Old-Schooled #10 Promo

Time sure does fly by, and Old-Schooled has already had ten tournaments under its belt. And for the tenth tournament in the series I wanted to do something special, and that’s where not only this challenge for the tournament comes from, but also where the video comes from. Featured in this video is Evan Small as himself, Abraham Forosan as the Cameraman, and myself as, well, myself, and Abaddon. Music this time around is the Pixel Peeker Polka provided by http://incompetech.com and Deathborn’s theme from F-Zero GX.

Old-Schooled May 2012 Secret Game Hint #3

The 9th tournament in the epic retro gaming face-off known as Old-Schooled draws nigh! How nigh you say?

That… nigh!

(Unless of course you’re reading this after it happened in which case that joke isn’t going to make much sense. Oh, how I date myself.)

With the tournament so ni- close there is only time for one, final, secret game hint. Let’s see if you can guess what the game will be based on the following clip.
