In the original ToeJam & Earl, to check for a ship piece on a level, open the map and press the A button to see your ship piece inventory. There will be a message letting you know if a ship piece is on the level.
So theres no what to know if the elevator is evil or not? Kind of a bummer seemingly.
*10:50* Jim tells the story of how he got zapped by the Mad Doc and it messed up his controls (actually, that's the *Cupid* throwing arrows who does that, the Doctor zaps your health), so he couldn't control his character right, *but in reality,* it was Michael who used the "Swap Bodies" present just as the Mad Doc was about to get Jim (but didn't!) - and at that moment it was *Michael* controlling Jim's swapped character, which confused Jimmy in the process, meanwhile his swapped character drowned in the water (bottom screen) because Jim thought he was still controlling the Top screen, and when his button input didn't respond with the actions on-screen (because it was Michael who'd already been steering ToeJam after the "Swap"), he thought the Mad Doc *got* him, resulting in messing up his directional controls... *LOL Cool Story LMAO!*

@@thestwinner680 awesome story, and you messing up the names makes it even 'awesomener'
Thanks, so no alerts that you get at the beginning of the level like the original as well? What about random world mode? Thanks
My friend and I played the originals a lot in college. Nostalgic.
Lost Vikings on SNES. Make it happen, it's right up your alley. Coop puzzle platformer.
Yes! I love that game.
Coop can be difficult if both players are switching characters back and forth unless one player sticks to a certain character
*The Lost Vikings* & *The Lost Vikings II* are BOTH *brilliant,* fun, amazing, funny, and very charming games! Some of the *BEST* from that era and genre.
I translated that game into Brazilian Portuguese! I helped! :) I've been waiting for the game to be released, now to get it!
Um...qu E pasa?
Two of my most favorite games on the Sega Megadrive: ToeJam & Earl and ToeJam & Earl 2: Panic On Funkotron :)
*Most* favorite?... :P
@@thestwinner680 Yeah...and?!
That story about the dude sitting on a hood ornament totally needs to be turned into a Cinemassacre Animated episode! Also the intro to this video looked awesome.
Totally it'd be funny
"Oh and don't forget, there's evil elevators" "oh ok" lol
Hell yeah TJ&E, I freaking love the old 80's DX7 synthesizer sounds in the opening.
FINALLY, an ACTUAL long playthrough of a GOOD game. James and Mike Mondays are back in the groove.
22:08 Dunno if James or Mike read comments, but those hood ornaments are made to pivot and rotate. So maybe when the guy sat on it, he knew it would bend out of the way. They bend and pivot to prevent pedestrians from getting impaled in a car accident.
I appreciate how you guys do ads. They seem pretty genuine.
ToeJam and Earl: Back in the Groove was delayed five times, but I can definitely say it was well worth the wait, as it feels like a true sequel to the original game on the Genesis. Heck, my profile icon for the month of March 2019 was ToeJam and Earl from the cover art of the original 1991 game.
The randomizer presents actually do have practical uses, when you stop to consider them. We know there are both positive and negative presents, and eventually you will run into a situation where you have an overabundance of negative ones, simply due to the fact that you need positive ones to proceed in the game. This is when you want to use your randomizer to reset all the bad presents with the randomizer and get a chance to make them into positive ones instead. It also doesn't randomize anything except what you're carrying, so by dropping positive presents, you're essentially just rerolling negative ones.
You would've beat it if you weren't walking passed the Wiseman (carrot guy) all the time in the earlier levels. When your xp meter is full he levels you up and boosts your stats like increasing your health bar, walking speed, ect..
I played the original with my dad as a kid, watched him beat it once. Seeing a new version of the classic warms my heart.
At 18:49 Lol you guys harmonized there for a few seconds! 🤣🎵🎵
I think James and Mike should play Earth Defense Force, it has 2 player split screen, and you fight giant monsters, aliens, and insects, it's right up their ally.
You guys should play ToeJam & Earl Panic on Funkotron. Quite a different game.
Boogie man: "Boogie boogie booogie"
Me: **shits a breadcrumb trail across the level**
5:53 New character idea to play with:
“Jamin’ Jim” plays music games like guitar hero/rockband and other games with music involved. Wears sunglasses indoors.
"WWWWHHHHHHOOOOOAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH"
-James startled by monster phone booth
Little tip, when you get the rocket shoes, just go around in circles until they run out
The worst on the original game was if the elevator was on its own island and you had no power-ups left anywhere to make a big jump. You basically lost because the game just locked you out from progress.
0:01 I like the intro
This has gotta be the perfect game for these two to check out.
That intro (Kreygasm)
So happy with this game. The fresh beats. The backer names at the end are a super nice touch.
It's a great game! The original was top notch too. Great to watch you guys play it.
Hey was hopeing i could catch mike live sometime is he on twotch or only stream live on youtube thanks.
LOVE The Intro😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️
Growing up in the 90s was the jam.
I can't wait for the physical release of this game on Switch and PS4 from limited run games.
Good timing for uploading this, I was just playing the original on genesis today, definitely one of the best genesis games ever made
Yes, like you mentioned in the video, seeing the level below you during gameplay is a very nice effect. Also the drifting clouds in space. Unfortunately only the PC version has those effects. All the console versions for some unknown reason, do not. I originally bought this game for my Switch, but once I saw how cool the Steam version looked, I had to get it. PC is definitely the definitive version.
Maybe because of the split screen on consoles they had to take some of the effects out?
I’ve got a physical copy from Limited Run Games coming my way eventually. TJ&E was my favorite Genesis game.
Loved watching this. Looks like you guys had a great time. This is a reboot done right.
From the start of this Jim & Michael Mondays I was hearing you both say "shit pieces" before it was even brought up heheh
Great game, I done kickstarteded it I did
You guys should play Toejam & Earl 3 on XBOX after this one!
Apparently you can get it on Dreamcast too, but it's extremely rare.
No, that one sucks
Iceferno Pro never officially released I believed but it’s out there to download. Of course u could pay someone to burn it for u and print box art lol.
Ramjet164 I believe it was found on a demo disc, then someone ripped the file from the GD and released it on internet.
Nikolai Antonov interesting. Cheers for the info.
Mike please beat Adventure Island for NES
Yes, please!!!
I’m sure I’ll get to it at some point on twitch
Cinemassacre ..Mike do you have IG?
Jim should be James' evil alter ego.
Evil Jim
16:43
NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!!
Great to see Toe Jam & Earl back, it was totally overlooked or unpopular here when it was released, glad it had a following in the US to make this release possible, didnt even know about the sequels
When Mike got those rocket shoes I couldn't stop laughing!!!
You guys seen me in Philly.
Nice to see, that you play co-op game. Looks funny game.
Play more co-op games!
My mum loved the original ones, used to try and kick me off the mega drive (genesis) all the time when I was a kid.
Smashed like because of the title card, not gonna lie.
I LOVE this series! Hope you guys play the other two one day
15:03 snap cuts to Jean Luc climbing up the mountain with those kids, but still Jame's daughters song xD perfect actually
This game was so good. Waited 20 years for it and it's just what I wanted. Beat it in one sitting. More people need to play it and it's great for young kids.
True, i really hope they do the second game.. Loved Panic on Funkotron
Jim Rolfe and Michael Matei
Nerd episode: Super Mario Bros 2 FDS & NES. Make it a 2-parter for enough time to talk about both
I love Mike's enthusiasm for that ad.
I saw this the day it came out and was on the fence about getting it. Thanks for this video. It helped me make my decision.
I think there is a search button, and it highlights the trees so you don't have to to go each one and shake them.
18:48 Epic perfect fifth xD
will never think of car ornaments the same again.... thanks
Jaguar hood ornament would probably have the smoothest entry. Mercedes would stretch yo shit out son
I got Raid a few days prior to this review and I like it so far! Good game)
WHAT AN INTRO!!
I got that "Plan 9" reference right away. Way to go, Mike.
I forgot to get in on the backing for this game, but I was still able to snag the vinyl soundtrack on discogs. Hot tracks, yo.
Jim, James, Jimothy
*10:50* Jim tells the story of how he got zapped by the Mad Doc and it messed up his controls (actually, that's the *Cupid* throwing arrows who does that, the Doctor zaps your health), so he couldn't control his character right, *but in reality,* it was Michael who used the "Swap Bodies" present just as the Mad Doc was about to get Jim (but didn't!) - and at that moment it was *Michael* controlling Jim's swapped character, which confused Jimmy in the process, meanwhile his swapped character drowned in the water (bottom screen) because Jim thought he was still controlling the Top screen, and when his button input didn't respond with the actions on-screen (because it was Michael who'd already been steering ToeJam after the "Swap"), he thought the Mad Doc *got* him, resulting in messing up his directional controls...
*LOL Cool Story LMAO!*
Lol that intro and menu backdrop is so saved by the bell late 80s
You should play the second one I just picked it up its pretty fun
A Jaguar would probably feel pretty good, i can't think of any other designs
12:13 elevator dentata...
James n Mike are grooving again!
For a minute there I thought you said "Shit" Piece!!!!
For me - make that almost the entire video (´∀`)
ToeJam & Earl is the epitome of 90s rad culture for kids and teens.
This new ToeJam and Earl looks pretty good. Looks like you two had fun playing it.
18:50 James and Mike's Barbershop Duo!
That intro is fuckin awesome
edit: funkin' awesome
Stupidest comment ever read..
When's the new barod James session
Damn that was a cool intro
thank you guys for still making great content!
Toe Jim and Earl! LOL
Man, never seen u guys so bloody keen!
What was the intro music, I can't find the specific audio
Honestly wouldn't mind seeing you two doing a full playthrough of this. Stream, maybe?
Scan lines on the intro, nice touch.
This is just what I was waiting for
Another fun game is just listening to this video if you don't know anything about ToeJam & Earl! 🤣
imagine Castlevania game done in this style
Rocket shoes are awesome in the right situation.
Finally something fun again
16:03 ...think James came his pants
15:35 OOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
I bought a PS1 Classic last night from Target.. I ordered a USB drive with 112 preloaded PS1 games..
I havent been this excited over videogames in 15 years...
I got a hacked SNES and now PS1 Classic with all the classics..
Symphony of the Night
I get to beat it again...
Legend of Dragoon
Diablo
the philly car ornement reference is the RANDOMNEST thing ever said in all the video made so far!
Where was Mac Culkin for this one? he loves Toe Jam and Earl
He was the game’s executive producer actually
@@mrpizza_5139 Really?!? That's freakin' awesome, I didn't know what James was referencing when he mentioned "our friend Mac had a part in this" at the beginning. I just assumed Mac suggested playing Toe Jam and Earl. That was cool to learn, thanks Ryan :)
Title card gfx more impressive than the games gfx
Yaaas! Great to see ToeJam and Earl back in the groooooove 😎👍
God damn I love the ToeJam and Earl soundtrack.
nice custom intro, man i love this new game, alot, so glad i kickstarted it
"Baddest Points"
I do enjoy the CG openings.
Great Retro intro.
Back in the groove, yeah baby!!!
