OMGame Boy #31 "Tased and Confused"

WTFamicom with Dan and Nick ·

2022/08/29

In 1999 you were probably doing one of two things - preparing for Y2K or playing a PS1 game where you can tase a guy long enough they would catch on fire. On today's bonus episode we take on a highly classified mission that involves mystery, murder and a main character who is pretty much a raging sociopath. Lock on to your target and hit that roll button because we're talking about the gaming franchise that didn't know when to quit - Syphon Filter.

Episode #43 - NEScape Plan

WTFamicom with Dan and Nick ·

2022/08/15

It's a place that goes by many names. To the people inside it's "Slammer", "Big House" and "Club Fed". If you've only ever seen it in a videogame it's known simply as prison. And if that's the extent of your knowledge then we are in some deep, deep trouble. What's the layout of this place? Is Wario a guard we can pay off? Should I hide PS1 games in my butt again? On today's detained episode we talk about prison levels and characters that got locked up. We even chat about our own arrest records and

Babies -- either you have them or you hate them. Nine times out of ten people fall in both categories. You probably had to sell your entire videogame collection just to afford to raise one.

ARE YOU READY TO ROCK? HOW 'BOUT EVERYBODY IN THE BACK! WE CAN'T HEAR YOU! No, seriously we can't because we're getting old. All we do nowadays is wear old band shirts and talk about old videogames. We live in the past 24/7 and we're total frauds. But isn't that what rock n' roll is all about - pretending you're someone else? Wouldn't it be cool if bands made videogames where they made you think you ARE the band? On today's rocking episode, we take you up the stairway to heaven to discuss bands that

On today's bonus episode we talk Independence Day videogames inspired by the 1996 film and also games starring some of our favorite founding fathers. So get them fireworks lit and in the wise words of Ben Franklin, "let's kick the tires and light the

It's finally beach season, folks! Grab your sunscreen, oversized flips flops and the beach towels you stole from your ex and let's hang ten! We won't be joining you because if video games have taught us anything, it's that beach levels are quite dangerous. They're filled with 90's soda mascots, future space marines and even monkeys on surf boards - it's a real freak show. On today's episode we dive in to some famous (and infamous) summer getaway levels that involve sand, waves, and one very angry

WTFamicom with Dan and Nick ·

2022/05/09

BUSTED! Shut your mouth, spread your legs and hand over any illegal drugs you have! And if this is anything like a videogame you probably used those drugs to slow time or assist you during the filming of the Street Fighter movie. Since the 80's, the FBI has monitored drug use in gaming so we're renting out a van that says FLOWERS on the outside and finally monitoring them back! On today's episode we talk about drug levels, infiltrate gaming addiction and more. So grab your plain clothes, and let's

WTFamicom with Dan and Nick ·

2022/04/25

Women belong in gaming, period. And when we say "women" by that we mean "brains". And when we say "in gaming" we really mean "in jars, deep in outer space". Regardless we support them. On today's bonus episode we take an in-depth look at one of the most important female figures in videogame history - Mother Brain from 1986's NES classic 'Metroid'.

What makes a mascot? Is it the cool clothes, the reckless attitude, the finger-wagging guilt they inherit by association? Who knows and frankly, who cares? In today's bonus episode we sift through a cavalcade of videogame characters that for one reason or another, have sold their soul to sell a game.

Episode #38 - Genesis Does What Vatican't

WTFamicom with Dan and Nick ·

2022/02/21

There are two questions we should ask ourselves before we die - what is God's plan and how many videogame consoles did he own growing up? He's not a real gamer if it's less than three, bottom line. From the onset, religion in videogames has always been a taboo topic - but why? On today's episode we finally get real and take a theological approach to our favorite hobby. So in the name of the Father, Son and Sega Genesis...let's pray.
