Spot the Sneak is no joke the best mode in this game. I played this game a ton when I was younger, and never failed to play that mode when friends were over.

I Agree

They didn't account for Jon. Nobody ever does.

[@adamrhodes9533]

It's an estimation. Based on, most likely, four human players on relatively similar skill levels.

[@Rie-Vinaca]

Jon, what more needs to be said

[@dragontj5164]

PopstarChamp in fairness The game did say it should take 15-25 Minutes so it still wasn't wrong.

[@GameAlicornLuna]

'I'm going to shoot some Ganglions!' Well, we know when this was recorded.

[@Rexaura888]

Princess Luna I mean we’ve known since Saturday. Also that statement alone doesn’t really narrow things down considering XCX was a 2015 game not does it help that Emile also referenced the Ganglion the first time they played the minigame for TRG...

[@galladeiator]

Rexaura888 was this recording from October of 2017?

[@Rexaura888]

Galladeiator Yup.

[@takanuinuva]

What is that saying from?

[@Rexaura888]

takanuinuva Not really a saying so much as it is a reference. To Xenoblade Chronicles X specifically.

0:38 Considering the video length... 2:44 So why is it that when the Miis are excited in this game they perform the chicken dance (minus the claps). 4:13 So, that means you got Croconaw points and Jon, Wobuffer points? 5:55 You know you’ve played too much BotW when you expect the Miis to go into bullet time just before throwing a dart. 7:40 Hopefully Pippi hasn’t taken to chewing wires like Bagel. I’ve heard that a rabbit’s teeth can pierce and cut deeper than a cat’s. 8:44 Gotta love how sudden it is, like you don’t even have a chance to recover unlike other similar minigames. 9:28 Boy did he do that. 10:40 I remember hearing that either Danganronpa V3 or P5 reference XCX, bringing up the Ganglion and Prone in the same sentence or something like that.

[@emitimes14]

The XCX was indeed in DRV3. I'm pretty sure it was in case 1, though it might have been in case 2 if I'm remembering things incorrectly.

[@rayjams3165]

Jana Nope, it's indeed in Chapter 1, right at the beginning of the investigation.

[@Rexaura888]

Jana I wonder if that was in the Japanese script as well. It’s kind of an odd reference too seeing how the two are pretty much unrelated with XCX being not popular enough I feel to warrant that reference (unlike the Jojo references in Persona and other media since Jojo’s extremely popular and more in the mainstream in Japan by comparison). The only link I can see is that you’ve got Bang Zoom VAs voicing both XCX characters and the animated Danganronpa characters (at least I know that the animation’s Kirigiri and Elma share the same English dub VA), and that’s kind of a weak link seeing how many other projects the Bang Zoom VAs are involved in with nary an XCX reference to be found.

[@Rexaura888]

Ray Jams I have to wonder what the context behind the reference is as I’m pretty sure none of the DRV3 cast have a talent relating to games save for the cosplayer (I know very little about DRV3 and DR in general as a whole outside of the characters, who dies, and the basic plots of most of the stories).

[@rayjams3165]

Rexaura888 Thing is, the character that makes the reference, Tsumugi Shirogane, makes a lot of other references throughout the game that you also wouldn't really expect. It is indeed pretty weird that Xenoblade X would be one of them, but after seeing some of her other ones, it honestly feels normal. Although, I think the XCX one is the only game related one though, all the other ones are anime related, if I remember correctly. There's also a reference to Pokemon S&M, but it's made by another character and it's in the bonus mode.

[@Universer2012]

Despite being obligatory, nice Halo reference, Chugga! Anyway, it may be possible to do pole vault jumps that far in real life once the Moon or Mars is colonized.

[@gay_plant_veil]

what video is Jon talking about at 4:51?

[@xngurevar7521]

I think it might be this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4KucnuqiL1ob9E Pole vault starts at 13:50

[@Rexaura888]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/anuxaoCJi6qslbM Unless I’m mistaken and for those curious, I believe this is the TAS Jon was referring to: Decathlon for the Atari 2600. The guy doesn’t quite go into space as he put it, but he goes high enough that he clips through the ceiling for a few seconds before coming down. There is another video of the pole vaulting portion though wherein the player somehow causes the pole vaulter to float a few pixels above the ground and across the screen with the momentum built. The attempt counts as a Miss since the jump wasn’t cleared, but we learn that from this glitch the screen has wrap-around since the guy comes flying in from the left side of the screen after leaving through the right side.

[@De2Venner]

Thank you. I was curious to see the video too after Jon mentioned it.

[@AimlessWandererSano]

For anyone wondering about the tas video Jon talked about go search tas Olympics it's the second video that shows up

[@FrostMonolith]

4:46 it's Hyper Olympics in Atlanta TAS, with "ANKIMO" as the player name.

[@giratinaorigin]

10:17 Chugga asks if "Round" as in turn, is "Round" in spanish. It translates into "La Vuelta" which roughly translates to "Round, turn, or lap". Also, "Round" in english has so many definitions based on how it's used.

[@rayjams3165]

I'm surprised Jon sounds "Eh" about Cliff Riders on this one. Wasn't he super excited about it when he first played it on the last recording session? Unless he was being ironic or something, which would make sense considering how much he hates motion controls.

[@JBJune]

"Tim got Mew points!" If that's the case: Emile got Croconaw points, Jon got Wobbuffet points, and Marius got Moltres points.

[@aidanobrien5591]

[@adamrhodes9533]

...Didn't Emile make the Ganglion joke the first time that mini-game came up?

[@Rexaura888]

Adam Rhodes Yeah, but you can’t expect him to remember that when he couldn’t recall what minigames they had and hadn’t covered when they came back.

[@cartooncritic7045]

Having recordings six months apart from each other can make one forget about the jokes they made in that time. That's why when you binge-watch Emile and Masae's Mario Party videos you have Emile bringing up Jon renaming Mario Party terms six times since those boards were recorded months apart from each other.

[@adamrhodes9533]

I'm well aware of the gap. I was mostly just asking. I mean, how many times did Emile mention Reyn Time years ago in one recording session? He's... A bit obsessed. Not that I can blame him. The Xenoblade games are amazing.

[@Rexaura888]

[@Rexaura888]

LuigianoMariano Likely when it was released? He’s been on Gamexplain discussions about it, has commented on it over social media, and has referenced Black Tar on occasion.

[@noircore]

LuigianoMariano Emile doesn't have to LP a game to have already played it, y'know. In fact, he has to have already played a game before LPing it.

Wait the AI got hit in the pool minigame but didn’t get knocked out D:

[@pion2619]

Who else heard the Xenoblade Chronicles X reference?

[@PIKMINROCK1]

Oh that's why Jon lost first is original time they did this. The pool ball hitting you doesn't guarantee that you'll be knocked out. Still a bit stupid though

[@Rexaura888]

PIKMINROCK1 No, Jon lost originally because although he and the AI were thrown out at the same time, he was the first of the two to go offscreen due to being closer to the edge of the screen he flew off of.

[@PIKMINROCK1]

Rexaura888 yeah. And the reason why it doesn't count from the moment you get hit is that if the ball is slow enough, you are only knocked back a little bit like Tim did in the beginning. A smarter way to do it is to calculate whether the player is going to get knocked as they get hit and then determine their placing. It's a bit more complicated but that should barely cost any resources on a Wii U unless the ball is going lightspeed
