7:30 PMScottyJayMan​I just got the RE4/5/6 PS4 bundle. Never played 6 , now I’m worried

7:33 PMScottyJayMan​It’s sounding like a Gears of War clone.

7:40 PMlittlegittel​So, will you make a new intro for the video for those not watching now?

7:40 PM13Ucube​better late than never.

7:42 PM13Ucube​i don’t even know what system Mother 3 was on

7:43 PMTrey Ahzze​GBA had Mother 3..i think

7:44 PMScottyJayMan​It does come with an extra controller

7:45 PM13Ucube​so 79.99 or the scalper conversion. 189.99 plus 8 shipping

7:46 PM13Ucube​rocketbelt kicks but

7:46 PM13Ucube​t

7:47 PMScottyJayMan​Super Mario all stars would have been awesome

7:49 PMeathdemon​-I think square wanted too much for crono trigger

7:49 PMScottyJayMan​To be fair, the whole USA SNES looks bad, so it’s keeping in line with the theme 

7:50 PMScottyJayMan​JPN/PAL for life!

7:50 PMlittlegittel​Are there extension cords for controllers?

7:50 PM13Ucube​the burned me once with the nes classic. but this time, i’m just going to watch them go.

7:51 PMTrey Ahzze​if you dont get your hands on SNES Mini…will you feel robbed…like someone robbed you of your childhood?

7:51 PM13Ucube​I went to walmart. they don’t even have a sticker slot for the switch

7:51 PMTrey Ahzze​i hear that..lol

7:51 PMlittlegittel​Especially cuz tvs are bigger now, you NEED to be further away

7:51 PMeathdemon​apparently Nintendo is competing for resources for the switch with apple, samsong ect

7:52 PMIcySon55​woo, how’s it going Andrew!

7:53 PMScottyJayMan​I was quite surprised that EB games Australia had the preorder page up for a full day before it sold out. Nes Classic was in minutes.

7:55 PMTrey Ahzze​I see Switches in the area here, Best Buy, Walmart and

7:55 PMTrey Ahzze​GameStop

7:55 PM13Ucube​chances of Star Fox 2 releasing on Switch Virtual Console in like a year or something

7:56 PMScottyJayMan​I’m just glad they are releasing the original Yoshis island. I think this is the first time Super FX games have been rereleased.

7:57 PMIcySon55​oh yes I was…

7:58 PMIcySon55​that is so true…

7:59 PMeathdemon​ofcourse its them, not enough lead time before they started selling them

7:59 PM13Ucube​What’s not impossible to find?? Millions of Nintendo fans that Can’t Find Their SHIT

7:59 PMTrey Ahzze​New Mexico

8:01 PMTrey Ahzze​not excited about the SNES mini…

8:02 PM13Ucube​Andrew’s not much of a collector *glances over his shoulders*

8:02 PMlittlegittel​Haha

8:02 PMScottyJayMan​I guess for a lot of people, they grew up with renting these games so jump at the chance to own them.

8:03 PMeathdemon​some roumers hint at them not making a huge margin off of the nes mini becouse of lcost of games

8:03 PMlittlegittel​Or they sold them in a garage sale long ago

8:03 PMIcySon55​did you get around to finishing that guide I sent you?

8:03 PM13Ucube​Did you think the re release of dragon warrior 4 on DS was worth buying? I know you don’t like handhelds, but personally. WOW, the upgrades where pretty awesome

8:05 PMIcySon55​usually, if I can manage to sell the older copy to someone, I’ll grab the updated game if there’s nothing new other than an upres/uptexture

8:06 PMScottyJayMan​Do you Have earthbound?

8:08 PMScottyJayMan​Sorry Earthbound Physical cart?

8:08 PM13Ucube​hahah

8:10 PMTrey Ahzze​I had tons of SNES game, but sold them on Ebay..just left with sports games

8:11 PMIcySon55​my sister managed to grab the Earthbound cart by itself

8:11 PMIcySon55​and then also found the box and manual separetly

8:12 PMIcySon55​how about an NES Classic with a cart slot? that would sell, like a shit-ton

8:12 PMTrey Ahzze​they’re doing the GBA Classic

8:12 PMScottyJayMan​I’m waiting for the N64 Classic with Doom 64 packed in

8:13 PMlittlegittel​I. Loved. Goldeneye!!

8:13 PM13Ucube​Nintendo will almost release a Gamecube Classic edition, but then they will discontinue it after the press release

8:14 PMlittlegittel​Goldeneye took me away from studying in college. Oops

8:14 PMlittlegittel​But only the competitive mode when you shoot your friends

8:15 PM13Ucube​It will look like SP but without clamshell
