In our previous Mega Man Trivia episode, we proved that Simeon is a master of Mega Man knowledge. This video, today, is here to prove that Simeon’s got just as much skill in-game as he does outside. And for your comparison pleasure, we have Scott, who will contrast Simeon’s awesomeness with pure newbishness.

Let’s Play Classics
Are We Any Good at Star Fox 2?
Star Fox 2 is a divisive game. Media outlets tried scoring it, but that was met with much strife over how a cancelled SNES game should be scored in 2017. Let’s put all that aside and actually play the game, shall we? Scott actually makes it way farther than he expected to in this run. Thoughts on the game? Comment below.

Back to Mario Kart’s SNES Roots!
Simeon grew up with Super Mario Kart, but Scott’s only played it once. This should be interesting. We start with a grand prix and end with a fierce balloon battle. Watch until the end for something you probably never wanted to see!

Adventures in Earthbound
Our patrons voted that we should try out Earthbound for the SNES Classic Edition, and their wish is our command! This quirky RPG is sure to be weird, if nothing else. Should be entertaining!

Super Ghouls ‘n Ghosts – Chop Til We Drop
Two Button Crew patrons voted that we subject ourselves to this torture, so we did. What felt like an hour of agony was really only 35 minutes of trial and error. And a lot of the SNES Classic Edition rewind feature. Thank goodness for that. Super Ghouls ‘n Ghosts may just be the hardest game we’ve played on the show, but watch the whole thing to see how we feel about it towards the end.

On this edition of Let’s Play Classics, Simeon and Scott are tasked with conquering the first few levels of Super Castlevania IV on the SNES Classic Edition. Will they abuse the rewind feature? Will they throw their beautiful new controllers in frustration? Find out, and enjoy the show!

Kickin it 8-bit: Super Mario Bros. (NES)
We’re throwing it all the way back to Super Mario Bros. on NES! The Nintendo Entertainment System: Classic Edition is getting busted out for some “not-so-speedy” speedrunning of this original 8-bit platformer that started it all.

This is What a GOOD Mario RPG Looks Like
Super Mario RPG is one of Simeon’s favorite games! Modern-day Mario RPGs have since lost their way, but it’s always a good time when you throw it back to this Nintendo/Square partnership. Simeon will even show us a few impressive secrets along the way!

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island
The “sequel” to Super Mario World on SNES, Yoshi’s Island, is a very different kind of platformer! With MANY things to collect, crying babies to carry, and plenty of eggs to toss, this is an oddball entry in the Super Mario series. But we love it.

It’s a ~Secret of Mana~ to Everyone
Thank goodness for Glen, or we would have been wandering around Secret of Mana aimlessly. This is a very interesting, quirky RPG from Square, complete with funny animations for walking up stairs and opening a treasure chest. It’s pretty fun! Watch and enjoy.

Surviving Contra III: The Alien Wars
Our viewers love putting us through the ringer when it comes to “Let’s Play Classics” games, and this week will be no differing. Especially because we can’t get the Konmai code to work! Simeon and Scott will be lucky to make it to level 3 in this tough-as-nails arcade shooter. At least they have each other to count on… right?

In the Ring with Super Punch-Out!!
Little Mac is one of the littler big stars of Nintendo’s original IP. You don’t hear people begging for new entries in the series often, but fans of the Punch-Out games often speak highly of the few outings he’s had. We’re turning on the SNES Classic Edition to give this game a spin, and see how far we can get in single player mode before being knocked out cold.

The Most SUPER of METROIDs? (SNES)
Simeon and Scott played Xeodrifter earlier this week, a game which probably wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for Super Metroid. In this SNES Samus outing, we take control of the bounty hunter and explore a mysterious world.

Kid Icarus: Remember to Hold “Up”
Kid Icarus was forward thinking for its time, but it never really earned the title of a great game. It’s fun to play for a little bit, but Simeon and Scott will be pointing out some of the game’s glaring shortcomings, and stick around for the end to discover why the NES Classic Edition version is potentially the worst!

Mindblown by Metal Storm for NES
Metal Storm is a hidden gem of a game. It came out late in the NES’ lifecycle, so it may have been overlooked by many. But this game deserves some attention!

DKC2 – Diddy’s Kong Quest (It’s a Pun)
Each week, Patrons of Two Button Crew vote on which classic game we will play live on our stream. This time, DKC2 was the winner! Simeon and Scott have played the original on a previous video, and weren’t too taken with the game’s weird graphics. Will the sequel win them over? Will patron’s feelings be hurt? Watch and find out!
