Game Grumps (aka Egoraptor plays some games)

I just got my Wii U last night, and played Nintendo Land. 5-Player Luigi's Mansion and Metroid are super fun. Mario Chase is fun too. Pikmin is one we can totally skip over. Game was pretty lackluster.
 
Sega didn't actually licensed any of that stuff, did they?

Where the hell is Ego getting that from?

What are you talking about? Of course Sega licensed Sonic porn - they ran out of all their money when Bayonetta 2 (a game that Sega was developing and on which they rested all of their financial future) was refused by Sony and Microsoft because of reasons. Thus, licensing cartoon pornography of their mascot was what they did because that's what companies do.
 

Jon: "It's funny because we're both equally handicapped by the controls."
Arin: "Why?"
Jon: "So it evens out."
Arin: "Oh, cuz..."
Jon: "I dunno they're all like motion controlly like, I can't quite... They're pretty good though, for motion controls."

???

ZOOM IN TO SNIPE DAMNIT!

Also fire a power bomb and then shoot it while it's in the air to detonate it instantly

That's not what Arin said, though. He said the Japanese actress was in the movie but got dubbed over. Like I said, pure schoolyard bullshitting like the Bayonetta 2 and Sonic porn stuff. :P

I know. That's what I said!

For the show, I think. Not for the movie though, which was what Arin mentioned.

Anyway, latest Nintendoland ep. was good because when they play against one another and are seriously trying to win, it ends up being funnier than when they're just dicking around.
 
I took the Bayonetta thing to mean that Sega shopped early on with Sony and Microsoft for Sweet Exclusive Moneybags and Nintendo swooped in out of nowhere and was like YES.
 
This series has quickly devolved into jontron just yelling/screaming and them remarking from time to time "oh look at this dang-ass dang character! (insert silly voice)"
 
I just watched the 2 parts of REmake, totally missed it.

Ego: ''This is one of my favorite games.''
*Waste all his bullets on the first zombie*
*Doesn't take the bullets on Kenneth*
Jon: ''Arin knows his shit''
''So, how did they got stuck in that mansion in the first place anyway?''
Ego: ''I think they got locked in. Wait no, there's some zombie outside I guess...''
*Run around*
*Tries every door*

Yeah right, he fucking knows his shit. :P
 
LOL at Jon saying he knows how to play games after them struggling so hard in other games.

Heh, in their previous video alone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1Tk_R5WpYg&list=UU9CuvdOVfMPvKCiwdGKL3cQ#t=1m10s

Arin: "How do I get those guys?"
Jon: "You can shoot up. Also you can press A A."
::presses A A, makes a platform web::
Arin: "What do those do?"
Jon: "They're platforms. You can platform on them."

They kept skipping the tutorial in Metroid Blast. Neither knew you could zoom in to snipe and Arin didn't know how to play at all.

Haha, that's what I mean. They're CONSTANTLY bitching they don't know what to do so the game sucks but then when it does teach you it also sucks. :P

That's pretty much when I stopped watching the RE vids.
 
Your username is quite apt. But did he really drop out of school?

Arin dropped out of high school. TV Tropes said he isn't "book smart" and he totally called them out on it. He explains later on in the episode that he got his GED. I would say that he really didn't suffer skipping out on high school.
 
It's mildly frustrating that they don't realize they can access the jungle/forest overworld in 2K6 in the northwest corner of town. They keep running toward it and then turning right just before they get close to it.

Like, I know they keep complaining that the town has no landmarks and everything, but I've been able to figure this out just from watching. (Of course, I have pokecapn's videos as prior experience, but still...)
 
Jon complains about tutorials.

How many times have they failed at games because they didn't know how to play it?

His fucking first video on his channel, Daikatana, made a giant fuss about the game not having tutorials. He seem kind of weak minded. Like he do not stand his ground and say "Yeah I like this game for this and this. Shame you dont"

Those early reviews aren't very good, either.

I think his main issue is forced tutorials that completely take you out of the experience rather than something a bit more subtle.

Basically I think he's watched Ego's Megaman sequelitis a few too many times.
