Virtua Racing showed up to save the day! That’s a great pull. I don’t actually have a copy. But the rest of that box was kinda doo doo. Are y’all actively collecting the import stuff? Or is VGM just hittin you with filler? I know they buy all those at a dollar a hit and then fill boxes with em. A Fear Factor GBA game?? What didn’t they try to do a cashgrab of on that console! Lol fun video as always you two!
Very awesome box! Yeah Tom, you shouldn't rip that shirt it's too cool. I beat Banjo Kazooie a few months ago and absolutely loved it, and I picked up Banjo Tooie and I still haven't played it yet. Did you know that they were gonna name the game Banjo Kazooie Tooie, but they thought that sounded dumb, so they stuck with Banjo Tooie. As a kid I LOVED Fear Factor, me and my brother would watch it all the time, I never played any of the games though. At first when Laci pulled out the Sega game I actually didn't know what it was just by looking at the cartridge, looks cool though!
Cool boxs never played any of them
Seeing all of these video game monthly unboxings makes me want to sign up! Great video. ❤️
This series is just good family fun! I love the joy you bring to the community.
Virtua Racing is cool to add to the collection. That Circus Mikey game look fun and interesting. Can't go wrong with Banjo! All around a decent box.
Why do you tear the packaging when you have a perfectly good XActo Knife?
Have you done the Region-Free mod with the N64, do you have a Japanese N64, or how are you playing your imports?
So Fear Factor huh? Any good…
Cool unboxing guys ,) almost at 2K subs.
Cheers.
Great unboxing you guys!
Virtua Racing is an interesting game. I wish Sega had taken that approach with more games it would have been cool to see what else they could have squeezed out of the genesis.
15 months and no ups… This time we didn't get any bubble wrap or reminder cards. Soon there will be no games in the box. lol
The munchkin did pop in this time to help Prin with giving me hints though.
Some interesting games. Didn't even know fear factor game existed?
You have an interesting relationship 😆 . The circus mastery games are great games .
That mickey circus game looks like it plays identical to magical quest!
Great box! I had no idea there was a Fear Factor game lol
Very Nice My Nerds
Did you know that the full name of Banjo-Tooie in Japan is Banjo and Kazooie's Great Adventure 2? I didn't, I had to look it up.
Also, I believe the gangster weasels made their first appearance in "The Wind in the Willows" a Disney film from 1949.
Nice box! I loved Mickey's Magical Quest but I haven't gotten around to playing The Great Circus Mystery yet. I also need to try Banjo Tooie after Beating Banjo Kazooie last year. Virtua Racing is definitely one I want to add to the collection.
Awesome VGM box and it's always one Sega game with the rest of the Nintendo games
Nice video, Wes and Robert
Oh cool! You got Virtua Racing for the Genesis! I use to rent the heck out of that one. It was the only way I could find it. I was very happy with my April VGM box but I have yet to see any NES/SNES games. I think I have 15 systems selected. I've been debating whether to add the Wii or not. Banjo is a fun game, period. It's one of the few adventure/platform games that you can take your time with. It's not a stressful game to play.
I was wondering when you guys would be uploading your April VGM unboxing. I look forward to it. I agree with Cpt Frugal…the chemistry you two bring to the community is addictive stuff. Good to see you guys again and looks like you got an awesome box. Except for that Fear Factor. Then again I didn't like the show either.
Awesome unboxing video guys! Man Tom that was close with VR Racing..speaking of, I love Virtua Racing and I have that one and enjoy playing it from time to time.
Some pretty great games there from VGM Sir Tom and Lady Laci. That Mickie Circus Mystery is a sequel to The Magical Quest that came out in North America. And that was a sweet game. lol.
Nice box! Japan didnt like tooey huh? Haha. Virtual racing is great. Im going to steal your spider torture for mary
The Mickey Mouse Circus game looks great…..never seen that before 👍🏻👍🏻
This is awesome I got to get this you guys got a freaking big collection 👍
Man! Virtua racing would be awesome. I want to play it but I don't think it works on AtGames Genesis consoles. I loved first Banjo Kazooie game but never played the sequel. Fear Factor was a crazy show. I was scarred for life when I saw contestants eat some Scorpion/ Spider critters in an episode once!
Hahaha that intro!
I too remember that fear factor episode when they tied contestants to a railroad track with an oncoming train.
Nice shirts. There's something about Japanese games that excite me. Not sure if it's the cover art or playing a game I have no idea what the characters are saying. I would never play an RPG in Japanese although that could get interesting.
Great unboxing this month! The Fear Factor game actually looks kinda cool! Mickey games are always fun! Banjo and Tooie are so awesome, love those games! Virtua Racing is such a cool game! I absolutely still love that graphic style today! Great games all around! Thanks for sharing guys!
That Mickey game looks cute. Come on 2 Up next month!
Excellent vid ! Excellent games! , got them all except fear factor!
Think you should be ok with both them JPN games in terms of playing them, great box that guys!
I dread even looking to see what kind of score the Fear Factor game got…30%, it’s good enough to warrant a 3/10.
3:49 furry showed up on cue 😀
I know I've said it before but Tom you can learn Japanese by playing the RPGs you know by heart…come on Tom I wanna hear you say "May the light shine upon this brave warrior" in Japanese, lol. Nice pick ups in the VGM box, never seen a Genesis cart that looks like that.
Nice pulls and loving that ff9 ending and presentation! Who knew fear factor even got a game lol
