Thanks for tuning to the Devastro's radio and welcome to another versus battle edition Something special, we've got the turbo tournament edition. It's the versus battle turbo tournament I mean we've been paying our dues on the mediocre games really, haven't we? We've been doing it obviously you've heard the mediocre battles you've had we're doing some good work But it's obviously gone all the way up the fucking chain. We had fucking Donkey Kong who was essentially president of Nintendo fucking Unintended, where are we?
We don't even know, America and Nintendo Japan, where but don't come to fucking big bad He said a lot of the work you've always been doing in their mediocre games. I've got a fucking assignment for you I've got the fucking a SNES Mini. We need you boys to fucking track what's the fucking top game on the SNES Mini It's a big fucking deal mate. There's a lot of versus battles going to map on it.
I know it's going to be a lot of work We've I've heard you two boys. I love what you've been doing. Can you just do justice to the fucking SNES Mini versus battle? He did say to us not to include star Fox two.
He said he said this regarding it He said he said he's not gonna fucking run a coming halfway through the fucking jumping on the end I mean he said it's not even a real game that that's a point he did say that He said don't say that because if Fox is that he's gonna fucking crying to his point again, so that is true. Yes, but don't say it I'm a really because Fox will be fine. I won't say it. I won't say it.
Yeah, but we are we are disregarding star Fox please They get excited. It's a game Only fucking appeal on this and also it's 20 games and star Fox was the 21st game. So this whole tournament wouldn't work He's fucked off. Yeah, otherwise We basically got a nice big bracket in front of us.
We're gonna pull out all the names and we're gonna build some This completely random. They're all doing a little turbo sports radio mug. Oh, yeah, that's all named in a hat That is yeah, we say mug yet named in a hat All cut up folded up so we can do some little draws here and see what we're coming up with It's completely ran all the fuck all the battles all the first fights is completely random So yeah, we might be disappointed as you as when someone needs come out and we can put out that you know obviously I'm gonna be going in for a street fighter. I'm a met toy by myself.
So we're gonna see you know Mario's It's a tough one and you know you've got secret Amarna Maricar Donkey Kong itself Something different as well because they are not when we did the mediocre's we did try to keep them I mean, we know we didn't similar case almost similar. Someone would be crazy. We do admit but this one It's gonna be it literally could be anything against anything So you're in for right the same as we are. Yeah, so when you get Street Fighter versus Maricar's racing game versus beat Muff.
Yeah, it's gonna be a tough one and we're gonna get there's no battles today, you know You got tuning for the next episode for the battles. It's just a draw. This is the draw see what matches we've got Maybe post a little bracket up, you know next to the front of their eye post the bracket or something You know, maybe not maybe just take a picture of a kid one of us This is this is all I've live, you know, this is this we don't we can't fudge this can't again It's not shenanigans gonna be that's what we're saying We we could be just as this point as you when the first fucking battle is Mario versus Street Fighter or something like that Yeah, this is the proper essence of a versus battle Every draw is gonna be kind of broken down through graphics gameplay kind of music level, you know, we'll have we'll have a really refined on the The five-point structure, but and we've been looking to the sales as well. So it should be a fair Yeah, we've done that fucking we've done a work on this one.
Don't you conge said don't take a piss this boys the mediocre You can mess around but this is this is serious shit now. We need to know what's number one for the SNES mini Yeah, who's crowning the SNES mini? Yeah, so we'll see so it's not and again It's not the top games that have probably ever been on the SNES because this is literally just the SNES mini If you've ever if you've got a SNES mini or you haven't seen it It's literally they brought out in the SNES in a tiny palm in your hand type of deal They chucked on 20 games and star thoughts too and this is literally those games you're working out which is the best Yeah, so it's don't get your you niggas in a twist if there was a game, you know, you paid buzz be on the SNES They couldn't put buzz beyond that. They had a deal with Capcom.
They had a deal with Square Soft. That's about it Yeah, that's about it It's a good the SNES mini is a good little thing. It's a great section. So I suppose maybe we may as well run to run down the games now Before we kind of do any draw and they know what's come drag us out a little bit We'll just we'll run through some of the games So I suppose you've got a box there and you got a box in front you make you should be able to run through them run them off So we've obviously got Mario Super Mario world That's in that's big building on there.
He's obviously the big king of the Nintendo. We got super metroid personal favorite of mine So the game mate, I'm gonna be with that one star Fox. I mean I played star. It didn't really resonate with me to be fair It's got the stout ability.
Yeah, but then when you play it again Not so much but it does have the stability good soundtrack as well. Yeah, you can stand there stuff going through it We've got Final Fantasy 3 again. I wasn't when I played a big time in the past, but I did play on the SNES mini I did quite enjoy it to be fair. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so kind of now on again same for Super Mario and the RPG 7 stars and that's what's coming in yeah, the seven stars I did play in the past But I did play on this next minute again.
It's quite it's quite enjoyable. I will say I'll have to before we do the You know the first round I'll have to have a little go on it. I played every other game apart from that. Oh, it's quite good I got you have to give it like some games we can you have to give it like probably like 10 20 minutes I get going but once you sort of get into it, it's quite a nice little RPG So that's just a ton of pt you have to time your pounces on the mike goomba's head So it's a little we jump on the head and you have to pay a or b at the right time And if you do it properly you can just keep jumping on someone's head to their dead Oh, I know so touch is not actually junkie con country classic My Great levels great soundtrack good graphics.
No, it's a strong it's a strong contender. Yeah, it's a strong contender But then also F0 Game and it's a lot of games a lot of games a lot of games as well secret mana Could completely different games, but oh just so much fucking so much memories playing them So much exactly and if it all the same price these games make secret mana, you know the way You know how much game you get for that game is really different We got Castlevania for Super Castlevania for yeah, all right, you know, maybe not as good as Simon's quest It's all right. Yeah, I mean, yeah, I've yet played it doesn't resonate a lot with me But it's not a bad game super Mario Kart beautiful beautiful game you'd so many fucking hours Top tier zelda. I have a big zelda fan.
I did like a legend of Zelda So I'll probably I'll be we'll be going a little bit for that one as well. I'm a it's Zelda So it's it's got that weight behind you know, it's a classic, you know, it's got logos It's got sound track. It's got sounds, you know, even sound the sounds in Zelda everyone knows the sounds Yeah, so it's it's got that it's got that I mean the sound really come up as arse I've got this as big amount of stuff to go on there next up we got mega manx I was more than making an x2 fan, but I do appreciate mega manx as a game I'm definitely more than a big man x2 as well, but still great soundtrack great. Oh, yeah Okay, I've got a lot of weight behind it again.
So yeah, it's gasket be contender, but always make makes to be bad. Yeah, it is no it is bad Is X2 when you start on the cart on the first level? You know, we're gonna go sweet speed about it. Yeah, yeah, yeah It's like You don't even get to play that level again.
Yeah, the menu screen. Yeah, well, that's one and done Maybe do you get a little speed about get his nice next up is Kirby's all stars, which is Game to one The main game of it is all right. Have you played rest of it is a bit like is it a bit necessary? Have you played the um Like the it's like a Japanese kind of like samurai fight or whatever.
It's a timing thing. Oh, it was either on the perm stadium. Yeah, you know, there's this Do it's yeah, it's quite good. It's a you know party game.
Yeah, it's a mini game type of thing. Yeah. Yeah But then we got Kirby's dream course was a great golf game a great golf game. Yeah, you use sort of egging out a slag it off And that was turn me I kind of it's because it does it quite hard and quite frustrating.
So that is a good sign of a good game Yeah, I've not played it a lot. It's sort of it wasn't it wasn't something I enjoyed but then I can say everybody to revisit I can say I will we get me after we visit this we have to By law by law. I don't come to law. So I will revisit but yeah at this point in time not what's I mean You know, so I do that's got this magic really is a fucking some of the fun I had on that such a unique game as well Mate that that was soundtrack graphics actually the graphics Oh, yeah, they work it quite cartoony, weren't they?
Almost like the paper mario before paper mario. Yeah, yeah, that's all those thick lines with those thick black lines round open a touch of 3d touch of 3d and They're not full obviously Beautiful round egg and then we got super goals in go boys up so it's a super goals and go planes no goals and ghosts is it was Those which that's that's that mean I've been on every platform. That's I mean it goes and goes and goes is a bit too fucking everywhere Yeah, but it's a classic platformer When he's in his armor and then you hit and then you're in his pants. I do like that, you know He's got a knock about his pants.
I still get a job done. So yeah, I mean he's got a long go from there I'm giving a great deal. He went quick will he say Conch your free daily wars hardest game ever I was playing that the other day and obviously when this gets you know, we get the draw done and it's in a In a battle I got it with deeper but I was playing it with safe space the other day to see how far I could get in it It wasn't very far to get part of first level. Yeah, yeah, we've say only was safe space.
Yeah, it's proper cracker than it Just fucking bullets. I can go everywhere. Yeah, that's pretty solid one earthbound again a completely unique game So it's completely different. Yeah, not one I ever complete it's a lot of hours on it I don't think I ever got to it.
Yeah, it's the Pokemon of this of this, you know a Pokemon were to be on the Super Nintendo It's essentially is the same game. It's that sort of same movement Uh, oh, yes, they'll get you know, it's that sort of top down little fella. Yeah, that's what deal. Yeah, that's what deal Yeah, enjoyable.
It isn't like I mean I didn't do it. Do I enjoy it? It's what's going on is I don't think it's drag out for me I mean it's just setting time for discussing it. It's on the list.
Yeah, it's on the list. It's on the list Then we got super punch out. I actually like it. Yeah, but it's limited.
Yeah, why don't you buy one fight? You've had them all but popular though. I tell you know, that's on a lot of best next game's ever list It's next game's ever list of super punch out people seem to like it. It's simple.
Yeah, it's simple one punch. Yeah, and then last but not least because you got fucking two Street Fighter turbinate. Yeah, that's my favorite game of all time. It's gonna be tricky tricky one It's got some weight, you know, it's it's it covers it ticks a lot of boxes Street Fighter II turbo, you know It's one of them.
So it's but Like we said before, it turns up against Marrow super Mario World. It's like fuck sake. It's going to be tricky one. You know, what's going on there?
But like you said, there's some fucking quality games on there. So it is going to be like, I don't know the thing is we don't know who he's up against too. So this is the most fucking That's it. So we're gonna be uh, but I think what we'll do mate, we'll just take one out.
Each take it turns take one out. So each kind of each round as opposed we're creating the versus battle for each round. So we've got two sides of our bracket which will lead into the final so 10 games on each side. So we'll just draw them out one by one and the way it kind of works.
We've drawn them out and they're just going to it's just going to be bracket per bracket versus battle per versus battle. So each each kind of two that we do are going to be a versus battle but there are a couple of buys. Yeah. So in the first round, even though this is not in all, you know, we won't be picking them in order, but you'll get it anyway.
It doesn't really matter. There's there's going to be a couple of you know, a couple of games that get a buys in the first round and four games after battle out to get to that first round. And this again, luckily, yeah, we don't know who's going to get by. It's going to be done because otherwise you couldn't pull it off.
Yeah, there's no other way of doing it. Right and let us know if you can do a bracket that way, you can't. It's impossible. Yeah, we really try.
And this is the only way we can do it. But if you Google, this is the best way to visualize it. If we don't put it on the artwork, which I might do might not, just Google 20 game, a 20 team tournament format or whatever, you know, tournament bracket, you'll see what we're working with. Yes, exactly.
There's no way. You can't do any other ways. That's fine. So I guess the next step.
Well, for a do. Yeah. So we go inside a first, we complete side A. Side A and we so in this one, this is this is a second round pick.
So these are two games that are going to get by, kind of into the second round. Yeah. So mate, you might as well pick the first one out. Oh, so what we got?
Okay. I'm rolling it. I'm rolling it. First up we have got Super Castlevania.
Castlevania. Here we go. Cool. I mean, I'd be nice, thematic if nothing else.
Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Good. Give me it.
Yeah. Yeah. I do this one yet. Against earthbound.
Interesting. Interesting. Don't we have a dog going to fight there? Yeah, no, I'm going to say that.
I mean, it's a good one. No, I mean, that's a good one to sort of work on because if we haven't got a dog in the fight, it's easier to sort of platformer, you know, classic platformer against, you know, top down kind of open world sort of deal. So it's a happy, almost a happy, yeah. Yeah.
I mean, so Jay, Jay, Jay, Jay, R.P. Jay, Japanese R.P. Jay, Japanese R.P. Jay, probably won the four bears.
That versus one of the precursors to the old Metro Vania series. So there's a couple of like, there's some stuff going on there. There is. Yeah.
Yeah. It's an interesting, it's a good versus battle. Yeah. It's a good versus battle.
Yeah. So next up. So this, these one is going to be the first round. Yeah.
First round. So this is, this is a game that's going to have to, you know, if they go on to win it, they've really earned it because they got right from the first round. No bite. So we've got coming up then.
You've got. Got some words on there. Kirby's dream course. I mean, I'm happy with that because I'd like to get that out.
If that gets knocked out straight away, then I'm happy then. Yeah. We're almost hoping that, you know, Street Fighter Metroid, someone strong just turns up in his next pick. It was tense, ladies and gentlemen.
And it is Street Fighter II turbo. It is Street Fighter II turbo. Well, I've got a blessed of Kirby's fucking dream course. That's going to be a pretty fucking easy fucking first round.
Yeah. And that's nice. You know, I'm happy with that. Yeah.
I'll take that. We won't. No, because if Street Fighter goes on the win, at least it's done the right way. It's gone from right to round one.
Didn't need a bite. No. I just hope it don't be Mario. It's going to be, if it gets there, it'll happen to be Mario.
Yeah. If this is Mario, no, no. Yeah. Yeah.
If it's Mario, no. It's, oh, yeah. Yeah. That's not good.
So this is, so this is, yes, this is for the winner, the winner of the Kirby dream course versus Street Fighter II turbo match up goes against this in the second round. Second round. So this could be a bit of a, oh, Final Fantasy III. Take that.
No, we did. Yeah. That's fair enough. Final Fantasy straight to the second round.
So the next pick is another second round pick. So are we looking at now? We have Donkey Kong Country. Oh, strong contender.
That could go to this and it's Donkey Kong. That's nice. I have Donkey Kong up against Street Fighter if they both get free with it. They would meet in the semi-finals.
Oh, so yeah. I'm like, yeah. Something to look forward to. It's inconclusive there, is it?
We're not finished if I can start off. Yeah. So this is who is against Donkey Kong Country. It's going to be against Super Ghouls and Ghosts.
Well, fuck me. Sorry, it's all you goals and goals. I mean, this is kind of what we wanted, I guess, in my eyes, because then we know we did knock a couple of our early guys. I don't want to spoil anyone, but I mean, we don't know if things could change, but Donkey Kong against Super Ghouls and Ghosts.
It's going to be, oh, it's for Ghouls and Ghosts. That's all I'm saying. So this next pick is for another first round pick. So no buy for this game.
And that's the Super Mario RPG. So it's picked up in a harsh position for it. It's not really, you could have done with a bike, isn't it? You really could have done with a bike.
But that's just out of way, if I can land lines, you can't can't take anything back now. Up against the Super Mario RPG. So we're putting that one out. Super Metroid.
Super Metroid. It would definitely take that. That does mean that you don't know. Metroid and Street Fighter could be making their way to the semi-finals, isn't it?
Yeah. They're not, only one can make it to the final. But, you know, we put out Mario Kart now, it's all game over and again. Don't know, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I spoke, this is crazy, because, well, I don't even think we thought about this. Like, normally, you'd see a world cup, you'd see certain ones that they wouldn't kind of hit each other on the way through. This one side could have been full of all the shit games. You're fighting the fight on the fucking game, don't you?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Fuck yeah.
So, we've got to come Street Fighter and Metroid on one side, though. So, depending on what... Oh, god. No, what is it?
Super Mario Kart. So, the Super Mario Kart has a buy on side edge. Shit against Metroid. Oh, shit.
So, that's quite sad, really. But we'll see, you know, we'll see. We'll see. We'll see.
Racket A. Castlevania versus Earthbound. Then you've got Kirby's Dream Course against Street Fighter 2 Turbo. Final Fantasy 3 is playing the winner of either of those two.
That's, you know, they've got a buy. Then we've got Donkey Kong Country against Super Gores and Ghosts. Then we've got Mario, RPG against Super Metroid. And the winner of that goes on to play Mario Kart.
What a fucking... So, what we think of that? I mean, that's some good... I guess it's kind of nice that we've got someone who's early battles, but it's going to be some tough ones coming up.
It's a bit of a shame that Mario Kart and Metroid have to meet straight away. But it's going to be... It can be out of it, it's always going to happen. That's the thing, yeah.
Yeah. And also, Donkey Kongs on that side as well. Yeah. So, yeah.
That is a tough one. I mean, personally, I'm looking at it and going like, Street Fighter's probably going to make it to the quarterfinals. You know what I mean? Just with that part of the draw.
Yeah, I think you can say... This part of the draw with those three heavy-hitting games, two in particular. But I suppose that's how it goes, mate. That's how it goes.
You know, this is live live. This is just drawn out of a hat. I mean, everything's good battles coming up. So, I mean, that's one thing to look forward to.
Yep. So, we may as well move on, mate. We'll move on, mate. Side B.
Side B. Do you want to do the honors, mate? You want to go in there first? We'll be getting there for a rushing around.
We have got... Oh, the old Zelda. The old Zelda. The old...
So, I see who's able to up against. Yeah. Again, straight into the second round. Against Zelda.
It's contrary. So, I think we know the winner there. So, here we've got the first round. And we have got, if you can get it open, Kirby Superstars.
Well... So, first round, Kirby is up against. He's written as well open. But we'll get there.
Well, Kirby's going to be... Eat himself. Because he's up against Yoshi's Island. Oh, is he?
Yeah. Got the battle leet. Battle leet is mated. So, the winner of that, so the winner of either the Ozzie's going against Super Punch Out.
Nice. Yeah. I like that. I like that.
Okay. So, straight into the second round with this next versus battle. And we have Starfox. Oh, Starfox.
And I think he needed a... He needed a buy-in. He needed a second round really. That was a mouth.
Yeah, he did. Well, it took me matter. Because up against Starfox, he's super marriable. So...
Goodbye Starfox. It's nice. It's nice. He got through straight away to the second round.
But... Yeah, at least he can say you got the second round. Yeah. There's a pretty strong heavy coming there, soon.
Okay. So, another first round pick. Mega Man X. Ooh, nice one.
And then up against Mega Man. We've got... Oh, mana. He'll see you go to mana.
That's a... That's a good match-up. That's a good match-up. I mean, I think that's a clear winner, but there's...
Yeah, sad. Sad that there is a clear winner. But every night there's a lot to discuss there, though. And so round things off.
A buy into the second round. One of the greatest races of all time. F0. Dark Horse.
Yeah, that will be a Dark Horse. But he is on the same side as Mario. So Captain Falcon could be getting Falcon Punch. Poon!
So I just run through Bracket B on the other side. So it's Zelda, Link to the Past versus Contra 3. We've got Kirby, Superstar, versus Josh's Island. The winner of that will go on to play Super Punch-out.
We've got Starfox versus Super Mario World. We've got Mega Man X versus Secret Mana. Winner of that goes on to fight F0. Again, there's going to be some good fights there, though.
Some good versus. Some really good versus. Obviously Super Mario World being in there. I would say that could possibly be the strongest bracket down there, mate, with F0, Secret Mana, Mega Man X, Super Mario World, and Starfox.
You know, he's unfortunate to be in that situation. Yeah, I mean, he's got a name. He does have a name. He's got a name for the game.
If he was up against Contra, he might get through. Yeah, I mean, I'd still work for Contra. Starfox. I've got two games here.
You're counting that one. Yeah, you're counting that one. Kirby's came out at a time, mate. We can't just stick someone who's only came out for this.
It's not fair. So it's a strong, strong fight. So yeah, some really good battles. Some that were disappointing to see, but they land.
Some I was happy where they pulled out. So you can't, I mean, you can't fucking complain, mate. That's how it's going to work. That's how it's going to work.
Yeah, we just off the cuff here. Maybe per episode, we might be able to hit a couple of verses battles out on each one. We'll see. We do want to piece, but there might be a couple that's so obvious that you might be able to hash out, too.
Maybe the big box office attractions. We might have to be one episode. Yeah, definitely a couple on edit. We can fucking, I mean, it's clear.
Straight from the start, you know, he's fucking pulling off. But we're going through all the fucking details, mate. We'll discuss them. Yeah, exactly.
So yeah, if you can just stay tuned with us. We'll try and get them done as quick as we can, get through to the finals and see who is the greatest game. Great. It's a mini fucking game.
It's a mini game. It's a mini game. There's obviously other things to this game. But yeah, the greatest, next mini game out there.
I'm looking forward to this, mate. It's a, it's a, it's a, we've all got a fucking, we've all got a fucking, we've all got a fucking, I think everybody's got a favourite there. So, and you know, there's some powerful, powerful games in there that, you know, you're looking at Super Mario World, but he is, the good thing about Super Mario World being in that bracket, mate, is he's up against some of the, some of the really, you know, like a Mega Man, like Super Mario F-Zero. Even yeah.
Yeah. You know, Falcon ain't going to go down that fight. Because we, you know, I suppose we've got to really kind of sort out the parameters and we'll get that done. You know, we were talking about graphics, gameplay, music.
Yeah. You know, if, we'll be giving kind of green lights, you know, the who wins the music, who wins in graphics. Yeah, we run it through. F-Zero, you know, gameplay and music alone, mate.
He's, he's doing pretty well, you know. And, and they invented that shit, didn't they? That turned around corner shit. That's a graphics for moving round and stuff.
Think they invented that kind of system. Yeah, I'm coming out, I had a name for it, but they, they invented that for F-Zero. Yeah, we did, we did some research for it. I know, I know what it's really they did, but I can't fucking articulate now, but for the S-Zero round, I will look up and they definitely invented, there's some sort of chip or something in it.
It just makes it able to twist the screen but have your fucking car in the middle. Shit, no, no, no, me. Yeah. But if we're looking to it, that's a lot of stuff that's coming up, ladies and gentlemen.
Nice. Yeah. Actual, real life, actual facts about things. Actual, actual facts, yes.
Actual, actual facts about the actual, real games, actual mini games. Yeah. So yeah, there you go. That was just, just a bracket draw, just a bracket draw for this.
Introduction to what's going to be coming. Yeah. Coming to it for 2024. Exactly.
The tournament at 2024, mean, the Turbo Tournament, the versus about Turbo Tournament. Do you want me to talk about one? Yeah, so just stay tuned. And we'll just, we'll keep you updated.
