Live stream [archived]: Donkey Kong ’94 (the Game Boy one)
Update: The stream has ended and you can watch the archived version below! Thanks to all who joined in.
Last week's Gintendo trial stream seems to have gone over quite well, so I'm going to try another test flight this evening. Several people didn't like the fact that I had my streaming software set to mute the game audio whenever I spoke, so this time around I'll see how it goes when I adjust the broadcast to keep the game action audible beneath my mutterings.
The game featured this time around will fall into my Game Boy specialty wheel house: Nothing less than Donkey Kong ’94. I've been capturing footage for the Donkey Kong NES retrospective episode of Good Nintentions, and this process has reminded me how danged great the Game Boy remake/sequel/reinvention was. Seriously, it's exceptional. So! I'll spend an hour farting around with it tonight, maybe make some progress, who knows.
The stream will go live at 5:30 p.m. ET (that's 2:30 p.m. PT and Super Gol-danged Late GMT) on my YouTube channel. Or, you know, you could just watch it here.
This is, of course, a Gintendo stream. Tonight's drink will be a gin and tonic made with Cardinal American Dry gin, which is distilled here in North Carolina — like the saying goes, "Think globally, drink locally." Or something like that. And if you enjoy this follow-up test stream and would like to help make it a regular, weekly affair, it's the next funding goal for the Retronauts Video Chronicles campaign. (There's less than $200 to go before I commit myself to streaming once or twice a week.)
