Any particular 'main' game that we might be starting the evening off with?

I was wondering what to lead with, for the stream.

No idea, we did Mario Party last time, so probably not that.

We'll probably just jump around between random games.

Goldeneye is popular, maybe lead with that?

Thanks for the games. :D

Here's a link to this weeks extreme stream...

Well that’s a new one…

Had no idea that the first Pokemon Stadium features no sort of tiebreaker, I know the second one does (featuring a Quiz-Off); so that really threw me for a loop! :o
 

Always nice when you’re still learning something new about a 25 year old game! :D

A Link to the Past Four Swords Adventures and Metroid: Zero Mission are being added to GBA today, while Perfect Dark and Turok are being added to N64. 

 

EDIT: as pointed out by Glen below, this is Four Swords, not Four Swords Adventures! Edited to still show the speed of my fingers betraying me :p

Four Swords Adventures

You gave me a hype attack for a moment there!

It's Four Swords. Adventures is a completely different game.

Still, Perfect Dark, and Four Swords? Oh hell, yes! Time to finish what Mario Party started, and destroy my friendship with @S.C.G and @BowserBasher!

That's my bad, typing on my phone faster than I can think -- apologies for the hype attack! 

I'll add a note that it's Four Swords :peace:

It's a bit strange that we need a separate mature app in Europe because of American age ratings. These games are PEGI 16 in Europe, which is the same rating as the main N64 NSO app.

 

Even if they do release Conker at some point, that's also considered PEGI 16 now.

Probably for consistency reasons.  US and EU use the same NSO apps as each other.

It’s also why it uses the hilariously titled “Mature” moniker, since that’s the ESRB rating it refers to.

Damn, I'd completely forgotten about the controller remapping options in the Switch system settings. :indeed:
After recreating a preset I saw online (with the left and right sticks swapped over and a few other button swaps) I can actually play the N64 FPS games using a standard controller without throwing up! :laughing::yay:

@S.C.G @BowserBasher You ain't Mature enough for Four Swords online.

You have no idea what you're in for...

But I like friendships...oh well, let's kill it! KILL IT ALL!

@Ike we currently have 3 people for Four Swords after Mario Kart. We need a fourth, you up for it?

Coolio! Just a heads up, we're giving ourselves appropriate names.

So I'm Glink, and we have Dink and Sink playing as well.

Perfect Dark is absolutely bloody amazing.

That is all :D

I'm looking forward to playing it properly, I think I abused the cheat codes back in t'day. I think Chicago Stealth and the Villa/dam level (with the sniper rifle at the beginning) were the only ones I could do properly.

Fun times! That last platform was difficult.

Yeah, takes some getting used to, what with you losing all momentum when you jump.
Those 300 rupees I got there made all the difference.

By the way, heads up, but if you go to the options on the file select screen, you can speed up the text speed for cutscenes (And also, select "Dark" for brightness settings).
Holding B makes it go even faster.

Not gonna lie, I was legit proud of myself on the ice boss, when I had an epithany, and utilised the share screen function to show everyone where to aim.
That feature is mad useful!

Right, got a few moments here.

There's a lesson to be learnt from that clip above, no idea what, but I'm sure there is.

Such a perfect moment of pure greed being someone's downfall. That's Four Swords!
