Game Sack

Well, the 2nd game, "Diddy's Kong Quest" has a similarly suggestive ring to it, when you think about who his sidekick is...

From what I know from old Club Nintendo magazines, Diddy's Kong Quest was originally meant to be named either Diddy Kong's Quest or Diddy's Conquest. They even provided beta screenshots of the title screen.

By the way, Joe and Dave, you're pretty good at making a 40 minute show entertaining for the whole runtime. Who else can do that? I don't know! If I watch a lengthy EEVBlog video, I usually doze off after 20 minutes, just as I do when playing Animal Crossing for more than 1 hour.

Obviously Joe and Dave are practicing for a new updated Obey special. No one cares if they screw up with Nintendo trash.

Another awesome video Joe, this is my favorite topic you guys talk about.  I can't believe someone actually talked about World Driver Championship on N64.  It is the definitive racing game on the console in my opinion.  Dave may have had a hard time with the controls but most fans of sim racers will feel right at home.  The point of the crappy handling characteristics on the early cars is the fact that they are indeed crappier cars.  The cars you earn do start handling better but, they also go faster so your braking points on most tracks are still largely similar.  While it doesn't have near the depth of Gran Turismo 1 or 2, it is still one of my favorites of the day.  Thank you for mentioning it!

Great episode as always. Placing WDC after F-Zero is a bit funny, since it makes the game look daaaaamn slow in comparison. Still, I appreciate the effort in picking out an N64 game for this episode, especially since it is one that might have gone under the radar due to being released late in the console's lifespan.

Awesome episode. When i was a child I really didn't get anything a launch day, but either a few months, later. I think the first console i got on my own at launch was the Wii. Camped out at target for about 10 hours to get it.

The only console i ever bought at launch was the dreamcast.With the modern ones i find it better to just wait a year or so instead.

Even with all of Joe's editing magic and skill, he can't make 5th gen poly's look good nowdays...ouch.

Of all the consoles I got close to launch...I got...a......*drumroll*.....Vita....

Typically I'm a cheapass too so I don't know what came over me at the time. In comparison I waited around 3 years each for 360 and PS3. Got used bundles on both and the consoles didn't end up costing much at all. Still don't have an XBone or PS4.

5th gen graphics have certainly aged worse than just about any generation since gen 2. 

Great gameplay is the only thing that saves games from that era.
