In this Vs. Challenge episode of The Terrible Gamers Podcast, hosts Kevin and Kyle step back into the early days of Super Smash Bros. on the Nintendo 64 to answer one of the most hotly debated questions in retro gaming history: Which of the original eight Smash characters is truly the best?
From Mario, Link, and Pikachu, to Donkey Kong, Kirby, Samus, Fox, and Yoshi, the guys break down the strengths, weaknesses, and chaos each fighter brought to the original Super Smash Bros. 64 roster. This isn’t about tournament metas or modern patches—this is pure N64-era Smash, when items were on, Final Destination wasn’t a thing yet, and friendships were tested on living room floors.
Kevin brings the passion, Kyle brings the logic, and together they debate which character had the best move set, survivability, and overall dominance in the original Smash experience. Expect nostalgia, heated opinions, and plenty of laughs as they relive one of the most important multiplayer games in Nintendo history.
If you love retro video games, Nintendo 64 classics, Super Smash Bros, or gaming debates that don’t take themselves too seriously, this episode is for you.

In this episode of The Terrible Gamers Podcast, Kevin and Kyle return to the legendary world of the Nintendo Entertainment System to settle one question once and for all: What is the greatest NES game ever… according to us? Forget IGN’s list, forget the critics, forget the “official rankings.” This is about the games we actually played, the games we actually loved, and the 8-bit classics that shaped our entire retro gaming childhood.
Kevin jumps in with his trademark energy, calling out NES classics that deserve way more love, while Kyle brings the calm, reasoned breakdowns that keep the whole debate from spiraling. Together, they compare their personal top-tier NES picks against IGN’s “greatest games” list to see where the two worlds collide—and where they crash spectacularly.
From platformers to action-adventures to those unforgettable cartridge-era soundtracks, the guys dive deep into the titles that truly define retro video games and why some games absolutely belong at the top, no matter what the critics say.
If you're a fan of retro gaming, NES classics, YouTube gaming podcasts, or ranking the best games of all time, this episode is loaded with nostalgia, opinions, and the usual Terrible Gamers chaos.
