Notes:
*This was a fun episode to do, much more so than I thought it would be. I had to replace a ribbon cable on the 64DD after disassembling it for the stop motion animation. Now I have 6 spare ribbon cables.

Release Date: 03/5/23 Runtime: 28:47

SNES - Rapjam Volume 1, Bronkie the Brontosaurus
Game Boy Color - Test Drive Off-Road 3

Notes:
*After I had edited the Bronkie the Brontosaurus segment, I redid it with the Monster Truck yelling voice (whatever you wanna call it) in a similar fashion to how I did F-16 Fighting Falcon in a previous episode about weak games. But it ended up not being that funny, so I left the segment as it currently is.

Notes:
*I had lots of fun doing the skeleton end skit, mainly because it's so absurd.

*There is an editing error around 5 minutes and 20 seconds in, during the Jurassic Park arcade part. The sound repeats/plays lower and there is a black screen. I remember going back a few weeks after I had completed the epsiode to update the Jurassic Park arcade section. I don't recall the information that I was changing/updating, but apparently in the process a few things got shifted and the minor glitch now exists on Youtube forever!

Games Shown:

NES - WURM
Master System - Cyborg Hunter
Genesis - Beyond Oasis

Notes:
*I had to play through Cyborg Hunter twice because of the bug mentioned in the episode, but that gave me a good opportunity to capture it being played in both PSG and FM sound. No regrets!
