So since we 1CC'd Splatterhouse in only 15 days... I thought it'd be fun to start ANOTHER quick 15 day 1CC challenge! So starting on Monday 10/20, we'll be revisiting CONTRA the Arcade Game with daily livestreams for 15 days!
I chose Contra because 1) Who wouldn't want to learn how to 1CC Contra? and 2) We've previously cleared the game with 4 credits so it seems reasonable for a short 2 week schedule.
While there won't be any new content over the weekend, if you miss hanging out together, you can watch this compilation of our previous Contra mini-series to get caught up before Monday!
Big thanks to everyone who's supported these 1CC streams by being there live or watching on the replay! Can't wait to Git Gud at Contra!

Thanks for being my Player 2 on this epic journey into the depths of Ghouls 'N Ghosts! I seriously wouldn't have been able to do this without your help & support & encouragement! If you missed it, we streamed the full journey of someone with ZERO GnG experience all the way to a 1CC (1 credit clear) proving a Quarter Pumper CAN Git Gud! Super excited to start our next Livestream series on October 1st. Should be a splattering good time...

I recently went on a field trip. This is what a working Simpsons arcade machine looks like in 2025. For context, this 34 year old cabinet is located directly next to a window in an arcade that's 100' away from the ocean & is open year round (daily during the summer & weekends off season). Even tho it's in rough shape & seen A LOT of playtime, I like to imagine that it has brought hundreds of hours of enjoyment to everyone who has ever dropped in a quarter.

Of all the videos I've ever made, THIS ONE has it all! Tension, Drama, Good Gameplay and a Happy Ending! It caps a journey we've been on since March and I thank everyone who has watched or joined any of these X-Men Livestreams. This one's for you!
