You might go back and play F1 Race, Mach Rider and the Famicom Grand Prix games and go "wow, racing games must have sucked before 16 bit hardware" and the answer is no, Nintendo just sucked really bad at it.

Actually at a bit of a wall for this video because I need to find a way to play the Famicom Grand Prix games without having my eyes fucking annihilated by the flashing

I think I'm realizing a part of why Mario Kart World shortcuts can be a little uninteresting to me is that a lot of the time they're just going onto a grind rail to take the tightest corner which has you not actually playing the game for a bit

Nintendo Music skipped it's drop yesterday so it needs to be a special release this week. That's right, it's time to bet on the BS F-Zero Grand Prix soundtrack getting put on there alongside BS F-Zero Grand Prix on SNES NSO!

Tim Sweeney implying he eats burritos with a knife and fork is the whitest CEO thing I've seen

I think this might be the funniest, least flattering photo of an actor ever taken for promotional material

This is the funniest sale I've ever seen in my life

dumb thing

Found a quote for the video that is like, perfect and opens up what was originally going to be a side tangent in the video into "these games would literally not exist without F-Zero"

I don't think I'll ever get over the fact that there's one Sonic character confirmed to have a yaoi folder and it's Infinite IDW give us a second one it'd be funny

I keep thinking about how my winning run had me barely manage to not get smoked by the cigarette ads

Realizing I can't actually hear any version of the Super Mario Land 1 underground theme with doing the vocal samples from the Brawl Remix like I'm a Rhythm Heaven character

Realizing I've not actually played any games released after my birth this year yet.

It's crazy that there's still people who don't know Ike Fire Emblem is gay

Thinking about how some random company made Gimmick 2 and got David Wise on the soundtrack for some unexplainable reason and literally everyone who made the game was like "aw man, I would have loved to work on it they just didn't reach out"

I hate how often Phineas and Ferb musical bits come into my mind cause they're still stuck in my head like 15 years later. youtu.be/FgyonkrEWik?...

I think the craziest part of this marathon is realizing that this was a 3 year evolution and then you skip forward a decade from Pole Position and Sega did this like a year and a half apart. And Daytona was 57-ish FPS while Virtua Racing was 30.

I think the next Kirby game needs to bring back the Animal Buddies as the core puzzle solving/area gimmick mechanic (not just saying this because Rick Air Riders funny, I've felt this since like Robobot basically did it as robots)

Damn the Yetee shirts for GDQ this year are awesome, shame the shipping to Canada like doubles the price thanks America

People say the 3DS 3D effect is a gimmick they turn off after 5 minutes and then never play Sega 3D Classics Power Drift

God this whole video idea is just making me hope M2 gets to do another Sega line, but like, with stuff that's a little more involved than simply a cool version of a Genesis game

Since I modded CrossWorlds music like immediately I kinda forgot that the monster truck using the Ring Racers grow music wasn't just in the game and started humming it to myself seeing the Lego CrossWorlds monster truck set

Been using the Daytona games as a bit of a break from the difficulty of 80s racing games and it's teaching me that manual transmission is actually the sickest shit in the world

Do you think they move him around with audio lures of children like he's Springtrap

Not a big fan of the government (30 30 30)

You can tell something happened when different frames of the Whitest Kids U Know skit get posted.

I think the funniest part of this video I'm planning is that it's just realizing that it's just Sega the entire way down

Out of all Sega games to never get acknowledged in Sega's kart racers, I'm surprised that the game that A) started Sonic's racing journey, B) started the kart racer genre and C) SOUNDS LIKE THIS never got acknowledged.

Hang-On plays so fucking good compared to every game I had to play before this, it's crazy that Sega just figured out the genre in 1985

It's very funny to me how this early history of arcade racers is filled to the brim with ads for cigarettes

It's gonna be weird getting a Mega Man game in a time where we actually have real world context for how bad AI is actually And going by the Robot Master contest they may actually have something to say about that

Dude F1 Race sucks fucking ass, goes from boring from not capturing the nuances of control and sense of speed of Pole Position to "play a gauntlet of 5 Pole Position tracks without bumping anything once" while being a choppy mess visually

I like how every day I'm not on Twitter it proves more and more to be the completely correct decision.

I might be the only person to be spending their 2026 by writing about why F1 Race for the Famicom, not to be confused with Famicom Grand Prix: F1 Race or F-1 Race for the Game Boy, is an incredibly dull clone of a game with 10 times less tracks

IMO this site may need some more flags to hide images because bsky moderation tagging images as "adult content" is like a 50/50 on if a character is shirtless/showing cleavage or getting fucked silly

Pole Position II, despite being "Pole Position but there's more tracks" is weirdly enough, not enough for me to like it more than Pole Position cause the added tracks all kinda suck lol

Ok if Bananza actually used the DK Rap like this I think it might actually have been the best game ever

Zelda fans officially failed the challenge by not making any Quino art for all of 2025.

2026 MEDIA THREAD Also probably a preview to my devious schemes and plans for the new year.

2026 confirmed at least pretty decent year all things considered

Fucked up thought: Mother 3's 20th anniversary is less than 4 months away. If Anything™ is happening for it this year, we will find out very soon. Possibly in the first Nintendo Direct of the year.

Thinking about how the lets player who constantly had people drawing her as Rosalina for like the past 6 years came out publicly as trans earlier this year, and like. Yeah I wonder where that came from.

You ever think about how the character they gave the render for how Mario Kart World costumes work is the character who's tied with the other character from his series for the least amount of costumes

The SMRPG remake framing itself as Geno granting a wish for the game to be remade is still so fucking awesome

I still think the funniest thing that happened is that people wanted the *SEGA RALLY DEVS* to cancel a racing game that would release with crossplay on Switch 1 for not looking as pretty as games exclusive to Switch 2 (one of which has occasional performance issues)

Every time I see the Dark Urkel video I'm reminded that's just what Archie Sonic Werehog would canonically sound like

HOW MUCH LONGER NOW...? MY RHYTHM HEAVEN.

Thought about this Vinny clip again
