hey which Nintendo console is the best one of all time and what movie franchise just needs to go to sleep and stop bothering us go away forever well hey what's going on everyone welcome to another fantastic addition of nope sorry the debate show where I Jeff Bakalar argue with my friends and colleagues and sworn enemies over three rounds of dead serious discourse joining me today a former friend mr. Nick Henry how's it going yeah we already ended our friendship before this episode right so we have nothing to lose all right here's how the game works Nick and I will debate over three rounds and we will be assigned points based on how well we made our argument assigning those points today thank you for coming back Abby Russell is here thank you so much for having me it's exciting to finally be the one to wield the power here it is don't let it get to your head No - wait okay it's gone straight to her head we are the victims in this episode Abby what is the topic for round one well as we all know Nintendo has come out with many amazing consoles right but there can only be one best what's the tippy tippy top of the best Nintendo consoles you have 90 seconds on the clock starting now okay it's obviously the Super NES or thus Ness for short this was a generation defining console it brought us Super Mario World the best of the Mario's we all know this to be a true fact of no arguing that Link to the Past Donkey Kong Country Super Mario Kart can you name a more influential game changing title in the history of games you cannot this this brought couch co-op to the forefront Mario Paint was a game changer it was but they was it was the most defining console of our young generation everybody most people - okay guys were just gonna cut sell you you're in the video game industry and you can use fancy words like couch co-op whatever the hell that means but I'm gonna pick the Nintendo 64 because it will always have my heart it was weird it was fun had all those wacky controllers that came in different colors as well as the console and people saw their like how the hell do I hold this thing well you know what Jeff they figured it out and not only did those controllers work they worked well and they had all these insanely fun multiplayer games up to four players we had Super Smash Brothers cool tonight Mario Kart 64 my parents played Mario Kart 64 with me did they play any other games hell no and you know even even ripoffs like Diddy Kong Racing we're fun as hell they had freaking planes hovercrafts you know I'll never be an n64 classic there's a reason there's an SNES class just to your point real quick zelda ocarina of time super mario 64 those are up there in the in the all-time bonus all right well only one person can decide our fate for this round Abby Russell what's a yeah it feels good I just want to relish in the power for it much just soak it in anyway I think both excellent points across the board Jeff a lot of great points but a lot of just talked about how the you know the library of the SNES is great still very strong but I will give you two points for that and then you Nick of course you talk about the versatility of the n64 the fun colors and your parents are into it my parents also played it so three points for me for the Nintendo 64 it's not my fault my parents aren't 40 years old but it is your fault that you only talked about the game library oh yeah because there's nothing else important it okay fine I'm not gonna argue with the judge that got me in hot water last time I know that Nick's gonna go first this next round Abby what's the topic well as we all know movies are coming out left and right and there are tons of franchises nobody ever makes originals anymore am i right fellas you're right even this isn't an original right so what is the most tire to film franchise out there once again you got 90 seconds on the clock here we go alright I'm gonna get a lot of heat from this one maybe even from our in-house producer Brian but I got it I got to say Star Wars okay I grew up you know being a fan of all the originals including returning the Jedi because Ewoks get too much hate they're mad cute and they have really sweet houses but in the mid-90s I don't know if you remember this but they remastered the originals and they just added these horrible like ps1 graphics there and that should have been the first warning sign that all Star Wars is is a gigantic money grab and then after that then came the pot racing trilogy and as well have been the pod racing trilogy because we got to see badass Darth Vader as a little ding bat kid and a brooding teenager I don't want that get that out of here now there's a new movie or a TV show or a Taco Bell advertising collab every other week they might as well be Pokemon Thank You Star Wars thank you for what you created but I'm ready to move on and just see some more original ideas tough act to follow I agree with you on pretty much every level there I'm gonna say just straight-up like Avengers now maybe more the marvel at large but like there came a point when all these Avengers movies were coming out where I was just like I don't even know which one I'm supposed to see next you should never have to do homework to ensure that you're going to enjoy the film you're going to watch it's ridiculous it's confusing what do we got a play catch up I got to read all these guides on which movies to what what the hell's going on it's fucking billions and billions of dollars it's the same money grab situation of Star Wars let me live maybe just wait three years to release an Avengers movie I feel like I'm bombarded just stop already it is it's exhausting move oh that was exhausting boom that is exhausting I will say both of you excellent job excellent reporting on both these very tired franchise enough already but I think Avengers as you well put you got to do a bunch of research to even understand what's going on it's crazy our war is they're easy to follow you know you don't got to do anything you just hop right in but Avengers whoo boy I don't even know what's going on I don't know anyone's names and that's why you win with three points Jeff and you are slowly behind with two like Josh Brolin is like different characters and different I don't understand yeah it's weird and there are like five different Chris's and all of them there's a ton of Chris I'm also pretty good looking there's too many Chris's alright five to five round three gonna decide it's the rubber match is that what it's is that the right use of that term I don't know these hockey terms that's a baseball thing oh it's a bit I like baseball oh great I'm glad I got your attention new word new word round three a B here we go ah yes so it is wintertime the peak of winter right now and there are some favorite winter sports not hockey unfortunately but Mountain Sports we got thing four one one thing for both feet or one thing for each foot which winds skiing or snowboarding 90 seconds on the clock take her away okay obviously skiers are the better people everyone knows that my god snowboard is driving me crazy or carving up the mountain you're pushing snow to the side so all the ice comes up nobody wants to go down the mountain if there you've been on it because it's a ridiculous thing I got a freaking go down like some sort of rocket power scared it's enough stop carving up the mountain you can't even get up the ski lifts you're bunching up is the board's hanging from one foot you look goddamn ridiculous you're hopping along like some sort of bunny rabbit in the ski queue come on get out of here nobody wants your junk and and when you guys fall it is who knows what's gonna happen people could die lives can be ruined when a skier falls the skis detach you fall off to the side it's not from what is some skis what the catcher thinks when the snow killer Falls that's it could be it so good luck rolling the dice every time you're skee-ball right let me start this your plane right in my hand snowboarding is for the people skiing is for the 1% when you think of a skier you just picture this old guy who just like ballet there's Mercedes G wagon the whole day just been scoffing at other people that get too close to him there's like oh yeah and then I'm like mister skier dude relax you got sleds JEP to your feet you're going down a mountain this should be fun and he just looks at me and goes you're standing on my ski and they're probably the reason for you know really expensive snowboarding Johnny tsunami was a snowboarder and let's face it skis are the rollerblading of snow and everyone knows that rollerblading is not cool good luck on a flat area mister snowboarder I'm not letting you tag along and hitchhike on my Pole okay as if snowboarders don't pay for going on the mountain he's going over the time you're right but this is fine I like I like a little spice those waffles she likes spice Abby skiers don't like suicide this episode please I have to say this was a close one really neck-and-neck I'm kind of going back and forth on that final point there's really gonna work there's nothing there it's enough anyway I think you both made excellent points I wish you argued more in the favor of your own thing versus just against the other thing it's hard to do in scale it's just like you know a friendlier debate I guess person sure I think you made some excellent points about how skiing they attach to your feet they fall off that seems like a safety thing sure I don't I haven't really done either snowboarding you've ruined a mountain okay I appreciate that and then snowboarding I was way onboard you have a lot of fun voices which I liked you talk about a fun character which I liked what I didn't like is you bashed rollerblading and rollerblades Kulish so you lost the point on that one Jeff gets three tickets too if he didn't say about rollerblading get 101 I use my eraser because of that robic and kulish I guess rollerblading is kind of cool but but skiing is not cool it is this is Trail and it is for the 1% rich people ski feeling ski lifts in like getting up there yeah where'd you get that snowboarder guy where'd you get that snowboard and the helmet hmm wasn't free alright over yet it's over I won 8 to 7 this is not over you and me oh I'll be back dude I gotta take a breather here thank you so much for somehow refereeing that very highly contested match their excellent judging thank you so very much McHenry I'll shake your hand but it's only a formality because I don't buy into any of this I'm the winner what did I win ooh a flip oh that's a good price guess what I'm gonna need it on the mountain with my bougie ass all right thank you so much to everybody involved in oh sorry I appreciate it if you want to suggest a topic to debate for next time do so in the comment section below I guess I won't be seeing you on the mountain after all there Nick nope we'll take separate ski lifts all the way up I'll just peer into your back when we're going ups now you can just hop along like the cool guy you look like thanks for watching we'll see you next time
