Episode 158: But You Can Build Your Own Coaster [Roller Coaster Tycoon]

Nothing memorializes a roller coaster ride like getting hit in the face by a pigeon right as you ride through the camera! It's too intense, and likely to induce nausea, so it's lucky that you went to a park staffed by a sufficient number of handy men. And by that, guys who seem to specialize in mopping up the results of intense roller coaster. But, what's this? Giant tweezers?!

10 Gs on this download make it pretty intense.

Show Notes

(03:00) Such Rhythm. We can fight!

(05:30) Electricity -> Amber -> Ambrose makes sense, I swear.

(09:30) There are apparently some advantages to keeping the idiots alive.

(14:30) Victory conditions, related to loss conditions.

(20:00) Screwing with guests.

(24:00) Not a death trap.

(43:00) The rank is pretty steep.

Next time on Last Time, Shantae!

Episode 157: Crystals are Key! [Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]

In desperate times, a hero must be summoned. This one sucks! I'm sure that's about the 2 billionth time that joke has been used about Kirby, though. In this latest iteration, frolic through cleverly disguised corridors and throw exploding shuriken, wield mighty swords, and... ice skate? Never before has the Pink Wonder been able to combine powers (unless you discount doing so with his animal companions). Remember, with great power, comes great hilarity.

Combine Spark and Silicon to get Download!

Show Notes

(03:30) Tiny discs were so cool, though! Talking about Nintendo's lumbering transition to phone platforms.

(06:30) Not representative of the final product.

(09:45) Thems humans. Nah, they're good eating'!

(11:30) Now in 3-D(warf).

(17:30) We saved you the trouble of playing this game.

(25:00) Shards, man. Shards.

(31:00) Such game. Many multiplayer.

(35:00) Kirby + LTOVG powers = Ranking!

Episode 156: You Can Charge a Man a Lemon, but You Can't Make Him Eat [Mega Man IV]

Nothing says thrilling trilogy (thrillogy?!) quite like a fourth entry. Warp back into the fray to stop a crazy Russian man from making robots with derivative attacks capable of destroying small portions of the planet. Plus, you get new equipment! Sadly, that equipment is not Roll shooting things for you. Instead, it's a chargeable laser! We'll take it.

If you charge you download, it'll be 3 times as powerful!

Show Notes

(02:00) RWBY: Catgirl Adventures.

(06:15) The nine-tailed fox was always the master of many elements. Just like our new best friend.

(11:30) Lara doesn't always have the best line delivery, but apparently that's not a problem new to the reboot.

(19:30) Tibia: it's a game, guys. Kharsek reached level 999, which is the required level to open a door. My pet theory is that the devs didn't actually put a level limit on it, and it's just permalocked.

(24:00) Human farmer necromancers! Geremy's dwarves apparently fought zombie Saitama. It was bound to happen.

(28:30) Dem mans.

(43:30) So... Russian.

(46:00) Charge up a ranking!

Episode 155: High School Gang Simulator [River City Ransom]

Nothing says high school like roving bands of delinquents ruling the streets and banding together based on themed names. Well, at least not in Japan, that is. Here, people can just kidnap innocent girls and hide them in the farthest room to the right, and the only way to afford text books is to punch your enemies so hard they explode into bus fare. Still not sure what the ransom was, though...

Download so hard you earn money?!

Show Notes

(02:00) Your trap card isn't activated!

(05:30) Are good at drawing? Now you can summon monsters! Unless they're not a creative color.

(12:30) Marie best girl.

(15:00) Talking about some technical problems with Pokémon GO. It's now Marco without the Polo. These problems are, or course, distinct from the design problems.

(29:45) Melee at EVO 2016 was poofy.

(31:00) Nash players rock.

(32:30) Legend of Legacy sounds cool, but is kinda mediocre.

(42:30) Gerem, the revered high school brawler, takes to the streets. Take that, The Generic Dudes! It's pretty shiny for a beat 'em up.

(50:00) Beaten to death with rankings.

Next time on Last Time, Mega Man IV!
