“Matt and Pat! They're friends who play together Learning and sharing and junk! One is nice and the other one is less nice! Who couldn't love Matt and Pat? Best friends play together!” — Season 2 intro song

Two Best Friends Play was a series of Let's Play videos originally found on the Machinima and MachinimaRespawn YouTube channels, and later uploaded to Vimeo, starring Matt and Pat, and occasionally Woolie and Liam. Starting with season ten, the series name was changed to New Super Best Friends Play fully incorporating Woolie and Liam, and as a spoof of Nintendo's New Super Mario Bros. series.

As of December 16, 2018, the Super Best Friends have disbanded and there will be no more Two Best Friends Play/New Super Best Friends Play episodes.

Description[]

More content can be found on the author's original channel here, which has their original Kirby's Epic Yarn and Silent Hill: Shattered Memories videos, several mini-episodes, the episodes for the Super Best Friends Brawl spin-off (which involves Mat, Pat, and Woolie competing in local multiplayer games), and their full-length Let's Plays. The theme song they use at the beginning of every episode is "Green Greens Theme" from the game Kirby's Epic Yarn, the first game they played.

Origins[]

According to the show's Facebook page, it started when The Switcher (Matt) invited his friend Snapshot King (Pat) over to play Kirby's Epic Yarn and record themselves taking their playthrough way too seriously. Their Facebook page further divulges:

"What started out as silly idea where a run-of-the-mill gamer...we'll call him, "Matt" decided he wanted to play Kirby's Epic Yarn with a buddy, we'll call him, "Pat" and record themselves taking it waaaay too seriously, has since exploded into a multimedia empire! This of course, is a half truth, as the pervasive online entity Machinima, simply saw said video, and just wanted them to make more of the same. So...so yeah."

Trivia[]

  • In episode thirty-seven of the Super Best Friendcast, The Man-Train Needs to be Tightly Knit, Matt speculated that the impetus for Two Best Friends play was playing Donkey Kong Country with his sister in 1994.
  • There were three episodes from Season 10, Overwatch, Quantum Break, and Hitman, that were only available on Vessel. With the death of Vessel, and Machinima never uploading the videos to YouTube, the Best Friends had to upload the videos themselves. The only video still lost is Hitman, though Pat and Woolie did a one-off of the game later on.
  • It was revealed by Matt in the IMSCARED episode of Shitstorm VI that he and Pat had made a Machinima video for the game Daylight but it was never uploaded because they lost the footage and hated the game.
  • In May of 2018, Machinima began removing videos of all of their shows, including Two Best Friends Play. This led to the loss of several episodes, until all Machinma episodes, except Hitman, were uploaded to Vimeo in August.
