Extra Innings (SNES)

Extra Innings (1991) is a primitive SNES baseball game that offers great music and fun gameplay. Don't let the anime-like nature of this game throw you off - this one is perfect for parties.

Baseball Quiz:
1) What's a "baseball" and how much does it weigh?
204) How come Baseball and Football are separate sports? Isn't that segregation and discrimination? It's 2018, people.
31) How many touchdowns does it take for the baseball goalie to divide a tennis puck by the power of 72 oofs?
D) Why doesn't the batter just catch the ball and run? Hitting the ball just makes it easier for the other team to find it.
J) How many Baseball bats could you make out of what's left of the tropical rain forests and why do we even still have rain forests in 2018? 🤔

Bomberman (NES)

Bomberman (1989) is an action maze game for the Nintendo Entertainment System. In this game, you're a robot who blows up creatures with bombs. A pretty simple concept, however, I was not able to get the hang of it. Nevertheless, the game was a fun experience for me and I recommend it. In particular, this game would be super fun at parties. The sequels are are also highly praised and are worth playing with friends.

Some Weird Survey:
1) How did the use of bombs in this game get past the ESRB rating system?
2) Why wasn't Link the main character (Note: This decision could have saved pixels)?
78) What's the name and gender of Mario and Sonic's illegitimate child?
92) What would you do for a Klondike bar?
93) What would you not do for a Klondike bar?
94) What would Super Mario do for a Klondyke bar and a shroom?
96) Why does Sonic lose his rings when he's hit by an enemy? Note: This never happens to Mario.
97) What's the difference between a math problem and a meth problem?
98) Which habitat is Waldo found in Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2007?
99) Why bombs? Why not My Little Pony plush dolls?

Thank you for your time. Oh yeah, and thanks for watching VGA Chronicles.

The Epic Challenge of Arkanoid on the NES

Arkanoid (1987) is a classic game based on a game usually referred to as "Breakout". In the game, you are a spaceship in some strange universe where you must deflect a ball of energy off of your ship and into giant bricks, which disappear once you hit them enough times. It's not really supposed to make any sense. The game itself is mildly addictive and also very difficult. It takes much practice and skill to achieve high points and level up. The controls are also very unique, as a special analog controller, known as a Vaus controller, is required to play it. And once you get a feel for the game, it's very apparent why. Overall, this game is fun. It has a two-player option and I highly recommend this game for group events. If you're interested in buying this game, having the Vaus controller is a must.

Ball Quiz:
1) What's better: More balls, or less balls?
2) On a scale of 1 to balls, how many balls is this game?
3) Legend has it that Super Mario was intended to be the original pilot of the Vaus, but was fired from the project in favor of Bomberman. However, Bomberman declined the job offer. So the question is, who was the actual final captain of the Vaus ship and how did Shigeru Miyamoto allow this disaster to unfold?
BONUS) How many balls does it take to screw in a ball bulb?

Thanks for watching Vaus Chronicles. Paddle your balls.

Blockout (MS-DOS)

Blockout (1989) is a puzzle game for MS-DOS. In short, this game is Tetris in 3D, from a bird's eye view. The controls are strange and overall the game isn't very fun. I'm not sure how this game could be made better, as the concept itself is entirely too ridiculous. On top of that, the game has no music! What a ripoff. Still, props to the people who had the guts to make such a hard Tetris variant.

Description quiz:
A) Tetris vs Columns: Which is better?
B) There's a rumor going around that Tetris has been ripped off too many times.
C) How many more videos until VGA Chronicles Guy runs out of survey question ideas?
E) You're in an alley. You have 5 Yoshi eggs. 3 hatch, but 4 remain. Suddenly, Super Mario appears out of nowhere and throws 10 fire balls at you. If 17 Luigis block the fireballs, while 2 Pikachus and 60 Samus Arans take control of the situation, how many Bowsers are in the alley by 3 p.m.?

Thanks for watching VGA Chronicles. You are cool.
