hahaha I know right. He is like, oh this is my PC...as you can see there are lots of USB ports on the front of it. Custom build, I don't think Mike is the one that did the custom building though lol I also don't think he knows what a mechanical keyboard is

can it play pornhub @30fps?

Don’t forget the micro SD cards he can put in there!

Mike is a idxk

Yeah that's true. I just prefer playing on the original hardware usually. Though with something like 5 1/4" floppy discs, there isn't much choice since they are almost always dead. Anyway, glad you enjoyed the video. -Mike

I did, man. And I understand. Enjoy your treasure.

I just did that and build myself a RetroPie system wich consists of a Raspberry Pi 3 and a Pitendo case.I now have all NES ,N64 ,Mastersystem , Genesis , some PlayStation games, etc... and it fits all on a 32gb MicroSD card.Just amazing how technology evolved to do this.I know having the consoles and cartridges itself is amazing and authentic but it is very expensive and time consuming to search and buy all of the consoles and games, i just love the form factor of my system as it fits in the palm of my hand and i can play almost every console and game imaginable :D

He would be a HUGE PRICK (pun intended) :D

Less of a pun, more of a double entendre.

+Dafoodmaster legend says its 9 inches

This is so weird. I remember thinking he was annoying and disliking him to some degree as well back in 2010. Now, I like him a lot. What the hell happened?

atidiaX mandela effect.

+BlackPhillip people used to hate his guts around 2012, then he became a meme, and they lived happily ever after :)

mobious01 Bullshit. Try 10.

He's clearly not a PC/Windows guy, and he doesn't know much about this.

It was kinda embarrassing. :/

fuck off

Jamazon why does that matter? obviously his channel is legit without a high end pc

I get it, he's not a big pc guy and that's fine. I just thought it was a bit silly to not mention specs at all. I feel like he could've done a little bit of research ahead of time too

You're welcome! Thanks for watching - Mike

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video! -Mike

One Man Parade the one good commenter

Damn... do they come in that size?

deadguy718 trash bag?

"take your Damn clothes off!"

Pat the NES Punk love your book! Where can i buy it? Keep going man!!

+Pat the NES Punk I think that NES guide book got 5 stars from a certain NES Guide Book author!

+Valerio Occhiuzzi on his website i think.

nice job Pat =)

That book is mighty impressive.

Marco Ak Hey Marco I'm Marco

And you have a very similar avatar. Well, this is disturbing.

LOL same

Are you familiar with My Life in Gaming? They talk about it in nearly every video.

Marco Ak ikr. Where are you from?

Exactly! It doesn't look pretty, but it's super functional! Thanks for watching! -Mike

The suffering is real. We only use 4 consoles and a VHS player, but due to our available space all our cables are between the TV and the wall. It is often a god-damn nightmare.

Evan Riley What are you going to do with it lol ?! 😈😈😈

I dunno man, he's just a really handsome man. Really want some of his man bazooka juice!

yeah ikr he sounds like a true friend that would stick up for you and hell even support you if you have truble, issues in life or to start up somethign big. I respect Mike for what a great friend he is to James and without Mike we may have not get so much content on this channel.

Can you handle all of that? It's so much to fap.

its too fucking big

How did his comment turn out into this @@

FireBomberBassist It's a two hand+mouth type of job but I can do it!

7:50

Great episode

I was thinking the exact same thing when he said from the episode where Picard had been captured and was being tortured and the guy kept asking him how many lights he saw

Don’t forget that 1701 monitor...

CapnPicard the electricity bill must be through the roof

Monopoly lol doesn't give a shit about all of the tech XD

+Johnster Nope! Mind blown thinking I was watching them on the same couch this whole time.

Yeah, I'd noticed the posters switching but I thought he just rearranged them every so often, or that in their excitement/rage at the games they accidentally knocked them down and just put them back up differently.

Boy, I have 4 couches and no one's mind has been blown yet

Ristar the Shooting Star Mind blown x4!

to be honest I am getting a surge protector that has switched for every outlet so I can power only what I'm playing so I don't power what I'm not using

James place has the Nerd room. Wood paneling, futon. My house is the one in this video. Ryan's set up has the wood paneled walls with the old phone and lamp. He also has another area with blue/grey foam backdrop where we film Talk About Games sometimes. Thanks for watching! -Mike

You're so welcome! So, my suspicions were correct. I think I've got everybody's set straight now. Thanks, Mike.

***** Ryan's married, which puts him well past most 'basement dwelling nerds', and if you know women you know she ain't putting up with livin' in no momma's basement.

He probably got Cherry Blue, they're loud

*Can't delete*

downscale Yes, we understand this, hence my post.

Ew to hell with that, I'd rather mostly silent but satisfying to click. Browns at the very least.

FUTURE10S I use browns, best for typing and gaming.

Most of the consoles needs to be moded to output RGB. I noticed it few months ago: they have Framemeister and feed it with composite... I don't know who advised him to buy a Framemeister, but he should tell him that he needs SCART for this... Also: he's clearly a newbie to Windows :P

Recommended watching, My Life in Gaming rgb-series. Actually there are not so many consoles, that need modding. But sure, there are a few. Even an s-video is a huge improvement from composite.

Chuck Grody Yeah, I might have gone too far with "most". Still, they do a lot of NES, and it requires modding.

Agreed, but we also have to remember, that I don't believe Mike is so much technologically minded :) I mean, he just got into the whole PC-thing. Also, "whole USA" woke-up to RGB and scart just a few years ago. But I hope, that Mike checks these things out. Because the aftermath of that, is better quality videos for us all (including himself, when he want's to enjoy the older games with better picture quality)!

True. Time to but scart cables for the retro systems. They are only like $20 each for a quality made cable.

Thanks. My wires are a mess though, I know. But that's because I'm constantly unhooking things and moving stuff around. So there doesn't seem to be a way to do much about it. Anyway, thanks for watching! -Mike

Cinemasaccre Hey mike, when do you start making livestream again...? (I'm your new sub)

I just recommend using zip ties and what not to tie cords together and then label them for certain stuff. it's how i get past my computer cable mess

kingkold I still have my NES collection, along with the complete NES library on my computer. I use my emulator to play games. I don't have a webcam yet, someday I will. Mike has live streaming devices, not Bandicam, but Insee people using Bandicam and mirrored other videos to KZfaq. Keep in mind.

Or just use brown switches., same amazing feel without the loud click.

They're better for typing because you can glide your fingers over the keys easier. Raised keys are better for gaming because they give you a more rigid hold for your fingers. Also, typically flat keyboards don't have Macros.

Brown switches with o rings to keep it from bottoming out...perfect for quiet gaming.

But without the click, where is the fun and rhythm?

Maybe it's too late for your pointless "advice".

lololol

It's one of those things...Metal Jesus probably said it best. People in our age group are getting to a 'stable' point in our professional lives and are picking up games we couldn't have back then. These games were very very expensive back then...and all had different prices in the $60 to $80 range, mostly based off the memory capacity of the cart. Our parents simply couldn't afford it back then. The next generation of family typically is better off than their parents. We want these games..and spending $100 once or twice or three or four times in a month really isn't that expensive. We have the scampers to thank though for these absurdly high prices though. Fuck them assholes. Whether we 'should' be spending $500 to $1000 per month on retro gaming or 'stuff' in general is another topic though and isn't appropriate here.

KWKBOX he can probably write all that stuff off as it is for work

Games are meant to be played for hours too. I read somewhere that it takes the average player 7hrs to beat Super Mario World. You can pick up that game for $15 and play it for three or four days. It will cost me $20 to take my girlfriend to see Doctor Strange tomorrow and we will be entertained for less than 2 hours.

True True

SoldSanke yeah this and Chrono Trigger... best Games ever made. he even has that Kefka lego figure

Oh man, Chrono Trigger, gonna play that one again soon, it never gets old.

Hilarious and original.

To play fun games.

He's not really a peasant if he has a Commodore64 and Apple II...Just saying.

Mac Canma Most of the best games of all time came out exclusively on console. Yes I know there are emulators now, I am talking about original releases.

I was joking...I grew up on the NES and SNES , but today consoles are a JOKE !

mate zool was a quality game you're lucky, the acorns at my primary school only had some shitty point and click adventure game where you get creeped up on by some fucking pedo monster or some shit haha

***** I remember it being really fun. the only other acorn game we had was this strange helicopter game. Looked like an atari game hah.

Anthony Shuker I just got zool the other day on snes

Nvm haha zoop

Zool was amazing on Amiga.

I'm working on that. It's an involved process with so many systems. - Mike

His setup is fine for vocal work, what i saw as alarming was his mixer gain levels all pegged to 10. Im surprised its not distorting. Or picking up am radio!

James is even worse

Too much math.

About 34 times (I actually tried to count and lost track at about 34 so yeah maybe 47 around there actually)

I'd rather watch Final Fantasy VI

you know the drill

Chrono Trigger was leagues better than FFVI

Bridgeman I meant I rather see it that FF3 for the NES.

It's Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. It's a prequel.

Japanese title: Super Mario: Yoshi Island.

Kaiser GX

Now you just butchered it. If you're going to translate it like that you need to change Super and Island as well to romanized text.

Kaiser GX I am sorry.

There... are... FOUR LIGHTS!

People are always telling Mike when he is fighting a boss: There... are... FOUR FORMS! FOUR FORMS!!!!

downscale​​ oh because you need to make KZfaq videos to have knowledge or even a differing opinion. I opened your page to see if there was videos about being a bit of a knob. Love ya buddy 😂

well he is a fucking white male afterall

Technically if its got something to put in something it's a male cable, and if it's the receiving dock it's a female cable. That's actually how it works which is strange.

***** so its rape?

***** but your just a fuckin white male! and your abilest too because your typing!!!! do you think blind people and people without arms can do that?!!! your oppressing them!

Hilarious and original, Mr. Meme Regurgitator.

Yeah but cable management like that is fun XD

PETARDAwNABIAL have fun emulating that one arcade game that no one can port, and have fun playing shantae(gbc version) on an emulator

***** my grammar is perfect and having a better way to play those games doesnt require them to stop collecting old cartridges. They made it their job, its about time they made improvements to their workplace.

Liam Freeman have fun having any1 care about it enough to get it and make a video about it. Stop living in the past. New games r better

You don't get nostalgia, do you?
