      It was also a blast to be there as well, especially listening to someone scream "yea she is" that made my day
      EDIT: I basically told on myself that it was me who did that......... Oops

    Gotta respect the guts of the dude who WILLINGLY picked a Brutal Question

    • @rsp2264
      @rsp2264 Před 8 měsíci +1

      IMO that was probably one of the tamer brutals considering it was Pokemon, still got the question wrong though both me and him. The dude was way off but probably because he didn't know it.

    I love how this ranges from "Who's Mario's girlfriend?" all the way up to "What's the calendar-based, one-day-per-year easter egg in this 27 year old, stand-alone, semi-niche game, for the Sega Saturn?" when many of the contestants have never even SEEN a Sega Saturn or a single piece of media that even tangentially mentions Nights: Into Dreams.

      I was shouting at my screen saying ohh I know that one!! I wish I was there to answer that question because of I had a massive hyper fixation towards NiGHTS into Dreams in my teen years.

    41:08 I actually got all 5. I love this kind of crowd. I've got social anxiety and mild autism so I would actually end up making a lot of friends who share the same interests/hobbies. Mira's so frickin' adorable. Congratulations to Ben.

    I'm one of the contestants in this video (The one who cosplayed as Edmond Dantes aka the person in the fancy suit and hat) and man it was a very pleasant experience! I didn't make it very far unfortunately but I'm glad that I was fortunate enough to participate the show in the first place! The crowd was awesome too! Looking forward to the next time TRG's come back to Otafest!

  • @kevinr.9733
    @kevinr.9733 Před 11 měsíci +17

    That first Brutal Question is one where (if you have any knowledge of Pokémon) you either know the answer right away or feel stupid for not knowing the answer when you're told because it seems really obvious in hindsight. Like, of course the two Pokémon that learn Transform are the two Pokémon that never received any new forms. They received all the new forms.
    Edit: Speaking of Brutal Questions, how fitting that April was asked about April Fools' Day.

  • @EpicBaller72
    @EpicBaller72 Před 11 měsíci +24

    This is the first Thrown Controllers show that I got to attend live in person! Didn't get the opportunity to be a contestant, but it was really fun being part of the audience nonetheless! I enjoyed it lots, and I hope to see you guys at future Otafests!

  • @Rexaura888

    Kind of a shame that ConBravo probably isn’t coming back. Otafest is the only Canadian convention that TRG will be going to for the foreseeable future. Least it’s in “Jonland” so it’ll be easier on Jon for once!

    I paused the video to try and guess the Pokémon Brutal Question, I don't think I would have been able to guess before they press for an answer but I was able to think of Mew before I brought up the Pokédex to figure out what the second was (Ditto). Excellent question, and maybe the only Brutal Question I would have ever had a hope of knowing if I were able to compete

    I'm keeping track of the questions I did NOT get right.
    Halo Audio
    Nights Brutal
    Persona 5 audio
    Mass effect Who is that
    Nintendo Playstation Brutal.
    Every other question I got correct and I've played every game here except for Taz on SNES.

    • @BDeLuca4444
      @BDeLuca4444 Před 11 měsíci +3

      For the Nights April Fools question, my guess was it tricked the player into thinking it was deleting the save data, like a sanity effect from Eternal Darkness. I do believe Nights came out before Eternal Darkness, but I have never played it so I didn’t know.
