oh, cool idea! My favorite part of the video was right before the third or fourth battle. Dan made it seem like he was going to select someone else but ended up choosing Big Zam, which was funny because he had me fooled into thinking he was going to choose someone else. The effect wore off after that battle though, so I was hoping he would eventually choose someone else. At least we got to see the Ball vs. Ball battle at the end haha.
Another funny thing was how OP Big Zam was because Dan had no idea what he was doing and yet he was one win away from winning five matches haha |

For today's episode, we're going to go all the way back to the Jon Era with Nickelodeon Guts: The Trial of the Century - Part 1! Also just as an added bonus, what do you think of Danny's new NSP song, Why I Cry? |
Oh man, love the Guts one. It's even more funny that the discussion in the episode is actually pretty polarizing among fans, too.

Nickelodeon Guts was the first video where I actually felt bad for Arin. Did Jon think that was like a "secret technique" or something? Either way, I imagine if Arin button mashed for long enough he would figure it out, unless it was some combination of buttons for a certain amount of time or something crazy like that. Pretty funny one-off, though.

So I just ordered the new "Hey I'm Grump" T Shirt, and I really want a classic Jon "I'm not so grump" T Shirt. Does anyone know where I can get one? (or perhaps have one they don't want and would be willing to sell?)
Also, discussion topic! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hu-e3k2Fh6s In this episode, do you agree with Jon or Arin? I personally believe Billy Bob Thornton was being incredibly immature and that the interviewer was handling it very well for being faced with such a ridiculous amount of disrespect, so for once, I'm definitely on Jon's side. |
@Nickelodeon Guts
On the topic of whether or not Jon was wrong for withholding information on how to play the game, I think it was fine to not tell Arin how the controls worked. They were playing against each other, after all, and they both had the same lack of knowledge and experience of the game. I thought the whole thing was really funny, though. Spoiler:
@Why I Cry I'm not too fond of NSP's type of humor, but I thought this video was funnier than most of the other videos I have watched. He even cries when he uses a sextant; that was my favorite part haha. |

And, in regards to the discussion, I actually agree with Jon. Though I know he didn't mean that it would give Arin an advantage, I think that, because both of them played the game for the exact same amount of time, they started off on a level playing field. So, from there, what they learned was merely due to their exploration of the controls (which, from Arin's Megaman Sequalitis, you would think would give him an edge...Game Grumps tells a different story). As such, I don't really see him as in the wrong. He just learned how to play the game by playing the game. And one thing I noticed when I rewatched not long ago, even without watching the second episode, is that Jon's power bar went up every time he landed in the middle. If Arin had even just looked, he would have figured it out. |

Favorite Grump: Arin Hanson (Egoraptor) Favorite Series: Castlevania I with Arin and Jontron Favorite One-Off: Gundam Battle Assault (Big Zam) As to why Arin is my favorite Game Grump, he made the Awesome series, the even more awesome Sequelitis series, formed the Star Bomb band with Danny, and he does wonderful, humorous impressions. Additionally Arin also has an awesome sense of humor, plus I have been a fan of his work even before Game Grumps started. |

Anyways, glad to see people liked yesterday's Nickelodeon Guts episode! For today's episode, we're going to be flipping back to the Dan era with a personal favorite of mine (and I think some other people's) Wind Waker HD: Fresh Air - Part 19! |

So, I took a bit of a hiatus from Grep after Jon left, and Wind Waker was the second series I watched all the way through with Dan (Super Mario World being the first), and I gotta say, this episode was pretty important to me. While it's pretty cliche at this point to be like "oh, Grumps cheers me up when I'm down", it's still definitely true, and hearing Dan talk about the stuff he's gone through like that really made me see him as more than just "Not Jon". I'm actually watching the video for NSP's Let's Get This Terrible Party Started right now, and with it obviously having Dan, as well as it starring Jon and being directed by Arin, it makes me reflect on how this episode was a realization for me. A realization that Dan isn't worse, he's just different, and both styles of Grumps can be equally valid. Honestly, whenever I fantasize about Jon being back, I don't have Dan gone, I have the three (plus Ross and Barry) coexisting on both GimbleGramps and Steam Train. But yeah! Windwaker 19 is memorable and important because of that!

For today's episode discussion, we actually aren't going to pick one from the vault. Instead, Friday's are going to be dedicated towards the past week's episodes that the Grumps have bee playing. So that will include:
|
Didn't Barry and Suzy both make their debut on Steam Train this week? I hope Steam Train will continue to feature all members of the Grumps in future episodes.
Super Mario 3D Land Similar to the Wind Waker series, I'm holding off on watching this series because I plan on buying the game at some point in the future, so I want to avoid being spoiled of the levels. Cliffhorse I really liked the joke about how this would be Barry's first and last appearance on Steam Train because he picked Cliffhorse to be played haha. I'm not sure what exactly the game is about, other than running up and down steep hills, but the commentary was entertaining and made up for the dullness of the game. I was pretty much was just waiting for them to run out of bounds haha. Unturned I have only watched the first episode but I plan on watching the others. It was getting boring and repetitive imo, but I'm interested in what will happen during the daytime. I like how Arin's style of playing was bugging Ross haha, as he was trapping himself in buildings. Castlevania II: Simon's Quest Hmm... I watched the first five minutes of the first episode and stopped. I'll come back to it but this is one of those series when the game looks really lackluster. Hopefully it will be like King's Quest, in which the commentary more than makes up for the game. Mount Your Friends This was a strange game haha. The episode was ok but definitely deserving of just being a one-off. I didn't watch the end, so I don't know who won, but I do plan on finishing the last five minutes sometime soon. |
They're playing Mount Your Friends? That's just about the weirdest game I've ever seen, I need to go watch that! Er, when I get my headphones. Although I do think it should be just a one-off, then again there aren't exactly many games that last more than a single episode on Steam Rolled.
EDIT: Wow I'm dumb it's not Steam Rolled I was just confused because Suzy is in it. Carry on. |
Super Mario 3D WorldI love the competition between Arin and Dan. Arin's such a cocky douche when he wins, and Dan's just like "all right, I won, cool" and Arin just flips. It's hilarious. The Grep Miiverse posts are funny too.
Cliffhorse I honestly didn't like this episode. As much as I do like Barry, the gameplay was INCREDIBLY boring, and the commentary never varied beyond "whoah, this game's so fun". I had trouble getting through this one. Unturned I tend to skip Ross/Arin episodes lately. My bad. Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest Oh god, love these. My favourite one was 4 or 5 (can't remember the episode number), where they had the discussion about selling garlic to people in real life... I was cry-laughing from the hilarity. Great series! Mount Your Friends Ech, do they REALLY have to bring in Suzy more often? Her ruining Table Flip and Steam Rolled isn't enough, they have to put her on Steam Train, too? She has literally made me laugh one time, and that was a joke during the Monster Hunter series, but one laugh is not enough to redeem the sheer amount of negative things. From her complete lack of skill at video games, to her better-than-you-all-because-I'm-Egoraptor's-wife attitude, to her killing any fun in Table Flip (like when Ross and Dan are goofing around and she's like "hey! We have a game to play!"), to her literally saying nothing funny or interesting in any episode with one small exception. God I hate her. Sorry bout that... |
A little bit late for today's video but it's a video nonetheless. An instant classic one-off if you've seen this before: Amazing Frog?!
|
Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest: Arin and Danny pretty much confirmed all of my suspicions about Simon's Quest being one of the most monotonous and unfair Castlevania games of all time.
Additionally, I have seen James Rolfe the AVGN play Castlevania 2 before, but Arin and Danny just make watching the game play of Simon's quest so much more fun with their jokes and own blend of humor, and I will admit they outdo the AVGN when it comes to humor, especially for Simon's Quest. |
Today's the first Rossless Steam Train, with it being the crazy Danny, Barry, and Suzy combo.
I haven't watched it, though. Honestly, I get nervous when I see Barry and/or Suzy on a game. And not even because I don't like them. One day, though. |
Amazing frog was amazing, especially because Dan had never seen anything like it before! Whenever I am introducing someone to Game Grumps I usually show them the Amazing Frog? episode.
|
Annnnnd flipping rapidly to a new episode to discuss for today, Nintendo Land: Facecam - Part 1!
For people who have seen this series, what did you think of it as a whole? |
