Hey Everyone! Welcome back to Gaming Road Warrior.
Relive the thrill of old-school rivalry with me as we revisit the NES classic, Spy vs Spy! This game was a staple at many of our legendary party nights, filled with devious traps and endless laughs. Join me as I break down the game's mechanics, delve into its engaging storyline, and explore each level and character in detail. I’ll also give you a closer look at the creative geniuses who designed these iconic spies and discuss what made this game a standout during its heyday. I’ll share both the upsides and the downsides from a modern perspective, providing a comprehensive review for both new fans and seasoned gamers.
Expect plenty of laughs too, as I inject my usual dose of humor into this retrospective. We'll even throw in some quirky side notes like our hilarious attempts at lawn darts during game breaks-just for the fun of it!

My fondest memories of Spy vs Spy was always the little segments on MadTV! Looks like a fun little two player game on the NES.

I remember MadTV, 😆. That was a good show. Yeah, you should definitely give Spy vs. Spy a try Feral. It's a fun game. Well have another friend play with you and it's better.

Thanks Derek. Oh, never played the Commodore 64 one before. That sounds fun.
Very happy that I stumbled upon this video, I collected MAD magazines and books as a kid and especially loved the Spy vs. Spy series. This game was always fun to rent and I’m glad it’s still getting attention today!

Thanks Mars Industries. Glad to see I'm not alone when it came to playing this game back in the day. That's cool you collected the magazines and books as a kid. Loved Mad Magazine and the board game of Mad which I owned back in the day.

That's cool Steven. I had a friend that would let me borrow this game but if he never owned it then it would be a popular rental for us as well.

Thanks Greg. Yes, reading Mad Magazines back in the day was enjoyable to read. Even though it was in a grocery store, lol. I do plan on buying a few that I remember as a kid.
Man, nostalgia. I played this for a little while, I know. Fun stuff.

GREAT video !!!! I love this game and rented it with my buddy for great long weekend sleepovers . I still had some fun playing it by myself a few years ago . But two player is where it's at !!!! I loved reading the Spy VS Spy in MAD Magazine all through the 80's . I was constantly buying MAD and Cracked Magazines . I eventually subscribed to them with my paper route money .

Nice Poe. Yeah, this was a great sleepover game for sure. I loved reading Mad Magazine back in the day. I never bought them, but read them at my grocery store back in the day. I'd like to pick a few up that I enjoyed as a kid. I also miss the board game which I owned as a kid. Found it at Goodwill when I was a kid.

@MikeTheGamingRoadWarrior I HAVE the boardgame !!!! My 5th grade teacher had it in the classroom and we played it every time that it rained and we couldn't go outside and play . About 7 years ago I was talking about ot to friends at work and a work friend had it from hos childhood . He brought it into work and gave it to me .
I always used to rent this game and set up traps for my buddies. Good times! And yeah, that one tune gets repetitive and still sometimes gets stuck in my head!

Hi Billy. Not sure of the show since I was looking for lawn dart commercials and I found that on Google, lol. The only thing I know is that its from a CW show. BTW, I like your Avatar. Its from the Thriller movie with Christina. I own the 4k version of this film with the slip cover. Great revenge movie.

It helps having the manual with it but it really shines when you play it with another friend Riz. I didn't understand what the other items do with the exception of the traps. After reading what to do it made it easier for me to play the game. I hope you'll give it more of a chance Riz.
