Hello Supporters!

It's been a quiet month for SSFF. Producer Grace and I have been bouncing back after a long vacation and we've thought up a bunch of ideas for videos, but we weren't sure which one's to do next.

Half-Life Ports - Half-Life Dreamcast, Half-Life PS2, Half-Life Bonus Demo PS2, Half-Life 2 Xbox, Counter Strike Xbox, Orange Box Xbox 360. I've spent the last year or so tracking all these games down, and we're ready to go! The PS3 version of Orange Box is supposed to be especially bad, so I may order that one as well. We wanted to do this one last year but we just couldn't find the time, but now that a new Half-Life is actually coming out, it's an even better time

Strategy Guides - I finally have my game collection from Alaska! Which means all of my strategy guides! This would be a looser video about my collection and a look at weird guides like the MK9 guide that was obsolete on day one, the FF9 guide that had most of its info on a website, hilarious "unofficial" guides that have incredible custom art that looks nothing like the games their covering. There's lots of good stuff here!

Mini Consoles - This was fad that's maybe left us, but NES Mini, SNES Mini, PS1 Classic, and so on made such a huge splash in a short time. And it was mind-boggling how the games varied so wildly between regions! Like how Japanese PS1 Classic had Parasite Eve and North America PS1 Classic had... Rainbow Six? And then the upcoming Turbo Grafx 16 Mini is just going to feature full, untranslated Japanese games on it. What?? I know! 

Extremely Casual Games - aka, games before smart phones and apps. Like the InfoGenius Productivity Pak Day Planner and Spell Checker for the GameBoy, or the two Japanese Cookbooks for the Nintendo DS. Games that aren't actually games they just happen to be game systems. Totally useless stuff, my kinda thing!

Voting will be open until Friday the 31st, 7:00 PST. We shot the next actual video last week, "Secrets of Nintendo Rumble | Punching Weight". This one's going to be a lot of fun, going from the N64 Rumble Pak, to the GBC/GBA Rumble Carts, all the way to Rumble HD on Switch. That video is being edited as I write this and that'll be up later this week. 

Thanks!!Uncle Derek

Do Half-Life! I just finished Black Mesa would love to know more about the various ports

The Walking Deadpan

I'd say hold off on half life until early march for half life alyx to drop and cover the strategy guides now, that could be fun

Pops Shubert

Half-Life on PS2 was my first introduction to the series.... followed by Half-Life 2 on Xbox360 lmao

Valora Inverse

Gonna throw my vote in with strategy guides, just 'cause of how much of my life they were before the internet in terms of filling free time at school combing through them.

Aesthemic

Strategy guides for sure. That sounds like such an interesting topic. As The Walking Deadpan recommended, I'd wait until March to cover Half-Life.

Shell

Strategy Guides would be cool! I had the FF9 guide to internet links :)

Blake Barnett

Honestly I hope y'all end up making a video about all of these subjects at some point!

ItsACerealWow

Strategy guides and Half-Life ports, though I agree with the earlier poster that you should time the HL video closer to the release of HL: Alyx, should help you get more views when interest in the series is high again for both fans and newcomers.

Rick Lewis

Sure the internet is quicker, better, and free, but nothing will beat holding a paper strategy guide. I recently picked up the ones for the first two Dark Souls games and they are works of art.

Spiralofvertigo

I'm very excited to see a strategy guide video personally; I have so many good memories tied to them!

Paul Schroeder

Extremely Casual - they’re appealing in a “How did this get made?” and “Who was the market for this?” way. Also, because the research that goes into obscure titles like those *always* digs up something fascinating.

Xander Tenorio

Darn so many good subjects it’s hard to pick :(

Andy Holifield

Gotta give it to the strategy guides. I love my Earthbound guide, stinky cards and all! When production/designers go out of their way to give you another layer to your playthrough, it really is something special.

I had to vote twice. First was for strategy guides because I owned two (Prima's Pokemon Gold / Silver guide, and one with general hints about random SNES games, 95% of which I didn't own, and some of them weren't even available in Australia. The second one was the extremely casual games. I owned the DS Cooking Guide (but only ever used it once, giving way to taco kits and jars of curry simmer sauce which were easier and faster to cook) and I like random crap like that.

"Ridiculous Strategy Guides" as in ridiculously stupid or ridiculously awesome? My vote for for greatest strategy guide, aside form Earthbound of course, has got to be FFVI's Super Famicom 3-part players guide. The first book came out a month before the game launched and acted as a teaser with various insider tips and tricks as well as cool sneak peaks. The second book was a general strategy guide and basic walkthrough and it came out the day of the games launch. The third book came out a month after launch and showcased advanced tricks, secrets and game-breaking builds

Oxide

Aww, Extremely Casual Games is so low on votes. Hopefully that video can be done someday though XD The other options are great though and I look forward to either one.

Ryan Blarg

all of these topics are cool with me uncle D.

Mia Burkhart

I'd love to see the strategy guides one! I still have a Mario 64 guide that teaches you how to do the M25 glitch, despite the fact that it was fixed in the international version. And Prima's Ocarina of Time guide that completely doesn't tell you how to get the fourth bottle.

Sara Face

Hope the vacation was restful. And YAY! Finally! The Alaska treasure trove!

Joosh

God this was such a hard pick
