The next few series of uncuts are gonna be batch posted because we played some LONG ASS GAMES. Also I kinda wanna make this thread not last an eternity, so there’s that too.
Battletoads
Yes, folks, we have Battletoads. The penultimate challenge is here and BOY HOWDY does this game live up to its reputation. I don’t know if this truly breaks the record for proportion of footage to the final product, but it’s a top 3 contender to be sure.
A good amount of the footage I used for the info segment came from the Rare Replay documentary on battletoads as a franchise. It’s a pretty interesting watch, especially given their transparency on things like the cynical nature of the game’s creation and also how intentionally bullshit the arcade version was.
NEXT TIME: THE FINAL GAME. But it’s probably gonna take some extra time to edit. Please wait patiently and enjoy the uncut releases in the meantime!

A duo of Catraps! The final duo. Just like how the game ended! That’s all I got.
More uncuts folks! Now it’s time for massive amounts of rpg footage. Including things like: getting lost, dying, and forgetting to save!
WOW I ENTIRELY FORGOT TO GET ON THESE. Weeks been nuts yall. Stay safe.
You know I was really hoping to have a real update by now, but the universe had other plans. Those plans were primarily getting me sick as hell for a week. See y’all soon, I promise!
Accidentally took a bit of an off week there. Life has been hectic, and there’s a charity stream on its way that has halted a lot of progress. Even so, things look pretty good, and I’m going to try and get the final episode out by early July. Look forward to it!
We’re really getting down to it! Ep 50 is fully underway and should be ready for early access this weekend! I hope the air of finality terrifies you as much as me! :v
Is this even different from the edited version? I dunno! What I DO know is that we got episode 50 coming THIS FRIDAY so I hope everyone is excited!!
Metroid II: Return of Samus
We’re finally here. The fiftieth shade of the grayscale. METROID 2. When I started this series, in all its self indulgence, I could think of no more fitting a title than this to cap it all off. I tried to put everything I had into this one, which has lately been less and less, but I hope you feel it all the same.Theres still some bonus streams to edit, a couple extra videos, but this is and forever will be the proper finale to the LP’s main body. It’s hard to put into words how it feels to actually be able to say that. We did it yall!!! Thank you to everyone who stuck around for this project. Thank you to all the lovely people who posted art, factoids, and their personal stories. I’ve loved reading every single one of them. It’s kept me going the whole way through.
I wanna hear more, though! I did all 50 of my games, so now it’s open season. Tell me what games impacted you most. Tell me what games I missed and was a huge idiot for not including! Tell me…well I think I’ll save the third option for now. I have a proper thread closer in mind. Until then, stay tuned, or if not, see you next mission!!

Comin through with some more uncuts! Should still have a few more things int he pipeline, but recovering from surgery has admittedly made it a lil slow. Should get there one way or another though!
THE RANKING OF SNAKES
It is here! Just as we promised, we took a deep look into all 32 snakes featured in 50 Shades of Grayscale. Buckle up for an excessively thorough discussion on 4 colored pixels, and gird your loins for some shocking final rankings! Once that’s over, get back here and tell us how fucking wrong we were with your own rankings! Or just yell at us for something else.
It’s time to round up all of our opinions into one neat little package! Join us as we argue the merits of Kirby, the badness of Lolo, and the greatness of Metroid 2! Don’t forget to let me know how wrong I am and post your own hot takes via your own version of the tierlist!
A late set of uncuts, after an impromptu week skip. These final days are gettin a lil loopy, but we’re getting there! Look forward to a few more fun things.
BONUS: Antonball Deluxe
SURPRISE! An extra special bonus even I couldn’t predict got recorded! It’s a bit of a reach to consider this bonus content for this whole thing, but dammit if I don’t appreciate that silly lil brick breaker game. I hope you can appreciate it, too! Look forward to potentially more surprises this weekend.
Let’s Talk About Pokemon
Happy TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY to the thread! I got ONE LAST SURPRISE FOR YA. Though is it really? Did you really think I was going to gush about the Game Boy for all these years and not dedicate some time to it’s most massive success? Not gonna lie, though, it’s kind of a miracle this video got made in time. For as much as this idea had been kicking around my head, it was hard to form it into words. Much less get footage that satisfied me. in the end, though, I buckled down and spilled my heart for a few minutes. I hope you enjoy it!
With this video, that will do it for official updates to the thread, save for a few uncut video cleanups. Thank you to everyone who has stuck around and is STILL sticking around to enjoy. I got a lot of housekeeping to do on archival stuff, so the thread will be open for a lil bit longer. I’ll be checking in plenty!

Now that this is all said and done, I do truly wonder which game has the highest proportion of footage to end product. By pure percentages, Battletoads may take it. See for yourself!
And there we have it! The final bit of uncut footage. All that’s left is for me to finish cleaning up the table of contents and extras. Thank you everyone who came to watch, do fanart, or just share your stories! Supremely grateful that my first proper foray into doing LPs was met with the support it had. Sorry. I’m a sappy bitch. I will go on forever on those kinds of things if you let me. See you next mission!
I have finally gotten off my butt to properly fill in all of the table of contents! I figured I’d give one last goodbye and offer thanks to everyone who enjoyed the thread. I’ll officially close the damn thing within a day or two.
But hey, while you’re here reading this, check out this cool pearler Beedrops made!
Cowabunga, dudes. See you in another life!

At the risk of committing a massive faux pas, I’m here with one last post. First and foremost, I’m here to clean up the TOC and make it much more Archive friendly, so that I can properly submit it! Second, I wanted to celebrate the anniversary of the Game Boy and this project one last time with a special stream. A REAL final word, in the form of a game I had been looking forward to for some time. It’s a bittersweet note, but I hope it brings back some nice memories and maybe even motivates you in your endeavors! Thank you for reading. Thank you for watching.
