Let’s Play Kung Fu

NES /

Let’s Play Kung Fu! Kung Fu is about as straight forward an action game that you’ll find on the NES. Ported from the arcade game of the same name, you play as Ryu on a familiar quest (though relatively fresh at the time) to rescue his girlfriend. Kidnapped by the presumably evil Mr. X, you […]

Let’s Play Maniac Mansion

NES /

Let’s Play Maniac Mansion! Maniac Mansion is responsible for something like a quarter of my entire channel’s traffic and probably subscribers with it. For whatever reason that video blew up and I still every few days get someone messaging me telling me that they subscribed because of this let’s play. This game was legitimately scary

Let’s Play Contra

NES /

Let’s Play Contra! On a system which had a lot of great 2 player games, Contra is the quintessential NES co-op game. It’s really too bad that it’s rare to find a good in person couch co-op game anymore, because it’s my favorite “genre” if you will. Outside of doing let’s plays which admittedly I

Let’s Play Bionic Commando

NES /

Let’s Play Bionic Commando! Okay maybe I should just call it now and say Capcom far and away made the best games for NES back in the day. Outside of Nintendo themselves, it’s probably true. They’re probably my favorite overall, or you’d think so from this early channel game selection. Bionic Commando had one of

NES /

Let’s Play Mega Man 2! I was on a Capcom stretch here at the beginning of the channel. Considering I started with a number of my favorites, that’s a testament to Capcom’s talents at the time. If I’ve said it once I’ll say it a thousand times, Capcom games always have fantastic music. Mega Man

Let’s Play Rescue Rangers

NES /

Let’s Play Rescue Rangers! What did I just say about Capcom making magic out of Disney franchises? This is yet another brilliant combination of gameplay mixed with a fantastic soundtrack meets colorful fun graphics. The fact that it’s two player makes it one of the beste couch co-op experiences on the NES for my money.

Let’s Play Little Nemo

NES /

Let’s Play Little Nemo! Little Nemo is easily one of my favorite games ever released for the NES. Based on the Disney film of the same name, you play as a kid who just can’t won’t stay in bed, despite the protestations of his mother. Capcom had a long string of successes in the early

NES, Racing /

Let’s Play Rad Racer! This was my third let’s play on the channel (okay, I’ll stop counting after this one) and has the distinction of being the only LP I’ve ever put up without narration I’m pretty sure, save for maybe a couple of videos with copyright notices where they just killed the sound altogether.
