The Oregon Trail

Video

The Apple ][ classic! Based on a true story! Kind of!

Warning: audio levels are a bit uneven, so keep one finger on the volume control.

Playlist:

Part 1: Can the Player, the Doodlr, the Sister, Sirwats, and a square cat make it all the way to the Willamette Valley?

Part 2: We travel with dwarves and Jimmy crackin’ corn, endure slow-moving rivers and ear-splitting tunes, and give all our clothes to Indians. At least the wagon doesn’t explode again.

Mario Kart 64

Video

Good idea: playing Mario Kart 64 with some friends (namely, The Puppeteer and The Red Flapper).

Bad idea: playing Mario Kart 64 with a D-Pad that doesn’t let you steer correctly.

GREAT idea: playing Mario Kart 64 with *four* D-Pads that don’t let *any* of you steer correctly.

Note: For some reason none of the game audio was recorded. Therefore, I put some background music in the video, mostly either from official Mario soundtracks or remixes from ocremix.org.

Chrono Trigger: Great RPG? Or the greatest RPG?

See the doodles!

Part 43, featuring The Player’s niece: Time-Traveling 12-Year-Old Lucca! Also, Magus kills off a trio of rock legends!

Part 44: Krang’s robot suit has seen better days. Also, ramen hatred.

Part 45: After Lucca goes back in time to try to save her mother’s legs, The Player goes back in time because he screwed up the sequence!

Part 46: Giving jerky to the mayor somehow inadvertently kills everyone in the sequel (spoilers?). But at least Lucca gets a better gun.

Is the statue a man or a woman? Vote now!

Part 47: Pouring soda pop on some guy’s grave leads to underground dinosaurs. It doesn’t make much more sense in context.

Part 48, featuring a trial that really makes no sense. Law and Order this ain’t. At least a princess jumps through a stained-glass window.

Part 49: Where do robots come from? You’ll probably have to wait a few months to find out. Or go play the game yourself or something.

NBA Jam for the SNES

Video

Have you ever seen a thirtysomething guy who loves basketball, another thirtysomething guy who doesn’t really care about basketball, and a twelve-year-old girl who barely knows anything about basketball all play a Super Nintendo basketball game together?

Part 1: Utah vs. Atlanta, featuring special guest star Time-Traveling 12-year-old Lucca. Will John Stockton out-dunk Dominique Wilkins?

Part 2: Cleveland vs. New York. Witness the raw power and awesomeness of some guy missing a bunch of layups!

Mario Party 2: Pirate Land

Video

See the doodles!

Arr! We be pirates with The Puppeteer and the Red Flapper once again in Pirate Land in Mario Party 2!

Note: For some reason none of the game audio was recorded. Therefore, I put some background music in the video, mostly either from official Mario soundtracks or remixes from ocremix.org.

Playlist (video 6):

Part 1: We be pirates, suckers!

Part 2: A dinosaur attempts psychological manipulation, and a puppet who’s not a frog appears! (Also the frog puppet appears.)

Part 3: The Princess and the Fat Buttface: The Musical! Featuring the hit songs “Baby Monkey is Running Away from Bees” and “The Bank Has a Golden Butt.” Look, things happen in this game.

Part 4: The game is a lot closer than last time, but, in the end, who has rolled out enough barrels to defeat Cap’n Bowser?
