Oh crap!  Look at 2:27 when he pulls out his Keith Courage game case.  Look at the game that was right next to it on the shelf... KEITH COURAGE!  What kind of sick, twisted, perverted individual has multiple copies of Keith Courage just in case one of them breaks down due to overplaying?


I have multiple copies of Keith Courage, but no, I don't keep them together on a shelf, just in case.

I took a look at the dvd video of that scene, because the game next to it definately didn't say Keith Courage on the side. After a close look, it appears that the shelf is full of cases with different names on the spine, but all (except one?) of them have a Keith Courage manual.

I snapped a few pics of it-

You forgot my comment about the dudes beating the spider in Legendary Axe.


Once again, you pretty much summed it up.

Also, to this day I freakin' love the voices in Fighting Street.  Funny thing is that they sound just like the arcade.  Instead of "Round One" it's "wound won!"  And every enemy says with the same voice "You've got a lot to learn before you beat me try again kid eh heh heh heh heh heh!"


I have every line and every voice of Fighting Street/Street Fighter memorized to this day.

Some of the best are-

"I never win!" (I'm number one?)

"You a big who!" (something about a fool?)

" Oh gay baby!" (Okay baby?)

I like that the Turbo CD Fighting Street kept the japanese names of Ryu & Ken's special moves. I was surprised when one day, years after mastering the Turbo CD game, I found a Street Fighter arcade with the giant buttons intact, pulled off a hadouken and Ryu yells out "Street Fighter!".

Playing through the arcade did at least confirm that the voices were faithful to the arcade, like with Forgotten Worlds.

By the way, does anyone know what that PCE game is displayed around 8:23 into the video that shows a pair of fists punching a Japanese dude's head is? I've played every PCE ROM at least once before and can remember every other game shown in the video except that one. Looks hilarious, I am assuming it's a mini game of some other game.


Keranu the first couple of times I saw that, I thought that it was a bonus round to the mahjong game, which would be pretty cool.

Like if you were to ask a North American gamer, "what would it take for you to try a mahjong video game?", their answer would probably be something like, "I don't know, maybe if you could beat the crap out of your opponent's face every time they have to king you."

Perhaps he just REALLY likes the Keith Courage comic and wants to read it before he plays any game since it inspires him to be all he can be.

Hahahahaha, so true :D . I'll have to try finding this game, I would love to play that.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

I just noticed that at 2:07 in the video, where they're playing Fighting Street, Mike kicks their(Ryu's) ass. Then it cuts to the dorks high fiving each other shouting "ya!".

And then, at the last second, the "cool" guy does a gay wave (the kind of gesture one would make while saying "oh behave!") at the TV, while mouthing "ow!".

Also, the two clips of the guys 'dancing' are actually different. And in the last one with the "Sensational Sound!" subtitle, the dork is making a gesture that can only be...



anyone sensitive should stop reading now------------------------------








-giving a blow job while tickling the guy's balls. I'm not being sarcastic, check it out 4:47 in the video.

In case this post is one step away from being banned, I won't say what it is clearly obvious the same guy is doing with his other hand.

Hahaha, I love that dance the nerd does in 4:47, though to be honest with you, I believe he is playing air guitar and not tickling a sack of balls :D .

I just put together a new video inspired by and made from the "Get Turbocharged!" tape, called "Turbo Goofs!"

You certainly have a much more active imagination than I do Keranu. If that guy is playing air guitar, he's terrible at it. :P

Hey guys, i have all these videos in one VOB file on my hub. I got them all from Aaron Nanto.......the dude that owns this incredible site.

My brother put them all on DVD for me, and then i ripped it, and rar'ed it.



it is kinds crazy.......the old ass clothes styles, and the stupid ass faces these kids make playing the games. TOTAL cheese. I don't think i ahve ever seen a cool ass home video. All of them must have the casting call for "total dorks apply only" sign in front of the audition room, with some amateur director that thinks he's the next Martin Scorsese, when he couldn't direct traffic if he had instructions.

Nostalgia sake is the only asset to keep you watching these goofy ass video's. Even if i had seen these back in the day i would have thought "Lamers".

I was so happy when Aaron made me these video's. I didn't even ask him to, and he sent me some free stickers, and a refrigerator magnet i believe.


I bought something other than merchandise from his website, and he sweetened the deal.


Aaron is a darn nice fella! :D

I checked out the Turbo Goofs earlier today and got a huge kick out of! The music match up you did with the Lords music fit the scene perfectly, I was laughing my ass off! Great job dude!

Hehe, well actually come to think of it, he could be playing an air bass guitar since he's picking the strings with all of his fingers :D . I can easily see how another person would think he's scratching a sack of marbles though :lol: .

We need to find these dudes and get them to join up here on the forum so we can interview them.  Maybe they can even make a new Turbo video with updated special effects, HDTV video and 6.1 DTS ES surround sound.  We also need to find the li'l dipwad who dances with the Turbo CD player.  I bet that's Keranu, though.  His age seems about right now.   :D
