I did this to all of my friends in SF2 on SNES and was hated for it. A few years later, I went to my local arcade and, seeing some older kids crowd around the cabinet, thought it was my time to step up. I promptly got my shit absolutely wrecked to the point of tears. Stormed out of the arcade.
Dude it's so entertaining how everyone in the fgc has this story where they got put in the corner and forced to learn. Jwong, Daigo, Lil Bussy Man, all of them got shoved in that corner and yelled at to learn the damn matchup. Fuckin impressive they all went "ight bet"
Love these stories man. The picture you paint through words is freaking amazing. Brings back my own childhood staying up late playing golden eye, license to kill, slappers only, no oddjob with all the family.
This is the most relatable shit I've ever seen. Being one of the younger cousins during the SF II era was a fucking travesty until you learned how to play. It's only so many times you can get slapped across the back of the neck.
One of my earliest memories is being like 4 damn years old and the neighborhood 8 year olds fucking with me not teaching me how to hadouken. The birthright experience of the mid-millennial.
I feel like everyone who is into fighting games has an origin story about getting their ass absolutely handed to them and that being the moment they decided NEVER AGAIN. Not to never lose, but to never lose in complete ignorance and of course the will to become the one who hands out the ass whooping to those who don't know. You gon learn today.
for me, it was my dad. i told him i learned how to hadouken and he's like " oh so you think you're good?" and proceeded to SPD me into the shadow realm
I don't always agree with the gatekeeping stuff, but I do appreciate your ability to intelligently talk about how you became who you are. Still the best video essays in the FGC
Ngl, I think I turned my cousin into a lil bussy man. Same run of games, same grandmas house. We used to get him pissed and then make him apologize for yelling. The dudes crazy in MVC2 now though
For me a lot of my family gaming experiences were with my older cousin too. That constant teasing and trying to break you in a way was so fucked up looking back but man when I beat him in NHL that shit felt so good. It bred a sense of competition in me in the worst way possible lmao
Man this is tragic, holy shit. I would've quit fighting games altogether if that happened when I was a kid. You're a fantastic storyteller, always love these
bro really pulled a Maximilian pegasus on you, obama rally just an anime character. jokes aside, obamatales really be some of my favorite content on youtube.
this feels like one of those anime episodes where learn the origin story of a villain character and suddenly everything makes sense. Btw you are a really good storyteller!
Your storytelling skills are incredible, man. I felt like I was in the room with you and DJ, and yet your experience feels personally familiar too. Takes me back to my brothers breaking me down in some Bomberman 64. The animation was amazing too, shoutout to BeffenM. Keep doing what you do!!
I feel that story, especially since the only time i played SF2 was in the arcade, so all of my quarters evaporated in a few minutes of play against someone better.
When I was a kid, my parents would leave me with a fist full of quarters in the bowling alley arcade while they competed in their league. SFII Champion edition, MK, and the other usual suspects. Someone taught me how to do shoryuken at one point, and in comes this middle-aged guy who had been having a bad night bowling. Round one, Fight, ShoryukenShoryukenShoryukenShoryukenShoryuken. He punched the cab and walked off. A degenerate Ken main was born that day.
"If you have big families, you know how it is" BRUH, I used to HATE that shit when I got bad grades. It was an inquisition whenever someone showed up: They'd ease me into a state of relaxation then BAM; "What's this I heard about you getting bad grades?" NOW I'm in panic mode cuz I legit forgot about my grades, and now I gotta stumble my way outta give my ass whooped.
I watched the ObamaTales playlist a week or so ago and was as hoping you'd come back with more stories, glad you brought back this animator too, elite content.
I feel like at one point in every fighting game players life, there is a Lil Bussy Mane moment. A moment where they are so ashamed, so utterly defeated, that they swear from that day forward to make someone else feel that hurt, at least once
The editing, the music, the memories, the animation (shout out to some of the best One Piece faces of all time!) and THE PROMISE, Another banger video. WTF you mean there was a Alpha 2 for SNES.
I feel like everyone in the fgc has a similar story of getting their ass beat that fueled their desire to improve. Some use that conviction to blossom into a lab monster, a combo artist, a defense machine, or any other archetype. But deep down, we all originated from the Lil Bussy Man inside us all
When I was a kid I had friends like that. They never wanted to tell you how to do the moves and just wanted you to figure it out. I wanted people to be better so I would always tell people how to do the special moves.
@@doogies FAR too long bruh. How you goin post one that goes VIRAL...and not follow up for like a years. (and that's AFTER Sajam, gave you a shout out months after your ST2 post, and it went viral AGAIN), heh i'm just sayin, GET ON THAT, it's what the people WANT haha
Holy shit this story really hit me, growing up in a backwoods town in Louisiana I still remember the whole neighborhood of kids on sunday tryna hop on nba jam or some bootleg street fighter game from the only arcade machine in town, and I especially remember all the ass whoopins I got...
