Wow, at about 21:18 on the video raocow sounds more livid for a moment that I can ever remember hearing him.

"Let me get control back you monster."

It had the tone of a parent that just lost their last ounce of patience with a misbehaving kid. XD

Youtube's auto-captioner is magical sometimes.



Is Erawan the Snow Cow part of the greater raocow universe? Maybe he's Joey's cousin?

The music from the Ghost House level today is giving me major flashbacks to a classic raocow moment.

Where does the remix bgm for the Koopalapolis stage originate? I know I've heard it in other hacks raocow has played but I can't remember which.

Apparently the music from the first level today, with the built-in birds singing, is from Quartz Quadrant in Sonic CD, but only in the JP/PAL release.

Haha wow, I usually watch raocow's morning video on my lunch break, but I couldn't quite fit this one in!

Oh hey I didn't know Spore Spawn visited the Northern Kremisphere from Planet Zebes.

I always thought the DKC3 underwater theme was reminiscent of Carol of the Bells, honestly, which is not even the most Christmas-y thing about this game! (the aforementioned MERRY code)

So in this episode Sephiroth obtained the Black Materia and has summoned Meteor to rule the world!

The story has just taken a sharp left turn at Bonkersville, I love it. This game better have a scene with Princess Peach being tragically killed by Bowser or else what's the point?

Did anyone else mishear raocow at the start of today's video or is it just me and my filthy mind?

The sound most Kremlings make when defeated during chipmunk mode is something I find far funnier than I really should.

Does anyone know what the BGM was for the Dark Mario fight? Because the opening kind of sounds like the final battle theme from Thousand Year Door, but the rest of it sounds so tortured filtered through the Mario 64 soundfont I really can't say for certain.

Gosh the music for the last stage today was driving me nuts because I knew I knew it.

Turns out it's the Velvet Room theme from the Persona games.

It's so weird the Dragon Quest 5 level went on to use Final Fantasy 5 music during the mountain segment, even though the backdrop was from Dragon Quest 5 as well. Maybe there was no BGM in DQ5 that really fit a platformer? The whole Nera/Bianca thing is kind of a meme in Japan, I think. I've seen it...

Looks like a proper keyhole effect was lua'd up for SMBX at some point. Awesome.

(I need to actually catch up with new SMBX developments, I'm so behind the times)

And that's the story of how Wario became roommates with the Giant Spearman.

I'm mostly disappointed raocow missed the obvious Owl Control pun when he fumbled with 'Shovel Control'. He clearly should have said 'Trowel Control'.

This branch is my favorite of the alternates, both it and Waluigi's Mansion Uncanny Manor are the most unique, but I think there's more cleverness in the design of the stages of this chapter than the Manor, which was mostly 'LOL Zombie'd'. Though maybe it can get a bit too clever, I wonder how much ...

Today Wario fights the ghost of Buff-Arms Waluigi in his dreams.

I'm sure if you psychoanalyzed that it would say something about him but I'm just not sure what.

Oh raocow, you were right there. The different-looking conveyor belt that you thought wasn't affected by the switch was. It's just that you hit the switch twice before checking it again, so it was going back in its original direction. Don't feel too bad though, because (post-game spoiler) you have t...

Oh hey raocow started LPing my favorite entry in the Wario series while I was on vacation! Don't worry, raocow, you'll get the ability to return to stages eventually. And the game will helpfully tell you from the level select whether you got a thing in the level or not. So just play as you normally ...

Whew, it's a good thing raocow went ahead and found that narrow pit to the treasure and didn't backtrack to the start of the stage for that garlic pot, he would've found he couldn't butt-stomp that block anyway because it's right under a ladder. Holding down to stomp would've made Wario grab the lad...

Back when I said there was a particular stage I used to use to grind for coins to get the best ending, it's this one. The first stage in this video. I got pretty good at running through the stage quickly, getting 30 coins from each bird, and grabbing as many incidental coins along the way. And I did...

Man, wouldn't you know it? After raocow finishes his LP of this game a hack is completed which colorizes it like a Gameboy Color game! If only this came out a month earlier, darn the luck!

I never used gambling to get money, I grinded coins out by replaying a particular level like a dope. You might think it was Course 06, shown at the end of today's video, but you'd be wrong. There's a better level for coins later on. Oh and Wario's default hat is a Safari Hat. Which is kind of a weir...
