TW's dumb sports game obsession, running down original Xbox games, and one of the worst games we've played in a while. Apologies for the music at the end, but that's honestly what the experience of playing this game was like. Why did Nintendo bother re-releasing this, seriously?

After weeks of talking about it, we finally decided to muster up the courage to be free.

Spiced Coke, Korean soda habits, and horny Rareware throughout this episode! I'm pretty sure that Battletoads is deeply overrated as a franchise.

We're talking One Piece this week! Sort of! Tom is way behind in the manga, and TW watched a couple episodes of it back in 2006 or so, and also the whole thing is much older than we thought.

Turns out we both, independently, started playing Monster Hunter Now, the first Niantic game that has made any sense at all since they released Pokemon GO.
