I'm pretty sure your "sideways" Wii is a "Family Edition" Wii. They are missing a few features, since the tagline was that they were more affordable for families. The biggest difference is that it won't run GameCube games like a normal Wii. Glad I found your Goodwill video, I'm enjoying your channel! Edit: I guess yours won't run normal Wii games either, lol

[@ST4RSH4PED]

i think they might be a bit like the wii mini ?

[@foxycritter]

Saying that Borderlands 2 reminds you of Apex Legends should be a criminal offense. However, introducing the world to the Bass Fishing tackle box music made up for it.

[@GamingWithDrew]

Major props for recycling them back to Goodwill after all that driving and gas. I would've probably selfishly organized them on a shelf never to be played again. Props.

[@humbdedumb6009]

That tackle box song was ridiculous, amazing.

[@gridmeet9602]

We Ski is by far one of the best Wii Games you picked up. You didn’t really give it a chance, there are tons of hidden areas in the map, many side quests, and an open world map with a multitude of friends to meet along the way.

The Kamen Rider game is based on the show Kamen Rider Ryuki! Its on Tubi for free; I recommend it so much. It gets pretty dark, and the action is so cool.

[@SSJ3Goku90]

More so, it's based on Dragon Knight, the american adaptation. But yes, the suits are the same as Ryuki.

[@joshtoten]

And unlike Saban's terrible attempt at adapting Kamen Rider Black RX into Masked Rider, Dragon Knight is actually pretty decent for the time it came out. Sure, it feels like a lesser Smallville, but it was fun.

that family guy back to the multiverse is rare. it was removed from steam. I see used copies going for $70 on console. Try getting some rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab to clean the discs. Well seen you dropped it all off at the goodwill so nvm.

[@thegoathead7538]

That Family Guy game was actually worth quite a bit. Personally would’ve kept that, as it seems to be a great game for local multiplayer chicanery.

[@NekoValtz]

Aaaaaaay glad to hear Dragon Knight was given a huge thumbs up. If you end up getting into the kamen rider franchise would love to hear about that (which isn't easy given most of it you have to rely on finding fansubs for but there are a small handful of series that have legal free and official subtitles)

[@segadudedrew]

There totally was a perspective shift when you switched to third person in that Star Wars game. Watch closely, and you can see the space rock or whatever that is shift slightly when you press the button. It's not a dramatic shift, but considering how relatively far away it is, the perspective shift wouldn't be that dramatic. Anyway, great video!

Just getting started but had to make a quick note. I've heard soooo many good things about the Lego games, particularly the Lego Star Wars, so I felt really bummed when I picked up Star Wars TCS and the games felt so samey. And I couldn't believe there's literally no penalties. So now seeing Lego Pirates is almost the same as Lego Star Wars and I'm glad I didn't buy any of the others.

[@bluedash24]

I used to play tons of LEGO games but eventually I hit a point where I felt super burnt out & just sorta stopped. Yeah, I was more into the 2010’s games where the characters started to talk & they slowly brought in some new mechanics to each new one, but it wasn’t enough to keep me from getting tired eventually. It certainly was a problem with those games, but I know that many kids really enjoyed them :)

[@theidiotchildren]

The fun in those games come more from finding collectibles and unlocking characters, as the intended audience is young children so the challenge level is always kept to a minimum. They're good, but formulaic and repetitive.

[@RANCORDEV]

I had a lot of fps games during the ps3's heyday and I always remember having to remap the controls to actually use the triggers on the controller. Such a bizarre design choice.

[@fusionspace175]

I play a lot of light gun games on the Wii, it's one of the reasons I keep it around. I've also used a lot of gun peripherals for it, and the Zapper that comes with Link's Crossbow Training is by far the best. it has the fastest trigger action, the lightest frame, the best stability using the back end to plant, and it works just as well with a nunchuck docked or free hand, as some games require. No third party I bought ever even came close, despite modifying the spring strength and other things myself after buying them. The biggest problem I have with the Wii gun games is that you can't actually aim down the sight, it aims more in the arc of a grenade launcher, you're always pointing way off from where the shots would actually go from a real gun, and I grew up on the NES Zapper which used plastic iron sights that actually functioned like a real gun for aiming. Other than that though, it captures a lot of the fun of arcade shooters with those big plastic guns, and it's much more compact and functional than the Super Scope. The Wii Zapper is the final evolution of the light gun in modern console terms, and it deserves your respect.
