It's our oldest game yet, NES launch title Excitebike. Is a simple game about trying to beat the fastest times on a number of similar dirt bike tracks enough to hold the interest of our Podcasting heroes? Or will they just talk about a bunch of other stuff instead? Find out!

(1:06) We havn't recorded an episode in over three weeks! This leads to an extra long what we've been playing segment.
(2:00) Zach babbles about... something? You should totally side with either Zach or Tyler in the comments at Lasttimeonvideogames.com.
(3:40) Tyler's gamer confession and spoilers for Final Fantasy III/VI.
(5:30) Then we add on with spoilers about Professor Layton and the Unwound Future.
(8:00) We talk a bit about esports, if watching some pro League of Legends appeals to you, here's the first game of the All Star Game.
(16:45) Simple and casual games. What makes a game simple? Why do we play them?
(25:40) Simple games as related to abnegation. Also we define abnegation.
(28:30) My exciting Excitebike story. Also the WiiU is really exciting. This leads to a discussion about the upcoming console generation, and us bitching about the Xbox One like everyone else.
(32:00) We finally talk about Excitebike! It only took 2/3 of the podcast.
(35:00) We mention Excitebike's sweet victory theme. We also talk about what could have made this game better, mostly things that later racing games came up with.
(37:00) The wonderful time we live in, with all sorts of cheap videogames and how great games aren't as valuable as they used to be... basically we just complain about how awesome the time we live in is.
Next week, we return to the pretty but flighty console known as the Sega Genesis to play Comix Zone. Same Videogames time, same videogames channel.
