Show Notes

26:00 – Listener email discussion question “If you could steal any retro gaming car (not any other vehicle, just a car), what would it be?”
33:00 – “Ghost Grove” by Platonist
35:19 – Retro Showdown
38:11 – Bailey’s pick “Family Feud” (SNES)
39:22 – Hunter’s pick “Metroid 2: Return of Samus” (Gameboy)
40:52 – Jason’s pick “Katamari Damacy” (PS2)
41:36 – Coins, gems, rings, stars. A Jedi needs none of these. But they are everywhere in video games. Our hosts try to find games with collectibles that don’t include the former. And then we talk about things other than old video games. It’s one of those podcasts.
1:04:29 – The time is now! Did you know that we act as your Senators in the Retro Showdown (or Members of Parliament if you’re Canadian)? Every vote counts and so does yours! Be sure to vote for your favorite below and if you have a burning question, observation, or general knowledge you’d like to share, we encourage it by emailing us!
