[@instantlymeatified]

early and mid 90s cd console games always had the weird obscure libraries with interesting games

[@TRI-COUNTER]

realest shish ever - i live for those games

[@arandomexplosion]

videos that go hard

[@Thenumberstationangel]

I’m genuinely shocked you have so few subscribers, this shits peak

[@TRI-COUNTER]

ayo, thank you, appreciate dat :)

[@Wolf161Paq]

The first song playing during the Tetris segment made me ascend….sauce?

[@TRI-COUNTER]

think its just called "presenting tetris" from the tetris cdi soundtrack - shit does slap yeah

[@Meatpony]

GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS!!! Great vibe, great words, fun information!! I love old games that make me feel like I was thrown in to some strange little world that only I reside in. Sad but fun little vibes they give off, something I miss dearly, especially old obscure pc games, . , ,. I can't wait for whatever the next video may be!! I love these niche little things! Yaaaay!!!!!

[@TRI-COUNTER]

"some strange little world that only I reside in" - AYO thats actually perfect- godd i wish i had thought up that one lmao thats the exact kinda atmosphere i do these deepdives to find, so yea - thank you very much for that :)

[@Meatpony]

@@TRI-COUNTER YEAHEAH NO PROBELM !!!💞💞💞

[@disgustedalien]

YOU DID NOT HAVE TO INCLUDE TETRIS CDI FOR ME.. YOU DID NOOOOOT. it's glorious. it's amazing.. one day i will break into your house and steal it.. those backgrounds are keepin me alive.. this ''nature'' thing is also my jam.. *btw i saw yosemite park and grand canyon.. even bought a tshirt.. and recently i been browsing thru internet archive searching for vhs documentaries about wildlife or overall just random vhs goodness.. it makes me hate summertime sadness less right now

[@TRI-COUNTER]

I was needing a few extra games to balance out the video anyway - cdi tetris just made for an easy, and perfect fit :) and hell yeah: vhs nature documentaries can be so soothing - theres this random one about the australian wet season that i always play to clean my vcr lmao - coz its like the best condition tape ive got

[@disgustedalien]

@@TRI-COUNTER plsplspls i beg you give me the title.. maybe i be able to find it.. i am in my phase of saving all specific things like random videos on youtube that i like or some vhs stuff and just watch them whenever i feel too bored to even watch yt.. and i got 1 video out of your channel saved too bcuz its just matching my private collection.. sorry if i might seem creepy but i do think that hyping up someone can help them in makin more stuff.. Xd

[@TRI-COUNTER]

its called "The Big Wet" by ABC Video - ive not been able to find it online, but some australian streaming site has it up - but it didnt let me watch it becuase im not in australia apparently lmao and ayo, its not creepy, i do the same lol - and yes, it does indeed help - thank you :)

[@jimbo2revengeance]

Damn, didn't know the Best neighborhood series had animation, only ever read the book, my favorite was the one about a paper mill.

[@TRI-COUNTER]

apparently there was a tv show yeah - idk anything besides that about it though lmao - wasnt a series i knew about when i was a kid, but i wished i had - the books look really sweet

[@casanovafunkenstein5090]

Fun trivia: The Crimson Ghost is also where the band Misfits obtained their iconic band mascot who appears on their album covers and merchandise. It's literally a still from the film that's been rendered into pure black and white.

[@TRI-COUNTER]

ayo thank you, that sure is fun fact

[@arandomexplosion]

bro got me about to drop my last $850 on a CD-I with a shitload of games on marketplace wtf!!! (yes, hotel mario is included)

[@TRI-COUNTER]

ayo, thats quite a lotta dough homie, but ayo - cdi software is quite easy to burn, so i would do that for games and save money :)

[@arandomexplosion]

@TRI-COUNTER i did go through that today, but ayo, check this out - it does come with a really badass game selection, also comes with the mad dog peacekeeper revolver (in box with the mad dog mcree games), digital video expansion cartridge, game pad (also in box) and the wireless remote. and the console itself is CIB as well :DDD i was thinking the exact same thing tbh (priceyyy), tried looking for a console seperately but they were more than half the price of this deal alone, so i figured fuck it. imma just resell some and cover the difference if i must 😈. (i should mention that i'm in canuckbucks, too, so it was like $600ish USD for all of it) i'm lowkey excited asf now after learning it has pretty much zero copy protection, though 😈 (ayo, sorry for the essay bro. i just don't know that many other gigabased cdi connoisseurs so i had to overshare 🙏🏻)

[@TRI-COUNTER]

​@@arandomexplosion ayo, dam bro - yeah that is actually pretty good value - i dont even think ive seen a boxed cdi for sale where i am online - just the loose, old, beat up ones are weirdly quite common here lmao - average prices i see are around £120 to 200 - which i think makes around $180-250 america moneys? but yeah, buying in big bundles like that is the way to go - them individual games and bonus are always worth more than you think, so if yous selling them off - then yeah, absolutely makes that a pretty sick steal homie, ngl imo - I'd 100% keep the light gun and controller - the spoon life that i had chosen is not the easiest path but yeah - if your into all the weird, non-game software stuff on CDI, theres really a tonne of them - and its pretty fun to just pick and choose random oddball things to burn to some cds. its pretty great - basically every cd console before ps2 has next to no real copy protection lmao - besides saturn - but even now, theres very easy ways around that i really wanna make a video on flash carts, burning cds - all that "piracy" stuff is something i very strongly support ayo, so yea bro - kinda counter essay'd you there lmao - but pretty sweet purchase it sounds - hope you also enjoy that chad cdi gang life :)
