Hey John, yeah anything coming from NES, Gameboy, Sega Master System, or Atari are coming from a Dreamcast CD of some sort. For the Gameboy, I think it is "GNUBOY" or something like that. They are old emulators, I think I put those CD's together back in 2002.
And I watched the episode last night, it was fantastic stuff! I was entertained. Matt and Bree, the Harvey Birdman stuff was great in spite of the fact that I had never seen the show before. I really enjoyed John's look at the action figures, I'm a fan of the Peanuts and those figures were cool (I almost bought them myself when they were around, I should've).
There's so much more I wanted to write about that came to me while I was watching the episode. Oh yeah, He-man on Youtube?? I'll definitely have to check that out.
I've been playing Punch Out as well and I'm really enjoying it. The game is definitely more of a tribute to the series than anything. Kudos to Nintendo for not trying to be all PC and stuff, all the stereotypes remain and it can be pretty funny at times. I love how Bear Hugger chugs jars of syrup.
John, you used to live in Maryland? Whereabouts? I am from Carroll County. You know Westminster? I think I saw something about the Ghost Hunters coming to York, PA in October (I'll have to double check). If so, you and Stephanie should come on down and we'll go meet them all together, maybe film it, haha. _________________ Now you can become a fan of The Retro Machine on Facebook.

Yes, I am very familiar with Carroll County and Westminster. I used to live in Finksburg, no more than 30 seconds away from a place called "The Whistlestop". Dunno if that's still there anymore.
I'll mention the Ghost Hunters to Steph. If we're able to, we'll come. _________________ John R. Gibson

Well good grief John, Finksburg/Gamber/Westminster area used to be my frequent stomping grounds, I grew up there and lived there from 78-96. Still visit every few months. I played baseball at Finksburg, my church was in Gamber, and used to go to the Gamber Carnival every year (mainly for the funnel cake and people watching). I went last year actually to that carnival again, it was like it had never changed.
Westminster is booming right now in terms of retail and restaurants. It's not like when I was a kid and all we had was "Toys Top" and Cranberry Mall. What a small world. _________________ Now you can become a fan of The Retro Machine on Facebook.

Favorite place to eat: Cactus Willie's. Good food.
Also went to a flea market in Westminster, picked up a Super NES and Super Mario World for 10 bucks, the Rambo cartoon for 50 cents, and plenty of little trinkets, and old toys.
You cannot find this stuff in New York, not this good. _________________ John R. Gibson

Whoah, I haven't been around here in a while.
Finally watched the episode. Good work, everyone - another quality episode.
Outtrigger looks good enough. I don't have many Dreamcast games so that might be one to look out for. I like the visual style - it's a lot more colourful than most modern FPSs.
Glad you mentioned 'There Will Be Brawl'. It's a good series with a lot of injokes and decent production values (for a free web series anyway).
