So metroid prime and paper mario.
I hope ian doesn't get discouraged and brings back silent hill 2 some time, but after that excellent presentation i'm not sure what else he could do :(

I guess it's fitting for this group the first western game to get in isn't Half-life, or wow, or a gta but instead a Nintendo ip

I think close up cam is largely unnecessary for HoG presentations. Even the last 4 or so disregarded it as I assume talking into the main cam feels more natural. At the very least, the group cam should be up during the game reveals as it elicits the biggest reactions of the night.

And just a reminder that the final reveal should come down to top 3, then reveal #1 as it's the most obvious, then showdown between 2 and 3.

Can't wait for potential new studio HoG next time!

About the megadrive legality discussion there's major retailers sites selling the console with 1311 games. (They don't sell ilegal stuff)

https://www.submarino.com.br/produto/32871361


But the Tectoy site only includes these on the card:

https://www.tectoy.com.br/console-m...jogos-expansivel-ate-594-jogos/p/995040461825

- ALEX KIDD IN THE ENCHANTED CASTLE
- ALIEN STORM
- ALTERED BEAST
- ARROW FLASH
- BONANZA BROTHERS
- COLUMNS
- COLLUMMS III: REVENGE OF COLUMNS
- COMIX ZONE
- CRYSTAL´S PONY TALE
- E-SWAT
- FATAL LABYRINTH
- FLICKY
- GAIN GROUND
- GOLDEN AXE
- GOLDEN AXE 3
- JEWEL MASTER
- KID CHAMELEON
- LAST BATTLE
- WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP SOCCER
- SHADOW DANCER
- SHINOBI 3
- SONIC 3

So idk for sure.

Also the console plays cartridges If you have them except:

Eternal Champions
Sonic & Knuckles Lock-on + Sonic 3
Super Street Fighter II
Truxton
Virtua Racing

If it needs 100% confirmation the best way would be to send an e-mail to Tectoy.

Always enjoy these Hall of Great streams. One suggestion I have would be for everyone to count one can (not their own) and then report the total in secret (written on a piece of paper, for example) to Damiani to organize the final list. Currently, having Damiani count all by himself and opening presents in between is really slow and it kills the pacing and tension for me.

I know the current rule was voted on by patrons but I think this particular rule suggestion only won because it was posted early, so it got the most visibility and likes due to Patreon's awful comment system.

I was trying to think: what is a fantastic game that would be surprising to submit and likely quite hard to get in that I would pick, if I were doing this?

And my answer?

Donkey Kong '94 for Game Boy

This is the sketch part in TecToy's site:
* Tanto os testes de compatibilidade quanto a aquisição das licenças necessárias são de responsabilidade do consumidor.

Basically, they have the above disclaimer when mentioning that the system's memory can hold more games than the 22 preloaded ones. Roughly translating the responsibility of the acquisition of additional licenses is on the consumer.

I would bring Shenmue 2 and be terribly disappointed when some inferior Nintendo game got in instead

(kidding, sort of)

I think close up works really well for introducing the game, but for the actual argument and cross examination, it makes sense to have all the allies onscreen.

TTYD over Silent Hill 2??!! Oh boy allies come on this one was in the bag, especially with that determination from Ian.

The fact resi Remake is in before Silent Hill 2 is really baffling, this even more so.

I love how the whole presentation of Paper Mario was about how incredible it is and how people need to look past their preconceived notion of what Paper Mario is, only to be met with some of those exact dismissive atitudes when learning that it got in.

Ben just made a good case for it.

Yeah, the fact that multi people who didn't play it helped get it in should say something.
