Bows or Theme that fucking pumps you up the
18:11
first time you enter. curious to hear yours tears.
18:14
Mine is the value Belzer honestly.
18:16
The. Force of Illusion is my least
18:19
favorite because I always that install road
18:21
because I always forget. About
18:23
me to fuck up with Hundred Percent Runner Ninety
18:25
Six Months. Those are the places where I always
18:27
miss something and can't remember what I miss. So.
18:30
I would say Valley About is my favorite.
18:32
Plus I love that like the glowing sign
18:35
of the back door and everything I was
18:37
castle and the either The Force of Illusion
18:39
or The Vanilla Job or my least favorite.
18:41
Areas in that game. And
18:44
finally. Before. We move on. It's
18:46
letter time. It's loaded times. Fill up
18:48
my mouth with parts said hello my
18:50
good Sir Adams. What is your opinion on? The
18:52
current storage capacity apostles With Appears Five only
18:54
having like one terabyte, I was constantly moving
18:56
title soon, external drive where the Ps Five
18:59
couldn't be place finally broke down and I
19:01
saved up. or and as as the upgrade
19:03
a crease my Ps five dollars from one
19:05
terabyte. The five terabyte also was really nervous
19:07
about installing the you Did It as he
19:09
took me longer to figure out how to
19:11
get the cover off that A did you
19:13
install it Plus I have all the space
19:15
I need for those hundred gigabyte Call of
19:17
Duty titles now. Are you know
19:19
what? This has been a big talking
19:21
point with this generation, particularly I think
19:23
with X box and game past. Ah,
19:26
As. I. Will say
19:28
that like. Personally,
19:30
I haven't I haven't had a lot of problems, but
19:32
I don't play it out of game. With I play,
19:34
I mean I played on a game when I play like
19:37
four or five at a time. So. It's not
19:39
really up and and I have all three of my
19:41
i might be a spy my X box am i
19:43
switch all law hard wired in so like if I
19:45
to it'll say I got deleted the last of us
19:47
part you have my p s five and that I
19:49
wanted to read downloaded when the new version came up
19:51
with a blade again. And Us
19:53
is a big game and it only took me like
19:56
your to me like five minutes to download them widens
19:58
with us. I've never really found it to be. The
20:00
problem to have three download my games because it
20:02
doesn't take very long. So I've never had an
20:04
issue with the capacity either because I just delete
20:06
stuff and. Read. Download the for five games
20:08
at a time that I am playing a will see
20:10
the series s has given me a little bit of
20:12
a headache because I'm if I'm not mistaken that was
20:14
only have five hundred gigabytes. I want to go down
20:16
there the living room and by the time I put
20:19
like golf and Mlb the show on their I could
20:21
basically get like one or two games and I'm than
20:23
a pretty well build up so that one is part
20:25
of me around a little bit but I've been okay
20:27
with the one terabyte now if I was like if
20:29
I wasn't doing what I do for a living and
20:31
I was play am I Call of Duty and Madison
20:33
and you know for five bigger games that I was
20:35
constantly switching in and out. Then yeah
20:38
that I could see becoming a little bit of
20:40
an issue. I do like that they've made it
20:42
somewhat easy to upgrade the storage space. I was
20:44
x boxes of the by the stupid card but
20:46
whatever, I don't have the can do other that
20:48
oh there's other ways expand a series x. Other
20:51
than that, The
20:53
card they invented by don't care because I
20:55
don't I might look at expand my any
20:57
with other I do they disappear Problem moving
20:59
forward and I news is going to be
21:01
a slippery slope. Proconsul manufacturers because they. Clearly.
21:04
Whether anyone wants the degree of we are not
21:06
like we've had this discussion a billion times. Games
21:08
are going the way of digital. You know the
21:11
like. It is why you puzzle games. I get
21:13
it. no problem. games are going the way of
21:15
digital. That is just it's a fact that just
21:17
happens. as games go digital. people need more space
21:19
on a causal and then you add in the
21:21
games keep getting bigger and I'm sure it's not
21:23
safe to say about appears Fiber at X box
21:25
series x with to terabyte a storage on it.
21:28
But I feel like it's inevitable they're going to
21:30
have to go that way. See what games are
21:32
taken up? A hundred hundred fifty gigs. Of space
21:34
on your causal. how many can you fit on
21:36
there? So if you want us to go digital
21:38
you got especially with be as pleasant game as
21:40
the services were. Of download games. which
21:43
again set up history i like streaming my game
21:45
though too but if i gotta be downloading ali
21:47
g visually got to give him more space so
21:49
i have not had an issue with it but
21:51
i do the is going to be a concern
21:53
i think this is the last generation where they'll
21:55
be able to get away without having a pot
21:57
of storage like i think whatever the p a
21:59
six and the Xbox bone
22:01
or whatever the fuck they call their next system
22:03
is whenever those come out they're
22:07
gonna have to I think 2 terabytes is gonna be the
22:09
minimum and I think people will be looking for more than
22:11
that I think that's gonna be tricky so but
22:13
as an all digital gamer or mostly digital gamer it hasn't
22:15
been a huge deal for me that's
22:18
just me, anyway alright, thank you everybody that
22:20
wrote in as always we'll answer a few
22:22
more of those questions on the Rambling Idiot
22:24
next week in our left blower segment but
22:26
that's for then, this is for now let's switch things up and
22:28
get to our smash hit segment, the official game
22:31
show of Remember the Game Industries, it is
22:33
Play One, Remake One and Roll Squad got
22:41
a huge thank you to Classic Concentration from the
22:43
NES for unknowingly providing us with the theme easy
22:46
for the show the rules are simple, every week
22:48
I give our Patreons three retro video games they
22:50
can play one as it was released, Remake One
22:52
is a modern game and the third is a
22:54
race from time forever and as always there are
22:56
no wrong answers but there is a right one
22:58
and we'll get to that in just a minute
23:00
this week we're talking Tiny Toons so I figured
23:02
why not go all the way? three more Tiny
23:04
Toons games, we've got Babs Big Break for the
23:07
Game Boy Buster Busts Loose for the SNES and
23:09
Hidden Treasure which for some odd reason does not
23:11
do the Automatopoeia B thing it's Automatopoeia
23:13
the one where you keep saying the
23:15
same letters, I think it is, anyway Hidden
23:17
Treasure seems like an odd name but Hidden Treasure for
23:19
the Sega Genesis not as close,
23:22
not anywhere close as the title
23:24
vote as last week was last week we had a three
23:26
week tie, three way tie which was sick this week 38%
23:29
of you said Play Buster Busts Loose, Remake
23:31
Hidden Treasure and Erase Babs Big Break let's
23:33
see what a few of you had to
23:35
say here then I'll tell you what the
23:37
right answer was Fire M Bomb said the
23:39
football level of Buster Busts Loose was always
23:41
fire and the replay value is so baked
23:43
in so I'll play that, I'll remake or
23:45
I'll erase Hidden Treasure because I'm sure I'm
23:47
not the only person that didn't know it
23:49
even existed so we'll be missed and then
23:51
I'll remake Babs Big Break if there's one
23:53
thing gaming needs it is more female leads
23:55
that drop anvils on people I
23:58
can get on board with all that I'd be I'd be totally down with
24:01
a game that stars Babs. I like Babs. I'm down
24:03
with that. Speaking of Babs, Babs the Babs said alright
24:05
didn't play any of these but I haven't voted in
24:07
a long time and I want to participate. Play
24:09
bus loose because the art box looks not the box
24:12
the art box. I That
24:14
threw me off the box art looks nice Remake
24:16
Babs big break because Babs is my name
24:18
so this game shall be given all the love
24:20
with top graphics soundtrack gameplay and then erase
24:22
hidden treasure because Sega Genesis is the Enemy
24:25
and it shall be extinguished ha ha
24:27
ha that I think you smelled
24:29
enemy odd And I'm assuming there's a reason that's going over my
24:31
head Oh and the name
24:34
suggests the childish boring game where you just
24:36
wander around looking for stupid chests Kind
24:38
of does doesn't it? I don't want to walk around looking
24:41
very kind of does I'm I'm not erasing hidden treasure, but
24:43
I can get on board at that lodge Mandak
24:45
said one of those weird games. I actually played
24:47
as a kid. I'll play Babs big break It
24:49
was an actual blast and I played it recently
24:51
on my old game boy I'll remake hidden treasure
24:53
because it's a Konami game and why the hell
24:56
not and then I'll erase Buster bus loose Because
24:59
one simply has to go I think these are all
25:01
Konami games for the record But I'm
25:03
sure that's gonna ruffle some feathers a racing Buster
25:05
bus loose I love it and maverick said play
25:07
Buster bus loose cuz I think this game looks
25:09
fantastic And it's 16-bit glory and
25:11
the football level is next best thing since Tecmo
25:13
Super Bowl and I want to beat it since
25:15
I never Did I'm gonna remake Babs big break as
25:17
I think she could use a title of her own
25:20
as could plucky and all the other Great characters of
25:22
this franchise and with the remake anything is possible and
25:24
that leaves hidden treasure to be erased from all eternity
25:26
I never played it, but I think with the other
25:28
two I would get enough tiny tunes tickle for the
25:30
pickle I like that. I'm
25:32
actually going to runner up. I gotta say
25:34
hidden treasure. Well, I've never played it deserves more
25:36
respect I'm going with the runner-up this week 20%
25:39
of you voted the way I did as did G
25:41
G Zill any
25:43
um, seven nine two G Zill any
25:45
um seven nine two This is a
25:47
tricky one But hidden treasure is the only one
25:49
I played religiously as a kid. So it's my
25:51
favorite I'll play it as it is but damn
25:53
those hell cave levels I will remake Buster bus
25:55
loose considering his Super Nintendo and I assume it's
25:57
already a great game and I'll erase Babs big
25:59
break I haven't played that one. I'll
26:01
have to erase it nothing personal bad same
26:03
order completely different reasoning I'm gonna play hidden treasure
26:06
on the Sega Genesis because I haven't and I've
26:08
grown quite fond of the Sega Genesis in my
26:10
older Years and I want to see what the
26:12
Genesis can do with tiny toons. So I'm playing
26:14
hidden treasure. I gotta play this game I'm gonna
26:17
remake Buster bus loose on the Super Nintendo because
26:19
I have played it a little bit. Everyone loves this
26:21
game I like it I'm down But I'd love to
26:23
see if they could just make like this seems to
26:25
be the best tiny tunes game And so
26:27
that's the one I want to see if they could make look like
26:29
the actual show in a modern remake on
26:31
the hard drive Like imagine playing when it looks just like
26:33
it That'd be fucking sick and then I'm erasing Bab's big
26:36
break on the game boy with all the respect I don't
26:38
want to race any of them. I like
26:40
Bab's I like the game boy But if I have
26:42
to choose between a game boy game a Super Nintendo
26:44
game and a Genesis game The game boy game is
26:46
probably the one getting the boot unless it's Link's Awakening
26:48
or Pokemon Maybe Tetris.
26:51
Yeah, maybe Texas shout out
26:53
something gets that reference. So that's the right order
26:55
Thank you. Everybody that wrote in and played along
26:57
as always now listen Normally,
26:59
I tell you what I've been playing then we get
27:01
a sponsor in here and then we get to your
27:03
comments on tiny Tunes adventures, but I'm just gonna be
27:06
honest with everybody I fucked up this week and
27:08
while I was working on my notes, I accidentally delete it
27:11
Your comments on tiny tune adventures. I wish
27:13
patreon made it as easy to Post
27:16
stuff as it does the delete stuff because I
27:18
can delete shit like but it's
27:20
trying to get posts up there That's so fucking hard.
27:22
So I sincerely apologize especially in a week where I'm
27:25
rolling solo I really wanted to read some listener comments
27:27
and I don't have any I fucked up. I'm sorry
27:29
I assume all the comments were like this game is
27:31
good It's kind of hard and plucky is the best
27:33
tiny tune in which case those are all accurate. So
27:35
here's what's gonna happen We're gonna pause for a sponsor
27:38
now Then I'm gonna tell you what I've been playing
27:40
and then we'll get into tiny toons. All right, I
27:42
fucked up. I'm sorry Here's your sponsor. We'll be right
27:44
back This
27:47
show is sponsored by better help as
27:50
we get older we get more selective with
27:52
our relationships It's a quality over quantity thing
27:55
Or is it quantity over quality? No
27:57
quality quality means it's better quantity means
27:59
it's Quality over quantity, yes. And
28:02
I don't know about any of you, but
28:04
my circle of friends has shrunk exponentially as
28:06
I've gotten older. And the friends that have
28:08
stayed in that circle are some of my
28:10
most important relationships these days. You should take
28:13
a quality over quantity approach with your relationships
28:15
and put the work into the ones that
28:17
really matter. Because whether we like it or
28:19
not, relationships take work. And therapy can be
28:21
a phenomenal way to help lighten that load.
28:23
Whether it's working on relationships with your friends,
28:26
your family, your coworkers, whoever you want. I
28:28
think some people hear therapy and they think
28:30
it's just for those of us that have
28:32
really been through the ringer and experienced some
28:35
crazy stuff. And that's just not the case.
28:37
The gym isn't just for bodybuilders. And therapy
28:39
is like the gym for your mind. And
28:41
it can help anyone get more out of
28:43
and bring more to their relationships. BetterHelp

game. Okay,
29:16
what have I been playing over the last week? Tiny
29:18
Toon Adventures on the NES. I couldn't believe I
29:21
beat it. And like I was just streaming it thinking I wouldn't beat
29:23
it. I'd get stuck in world four like I always do. And I
29:25
got past world four and then beat it 20
29:27
minutes later, it was fucking wild. It was nice, I
29:29
don't know if any of you ever experienced that.
29:31
If you haven't, I hope everybody experiences that at least once.
29:33
You go back to a game that owned your soul as
29:35
a kid and you're just able to beat it. And I
29:38
beat it in like two sessions and I couldn't believe it.
29:40
I was like, fuck man, maybe I am getting better at
29:42
video games, who knows? But I
29:44
felt really fucking good. So I've been playing Tiny
29:46
Toons. I've also been playing Mario vs. Donkey Kong
29:48
on the Switch. I know this is a remake
29:51
of the Game Boy Advance game. I don't know
29:53
if it's Game Boy Advance or Game Boy Color. I'd never
29:55
played the original. I'm playing this one now.
29:57
Very charming, cute little game. The
29:59
first. The World's Ramos. By
30:02
frustratingly. Easy. but now it's as though
30:04
it expecting you to get our but it is
30:06
given me just a little bit. Of
30:08
stop and think now so I'm hoping that
30:10
trend continues sorts of and I'll do a
30:12
full review on expansion pass. You're probably next
30:14
week but I have a barber's Donkey Kong
30:16
has been a good time. It's the I
30:19
still play Assad upon Twenty Seventy Seven, still
30:21
plugging away that would arrive times and then
30:23
dude I started playing this game. Ballot row.
30:25
I. Think of open saying that rice and if you've
30:27
not played it or seen it is kind of blowing
30:29
up on steam and stuff right now. Played ah my
30:32
Steam Dick X or oh Celia Polygamous which was good
30:34
to get them as the deck while playing a mess
30:36
with Isis. It's is this as a poker. Rogue.
30:38
Like is a card game. When.
30:40
You get don't give a deck of fifty two
30:42
playing cards and then basically you have to fight
30:44
all these like battles, rid of your calls on
30:46
these bosses were you have like you are. You
30:49
get to play for five poker hands as you
30:51
have to earn enough tips. The to beat the
30:53
score that they're telling the yeah heard at least
30:55
three hundred ships to be the first you fight
30:57
a small Blythe, the fight a big blinds that
30:59
you fight like a boss that you go onto
31:01
the next level at every time. Every when you
31:03
place the score you dig the tires. Totally three
31:05
hundred four, fifty six hundred. I. think I live
31:07
by so far was added put up like thirty thousand
31:09
or something as they have a deck of fifty two
31:12
cards and you draw. The at a card hand or
31:14
whatever. It is as a you have to play
31:16
a poker hand up the five cards like his
31:18
own pair to pair three have applied to straight
31:20
flush a full house for the kind Streep was
31:22
yet the player hand and then it adds up
31:24
the you can do you what you earn points
31:26
based on the cards you place but also why
31:28
you play the game. You can collect jokers that
31:31
adds like random things like they may multiplayer score
31:33
by ten points every time they may say hey
31:35
have you play three cards or less will multiply
31:37
or score by eight every time you play them
31:39
or something and you can also pick up buffers
31:41
to increase the power of each the individual handling
31:43
a fluster straighter. To bear any good. Also pick
31:46
up. The power select obscene certain cards
31:48
see my be able to add like you
31:50
may be build a bigger of for. That
31:52
were Four points. Worth Ten points. And.
31:54
Added to it as. a multiplier of times due
31:57
to add your scores it's a tricky thing to
31:59
explain of i grew up I'll probably do a
32:01
review of it eventually, but look it up. If
32:03
you like poker and you like roguelikes, look up
32:05
Balletro. B-A-L-A-T-R-O. It's only like 20 bucks,
32:07
it's on everything. I'm really enjoying it, it's a really
32:10
cool, I'm not quite ready to put in Slay the
32:12
Spire, the Slay the
32:14
Spire camp, but I'm really, really enjoying it,
32:16
Balletro. So I've been playing quite a bit of that. That
32:19
is it. Now normally, here's where I read your
32:21
comments. I fucked up, deleted your comments. I'm so
32:23
sorry. You can unsubscribe and yell at me if
32:25
you want to. Please don't do that. I'm very
32:27
sorry, I fucked up. We'll try it again next
32:29
week. Maybe I just like to hear
32:31
the sound of my own voice, because I'm about to talk
32:33
about TinyTunes all by myself. I am going to cue up
32:35
some music. And
32:39
when I get sick of listening to it,
32:41
it's time to talk TinyTune Adventures, which originally
32:43
released in North America on the NES back
32:45
in December of 1991. Enjoy
32:48
the podcast everybody. Sorry again about the comments,
32:50
let's. All
33:15
right, so I should just warn you all right now.
33:17
It's not often that I do an episode of this
33:19
show by myself, but when I do, it has a
33:21
tendency to be way more all over the map than
33:23
a normal episode. It's me doing this by myself, it's
33:25
a lot like a town with money. No
33:28
one knows how they got it, danged if they know how to use
33:30
it. In my
33:32
head that made sense. That was when they get that
33:34
reference. Guy, I love The Simpsons. Anyways, we'll see how
33:36
this goes. I'm by myself this week, I'm fine with
33:38
it. Like I said, I grew up playing
33:40
TinyTunes Adventures on the NES, I had this
33:42
game, and I loved this, I fucking
33:44
loved this game as a kid. Because I loved this
33:47
show. I used to watch this show pretty religiously when
33:49
I was just a wee little Adam. I was
33:51
always Team Plucky. I will never move
33:53
off that. I think Plucky is the best character on TinyTunes.
33:56
Eat me, I don't care. And he's in
33:58
this game, which makes it awesome. in
34:00
the intro if you've never played it tiny
34:02
to adventures was a classic was a platformer
34:04
on the NES and this was from an
34:06
era where it seemed like
34:08
every licensed show every movie everything like
34:11
licensed games or a dime a dozen
34:14
and let's be honest any of you that grew up
34:16
in the NES era like me you probably rented some
34:18
of them because you saw your favorite movie or TV
34:20
show or whatever the fuck on the box and then
34:22
you brought it home and then you were like this
34:24
really isn't very good there was a lot of those
34:27
Ghostbusters it's still to this day burns
34:29
my ass that Ghostbusters on the NES is
34:31
as bad as it is because it just
34:33
shouldn't be hard to make a good Ghostbusters
34:36
game and quite frankly Ghostbusters 2 is
34:38
even worse which makes sense because the
34:40
movie's not as good as the first one I digress we
34:43
probably all played some of those bad licensed
34:45
games over the years I was just thinking
34:47
about this before I started recording what
34:50
is the best license
34:53
like fuck what is the best
34:55
license game on the NES and I I
35:00
know some people will argue like buck I've never
35:02
played buck yo hair oh hair I hear it's
35:04
very good DuckTales is up there Chip and Dale
35:06
is pretty good if I had to
35:08
say I would either go with I
35:11
would hear an argument for any of the Ninja Turtles trilogy
35:13
but I know almost still most people would argue Turtles 2
35:15
and Turtles 3 and I still think Batman
35:18
the video game on the NES is very good is
35:20
Tiny Toon Adventures as good as those no
35:23
is it Tiny Toon or Tiny Toon I think
35:27
it's Tiny Toon Adventures because why would you
35:30
pluralize it twice I got to look this up now
35:32
tiny yeah tiny toon adventures that makes that's
35:34
what I thought okay anyway I
35:37
don't think tiny toon adventures is as good as
35:39
some of those games but it's like the next
35:41
year it's very very decent like we
35:43
got this game for Christmas because I loved the
35:45
show and it was one of those times or
35:47
it was like oh man this this doesn't suck
35:49
like Ghostbusters burn me burn me deep
35:51
as a child and this one didn't this is a
35:53
solid little platformer I've you've never played it like I
35:56
mentioned in the intro you play as Buster and then
35:58
you get to team up with plucky duck Dizzy
36:00
Devil and Furball, the blue cat,
36:03
and basically you have to rescue Babs from
36:05
Monty Maxx. I don't know what Monty Maxx's
36:08
backstory is. In
36:10
this college or academy or whatever
36:12
the fuck it is. Like
36:15
Looney Tunes, Tiny Toons are all a little
36:17
looney in this cartoon or invading your TV or whatever. I
36:19
don't remember. Acme Acres,
36:21
that's what it is. I don't know why
36:25
he's there. And I'm sure, don't bother writing it.
36:27
People write in and they're like, yeah well if
36:29
you read the fan fiction novel published by Stephen
36:31
King in 2001 you would know
36:33
that Monty Maxx actually owed to the college and
36:35
he would, you know, anyway he's like the rich
36:37
jerk kid that lives there. Kind of
36:39
looks like a mix between Hey Arnold and Nelson Muntz
36:42
and he has kidnapped or
36:44
bunny napped Babs and it's up
36:47
to Buster and his friends to rescue him. And so it's
36:49
a pretty basic platformer. You go through six worlds. Most
36:51
of the worlds have three stages until for some reason
36:54
you get to the last two. Which I'll go through
36:56
each of them because I've now I've beaten this game.
36:58
I can hold that over my head. I'll go through
37:00
each of the levels individually and let you know what
37:02
they are. But basically you go through six worlds, you
37:04
control Buster and then you get to pick one of
37:06
the three friends to take into each
37:08
world with you. It had the beginning of each world,
37:12
Shirley. Was that her name? Shirley.
37:15
She was like the female plucky. She was the
37:17
duck, the fortune teller. She pops
37:19
up and she says make
37:22
sure you pick one of your friends to
37:24
take with you on this on this, you
37:26
know, this adventure to this world. And what
37:28
I think my favorite thing about the game
37:30
is that each of the four characters, Buster
37:32
plucky, dizzy and furball have strengths and weaknesses.
37:34
And they're quite apparent when you start playing
37:36
it pretty quickly. You notice. So let's just
37:38
start off with that Buster. You always have
37:40
to play just like Mario and the main
37:42
characters and Final Fantasies and stuff. I hate
37:44
when you can't swap out the main character
37:46
because if I could choose I would roll
37:48
with plucky and furball, but it is what
37:50
it is. You have to play as Buster. So
37:52
Buster is the main guy and you always get
37:54
you always have him in your duo and he's
37:56
the fastest character of the bunch and easily the
37:58
highest jumper, which makes sense. He's a rabbit that
38:01
kind of checks out. I do this guy jumps
38:03
like it I don't want to
38:05
say it totally takes inspiration from Mario 3
38:07
because I remember his help before after Mario
38:09
3 But it definitely has some Mario 3 in
38:11
it like when you land on an enemy you Soar
38:14
and Buster like Buster can clear
38:16
the fucking screen Sore up
38:18
in the air the dude practically flies when he
38:20
bounces off enemies and he can move when you
38:22
get running with them the game Actually runs really
38:24
well to look at into that, but the game
38:26
actually flies when you're running around so Buster That's
38:28
basically all he does he's the fastest one he
38:30
can jump high and you always have to control
38:33
him Really the secret sauce is choosing between plucky
38:35
dizzy and furball and there are some levels I
38:37
think it's level two three and four where Shirley
38:39
will recommend hey for world to take plucky for
38:41
world three take dizzy for world Four take furball
38:43
for world one five and six. It's up to
38:45
you. You pick I mean it's up to you
38:47
anyways pick whoever you want, but there's a
38:49
reason that they recommend you take who you want to
38:52
take so Plucky his
38:54
abilities are that he can kind of do the float
38:56
like Mario could do with a leaf not when he's
38:58
flying But when he's just kind of coming down you
39:00
can tap the button and he looks he's got this
39:02
awesome Look on his face And he flaps his wings
39:05
and he can't fly but he can kind of float
39:07
himself back down to the ground So that's really handy
39:09
when you're above water and then when you're in water
39:12
Buster dizzy and furball control like any other
39:14
platformer where you tap a and you kind
39:16
of it's like the flappy bird mechanics So
39:18
you're trying to swim whereas plucky controls like Mario
39:21
with a frog suit and you can just use
39:23
the d-pad Just theorem around which
39:25
is a huge fucking advantage so for me by
39:27
far plucky and not only is the best character
39:29
in tinytoons He's the best character in this game,
39:31
and I wonder if the reason he's my favorite
39:33
tiny toon is Because he's the most
39:35
OP character in the tiny toon game that I
39:37
played the most but he's that's what he does
39:39
I'm a big fan of plucky dizzy is my
39:41
least favorite to play as which is too bad
39:43
because he's he's a good-looking What
39:45
is he a Tasmanian dizzy like like what
39:48
animal is he like what is because he's like
39:50
the little pink Tasmanian devil But
39:52
like is that the name of the what
39:54
they are? Dizzy
39:57
is a young purple male Tasmanian devil
40:00
Oh, okay. Yeah, alright. I- I know
40:03
I'm gonna look like an idiot now, but
40:05
like, is the Tasmanian Devil a real animal?
40:08
Tasmanian Devil.
40:14
I know, some of you are probably laughing- Holy
40:16
Jesus, what the fuck is that thing? They
40:18
are a real thing, but they don't look anything
40:20
like- like Digi Devil does. They look like
40:23
rats. Actually, it's kinda cute. Look
40:26
at that guy. Wow. Tasmanian Devil. I'll be
40:28
damned. Alright, anyway, so Digi is another one
40:30
of the characters that you can pick, and
40:32
he's like the tank. When you run with
40:34
him, he doesn't really run at all. His
40:36
jump isn't anything to write home about, but
40:38
his special power- I'm- I'm seeing that
40:40
a lot lately, you write home about- but anyway,
40:42
his special power is he's the only one of
40:44
the four that can actually like attack outside of
40:46
jumping on enemies. He can go into like the
40:49
tornado, you know, the Tasmanian Devil spin, and
40:51
just take out any enemy he touches while he's
40:54
spinning. But the problem is that his spin only
40:56
lasts for about three or four seconds, and then
40:58
there's like a power meter at the bottom of
41:00
the screen, and when it runs to zero, you
41:02
can't use this spin again until the power meter
41:04
fills back up. And it fills up way slower
41:07
than it depletes when you're using this spin. But
41:09
you can use it to take out pretty well
41:11
any enemy outside of bosses, of course. Maybe
41:14
you- I've never actually tried it. It'd be funny if it worked on bosses, and
41:16
I didn't know that, but I don't think it does. And
41:19
you can actually take out some bricks too, and like create
41:21
some shortcuts and stuff. So is it cool-
41:23
I think he's actually the coolest looking sprite
41:25
of the four. He's much bigger than the rest, and
41:27
he's got his tongue hanging out of his face, and
41:29
he's got his little propeller beanie hat, and- I mean, I'm
41:32
pro team dizzy, but he's kind of useless in this game.
41:34
Outside of World 3, where they tell him to tell
41:36
you to use him, he's kind of useless. And
41:38
then Furball the cat, his special
41:40
power is that he can climb walls, but he
41:42
can't like stick to them like Spider-Man while you're
41:45
jumping. You can climb walls, but then as soon
41:47
as you stop jumping, if you just hold against
41:49
the wall, he slowly slides back down it. And
41:52
that comes in really handy in some of the
41:54
later levels. So if I was ranking the characters
41:56
in this game, that's the worst. It would go
41:58
plucky, bugs, Furball, dizzy. I
42:00
love you, but you're you're fucking useless So that's
42:02
basically what each character does and then so each
42:04
world Like world one world two world
42:06
three and world four you play three stages And you
42:09
have to pick a sidekick to take into the world
42:11
to go through all three stages with you can't switch
42:13
midstage You have to take them in with you throughout
42:15
the level or that world the three stages And then
42:17
when you beat the stages it goes back to the
42:20
overworld map and Buster hops To
42:22
the next world and then you get to pick a new sidekick
42:24
to take in to tackle three more stages And if you want
42:26
to swap your partner Then there's like balloons
42:29
floating throughout the game and which are basically like
42:31
your item boxes and some of them have hearts
42:33
in them Which give you a second
42:35
hit which I'll explain more to second and some
42:37
of them contain It's just like a red bouncing
42:40
ball with a star on it And if you
42:42
touch that ball Then you instantly swap it to
42:44
your teammate and then you can't swap back Until
42:46
you find another one of those balls and it
42:49
can be a little bit frustrating for example in
42:51
world two there's a level that's 100% swimming
42:54
and which is why Shirley recommends you take
42:56
plucky and You can
42:58
there is one of those swapping balls in
43:00
this world And if you accidentally touch it
43:02
then even though you brought plucky to Trump
43:04
Navit to help navigate the water Now you're stuck
43:06
as Buster and you have to swim through the water like a like
43:08
a I don't know how well bunnies swim
43:11
But I assume based on this game not very well
43:13
So that's how you swap your
43:15
teammates and that's really all there is to the
43:17
picking of the characters and the teammates and then
43:19
some Other characters make appearances like I said Shirley
43:21
shows up between levels to recommend
43:23
who you should take as a sidekick once
43:26
per world you can find a door just a
43:29
random door and if you find one go
43:31
in it and throughout the game you
43:33
pick up carrots similar to coins and Hampton
43:35
the the pig is waiting on the other side
43:38
of the door and he'll give you an extra
43:40
life for every 30 carrots That
43:42
you pick up during the world. So he's obviously worth fighting
43:44
because that's where you cash your carrots in I
43:47
don't know the name of that bird I don't even
43:49
know what the bird says but one of the coolest
43:51
cameos in the game is there's that like I Don't
43:53
even like I think it's like a buzzard I don't know but
43:56
it's got like the bull cut the purple hair and
43:58
I don't know if it says nope nope or dope
44:00
dope but every time you beat a level it plays
44:02
that like the and now our song
44:06
is done but and then he goes dope dope
44:08
and then you go to the next level it's
44:10
a nice nice little cameo I'm a fan of
44:12
that dude what was the
44:14
fuck was the name I never
44:17
got it to show up and all the times I was
44:19
replaying it over the last couple weeks get ready for this
44:21
episode but there's like a Darth Vader clone that's like a
44:23
duck and I don't really remember him
44:25
from the show but he just shows up
44:28
I think you have to have a certain number of carrots when
44:30
you beat a level he'll just show up and if you can
44:32
fight him and beat him then you get
44:34
a bunch of extra lives he never showed up once
44:36
while I was replaying this game and then Elmyra
44:38
the little girl from tiny toons that loves the
44:40
animals and wants to hug them and squeeze them
44:42
and I think that's what her whole her whole
44:44
stick was she's a midway boss in each of
44:47
the first four worlds so when you beat stage
44:49
one you just go from beginning to end you
44:51
get through the door you beat the level the
44:53
second level once you beat it then you get
44:55
to the exit door and then you have to
44:57
go through this little mini game with Elmyra where
44:59
she's basically just blindly running left and right sliding
45:01
all over the place and once in a while
45:03
she hits a wall or something she'll stop running
45:06
and just look at the camera for a minute and
45:08
hearts will come up and she's just kind of hugging herself because
45:10
she wants to catch the animal and squeeze her and you basically
45:12
squeeze them and you basically just have to avoid
45:15
Elmyra for about 15 seconds
45:18
or so until an exit door appears and then get
45:20
to the exit before she catches you and she never
45:22
caught me once in all the time I was replaying
45:24
this she's really not very difficult to dodge but I
45:26
do like that they threw that in there is just
45:28
like it's just a little bit of a mix-up I'm
45:30
a fade I like that a lot and
45:32
then in the third world the third level in each world
45:35
you beat the level and then you have to do
45:37
a boss fight and I admittedly have not watched tiny
45:40
toons since probably about 92 93 so it's
45:44
been fuck me I'm old it's been
45:46
like I can't it's been 30
45:48
years since I've watched tiny toons so I
45:50
don't remember the names of any of the
45:52
characters but like the first boss is this
45:54
like evil scientist on a skateboard that throws
45:56
anvils at you the second boss
45:58
is a pirate that jumps up and down
46:00
and then whenever you land- you all you have to do is
46:02
jump on their head three times and when you
46:05
jump on his head he takes off for a
46:07
minute and barrels come rolling at you the third
46:09
boss is like a werewolf thing underground and he's
46:11
the coolest looking boss of the bunch
46:13
for sure the fourth boss is this fucking ape
46:15
and I don't know if that was
46:17
a character I assume it was a character from the
46:19
show but maybe not, I don't fucking know but basically
46:21
you're on like a construction site and you
46:24
have to stand on these two beams that
46:26
are pointed like imagine, if you never played the
46:28
game, imagine the bottom of a pinball machine where
46:30
the two flippers are pointed at like a 45
46:32
degree angle down and then there's the hole in
46:34
the middle that's what these two girders look like
46:36
and then the ape is up above them all
46:39
on these blocks and the ape is pounding
46:41
the ground and making little baby apes fall
46:43
from the sky that are walking around and all you
46:45
need to do to defeat- and this was- I could
46:47
never get by this fucking ape fight as a kid
46:49
and then I finally figured out all you have to
46:51
do instead of jumping on his head like you do
46:53
other bosses you just have to jump on his kids
46:55
and if you kill enough of his kids, all the
46:57
beams he's standing on disappear and then he falls down
46:59
that hole, falls down the hole and then he dies
47:01
and then you move on I don't know what- so
47:03
again I don't remember if any of them are actual
47:05
like characters from the show or not I haven't played
47:07
the game in a- or watched the show in a
47:09
long time but that's the bosses of the first four
47:11
worlds, there is no boss in the fifth world, it's fucking
47:13
weird and then in the sixth world
47:15
you're in Montana Max's mansion and each of the
47:17
four bosses you defeat leading up plus
47:20
world five gives you a key and those keys
47:22
all open doors in Monty Max's mansion and so
47:24
you basically just have to get through five quick
47:27
levels and then you have a boss fight against
47:29
Monty and if you beat him, you save Babs
47:32
and the world is over, so that's
47:34
the basic gist of the game, it's
47:36
really like- it's a really charming little
47:38
platformer but it's not exactly the world's
47:41
deepest fucking platforming experience
47:43
or anything so I do want to go over the
47:45
graphics, I do want to go over the controls, I
47:47
do want to go over the music and I want
47:49
to go over some of the various levels but I
47:51
really need a drink of water, doing this by myself
47:54
the old throat gets pretty parched, so let's do- here's
47:56
what we'll do, we'll be- Tiny Toon
47:58
Adventures will be right back after this That works.
48:00
We'll go to a sponsor, then we'll come back and I'll run down the
48:02
rest of the stuff I want to talk about. We'll be right back. Kroger,
48:30
fresh for everyone. Savings may vary by
48:33
state. Restrictions apply. See site for details.
49:00
I was shocked that I beat it when I did. Playing
49:02
it the other day. Cause I could not beat it as
49:04
a kid. And I think what makes it so difficult is
49:06
that you only get one hit. Like,
49:08
if you can find a heart that are in these rare
49:11
bloons, the item boxes, then you get a heart and then
49:13
if you get hit once you lose the heart. And if
49:15
you can hit again, then you die. But
49:17
if you don't have a heart, it's one hit and you're
49:19
done. And everything is trying to fucking kill you. And like,
49:21
wait till I get to talking about fucking World 4. The
49:24
cheapest pile of shit that's ever shit. That level will fuck
49:26
you up. But
49:28
you are, everything is trying to kill you.
49:30
And it's, the game moves and controls really
49:32
well. It's super fluid, super smooth. Not a
49:34
lot of lag or stutter, which was a
49:36
big problem with so many S-Games. But it
49:38
almost like, I was trying to
49:40
explain it while I was streaming it. It's
49:42
kind of almost like playing a platformer on
49:45
ice. Like you really are sliding a lot.
49:47
Everything just feels kinda loose. It's not super
49:49
tight. And some of the hit
49:51
boxes and collision on some of the enemies
49:54
is pretty unforgiving. So, you will die a
49:56
lot. What's nice is that you have infinite
49:58
continues. But every time you continue, Like
50:00
say you die in world 4-3, you're not continuing
50:02
at the beginning of world 4-3, you're going back
50:04
to 4-1. And you have to get back to 4-3 that
50:06
way. But it is infinite continues.
50:08
No passwords, no saves, no nothing. But endless retries.
50:10
So as long as you got the patience to
50:12
sit there and keep chipping away at it, it's
50:14
a pretty beatable game. I think that was part
50:16
of the problem I had as a kid, was
50:18
I just never had that much patience. I would
50:20
get mad and rage quit and go and play
50:23
something that I understood. Something easy, like Mega Man.
50:26
Or something like that instead. So
50:29
it runs well, it controls pretty good, it's
50:32
really smooth, really fast. But it's
50:34
just, I do find it's just, it's
50:36
not... It
50:38
just, it kind of feels like Mario 3 if
50:40
everything was covered in grease. Like it's just a
50:42
little slippery. Can be just a little bit frustrating.
50:45
But I didn't find I was dying a lot
50:47
falling down holes. I was dying from getting hit
50:49
by things. And let's break down the level. So
50:51
world 1, you're just outside, it's basically like your
50:53
tutorial level. You're just running through fields. None of
50:55
the enemies are really all that difficult. The boss
50:57
is pretty simple. What I do find odd though,
50:59
is in the first level of world 1, you're
51:02
outside. The second level of world 1, you're outside.
51:04
Then you escape from Elmira, as you always do
51:06
at the end of the second level. And then
51:08
for some reason the third level is in
51:10
a haunted castle. And I don't quite understand
51:12
why. And the castle itself isn't too too
51:14
hard. But there are a couple of spots
51:16
where it's pretty easy to slip. Or there's
51:18
these like floating ghosts. They're
51:21
like white, like you know someone wearing like a
51:23
white sheet ghost costume. But they have a jack-o'-lantern
51:25
on her head. And they fly around. And sometimes
51:27
you don't know they're above you. And so you'll
51:29
bounce off an enemy and get a bunch of
51:31
air. And then accidentally hit one of these fucking
51:33
jack-o'-lantern ghosts. That's above you. And that's kind of
51:36
infuriating. But it's really not too hard. You'll beat
51:38
world 1 pretty easily. And that's it. Then you
51:40
beat world 1, tra-la-la. Then, and that one surely
51:42
doesn't recommend who to take. Take anybody you want.
51:45
Then in world 2, surely recommends that you take
51:47
Plucky. And there's a reason for
51:49
that. Because world 1 of, or stage 1 of
51:52
world 2 really isn't that big a deal. It's
51:54
just more classic outside platforming. But then level 2
51:56
is underwater. The whole level is on the ground.
52:00
underwater and like I said the other three characters
52:02
don't swim very well whereas plucky is like I'm
52:04
in a frog suit it is it is just
52:06
night and day so you definitely want to use
52:08
use plucky if at all possible and then the
52:11
third the third level of world two is this
52:13
pirate ship anyone that was watching the first night
52:15
I stream this that pirate ship fucking massacred me
52:17
because there's these stupid pirates that just run around
52:19
and they jump they're like they're all like the
52:22
highest jumpers in the world and you never know
52:24
when they're gonna jump and you're kind of falling
52:26
blind because you don't know when they're running around
52:28
underneath you ever some reason there's like wooden barrels
52:31
and if you step on them they hurt you
52:33
even though I don't quite understand why they hurt
52:35
you and then when you get
52:38
to the end of that you fight the pirate it
52:40
gets a little bit more difficult still
52:43
not too too bad I don't want my voice to
52:45
that but still not quite too bad then you get
52:47
into world three where they recommend that you take dizzy
52:50
and the first level again not too too bad but
52:52
the second level of world three is this
52:54
like haunted forest and
52:56
this is to me where the game really starts to
52:58
pick up difficulty because there are multiple paths
53:00
there's sometimes you can fall into a blind
53:02
pit not even knowing there's a blind pit
53:04
there if you have dizzy active you can
53:06
use this tornado spin to break down some
53:08
trees and create a couple of shortcuts to
53:10
get to the level faster but the problem is
53:12
that there's one of those balloons with the bouncy ball
53:15
in it that'll switch you from dizzy back to Buster
53:17
and if you accidentally touch it the only way
53:19
to swap back to dizzy is to die and
53:21
then come back into the level and let that item replenish like
53:23
it would have been again it maybe would have made it
53:25
too easy but it would have been nice you could just
53:27
hit select and swap like that would have been or even
53:30
if you could bank those like ball the swap balls
53:32
until you need to swap instead of just you have
53:34
to find one and touch it and if you accidentally
53:36
touch it and swap out to the other character now
53:39
you're just fucked until you get the good character back
53:41
so that haunted forest can be a little bit of
53:43
a bitch there's these fucking trees that like open
53:45
their mouths and then these bats come flying out
53:47
this hornets nest that when they bark they shoot
53:49
bees at you and that that forest
53:52
can be a little bit of a motherfucker and then
53:54
when you beat the forest which is world 3-2 then you
53:56
get into 3-3 which is like an underground cave is a
53:58
little bit of swimming But they recommend that
54:01
you take Dizzy in there still it's not too too
54:03
bad And then at the end of that cave you
54:05
have to fight the the werewolf That
54:07
is just falling from the sky and you leave a split
54:09
second to jump on him So he runs into this pit
54:12
and then he goes back into the air and falls from the
54:14
sky basically He's just falling disappearing out of the bottom of the
54:16
screen coming out of the top over and over its rupees It's
54:18
not too hard world four is where this game will fuck
54:20
you up, and this is where I always got stuck as
54:22
a kid I don't know if you're at your school. I
54:24
think it is it looks like you're out like a school
54:26
I don't know, but the first level is outside And
54:30
there's two enemies and the two enemies will
54:32
fuck you up There's all these windows in
54:34
the background in this building and
54:36
the windows randomly like dogs Randomly pop up
54:38
in the windows and look around and then
54:40
they whip flower pots at you But there's
54:42
also like stacks of tires and garbage cans
54:44
down on the street level that you have
54:47
to jump over and Cats randomly pop
54:49
out of them and throw tin cans at
54:51
you So there's all these thick contra like
54:53
there's all these projectiles going all over the map
54:55
you have one hit And it's
54:57
not just that the cans and the pots that are being
54:59
thrown at you will kill you if you jump and
55:01
write as a dog Happens to appear in a window
55:03
then the dog kills you if you happen to land
55:05
on a garbage can or a stack of tires Right
55:08
as the cat comes out then it instantly
55:10
kills you as well I died in level
55:13
four one and four two so many fucking
55:15
times They're so cheap because the only way
55:17
to know What windows and what
55:19
stacks of tires and what cans that these dogs and
55:21
cats are gonna pop out of is it is play
55:24
through The level over and over again and memorize where
55:26
they all are and it's pretty precise jumps a couple
55:28
of them to avoid hitting Them when they jump up
55:30
and it didn't find that their projectiles were killing
55:33
me half as much as the goddamn Denimies popping
55:35
out of the windows and just touching you I'm
55:37
trying to jump through the level we're fucking me
55:39
up So they that level drove me to almost
55:41
insane level one four one is fucking tough That's
55:43
the one where they suggest you take furball
55:45
And I don't find furball particularly useful
55:47
in four one or four two in
55:49
four two You're down like a back
55:52
alley and the dogs opening the windows
55:54
are gone But the cats that come out of
55:56
the piles of tires are still popping up and throwing
55:58
random cans at you plus this whole
56:00
place behind you and if you're not
56:02
careful of random places I don't
56:05
know what they are they look like punk rock mice women
56:07
they jump up from behind the fence land on the
56:09
street in front of the fence and then run right
56:11
toward you and if you touch one while they're in
56:14
the air or anything then you die so you're
56:16
watching for these cats that randomly pop out of
56:18
tires and whip cans at you but while you're
56:20
trying to jump over them in their cans if
56:22
you're not careful all of a sudden these fucking
56:24
punk mice rocker girls kick things jump up
56:26
from behind the fence and touch you and they fucking
56:29
kill you to those two levels are so cheap and
56:31
obnoxious they make me insane they're the hardest two levels
56:33
in the game are for one and four two fuck
56:36
there's so the old once you know where
56:38
the enemies are coming from they're not too
56:40
bad but learning and it's just it's there's
56:42
no indicator no nothing think Mario
56:44
when you never know when a piranha plant is
56:47
gonna come out of a pipe except these
56:49
things move way fucking faster and there's no
56:51
forgiveness and you touch one and you die
56:53
oh fuck those two levels and
56:55
then for three you have to climb the inside of
56:57
like a school building and that's where they recommend taking
56:59
fur ball because if you just have to climb up
57:01
with Buster it's so it's doable but it's a little
57:03
bit of a bitch with furball you can skip like
57:06
two-thirds of the level by just clinging to the walls
57:08
on the side of the screen and hopping up them
57:10
and climbing up plus there's a heart at the top
57:12
of world 4-3 before you fight the bus and you
57:14
can only get the heart by climbing up there with
57:16
furball if you're there with anybody else you can't get
57:18
this heart so so you get the heart
57:20
then you fight that 8 that I kept telling about earlier
57:22
that's in the pinball machine that I couldn't beat then
57:24
you get to world 5 and I was expecting world
57:27
5 to be the same as the first four words
57:29
three stages you have to dodge Elmira on the second
57:31
one and fight a boss at the end of the
57:33
third one but world 5 is nothing like
57:35
that I don't know what those creatures are called
57:38
they they look like like dodo birds they kind
57:40
of look like the spy versus spy birds
57:43
or like a rounder face and they're kind of like a teal
57:45
color and they've got the little drink umbrella coming out of
57:47
their head I'm sure some of you know what I'm talking about I
57:49
don't know what that thing's name is you just
57:51
run through the level and they're just randomly like all over
57:53
the place and you just have to pick them up and
57:55
when you collect all of them they form a giant one
57:58
and then that's the end of the world There's
58:00
only one level that's not three. There's no boss
58:02
fight. There's no almira dodging. No nothing That's just
58:04
it then you get your key and you go
58:06
to Monty's mansion and To
58:08
me it felt like they were running running out of
58:10
time before they could release this game And they were
58:12
like fuck it make world five world four No, no
58:15
kids getting past world four if they do that make
58:17
world five easy You just have to collect these little
58:19
dodo birds I don't fucking know and
58:21
then you finally you wrap it up in world six
58:23
which is Monty's mansion And it's only one level again
58:26
But it's like six segments because like I said in
58:28
each of the previous five worlds You've got a key
58:30
when you beat it and now when you're in Monty's
58:32
mansion The first level you're
58:34
just kind of they're very short little quick levels
58:36
in the first level You're just dodging security guards
58:38
that throw knives at you I think well There's
58:40
like a butler up in a balcony above you
58:42
that goes by and randomly turns lights off So
58:45
you can't see where your platforms you're jumping are
58:48
And you just have to get through two or
58:50
three sets of these these bodyguards Then
58:52
you open the door and you into world two worlds who
58:54
are more the same bodyguards But you're just running and sliding
58:56
under spikes and just you don't even deal
58:59
with the bodyguards World three is the
59:01
bitch one you have to go up this elevator
59:03
and while you're going up this elevator There's cannons
59:05
on either side of the elevator shaft shooting bags of
59:07
money at you and some you have to jump over and some
59:09
you Have to duck over and again The only way to really
59:11
know is to just play it a few times and memorize it
59:14
World for that big bodybuilding
59:16
white dog From
59:19
I don't remember what its name was from tiny toons But
59:21
it keeps dropping down from the ceiling and running at you
59:23
really quickly So all you have to do is be ready
59:25
for it and just jump over them a few times and
59:27
then the fifth part of Monty Manchins Monty's mansion nothing can
59:29
kill you You just do a little bit of quick platforming
59:31
and you get to this door and then you fight Monty
59:33
Max And he's in the room where these
59:35
two doors up on balconies and he keeps appearing in one
59:37
And there's these massive boxing gloves on spring arms coming in
59:40
from the sides trying to punch you and all you
59:42
have to do is Basically jump on the boxing glove arm
59:44
get up and jump on max's head and you jump on
59:46
him three times You beat the game and that's it Like
59:49
there's not a lot of replayability Unless you want to
59:51
try with different combos or try to go faster or
59:53
anything infinite continues It's
59:56
just it's just world one two and most of three aren't
59:58
too bad world four will fuck you If
1:00:00
you get by world four world five is of cakewalk, and
1:00:02
then you just have to memorize the mansion and the game is over
1:00:05
So it's it's a neat little game like
1:00:07
it's it's like I'll be honest with you I would
1:00:09
like to add a physical copy of it to my collection I really
1:00:11
don't want to pay more than about I
1:00:14
don't know twenty or thirty dollars for it tops I don't think cuz
1:00:16
it's not like a game You beat it in an hour, and you
1:00:18
have no need to play it anymore But that's a lot of NES
1:00:20
games once you crack the code and figure them out. I'm
1:00:23
shocked We've never gotten like a tiny toons
1:00:25
adventures game collection We've gotten so
1:00:27
many other ones like Ninja Turtles and Jurassic Park
1:00:29
and Contra and Castlevania and all these other ones
1:00:31
I'd love to see a tiny toons collection I
1:00:34
think that'd be fucking sick Because I
1:00:36
really wish more people could play this game because it really
1:00:38
is it'll be a short a solid little
1:00:40
platformer Graphically, I think it looks great. I think
1:00:42
it is frankly one of the better looking games
1:00:44
on the NES Some people
1:00:46
that were coming by my streams Pointed
1:00:49
out that plucky in particular looked kind
1:00:51
of funny, but I like it so
1:00:53
they buster So you know like when you have a I?
1:00:57
Mean any animated character in any of these old
1:00:59
games They basically like the black outline and then
1:01:01
they're filled in you know like the same way
1:01:03
you draw like a cartoon or whatever well Buster
1:01:06
is surrounded by his outline is red plucky's is
1:01:08
green dizzy's is pink and furballs is blue And
1:01:10
I just think it's a really nice looking. I
1:01:12
think it looks really cool I'm a big fan
1:01:14
of the animation some of the enemies look really
1:01:16
really cool All the main characters have these cool
1:01:19
little like When when plucky doesn't
1:01:21
move for too long he starts tapping his foot on
1:01:23
the ground and giving you this like what the fuck look
1:01:25
Little Sonic the Hedgehog s Babs
1:01:27
or but Buster puts his hands behind his
1:01:29
back kind of starts stretching Dizzy tongue just
1:01:32
starts flopping out of his mouth, and he just starts panting I
1:01:34
like some of the little animation some of the enemies look kind
1:01:36
of neat I'll be it kind of stagnant, and
1:01:39
they don't have a lot of animation to them,
1:01:41
but they look cool I think a Myra looks
1:01:43
awesome I think those are some of the highlights
1:01:45
of the game even though they're easy are the
1:01:47
stages where you need to avoid getting caught By
1:01:49
a Myra the bosses all look great Monty max
1:01:51
looks great It's a really sharp looking game and
1:01:53
like I said it runs silky smooth. I don't
1:01:55
want to compare it to Kirby's
1:01:58
adventure because Kirby's Adventure I think
1:02:00
is one of the most ambitious games on the NES
1:02:03
but they came out around the same time in
1:02:05
the later end of the NES's lifespan and Kirby's
1:02:08
Adventure fucking chugs now Kirby's Adventure has three save
1:02:10
files on it eight worlds or whatever the fuck
1:02:12
Kirby's Adventure a much much bigger game That's just
1:02:14
the point I'm trying to make Mega Man 6
1:02:16
chugs a little bit too good-looking game chugs
1:02:19
a little bit on the NES This game runs very very
1:02:21
smooth for a game that came in toward the end I
1:02:24
mean I'd hear the argument that the reason it runs
1:02:26
so smooth is because it's so short and there's really
1:02:28
not even a ton of enemies In it like minus
1:02:31
the fucking world for where those things are
1:02:33
throwing pots and fucking games at you Can
1:02:35
just eat my whole ass fuck I hate
1:02:37
that fucking level but the game runs
1:02:39
really well the music is good the problem
1:02:41
is and you all heard it off
1:02:43
the top They have the
1:02:45
like chiptune version of the tiny toon theme but
1:02:48
unlike Chippendale and DuckTales and some of the
1:02:50
other ones This one's a
1:02:52
little bit shorter and they play it
1:02:54
on repeat It only in some levels in some
1:02:57
in the levels that aren't playing the
1:02:59
tiny toons adventure theme The it they're pretty solid like
1:03:01
you've heard you just heard one of them You can
1:03:03
hear the boss team here in a few more minutes
1:03:06
The music is really good But in the
1:03:08
few levels where it just plays that fucking
1:03:10
tiny toon adventures song on loop The
1:03:12
thing only goes for about 20 seconds and then it starts
1:03:14
over again And it gets really like
1:03:16
it gets old fast and some people pointed out that
1:03:19
when you're in levels where you're dying over and over
1:03:21
again, and that song just keeps playing oh It
1:03:24
gets to the point where you're like, yeah, I'm muting
1:03:26
the television. I can't fucking listen to this anymore Oh,
1:03:28
just fucking just got So
1:03:32
the music is good could be
1:03:35
better But overall I think they
1:03:37
do a great job of capturing kind of the feeling of
1:03:39
the show It's just really cartoony bright easy to
1:03:41
look at nice to listen to fun
1:03:43
to play Solid little platformer
1:03:46
trying to think there's anything else I wanted to talk about we touched
1:03:48
on every level We touched on all
1:03:50
the characters. I touched on the controls. I touched on
1:03:52
the music Like there's not
1:03:54
a lot of meat to the bone. I could kind
1:03:56
of use a password system or something But again, it's
1:03:58
only an hour long and if you're You're a kid and you've
1:04:00
got enough patience. Like I could have beaten this as
1:04:03
a kid. Problem is I would get to world four
1:04:05
and get stuck on that fucking level where they're all
1:04:07
throwing the goddamn cans and pots at me and eventually
1:04:09
I would just rage quit. Cause the problem is when
1:04:11
you continue, you start out with three lives and each
1:04:13
of those three lives you have one hit until you
1:04:15
can find a heart. And there's no heart for quite
1:04:18
a while in that first level of world four where
1:04:20
they're throwing all this stuff at you. So like I
1:04:22
was literally going through a continue in about eight seconds.
1:04:25
Like one, two, three, and then it was
1:04:27
back to reloading my continue. And then continue
1:04:29
again and then continue again. Like it just
1:04:31
fucked me up over and
1:04:33
over and over again. That fucking level
1:04:35
makes me fucking crazy. Ah,
1:04:38
God. I'm just
1:04:40
trying to think. I'm actually going to bring up
1:04:42
the Wikipedia page. I don't, I
1:04:44
know this was a little bit shorter episode, but I
1:04:46
don't really think there's any, like I think I've literally
1:04:48
covered this entire game. It's
1:04:51
a good game. It's fun. It came out
1:04:53
in 91. It's by Konami. It's a
1:04:55
solid little game. Yeah. I think of the
1:04:57
six levels. Uh,
1:04:59
Duck, Duck Vader is the name of that,
1:05:01
that Darth Vader thing. Duck, Duck Vader shows
1:05:03
up. That's even the Wikipedia page
1:05:06
is like two paragraphs. Like
1:05:08
there's just not a lot of meat on
1:05:10
this bone. This one, our Patreon poll, I'm glad it did.
1:05:12
I'm glad people love it, but it just, there's not a
1:05:15
lot of meat on the bone in this game. It is
1:05:17
very quick. Beat it in an hour. You're done.
1:05:20
Solid game. They didn't just cash in
1:05:22
on the name like they could have. Like some
1:05:24
other fucking developers did back, including Konami back
1:05:26
in this day. It's a pretty solid little platformer.
1:05:28
I like it. Um, is it
1:05:31
my favorite tiny toon game? I'll say yes,
1:05:33
but that's only because the only other tiny
1:05:35
toon game that I've played at all
1:05:37
is Buster busts loose on the SDS and
1:05:39
I've only played it once or twice. We
1:05:41
rented it once or twice. I remember liking it,
1:05:43
but I really don't know it well enough to give
1:05:46
it like a, you know, all that game. I'm
1:05:48
sure it's better than this. I hear all of you
1:05:50
people were coming by my streams being like, why are
1:05:52
you playing this? You should be playing Buster busts loose.
1:05:54
And I'm like, well, first of all, I want to
1:05:56
play this second of all, Buster busts loose didn't win
1:05:58
the Patreon poll. That's why
1:06:01
I'm playing this but I will
1:06:03
cover bust-a-bust loose at some point I also
1:06:05
really like to try this tiny tunes treasure
1:06:07
hunter game on the Genesis I just I
1:06:09
genuinely like the tiny tunes like I As
1:06:13
a kid I liked them better than looney tunes. I
1:06:15
just think they look cool They're colorful there. They're
1:06:17
you know, they're tiny the toonie. They're a
1:06:19
little looney That
1:06:21
was kind of lame, but I like them. I like
1:06:24
the tidy toon. I will cover more of these games
1:06:26
moving forward. I promise I Think
1:06:29
I'm done. I think that's really the that's
1:06:31
it. That's it. There's not a lot else There's
1:06:34
not a lot else to this fucking game for
1:06:36
me to talk about as far as slapping a
1:06:38
score on this thing Uh,
1:06:41
I mean, I guess I could go there's six
1:06:43
worlds Well, how many levels are
1:06:45
there though? There's three in world one three and world two
1:06:47
three and world three three and world four So that's twelve
1:06:50
and then one in world five is
1:06:52
13 And then if you count
1:06:54
every room in Monty's mansion, then you have 14 15 16 17 18 19 So
1:06:59
it's scored out of 19 different levels that you
1:07:01
play in the game Hmm
1:07:05
I Really
1:07:08
have no qualms with it from a quality
1:07:10
point The one the one
1:07:13
issue that I have with it. I think is that it's just
1:07:15
it's short It's short and there's not a lot to
1:07:17
it. And if you got good enough to beat it as a kid Like
1:07:21
it's less than an hour and you're done, you know The
1:07:24
it's just that they I feel like they put world four in there to
1:07:26
stop you from beating it in an hour fuck world
1:07:28
four I'll
1:07:30
give it a You
1:07:33
know what I'll give it a 15 out of 19 by any standards This
1:07:37
is one of the I think this is one
1:07:39
of the better platformers and that's my that's my
1:07:41
wheelhouse I love platforming games. I think it's one
1:07:43
of the platformers on the NES I think it's
1:07:45
one of the better license games on
1:07:47
the NES and frankly, I would say it's probably in
1:07:50
my top Might
1:07:54
make my top 30 their top 30 top
1:07:56
35 any ask it's a solid title and
1:07:59
it frustrates me It's never been made available
1:08:01
anywhere else. I really just putting it
1:08:03
under the universe because I seem to have this audibility The
1:08:05
wish things into existence give us a
1:08:08
tiny to his game compilation package, please
1:08:10
Give me this give me Buster bus loose Give
1:08:12
me the treasure hunter one from the Genesis give
1:08:15
me tiny to an adventures to for the NES
1:08:17
which I've never played But I remember
1:08:19
seeing an advertisement for it all the time at Archie comics
1:08:21
when I was a kid And I always thought it looked
1:08:23
cool Give me Babs big break from the
1:08:25
game But just give me all the game all the tiny toon
1:08:27
