What is it about handhelds in the 90s being named after water fowl?

    I want the "matt talks about Kamen Rider for 8 uninterrupted minutes" cut
  • @EricM-Prime
    I can't be the only one who wants that 8 minutes of Kamen Rider, right?
  • Matt knowing about Kamen Rider ExAid gives this episode so many bonus points
  • @eldaritch

  • celebrating today bc I finally got them to talk about Kamen Rider on This Is :D!
  • @iMoevious
    I need video of Matt talks about Kamen Rider for 8 uninterrupted minutes
  • Kenzi and Matt slowly shoving kamen rider bits into this show is smthing I never thought would happen, but I'm glad it's here
  • @Fr3ud
    Love when Kyle comes thru with the facts bro
  • @asdfrozen
    IMO the main (and possibly only) notable thing about the WonderSwan is that it was created by the same person who created the Game Boy, Gunpei Yokoi.
  • My brother had the Turbo Express (with TV tuner) when we were young....I was low key jealous. That thing was super cool!
  • @Antarsan
    I need those 8 minutes of Matt talking about Ex-Aid, where do I send money?
  • I remember seeing this when I was young! I remember that anything with button layouts that werent conventional were cool and thought this thing was pretty awesome! Never got a Cybiko though
  • @jordangulfin
    I’m sure it’s been said many times, but I just want to thank This Is for throwing the THPS character select screen music into rotation. It’s a good vibe 🤙🏾
  • @DarrelDelfin
    Damn, I can't believe Austin didn't care about the Kamen Rider lore drop. Disappointed. Massive L. 😔 Matt though, is an absolute king for that. Massive W. 💪🏽
  • @ThatuanGai
    My favorite part of this video were the subtitles. Matt had his name every time but Austin was "Man With Glasses". Glorious.
  • @Chrish1981
    Freedom units is now the official currency lol awesome
  • Did you guys cover the Sega nomad? My brother had that, and it was basically the same idea as the turbo Express, which we never had but had the turbo grafix 16, also had the game gear with TV tuner lol

    Does anyone remember Skannerz, it was like a monster fighting one hander like digimon digivice or Pocket Pikachu, the gimmick was it had in IR scanner where you went around scanning the upc codes and fight evil monsters and turn ‘em friendly and then add them onto your pocket monster team, the premise of this was there were different colors and shapes of scanners all corresponding to different alien factions and you could fight your team against your friends by scanning each other’s IR blaster. This was back in the days of the gameboy color so it had a tiny 2 inch screen and obviously no wifi, but I enjoyed it, it would be fun to see that come back on something like the switch, or I guess Pokémon Go was pretty close to it idk I never got on that train.
