this is written by tony and I just have to say, eddy's singing was great in the intro! this is definitely tony btw - tony

I remember as a kid, whenever someone new came to the house, the first course of action was to make them a Mii. Even if we didn't play anything, it was just important to us to keep a living guestbook of Miis.

I miss 2008. The nuclear family consisted of two parents, two kids, and one copy of Wii Sports.

i love how we all universally have a “freak mii”

guys you don’t have to call me mr. perfect game, eddy will do just fine!!!

holy shit, i don't know if it was the build up to it or something else but I did not expect THAT MUCH nostalgia from the wii sports title screen music. god damn

That matt section actually made me cry. The sheer depth matts knowing eyes… he KNOWS that you two will Face off one day but he’s proud to go down by your hands

Anxiously awaiting the part 2 on Sports Resort. That game is beloved in my heart. Fruit archery, nose diving the volcano, the absolute unhinged fervor my cousin & I would work ourselves into in the bike races. Best game of all time I miss it so much

Weird to think there's a generation of kids now who never played Wii sports

The Wii is so nostalgic for me. When I was a kid I saved up for MONTHS trying to buy a Wii for myself and then that year when Christmas came my grandpa surprised me with one for Christmas so then I had all that money I had saved up to buy games and extra controllers for my new Wii. Definitely one of the best Christmases ever.

Many senior and nursing homes have wii bowling events to this day. I still remember going to a team building thing at work 10+ years ago - instead of a ropes course we did wii bowling.

The fact that I remember the exact meal my mom brought home the night she brought it home as a surprise…this shit absolutely rocked my world

why did “matt forgive me” actually break my heart oh my god 😭😭

When you realize that Wii Sports has a boss fight with a developed character that has an arc that includes the player's hero's journey.

the mentor to opponent Matt arch really brought a tear to my eyes, very emotional and moving

Let's be honest, if the Wii Sports theme music doesn't play as the credits for the end of the world, it's not gonna be a perfect ending. I want it played at my funeral. Because no matter how hard life gets, this song will always be happy af

I'd say this is the best one yet! The homage to Matt was pure gold.

Shoutout Tony, his presenting has already improved and the content just keeps getting better and better with ever video! Eddy you’re cool too I GUESS 🙄

Matt being the last boss is like the climatic betrayal in anime where the main character has to face off in a final battle against his mentor that's been training him the entire series

My wii console broke a few months into quarantine and I can safely say it was the saddest thing to happen in 2020. Haven't played a single wii game since. My life is worse now Update July 2022: MY BIRTHDAY WAS THIS MONTH AND I ASKED FOR A WII CONSOLE AND GOT IT A FEW DAYS AGO! Been having so much fun playing all our old games, including wii sports and sports resort ofc. It's a bit sad to not have all my friends and family's miis, or impressive records we set saved, but I'm stil glad to have it! I even had a friend come over yesterday just to play wii with me like we were kids again. My life is better now. If any of you want to come play some wii with me just let me know! My mom will drop you off if your mom picks you up

As a kid I never had a Wii of my own. So whenever I was at a friend's place, I got my ass handed to me in every single game of Wii sports, but I never felt like I wasn't having fun. That's the beauty of this game for me, the fun comes from being with mates, regardless of winning or losing. - Great video as always

The boys are back in town for another nostalgia trip. Wii sports is still one of the best group party games

The best part of baseball is when you pause the game the remote yells "time out!"

There used to be a man I knew from an assisted living home who played Wii bowling every day with a group and he was crazy good. He bowled a perfect game one day and posted a screenshot of his score on the wall. He was getting perfect games so consistently that he wrote the date of the games next to his perfect game post. Unfortunately he passed away but damn what great memories trying to beat him (I never did)

Definitely one of the best games ever made. Amazing how nostalgic the music is for so many people

Ol’ Tony Pro and Eddy 9 Pins back at it again with another banger of a video

Tony and Eddy sound so similar- at first I kept thinking, "Wow, Eddy must have a pretty bad cold... In only half the commentary...."

4:30 this moment was so funny "You know I hate it when you pretend to agree with me..." lol!!

I had no idea Eddy was such a talented singer! I will remember his performance for the rest of my life, 10/10

i was literally crying after the matt training compilation

the miis were a critical part of my childhood. i remember coming home one day from elementary school and making my crush a mii just so i would be prepared if they ever came over.

Something I feel very few people talk about is the CPU Miis’ personalities. They each seem like their own little person and I love it so much!

I remember my sisters and I saving up all of our money and our parents finally taking us to buy a Wii its been 12 years and we still use it, its such a great console 😭

I remember doing wii bowling competitions at my school during field. There was nothing more humiliating than talking a big game and then getting a 7 10 split on your first throw

Tony and Eddy Ninepins really knocked it outta the park with this one

Why does this seem like a school project that Tony and Eddy worked on in High School. And now they’re finally releasing it all these years later.

Wow Eddy bowled a perfect game, that's pretty cool

Wii Fencing is single handled my the most rage inducing thing I’ve ever experienced

Gamers: I fear no man, but that thing... Matt: Hello there Gamers: *It scares me* I know everyone talks about the Wii Sports title screen theme, but the whole soundtrack is a banger. The moment you hear a song from that soundtrack, you immediately know where it's from. The fact the Wii Sports soundtrack in general can be used to describe a generation says A LOT. The Wii may not be perfect, but boy did it change gaming

I have a really deep and fond memory of wii sports resort, my little sister was level 2000 in the sword fighting, she was obsessed with it and I’ll always look back at that memory fondly

I have never been more jealous of someone then when my dad bowled a perfect game in Wii Sports Bowling.

12:17 As someone who recently spent a decent time getting to 2000 rating in baseball (and genuinely considers that an achievement), I think it is the best of the sports because of its difficulty. The need for restraint when batting (to draw walks and avoid groundouts) and for strategy when pitching (which mii hits which types of balls, when to risk a splitter) means it's still a challenge. I guess we have flipped opinions between baseball and boxing because I never found that fun.

Man, this made me remember the jealousy I felt towards my dad when he reached pro in bowling AND box. Good times

Man, Eddy really hit them notes. I think he just needs one more tragic detail in his backstory and he can get on American Idol

Wii Sports is such a masterpiece. One of my favorite games from my childhood!

u guys have such a great dynamic. i love this channel bc i found it thru eddy but i imagine if i didn't know you guys and i came across this, i'd still find it super unique and be drawn in. you guys have not missed yet. keep it up!

ABSOLUTELY yes to the idea of covering wii resort in the future!! As someone who got a wii slightly later than many people I knew, Wii Sports Resort was much more formative in my experience of the console than the original, and it went....crazy hard. I literally remember enjoying pretty much every sport on the game, with a special praise for Basketball, Swordplay and Island Flyover. It was challenging, the core mechanics were soo solid and I found that it offered much more variety than Wii Sports. I spent the entire Christmas period of 2009/10 just totally immersed in that game; it's genuinely one of my happiest video game memories.

That skit with Matt had me in tears 😂

Eddy and Tony I love to see that you're flourishing with this content. Please don't stop!

Wii Sports is legit one of my favorite games of all time. The gameplay is simple and tons of fun, the music slaps hard, and it just has so much personality. You guys totally nailed it with this vid, the jokes were hilarious and you captured the magic of Wii Sports. Also I'm glad I'm not the only one who found baseball annoying at higher levels. I think this might be your best video yet, great job!

tony opening up the wii menu after eddy opened up wii sports was so fecking accurate this is the best synergy i have ever seen

Please dear god do a wii sports resort video i would love to see that especially after how good you guys did this video!!!

This rocks, you have a great chemistry and your delivery is spot on, also really great in tandem with the editing

Eddy Burback would be nothing without his perfect Wii bowling score

These deep dives into video games from my childhood has become one of my favorite things to watch; it feels like getting to sit down with my own brother to talk about the things we took very, very seriously as kids. Love this so much.

Now we need a Wii Sports resort video. It’s probably my favorite game on the Wii.

This had great heart, but I feel the central thesis that "the Wii would be nothing without Wii Sports" went insufficiently substantiated. B-. See me after class.

Wii Sports has been an odd benchmark for aesthetics for me, like I've made a list on Letterboxd called Evil Wii Sports where the locations of the films are really nice and placid and peaceful but the plot is chaotic or terrifying i.e. Midsommar, and I'll watch something or listen to something, or see something and my mind will immediately go "I'm getting strong Wii Sports vibes from this"

this has been my favorite video of yours to watch so far :)) i loved the style and the banter between you two, made it super entertaining. keep up the awesome content :)

You guys work so well together, the dynamic is entertaining, fun, and flows so well

had no idea switch sports was dropping and now I'm super excited, wii sports and wii sports resort were mine and my friends favorite games to play when we were kids.

That part with Matt had me crying with laughter. Also sadness. Very sad.

Definitely the best Burbank video so far, the boxing montage with Matt had me crying 😂

Honestly, this is definitely one of the better burback videos. Really well written

This video was so good, and I'm really excited for the wii sports resort video! I played that way more than the regular wii sports (bc my sister scratched the disk, the loser that she is), and I can't imagine how many hours I spent on just the island flyover game itself. Nothing more challenging than trying to fly into the volcano without wrecking the plane.

Every couple of months I reliably come back to playing Wii sports with my friends

I can’t ever think of bowling in any context without thinking of “Who do you think you are I am?!” And I was so glad Eddy added it 😂😂

Just found this channel and I love both of you making more vague video essays like this. It’s perfect.

This was great Tony, thank you for the cow pictures at the end, I appreciate them, they were very cute.

2 seconds in & i already agree with everything that was said in the entire video

Loving the dynamic even more this video, another great one you guys!!

I really enjoy the concept of a KZfaq channel run by two people that participate in each video. It's unique and I subscribed!

Thank you, boys, for documenting such a major part of history

The boys are back!!!!

Nothing killed my self esteem more then when you took a photo and it created a mii for you. Made me wanna douse myself in gasoline and light a match

I can't tell you how much I enjoy your videos. Keep up the awesome work guys, I'm always entertained by you two.

I actually cried laughing at Eddy's Wii Sports lyrics

I remember waiting in line with a group of friends at a Walmart for about 6 hours to get a Wii on release. We were the last three in line. We watched the South Park episode of Cartman getting a Wii on someone's laptop while in line.

You guys are freakin killing it on this channel. I love all the retro video game stuff.

These get better every time they're posted. Love it.

i never knew my whole life you could angle the shots in tennis until watching this , thank you

I loved that bowling mini game, especially once I found out you can knock down all 91 pins at the end by perfectly rolling your ball down the right bumper, if you make it all the way down it presses a button and all the pins fall.

I love this channel so much man you guys are really funny!

Awesome video! You guys always do a fantastic job with these!

I still play this game with my friends and family. And it's easy to emulate and play with my online friends.

About threw up with how hard I was laughing to Eddy singing along with the Wii theme. Great video boys.

Great video man! When my family got our Wii in the late 2000’s we loved Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resorts. The Wii was truly the perfect system for families and Wii Sports being packed in with it was one of Nintendo’s best decisions.

12:11 my favorite editing gag. I was expecting a rimshot but it transitioned perfectly to the baseball song 👏👏

I didn't even realize how crazy Wii-mania was until years later. My mom had got us one and said it took her dozens of trips to GameStops to even find one in stock so I looked into it.

Amazing video guys. I love your banter. It's such a fun time watching your video. Reminds me of spending time with my sibling.

Eddy "i wouldn't mind the grind if i could catch the balls" Burback

My parents still have the one from my tween years and play it with my kids. Wii sports is always a blast.

I remember getting the Red Wii in 2010. I played that shit all day. And Wii sports was a gigantic reason for that. Bowling was insane. I would've bought that shit by itself. Then a few years later it disappeared . My family has a theory that my brother sold it for weed money. But that's just an absolutely baseless rumor my mom and I started. Good times.

I don't know why the "its just a fun little hop" bit go me so much but I cant stop grinning. This channel never fails to make me smile and laugh 😄

The yikes tapestry behind his bowling mental breakdown was jusy too perfect 😅😂

the script and editing were perfect 👌🏻 i laughed so much and felt so much nostalgia!

Very based video title by the Burback Bois, Wii Sports as well as Wii Fit Plus is how I was able to convince my parents to buy our households very first game console. While I did spend a lot of time with those two over the years if you were to count total hours played I probably spent the most time with Donkey Kong: Country Returns 😁

my dad and I have had a wii bowling rivalry since we got a wii when i was a kid. We still play from time to time to this day and it just doesn't get old

This is my favorite KZfaq channel of all time and I'm a KZfaq addict lmao I like it how y'all go back and forth I wish y'all did more videos

As almost everyone else did while we were growing up, the wii was my life and if Nintendo switch sports is a true recreation then I feel like I might have no choice but to get one.
