"Pure GREATNESS" dude! I think i've mentioned awhile back, i'm using your MD shmup collection as reference for my own official Jp shmup collection too. Do you have every vert'/hori' title now mate? Keep up the good work Ben! :D
@MENDEZ1628 cheers bro i thought of you and how you'd 'dig' this vid as i filmed..glad you liked :D
As for the collection, i only need Eliminate Down and i've had fun fund-raising for it through selling mainly rare pal SMS games and have raised a good whack so far so keep watchin bro :)
Cool vid dude, I'm working on my top 10 shmup cover vid at the moment. This is my opportunity to congratulate you on your amazing channel, I always see something interesting and new in most of your vids. Here's to another year
Some great box art there. I probably would have slipped Panorama Cotton in there too. Also, Did you say that Eliminate Down was the last shmup you needed to get for the Mega Drive? How did you get hold of Uzu Keobukseon? It seems impossible to find.
@SanshinOfStirling yeah i can see the merit of the Panorama Cotton artwork but it's not really my thing. As for ED im working on it. I am tattempting to finance buying the game by selling duplicates/ selling soughtafter pal games overseas etc..and its coming along nicely (watch this space). And yes, the artwork is amazing on it and it would definitely be in here.
You have quite the taste in games. I've always said that. You've kept your collection tidy and gone after only what you wanted.
But I'll also say you are chummy honest confident and whole hearted while talking about and sharing games. And it has been a sharing experience. It's always a pleasure catching your videos this year.
Except that one time with that tranny super nes. That was weird. You better go to the doctor. I hope nothing of your falls off your body.
@fakeplasticball so you're the one who thumbed down the sega vs nintendo thing lol
n the only thing tht wil be 'falling of my body' would be tears of laughter at the state of that poor snes hehe ;) All jokes aside, you know i love the snes..in fact i was getting my arse handed to me by the amazing R-Type 3 lastnight *ponders how cool the artwork would've been on the MD if it had a r-type game*
cheer man, i always enjoy your witting sense of humor and unique and astute opinion/insight into games
@monkeycrow84 cheers and i may keep the music 'under wraps' for the meantime coz it's a 2010 release , my pick for the year and intend to do a review soon. cheers.
@cyanidebreathmintz cant wait for that review then, really loving this tune, ive watched ur video like 10 times just so i can listen to it. seriously review cant come quick enough lol
Thanks for all the hard work your putting in for some of us hardcore fans of video games. I watch all your videos love how you emphasize the art of the games, because it plays a huge role for me as a fan.
Gotta love the tunage playing in the background! *hint hint* ^_^
Haha! Congrats on your 1 year anniversary on Youtube! I believe that one of these days you will garner a partnership with Youtube. It is only a matter of time!
@segagenesis1989 Ah-ah, well i plan to do a recommendation/review of this album coz it's a 2010 release that i've waited ages to arrive from the U.S but it takes 'favourite album of the year' for me! I'll make you sweat a bit and i'll post a vid soon ;)
And thanks heaps man, you've a constant support for me and always value your input and of course taste in music and great sense of humor :)
Ah! I was just going to suggest that you begin doing some album reviews as a feature of your channel! I am sure alot of listeners would enjoy it alot.
It is my pleasure to support your channel. Kudos to you for providing the material! It it was not for your channel, the world would be a little less interesting! =P
1 year, passed so quickly eh. Great video mate- little wonder we fall in love with the JP MD artwork when you see some of the amazing examples. You convinced me to keep Verytex after watching this also ;-)
@ianwilson1978 yeah mate, only seems like yesterday i nervously stuttered my way through my first vid with a sweaty brow (actually that does sound like yesterday's vid lol)..and then to wake to a deluge of support from your shoutout good sir!
You my man, hands-down, were the person who made me want to make vids..through both you passion for the MD but also from your support and acknowledgement of myself for that period i didnt make vids. Thanks bro!
@cyanidebreathmintz That was nice of you to say mate! You always supported my videos with comments etc... and I could tell you were really passionate about the MD also.
Your channel has some great support now and like I've said before it's always good to watch videos from such a positive person.
Cant wait until you get Eliminate Down, like I've said shooters arent my favourite genre but the cover art is amazing. ?Best wishes from the UK! :)
Happy first year anniversary man ;-) That was a fine selection of cover art. Tatsujin is a particular fave of mine. You just can't beat the JPN releases on the MegaDrive for art and presentation. Great stuff
@TigonVLiger cheers man!.. indeed there is awesome art and am looking forward to sifting through your channel alot more since my attention will b turning to the ol Saturn. ;)
Hey Ben, I know i'm a little late to ask this question, but do you know the name of the first song please? cheers!
