Hi guys,
So you may not know this, but May 1st marked our four year anniversary publishing videos as SSFF. Which, holy crap, there's a part of me that can't believe we've made it to four whole years!
To celebrate, our merch is going to be 50% off for the rest of the month! ...
2019-05-03 19:18:00 +0000 UTC View PostHi yall,
We've fallen behind on our production schedule and won't be able to make the podcast tomorrow. We're going to move it to next Wednesday, May 8th at 2pm PT. We got some fun stuff coming in the meantime! We should have our video about Nintendo 64 cheats up around then.&nbs...
2019-05-01 01:49:14 +0000 UTC View PostEDIT #3 Patch Notes:
Hi all! Sorry so much for the duplicate edited versions. After publishing this yesterday we decided we weren't happy with the our original conclusion on Poison, so we redid it. I think it's something that explains our nuanced feelings a lot better. New ending star...
2019-04-24 02:23:10 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone!
This is the first time we've ever tried to time the launch of a video to a new game release, so the posting situation for this one is going to be a bit different than normal. This is going to be the youtube version, and will have ads on it by about 11am PT. We would have liked ...

Hi all!
So we got asked to make a quick cameo for the AVGN's new video on the Aladdin Deck Enhancer (which you can find here!).
In case you aren't familiar (most of you probably are!), when Der...
2019-04-10 23:12:54 +0000 UTC View PostHello supporters!
Well, we said we weren't going to make this an entire damn episode about Sekiro Shadows Die Twice, and despite getting some great questions, we still spent WAY too long discussing Sekiro. But we also talked about how the channel has shifted direction, which is someth...

The monthly podcast recording is coming up on Wednesday, so tell us what you'd like to hear us talk about! (Left to our own devices we'll probably complain/gush about Sekiro for an hour+)
By the way we'll be recording at 2pm PT, so if you're a $5+ member feel free to mark your calendars and...

Hi guys!
Happy April Fools Day! We didn’t make any joke videos this year, instead we asked our friends at Studio Goblin to make a video showing how they animated the version of Sheng Long that was going to appear in Street Fighter The Movie (the game). This will get posted on Y...
2019-04-01 16:01:56 +0000 UTC View PostHi guys!
Man, this video took a lot out of me! Street Fighter is one of the most important video game series in the world.... as well as one of the most nested. In this video we did our best to detangle some of the biggest localization mistakes Capcom made when bringing it market...
2019-03-29 18:42:37 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone! Derek, Mr. Matt McMuscles, and I have been scheming and writing together for the past couple of weeks to make a video breaking down all the nastiness that went down with DmC: Devil May Cry! DmC is a game that's as controversial today as it was when announced back in 2010, but I think...
2019-03-14 18:31:42 +0000 UTC View PostWelcome supporters!
Here it is, your exclusive Patreon podcast! In this month's episode, we talk about games we've been playing, Derek's experience previewing EDF Iron Rain, and an upcoming collab project for DmC: Devil May Cry. Also, briefly talk about an extremely awesome topic we'v...
2019-03-13 22:31:04 +0000 UTC View PostHi everybody!
Here it is! This is the video y'all voted on last month. We had a ton of fun (and mishaps) when making this video. Turns out this is a bit of an obscure topic! Who knew?!
Let us know what you think! We're also going to be recording the Patreon Podcast tomorrow, so ...
2019-03-12 19:14:16 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone, Patreon Podcast will be recorded on Wednesday at 2pm PT. Give us a comment or a message letting us know if there's anything you'd like us to talk about!
Also, new video will be up on Patreon sometime later today, so keep your peepers peeled.
2019-03-11 22:21:36 +0000 UTC View PostAnother episode of How The West Was Worse! Last time we talked Konami and the games the didn't (and unfortunately did) make their way to western markets. Now we're talking Capcom but instead focusing on their numerous localization blunders! It's one of our biggest videos in a while, and ...
2019-02-26 04:07:27 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone!
This is the podcast version of the update livestream we did last week. We asked for your feedback and talked about the state of the channel.
2019-02-19 16:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostHere it is! The followup to our GBA FPS video from a few months ago. Hope you enjoy!
We're still finishing up the scripting of a new How the West Was Worse video, but after that I'm excited to dive into N64 random generators :) Lots of cool stuff coming up!

Last week we posted a poll for 4 new episodes. It was pretty close (don’t worry, Multitap Madness will get its time in the sun), but Punching Weight: Randomly / Procedurally Generated N64 games took the gold!
F-Zero X, Excitebike 64, and Top Gear Rally 2 all have modes where tracks are ra...

Hi all,
Just a reminder that we are opening up the live podcast for everyone this month for a general Patreon update and for people to give us feedback! We'll post the link on patreon, so make sure you look for it here. We're also going to push out the edited version to everyone ...
2019-02-04 21:14:16 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone!
January was a slow month for us full of personal challenges and some shake ups in terms of how the channel runs. We’ve really appreciated all of the support we got from you during this tough time!
We talked a bit about how Grace had a death in the family and neede...
2019-02-02 00:19:41 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone!
This video is a bit different from our normal style, but it's something that Derek and I have been thinking about for a while. There are SO many Nintendo Titles out there with bad names. Great games, bad names. From being hard to say to head scratching, we collected some of our...

Hi everyone,
Thanks so much for your kind words after the last post! We just reshot the live shots for our next video, "Worst Nintendo Names, Ranked" (working title, ha). It's going to be a few more days before editing is done, but I thought I'd tease y'all with a sneak peak/outt...
2019-01-19 23:45:24 +0000 UTC View PostHey yall!
This month has turned into a bit of a mess. We came off of a brief New Years break ready to hustle but then one of Grace's family members passed away. Not only that, Grace had to fly out to be with family for the funeral service. She returned to Seattle late last night.

Welcome to SSFF YEAR FIVE!
It's amazing SSFF and this Patreon are still kicking in 2019. It was just as likely this whole thing would've gone up in flames and we'd have to sell all our games and move back in with our parents.
Anyway, we've enjoyed a...
2019-01-02 20:54:14 +0000 UTC View PostHi everybody! Hope y’all are having a good time during the holidays! Making a video on the N64 transfer pak felt like a perfect cap to a year chock full of Nintendo Peripherals. I think the transfer pak is truly fascinating not just because of what it does, but because of why it exists. We get ...
2018-12-28 09:43:13 +0000 UTC View PostThe year is almost finished and we've got 2 big videos for you comin'!
The first is an idea we've had cooking for a few months now. This is probably the most games we've ever covered in a single video and it took a lot of restraint to not get too deep into things!
This will go public o...
2018-12-18 09:37:38 +0000 UTC View PostHappy holidays everyone!
This month we talked about how grateful we are for you guys, our favorite YouTube creators, and what we've been up to this month.

The time has come! When we started Punching Weight two years ago, we knew one day we'd have to cover every GBA FPS. We decided to cut it into two videos but STILL, we're finally giving the GBA FPS library it's due time! So enjoy this episode on the ports and look for the original...
