Youtube tomfoolery

Post by mllarson »

So I decided to post my very first Youtube video today as a response to another video. You should check it out and tell me what you think.
Original Video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikD_yo41Wjg

My response to it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsCjkZrteqw

Oh, and check out some of Robert's (evilralfwiggum's) gameplay videos, including the one where he gets so far in Tetris Party that he breaks the clock and lines cleared counter (and makes it to the top of the rankings):

I'm not going to argue with you there... and I think I'm going to do a followup to it after a bit. So we'll see just how serious a problem I have!

It's the last video that is the first video. In other words, there can be only one ~first~ video.

Don't worry. I had no idea what I was saying during the making of it anyway.

I made another video, this time it's about something anyone who has used an aging NES can relate to...

hehe, nice. I think that's something we're all too familiar with. It's especially frustrating when you're drunk and just wanna play some friggin' Double Dragon.

I have to do the following to get my NES to work:

1. Blow into the cartridge.
2. Blow in the NES.
3. Place the cartridge in the NES, then pull it out slightly, so it makes a nice *crunch* sound when you press it down.
4. Place a penny between the cartridge holder and the NES.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 about 30 times, and enjoy.

That is exactly the reason I only play ROMs on anything cartridge-based now. I know it doesn't have that complete old school feel, but it doesn't have any of the frustrations either, which outweighs anything else.

As for those olden days, my brother and I used a first aid spray to clean our NES games. I haven't the slightest idea how we came to that conclusion or why it worked, but it did.

My NES doesn't work without a game genie.
I realized the moment I fell into the fissure that the book would not be destroyed as I had planned.

Part 2 is up:

I take apart my NES in this video to replace the worn out pin connector. There should be one more part to go, but I'm not done editing it yet so I don't know if three will be enough...
Oh, and the new connector does wonders! You'll see when the rest is up...
