HEY!
A little late but here is your Patreon Podcast for the month! Discussion was dominated by the future of this Patreon as we approach the 5 year anniversary, and the coronavirus that's dominated the news (and is very active here in Seattle!). All questions about our relationship together...

Hi all!
Sorry this video is coming at you late in the day, I think we mentioned earlier that we had some issues with an editor this month that threw our schedule a bit out of wack, but we were able to edit this one ourselves. We should be back to a regular posting schedule next...

Hi everyone!
We had a lot of fun with the strategy guide video and had to cut out a lot of extra stuff, so here's an extended cut! This one doesn't have music, but we thought some of you guys might still want to watch/listen to it.
We're finalizing some touches on our next ...
2020-02-27 21:41:37 +0000 UTC View PostMy entire video game storage has FINALLY been moved out of Alaska! Which means I have all my strategy guides! But instead of just making a video about my strategy guide collection, I also wanted to tell the dumb, wild, and amazing history of video strategy guides. They're a really fun and often u...

In this episode we dish on how we are giant babies that should learn to manage our vacation better, future episodes, AND the state of retro collecting. We even manage to dive into some under-appreciated horror gems, like Siren (or Forbidden Siren) for the PS2.
I'm serious though, would you ...
2020-02-08 00:02:32 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone!
Welp, Derek and I are off to the races and we just wrapped production on the Strategy Guides video, and we're already about half way through our Half-Life Ports video (which were the top two results from the last poll).
We decided to let Extremely Casual ...
2020-02-07 23:45:11 +0000 UTC View PostThe first Wednesday of the month is quickly approaching once again! Which means we gotta freaking Patreon PODCAST to do! It's been an eventful pair of months since Grace and I last did one so there'll be lots to talk about.

Alrighty, here's our first official, going up on YouTube, video for January 2020! We've been slowly getting ourselves together and figuring out our plans for the year. Things have been a bit scattered and helter skelter; we actually edited this video ourselves becau...
2020-01-30 03:54:52 +0000 UTC View PostHello Supporters!
It's been a quiet month for SSFF. Producer Grace and I have been bouncing back after a long vacation and we've thought up a bunch of ideas for videos, but we weren't sure which one's to do next.
Half-Life Ports - Half-Life Dreamcast, Half-Life PS2, Half-Life Bonus De...

First of all, we got a new video for you! And last year, I had a lot of fun showing off the many dumb pieces of my video game collection, but this time I discuss my aspirations for dumb-ness. These are the extremely dumb (and pretty expensive) collectable controllers that I WISH I ...

I might be a little bit delirious right now, but it's done!! Here is part one of our video on the Kinect. There was so much story here that we fell in love with that we actually had to save the story of the Kinect on Xbox One and on PC for a later video. I'm s...

Hi all,
Right now we are finalizing the edit for our first Kinect documentary, and it looks like we'll be cranking on it for the rest of the day (and possibly through the night 😬). The video has a contract deadline of tomorrow morning, so unfortunately that means we won't be able t...
2019-12-19 19:46:26 +0000 UTC View PostHi all!
This is the wrap for our videos on the Nintendo DS GBA slot, but it meant we had to dig into one of our most dreaded topics, Pokemon. (Dreaded because there is sooooo much information on it!) That's why we decided to call in an expert, Lockstin! He's truly a Pokemon philosophe...

Bam wowowwowowowow thanks to everyone who sat with us during this podcast! It's fun to look back at the best (or even the worst) games of the decade, but I think it's more interesting to think about what was the most influential. The games that reshaped culture and the industry around them. So th...

Most of the time when people offer us a a game code or ask us to unbox something we say no because it's not what I think our audience wants to ...

We would normally record our podcast today, but we are hard at work finishing up our two major videos for the month, the Kinect Past Mortem and the follow-up to our DS GBA Slot video. So instead we will be recording on 12/11 at 2pm PT!
Hello supporters!
Your last video for November and it's a video made possible by our supporters! All of the games and accessories for this video were bought at the same time as the Dreamcast stuff back in August! Also, it turns out original DS' are quite brittle. Grace accidentally dropped ...

We bought a new camera!
With your funding!
We don't know exactly how to use it yet (as you'll see in the video) but SSFF is about to start lookin' sharper! It's not a super fancy or super expensive camera, a Canon PowerShot G7X Mark II, but this is the first new camera we'v...

One of my favorite topics is bad games. I've always had a soft spot for them. And a genuine love for, well... most of them. The concept of a "bad game" is an interesting one because I think there are irrefutable ways to evaluate a game as "bad" but still find it enjoyable....

Welcome to your first video for November! We visit the Dreamcast once again but we're all about the VMU this time! Had a lot of fun playing Silent Scope and Virtua Tennis on just the VMU! Plus this video finally got me to play Skies of Arcadia past the int...

Hi everybody!!
Wow, what a crazy October! We've had an amazing influx of support we've gotten this month – especially from the Patreon. We had lower revenue than expected from YouTube this month again, but the Patreon made up for it!! ðŸ˜ðŸ’– We're just floored by it, and we've been thin...

BTW thank you for all the feedback on the shirt earlier today! I'll be going through all of that tonight and revisiting the design tomorrow. I think you guys gave me a lot to think about (in a very good way!)

Hi guys,
We're planning on adding a new shirt design to our store based on our Punching Weight series. Derek and I both like it, but I'm wondering if we should still include "Stop Skeletons From Fighting" or some other sort of context added in.
What do you guys think? Is it...

When we put out our YouTube Horror Story video we didn't know what to expect. We definitely didn't expect our little community to rally and have the incredible growth we've seen in just the last 24 hours. We are both so grateful and honestly, kinda speechless! (Wow, a first for Derek 😂) <...
2019-10-17 23:49:54 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone,
When we filmed the Kenji Eno video we decided to talk about our update post from earlier this month, and then it snowballed from there. I'm sure you guys are sick of us talking about this by now, but talking about it on Patreon has been so therapeutic that we decided...
