Plumber's Don't Wear Ties: Definitive Edition Launches Today
Posted 05 Mar 2024 at 13:03 by Joshua Phillips
This crude, low-budget, critically panned and commercial failure of a title releases once more, now on Nintendo Switch!
Plumber’s Don’t Wear Ties originally released in the early 90’s, boasting a next generation experience via CD-ROM, with promises of full-motion video.
These days, it’s remembered for all the wrong reasons, in a ‘so bad it’s good’ kind of way, and found a new appreciation in the emerging world of early 2000’s YouTube via The Angry Videogame Nerd’s famous episode, which has amassed over 9 million views since it was first uploaded.
Scroll down for the launch trailer of this infamous experience, as well as the full description from the publisher:
Greed, lust, spirituality, white-knuckle chases, shameful propositions, a nun, humor, true love, jaded love, jealousy, taut action, comedy, a bad guy, a good guy, a hero, spine-tingling suspense, a hot babe, brazen bravado, a damsel in distress, and a Hollywood ending!!
