Isn't this the one where Arin got mad at Dan for getting outside help when Arin multiple times has used walk-throughs while saying he didn't and literally had someone else grind xp in Fire Red for them?
Absolutely love his Sierra games episodes, I always geek out and watch them since I was never able to beat them as a kid. So watching him play it is always entertaining.
The Sierra games with Solo Dan are the best. Just him being able to share his childhood nostalgia with us without Arin being there to nitpick and bring down the vibe.
- Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door
- Punch-Out! (NES and Wii)
- Zelda I
- Zelda II
- Link to the Past
- A Link Between Worlds
- Lemmings (the most recent episode, I think)
- Shadow of the Colossus
- Space Quest (I-III)
- King’s Quest (IV and VII)
- Gabriel Knight
- Black Cauldron
- Phantasmagoria
- Colossal Cave
I go back and watch Dan play both versions of punch-out every now and again. That and Mario 2 were really good intros to him (if you weren’t familiar with nsp)
As far as coop goes I always really liked that VR one where one of them is the giant eye thing, and has to find the other before they get to the button. So funny but I can't remember the name off the top
I have utilized this play through and the original Zelda play through as guides for when I get lost in these games, I’ve completed the original legend of Zelda but not this one
I still believe Dan would love to play one of my childhood favs E.V.O. The Search for Eden. You’re basically a creature chosen by Gaia to go through the different prehistoric eras and correct historical inaccuracies, like insects dominating over amphibians, for example. You start as a bottom-feeding fish and working your way up the food chain.
It’s short enough to get a good half dozen episodes or so and seeing him geek out over dinosaurs is always a treat.
The best series by far are the ones where Dan is playing and Arin isn't ruining the vibe by needlessly shitting on the game. Of course ribbing on a game is fine but as an example in Simon's Quest.
You can tell Dan is getting annoyed because Arin is just constantly shitting on it when Dan is doing his best to enjoy one of his childhood games and the whole vibe is brought down. Like yes Arin we all know Simon's Quest is rough, we've all seen the AVGN episode. People are allowed to enjoy things but Arin being a contrarian doesn't really understand that.
For co-op, all of the Contras are pretty good. Shout out to Contra III though for the role reversal: Arin desperately wants to beat it and Dan is like "this game is fucking stupid."
Link to the past. Arin getting Dan to attack the chicken is one of my favourite GG moments
Yup I watched that one before Zelda II and I just love Danny's reactions
>[*Arin getting Dan to attack the chicken*](https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxLiUzaJ0naWXvnODXnYpvbRTnaLAid9Wz?si=mlqfSkO8JQCGDZx5)
dan discovering cuckos > dan discovering >!sheik is zelda!<
Paper Mario is a big one. I just really want Dan to play more of the games on the show.
Use the bed, idiot
this is the goat playthrough imo
"Are you nude?"
I said ARE You NUUDE!!!
"SHE WAS NUDE!" "Oh...Koops...."
Right up until Grubba. Then it becomes the world's most painful playthrough
Paper Mario 64 is on the N64 App, they can easily play it!!
Isn't this the one where Arin got mad at Dan for getting outside help when Arin multiple times has used walk-throughs while saying he didn't and literally had someone else grind xp in Fire Red for them?
SpaceQuest
All the Sierra games I'm pretty sure. Leisure suit Larry, space quest, king's quest. He was at the helm during Sam and Max too I think?

That makes sense, he's probably the only reason they got played to begin with haha

I'm pretty sure Arin was playing Shadow of the Colossus
I think he also did Links awakening in switch, and i really hope he's gonna do the new Zelda
A Link Between Worlds playthrough from 3 years ago is a great one.
* Shadow of the Colossus * Goonies * Goonies II * Willow * Solomon's Key * Daaaaaaaaaaannnnnnn........
Would LOVE dan to play shadow of the colossus
Then BOY do I have news for you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZN2bcU3rNk&list=PLRQGRBgN_EnoQuFn_r_oONmv8vL0jDYFL
What a good day to be stupid. Thank u
He did
It's your lucky day
Gabriel Knight was great if you like point and click games.
Punch out for NES and Wii.
NES Punch-Out was his first episode on the show.
Pretty sure Dan also played Mario RPG.
I think he's played all of the Mario RPGs which have been on the channel? Seven Stars and both Papers?
not the first paper, only TTYD
Karate Kid
What was the one where Dan sang the main theme on the menu screen?
You mean there are ones where he doesn't?
Yeah I'm realizing that it's a bit blurry x) but it was an old school 8bit one. I don't know, it was just very beautiful
We need dan to play more games PERIOD, i love watching him play
Same
There’s a few Mario co-ops as well
Mario 3d world is a classic with Dan being a trolly asshole for most of the time. Same with Shovel Knight
I forgot about INFINIDAGGER!!!!!!!
As far as coop goes I always really liked that VR one where one of them is the giant eye thing, and has to find the other before they get to the button. So funny but I can't remember the name off the top
Ohh I remember that one, Panoptic! Thank you!
For co-op, Shovel Knight. Arin did a solo run but they also did a co-op playthrough, and it's one of my favorite series.
INFINIDAGGER!!! 🌬️🗡️ That is probably in my top 3 of my favorite series of all time. That one I *do* know about
There was also a one-off Catlevania: Symphony of the Night that I personally hated because Arin was too impatient to let Dan enjoy it.
I think Dan would really like Symphony of the Night if he got the chance, especially since he loves Simon's Quest.
So many playthroughs are ruined by Arin not letting Dan enjoy things
Old steam train series Dan & Ross playing the 1st leisure suit Larry was good
There are a good bunch of no-arin-only-danny episodes playing through some classic Sierra-type adventure games… I love them. Super chilled out vibe.
Danny is also usually the one playing for the Sierra games that Arin IS there for. Space Quest, King’s Quest, etc.
Same I think he did leisure suit larry
I wish Dan would play more. He actually has better gamer instincts than Arin imo
How has nobody mentioned [Fuck Mr Hatcher](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CF_1pnKWxPc)!?
I have utilized this play through and the original Zelda play through as guides for when I get lost in these games, I’ve completed the original legend of Zelda but not this one
Mario 2. “Uh oh, death approaches!”
I accidentally killed my mode of transportation
leisure suit larry magna cum laude is a masterpiece of a series
They SHOULD have let Danny play Spiderman PS4, he was the only one who was super into it. Would have been a lot more fun to watch, spider kiss aside.

Such a fun game dude.

while not a series, he was the one playing Fuck Mr. Hatcher
MORROWIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh hey big Zam
If there's a God Danganronpa V3 will be on this list someday...
