Games I regret buying... 

What games do YOU regret buying? Thanks for watching!

You didn't lose your copy of MySims, you called it evil and buried it in a forest next to a school somewhere.

I'm gonna be honest, i miss PB and Jeff

That story about Nintendo sending you unrequested shovelware, getting upset you didn't promote it, then notifying you you've been taken off their list is so fucking funny to me. Even funnier at least that one is still sealed, the only thing that would've made it better is if you'd been selling off the games they sent you lmao

I love that the reasons aren't all just "game bad move on" way more enjoyable watch that way

must be really cool to collab with a franchise you adore tbh lol

The New Super Mario Bros. Wii game was one of my favourite games to play with my siblings growing up. The chaos we'd get into, throwing each other off the map, speedrunning whole levels and leaving the others behind, going into a bubble whenever it was too hard (or just because we felt like it) so that the best of us could carry the team to the end, it was so much fun! I don't know how fun it would be alone (and I admit that the graphics don't really have the charm that other Mario games do) so I respect your opinion, but it will forever remain a cherished childhood memory of mine.

Peebs! I played Little Kings Story, and it is one of the best Wii games I ever played, and I think you will enjoy it. It’s like Playing a pikmin game but you CONQUER THE WORLD! The Princesses you kidnap are added to your harem. Every Kingdom you conquer has a king to overthrow and the kings daughter to “rescue”.

"i lost my other copy of my sims" um didn't you bury it?

For me, it’s Splatoon 2, because I foolishly bought it at the very end of its life cycle after the Order and Chaos event to play with my cousin… which never happened.

channel i DON'T regret watching

That moment when you realize that Skyrim and Fallout have aliens and interdimensional beings, and Starfield doesn't.

I don't remember anything about The Conduit except 1. It got a sequel, and 2. That sequel ends with you meeting robot soldier clones of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln

I loved that Wii Mario bros game! If you grew up with it, playing it with siblings, it would be a trophy of a game based on nostalgia alone. Still have it. 🤭 I used to pick up my sister’s character (Luigi) with Mario for the levels she couldn’t keep up on. I’d run the whole level while my character carried hers on his head 😂 keeping her safe and running her to the finish line past all the tricky jumps

Luigi's Mansion for 3DS isn't a bad port at all. It's unfortunate the co op is so laggy, but in single player the game runs fine.

Man that smiley man era of pbg brings so much nostalgia

“How often are you sitting together with people playing like console games in person.” Man how times have Changed, I remember playing consoles games with my brothers for hours all on the same couch. Playing melee, Mario party 4, or hell even 4 swords adventures. Crazy how times have changed.

I swear if the Zelda cdi games are here

PBG's Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth experience is very similar to that time I bought rise of the tomb raider thinking it was the first in the reboot trilogy, only to later learn it was the second.

I personally really enjoyed New Super Mario Bros Wii. The level where you ride on the bone dragon in world 8 is the most memorable part of the game to me. It's nowhere near as great of a game as Super Mario World but it is fun and I still like to replay it every so often.

Funny story about The Conduit: I was at a Boy Scout week-long summer camp when I was a lil teen. We weren't allowed to bring anything electronic, but I was allowed to bring comics and magazines. I brought some Mario/Zelda comics that I really loved and the brand-new Nintendo Power magazine that just came out. For 7 excruciating days, I read that mag front to back with new games that were coming out, and the two I was most excited for were Scribblenauts and The Conduit. I legit couldn't believe that there was a game that could give you whatever noun you could ever want, as well as another game that was a legit fps on the Wii. Keep in mind GoldenEye didn't come out yet, and RedSteel was our only option. I waited so long for that game, and the drive home got me so excited to play it. Ngl, I played the hell out of that game, both single player and online. If I recall it was hard as hell, but still really fun. It felt like a callback to old-school PC retro shooters. Once GoldenEye came out, I did not touch that game since. The story, local/online, and paintball mode in GoldenEye were just too damn fun.

I will defend New Super Mario Brothers. It was a Wii game my sister and I grew up playing together. We had so many hours on that game, and I've got a lot of fond memories from playing it. So I think it's awesome!

new super mario bros wii was amazing if you played it with your family. it's an okay single player game, but the joy comes from the chaos of the 2-4 player experience. and arguably it's the best of the series of NSMB series

YES!!! Little kings story is a hidden gem. The humor and gameplay are awesome! It's like an RPG Pikmin

I miss PB and Jeff. Great times. Great video, too, though!

New Super Mario Bros Wii had the Cloud Land Theme. I would just sit there in the game and let the song play. Loooove it

You know what I can respect your opinion. I still think that New Super Mario Bros. Wii is worth playing and still consider one of the great 2D Mario games.

Loved this video! But also, I have to come clean: I'm sick of the Luigi's Mansion 3DS remake slander 😤 I played Luigi's Mansion 1 on GameCube for the first time last year and loved it, immediately understood why it was so beloved. Then I played Dark Moon. Then, before playing LM3 I decided to follow the release order strictly and play the 3DS Remake. I was expecting the worst because of how often I've heard you say it was awful... It's the same game. Like it's genuinely almost *identical*. It controls a little worse because of it being on the 3DS of course. But other than that I think it's one of the most faithful remakes I've ever played. In the past you've said it removes all the charm of the original, and I genuinely don't see how that's possible because it's almost a complete 1:1 remake. I was flabbergasted lol. My best guess is that so much of the experience is tied specifically playing it on the GameCube for a lot of people, because again, the game itself is practically unchanged. Seriously I recommend anyone who wants the game on the go to give it a shot. PBG you should give it another shot too. Or hell even play it back-to-back with the original just to see. Normally that'd be ridiculous to suggest but the game is so short it's actually feasible lol

I think a MASSIVE part of why Switch Sports and Mario Golf Run Around feel so soulless is that Nintendo has optimized out explorable spaces. Everyone who had ever told me anything about Wii Sports says the best part is WooHoo Island, aka THE RESORT. And I personally have spent countless hours exploring every nook and cranny of Mario Golf Advanced Tour’s overworld, from my childhood to today. Menus to get to game modes is all we ever get these days, I guess because it’s efficient, but it’s not fun. No one has ever gotten lost in a menu for hours and been happy about it. The response to the “soulless-ness” that you mentioned is that what we really want is Peach’s Castle, Gruntilda’s Lair, Advanced Tour’s club house and overworld, or really ANY explorable, (technically) liminal space for us to unwind in in between the core gameplay of any of these titles. Think about Splatoon 1, 2, & 3 and how much time we’ve all spent exploring their plazas!! And how each one was slightly bigger than the last. There was rarely anything meaningful to DO in them, so many little charming corners to see and imagine yourself actually being near. We want more of THAT.

Final fantasy 7 Remake came out on PS4 and 5. Like only 4 years ago. Why on earth did you think it was on the PS3?

"I Love me an ugly old lady or two- or three even." -Peebs, 2024

18:29 after Fallout 4 and especially after seeing 76, I instantly told my friends Starfield was gonna be boring trash. I NEVER looked at gameplay or even the launch trailer, I heard it was their next game and just said those words instinctually. Then it came out and they all tried to cope and eventually they all came around. Still funny to me to think about.

26:12 LMAO love this era of youtube

I honestly love these unscripted videos where you talk/ramble/rant about video games! I hope you do many more! 😊

In other words, buyer's remorse.....I think it happens to most people.

Awesome channel! Been watching for years and am still a huge fan of Peanut Butter Gamer/Peebs content. Thanks for the awesome vids over all these years. One of my favorite RU-vid content to watch.

Yeah starfield is def one of the worst games to waste your time in. Played it for 32 hours and was able to get a refund. Devs were also gaslighting customers as well, really bad taste

NSMB Wii slander is insane

Peebs My Sims videos were my childhood!! I CANNOT be the only one! 😭💕

The random clip of Mario and Link kissing has to be the highlight lol

For FFVII Rebirth you do not HAVE to buy the first game. It does a ***The Story So Far*** optional choice in the beginning menu before you Contunie or Load Game.

There aren’t many games that I regret buying now that I think about it, but if I had to name one it would be call of duty modern warfare back in 2019. I don’t dislike the game, but it’s definitely one of those games that I get more motivated to play when I have friends playing it, and unfortunately my friends just weren’t that interested in COD anymore. Because of that, my motivation to play it eventually died off as well

The Starfeild one. Honestly look like jumpscares you'd see in indie horror games.

The Top 100 - just, broke me I was so frustrated with it, knowing what it could have been..... You will break that vow tho, callin it now

I actually really enjoyed the My Sims Series when i was a kid. I think your Issue with it is probably that you were a grown adult or teenager playing a game that is clearly meant for 8 year olds.

Peebs, of COURSE I remember The Conduit! Before the game had come out people were talking about how realistic the graphics were, especially for the Wii! This prompted one user to type out the once infamous question: "Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?" That's right, that came from a Conduit forum post, and is how I will always remember that game. (Lord knows nothing else interesting came of it)

i knew my sims would be here LOL

The only thing I remember about the conduit is it is responsible for my favorite meme "Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?"

i loved the 1-2 switch videos with jeff

6:51 grandma jumpscare warning

11:45 I wouldn't say I am a New Super Mario Bros defender, but I did enjoy it. It certainly was a game that you beat once and the never touch again though. I remember being excited about it because they were bringing back the Koopalings after a long hiatus. But the they were not Bowser's children anymore, just minions. The Koopa Troopa's dancing to the level music is probably the most memorable part of the game lol.

4:46 THIS HAIRCUT😭

OOOO The Conduit! It was my favorite wii game back then lol. I was really friggin good at the multiplayer of that game lol. I remember the jank, escaping the map, the glitches, weapon fusing.. the dreaded lamp post... if you know, you know. BTW there was The Conduit 2. Had a gun that could oneshot you throuhg walls lol. Fun times

Wii sports is how i got my grandma to fake box me 😂 , i miss wii sports era of life

I love that you pulled up the jogging scene from the Zelda CDi video 😆 A classic

i remember when i was a kid my sims was one of my favorite games and pbg was my favorite youtuber (still is) and when i found out he didn’t like my sims i was genuinely distraught😭

I never played any of the Conduit games. Yes there is a Conduit 2. The only thing I remember about them is seeing the bat shit insane ending to Conduit 2. George Washington and Abraham Lincoln walk out of some stargate looking portal wearing power armor and saying we are here to help then it cuts to the credits. It's one of the strangest things I have ever seen in a video game LOL

The MySims slander continues nooo. The enjoyment of that game really is the furniture creation. I was expecting Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival!

Ohh, the Conduit. I loved that game! Don't remember much about it now, but I remember playing it over and over again!

i remember The Conduit. Mostly because the 4chan thread about the game before release is the origin of the line: "Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?"

the only thing I remember about the conduit was that I once went in an online match and the only other person in there was shooting an rpg like a machine gun.

Little Kings Story is indeed a pikman clone but the game itself is very charming and enjoyable. I was always a fan of the OST in this game personally

This is the first collab I’ve ever purchased from and I’m so excited! 🎉

4:47 flashback moment, I remember seeing you at Gameattack when it first opened. I was like, "That's PBG!"

Little King's Story is probably one of my personal all-time favorites. Its been done real dirty by both the remake and the steam port, but the original wii game is amazing

I will never forget the time when I was in Middle school and I bought the NASCAR 2011 game on Wii and even got a NASCAR themed Wii Wheel only to find an absolute abomination of a racing game. Some of the worst controls and graphics I had seen in my life. Pretty sure it’s the only game I bought that I refunded.

I loved spore as a kid, spent hours on it just making creatures. Its weird to go back and see just how quickly you can get thru it

I totally remember the Conduit on the Wii growing up, it was one of those games that my dad played for us because it was "too violent" for us to play ourselves lmao

Moooom, why is my food RU-vidr talking about video games?

My brothers and I really liked the coop wave multiplayer in Conduit 2. Little King's Story was a lot of fun, at least at the time. It'd be worth playing I think. It's really weird and good for video content

Ironically the devs of GrimGrimoire (Vanillaware) did another RTS/SRPG game called Unicorn Overlord just a few months ago and it’s absolutely fantastic and of course is beautiful.

Not only do I remember The Conduit, I still have my Special Edition version. I like the game and still think it's fun.

If you like Pikmin at all, you owe it to yourself to play Little King’s Story. Easily one of my favorite Wii games…and sadly the last we ever saw of Cing. (I do love the New Super Mario games, but I was always playing with friends or siblings. I doubt I’d have such fond memories playing alone.)

Absolutely play little king's story, it's great and charming

Hey, I remember the Conduit! It was one of my favourite Zero Punctuation reviews lmao

I was waiting for mysims to show up, and tbh I think I finally understand where the distaste comes from. I love the building but I didn’t come from the mindset that it’s animal crossing meets the sims, I didn’t know what either of those were at that time

I hear a lot of good things about Little King's Story for the Wii, possibly being a "hidden gem", so I'd give it a try.

You absolutely slept on Little King's Story and should give it a play when you feel like some pikmin

“This side dish Mario should have been the third coming of gaming Christ” -peebs (maybe)

Excellent video, Peebs, as always. Yes, I think you should check out Little King's Story. I would describe it as Pikmin meets Age Of Empires. It's very kid-friendly and, honestly, kinda relaxing to play. But, you MUST have an appreciation for classical music as most of the background music is made up of it. For example: the William Tell overture plays during some boss fights and the victory screen includes the Nutcracker Suite.

Totally regret buying Mario maker, I don't have internet and play alone on my switch, I basically bought it for nostalgia reasons and because there was huge hype on RU-vid. I feel so stupid for wasting so much money on an online game, played for like an hour maybe and felt sad after :(

Little King's Story is actually pretty solid. I'd recommend it if you like Pikmin.

I'd say yes, play Little King's story. I remember i had fun with it, its a very underrated game and hidden gem. It's not the greatest game ever, but I think you could easily get a video out of it. It's a pikman clone for sure, but its done right with well executed ideas that make it stand out. New Sups are fun co-op games, but they're dull single player experiences. They're too... safe... they're very by-the-numbers and there's just not much actual meat on the bones, but the chaos that comes from even one extra player can make all that trivial.

Little King Story is an absolute gem of a game. It's pretty much how you summed it up but the characters are so rememberable and the story is so wholesome.

I'm a New Super Mario Bros defender

Starfield? Nah, go play Outer Worlds instead.

oooo you could do a video series of playing the games you regret playing as well ;o maybe >,>

i loved watching you and jeff play luigi's mansion together, i loved when he stole all of your boos from you or that's what i remember happening anyway LOL

I regret buying Sonic Forces!

PLAY LITTLE KING'S STORY!! I emailed you a decade ago, and it was my proudest achievement that you responded with a hot, "maybe"! I should print that and frame it....

Props to the video editor, their clip selection is on point.

Its interesting seeing Little Kings Story in here, as it was one of my favorite games as a kid. Youre pretty right with what it is, a pikmin-like kingdom building game. I thought it was really neat though because it has a wide variety of units and a lot of little events that happen in the game. I'd definitely give it a try.

I’ve never been this early!

I definitely like the final fantasy 7 remake a lot.

Regarding Starfield, which faction quests did you try? The Main Quest is pretty dry early on, so it's good to mix it with something else. Personally, I would recommend for any new player to absolutely do the UC Vanguard questline first, not only does it literally give you a place to go to pick up on the lore of the setting, but it's a really good questline. It also opens up the UC SysDef/Crimson Fleet questline which is another good one. Mix those with doing the main quest every now and then, and you should be able to complete a run of the main quest (which is worth doing IMO). The game is actually built around new game plus so you don't want to do too much in a single run, it's better to save other factions for a new game plus. They absolutely could have done a better job with the main quest though, and leading new players towards UC Vanguard for a first run. I have fun with it anyway, looking forward to Shattered Space.

As much as I enjoy the other videos on this channel, my favorites are probably when Peebs talks about the games in his collection.

I’m not a New Super Mario Bros defender, I’m a New Super Mario Bros _Wii_ defender, because, in my opinion, it was actually the best out of the whole lineup. New Super Mario Bros for the DS is boring and the Wii U and Switch ones are just the same things again, but the Wii one was actually chock full of charm and the whole “shaking the wiimote thing to spin/twirl” was great in my opinion. I actually think that, aside from the art style being identical to the DS game before it, it was actually very innovative with its new power ups and mechanics that weren’t present in any previous game. I feel like the fact that they made every 2D Mario game after the Wii one identical to it really took the charm away and makes the Wii game more boring if you’re playing it after Nintendo has already released the slop fests that are the Wii U and Switch games, since they were created to be basically identical to it. However, from the perspective of the time that it was released, where the only other “New” Mario game before it was the boring DS one, it was very innovative. It is way better to play with friends/family, though. I had four siblings, so maybe I’m biased because I never played it alone. Anyways I totally understand that it doesn’t interest you though, considering that Nintendo ruined it by making every game after it basically the same, but at the time it actually was pretty awesome Being tired of all the same-y-ness is the reason I like Wonder so much though. The later games really made me extremely bored of the art style and mechanics that had previously charmed me.

You can play FF7 Rebirth without playing Remake. I did, and I still loved it. In fact, I’m going back and playing Remake now because I loved Rebirth so much. To each their own though.

Omg mentioning Myst has awoken something within me!! My teacher would gather our class on the carpet to play myst 3 together when I was 8/9 and I remember looking up walkthroughs for parts we were stuck on and pretending like I just knew the answers to make it seem like I was really smart haha. A lot of our creative writing tasks were based on screenshots/ plot points from the game too. What a good time :’)

New Super Mario Bros Wii is a really fun game, but I feel like you have to play it with some other people. A lot of people complain that it was too similar to the DS game, but the addition of multiplayer is actually huge. The mechanics (bumping into the other players, picking them up and throwing them, etc.) was like perfected. Would have made a good PB&Jeff playthrough, maybe with the addition of some other friends too for players 3 and 4.
