Hello Skele-Friends!
More slice-of-life podcasting goodness for your favorite Skeleton Duo. In this episode we promise we keep the N-Gage discussion to a minimum, and also discus the Kinect, the New Super Switch Pro 2 XL, and Metroid. No plant updates from Producer Grace but we did have a wonderful interruption from our maintenance people, who decided to fix a broken cabinet in the middle of recording. Excitement! Plus what dumb thing scared you as a kid?
As always podcast questio...

Hi everyone!
So this is a pretty unusual video for the, but y'all know we can't resist the dogged defenders of our planet: the EDF! The EDF folks asked us to play this game and show off our opinions on it, and gosh darnit, we did. Also Mr. Matt McMuscles was kind enough to play it with me.
There will be no charges for this post, but I thought y'all might like to see it earlier than the folks on YouTube. Enjoy!
Thanks,

It's the first Monday of the month which means it's time for a dumb 'ol podcast! Be in the podcast chat room in the discord at 4pm PT to chat live with Derek and Grace. We promise we won't spend another episode talking about the N-gage. In fact, I'm excited to finally talk about something else!

Hey hey hey! It's PORTS. Ok, I gotta come clean. The dirty secret about this video is that its script originally featured SEVEN game sections vs the 4-5 that actually made it into the video. I HATED CUTTING THEM. But there ended up being enough to talk about with this slot of games that I had to push them aside for another video (since the Past Mortem had already ballooned to massive proportions). When we first started this N-Gage journey, I told Derek we only had enough material to do one N-...

Welcome to 30+ minutes of Nokia madness. Y'all voted for it, and it's here. Let us know what you think! Feedback super welcomed.
This is the return of Past Mortem and the breakdown of how the Nokia N-Gage went wrong. WOW this was a doozy! It's been a long time since the last Past Mortem, so I feel like our training wheels spun off a bit. This took us a LONG time to make, with tons of research and testing and ...

We got a barn burner today! This entire podcast is dedicated to Resident Evil 8 Village. And to help with this dissection, I brought on one of my favorite human beings, horror animator & filmmaker Luke Green aka Clockwork Pixel. You know Luke, even if you don't realize it - he is responsible for all the bumpers and logos for the channel, he's been our "third skele...

Hey Skele-fam!
Producer Grace has returned for podcasting once again! And she's back to talk DVD Remotes, weird Sonic ports, and of course, the thing that has consumed our lives for MONTHS, the Nokia N-Gage (specifically why there haven't been any Past Mortems in a such a long time) . And most important - Grace's plant update!
Also, we forgot to mention on the Podcast that May 1st marked the 6 year anniversary of the SSFF Patreon. SSFF existed before the Patreon launched but May 1...

Hi guys, Grace here!
This video marks the first of our Ngage bonanza! We’re hoping (*finally*) to make the Ngage Past Mortem our next video! 😚
BUT, before we get to all that, I’m SO happy we finally got to make this video! I feel like we have been sitting on this port of iPod Sonic for ages. Y’know, it actually put me down a weird rabbit hole: there was actually only about 54 games on the iPod. This was all pre App Store, and it looks like Apple only worked with a few s...

Hello Skella-Friends!
This episode is a little different because Producer Grace was unable to make it to the recording. But as luck would have it, we were able to get our good friend Matt McMuscles to fill in for her. Also lucky, Sony announced they were NOT shutting down the PS3 and Vita online stores literally hours before we started recording! So digital storefronts and the importance of games preservation take up the bulk of the discussion. Then it's big talk on the RE8 demo and of ...

Hello Friends,
This might be the dumbest video we’ve ever made.
I’ll try to explain. Recently I fell down a weird rabbit hole. Now, rabbit holes are kinda what we do on the regular around here but this one I fell down - the Playstation 2 Remote!
It’s a working controller on a DVD remote!
And does it work with games? YES!!
How many games?? A LOT!!
AND THERES MORE THAN ONE!
This is a topic I’ve not seen anyone else ever cover, seemed l...

Hello Skele-friends!
Got a brand new episode of the podcast for ya'll! Nokia N-Gages, Pokemon Minis, and PS2 DVD Remotes have taken over our lives. They've proven to be rabbit holes far deeper than we ever could've known. But it is our duty to the public to report on these subjects! A little taste of SSFF videos to come, plus the random nonsense and tangents you've come to expect from Derek n Grace.
And if have any questions for the next episode send them to stopskeltons@gmail.com...

Hi everybody! Grace here.
This is one of those videos that got more bewildering as time went on– why weren't MORE games on the DS touch only?? Well besides the usual reasons (your times, your monies, etc). We covered our favorites in this video but there are a few more I'd want to put in a follow-up! At the very least I'm glad I got to flex my The World Ends With You knowledge. I feel like I've been training for this moment my whole life.

Sorry this video is out so late on a Saturday night. We decided to spend a little extra time tinkering on it, and I'm really happy with how it turned out!
Video Game Keyboards! I remember when we started this project I said to Derek, "how much keyboard stuff could there actually be? like 10 minutes worth?" But then I dug in and there ended up being A. LOT. MORE. than I even imagined. Two of the keyboards featured are from supporters, and we're really grateful for ...

Hi guys!
We made a quick update video for the channel to let people know what's going on with us. I'm pretty sure we've talked all of this out in Patreon posts this year, but we wanted to let the folks on the main channel know about it.
There won't be any videos posted on Patreon in January this month (so patrons won't be charged), but we'll be back with more videos in February! We just gotta get this move out of the way and we should be good.
Thanks,
Grace ...
