What do you get when you mashup 44 NES failures and set it to the song "Fever" from Dr. Mario? You get a really slow news day, that's what. Hey, don't complain! We're still trying to provide you with entertainment during this Christmas Holiday. YOU'RE WELCOME!
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

loved it. had to send it around to friends so they think i'm cool and was the one that found it. like i'm some sort of cowboy in the wild internet frontier. anyway... ya.. good shit.
I remember playing pretty much all of those games, except the Dragon's Lair and the GJ JOE game at the end. Also in the last second or so I'm not sure which game the top-down shooter was with the guts. I'm thinking it was Abadox, which I did play, but I don't remember any top-down levels, probably because I couldn't do the first level. I don't remember. oh well.
Wow, yeah, played all of those, and died in some of the same ways. Kind of funny how far into some of those games he was (assuming he did the vid captures himself) to get some of those deaths.
one of the videos featured at the end has someone playing Mega man 2 on the piano. It's quite nice even though I think I hear him screw up a couple of times:
That made my day! I fucking love that damn theme! I'll hum it from time to time and not even realize it... I've been shocked a few times by people recognizing the tune!
Also, Athena! A ha ha!
