the continuation in part two of our last podcast episode which was about vintage

early 90s when we were playing them and uh if you enjoy what we're doing here I


just want to ask you to please subscribe please press like on whatever uh service

listening so let's pick back up with the Vintage Sports video games so once again


Sears being on top of the world back then they they branded the the in television also so you might see an in


television floating around with sear stamped on it didn't didn't know that until I looked this up um and yeah


Mattel they were they were huge company at that time and um it's funny that 20%


of the market sold that much stuff that tells you how much stuff uh Atari was


selling right yeah so so yeah I'll have I have IM Imes of most of this thank goodness


that I can put on the YouTube and you can just see how far Graphics have come over the years as the technology got


better so and then that really gets you uh David you were talking about playing


this in high school that really gets you up to when the Nintendo the old NES actually came out it came out in 85 but


I know for a fact we didn't get ours until 88 the NES I don't do you I know you had


one do you remember when you got it m basically oh no oh


wow no I mean probably about 86 well the only reason I remember when we got ours


is because uh somebody on this call I won't name who uh found ours in the trunk of the


[Laughter] car and got it out and had won the game


that came with it before he even unwrapped it for Christmas played I played it a lot ain't going to lie


mom worked nights so she'd come in it was hid in the trunk of the car Casey go out there on Christmas break we were


home all day he'd get it out of the trunk of the car while she was sleeping play it for hours put it back in the


trunk of car box and he had it came with the Super


Mario Brothers which he had already won before he opened it on Christmas he didn't even mess around with duck hunt


man he went straight from Mario Brothers oh man I'm terrible


that's awesome C I was a senior in high school and he was in seventh grade and I was like dude you better act surprised when


you open that thing is all I can say you better act like this is the greatest gift ever he's done worn it out


man in the week leading up to Christmas um so it came out in one


version that was you stuck the cartridge straight in the top and that's actually really from my understanding it's


actually how sought after by the collectors because it was more stable to


just like a a tari to just stick the cartridge in and leave it that thing that we all bought came out in ' 86


where you stuck the cartridge in a tray and dropped it down and they switched to


that design because VCRs were so popular and they thought people would associate


the thing with a vcr and even be more excited about it what they didn't realize was sliding it in and then


sliding it down actually made the the El ronics less stable inside of there and


so you had a whole generation of people who eventually the plugin didn't connect


properly and the games would start fritzing out on it and so you had a whole generation that had to buy a part


to put back in there and replace to make it the Springs going out and it wouldn't wouldn't pop up like it was supposed to


and I said you'd have the the trays would break and they wouldn't pop up like they were supposed to


yes and so but but all of that connection would get messed up and so your games wouldn't save right they


wouldn't start up right and so forth so all right so David got it we got it or


about the same time whatever so we had it at two houses and David's parents were always nice enough to let all of us


uh neighborhood youngans uh gather at their house but and stay up late


so Nintendo had their own version of B baseball which was terrible so we ended


up finding a better baseball game I'll talk about later but at the same time


according to the notes two different football games came out on Nintendo basically the same year well


they were one year apart so we got our we got our system in ' 88 and then in '


89 techmobile came out and changed everything for us that's why I wish Mark was on here


we'll have to follow up with him at some point point about techmobile so we started congregating


and playing techmobile late into the night after we played basketball or whiffle ball or


whatever and techmobile of course it scrolled left to right much better


graphics much better sound had the the cut SC cut scenes where they would show


a full-sized image celebrating a touchdown or whatever it kind of talked to you you know it kind of did the down


set hut thing and all that and how how many times did we play that against each


other there's no telling right what do you remember about those nights


David I lost a lot that's mainly what I remember and it was the game was


rigged no it it was fun it was more about hanging out than the game I guess


but yeah I do remember I never could figure out what the other guy was doing good


enough I guess not like Mark did that night with Chris yeah so Casey you were in high school I


was in Co or you were in junior high high school I was in early college and these guys were later in college more or


less uh that's kind of how the ages broke out and uh ourselves and a couple


other people we played a lot and uh techmo Bowl quickly I would say became


one of our favorites although we'll talk about some others that we played also it sold 5 million units it wasn't just our


favorite it was a lot of people's favorite and it was the first one that used real NFL players so um I've joked


about this on another podcast you know Bo Jackson was a cheat code he was he was voted the greatest video game


athlete of all time in one of these on one of these websites because you couldn't tackle Bo Jackson and


techmobile no it was it was unfair yeah we would argue I I will I


remember saying before you'd ever play fine I'll play play you but you're not getting the Raiders that would that


would have to be the agreement with anybody just about yeah cuz whoever had Bo Jackson and the Raiders were normally


going to be unstoppable even the Bears defense couldn't stop him yeah they're going to


win yeah um Casey do you remember the arguments about what teams you had to


get and everything and you couldn't have we uh we got we got a like a


Nintendo and pi I picked I did pick up uh techmo Bowl the other night uh me and


the boys played here and uh of course I think they knew you know like because


they watch YouTube and whatever but they've never played it and so we fired it up and right off the bat I was like


I'm getting Raiders and I just demolished my teenagers you know and they they were like oh the old man still


got it like yeah with you that's not that's not really fair with you playing


with Bo Bo yeah well um but what's funny about that is so I'm and so I was like okay I'll I'll


you know pick another team and so this was what what' you say 8 n no 89 when it came out and I'm


sitting there looking at some of the other teams and I'm trying to figure out well who who was really playing on that team at that time you know and I was


trying to think of who would be a good one to get well you had uh the Cowboys had herel Walker still he was hard to


tackle the Bears had pton and Willie uh was it Willie G


for a receiver um Denver had Elway I can't remember who some of those teams are


just awful on there but yeah San Francisco had uhan Francisco's good Steve Young or Montana whoever it was


rice and rice and Roger Craig and Roger Craig too yeah the Bears defense had


Mike Cleary May their defense was supposed wasn't they supposed to be the best defense on that that and the Giants


because some people think that they programmed um single ter and Lawrence Taylor to almost be as good as Bo


Jackson on the defensive side but most people never knew that and if you were out of position it wouldn't matter Bo


was gonna score even if you had Lawrence Taylor or single ter what's funny about


that one to me is you had to pick the only way to really stop somebody was you had to pick the exact play and if you


couldn't pick the exact play you had to at least pick whether they were running or throwing so if you're playing the


ners and they were the only team that had the shotgun from what I remember maybe Denver did If You're Gonna Play


the Niners and you picked run defense and they got in shotgun they were gon to score you were screwed you had to you


had to hope somebody could catch them but it was stuff like that is what is made it fun and you ended up trying to


out guess the other guy and so what David alluded to earlier at this point mark was living on


his own across town remember he was living over on the Arkansas side and in a mobile


so Mark was hosting games by then and I went over there one night I don't know if y'all were there or not but I know I


was there and Mark and Chris had been cussing at each other for probably already a couple hours by then and they


wanted to play one more time or whatever because you know we call them techmo tournaments we'd be like hey we're gonna


do a tournament tonight you know it's like playing basketball loser has to sit out winners get to keep


playing and Chris uh I don't know who had who one of them had San Francisco


and Mark picked like the first six plays that Chris caught it he picked them so


perfectly that it was three plays in punt then three plays in punt again so


eight plays in a row Chris got nothing but two punt out of it and he was livid he was slinging stuff around and


everything Mark was Mark would play just lying there on the floor on his stomach he could play on his stomach and he was


just laughing and rolling around and everything man everybody get so mad when


we played that that's what that's what I remember is how mad we would get so yeah so so that was that was big


enough but to me even though techmo was that fun what really changed it was the


one that came out in 90 which was nes playaction football and that's the one I


sent y'all two screen two screenshots of though it scrolled kind of at an angle


but but mostly horizontally it had 11 players the graphics were still not


great but they were better than anything other than techmo bow we would ever seen and the key to that one for us and


maybe for everybody was that you could buy what they called the satellite controller and plug two more joysticks


in and play two versus two game changer for us yeah because we always had four


Dudes around it seemed like and you just take what you had just done in whiffle


ball or what you just done hooping night hooping and just carry it into the house


two two on two so for those of you thinking what is that game it's it's


it's it's a little more on the Obscure side once techmo came out but it was a Nintendo's Z football they had come out


with a product you could plug those joysticks in and play four two on two and it was the only sports game I


think at the time they had that would would use that and so they included cards little laminated cards in the


instructions that you could show them to your buddy so you'd sit two together and two together you you hide the card from


the opposing team and show your buddy what play y'all were about to run and then the cool thing about that


was you could switch off players and block for each other do y'all remember that oh yeah yes so if you were the QB


you could throw the pass down the field and then you could switch off to the nearest receiver and become a blocker


for your buddy yes game changer for us now wasn't that the game that you could


run the option on that we always try to run yes yes yes so you would you'd run


the option you'd pitch it and then you'd switch over as quick as you could and become either like the tight end or a


wide receiver to block downfield um for your running back it was awesome and it was slow it was it


didn't move as fast as anybody'd be used to now but the fact that you could do it


in teams man that's that was everything to us that's I remember it was slow even


for us then because I think we were like trying to you know hurting our thumb trying to move the runners faster and it


was just they just move everybody moved so slow in that game yeah we had some battles with that


I mean some absolute battles Chris Matt Mark us I mean like it's it it's so


funny how it's the same thing no matter what we did if you lost you had to sit a while and boy you didn't want to do that


you get mad about that you know and then you'd sit there and think the the guy I'm playing with didn't do his part that


time or whatever and you're you know you're like dang he missed a tackle man it cost us look looking at this


screenshot it looks like there's 11 players on the field too there are yeah and that was a big yeah there 11 on each


side yeah because of the technology you kind of limited so that was a pretty big deal yeah and the screen it have to kind


of scroll and keep up with the action and and it was the first one that was kind of able to do that without it being


a problem and all but it it was slow the game the the action I can remember Chris running long ones and he'd get to


giggling while he was running hoping nobody would catch him you know it'd be like it'd be such a pressure cooker for


him to be running down the sideline hoping nobody was going to catch up with him and stuff he just start laughing


nervous thinking if if the guy busted it out of this picture you say they're on the 30 so they have 70 yards to go it


would take probably 10 minutes for a guy to run that 70 yards it seemed like was so


slow I that's the only game that's the only one I remember playing with four people that would have been it's the


only one we did yeah looks like that would have been a bigger deal I don't know what else they would have could


have corporated that with that's the only one I remember playing I think it was their first sports game that used


the Fourplay satellite and I don't know why they didn't come out with more maybe they did none that we played but that to


me that it's just such a big deal when more than two people can be involved in


what's going on and can sit there and we would sit there man until the we hour thank God David's parents were cool


about it because we'd be there till late a lot of late late nights doing that well because by then we were older I


mean you know yeah some we were older people by then older kids and y'all were


and about to be done with college I was in college uh Casey was in high school


so it was we were older kids we you could be doing a lot worse than what we were doing till 2 o'clock in the morning


playing those video games for sure that's true we what are you laughing about I said we


did that too oh


worse that must have been on Fridays this was Saturdays yeah yeah so I don't


know who on what I'm assuming somebody had to roll up two controllers and haul them over to David's you didn't have


four controllers did you did we bring two I don't think so I think y'all would bring you would bring two more over I


think I don't think I had four who had the the the Fourplay splitter thing I


think I had it okay must have because I don't remember us having I don't either


I think I bought it or got it or something because I knew we'd be gathering up at at the house and I think


just had you bring two controllers over yeah I think Chris would show up with his own controller too maybe so Chris


probably for anybody yeah that honestly if you added it all up I would bet


anything we played techmobile and then this game more than anything else we played because you could it just CA so


much fun to compete with each other doing that so I don't remember playing techmobile at my house that much I


remember playing over at Mark's place over there on Arkansas side


playing at Tech M over there I just remember playing this play action at my place all the time seemed like yeah and


honestly as I look at this time frame sadly that kind of was the end for us we


really uh we'll talk about the Madden stuff just for a second but we didn't really that Madden wasn't around when we


were doing all of this um our run with it kind of ended probably 93 94


somewhere in there after we've been playing those for three or four years um Madden didn't come out it came out in 90


um it was on the Sega uh Sega Genesis which we had and I put a screenshot in


here for y'all to see Madden scrolled vertically too it the first Madden game scrolled up and down let's not forget


about Nintendo baseball yeah yeah I'm getting there uh


I I didn't mean to screw up screw up things by jumping to Sega but I remember


Dave's house in between games if like there was an extra person or whatever Mr


Kaufman had a a a Commodore computer yeah and somebody would be over in the corner playing golf or something waiting


waiting to play football I tried to find that game that we there was a game on


there that I loved and David and I played it a lot but it wasn't an actual game it was a simulation game for


NFL you had a team's Playbook and it set the game up and then all you did was


call play and watch the action happened by the computer do you remember that David yes yes so it was a strategy game


you didn't you didn't Juke people and throw the ball and catch it you called the plays and the computer decided


whether that was a good play or not and we played that thing for hours and that was usually the one that I was over


there playing if I wasn't playing the Nintendo I love that game man I I tried to find it have no idea what it's called


and uh yeah so back to instead of Sega and All That back to


where we actually ended up so couldn't just play football on there all the time so on page three of y'all's things I put


a couple of more and then there was a fourth on page four um or a third on


page four there um so somebody had Jordan versus bird I don't know who I know that was on that little it was on


that little computer yeah that's you're talking about we played that a lot over there


yep and then we Casey and I ended up with that on Nintendo also Y and then I


know y'all remember the Hoops game that I put the picture of on there we played that too that was the street ball game


one One V one street ball I did pick that up the other day too and we've been playing it you remember that David it's


fine I don't know if I remember that one or not you I promise you you played it with us two I don't remember it by this


graphic incent I'm sure I played it yes yes it had a little short fat guy that


could dunk it had a girl on there had a tall skinny dude that dunked it had a little bit of everything and you had to learn what they were good at cuz like


one dude couldn't shoot one dude couldn't dribble it it was street ball and it played different than other games


but we did we did play a lot and then you said Nintendo baseball and maybe we


did play that but I remember Baseball Stars the most that was what that was on Nintendo


yeah yeah when you said Nintendo I thought you meant their brand no baseball Nintendo no Baseball Stars was


the best yeah if if it wasn't techmo or the football game it had to be baseball stars that we played the most my


goodness man that game was so fun but remember they come out with RBI Baseball


around that time or before that and that had the major league players and it had the Cardinals know


the Cardinals were good at that time had Vince Coleman and willing to get had all that speed and I remember yep Vince


Coleman hit it to the left side of the infield you weren't throwing him out and you weren't going he was going to steal the base you weren't going to throw him


out he was like the Bo Jackson of RBI Baseball as far getting on and the third baseman didn't have strong enough arm to


thr hardly anybody out much less Miss Coleman because he was like Superman fast on that


game I remember that and wouldn't I didn't like it because your pitcher only


last like two innings well because you throw fast balls and he get tired right yeah


baseball All Stars was the one that didn't have any licensing so it had the it had the guy named Pete that you knew


was Pete Rose but that's all they could call him and so he was a slap hitter who got on base all the time and remember uh


Baseball Stars was the first one we played where you could actually turn decent double plays and stuff right


wasn't that the game you could build your own team yeah I think so yeah it had a way of yeah it remembered a


franchise and all that you could build your players we played that a lot yes it it had the


it had the first game play that we had where a guy would could lay out at third


or on the infield could lay out catch a ground or stand up and throw a dude out at first that was the first game we


played that really allowed that so you can see on the graphics that


that baseball yes yeah nothing like killing a rally by


turning a double play off a sliding play by your short stop you know and yep I do


remember the Outfield you remember the Outfield play was hard you had to watch like the Shadow with a ball and kind of


line up with it or else the ball sail right over your head it was kind of hard catching fly balls on that


game yeah it was but it had Babe Ruth it just called him babe and it had Pete


Rose and just called him Pete and and stuff such as that so that they didn't get in any legal trouble but you knew


you knew who you were playing when you did that


um but yeah we played it a million times too we really did play play baseball star and then I do remember RBI with the


speed from the Cardinals and all that for sure and you know what's weird about


it is that only gets us up to about 93 or 94 and all of us old dudes man we were pretty much done with it at that


point yeah you know it it we kind of outgrew the whole concept in a way now


now in college I'm remember having we did a Casey and I had a Sega Sega Genesis and somebody in college did and


I remember playing a Joe Montana Football in college and it scroll GNA bring that up yeah it's it scrolled


vertically too but it was better much better graphics and everything and it was fun have you seen the U Madden


documentary David I don't think I have about the game there's a really good documentary


on maybe I don't know if it's prime or Netflix one of those I remember I've seen where it was advertised I had


watched it it's pretty good I like all the technical side of it but it's it's uh it's pretty interesting the evolution


of that through the years the thing I like after talking


about all this and and and playing recently on the Nintendo with my kids uh


which like you said we I know y'all kind of got out of it and I did too not long after this I played the PlayStation a


little bit but just the Simplicity man of of these controllers and the buttons and


and and not having done that for what however many 30 years now or whatever really the Nintendo and picking that


controller up and play with my kids man and and and all that kind of coming back oh man that's uh that's been pretty fun


I ain't gonna [Laughter] lie pro wrestling baby coming off the


top rope yeah there was a wrestling game Casey and I had that was fun it wasn't real wrestlers it was fictional guys but


it was it was fun too and um yeah I mean every you know we had stuff to the side that we played for


sure but um mostly it was these games we just talked about um we all had our turn


at Mike Tyson and this was before the internet when you knew what the good cheat codes were so we all got knocked


out by probably two or three guys short of get into Tyson most of the time we all took our turns getting knocked out


by some dude on there we couldn't beat or whatever yeah oh I'd get so mad fighting Tyson


and getting knocked out I hated that so bad um I will say this as far as us


getting old though David and I actually did do something else when PlayStation 2


came out uh David had internet I had this was early days of the internet it wasn't great internet but we both had


internet and we played uh Playstation 2 PGA golf him and elero me and Little


Rock and we would create we created our own characters the more you played the more you could buy shorts and CLE uh


golf shoes and and a better glove and better clubes and we had our characters created and everything and we would


play I'm sure with a lot of technological interruptions but we would play better than you would believe in


the late 90s or whatever we could play uh that game against maybe the early


2000s and we could play we could play 18 holes late at night uh you know when the


internet wasn't been being used for anything else we could play 18 holes against each other or with each other


yeah had our own little headsets we could talk to each other yeah had the headsets on you could talk to each other


and create a character and get out there and play that was pretty fun yeah that that was pretty fun remember we played


St Andrews yeah I mean I I don't yeah played St Andrews yeah and so


you know by then I was I think Dylan was coming along and all that and it you know oh you're wife made fun of us for


sure oh yeah she said we were dorks um yeah and the technology so much better


Dylan was telling me that the I think if I'm not mistaken there's another PGA game going to hit PlayStation 5 a new


one and I don't know if it's a Tiger Woods game or what but he was telling me it's probably going to be pretty cool so


um but yeah Casey I could Pro I can hang with Dylan we can play techmobile and I


don't feel so bad I tried to play I don't know how many times Madden oh yeah


with him on Playstation or Xbox and he just absolutely destroys me and I I hate


it man it's not fun you know no it's not it's not realistic I always hated it


when it's Fourth and 30 and you could throw a out route and turn it up the field and get a first down that's not


real that's not football you know I know get off my lawn kids turn your music


down man I know but still you didn't see any of


that crap happening in the NES uh what was it NES play action football you see any of that yeah no you


did not fourth and long in your own territory you're punting that ball buddy oh by the way uh speaking of those games


I don't know who I want to say it was Mark I could be wrong but I remember a


tense night very tense a lot of Anger of playing uh techmo over at his house and


somebody nails like a 60 yard field goal to beat somebody or 50 it's probably 50


back in those days but somebody nails like a a crazy long field goal for that game and beat somebody at the at the at


the buzzer and that causing a commotion you know stuff getting thrown and everything because you don't I mean you


just that doesn't happen but uh yeah so yeah we definitely had some fun with all


of that yep no doubt um and then you


know the the precursor to this besides the handheld games and air hockey the other precursor was that uh magnetic


football that buz you set the players on the thing and they yeah we had we had that I spent hours with that thing you


know it's that's so lame now but back then you didn't have anything else oh yeah it was it was great at the time


yeah the late 70s it seemed like yeah and then I know one reason the video gaming


slowed down was wasn't just because we all scattered cuz we were all still around we picked up pool at some point


and we would go from playing basketball at night into the pool hall and U in the


shop and shoot pool instead of playing video games so that that allowed us to play our music and talk more grownup


smack to each other and so forth so that was fun too we spent a lot of years doing that into the we hours well uh


video game and also started in feeding into work life stay up all night playing video game hard to get up go to work


next day yeah depending on our ages and stuff I probably had to get up all or


something the next day yeah what get he wouldn't yeah well you were working like


split shifts for the phone company yeah one time I was yeah plus the console


started getting expensive of course they're really expensive now but yeah you think back then a game cost


him 40 bucks that's a lot of money back then man yeah


money Sega was like over a hundred or something for the console I think oh


yeah I I will brag on I will brag on my brother a little bit and say that one


time he David you didn't work there anymore I don't think but but Greg worked at uh Kmart and uh they had a


video game tournament I remember that we didn't even own the G was it it wasn't


was it techmo yeah we didn't own it at the time we later did Casey went there you got second place in the Techo


tournament yeah just from playing against each us CU we didn't even own the game at Dave's house yeah didn't


even have I remember happening I remember that happening yeah that's how much we uh played it we played it a lot


and I I'm sure it was true that when you picked it back up recently yeah I gave Grant Casey's oldest kid I gave him a


console for Christmas that plays Super Nintendo or regular Nintendo gam so I was like all right y'all are on your own


go find some games and luckily enough there's still places around that will sell the the old games


and so Casey's been getting back into the swing of it with them but the Simplicity to just pop in the cartridge


and play beats having to get online and make accounts and oh and download things for hours and then put man you just pop


the game in and go that's what old dudes like yes yes


def yeah so uh that was kind of our run with it I mean everybody everybody else


of course then you know after we made it cool for everybody everybody else then jumped on and started playing Madden and


continues to this day but I guess like a lot of things we did kind of outgrow it it out it outpaced us at some point but


we definitely had our fun during the console days of the 80s and 90s for sure absolutely yeah lot of waste of


hours huh a lot of wasted time yeah not I don't know if it was I


don't think it was Wast just not uh productive yeah yeah let's call it that


like you said it could have been worse could have been a lot worse uh anybody got anything else they want to add that


that's kind of the old man run with video sports video games uh anything else about any I will I do want to add


this quick story because I I do think it's important but David I'll never forget your dad making chocolate chip


cookies for us more than once I was lucky enough I was lucky enough to be a part of that two or three different


times and it was awesome man David's dad would would catch about that while ago


yeah he would god what he do double the recipe or triple it or something he


would make he would make chocolate chip cookies that were about the size of a quarter and he would just he would say


I'm gonna go to the store and get a couple gallons of milk you think couple of gallons well when he starts turning out them all those little uh chocolate


chip cookies man and there's four five six dudes sitting around he had to double or triple the recipe because yeah


they were gone The Killing thing is he would start like 9:00 start making oh yeah yeah cook all night I hope you guys


want to dump a pound of sugar in your stomach at one o'clock in the morning because that's what's gonna happen exact


exactly yeah he did that multiple I'm not saying it was an every weekend thing but I can think I can easily say two


three four times that happened and oh he'd just be in the mood that he wanted to do it and he'd be like hey you guys
