Hello everyone! I am Mr. Eight-Three-One. This channel is honestly a bit of a mess and has gone through a lot of stages, but for the most part it's centered on 90s computer gaming, mostly forgotten children's games. In the flood of partners who do this stuff for profit, I remain one of the few who will strictly do this for fun and non-profit purposes.
Aside from old school gaming, my passion is computing, especially in the vintage area.
Enjoy your stay!

An Attempt at Sonic R (Windows) 2-Player Gameplay
Key word "attempt."
So my best friend was visiting me over this past week and we played a lot of games together during our down time. We both love all sorts of games, good and bad, and for the fun of it one of the bad games we decided to try together was Sonic R. I have never shown any multiplayer on this channel (aside from Candy Land and Chutes and Ladders which I don't really think count), so I also took the opportunity to record some footage of this! This is of us going through all five tracks once over, and doing one game of hunt-the-balloons (which, after watching this, I think you'll quickly find out why we only did it once).
So the reason I worded that title that way was to prevent anyone from expecting expert-level gameplay. My buddy had never played this before, and it's the understatement of the century to say this is not a beginner friendly game (in fact, one experiment I want to try one day is getting four people who have never played this together and making them try it out to see what happens, because I think that'd be hilarious). The track layouts are extremely confusing to someone who has never seen them before, and because so many of the tracks are built more around the fact that they have hidden items to hunt down rather than to be coherent courses, there are tons of pathways that take you way out of the way of the action, and certain ring doors are deceptive because their only purpose is to conceal items rather than open shortcuts.
I don't have too much to say about the tracks themselves. We had a few attempts that went so badly that we agreed to redo them and try again, so there is some editing going on here. The balloon race was utterly ridiculous as we spent almost five straight minutes looking for those last two measly balloons that were hidden in extremely obscure places (naturally, I sped up most of the searching because I know nobody wants to just watch five straight minutes of nothing happening). Otherwise I think all went fairly well.
There are plenty of videos that cover the single-player content of this game, but naturally much fewer that cover multiplayer, and despite how often we flubbed our gameplay on both accounts, we had a ball playing this together. It was cooler to let him do it on one of my old computers (a Pentium 3), as he had never really used one before. Both of us used Microsoft Sidewinder pads for this video. Maybe I'll be able to recruit more people for multiplayer in the future, who knows. For now, I hope you enjoy this video!

I'll take "Clever Description One-Liners" for 800, Alex. It's been a while, hasn't it? When we last saw Jeopardy! on this channel, Alex Trebek had only recently passed away. In looking up videos though, I had trouble finding any uncommentated footage of this one, so here we are. Plus, I already did Wheel of Fortune's counterpart version of this game, so it seems appropriate. This is Artech Stud...
Mario's Game Gallery/FUNdamentals (Windows) Gameplay
zhlédnutí 27KPřed 2 lety
Also known as how to get sick of Mario's voice in no time flat. So, this game actually has seen footage uploaded of it on a multitude of occasions, but every video I've seen is of the DOS version. There was an enhanced Windows (and presumably Macintosh) port that features a higher resolution and better visual detail, and I decided I would go ahead and fill that void, so here we are! There isn't...
Precision Skateboarding "Walkthrough"

That is to say, can one ever truly fully complete a game as phenomenal as this? Welcome to Precision Skateboarding, a very obscure and forgotten skateboarding game. That is truly a shame, because there is absolutely nothing that compares to how beautiful this is. Anybody who was gushing over Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 2 has clearly never experienced this. To be fair, this game doesn't have a whol...

NOTE: There is an editing error in this video where some text comes up about four seconds later than it's supposed to. My bad. Sorry about that.

It's not properly showcased in most videos in its raw ...

Not only did Mario go missing, so did all of the game's artistic direction. (Just a heads up I had to record audio and video seperately for this walkthrough, so if the audio sync seems off at certain places, my apologies about it I did the best I could and I think I came quite close in every case but hopefully it's not too big a problem) One of the weirdest things to ever come out of the Mario ...

Is there a way to convince people that you haven't sold yourself out after uploading a video like this? So, actually I originally intended this to be part of the video I uploaded yesterday, but didn't realize how elaborate it was so the decision was made to make it separate. This is a little catalog demonstration of The Learning Company's product lineup from around that time, included with vari...
Reader Rabbit 1 Deluxe (Macintosh) Gameplay

I bet you're only reading this to see what Reader Rabbit 1-liner I came up with. A remake of the very first Reader Rabbit game ever released, this is a game that's already been recorded on multiple occasions but I thought I'd go ahead and do a video on it myself just for fun. This is also of the lesser-seen Macintosh version, though it's mostly identical to the Windows one. This is a pretty bas...
Forever Growing Garden Gameplay

Because "Occasionally Growing Garden" just wasn't snappy enough. This game was hiding deep beneath the recesses of my memory. I had it as a kid and vaguely remember liking it, until I ended up snapping the disc in half because of me being dumb and bored. This is a children's game centered on, shocker, gardens. You pick one of three gardens to grow things in, pick your seeds, plant and water the...

The only game where you can be a doctor and still only make minimum wage. (If you want to just see the enhanced mode straight away, skip to 59:39) The late 90s computer adaptation of the classic board game! You have probably played this game at least once, and I'm sure you all know the premise you traverse down a one-way board starting either at college or with a career straight away, and go th...

There are a million ways to play this game, and it somehow still can't be made good. That's right, it's Westwood's 1995 computer game adaptation of the (in)famous board game. Just for the record, that one-liner was a quip about the base game this computer game is actually a very valiant effort and sometimes considered the best adaptation due to its personality and heavy level of customizability...

In memory of Alex Trebek: 1940-2020 My apologies about the super long and unexpected hiatus. I don't know, I guess I just haven't been feeling the video making itch lately? Either way, I figured this was a good time to do a video on one of the many Jeopardy computer game adaptations, due to Alex Trebek's recent unfortunate and untimely passing. So...let's get the elephant in the room out of the...

There is absolutely nothing to describe how hard this game is to find...well, if you're looking for it on computers, anyway. For reasons I will never be able to understand, this game is excruciatingly hard to find. In the last decade (!!!) that I have eyed...

In loving memory of Regis Philbin: 1931-2020 If ever there were a period piece of early 2000s television, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire was that incarnate for game shows of the time. You all know the show by this point, and in fact it's one of my earliest TV memories that doesn't involve PBS. Of course, I was so young at the time that I didn't know an ounce of even the 100 dollar questions, but...

An Adventures in Odyssey computer game? To borrow the colloquialism, surely you jest! Yes, really. This is the first game to be based off a Christian-centered radio drama for kids that has run since 1987. About a year ago, I started listening to the show while at work, and I've liked it a lot. I'm young at heart, and I am a Christian as well, so I guess it wasn't too surprising. It helps that i...

This just popped up on my feed and unlocked memories I had COMPLETELY forgotten. What a nostalgia journey!
My childhood is ruined

When I was real little playing this game, I would mainly get the Horst one, then the Nadine one, then the Claw one third, and one time with Rosie. I don’t think I remembered getting the ending with Gill or Pierre. But, Horst & Pierre’s screams when they get bit is hilarious. And I like Horst & Claw’s ending pictures the best!

Funny how the zoombinis never minded how much they looked alike, but everyone else does to the point of not serving and violence.😅 I was 7 and it was only at home. I loved the narrator and the jokes. I've always wanted to complete it, but never had that kind of time.😅😂

princess lolly is kind of cute...i really want someone to water granny nut....its the funniest thing i remember.
I’m looking for the game with the white robot with green ears/top of head and red nose. I know it was an educational pc game I played in 1999-2002 on Windows.
This game exceeded expectations, exceptional, thoughtful development
Ohhh what a time to be alive. To see a sports car only cost $25k must’ve been nice 43:10
If only they can get this game up and running again. I very fondly remember playing this game a ton on my families first computer in the early 2000s. Good times indeed

I love how they went from actual voice actors in the early games to just grunts and sighs for the later games (Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Harry Potter, etc).
“We hope your hard drive stays intact” 😂😂😂
Anyone else here played the demo version of this game from a Sonny's Race for Chocolatey Taste game disc?
Dredging up things from the dark crevices of memory..
I have the PS2 version of "Lego Island: Xtreme Stunts", too, since I was a boy!
All this needs is a horrific "ska" soundtrack and we're set.
I have seen and played this before!
My ridiculously strict first grade teacher made a rule for us not to use the bomb eraser (which you used at 8:50) and would have a big fit anytime a student used it lmfao.
