NEW VIDEO!! The Pokemon Mini: Secrets of Nintendo's Smallest Console | Punching Weight [SSFF]
Added 2021-06-29 02:55:16 +0000 UTC
Hey Skelefriends!
It's Grace here, with a new Punching Weight! It's over 100°F (37°C) in Seattle at the moment, so forgive me if I write like I have a bit of the heat brain. I've actually been working on this video since March, so it's such a joy to finally get it over the finish line. Like Derek says in the video, I'm so grateful to all the people at Pokemon-mini.net for helping us with their knowledge and their hardware.
Right now Derek is wrapping up his love letter to Resident Evil 8, a breakdown of the Beneviento section. It's shaping up to be a fun change of pace from everything else we've been working on lately.
Anyways, I'm going to go take a cold shower! Hope you like the video :)

Wow! As someone who was definitely an active gamer during this time and considers himself pretty knowledgeable about Nintendo history, this is something I'd somehow never heard about before or somehow completely forgot about! I thought this was just going to be about the Pocket Pikachu and was amazed to learn about a whole-ass console I'd never seen before! Great video and can't wait to look up more about this thing!

Absolutely loved the recurring warning gags, good stuff.
As for Doom, I'm no tech-head, but there is a version out there for the TI-83 Plus that could be a good starting point.

Yeah more of a question if anyone had 5 other friends with Mini's, because logistically it's about as seamless as IR technology could've been back than

6 player multiplayer? I wonder how many people actually managed to be to do that back in 2001.

Really loved the video. ^_^ Hope to collect for the Pokémon Mini myself someday, since I'm a huge fan of the series & was raised on them with FireRed & LeafGreen being my very first video games back in 2004. And maybe I'll get my hands on the Pokémon Pikachu as well, along with the GS model, someday.
