Classic video game live streams plus Prohibition-busting libations, because they're two great things that go great together. At least up until the point where the effects of the libations interfere with playing the games. It's not always going to be gin, and it will frequently be something other than Nintendo, but despite the potential misnomer a good time should be had by all. (KIDS: Don't try this at home! Unless you're of legal drinking age in your territory.)
A test stream! With Gintendo (that's gin + Nintendo) I intend to play through classic games while musing over different types of adult beverages. (Children, don't try this at home.) Today's picks: ...
Jeremy takes on the first two worlds of the extraordinary Game Boy classic Donkey Kong and, as one viewer said, pretty much brute-forces his way past a bunch of puzzles with platforming shenanigans...
On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, let's revisit the game... in Japanese, with all the weird music and sound effects and sprites that entails! Liquor accomp...
Let's kill some ACTUAL Nazis with Chris Covell's ROM hack of Bionic Commando, which stops mincing words about the al-right and straight-up lets you shoot Hitler. Gin of choice: Greenhook Ginsmiths'...
In honor of the recent passing of video game legend Masaya Nakamura, let's play some classic Namco games. We'll kick off with Rolling Thunder for NES, and who knows where we'll go from there? Featu...
Welcome to the Hell House! Jeremy picks up Castlevania on a spur-of-the-moment whim and somehow plays through the whole danged game!? (Note: about 50% of this stream involves struggling through the...
Jeremy has returned from Japan with a blank cart full of unknown Game Boy games and a bottle full of Japanese gin. Drop in and watch the mysteries unfold!
The march of Castlevania continues with the first sequel: Castlevania II (or rather, Dracula II) for Famicom Disk System. Unless my Disk System acts up, in which case it'll be Castlevania II for NES.
Check out a cheap (as in inexpensive) 16-bit puzzle game and the crazy add-on mini-cartridge it comes with. (That's "sah-meh gah-meh," not "same game.") Blob-matching ahoy!
Let's take a mulligan on yesterday's disastrous stream by trying something a little more in my wheelhouse. Let's journey to find the Wind Fish in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening!
Gintendo's back, baby! And this time, I'm going to compare and contrast the same game from across two different regions. But not one of the games people normally talk about, like Castlevania III. N...
Will we ever get the Seiken Densetsu Collection in America? Who knows! But at least we can go back and play the origin of the Mana series on Super Game Boy. Join me and have a drink as we lament th...
Video retrospectives on the 30 games to appear on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in its first calendar year in the U.S., explored in chronological order.
Yet another game by TOSE and Bandai based on a Japanese manga and anime property. Oh noooo! But wait. Ninja Kid is actually... kinda good? Like, legit fun in an old-school arcade sort of way, with ...
The NES gets its third third-party title, its second wrestling game, and yet another trash fire to burn away into the night. This may be the worst NES release yet thanks to its bizarre and poorly h...
The NES's second third-party release came to us courtesy of the same companies behind M.U.S.C.L.E., but thankfully it wasn't quite so dire. It's certainly not great, but there seems to have been a ...
The NES gets its very first game from a third-party publisher, and... it really makes you pine for relative classics like Urban Champion and Stack-Up. TOSE and Bandai assault the sense with this va...
In preparation for an upcoming Retronauts episode, I'm finally playing the third entry in the Mana franchise: Seiken Densetsu 3. This is Neil Corlett's English-language fan translation burned to a ...
It's still Castlevania's 30th anniversary. Let's call the Castlevania II project a loss and move along to a game that streams much better than that meandering mess: The sequel, Castlevania III. I'l...
While far from perfect (check out that abominable frame rate!), this adaptation of Capcom's popular platformer based on Disney's DuckTales cartoon is without question the best NES-to-Game Boy conve...
Wrapping up Game Boy Works' solid month of sports titles, we have the most leisurely of the bunch: Data East's Side Pocket. Despite lacking a few features found in other ports of the game, this is ...
The Disney Afternoon Collection is great and all, but it sadly skipped over the best version of the original DuckTales. That's right: The Game Boy version. Let's rewrite history… together.
In-depth explorations of Nintendo's 1985 NES lineup, in the order in which the games were originally released in Japan (before the system came to the U.S.).
