[@fab1604]

***** ESPECIALLY "You know what's bullshit"

[@fab1604]

***** I know, and it's awesome

[@deadarchive7737]

We still do.

[@SoulFoxie]

Packaging you need scissors to open,even with the scissors its tough,I especially love when you get scissors and need scissors to open the scissors. Packaging like this is bullshit

[@jamesesterline]

@@SoulFoxie thanks bullshit man

[@Borednesss]

I left the little metal ball sitting out in the sunlight and burned my hand picking it up once.. that's about all I remember of this game =\

[@Ksimba718]

🤣🤣🤣sorry for the pain. But I also chuckled because I thought about how everyone would lose the ball.

[@smasher3397]

“Just crank that shit!” 😂 Also the version that I had growing up had two silver marbles instead of that big yellow one.

[@kathryncarey2794]

I used to play this with my backyard neighbors. There were 4 daughters (all of which babysat for us). Thank God! They set it up appropriately as you played...silver balls for the older version.

[@myglorioushog]

I remember this game so well. And yes I never played the game, I just cranked that shit. I could sit there for hours just watching the trap. Great memories from my youth. Thanks again james. You rock.

[@bradybrotherton367]

I've always loved these episodes of Board James, I find it just as fun to watch just like the Avgn.

[@Palafox111]

You guys remember when board James made a appearance in AVGN XD

[@enzoTHEferrari]

That was like... 2 episodes ago...

[@mansonitefrank8887]

Lolololololoo wat the fuck am I laughing at?

[@HaloReach242]

i forgot there was a actual board game behind this

[@JimmyP703]

WOW! Your just like me. I love rocky, NES, SNES, SEGA GENESIS, etc. Also I own Mouse Trap. My name is also James. The only thing is that I'm a teenager. I love your videos James.

[@DaveDexterMusic]

I remember having to board at school over a weekend. Choice of playing football with the other kids or sitting alone cranking this shit. I chose to crank, and as a mid-30s man with almost no friends I stand by that decision

[@CHodeslol]

Oh my god when you said "Look at this guy whoooooo" I completely lost it, thank you for the quality entertainment James!

[@athens31415]

It's basically a Rube Goldberg machine with a board game for kids. So cool!

[@LoganWilson]

I remember I got this game when I was a kid but one little piece of the trap wasn't in the box when I got it for some reason so the trap didn't work and I never played it once lol

[@chrisredditch]

I wanted this so much and got it for Christms 1968! Happy Days

[@ninjanicktf9768]

My grandmother actually used to have this game, I have no memory of playing it as it was intended by I did love messing with the trap.

[@FelipeSparx29]

omg soooo hilarious the way you explain things!!!!!

[@kevinhwsohn]

James you should bring Board James and Bullshit man back!

[@Gingy_2006]

Well you know what's BS is back

[@Canma890]

Thanks for adding me !

[@Schmidteren]

I'LL TAKE 8

[@redchojnowski7159]

Man. I had fun with this game for hours. I had a dream one night I was at Marine Boot Camp Basic Training, and I played this game with other recruits. The Senior Drill Instructor yelled and screamed: "WHAT THE SHIT ARE YOU DOING, PLAYING A GAME?!!!!!!!" I responded: "NO. We ARE CRANKING THAT SHIT, SIR!" I really miss this game AND that dream was super fun.

[@McDumDum]

2009? Has it really been that long?

[@Mouzhappy]

time sure do fly, i remember watching this for the first time when it first came out T -T

[@flintfrommother3gaming]

2013? Has it really been that long?

[@captainthrall]

i love the opening music in this video. also, the artwork in the end looks great - good job MF mike! i used to play mousetrap when i was a kid, and this video brought back some pleasant memories. i used to always crank the trap when i wasnt supposed to, and my sisters would yell at me.

[@DrewPicklesTheDark]

"Want to paly Mouse Trap?" "Yeah let's set up that trap!" Can confirm this was the proper way to play.

[@ZazzyZman]

I can relate when I was 6 playing this thing I have never once attempted to play the game once

[@ZazzyZman]

+correa81 fuck outta here

[@oldscoolgaming6700]

I wanted to play Mouse Trap. You roll your dice, you move your mice. Nobody gets hurt.

[@KohlDayvhis]

As a kid, I always lost the metallic balls so I never had the proper ones, I always had to substitute them with marbles or something but they never worked properly, it was so disappointing

[@mansonitefrank8887]

In the newer version it works fine with anything but I still prefer the metallic balls

[@SuperMandibleclaw]

The thing i remember about mouse trap is the man on the seesaw not working

[@jasminnemcdonald94A]

I wish there were more board games like this.

[@ButtersTV1]

Please make a Review of Silent Service on the NES.

[@mogs9999]

Just got mouse trap for the kids , the mouse trap is almost the same , but they added a mechanism to lift the marble up to the bathtub rather than using 2 balls.

[@OuterGalaxyLounge]

Yep. You came up with the truth bomb right away. No kid ever fucked around with the actual game.

[@robertcherman]

I bet everyone had their only little problem with this game. The 3 different sets of this game I have played, after the marble would go down the squiggly line and hit the stick with the hand holding the next marble, that would fall in the tub, wouldn't work all the time. That became part of the game play. You had one chance to crank the wheel, and if any of the trap messed up, or your mouse was not in the cage, you didn't get another turn. The trap had to work, and actually catch the mouse. I have newer version now, and it has the same exact pieces, but the new newer ones, are similar but way different.

[@ListieShadows]

I think me and my family were the only people to ever actually play the board and not just build the trap.

[@alexk9642]

i have the new hasbro one with all the animals... we actually played the game sometimes but mostly just had fun with the trap

[@codmad1000]

I remember one where there's a toilet that has little balls in it and then they go around and each outcome of the toilet brings a different outcome and depending on which one you land on sets where you start

[@bottlecapbill19]

Just turn the crank and snap the plank that boots the ball right down the shoot now watch it roll and hit the poll that knocks the ball in the rub-a-dub tub that hits the man into the pan the trap is set HERE COMES THE NET! WOW!.... That's right, I remembered that commercial's little jingle. My childhood was great.

[@TheXtro101]

I remember seeing the commericals on tv for this board game back during the mid 1980's and was on my list to get when I was a kid.

[@harmlesspanda5467]

Pretty glad they did this one, I used to play this all the time with my cousins when they came to my grans house

[@ColorlessTune]

It's a Rube Goldberg Machine.

[@therealdomingo]

I had this game. Was my childhood

[@Smurfman256]

I had this as a kid. NEVER learned how to play it. I just said "Fuck it, I wanna see this thing go!"

[@akiecuenca9798]

I dunno why but i find James videos extremely relaxing.Just kick back with a couple sodas and chips and watch AVGN,BoardJames or Monster Madness.

[@CarfDarko]

01:30 in a flash of a second i misread the message on the box, thinking it said that the game requirements are a mouse and keyboard...

[@wikilover66]

All the fun of this game was setting it up

[@fatboymig1]

We never got ours to work... We always ended up playing Sorry!

[@RayInTheCity]

finally someone showing it actually working

[@ancientgearmaster1]

Never really played it

[@gaaralee1234]

I guess James wasn't kidding when he said we wanted to clean up his videos [I mean, I knew at the time it was a star wars joke, but went through with it anyway]

[@nobel11]

Mousetrap was my favorite playset for my Ninja Turtles!

[@mansonitefrank8887]

Lol

[@EpicBronyCOD]

dude i was about five or six when i first played that board game. and when you said you just wanted to build the trap and watch it go. i was the same way. im 14 niw and i still love this game

[@jonathanbeshansky4932]

I remember playing this game as a kid and having it.

[@influencehistory8879]

We need more Board James.

[@only257]

use to play this game when i was nine in 1993 at summer camp and at my aunt's house it was a lot of fun to play

[@Eskmm1]

wait, this is a board game?

[@ivanprime93]

I always wanted this game.

[@jtomally9681]

Can someone tell me what the name of the music is in the beginning of this video?

[@kargaroc386]

It wasn't even called Board James yet in this episode

[@BlackPopeye44]

He is so right all I wanted to do is see the trap go. CRANK THAT SHIT!!!!!

[@ViperJay5]

I had this game as a child and like you, I never played the actual game and instead just played with the mouse trap device. LOL

[@chrismclaughlin563]

I had this as a kid and never had any problems putting it together. I don't think we ever played it correctly though. Lol

[@JoeFpoc]

i remember getting really good at setting up that trap and could do it very quickly. also i remember that stupid cage getting stuck halfway down a lot

[@TechHowden]

So I’m not the only one that knows this game exists

[@tjclews]

I have a mouse trap game but it has a toilet on a tower that triggers 3 marbles to activate 3 traps a sweeper a flinging toy box and the classic cage there is also on the tower art the green man from the original game also Mr potato head is there too

[@pattharatidaputthasee2451]

Old toy are greater than new battery operated toy

[@cujobo]

"just crank that shit"

[@BlizzleCham]

Hahaha.. Rad and totally tubular dude!!

[@surfthestreets86]

I remember my friend had the game and the trap that goes down always got jamed and stuck

[@TehCacti]

I got that game but I lost all the pieces before I could even play

[@Jaco927]

2:09 "Who wants to play the game? Just crank that shit!" Pretty much sums up the game.

[@useful76]

I never played the game. Only once did I get the thing to work. One of the weirdest ideas ever for a board game which is why it's so memorable.

[@jacob60617]

Had this game

[@maddogkilla84]

Do fraggin ATMOSPHERE

[@TeleKamptiA]

I grew up with the newer version

[@BrandonWithrow]

Love this.

[@rajvader]

There was a game? We just put together that Rube Goldberg tram and tried to get it to work.

[@mauriciolizarbe4835]

i remember watching this when i was a boy

[@macethorns1168]

They rereleased this game and it's missing a lot of pieces to make it "easier". We have failed our children.

[@BladeDevil]

I had this game. Yeah I just did the trap too

[@huba3885]

we had that too ^^

[@HhelllzzBbellzz]

Mouse Trap rules. Any other board game WANTS to be Mouse Trap, but they CAN'T!

[@schwarzerritter5724]

Have you seen the life sized version of the trap from the television show?

[@KristinGieseking]

I could've done without the swearing while my eight year old listened.

[@bstarr-qh3le]

"crank that shit" XD

[@scottishblacklab]

i used to want this but my parents wouldn't let me have it sadly

[@IanHollis]

I always just set up the game first, in its entirety, then played.

[@DragonUltraMaster]

the entire video has that redish tone. Was that from the original video aswell? I don't remember that.

[@hamzadawud]

I never played the actual game, not once.

[@jwo4life710]

Who wants to play the game? Just crank that shit!

[@Lightning206]

to be honest i never played this game i just setted it up to watch the trap but thanks for explaining how to play the game i never really cared to try it other then that trap lol

[@Gio030]

Dont remember playing this game,but I remember building up the trap! Strange :/

[@GetGood5]

I honestly have no recollection of mouse trap being a board game lol

[@rickyray2794]

The red "net" on my game would always get stuck on the teeth :(

[@张裕特质三鞭酒]

well quit trying to eat it

[@rickyray2794]

RRkroovy genius!

[@张裕特质三鞭酒]

you're welcome

[@PinoyBowlerGS92]

0:30 😆

[@matthewmicelli6674]

Crank that shit!

[@Redmoonblade]

Wait you have to put the pieces on one at a time?

[@MrQuijibo]

Our dog ate the mice. Kind of ruined the rest of the game

[@Gothicskull101]

I have the newer version, the trap is the same.

[@seandaimao2918]

Hey James im sure u have seen the new Godzilla teaser trailer im sure we are all curious on what your thought are about it. It be cool for you to do a review on it

[@ErravanRevalio]

I have this

[@christopherfillion5757]

You oughta check out the Insane Clown Posse board games. Morton’s List is one I haven’t played yet, but The Quest for Shangri-La is fun as hell.
