009 – Theoretical High-Five
We’ve done it. We have successfully tunnelled a high five (theoretically) through the Internet. That’s the good news. The bad news is that both Erics are going to be a little less handy around the site.
Because their hands were destroyed.
In the tunnelling.

(P.S. I laugh every time I see that the REAL monopoly is on the poll. Sorry)
Listening back. I think its because Bailey said there would not be a board game on the retro showdown poll. We proved him wrong ha ha@Chronoslinger
Props to you Hunter for defending platformers. Platformers are dead! Long live the platformer!
(I only say props to Hunter because Bailey poo pooed Banjo Kazooie)
Platformers!!! @Chronoslinger
Serious lack of "poo" jokes on this podcast, people.
SERIOUS lack.
I mean... "Yakopoo", come on!
@TheRetroCritic gotta say this guy http://usagiyojimbo.com/newinuy/uy135/teaser.jpg
is all I could think of when I heard "Yakopoo"...
@TheRetroCritic I agree, and had the same thought when I listened. If I could go back, I would definitely capitalize on that more. Good call!
I love how Bailey felt the need to waste his 2 minutes explaining a 80 year old board game concept. Also I officially deem this Retro Showdown: Battle of the Ripoffs
@Bigjoe91 Wait, what? Monopoly was a board game first?! No way...
@NintendoLegend @Bigjoe91 Yeah, Bill Gates stole the concept from the Amish, simplified the rules, then turned it into a Star Wars spinoff, and the board game was based on that.
I'm pretty sure that's the story.
Agreed. @Jave @NintendoLegend @Bigjoe91
@Bigjoe91 I was going to mention that during the show but you never know... someone may not know what Monopoly is... Like people from Mars. Or Venus... It was huge on Pluto though. Too bad they aren't a planet anymore.
Hey. Kirby is totally cuddly.
My heart is sad that the e-mail address doesn't include the "le" at the end. Man.
