We saved up negative comments for 3 years to make this video. Enjoy, and please comment some horrible insults. 🤣

Speech Jammer: Smash Bros. Commentary
What do you get when you combine Super Smash Bros. commentary with a couple of crazy dudes using speech jammer apps? You get kind of a crazy fun video, that’s what! Enjoy.

Just Dance Off! (Switch)
Somehow, Simeon and Scott were coerced into making this terrible video of themselves playing Just Dance on Nintendo Switch. What can we say? Whatever the patrons want, the patrons get. Join us as we give Just Dance 2018 and 2017 a spin, which is pretty accurate considering the motions we’re doing with our Joy-Con! Enjoy, and please DON’T share with any of your friends.

YouTuber Given a Switch by his Audience!
We did it. We banded together in secret and set Simeon up with his own Nintendo Switch. Simeon is a faithful YouTuber who has been creating Nintendo content for years, day in and day out. But 2017 hasn’t been easy on him and he hasn’t been able to afford his own Switch console. We thought that was wrong; as someone who reports on the latest Nintendo news, we thought Simeon deserved the latest and greatest. That’s why TBC viewers from all over the world pooled their funds to buy him a surprise package including the console, games, and accessories. A sincere thanks to all of those who have supported Simeon (and Scott) over the years. The Crew is the best.

Let’s Play Vs. Firsthand Experience Scott's Thoughts
Growing up, Let’s Plays didn’t really exist.
It seems like it started with advent of Minecraft, but I might be wrong because the whole scene has never really appealed to me.
To be sure, I can see its draw:
- See how a game works and plays before you buy (or instead of buying)
- Enjoy the commentary of an engaging personality on-screen
- Chat live with other viewers
- Watch expert players perform speed runs, advanced techniques and find secrets
- Free entertainment
Even with everything going for it, I just can’t get behind the idea of watching someone else play a video game.
Part of my hesitation is generational; I’m a little bit older than the average LP viewer.
Otherwise, it’s just not how I want to spend my small slice of free time. After work is done, the house is taken care of, and my responsibilities are attended to, I want the controller to be in my hand. That firsthand experience just can’t be replaced.
Ironically, I help run two weekly Let’s Play series, one for Switch and one for Classics. Make sure to tune in live on the weekends!
Yes, I am Intimidated by Pokemon RPGs for Kids Scott’s Thoughts
Have you ever been on the outside, looking in on a pop-culture phenomenon?
While the Pokemon games are some of the most popular titles in Nintendo’s stable, I’ve never played a full mainline entry.
I’ve had a weird history with this franchise, and beaten just about everything except the main RPGs: Stadium 1&2, Snap, Colosseum, XD Gale of Darkness, Pokken, a little GO, even Hey You! Pikachu for goodness sake.
I grew up a little bit after the huge wave of Red/Blue/Yellow hype, and have always felt that I missed the bandwagon.
People who have been with the series since its inception are still trading their pocket monsters from game to game, amassing a huge army!
It definitely feels like I would have a hard time just jumping in, although I know they create these games for a younger demographic and take into account franchise newcomers to some extent.
You know what still scares me? It’s all the nuance that’s built up over generations. Developer GameFreak still builds on mechanics that have existed for decades, resulting in an imposing collection of the unknown.
A crossroads approaches. When the Pokemon series debuts on Nintendo Switch, I feel like I’ll have my best shot yet of hopping aboard the speeding train. If I let it pass me by again, I may never catch up.
Worst TBC Episodes of All Time
Don’t forgive us!
#582 – In the past 581 episodes, we’ve messed up a handful of times. We’ve given you sub par content that doesn’t live up to our high-quality standard. What’s the best thing to do with those shows? Put them in a collection and laugh at them, of course! Feel free to make fun of us in the comments today. This is a day for fun at our expense. Enjoy!

What Nintendo Character Am I?
If you ever need your eyebrows slimed, call us first.
It’s popular with the kids and it’s popular with the squids – SLIME! Simeon and Scott are here to play with slime (in a Nintendo-like fashion) for YOUR enjoyment. So play along and see if you can guess the characters that their slimy faces portray.

Nintendo Slime Co-Op Challenge
You could call us “YouTube Trendsetters,” but… you’d be completely wrong.
#553 – Never seen a video like this before on YouTube, have you? We’re playing with Slime, and you can just chalk this up as a Splatoon video, alright? The object of the game is for us to get each other to guess Nintendo related characters, objects, icons and more, simply by manipulating stubborn slime with our bare hands. Should be fun, right?

Speech Jammer Challenge
The bonus materials for Patrons from this episode turned out as pure gold!
Speech jammers are devious contraptions that capture your audio and repeat them back to you via headphones, with a catch… a big delay that makes it very difficult to focus on what is coming out of your mouth. What then, will the results be when Simeon and Scott attempt to read humorous Nintendo-related snippets while hooked up to such an apparatus? Good news; you won’t have to look further than this episode for the answer to that question!

Stolen TBC Episodes
We demand compensation! Or at least a little bit of credit.
You know when you work really hard on something, and then other people steal your ideas and your work? That’s how we feel right now! There are a few channels on YouTube that are uploading videos suspiciously close to ones that we’ve made (and within a suspiciously close time-frame, as well)… If we’ve ever made a video that looks like someone else’s, we promise we would never take your idea – or at the VERY least we would give you credit and drop a link to the original! Can the same courtesy be extended to us?

The LOST Episodes of TBC
Would it not just have been the most ironic thing in the world if something happened to THIS episode?
Do you think every episode TBC has filmed made its way to YouTube? IF ONLY that were the case. Simeon is on camera today to fill you in on the episodes that are lost to time.
