    Double the unboxing double the fun! Great n64 pulls! I'm a big fan of the n64 and Duke Nukem would be my pick bc I love the original pc game and really enjoyed the n64 port as well, they added a couple of new weapons and made it to where you can save the babes that are held captive by the aliens. And there's so many fun racing games on the n64 as well. Hope you're having a great week!

      Thanks dude! My procrastination made this happen. 🤣 VGM hooked it up nicely with all the N64 here but Duke is definitely my favorite pull. I absolutely loved the game on the PC. I haven’t jumped too far into the 64 version but heard they added some new stuff and the intro is a ringer. Cheers buddy! Hope you are doing well and have a great weekend. 🍻🤙🏻

    Double box hype!
    What's your favorite Duke Nukem quote?
    I often appreciate a good compilation game.

    • @DrinkGameswithJosh
      @DrinkGameswithJosh  3 місяці тому +1

      Procrastinating sum bitch that I am. 🤣 I would probably defer to the classics like Come Get Some! Or Hail to the King Baby! But they paid homage to (ripped off) so many films with the quotes it isn’t funny. Compilations are usually well worth the price…especially because most folks don’t go for them. More bang for the buck. 🍻

    Very cool games for the collection. I remember the AVGN video on the Last Ninja. That iso view really takes a bit to get used to. I have to play games with inverted controls. Since I started playing Halo , that configuration just stuck with me. 😅 Just uploaded my May video with the same arrangement. I was happy with my pulls as well.😊🎉 Hope you have a wonderful week friend.🍻

    • @DrinkGameswithJosh
      @DrinkGameswithJosh  3 місяці тому +1

      I liked the pulls from both boxes. Last Ninja is a bit odd compared to almost anything else on the NES but I bet the folks with nostalgia for the game loved it. I just cannot do the inverts. It kills me….literally. 🤣 I will get over soon to check your unboxing out dude! Hope they hooked you up well with the arrangement. 🤙🏻

    • @DrinkGameswithJosh
      @DrinkGameswithJosh  3 місяці тому +1

      I had never played The Last Ninja before. Didn’t have a micro as a kid but it seems like an interesting game. Very different from anything else on the NES. They hooked me up nicely with the N64 grabs. Duke is of course my favorite of the bunch but all of them are solid! There are actually 2 Battletanx games on the system. Same of the more but fun as hell just to blow things up. 🤣

  • @pappabeargaming
    @pappabeargaming 3 місяці тому +1

    This seems like a better deal to get the round about value of the box rather then a specific number of games. Very nice, first box, both games are bangers, I wouldn’t mind either of them. Third box, all n64! Not bad at all.

    • @DrinkGameswithJosh
      @DrinkGameswithJosh  3 місяці тому +1

      It’s working out pretty well so far really. I guess they were having problems getting me 5 games I didn’t have for the limited systems selected. The first box was definitely my favorite of the two getting a wishlist game and the NES has been much harder to come by lately but the 2nd was a nice hook up too. Getting closer and closer. 🍻🤙🏻

    @davidb69 3 місяці тому +1

    First person shooters of that time period of the n64 were definitely painful , the decision on controls was definitely the biggest issue back then. I think I did most of first person shooters on pc due to controls cause controllers were not able to mimic everything you could do on pc. I’ve got both battletank games and love them both. Still awesome to get Duke nukem though. Great unboxings 🍻

    • @DrinkGameswithJosh
      @DrinkGameswithJosh  3 місяці тому +1

      Back then PC was definitely far more simple for the designers of FPS but they really did make some that worked quite well. Goldeneye and the first two Quake games come to mind right away. They hooked me up nicely with N64. I still have a handful of under $20 titles I need for the system so they still have some room to send along more value titles. 🤞🏻 For more NES too though. 🍻

    The Last Ninja looks to be the winner here. The graphics look good for NES. I love the big sprites. I wonder if the camera angle will make gameplay frustrating.

    • @DrinkGameswithJosh
      @DrinkGameswithJosh  3 місяці тому

      Well…I was certainly happy to add Last Ninja to the set but it’s an odd game to play on the NES. Gotta get a hang on the controls and figure out what you need to do. I am sure it worked better back on the micro computers when it was new. Worth checking out if you find it for a good price but check it out on emulation first before you pony up. 🤙🏻

    • @DrinkGameswithJosh
      @DrinkGameswithJosh  3 місяці тому

      Dang dude! Hope you got your May hookup by now. You probably have too many systems selected if you haven’t gotten any 64 yet. Best value all around is in non handheld cartridge systems. But everyone is looking for different things, so…They have been a solid service for me over the years though. I was doing SNES along with NES and N64 and they seemed to mix it up nicely. 🍻🤙🏻

    Duke on the n64 looked great, true about the controls haha The last ninja looks like an interesting game, heard of the title but didnt play it myself, agree on that its different in terms of how it looks
    Miday arcade classic is great cant go wrong with those
    Top gear rally 2 is a soild game as well 😊😊
    Great picks ups 😊😊

      Thanks dude! Totally happy with the selections from these two boxes. My favorite is easily Duke Nukem just from the Nostalgia but Tope Gear Rally is a solid series of racers and this entry is good too. A lot of people don’t seem to enjoy the. Compilations but to be true I think they are the best bang for the buck. Tons of great games on this one too. 🍻🤙🏻

  • @RetroRivals

    If I had to compare the two boxes, I think April was the better of the two because you got a game on your wish list which is awesome.
    I wish I had more love for the N64. We have such a teeny tiny collection, but I'm thinking about playing one of my games this year to determine whether we keep the system and the games or not.

    • @DrinkGameswithJosh
      @DrinkGameswithJosh  3 місяці тому +1

      I agree about the two boxes for sure. The N64 for me is pure nostalgia. It was the first system I bought with my own money as an adult. That is what drives me to go for the set. If I had to suggest a single game as must play on the system it would be Zelda Ocarina of Time. It’s a great couch co-op machine too. A fun time with friends would still be MarioKart 64. WWF No Mercy and Goldeneye were always favorites for me too but with the 64 time hasn’t been on it’s side for a lot of games. 🤷‍♂️

  • @TheGameroomAwakens
    @TheGameroomAwakens 3 місяці тому +1

    Some sweet N64 titles! Yeah the controls on FPS N64 games is ROUGH! The Brawler 64 controller helps some but not all. Depends on whether you can remap the controls enough to make a difference. I hate inverted too except in flight games.
    😁👍

    • @DrinkGameswithJosh
      @DrinkGameswithJosh  3 місяці тому

      On Flight Sim games the inverted controls make sense. They make no sense for anything else. 🤷‍♂️ I think the smart play for the old school developers on FPS games was to make the schemes customizable. The games that are not are barely playable for me. I do have a Brawler and it’s a Great wireless controller option to play on the system! Hope you are having a great weekend my friend! 🍻🤙🏻
