no milk all honey Mon Nov 11 with maybe margaret on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

good afternoon everyone :D

👾

beepboop

nice gaming 8bit sounds, which i'm huge on, but still smells like milk and honey, 8bit style

milk and honey (computer game version)

yep https://www.google.com/search?q=8bit+mario+and+sonic+olympics&sca_esv=f4c7e32cb0632b69&udm=2&biw=1745&bih=859&sxsrf=ADLYWIJyBSwASowAo5hrRb560lw96C2Ecw%3A1731345318961&ei=pjsyZ_WoOprl5NoP4JWZgQM&ved=0ahUKEwj1k-H149SJAxWaMlkFHeBKJjAQ4dUDCBE&uact=5&oq=8bit+mario+and+sonic+olympics&gs_lp=EgNpbWciHThiaXQgbWFyaW8gYW5kIHNvbmljIG9seW1waWNzMgQQIxgnSL0WUOMSWOMScAF4AJABAJgBQ6ABQ6oBATG4AQPIAQD4AQGYAgGgAkeYAwDiAwUSATEgQIgGAZIHATGgB64C&sclient=img

wait this is so cute

Yeah, it's a real playable 8bit olympic event in the unfortunate final mario-sonic olympics game

that 8bit segement even has a story, as mario, sonic and toad are trapped in an 8bit version world of the 1960s Tokyo olympics, set up by Bowser and Eggman to do away with them, which they got trapped on accident as well, haha

this is cute too! https://www.deviantart.com/deaththeshadow/art/Mario-Sonic-Tokyo-Classic-Olympics-Addition-1080816184

ahh i lvoe the trapped storyline!! that's actually so genius

yeah and eventually I got the tokyo 2020, after seeing enough playthroughs. Love the story events between the 3d and 8bit world. Wish they had a Paris olympics version, to see more 8bit additions like Amy, Princess Daisy, Wario, DK, Yoshi etc....curse you smelly international olympics committee in canceling partnership with nintendo and sega!!

This sounds like the song that would play during the moon level of a video game while you float around

why woudl the ioc do that....

and yes i totally see that!! fighting the intergalactic boss but in a chill way

perhaps this is a good time to say that i've only played two video games. other than like papas pizzeria and fire boy water girl

margaret - cause selfish reasons of ioc wants to partner up with espn and nfts for more revenue and money https://www.techtimes.com/articles/306973/20240801/mario-sonic-olympic-games-era-comes-end-two-decades.htm

a great time to see mario's ex girlriend, pauline there, but at least she's in the new mario party game, "super mario party jamboree"

Two video games only? Well the good news is there's about a trillion video games and there's no rush or pressure to ever play all of them. You do you. :thumbsup:

and yeah from the last link, this what daisy looked like in her 1989 debut, lol https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT3TCWIHW0mPkDwDdOwBpWBdtQ3Gf2lPLVtSQ&s

wait actually three! i've only finished one game (it takes two) but i play stardew valley and rimworld

also -- not nfts... yuck

and i do love mario kart, it's one of the few things i'll participate in even when i'm dead last

If you like Stardew, there are a ton of great spiritual successors. I really enjoyed Littlewood which was like Stardew meets Animal Crossing.

never played fire boy water girl and heard of papa pizzera games yet, but played something like balloon fighter and the classic nintendo 8bits like ice climber and excitebike

yeah nfts reek!! plus mario kart is eternal, i have mk8...also diddy kong racing

yeah, i love playing for fun, but not for competing and my campus is having a mario kart 8 tournament today

Games are meant to be enjoyed. As soon as they got turned into "investments" it ruined the hobby. This goes for tabletop games too which I prefer over video games. Sad to see a game fall to such greed. RIP in peace.

absolute 100%

i'll def check out littlewood someday! after figuring out stardew.. i'm kinda stuck in a place where i spend all day collecting my crops and i can't do anything else!! hoping to get it more organized or smth over the winter when i can't harvest anyway

ossy, i think that fire boy and water girl and all the coolmathgames.com stuff may not be as interesting anymore but i did really love playing them in the back of class in high school lol

I know there's a greenhouse you can get in Stardew. But it's been ages since I last played so I forget how. The good thing about the game is you can do things your way and still have a great time.

yes i use the greenhouse! it's really good for producing stuff that you don't need to replant, in fact it's so good that i always run out of space in the backpack and have to go back and forth multiple times between there and where i have my selling chest and fermenting stuff etc set up

I think when I played I focused on the mine first and getting to the bottom floor. Farming was just a means to get enough money to keep going deeper. Also I loved filling the museum up.

margaret - thanks will check it out, and speaking off, i played these games back in the days that no longer exist on the internet for free https://www.google.com/search?q=gulpy%20game%20kidonet&udm=2&tbs=rimg:CWsB0UsjPD0PYYMs6pZZvlUosgIAwAIA2AIA4AIA&cs=1&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CCIQuIIBahcKEwjQyoHF69SJAxUAAAAAHQAAAAAQBg&biw=1745&bih=859&dpr=1.1

yup i've finished the mine! i also unlocked the bus to go to the desert but i'm not strong enough to survive in that mine for more than like 2 minutes. need to get a stronger sword

You'll get there some day. Chat believes in you. :nod:

There's tbt in the days of strategic hilarious solving games named Chip's Challenge and Maniac Mansion and DOS Hugo 1, 2 and 3

gulpy looks so cute!!

thanks michael :D

ossy i haven't heard of any of those games BUT my friend did show me something called like cabbage boy commits arson and robs a bank or smth like that

Yeaah, looks like a living blue grape and the levels get harder, naturally, LOOL

oh it's turnip boy commits tax evasion and turnip boy robs a bank

wow, never heard of that too, and sounds hilarious, lol!

ok the pacman song is playing bc it's a fun song but i never liked that game bc i was so bad at it lol

Oh I have Turnip Boy on my Switch.

how is it! it looked really funny but i didn't want it enough to buy it lol

pacman got no ending, but to reset and make the same levels more challenging LOL

Pacman arcade wasn't great. Most arcade games were just for feeding quarters too.

no like i couldnt make it through like three levels for pacman i just do not have the ability to process games and also output with my hands

It's cute and fun! Definitely a game to wish list and wait for a sale. Which is my main strategy anyway.

Speaking off Pacman, wreck-it-ralph is the perfect disney movie to watch with this

yeah :/ i never liked arcade games bc they made me feel bad about myself LOL

i love wreck it ralph!!!

rewatched maybe liek two years ago and it still held up

galaga, is another arcade, but more challenging than pacman

oooo maybe we'll see it on freeform channel on their 30 days of disney/pixar movie month. Ralph is an arcadic awesome film!!!

Only arcade game I really liked was Satan's Hollow. And only because when I worked at Target they had an arcade cabinet in the break room and I got really good at that game.

LOL i'm sure you got a lot of practice

My friend made a joke of Jack McBryer(Felix's voice) 10k million, to say "Is it Mario?" when Ralph rang the doorbell XDDDDDDD

Yeah I took plenty "breaks"

paid 10k million I mean

I played hallow before, killing those evil demons. There was this other scary arcade game, named Sinistar, I played in the past...and other ones like Bubbles, Robotron and Root Beer Tapper

@ Youngseo (host) Intriguing show theme and great playlist today.

Sinistar was scary! "BEWARE I LIVE!"

RUN COWARD *ROOOOAAAAAAAAAAR*

Me and my two cousins got nightmare fuel from Sinistar, especially escaping from him and he causally catches up to you and eats you to death!!!! Can't imagine if they made a movie of it!

Being silly - Someone will say "can Sinistar beat Goku?", LMAO

btw also, like Ralph being friends with Bowser and Eggman here...a missed oppotunity to have arcade DK(currently Cranky Kong) interact with Ralph, since the wrecking barefooted guy is quite based off the ape

oh totally

donkey kong got a new name??

So the old arcade Donkey Kong that guy was actually Cranky Kong in the Super Nintendo games. The Donkey we know is from Donkey Kong Jr. and he's the kid in it.

woahh

so much lore...

Deep Lore

youngeso margaret - not since DK: Tropical Freeze. Been long since DK had a new standalone game, excluding his appearances in the Mario games

and yeah, Cranky Kong was the original DK in 1981, along with Pauline(aka The Lady), mentioned earlier, as Mario's original girlfriend before Peach!

so mario ditched pauline??

The nintendo switch game, mario odyseey has a NYC based city called New Donk City inspirted by the arcade game, even one iconic song, Jump Up Superstar sung by Pauline!

Yeah. Pauline got kicked to the curb for Rosalina.

Youngseo - Who really knows, but I guess Mario and Pauline decided to go separate ways of different lives, but still friends

mario odyssey sounds like a banger

also she's currently mayor of that NYC based city, she was even in the mario movie, but a minor char

Akiko Yano, immediately followed by Kraftwerk ... from Asian- to Euro-pop. What all-honey heaven I am in! :-))

chat divided on whether mario was a good ex to pauline or not...

thanks for listening richard!!

COMPUTER WORLD

COMPUTER WORLD!

once my friend tried to tell me that the entirety of super mario was based on a failed american movie from the 60s and he was just explaining the plot of the actual mario movie just lying about when it happened and i haven't believed a single word he says snice then

Mario was probably good, he works hard but would come home after work and ask where his dinner was while sitting in front of the TV.

wouldn't say kicked to the curb by rosalina, since daisy appeared 8 years after pauline. They got the quartet in sports and parties, as of jamboree and mk8

wait was it the relationship between rosalina and daisy and peach

well also, pauline made an entire wide city concert for mario in odyssey for helping her out and saving her from cranky and current dk

I've found a lot of great artists and songs I never would have found if not for WPRB. I don't listen as much as I used to, but it's like returning home when I do get a chance to tune in.

youngeo - I think it was between pauline and peach, where they left her out of the loop(til mario vs donkey kong 2 ds). Also, speaking of rosalina btw is over 500 years old

same, so many songs and artists, new to me and I never heard about since getting into wprb

i've also discovered so so much music since joining wprb! if you told me four years ago that i'd be listening to the song playing right now i would not have believed you at all

Like you were mentioning about how websites or apps will recommend songs or artists to you making to harder to find indie groups, I wish there was an option to only show songs/artists with under 1000 plays or something like that.

oh that would be awesome

i also wish that if we were going to get algorithmic recommendations anyway, it would be better at showing music that's actually similar. like no i don't want five bands from the same country to keep leading to each other! show me a contemporary guatemalan band whose sound is actually similar to this japanese one from the 80s!

Yeah, I agree 100%. I get wild recommendations sometimes or things I have zero interest in. Even putting those to ignore doesn't seem to help.

came across wprb via saturday reggae around 2019, then offically got into it 2020. Before that heard some great unique songs years back like Flying Lotus and Akiko Yano

my apple music kept recommending me charli xcx songs after like lorde and phoebe bridgers .... it is soo stupid

that being said i think the algorithm is usually pretty good for discovering new genres but sometimes it's just sooo stupid

Yeah, I'd never had known about city pop or dungeon synth if not for what the algorithm has recommended.

mentioning of dk having a new game earlier, he dosen't yet, but has a switch remake of mario vs dk from the original game of 2000s gameboy advance https://www.mariowiki.com/Mario_vs._Donkey_Kong_(Nintendo_Switch)

one random tune in on akiko yano years back before getting into wprb, captivated me

yes i would love to listen to more akiko yano !! super glad to have discovered while planning this show

also nice more donkey kong

Akiko Yano is great. I love Masayoshi Takanaka. The man is incredible!

there should be a Luigi vs Diddy kong, which will be Saturday Night Live satire

and thanks to wprbverse, know of ichiko aoba, especially on rosasolis dream

speaking of great Japanese influential people, any studio hayo miyazaki ghibi movie fans?
