Rollergames (NES) Mike Matei Live

[@The_Bad_Guy.]

Beating people up while skating in rollerblades. I feel like this is the ultimate late 80s, early 90s game haha

[@joeymusashi3995]

i love the crt streams please never stop that

[@OldSchoolCurt]

Mikes rants about random shit are always legendary!!

[@EQOAnostalgia]

I remember finding this way back after Streets of Rage and it was the first time i ever went back to an older console for a while. Good times. I really liked this game back in the day.

[@ericcornish3773]

This is the best nes game ever in my opinion, so many memories playin this in school.

[@LEXICON-DEVIL]

That first song sounds like a mix of Contra & TMNT

[@macreadyop31]

I remember watching this show back in the day. It was funny, kind of like WWF meets roller derby. They are on KZbin, I recommend them haha.

[@The_Fun_Ninja]

I thought I was going to hate how the new LED TVs look with our retro games. But I am blown away !!! Have you guys ever seen the pixel art in truclarity? Look up X-Men uncensored Super Nintendo energetic fist...... I for one do not regret this new experience brought to my old games again. Thanks Mike for keeping the camaraderie amongst Gamers alive .

[@UtushoReiuji]

The first "angry review" I ever watched on youtube was on this game back in 2006. The game has certainly aged a lot better than that video, I still come back to Rollergames from time to time, it's a pretty solid title.

[@lil_bear]

Damn this game has a kickin soundtrack!

[@scottdecowski4913]

Had this game as a kid, revisit it on the emulators every few years. Great soundtrack but NES tough, beat it legit once in my life

[@HardcoreRGProdigyXTR]

The syndicate you were facing off against is known as the organization VIPER - Vicious International Punks and Eternal Renegades, who have held the Rollergames commissioner, Emerson Bankhead (aka Skeeter) hostage, upon corrupting 3 of the 6 teams - Bad Attitude / Maniacs / Violators.

[@TheMicker]

Justice for Skeeter.

Ultra and Konami working together to make great NES games!

[@mamefan]

Ultra is Konami. It's just a shell company they used to get around Nintendo's max # of games a 3rd party company could release each year.

[@godofwar7615]

Really good nes game right here.

[@enigmagreg]

This game was fun to watch, thanks mike

[@brynolf11]

TTT pause music, Mike? Is that really old school enough?

[@LEXICON-DEVIL]

21:14 😁 Yeah man do your thing. Cant please everyone. For whatever reason its soothing hearing Mike, James and even old Bootsy episodes of just talking. Like your DVD room video that i spired James to do the same. We live in a weird time man where dudes our age can connect in ways we couldn’t growing up. Tho we could all definitely get out more and touch grass haha. 🤙 Gaming was always my own private thing. None of my Punk rock friends played any growing up. After a night of shows or parting id come home and Vidgey game! Maybe thats why these videos are interesting to me. 🤷‍♂️

[@thedefonegamer636]

Always loved this game!

[@LEXICON-DEVIL]

7:08 How bout “Mike & The Boys?” Like a trio band name? Mike- Stand back babe, “Mike & the boys” are out and i dont know how big this things gonna get!

[@maxpower5067]

congrats on 100k subs mike

[@Zycyzyx]

It's always weird hearing these perspectives on modern game making vs. old. The controller issue alone is a huge pain in the ass, especially working by yourself. DS4 has a different input map vs. generic 360 (the standard), putting my 8bitdo in Switch or Android mode gives it a totally different map. The buttons have different labels and orders so I need internal mechanisms to shift those around and maybe create specific graphical assets for them. Given the demand to plug/unplug swap at any time you mentioned I need to be be able to tell that this has happened without redundant checks clogging up performance etc. and also apply all needed changes across the board on a whim. Depending on what I'm working in (Unreal, Unity, Game Maker, Construct, whatever) I might need to use totally different commands for Xinput or fall back to legacy joystick stuff that handles a bit differently. Using keys instead? That's whole other block of kind of redundant input commands that need to go in there, along with clear labeling making them distinct as keys, not gamepad buttons. Using keys *with* controller(s) connected? I need to be able to tell that's what's going on, even accounting for say, stick drift causing 'ghost' inputs and things like that. Did everything right mentioned above but the player expects to be able to use the mouse in a controller-driven retro style game for some reason? *big sigh* Yes, ideally this stuff you handle and get right first; but indies are almost always focused specifically on what they want to do... ie making their super cool unique character have the blondest hair and yellowest boots ever. (The lesson being, know when you need technical help, don't feel you have to do everything yourself. This shit is hard.) Back in the day, it was rough with all the severe technological limitations, sure; but your system had ONE controller standard... and probably someone on your team there specifically to take care of things like input handling.

[@ALENABERKLAND]

Some Marv Home Alone style screams in this one! Love your streams, Mike.

[@The_Fun_Ninja]

@Mikematei I'm not a perv you can thank Capcom for making the game and LG for making the OLED TV so I can see the Sprite work in all its detail. And it is glorious!

[@mingkey8013]

I bought this game 8 years ago at a thrift store for like a couple of bucks and I never seen it before.

[@DazAlienGeek]

Thank you Mike for always telling me what kind of materials your cups are made from. Now I would like to get a Polynesian cup too. I will search where to get one in London.

[@mikematei]

I actually looked online and couldn’t find it. It might be something you have to get in person. Maybe try eBay though

I just traded in some ps2 games and picked this up like literally 2 two days ago. I rented it back in the day and remember it fondly. 😊

[@corrado]

They're ROLLER SKATES, NOT ROLLERBLADES on a side note... I remember the announcers used to say "and remember, WAR is a 3 letter word" I still have this cartridge from back in the day.

Rollerblades of Steel.

[@exitmusic6100]

Great stream I don’t remember anyone growing up having this game. I am enjoying TOTK but I am here hoping for some new Zelda 2 hacks.. or Karnov perhaps

[@mikematei]

I can’t with the continual building stuff in totk. I dont want to be putting logs together and shit. I dont like all those abilities.

[@exitmusic6100]

@@mikematei yeah I would say you could avoid it most of the time but the shrines force you to use them.

[@Cafulish]

One my favourite games!!!

[@peanutmansemporiumofrandom7472]

I never heard of this game. If you blindfolded me and turned this on, I would’ve thought it was a hack of TMNT or Contra.

[@Nutsandmilk123]

Yeah, it's got that Konami style. Ultra was a subsidiary of Konami so they could get around Nintendo's yearly game release limit.

[@peanutmansemporiumofrandom7472]

⁠@@Nutsandmilk123Really? Growing up and seeing the Ultra name so many times, I NEVER would’ve guessed it was part of Konami. Thank you for sharing this.

[@Nutsandmilk123]

@@peanutmansemporiumofrandom7472 No problem! Just in case you want proof, check out the title screen to roller games, copyright Konami

[@MiazgaStudio]

Rollerblading is rad. Actually I do spent most of my time just skating the streets😂😂

[@TatsuyaSN]

Gameboy Skate or Die - Bad 'n rad is another game of this kind with some similarities, from Konami too. It's good.

[@Summer-j7r1u]

@2:42:10 what an excellent hypothetical with which to end the stream.

This game is like the movie “The Purge” but on rollerskates

[@elodvezer1790]

[@andrecondesso8057]

720 arcade is the skate game for me.

[@pekeciel]

Love this game, my father bought it on the nes days and I got so fond memories!!! are you playing it on original hardware or mister? ask because when I play it on mister I lose often, some imperceptible lag? I don´t know....

[@mikematei]

i was playing on an everdrive

[@mentallynumb1]

Mike would rather play Othello than Tears of the Kingdom.

[@mikematei]

If I wanted a game where the main mechanic was building stuff I’d play minecraft. Zelda use to be the innovator. Now they just borrow from others.

[@Tom85AVFC]

MICK WIL PLAI WOT HE WNTS

[@mentallynumb1]

@@mikematei I agree. It looks like it kept everything bad about the first one, too. I think a lot of modern games have taken weapon durability much too far.

[@professorpenne9962]

tears of the kingdom has to have some translation errors. I kept playing because I spent money on it and reached skyview tower, anyone who knows about unlocking that knows what I mean when I say it's complete convoluted bullshit.

[@professorpenne9962]

this is how bullshit that is. you reach the tower and there is an npc at the door, he says that he can't open the door because he's feeling tired and hungry and talks about the cave where he eats mushrooms from at the bottom of the hill. so you go to the cave and have to break a ton of rocks down with a stone weapon or bombs to get through the cave. you pick up everything you can find in the cave then go back up the hill, talk to the bird guy again and he goes on again about being hungry and tired AND IN RED TEXT TALKS ABOUT THE MUSHROOMS HE EATS FROM THE CAVE. guess how you unlock the door? you don't, use acend in the cave to get into the tower from underground. what kind of bullshit is that. that's either bad translation or intentionally fucking people over. sorry if that's a spoiler but man.

Crt streams rule

[@cr-nd8qh]

Bro u are doing really well

[@BoozyBeggar]

The worst parts about Mike's streams is that he only does them 2-3 times a week instead of 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year, and they're only about 4 or so hours long each on average instead of 10 hours long.

[@The_Fun_Ninja]

@Mikematei KZbin age-restricted my video game footage. They didn't need restrict me or anything I said but they didn't like how close I got the camera to the screen. I guess there is a distance at which it becomes suggestive? Like you're only allowed to look so closely at an object? Doesn't that sound silly to tell people they're not allowed to look closely at something. I'm not trying to spam you Mike but I'm sharing cuz I thought you'd get a kick out of it as well.

[@Denjired]

*sigh* Kinda sad to see that you replaced the link in your Games I've Beaten On Stream to this stream instead of the CRT stream where you beat it for the first time. I admit I am contradictory myself in that regard since in the past I also sometimes proposed replacing an older version of a game you beat on stream with a newer one: Roger Rabbit (because the old one was from your beginner's period as a stream and was edited to boot) or Bart Vs. The Space Mutants (because the old one was essentially a playthrough video that was not on stream), for example. Then again, I don't want your Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde video from 2015 to be replace because I love it for the reaction at the end when you beat it ("I gotta tell James about this!"). Sorry for sounding like a "MMMMMMMMMUH, I don't like your links being changed, they should stay like this forever, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHH!!!". You do what you are in the mood for. And should you decide one day to also do Crisis Force on a video capture stream again, that is perfectly fine. GAmes that still need a link on your Games I've Beaten On Stream list: -Ninja Baseball Bat Man (Arcade/Mame) (older stream: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHPGmH6rl86bors&pp=ygUZbWlrZSBtYXRlaSBuaW5qYSBiYXNlYmFsbA%3D%3D) -Commando (NES)
