Rising Stuff: Behind the Store Episode 2: Browning and Monster Pro Wrestling (both PC Engine)
Well, you didn’t ask for it, but we made another video anyway. In Episode 2 we cover Browning and Monster Pro Wrestling. Both for the PC Engine. Since Youtube has a 10 minute limit, this had to be cut into 2 parts.
Part 1 is Browning:
Part 2 is the even better MONSTER PRO WRESTLING!
And there you have it. You guys want more of these?
Forgotten Worlds- 20 year old gem…
I recently purchased this from Kevin & Alex (mint condition chaps!), it was a great favourite of mine back in the day and still plays fantastically.
I’ll be looking forward to playing this Co-op with my younger brother…
Enjoy the video guys
New introduction to the show…
Hey guy’s, I re-worked the introduction to my show!
Insanity Pre-Orders!
Insanity is a remake by Aetherbyte Studios of the classic arcade game Berzerk by Stern Electronics released in 1980. This game was also released on the Atari 2600, 5200 and the Vectrex. “You are trapped in a robot infested labyrinth on a distant planet. Your only hope of escape is to traverse room after room in search of the way out! The only problem is… the robots are out to destroy you. Better make sure your phazor is fully charged.”

If you pre-order, you will receive a soundtrack and a signed & numbered copy of the game! The Release date is aimed to be 24 October 2009.
Also be sure to check out Aetherbyte Studios Website, aetherbyte.com, for future and upcoming projects.

Figuring out Battle Heat for the PC-FX.
Hey folks. Wonder what’s up with this video? Well, It’s a recording of me playing Battle Heat.
If you’re familiar with this game, you probably don’t know how to play it regardless. I’m writing this in the hopes that I can rectify that. As you can see here, I beat this game and made it look relatively easy.
I was writing this guide originally as a “bounty”, not expecting that I’d have to post it here myself. Harrrr. Some of the writing is kinda goofy, kinda like myself.
I kinda wrote the guide as if expecting it to be put out in raw text or a GameFAQs article, so it probably won’t stylistically match with the rest of the stuff here. Yadda yadda yadda. Point is, I wrote this guide hoping it’ll educate some people on how to play this game - especially considering that there haven’t really been many serious attempts at a guide for this game before this point.
You can see some info that’s actually -helpful- with the more button. While a lot of the stuff is requested stuff from Sensei and Alex, I’ll just tell you right here that the most important things you need to know are to Defend and Jump Kick.

Famicom Dojo: Episode 1 Commentary
No, it’s not Season 2 yet, but fear not! As we march inexorably forward toward the premiere, we thought we’d share a little treat with you off the new Season 1 DVD!
Check out the Famicom Dojo Video Netcast for a peek at the extras in store with the DVD version of Episode 1 — with commentary! Just a sample, though, since this is 1/6 of all the commentaries we have to offer, but far from the majority of special features.

Retrospektive 2009
On 05./06. september we had a retro exhibiton in northern germany. Many retro computers and consoles were shown, of course most of the exhibits were also playable.
Scorp.ius, the man behind the “Retro Snippet”, made a video of this event. The language in the video is german, but most of the spoken words are greetings or is self explaining.
But one thing is worth to explain a bit more: From minute 6:43 on you see Oliver Knagge, the man with one of the largest collection of Amiga games in the world. The exhibition was organized by him and was held in the guesthouse of his parents, where most of his stuff is stored in some rooms. So he proudly showed his collection to every interested guest.
OK, enough written, now enjoy the video of this cool event. Please ask if you have some questions or if i should translate some parts of the video
