The 2 biggest financial mistakes I made as a kid were trading in my copy of Metroid Prime Trilogy to GameStop and not buying a house in 2008.

[@justjordan2478]

We all traded in games we had no business trading in as children 😂. You’d be lucky to have gamers as parents. Lucky for my kids if physical media makes a resurgence I will not be letting them trade in games .

[@mgshock]

Sold a complete GBC Metal Gear Solid for $5 at a garage sale, because that's all it was worth at the time.

[@NigelMelanisticSmith]

@@justjordan2478 true. Me and my dad knew something was up when Gamestop gave us like $10 instead of the normal $2, but I guess there must have been some other game younger me thought was worth it lol.

Fun Fact: If you remove the disc for Super Mario All-Stars on the Wii, the game can still be played fully due to the game size being small enough to be held by the RAM of the Wii!

[@zzyy1934]

There's something funny about Scott's overuse of the word "b*tch"

[@DeathInTheSnow]

Fun fact about the Zelda Collector's Edition - it was the first time you could play the games in PAL regions at 60hz. Normally games _from_ PAL regions get speed-adjusted for export (like the WipEout series), but for some reason, many Japanese companies didn't bother to do it the other way. It definitely mattered to them though, as Capcom would speed adjust games like Test Drive 5 to run at the correct speed when importing. Anyway, I still have my copy from way back when. I got it at Toys R Us in a bundle with Pokémon Colosseum, Pokémon Box, the GBA cable, Monster Jam, Scorpion King and the Zelda set. It also came with a really sweet bag to hold it all in! It was also like, £100 or £120. Toys R Us was like that sometimes. I remember them having N64s for £99, but the games were £63,99 (initially...). Funny, because they cost that much now, yet people are more prepared to pay for them at the price, even including inflation. Seems like a racket to me.

[@SuperM789]

pokemon colluseum + pokemon box for 100 wtaf

[@severeerror52]

It was also the first home console game ever released on PAL to ONLY run at 60hz with no 50hz mode. So that's neat.

[@noobtuber26]

@@severeerror52 That's not true. Most games would show a 50 or 60 Hz prompt when you started them. A few games (like the Mario Party games) would exclusively run in 50 Hz mode and a few games (like Metroid Prime 2) only supported 60 Hz mode. If a game only supported 60 Hz mode it would get a big red "60 Hz only" mark on the box cover to indicate this. The Wii includes a 50 Hz option in the menu, though I don't know how it affected the software. Since the Wii U has backwards compatibility with the Wii, I'd assume it has a 50 Hz option as well but I can't remember.

[@wils35]

I remember when they did the N64 Goldeneye Bundle, But the best was when Nintendo sold GameCubes for £99.99

[@obsoleteworlds]

And in contrast they gave us the PAL 50hz rom for the Mario Wii collection!

[@Fools_Requiem]

A great thing about the Kirby Collection is that it has Kirby's Dreamland 3 front the SNES, which was super expensive on physical media. If you want all the main line Kirby games on physical media, this was the thing to get.

[@usermcskull4713]

Dream Land 3 never released in Europe until the Wii Virtual Console, so it was the first european physical release of that game edit: forgot Dream Collection wasn't in europe lol

[@Fools_Requiem]

@@usermcskull4713 that sucks. It makes sense, though. Dreamland 3 was one of the last games made for the SNES. Did you guys get Street Fighter Alpha 2? That was also a super late SNES game.

[@Lumario23]

To the point Scott made about Luigi Mansion Nintendo missed the opportunity to have all 3 Luigi’s Mansion games in one system

​@tybraker27 yes it did. It was a full blown remake. Not a re-release. Not a remaster. It was worth every penny of the 60. Wanting it for under full price is entitlement

[@drackyslime]

You don’t have to beat Advance Wars 1 to unlock 2, but there is a little warning message if you try to play 2 first that says it recommends completing 1 before going into it due to story and gameplay continuations

[@drackyslime]

Also more people should buy and play reboot camp it rules

[@charlespobeemensah]

You speak the truth 👍

[@wils35]

Was £20 at one point in Smyth's, bargain. I see that and felt kicked paying 50 on release.

[@jaidens.g.1920]

the game asks you if you're a newcomer or a veteran, and newcomers have to finish 1 to unlock 2, while veterans can play 2 out of the gate

Isn’t it crazy that they didn’t include The Pie Factory in DK for NES because of cartridge limitations, then just added DK Jr. to the cart years later.

The Wii U digital rerelease of the Metroid Prime Trilogy is the most insane Nintendo deal of all time. The best versions of three of the best games ever made... for under £20.

[@Whiteythereaper]

Now you're looking at $40 each of they ever bother releasing 2 and 3 on the Eshop

[@dapperfan44]

Yeah, I regret not double dipping and buying it digitally. If something happens to my physical copy, I'm screwed.

[@chronicnugget5595]

​@@dapperfan44 my guy homebrewing your WiiU and backing up your physical copy is incredibly easy, absolutely worth it

[@Sargewithnumber]

I am so happy to see that Scott bought Advance wars 1+2 reboot camp. To answer his question, you don'T actually need to beat the first game to play the second. In fact, they will tell you that you can unlock it right now, but it may spoil the end of the first game since the main badguy is show at the very beginning of the second game. Now if only Nintendo could finally patch some of the massive issue in the game that are still present more than a year after...

[@bcj842]

lol they put that Wind Waker demo and the short video on the Collector's Disc just to fill the extra space on the disc more than likely. All those games took up only a fraction of the disc's capacity.

[@bland9876]

I found it so strange that the Wii version of Mario All Star is missing Mario World like WTF?

[@ThisIsCSDX]

Ah, see, I know why emulation's such a hassle for you, Scott. You primarily use Mac.

[@andrewbarron3487]

The menu music on the Zelda collection is maybe the best rendition of the Zelda theme ever made

[@scarpergirl]

100% yes! I feel like every other version that came afterwards (or even before) has been disappointing because this one set the bar so high. It's got the hints of mystery and folklore the original melody brings to the table, but the arrangement makes it exciting and adventurous. The worst one for me is the Link to the Past version which seems withheld and stoic. This version is definitely the one that goes all out. Links Awakening is a close second followed by the original Zelda

Another way to get that Zelda Collector's Edition Promotional disc was to fill out a form from a Nintendo Power issue, which is how I got mine. Didn't know it was also a part of a Gamecube bundle.

For quite awhile I was only aware of getting that collection through Nintendo Power, which was how I also acquired it.

Re: Zelda Collector's Edition, the port of Majora's Mask was prone to crashing at random, and the sound jutters a bit when moving between areas. It was my first time playing through MM, and the tension from the constant threat of crashing was real.

I know 3D All Stars isn't great but I will defend it for these 3 points: It was the first time some of the cutscene music in Sunshine was released isolated from sound effects and speech First time the Shindou version of 64 was released in English Sunshine's widescreen is still more polished than any fanmade widescreen solution for Sunshine (at least that I'm aware of)

even the crappiest of rereleases can have some redeeming qualities.

Imteresting note about the Wii Sports + Resort combo disc: the two save files it makes for each game are different from the save files the two discs make.

[@Doug_MacArthur]

I appreciate you going into detail about the pros/cons and the differences between official and unofficial emulation roughly midway into the video I think. As someone who really hasn't dabbled with hacking or experimenting with illegal emulation in any capacity whatsoever before, you really cleared up and demystified what's the appeal to both in a succinct way. And in case there are those wondering why I have never engaged with illegal emulation before, it is not stemming from this moral superiority and moral righteousness/high ground, instead rather it is from a severe lack in technical expertise and skill and also I am absolutely petrified to even attempt or go near illegal emulation for fear of what it could result in for my PC and the consequences that could ensue if I screw something up on the technological side of things
