Joe does a fantastic job since Dave chose to step aside (Dave made the right choice, family should come first), I thought each episode would be shorter since it's only Joe... Happy I was wrong .

[@kakashi101able]

I wish Dave could comeback every once in awhile though

[@gochasingwaterfalls9970]

I agree, I thought for sure he’d cameo in the NES episode! Joe is great of course, it’s just nice to see Dave every now and then. Best video game show ever though.

[@jasonhubbard6775]

Say whaaaaaaaa????????

[@mr.vidjagamez9896]

​@@unocualqu1era the game was actually based on a sci-fi movie that was released in 1993 and the main character in it was played by the same actor who was the detective in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" I never got the hype the film always gets, its always pissed me off how it overshadowed my favorite cult-classic film that came out at about the same time, called "Jurassic Park"

Just passing by to tell that the main purpose of the mapper chips found in the cartridges is to BLOW THE HELL UP the 40KB ROM limit the NES normally have. They managed to shove a WHOLE MEGABYTE of data in metal slader glory with this. Also kirby is actually HUGE with it's 768KB of pure puff

[@dan_loup]

@@bobafruti Indeed

[@thestripedmenace]

@Brandon Kick TBF, the NES isn't as "far inferior" to the SNES as people often tend to think... They essentially share the same processor and resolution, but Nintendo cheated around these limitations with extra graphical power, a Sony soundchip (an earlier version of the one used on the Neo-Geo and the PS1) and, of course, plenty of advanced mapper chips

[@dan_loup]

@@thestripedmenace the snes CPU is quite faster than the NES one. Not only it have a big clock advantage (3.58/2.68 Mhz versus 1.78Mhz), as it can do "16bit operations". Well as in two quick successive 8bit operations, but it's still quite faster to use em than using two 8bit ops.

@@fcukugimmeausername Joe already made a community update on his youtube explaining the whole thing behind dave leaving. It has nothing to do with a breakup, Dave's life just got too busy with his job and all that and he just didn't have as much time to work on game sack as he'd like, not to mention he was burnout from GS so he decided to just leave the show and spend more time with his family as well. He and Joe are still great friends.

NES episode without Dave makes me a little sad, fantastic episode though :)

[@ZealSeraph]

Still one of the greatest gaming platforms ever created. The games may be simple and primitive in today's standards, but they're still just as fun as they were back then. And the NES music is in a league of its own.

I want to add this to the review of Rad Racer: the turbo only needs to be held up until you reach max speed. After you hit 255 km/h, you can stop holding up and just hold the gas and you'll maintain the speed. You only need to use turbo when you lose speed.

One tip I discovered on Rush N Attack on how to avoid checkpoints when you die and start exactly from the spot you died...start a 2 player game and let the 2nd player run out of lives and once this is done, continue playing normally with player 1. You will notice that you will respawn in the exact spot you died from now on :)
