Big news as Brandon came through HUGE for the show when he found the original recording of the intro we used and that really put it all together and it feels like the show is officially back!!
During this show the concept came up to put in NES commercials and such so at times you will hear me going to break, unfortunately I missed one in post-editing so you hear me go to break and then come back immmediately! Oh well.
The Matchup: (1) TMNT (Original) vs (8) Major League Baseball

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was something that took over everything as we grew up. The song "TMNT" by the Neskimos took this game's various themes and did right by them by producing a song which took you through the various stages, and then hit you with the heavy stuff right when you needed it. This matchup was really no contest at all, the game Major League Baseball was abysmal in gameplay and the only noteable thing about it was the fact that it carried the official lisencee seal of Major League Baseball.

Song 2:
Metal Gear's failure to provide english translations explain the title of this song: "Uh Oh! The Beat Have Started to Move" by Khalal, Nintendo Guru. In the original Metal Gear game the phrase is "The truck have started to move". This complex game from Ultra (TMNT being the 1st) was trashed by Kojima as "complete garbage".

That leaves us with Dr. Mario and after slight difficulties with the audio and some bad editing we finally get to the excellent remix of Dr. Mario entitled "Burning Up" by Dj Redlight. The battle between these two was decided by our first caller this season, but not a new personality to the 8bit Extravaganza, Mets!, who goes Dr. Mario based on the fact that the Nintendo creation had better music. With Mets pushing Dr. Mario through to the final four, he informs us that he's got a Subway sandwich, some chocolate cookies, and a big bottle of ginger ale!

Super Mario Bros 2 has some great music, and with a remix of the underground theme is McVaffe with "Underground Riddims".

Doing battle with this classic game is the number sixth seed Jackal, which personally was one of the great multiplayer games on the NES system. The game was under the radar of the mainstream for the most part, with other titles taking the gaming community by storm. Jackal was created by modified Double Dribble code, and then adapted for the NES with the Jeep rescuing the POWs. Taking the original soundtrack of Jackal we have another OCRemix title with "Mounted-Machine Gun Funk" by Beatdrop.

Song 6:
Double Dragon II is such a classic game that I will be shocked if it doesn't win this bracket. The remix we have is courtesy of Sixto Sounds with "Twin Blood". Donkey Kong's impact was discussed however Double Dragon II: The Revenge was a number 2 seed for a reason.

Show ended with the playing of "Dr. Mario" by Vominitron. Another band who's rock versions of Nintendo songs are basically orgasmic. This was a masterpiece.

With that the show aired on Kutztown University Radio on 88.3 FM, 1670 AM, Service Electric Cable Channel 24, Hometown Utilicom Cable Channel 44.
