EP CLASSIC S2E3 - GAME BOY CAMERA / WILD 9 / GEX / PLAYSTATION'S SUCCESS - Electric Playground

[@drumega]

I love that I can relive my youth with these classic EP shows. Back then I was watching while enjoying my favourite pop and snack. I’m watching this now while enjoying a nice cigar and whiskey. Thanks EP and PNP for giving me another way to relive my youth!

[@georgewatts6790]

Thanks for the old episodes Vic

[@NukeSonyz]

I have a Game Boy camera with pictures of my old cats

❤

[@darkl3ad3r]

I recommend you back them up soon! I have pictures from 1999 as well on mine and sadly when the battery in them goes, the pics go with them. There's a tool you can buy that's pretty cheap and let's you backup the whole SRAM to your PC so you can keep those old pics exactly as they were bit saved to the RAM.

Just heard about this channel from the Kit & Krysta interview. It's going to be fun checking out all these old episodes. I feel old haha

[@Aragorn7884]

'Wild 9' is a forgotten PSX gem 💎

[@PolecatsRock]

I love watching these old episodes! It brings me back to the tech tv days. Also judgment day when you guys went into that was bliss. I remember sitting at home on thanksgiving break watching marathons as a kid. Thank you for the ultimate nostalgia Victor!

[@lila6117]

Always stop and watch, thanks Vic

[@wrathless7498]

Incredible time capsule, this one got me in the feels

[@catchall4574]

Can we see more retro videos maybe judgement day please 🥺

[@VileDivinity]

Thank you so much for the classic uploads. I always heard of the show back in the day but never actually got to see them. I'm making sure to catch up on all of them now. 👍

[@FalcomScott312]

I remember the Game Boy camera it was an interesting device at the time here!

[@darkl3ad3r]

I still have my teal GameBoy Color and Camera! I actually bought a custom aftermarket piece of hardware to connect my Camera to my PC so I can backup all my pictures on it from 1999 in my childhood home. Loved this thing, got me really interested in photography. Another great episode! Thanks Vic!

[@IRWPD]

Can still remember buying a Dual Shock controller. It changed everything.

[@SenecaRaccoon]

"its not about the cutscenes..." in the 90s it was TOTALLY about the cutscenes...

[@devondavenpro300]

Some years ago..Before the old EP episodes were Re-uploaded to this channel. I remember asking "What is that stuff Tommy T and Erik Walburg eating on???"... Surprisingly, Erik the man himself, answered my question and told me it was chicken mixed with something... maybe flour... I can't remember... Lol

[@darkl3ad3r]

Awesome factoid lol I was wondering myself while watching this one!

[@blazingluke]

Tommy: the PC market? Phil Spencer: The $2500 PC with a 3dfx card is very cool but it's only for a very small number of people.

[@ninjasec]

Truly, our family couldn't afford a p.c like that

[@mannyichi]

This ep was wild lol

[@walt_man]

After AVGN Gameboy Accessories, I'll never look at the GB Camera the same again lol! Did I mention I love these nostalgic, informing and entertaining blasts from the past?

[@whotookmydice]

How many times did Tommy die over the course of the show? Another great trip through the past!

[@7setproduction869]

like your show watch it every night also wish I could work on a show like this.

[@-SunGod-]

Before iPhone, we had GameBoy Pocket cameras

[@wood5495]

1998?! You were only 10 Vic.😊 I was only 5.😉

[@r4zi3lgintoro65]

Angel Tommy lol

[@cicitrout6266]

He looks more like Cupid Tommy 😂

[@DSLightning21]

Ah yes, when Nintendo announced the Rumble Pak for N64, PSX had to get on the bandwagon with the Dualshock. 😉

[@torocars9227]

Is Tommy still doing media ?

[@rockstar6790]

The last time I heard, Tommy was taking care of his dad who was ill at the time.

[@DoubleRDubPlays]

​@rockstar6790 His father passed away a year or two ago, and not much has been heard from him since. 😞

[@torocars9227]

@@DoubleRDubPlays what’s the back story between Tommy and Vic? Vic (media personality) doesn’t mention him much if at all. But I’m sure the real life Vic is still close with Tommy( why else would he constantly editing 20+ year old footage) . Perhaps Tommy moved on from media and this is Vic way of respecting that but reminiscing the past. I’m with him , I miss it too. The simplicity of 90s overall. Entertainment’s industry and its venture capitalists was cut throat place. The lost was on us.

[@PigDan]

Love the channel, I check your content occasionally. It's been years but I'm still confused in regards to Tommy's history and the favorable mentions of him on your channel still, he's under a ton of scrutiny and escalated controversy over the last several years for clear reasons, such as spreading large amounts of false information (especially since the viral video with millions of views came out). Has this been acknowledged? I'm guessing not really because he's probably still a friend, which is fine I suppose. I'm more curious about the whole situation than judgemental. I've read too much about his online presence to be a supporter (and I also have no interest in the Intellivision brand) but everything you've put out there seems much more legitimate and trustworthy. You also seem much more engaged with the gaming industry and fairly discuss it. Aside from that it's good that you're preserving some interesting gaming shows but I'm thinking some of the gaming reviews may not have all aged well lol (that's one criticism I've found online.. dating back decades). But I adore archival footage and find it endlessly fascinating and valuable Hope you're doing alright, I've been especially loving your podcast where you talk to game developers!

[@sloppynyuszi]

Best not to dwell on it too much. A tv show where someone gets to review games he worked on is hardly the best place to get an honest opinion. But it’s still a good time capsule, and Victor seems to focus on the positivity. And it’s nice that this channel isn’t a gossip about personalities and drama channel.

[@PigDan]

​@@sloppynyuszi Good point, I agree. I expect it to never be brought up. It's just a curiosity in certain gaming circles.

[@sloppynyuszi]

@@PigDan I think it would be good to hear Victor have an honest conversation about the whole Tommy fiasco, but to be honest EPN just isn’t the platform. Maybe a video game themed interview podcast. The whole situation in the scheme of things is too small fry for something mainstream outside video games, so I dunno, Spawnwave, or someone like that.
