Pretty much Barbie having a fever dream and she wakes from the dream three times and doesn't make it she has dream it a different night starting over. That's a good gameover mechanic. And lob seems lame, but actually needs good timing. Hell, I was impressed when Arin did the first few time made it with the short drop before learning the longer throw command.

29:44 I don't cave-dive, but I have watched cave-diving videos. This is more to do with the previous level which is in a cave, rather than the level linked. Some caves are a 'siphon' and some caves are 'springs.' A 'siphon' is a cave in which water flows INTO it and so there's a current welcoming divers inside... and resisting against divers trying to exit although that doesn't necessarily mean that it's impossible. It just takes more effort. But regardless, some professional divers REFUSE to swim in a 'siphon' cave. A 'spring' has the water pushing OUT of the cave, and so you need to push against that to get in, but thankfully to get out, it's much easier. In some cases, you don't even have to kick. The flow of the water will just 'carry' you out in time. Kind of in-depth and unnecessarily detailed stuff for a silly 1991 BARBIE nintendo game, but meh, thought I'd share. Cave diving is cool... but there's FAR too many horror stories for my liking and so I'll pass lol

The boss in the Toy Store is one of those giant boxes that hold inflated balls in like, walmart and shit y'know what I'm talkin about? Theres like a hundred inflated beach balls in it and you grab one via the elastics on the side. kids try to treat it like basketball hoop and break a lightbulb, etc. This one has a hatch and is flinging balls at you.

Lol loved this and I want Dan to continue to sing, "It's a good trip lollipop!"🥰

[@huhnocorn7397]

Barbie really read the intro line, and when went *wow what a great book, time to sleep* Because same barbie, same

[@tomanderson2709]

The video Jontron did about old Barbie games years ago was hilarious, it's all I could think about when I saw what they were playing.

[@Shadywolf09]

Arin's frantic Barbie voice when he swims sounds like Kamilla asking for "a treat Dah-aye!"

[@blackdragoncyrus]

I'm prepared for episode 19 of their Dangaronpa v3 playthrough video to just have the title be "Arin loses his mind", and the thumbnail is just an extreme close-up of Arin's bloodshot eyes.

[@theresacherco3503]

I can’t wait for that

6:44 "There ghost clothes." Yes, of all the rejected Barbie clones that the superior Barbie physically and metaphorically jumped over, in leaps and bounds and sales.

[@sourdrop]

Damn, after 1:04 I want Danny to do a full cover of Once Upon a Dream, because I know he would absolutely crush it!

[@scootergirl3662]

Arin: keeps telling us the game is "almost over" Also Arin: Doesn't finish game

[@thelaughingrouge]

Yup this definitely needed to be 43 minutes long.

[@tinkerer3399]

I HAD TO FINISH!

[@LothianRyoku]

No one made you watch the whole thing 🤷🏻‍♀️

The sound that this game makes whenever you jump is actually going to haunt my nightmares

[@DonaldHussainMusk]

Ah... The memories of Jon reacting to this on his channel.

[@skeetsmcgrew3282]

I weirdly just rewatched that recently. I sometimes think his modern stuff is pretty ok until I watch his old stuff and remember he used to actually put effort into his content

[@GamerSupper]

This is the 2d dark souls of video games

[@GamerSupper]

Someone draw that please

[@kalevipoeg6916]

Whenever someone says "The Galleria" my mind ALWAYS goes to Terminator 2 when the T-1000 is looking for John Connor, he stops those kids and asks if they've seen him and they say I think he went to the Galleria. T-1000 repeats "The Galleria?" and you get that iconic scene with the box of roses, the shotgun, the chase scene after, etc. I don't know why but just "The Galleria?" gets me there and I think I'm alone on that.

The only game Vinesauce Joel couldn’t complete in his hardcore Friday adventures. Finally the grumps play it.

My dream is for the Grumps to play the 12 Dancing Princesses game, since that game’s one broken level used to make me cry with frustration.

[@haganebr]

I can't wait for the day Arin finally finds out rewinding in emulators is a thing.

[@mage1439]

When they were playing Super Ghouls and Ghosts he said something like, "I wish there were a way to save to more than one state." I was like, there is, you just can't do it with a single keypress like how you map buttons onto the controller.

Me: "did they wait this long so it wouldn't seem like it was inspired by Jon's video" The other me: "OF FUCKING COURSE NOT. THEY JUST FINALLY PULLED THIS OFF TGE SHELF!" Me again: "but maybe..."

[@blueplayer6197]

Eh the hard life of Barbie, such complex life filled with responsibilities such as going shopping, eating and dragging Ken to a random location as she informs him about the costs. Then Ken gets rewarded by... I guess he post pictures on Instagram because he ain't got the tools to go any further. Ken, you can do better.

[@choko_bard]

To quote the previous not-so-grump. "Oh GOD! What have you DONE to yourself Barbie?! Why is your hair the same color as your skin? Oh god it looks like you're made outta fried chicken!"

[@batlrar]

Dan's story about Ken saying he loves Arby's makes a ton of sense for how she became his beard in the first place. It's unfortunate that he's so deep in the lie that he can't speak his truth even today when his lifestyle is perfectly acceptable, had he only not become accustomed to such a luxurious life provided to him by such an industrious multiple career woman, not to mention the fact that she's such a well known figure that he would be practically guaranteed to lose everything in the split. Perhaps he's forever relegated to the hidden away literal closets with certain G.I. Joe team members, a couple of superhero sidekicks, at least seven He-Man characters, and an endless array of boy band dolls who are nearly imperceptible from one another.

[@ulaladiva]

OMG I used to play this all the time on my mom's Packard Bell 386sx in the early 90s! The lasting impression this game made on me, I swear! The dress at the end made me gasp as a kid and I still want that dress all these years later.

[@Jerry_the_Head]

0:08

[@cosmic8038]

I was like "wait a minute didn't they already play this?" and realized no I'm just confusing it with one of JonTron's vids... Again

[@NaNaShee]

I played this as a kid and didn't think much of it then. 😂 I remember liking the mermaid stage.

2:14 the concept of "my sleep demon that happens to be an incubus does my errands every day" sounds like an anime adaptation of a light novel
