Oops. I messed up. A fixed version is in the works and will be linked and this video unlisted as soon as reasonably possible. Please understand.

For the pure, janky and unadulteratedly scuffed stream experience:

Since I actually PLAN around being unable to play new releases on the day Im assured release day delivery supposedly happens, and Ive been trying to break back into two-screened capture... ... ... and Im really also really-really trying to commit to NOT neglecting YouTube so badly anymore, I think I should really just rip off the nondescript corporate-unafffiliated adhesive bandage strip cheese food product and get around to posting stream archives.
Yknow, the way I always talk about. To NOT let Jeff keep exclusivity to the content until he throws it away in the end after about a month or whatever. Doing things like that, only Jeff wins. He wins sweet, sweet fractions of pennies that nobody actually cares about.
Whereas the thing we should ACTUALLY care about is the content.
That just leaves my general squeamishness about uploading entire streams instead of more targeted episodic content. But I think weve seen how well I manage with THAT of late.
Of course, this ALSO represents a rather borderline insane conceptual paradigm shift that was way before its time and my general preparedness to handle it: vertical DS capture gameplay variants. And Im STILL not exactly where I want to be with it, BUT... the idea is not as inherently insane as it seems like it should be on a workflow level, since Ive managed to iron out the biggest kinks in having not only commentary and clean-audio variants, but selectively including and excising an entire uncanny puppet show on the side.
Im like one logical leap away from making peace with every possible want and need when it comes to that and more, and Im just shy of being able to claim confidence and comfort with a MUCH less hassle-prone workflow generating all the building blocks of a proper production environment. (And that goes for 3/DS capture AND ridiculous puppet pal monstrosities, where the skys the limit insofar as how visually depraved we can get.)
Definitely PLEASE yell my way if you have any input on any of these things.
Do you feel brazenly neglected that Im not doing a no-commentary version in the properly landscpe layout?
Do you think Im out of my mind for not only focusing on no-commentary video variants, but also a portrait style version for mobile screens? (Again?!)
Do you think the full-stream archives are indigestible garbage?
Do you think proper episodic uploads, even sourced from streams, would still be far more manageable and therefore worth pursuing? (If its NOT watchable, whats the point in expecting anyone to want to WATCH them?)
Do you think its the greatest shame of all that I thereby cut my description-to-video ratio way too far in the visual direction over the verbose? (And most of the descriptions in cases like these are wasted on PRODUCTION NOTES?! Wheres the three-page thesis on the deep meaning of the Slench?!)

![[Super Game Boy] Donkey Kong #1. Humble Beginnings
But... like... celebrating Mar 10... with... ... ... a game called... just... Donkey Kong?
...Marios name isnt even in this thing!
Hes also like... black and white and some weird orange color. Are you sure this is even Mario? (Hes just some... Jumpman!)
Incidentally, this Donkey Kong design is itself the most... refined as yet of its original concept. Its particularly interesting, since it would be all but entirely supplanted for decades to follow without question scant months later with Donkey Kong Country.
And now, we find ourselves upon the eve of such as potential comprehensive redesign almost as sweeping, the confluence of film and the oncoming headlights of go-karts...
For extra funsies, hows about playing the thing WITHOUT the parts that ostensibly make it Super and not just Game Boy?
To get down to just the pixels and utterly defeat any purpose to playing it like this at all, try here:
https://youtu.be/5LKn8bnZERg
I think its pretty fun that the border is mocked up in the style of an old Donkey Kong arcade cabinet... although the details are a bit... strained... in order to fit within the limitations of the Super Nintendo video output with any degree of clarity.
Happy March 10 regardless!

Anyway, without further ado, I present... Marios first ever video game.
...or the enhanced remake thereof. Thirteen years in the making!
And I do mean ENHANCED.
What do you mean you cant tell, theyre such tiny little pixels blown up too many times even when they were on the absolutely minuscule SNES native resolution, then bordered to oblivion to make them seem even smaller?
(You wouldnt be one of those pscyhos who would prefer to stretch the whole thing out regardless of screen ratio, right?!)
Anyway, the arcade original is, at best, four stages. Sometimes some of them cut for technical constraints when ported over to other platforms.
25m
By far, among the most well-known and celebrated of vintage arcade platformer stages. Its... actually kind of annoying when you get down to it, though. I mean, who ever heard of barrels rolling down ladders? At their own randomized volition?!
That said, theres no better nor more familiar stomping ground upon which to highlight the improved faculties in Marios arsenal. Hes some kind of miraculous gymnast! Acrobatic privileges heretofore unseen and unimagined, at least not until two years later when he would prance about in three dimensions for unprecedented mobilities to revolutionize the platformer all over again as we know it.
To wit: he can no longer simply subsist on Jump, man! He can handspring! He can backflip! He can toss a hammer skyward and collect it once more as it descends! Most significant of all, he can fall an entire height of his own without instantly perishing! Remastered, indeed!
50m
For my moneys worth, this one is the most particular fever dream stage of the lot, since I mentioned that compromises notably had to be made to make the whole surely massive game that is Donkey Kong fit on other formats.
Its notable that Nintendo itself commissioned a variant of the NES port for its Virtual Console purposes in anniversary celebration that reinstated this one... to unusual technical dismay, but surely technology has advanced far enough to permit such hackish measures?
75m
I would say, in modern days, perhaps among the most infamous of stages, perfectly preserved for the ages... much to the ongoing suffering of the newly exposed.
Its historically fascinating level design, to be sure... but not exactly well-suited to being used in a quasi-competitive brawler context.
And dont even get me started on completionists of yonder newfangled three-dee collect-a-thon platformers the likes of which Jumpman himself eventually unleashed upon us all... the confluence of the subgenre and Donkey Kongs own lineage! ... ... ...and all for a paltry token with Nintendos own mark emblazoned upon it?!
100m
A strangely open-ended and, dare I say... proactive... stage? No longer content to present you an obstacle course from point A to point B, Jumpman is presented a task: walk across these... floor bolts... and they disappear. But whatever would happen to this structure if they were all removed?
And there you have it. The classic tale. The origin story. Never has it been so utterly... palatable? Jumpman gets the girl and all is well! We can once more bury this dusty old relic in the annals of history from whence it came.

Sensing the games time was nigh, we actually set about giving the old girl a mighty sendoff.
We... kinda... ... ... somewhat succeeded?
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is over a decade old at this point, and it EVENTUALLY accumulated a preposterous amount of content. I think we got pretty far along for what we were trying to do?

![[Gameplay Only] Mina the Hollower 6. The Definition of Insanity
Is trying to crush audio problems with tests that take hours to manifest regardless...
Unfortunately, the thing I tried didnt actually fix the audio issues as hoped... BUT... knowing how to quit around the time theyd start getting severe? ... ... ...why does my computer want me to be healthy and STOP streaming after X number of excessive hours consecutively, huh?
(I also made headway into getting Jeff to stop ruining things for the YouTube audience instead, but Im not entirely sure without any real evidence to establish whatd happen otherwise...)
If you can REALLY sacrifice 10x overkill native resolution in exchange for a glorified talky-talky bobblehead:
