That Transformers review was great! Plenty of laughs and chuckles in that one.

ive played the 2600 and master system versions of the game, the 2600 version is interesting the same way any complex game for the 2600 is. most complex 2600 games arent very playable or fun, but are fun to dissect and compare and contrast to other ports.

the master system version was a more polished version of the often criticized NES version, the core gameplay is ok. not fantastic, but hardly the worst ever

[Zap!]

Are you perhaps referring to the TMNT Stage 3 music?

No, I never played that game. I'm going to have to look through my list and figure it out. It starts playing at around 3:45 and plays until over 4:05.

Metroid maybe? Blaster Master?

[joshnickerson]

It's the Brinstar music from the NES Metroid.

[newcoleco]

Wait... wait... wait... there is at least one another Transformers game for the Commodore 64 which is much more visual and pretty cool to play... if you don't die too often. Beside that, nice review!

The latest review was great! It had a little shinnanigans at the end, but it was well done

Good video. Very classic style nerd review.

[Therealqtip]

The game at :38 (the pacifier) is from A52, along with :45 (that pink thing)

Okay so two games, not a lot, I was a bit wrong.

No I think there were more.

[guitargary75]

I hated those games.

[Ryaan1234]

No I think there were more.

Not only are there Action 52 games at 0:38 and 0:45, there's one at 0:19 (Rocket cowboy I think?), another one at 0:37 (With the Lizard, I can't remember the name), and 0:44 (called "Sombreros").

5 Action 52 games total BTW.

I pointed out 5 games from Action 52 already, just in case you didn't notice.

One of the great mysteries is how short sighted Hasbro was in not getting Transformers into a console game in the USA.

Mario is Missing/Mario's time machine

Eh. seems like he made this one a little half assed.

[Famidrive-16]

I think it's kinda hard to make that much fun of Mario is Missing! Aside from the initial gimmick and some smaller details there's not much else about it, it's just boring. I did laugh at the King Kong part though.

Mario's Time Machine deserved so much more though, the SNES version was a nightmare to me as a kid, having not taken much of history yet at the time and being stuck in the surfing level FOREVER.

Yeah, the games themselves are far more interesting than his dissection of them. No real creative scenes of James on tape, just a bunch of narration and some bookends. It seems like he's spreading himself a bit thin just trying to cover so many mediums week by week. The old AVGN totally would have put the games into a time machine and sent them back in time to a pile of shit or something scatological, at least.

[Nesmaster]

Surprising he hasn't done Action 52 yet... He should have like a half hour special on that where he plays each and every game on the cart.

If he ever decides to quit the series, the last episode should be where he gets so mad playing Action 52 (or ET) that he kills himself.

He -already- did ET, didn't he?

I think Big Rigs would be a fantastic conclusion. Its worse than E.T.

[Famidrive-16]

Nope, closest was in a halloween episode where he looked at it on the shelf, shook his head, and moved on.
