Hey everyone! We’re still here, I promise. And we’re talking about destructible toy lines, awful British fish things, and a really gross duo of cartoon animals. I guess you could say, this episode is about a bunch of dummies.
We’ve got cowboys, Jedi, and gambling. What more could you possibly want? Do you like really good arcade ports about colorful gun-slingers shooting capitalists? We got it! Do you like playing casino games but without the money or actual casino? We got that too! Do you like Star Wars? Oh boy, we got it!
Hey everyone! Chase and Emmy are back to discuss ants and rpgs. First up is the Maxis game SimAnt, another PC sim port. Emmy has a lot of love for this game, but Chase isn’t a huge fan of bugs. Give this one a listen and find out if Emmy’s nostalgia will win the day over Chase’s entomophobia.
Your hosts Chase Keys and Willie Martindale are back to discuss another three strange games in the short library of an equally strange system.
Today we’ve got three games that are fine. These are fine. They’re fine. Well, two of them are fine. Well, Emmy thinks two of them are fine. Chase thought one of these games wasn’t worth his time. But they both agree on one thing: one of these games is very bad. The others… they’re fine.
Classic Looney Tunes shorts, American game shows, 90s anime; these are just some of the topics we talk about in this episode. We’re talking about Daffy Duck: The Marvin Missions, Family Feud, and Kendo Rage.
Okay, Chase and Emmy were a little cranky on this one. But you would be too if you had to play these three games back-to-back. Cliffhanger is a boring game that plays acceptably, until it doesn’t. Battletoads and Double Dragon isn’t fit for either of those franchises (and that’s saying something because we already kinda don’t like Battletoads.) And Aero the Acrobat is kinda like if a DM went through the trouble of crafting a really excellent story, and was then just hell-bent on wiping the party and ending the game early.
We have made it to another month in our chronology, so it’s time to talk about an issue of Nintendo Power. Our guests for this episode are two-thirds of the amazing team from the Gateleapers podcast. Jason and Matt might have been too young to have read this issue when it was new, but they have a ton of hilarious commentary to offer anyway.
It’s a zombie jamboree! But there’s also mummies, chainsaw maniacs, killer dolls, and more! I guess it’s more like a monster mash. But whatever you want to call it, we’re talking about the Lucasarts classic Zombies Ate My Neighbors. You better believe we’re gonna have to properly rank this one. How high do you think it should go?
We’re talking about Tuff E Nuff and Top Gear 2. Also we briefly mention Utopia: Creation of a Nation.
