[@onwiththesnow]

After gamester81's response I went back and rewatched all of your coverage of the retro vgs/chameleon to see if anything John said had weight and I have to say you guys covered your bases from day 1. Bravo on the good reporting

[@PatTheNESpunk]

+andy ehmann Thank you.

[@coeurdelion3113]

+andy ehmann Yeah, thanks cuz!

[@sarahmoify]

+Pat the NES Punk I hope (given you have many years left...) that you will always continue doing video game news...you are so impartial and professional and you are an enjoyment to watch

[@DeaconDispair]

+Pat the NES Punk So Alpha looks a bit silly now?

[@davebladegun3009]

+DeaconDispair He has always looked silly.

[@Skywalker-zu7od]

Pat and Ian: your personal emphasis on integrity is laudable and does not go unnoticed. I have experienced similar issues in my own professional life and I can agree that it is definitely the path less traveled and most people want to look the other way, because it is not easy and the pushback can be difficult to deal with, and has the potential to derail your own success. Being able to know you are ultimately trying to keep people from harm and also put your head on the pillow at night and know that you have no ulterior motives is its own reward, regardless of the reaction. Much respect.

[@PatTheNESpunk]

+JBG Thank you, sir.

[@PSUDarius2032]

+JBG Agreed JBG

[@zenmastakilla]

+JBG your whiteness is showing.....

[@teamhex]

+Zen Masta Killa As if the color of one's skin has anything to do with being capable of banging out a good post... ...have a good day.

[@leodf1]

+JBG What the hell are you talking about? Bashing other people trying to get something off the ground from the start is the easiest thing in the world to do, and is what most people actually do all the time. You impress this illiterate American audience here with your pretentious high tone style but what you're saying is in fact completely stupid. Your account is brand new and seems to have been created for this comment alone. Is that you Ian/Pat??

[@Ostnizdasht206]

I'm glad you worked things out with Gamester81. Good on ya, Pat.

[@PatTheNESpunk]

+Tired Asian Gamer John's a good guy at heart.

[@myrongaines5542]

+Pat the NES Punk We still love you Pat 👍

[@Redfoot138]

+Pat the NES Punk I was Team Pat though ;)

[@Boney4000]

+Pat the NES Punk regardless of everything else, you two soothing things over is the best possible outcome. you have exposed the hoax and maintained what seems to be a Good working relationship and friendship. thanks for being a stand up guy. u am deserve all the success you have. Keep it up pat!

[@KaptainKlassic]

+Pat the NES Punk good for you Pat. No hard feelings buddy.

[@Midori_Hoshi]

Gamester was defending the Retro VGS even after the second fake prototype with the DVR capture card, saying "everyone fucks up sometime". It's honestly disgusting. I had to unsub from him because of it. Pat and Ian, thank you for actually caring about gamers and the community and being open minded and honest.

[@syxx573]

I found it funny that AlphaOmegaSin indirectly ranted on Pat. That kid will do anything to stay relevant.

[@Austin989891080p]

+syxx573 what video was that?

[@ronaldchaplin8094]

+syxx573 I used to like Alpha after I discovered him through the Game Chasers. Then I went and looked at his back catalog and discovered that while he might not call himself a Gamergater he really comes across as one.

[@diegomineiro]

+syxx573 I guess number of views doesn't matter anymore...

[@mattlehtma9562]

+syxx573 He tried to push some stupid hashtag with a Filthy Frank meme, you're not wrong lol

[@speedracer223308]

You read my mind.

[@GonzoDuke]

Pat is the #1 person I trust when it comes to retro video games.

[@Ternaldius]

Yup.

[@Ternaldius]

+FetusxFajita I'm sure he'll be able to cheat the system and beat Hillary and Trump easily. #PetThePat

[@yakkowarner1990]

+Ternaldius When one has a Game Genie and Nintendo Power on their side, anything is possible -Okay the joke was terrible sorry-

[@Ternaldius]

noisyturtle Ha true. xD

[@babloo1666]

+GonzoDuke yea Pat is awesome like that.

[@obsoletegeek]

Mike Kennedy is a coward. I can't believe he hasn't reached out to his developers after this PR disaster.

[@RetroHamer]

+The Obsolete Geek He's doing what the Fine Bros did and trying to remove all info from the net and pretending nothing ever happened and hope we move onto the next online disaster

[@lukasperuzovic1429]

+RetroHamer At least the Fine Brothers made a video admitting their wrong.

[@RetroUnlim]

An uncomfortable moment on my feed that I'm relieved worked out in the right way. Kudos Pat and Ian.

[@psygnosisowl8036]

I'm sorry, but Gamester's apology was as hallow as a pumpkin. He kinda apologized, then continued to defend Mike Kennedy, and then continued to bash gamers (and even Pat) for being passionate about games because ... there's ISIS and kids in Africa starving? The guy got caught, and he got defensive about it. He was trying to ride the money trail, and when it turned to a shit trail, he didn't like it.

[@crumps2]

Wait adults adulted and things worked out? Get off KZbin with yer "logic" and your "good" Glad you and Gamester are* cool again, it's like balance brought to the force editted since I spell like a moron

[@elementalfact0r]

Very cool to see you guys smoothed everything over, this whole Chameleon ordeal has been real shit.

[@mattorama]

First reaction: Man, these guys rambled for 22 minutes? Finishing reaction: Man, that genuinely DID need 22 minutes to discuss! Adults handling things like adults. The Chameleon guys are the enemy, not fellow KZbin retro gamers.

[@AARON88STANG]

Thanks for your excellent coverage of this whole saga. I'm glad to hear you and John are cool again.

[@canadianelite]

Out of everybody involved in the project/people covering it... Pat an Ian are like the only ones who have come out with clean hands, as well as being correct all along.

[@jeff97ish]

John is a good guy, and I am glad you guys worked things out Pat. I know this is an old video, but I am just now seeing it.

[@Tony_3xl]

Respect Pat and Ian. You tell it how it is. Showing emotion is a big reason why I love your podcast. Looking forward to your book and my very first loot crate. Cheers. From a New Zealand guy.

[@robertrobertrobrob]

Thank you for standing your ground and speaking the truth against a very slimy and shady snake oil company.

[@Zim85]

I feel like I'm watching reality television. This has more of a plot then anything on WWE right now. really enjoy these videos.

[@RickyRicardo135]

its like watching a Mexican Novela on Telemundo, so much drama, lol

[@StormDatIsApproaching]

Hey pat!I think when it comes to retro gaming your channel os the best.It has such a nostalgic and charming feeling to itself.

[@YouSuperJ]

Pat never mentioned anyone by name. Only the guilty parties were feeling the heat. If you didn't feel guilty, you shouldn't have made any "in defense of" videos. AlphaOmegaSin should have kept his nose out of the mix as well. I have always been on the fence about how valid I felt his opinions were, and I lost all respect for him after his faux outrage. The thing that was so lame in Gamester81's video was his defense that no actual money changed hands. The ONLY reason that no money changed hands was because of Pat, Ian and the Atari Age forums looking out for everyone. If that Kickstarter went live, you can be the farm that Mike would have cashed those checks. The fraud was kept up with the intent to deceive people into parting with their hard earned cash to fund this elegant piece of vaporware. That was the criticism.

[@ronaldchaplin8094]

+YouSuperJ Alpha is twat. I really liked him when I first saw him in Game Chasers episodes, but then I actually looked at his back catalog and realized that he is pretty much a Gamergater in everything but name.

[@FireMrshlBill]

+YouSuperJ Exactly, the only reason no money changed hands was because he got called out. Otherwise, he would have been happy to take it under false pretenses (fraud). I think Gamester81 had a hard time thinking his friend was scamming him or anyone else, but saying he felt bad for Mike and then turning around and attacking Pat in the same video.... he should apologize. Ya, Alpha shoulda stayed out, he caused more harm than good. I think he probably wasn't a fan of Pats and jumped the gun. I wonder if he lost subscribers?

[@chuckycheesechucky]

I'm glad everything is sorted out and all good!

[@BolofromAvlis]

Love the Podcast fellas, glad you smoothed things over with Gamester. Really impressed with the nits you put out on KZbin. So much that I finally became a Patreon supporter.. Screw these 20 ,minute clips, I wanna see the whole deal in amazing Tecmocolor (TM) ! Let fly the colortinis!

[@TheGGShow77]

Glad things got worked out between you and other youtubbers. You're light years above this drama! Great video!

[@whatamalike]

Whats the shortest book ever? 'In defense of Mike Kennedy'

[@cannonballkid]

1:57 lmao Ian's slow blink when pat said 'Ian drinks well...', I love you Ian.

[@MrVef1824]

why does Ian look like he's undressing pat with his eyes?

[@LordofApache]

+MrVef1824 Because that's what everyone does whilst looking at Pat.

[@martinh4982]

Well at least we can all look forward to Mike Kennedy's next Jaguar shell project later this year.

[@mechanoid2k]

+Martin H Maybe Mr. Lee and his shadowy gang of triads will buy them back at a seedy shipping dock in hong kong?

[@BlargleWargle]

+Martin H "Please fund my Kickstarter for a Jaguar shell home delivery service"

[@foxhound34]

Hey Pat you should put all the videos from the Retro VGS saga in one nice little package video

[@ReplicA63]

I don't normally comment on youtube videos, there's enough here to last a lifetime. But I wanted to say, after seeing your video, then Gamester81's video, I've been waiting for a response from you, Pat. I didn't make any judgements, or jump to any conclusions. I've been watching you long enough, and Gamester long enough, to know you're both really cool people, and deserve the benefit of the doubt. So thank you very much for clearing the air on this. I'd really hate for you two to have bad blood, especially caused by this coleco abomination.

[@SVT512]

Ya, Mike has not reached out to me either, he used to call me almost daily, now after all this, nothing. Glad you and Ian covered this so well, I wish I would have listened to you guys and my buds at Retro Gaming Roundup sooner :P

[@126Face]

The whole thing was a complete disaster. It's unfortunate business weasels like Kennedy exist and can cause potential bad blood between friends. That being said I think the only one who looks foolish in all of this is AlphaOmegaSin, Gamester is a big boy, he can defend himself. Perhaps Keeping out of other people's affairs is the better choice.

[@StarReel]

If people are criticizing you, your doing something right.

[@Thanatos420]

+StarReel So are you saying that Mike was doing something right with the Chameleon? Because Pat and Ian have been criticising both for quite awhile.

[@gbrendel]

Only halfway through the vid. Also watch Gamster. Awesome response vid. Great to see real friendship on display. Hope for humanity.

[@torloni13]

5:23 ..... that's real friendship!!!! Keep up the awesome work!!!!! I'm a big fan from Brazil.

[@TheDeFiler316]

You see how all of this could have been avoided if Gamester81 would have spoke with Pat instead posting the video? He would have avoided all of this. Glad Pat and John spoke about it because we don't need two good friends ruined over a reaction to the Coleco debacle.

[@mechashadow]

Like John said it is best to talk to the source.

[@Batman-hp2uq]

+A_Man_Named_Jayne In fairness to Gamester. After Pat's video came out, followers spammed his name in the comments section. At that point, nobody was demanding Pat to do things. From what I've seen, Pat checks those comments. Pat could have simply responded to one of those spams saying he wasn't talking about Gamester. That also would have helped to avoid all of this from going down. Either way, it's a lesson learned and we can go forward.

[@budfahnestock2418]

still just watching for the t-rex arms

[@Tolman18]

Awww so glad to see that both you and John have smoothed things over. Now we can all get back to the more important news, which doesn't include the RVG or Chameleon!

[@mediaglitch]

Glad its all worked out, you all seem like great guys.

[@ryanamberger]

This is a very professionally done video addressing the "problem". Cheers homie. ✌️😎👍

[@ryanamberger]

The worst part about this is mike swindled the community, sure. That's dirty. But to think he did it to a friend, being John, is so sad. It really is. The people worked up about what mike didnt get hurt as much as John did. That was his friend. Just a really sad situation. Glad you guys worked it out though. I'm sure the hate he had been receiving and feeling like you were calling him out plus what mike did, making that video was a heat of the moment thing. A lot of emotions. The main thing is that he and you are good to go.

[@ronaldchaplin8094]

Pat the NES Punk the person that really needs to issue you an apology is AlphaOmegaSin.

[@ronaldchaplin8094]

+chris j He was very hypocritical in his Coleco Chameleon video. He jumped to Gamester's defense and was screaming about people attacking Gamester without naming him even though he didn't name said people and it was very obvious he was talking about Pat.

[@euphoria_7477]

+Ronald Chaplin Meh. I doubt anyone takes that guy seriously anyway.

[@ronaldchaplin8094]

+Joe Snes I wanted to like Alpha when I discovered him through the Game Chasers, but he is a Gamergater in all but name. I just can't support that shit.

[@euphoria_7477]

+Ronald Chaplin Yeah, he may be a good guy in real life. And I was subbed to him for a while. He's much too loud for my taste. Seemed like all he did was bitch about everything, and yell obscenities constantly. That and trying to act like he's a badass or something. Idk, just not my kind of entertainment I guess.

[@redroversk]

Gamergate was a good thing though, it exposed the political influence and disingenuous, incestuous nature of video game journalism.

[@LuisRosa72]

I'm glad that you and John smoothed things out.

[@jarisparker208]

Pat and Ian is so great to put on at night and zone out at night before you sleep💯 I love your podcast please don't stop👍👍👍

[@jordanromaker]

It's not the least bit surprising to me that John would have already been in a defensive mindset considering what he'd been through, so it's also not surprising that he reacted the way he did to your video. I suspect I would have reacted the same way. The funny thing is that both sides are essentially right, it's just that the whole situation was making people angry from every possible angle, and so sparks flew. Ian's comment about "cooler heads prevailing" is 100% correct. But it's such a relief that y'all were able to clear the air. Also, it's worth noting that there's a big difference between being "fair" and being "neutral". Despite you guys taking a hard stand against the RVGS/Chameleon and being at the forefront of its skeptics and critics, I felt you were still extremely fair about the whole thing. After all, it's not as though your position was ideological; I'm sure you would have changed your position had Mike Kennedy et al actually given you a reason to. To the contrary, they had every opportunity to prove the critics wrong, and they failed spectacularly at every turn, and then furthermore doubled-down on their dishonesty. Getting torn a new asshole isn't "unfair" if you've been fucking with people, and Kennedy got exactly what he deserved. It's a sad day for retro gaming when the supposed professionals of the industry don't have an ounce of respect for their customer base. Kudos at least to Coleco for having the class and dignity to finally demand results from Kennedy and then kicking his ass to the curb after he failed to deliver. And good on you both for fighting the good fight :)

[@silasmorgestern3834]

i can't explain why i've been so fascinated by this. however, great job of being thorough in your investigations, citations, etc: it's why you guys have credibility. anyway, thanks for using your media presence for doing good and protecting the mislead. it's really honorable.

[@gameuxqc]

I hope this KZbin drama will go on for as many episodes as The Young and the Restless.

[@SAM-ru4vx]

+Les Gameux that's keemstar's gimmick....

[@roberthanthonymartinezrive7383]

On the 14:10 mark,i actually talked to Piko interactive saying if they had plans of porting some of their games for the jaguar,fortunately they do,the problem is that they don't have a method of printing their games on cart for the system,i suggested to them if mike could lend the cart molder to them,then they responded me with a "eeeehhhhhh no",giving me the assumption that they cut off their contact with Kennedy.

[@crammit6601]

It was a stupid idea. The Retron 5 is the closest thing you'll get to a modern cartridge based console.

[@Snotnarok]

I saw Gamester81's vid, good on him for doing it but I didn't agree about his statements like "everyone fucks up" there's a difference between a mistake and the lies the guy was kicking out. Those photos were very substantial and instead of answering he lied again. Scam? Who knows, probably not but he lied how many times and kept pushing this thing he obviously didn't have and it was lie after lie. High horse and beating up on someone who's down? People just want answers, this interested people and the guy fed lies instead of taking this on. He still hasn't. So of course people are angry. Any company fucks up they expect an apology, the Coleco guy couldn't even do that to Gamster81 never the less the people who were interested. Or future devs who, if they try and kick out a console WILL be compared to Coleco, they will be under a bloody microscope because of Coleco's bullshit. No sides taken here, I disagree with some thing G81 said but it's awesome he addressed the points. What a weird situation with this Coleco shit...

[@cantona222]

I'm glad both parties are back to normal. You guys are awesome & the drama is entertaining somehow. This is a "real" reality show.

[@jaretsina]

That dentist that killed Cecil the lion is probably saying, "It could be worse, I could be Mike Kennedy."

[@lambco6424]

completely off topic but I absolute love that the Batman Vs Superman trailer plays before this video. I can almost hear Ian's eye twitching with rage.

[@ApeAlchemist]

"Thats a weird hill to die on" lol

[@GeoffGordonStuart]

Glad you and John have sorted it out. You are both valuable to the retro gaming scene. Let's see you and gamester81 do a flea market madness episode one time. I can see Frank and gamester81 having a beer together.

[@TotallyRadical]

I'm glad you guys smoothed things over, but I really was surprised by Gamesters video response. Almost to the point where he was making it sound like he didn't understand why people were upset or realizing that he was really coming off as clueless.

[@sonicmeerkat8945]

Is Pat's book going to be purchasable on amazon? Just search on amazon I see a slew of unrelated stuff and some sort of ebook on unlicensed nes games being sold for a penny.

[@longarmsshow]

Glad to hear that you and Gamester smoothed things over. It definitely seemed like a huge misunderstanding, so I'm glad it all got worked out. No need for unnecessary drama, ya know?

[@johnnybensonitis7853]

I've been wondering what happened to Seanbaby...

[@synth505]

There have been multiple youtubers to come forward and call out this sham. What I dont understand is why John didnt. If I was John I would be pissed and the last thing I would do is defend Mikes character while seemingly criticizing those calling this a fraud. This is not a matter of opinion. So in this regard alone I understand why some have pointed their finger at him. He gave Mike a pass on this BS. He really needs to admit this was a fraud and fault Mike for lying to the community if he truly wants to clear the air.

[@BustedToyPRODUCTIONS]

Get over it!

[@theactualcanadian8300]

I trust you Pat for Retro news over anyone; good stuff man

[@JungolistMassif]

Why is Ian always blurry??? Alcohol usually makes other people blurry to the drinker, but not the drinker to everyone else.

[@SeekerLancer]

It's great to see people cut past the drama and talk things out like adults. That's a rarity on the Internet these days.

[@evandominguez6620]

Hey pat, I've always wondered who is frank? how did you guys meet. What is the story with that. I have always wondered.

[@Hollyweeds]

Shenanigans! Thanks for calling it guys.

[@KindaLeon]

Really pleased you and John are all good. I feel sorry for him in a way.

[@epidemicmagick]

I am exactly one of those who connected your criticisms with John, and exactly because of that hour long interview he did back for the Retro VGS, although I was aware that it wasn't directly aimed at him, but at the project as a whole. I do feel sorry for John, nevermind that he really had a couple of wrong steps along the way, I think that his enthusiasm for a theoretically cool project burned him in the end far more than it should have...

[@joshnickerson83]

Sometimes you just gotta talk things out. Glad to hear everything ended up okay.

[@PercyPumpkinheart]

I'm glad to hear that you and Gamester81 have sorted out this little misunderstanding. It would indeed have been a great shame had this misguided venture damaged your relationship with each other.

[@LinkRocks]

I'm glad you and John are cool again.

[@Dream0Asylum]

I love a comment section full of people jumping to the defense of those that have been objectively illustrated to be wrong and/or fraudulent. "Oh, sure, they're frauds and the gaming press wasn't being professionally skeptical - but you weren't nice about it so screw you!" It is to laugh.

[@mrtomshepley]

Glad you worked things out with gamester thanks for clearing everything up. We can just put this disaster behind us.

[@shinhawk]

If Mike Kennedy is using funds from the Retro magazine to fund outside ventures, is that along the lines of(if not outright) embezzlement?

[@lukasperuzovic1429]

+shinhawk I am sure the FTC is watching and is putting together a case first before they pursue to press charges. The FTC has been watching crowd source funding campaigns for a while and already taken crowdfunding campaigns to court when they failed to deliver.

[@classicmwk]

Great podcast!

[@TheNzGameFreak]

Thank you Pat for working things out you did a good think, explaining the situation and what you meant but i think the biggest thing is that you generalized first.. but other than that it was good criticism :)

[@Paul_The_Spaceman]

I think there is a way to make something like this work, they just missed a step, they should have made a "new" cartridge console that had adaptors to allow retro consoles cartridges to work.

[@the_platinum_wizard867]

Does pat review nes games anymore? If so where can I find 'EM

[@DallyBearNK]

When I first started to watch the video, there was only 2 comments. I refreshed the comments while there was about 2 minutes left. The number of comments jumped to 31, 32 now! :P That is a drastic change! :P

[@MarxasThomas]

i'm a little behind the times, but i just recently found out about this Coleco Chameleon scam, just crazy man!

[@rinzl3rs349]

seems the retro vgs website is for sale now on godaddy

[@Trencher1375]

Loyalty is overrated. People find ways to use others peoples loyalty for their own gain and whole corrupt environments creates a feeling among the group that people who are loyal and never speak up will somehow get rewarded or respected for it. Worse still at other times loyalty is put up as some ideal an exalted state of mind and being that has moral value in it self. When it truth loyalty is only valuable if the cause or person you are loyal to is valuable. To serve, to support and to defend is not admirable in itself and it is great that there are people within groups that sets truth above "keeping everyone happy".

[@Batman-hp2uq]

+Pat the NES Punk After the "over zealous" video. Gamester's name got spammed by followers. If you would have responded to one of those comments saying that you weren't including John in the rant... Do you think any of this would have went down? or did you not see any of those comments?

[@samuryan8923]

18:50

[@Batman-hp2uq]

+Samuryan Not sure if that clarifies my question. I was just wondering if Pat reads the comments after he posts his videos. And if he does... Would a comment have saved this whole situation. If so, it's just something to learn from and go forward with.

[@davebladegun3009]

+B atman Shut up.

[@Batman-hp2uq]

+Dave Bladegun I've read a few of your other comments. Let's keep it classy.

[@Batman-hp2uq]

+devournzt or not

[@Guyjharrison]

Thanks for these videos exposing this crap. I have been more of a die hard PC gamer since the late 80s and without good reporting or coming across those deeply into this stuff, I could have easily fallen for believing there would be an all-in-one 16 bit console nowadays. I was looking into this stuff for my 9 yr old son. He likes 8 bit and 16 bit games more than I.... Thanks again.

[@apollstar1]

Thanks for delivering real information Pat.

[@13lood13ath]

Pat, your Silver Surfer shirt is awesome.

[@FoxInferno13]

Mad respect for ya, Pat. To not only call this nonsense, but to smooth things over with a dude who I've lost a lot of respect for over said nonsense takes the patience of a saint.

[@jamespayne8252]

Thank you Pat, not only did you cover the Chameleon drama well, you also give good insight with the hobby of retro gaming. You have saved many from supporting this shameful project. Keep up the great work, and remember haters are going to hate.

[@Saxie81]

Your defense is you all didn't mention names hence he shouldn't have been defensive.... Weak gentlemen.

[@DevilSurvivor69]

he was defensive because he supported Mike Kennedy's fraud and he knows deep down that he was wrong. Them naming or not naming him has nothing to with it, but apparently his fans will to damage control as you are right now.

[@Saxie81]

ItalkiTeacher he was defensive because everyone took to twitter after him. Of course John was going to be defensive. You show me where he KNEW it was going to amount to bullocks. There's a reason we're 'talking about what he knew" instead of showing proof of what he knew.

[@g10118]

+Saxie81 Hmm, almost sounds like an accomplice in this obvious scam has decided to lend his opinion... This was a bullshit project from the very start with ZERO tangible reason to exist. Now you're here defending someone who should have know better, pretended he didn't and then got pissy when the general public finally figured it out. In your little land of fantasy, one of the few people who called them out from the start is somehow responsible for the fully deserved retribution. Get out of the ill-fitting cheap suit, scammer boy. You look like a colossal dork. I don't think John was being intentionally deceitful but he couldn't even tangibly explain why he wanted to own such a ridiculously pointless piece of hardware in the first place. That's a problem. John is a good guy in my book. Even so, he still needs to wise up and be a consumer advocate instead of a mouthpiece for people trying to take advantage of him. I can only laugh at your UE4 demo uploads. Guess you really don't recognize a scam when you see it..... Pre-baked lighting that cannot resolve animation is NOT new and UE4 is the absolute worst of the engines claiming to use the new rendering pipelines.... Take some time off from playing to read about how to utilize a modern graphics pipeline correctly and also take a look at engines that are not inherently broken for forward-looking development practices. You're actively promoting the next 'can't handle basic SM programming' engine. It's a tool for software scammers looking to flush out crap as fast as possible. Why the hell did we ever bother with programmable shaders if you're all going to use the same pre-compiled binary packages?????

[@RyanMartinez]

[@bbrice714]

what's the status with you and alphaomegasin?

[@joevoyles2005]

Whats different besides the last video? Im still watching the last one?

[@DJIndy]

I'll be honest, I thought it sounded like it might be against Gamster81 as well, but even more importantly all over the comments there and previously, and in other places, people were linking the podcasts comments directly to Gamster81 specifically. They are even still doing it in the comments here.

[@stevemoran1474]

you guys have the best podcast pat good luck on the book

[@hektorlinko]

Pat I'm about what you do. I support your shit asap. You DA Man!!! You should go for president!

[@AnalogX64]

Good to hear things between you guys and Gamester81 are cleared. This incident was not worth losing friendship over.

[@grype83]

When someone is backed into a corner it's just human instinct to lash out. I watched John's video and could tell how he felt that his character was being attacked and needed to blow off some steam. Pat and Ian never mentioned John at all but it was that certain portion of the community that went ahead and started talking shit to john that made him feel like he was being put into that group. I like Gamester81 and never associated him with the coleco chameleon project to the point where he was there standing over a clear jaguar shell with Mike Kennedy rubbing there hands together while dropping a DVR board inside of it. Collector Vision games was duped just like the rest of us but with John he had a friendly relationship with Mike so i can understand him not coming out publicly against the product until he got the whole story from Mike and from what i understand they have not even talked about it yet. This is just my opinion, i don't know anyone involved. I'm just a broke ass retro gamer, good day to you's.

[@Bearbryantson]

I love how you guys point out and call out people who are actively trying to screw people over! I always want to call out people who are obviously being deceiving.
