Adventures of Dino Riki
14/06/2015 Duración: 01h03minThis week the Dudes sit down to talk ANOTHER PATREON PICK! Did we mention that you all are awesome, yeah you, you are awesome. This week's game is a pick by Dude Joe who chose Adventures of Dino Riki.A lesser known title to grace the NES, Adventures of Dino Riki, is a difficult but fun addition to any D-padder's collection. It is a game that plays a lot like other Hudson Soft makes like 1942 but features a caveman instead of a plane.While this game is sure to cause some frustration (OK, maybe a lot) it is worth the pick up and the Dudes spend an enjoyable time discussing it.Retrofitted TrophiesDino A Go-Go: Get the turbo bootsTyrannosaurus Wrecks: Defeat the t-rexDino-snore: Lose on the first levelOh look a time travel machine: Beat stage oneCheck my new invention: Kill all on screen enemies with fireWrong game dude: Kill snifit looking bad guy Game RatingBoth Dudes give the same rating:Dino from the Flintstones Behind The Scenes Lookhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTC-dRB3NNMSho

Home Alone
25/03/2015 Duración: 50minAre you like the Dudes? Do you watch Home Alone all year round? Even when it's not Christmas time? Is your play count on the movie above 500? Well, then why not join Michael and Justin as they discuss the NES adaptation of the movie? Made by (now) famous development studio Bethesda Softworks. This game was voted on by you, the D-Padders, as the 2nd most wanted game for us to talk about. Interesting... Michael and Justin may not have been huge fans of this game but could certainly see why someone would want to play it for nostalgia purposes. So listen in to this episode and also, it's generating a lot of buzz in our brand new High Score Group so come check that out. We also discuss our Patreon campaign a little bit further.
