WTF WED! BANJO KAZOOIE, BLASTOISE, AND VEGA ALL GET IN A STREET FIGHT...


I love Banjo Kazooie.

After Super Mario 64, it might just be my favorite N64 game. It is, technically speaking, superior to SM64 and creates a world of fun puzzles and platforming filled with so much character. Heck, if it weren't for the pure "like OMG I can beat SM64 a million times and love triple-jumping" nostalgia that SM64 gives me, this would be my go to game on the system.

Then Microsoft bought Rare and poorly used all of their properties...

For this, I am a sad Bojo.

GUEST GRUMPS: GRANT KIRKHOPE



I'm not gonna lie; I am not a street fighter fan. I am not even a fighting game fan. The only fighting games I ever really enjoy are Smash Bros. and anime fighters with gameplay like in the DBZ Budokai and Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm series.

BUT, I appreciate whacky characters and I do own a copy of Super Street Fighter 4, just in case a guest wishes to play them some cell-shaded combos out with their favorite character.

In Mortal Kombat, it seems there aren't really any rules except that you can't help out another "kombatant". But in Street Fighter, the competitors are supposed to be in martial arts tournaments with fair stakes. Despite this, there are character who wield weapons, magic, and other unorthodox and seemingly should-be illegal tactics....

Like Vega. And his "claoww".



Let's end with a question:

If I were to do a Let's Play of a Pokémon ROM with commentary, possibly with a Nuzlocke Challenge, which game should I play first? Pokémon Yellow and Emerald are my two frontrunners, at the moment.
