  1. Episode 196 : Super Adventure Island II (SNES)

    28 maart 2024 · 1 uur 12 min

    Afspelen
    Another patron request, we're talking about Super Adventure Island II for the Super Nintendo! We have played New Adventure Island for the TG16 before for the show, and we had all played earlier Adventure Island games, so we assumed this was yet another standard platformer where you collect fruit and run from left to right-- and we were wrong! This is a true adventure game, with an overworld, inventory, and even some puzzle solving. Listen as we discover a game all of us had overlooked before! Lees meer

  2. Episode 195 : Final Fantasy VII Dirge of Cerberus (PS2)

    7 maart 2024 · 1 uur 9 min

    Afspelen
    We conclude our FFVII coverage (see our most recent bonus shows for patrons on FFVII Advent Children and our round-table about Remake) with a look at the startlingly different take on the FFVII gameplay with Final Fantasy VII : Dirge of Cerberus for the PlayStation 2! This game let you play as Vincent in a mostly solo adventure that wasn't an RPG but a 3rd person shooter with RPG elements, and we're letting you know if we think it's worth playing, worth looking at for the story, or worth forgetting about. Lees meer

    This was a patron picked episode by Shaun from Failure2Conform, and you can find his music on https://failure2conform.bandcamp.com/ or on all socials as Failure2Conform!

    We also kick things off with our thoughts on the first bit of FFVII Rebirth, and answer a ton of questions about Billy. Why not?

  3. Episode 194 : Suikoden (PlayStation)

    6 februari 2024 · 1 uur 30 min

    Afspelen
    We're covering another request - Suikoden for the PlayStation! This game is a classic style JRPG that adds a large cast of playable characters, large scale battles, and an upgrade system that allows you to really modify your party in many ways. This game led to a series that was prevalent on the PlayStation 1 and 2, but has faded out over the years, although there is an HD remaster on the way. We played the original to see how this one holds up today! Lees meer

    Also discussed, new foods and games for 2024, memories of gaming with friends, and maybe the most devisive video game question we've answered -- Is Zelda an RPG?

    15 januari 2024 · 1 uur 8 min

    Afspelen
    It's our first episode of 2024, and we're starting it off with a Patron requested game, Body Harvest for the Nintendo 64 as picked by Joey H.! This game was developed by the company that would go on to make Grand Theft Auto III and change the landscape, and it has a lot of the things we'd see in that game-- but is there a reason this never had the success as their later offerings? We'll tell you what we thought! Lees meer

    As it's the start of the year, we talk new Christmas presents and purchases, and of course, answer some of your questions to try and stay current, and immediately fall behind.

    We love the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - in the arcades, NES, and SNES we've had some great games, but we had never played the TMNT counterpart to Turtles in Time -- TMNT : The Hyperstone Heist. Now we have, and we're here to talk about it. Lees meer

    Gather round the dinner table, because this year we're bringing you a puzzle game feast! We're serving up talk on 3 different puzzlers on 3 different consoles - arguably 4! First up, we're going to visit the Game Boy to take on Kwirk (he's A-MAZE-ing), then the Game Boy Advance for Egg Mania, and finally we finish off our meal with some NES/SNES action with Yoshi's Cookie!

    And as any good meal should, we end this one with a great conversation with you, our listeners, with a heaping helping of listener mail. Bon Apetit!

    It's a Patron request for our final episode of Retroween2023, as we take on Illbleed for the Sega Dreamcast! We steel our nerves, and venture into an amusement park that is designed to kill you, and perhaps Billy had one too many Hassy's beforehand. Lees meer

    Afspelen
    We're digging into the sequel to Legacy of Kain, which takes the top-down evil Zelda style Playstation gane and turns it into a 3d evil Zelda style Playstation game - but is that transition a successful one? Does it still have that Legacy of Kain feel, even though you aren't playing as Kain? This was a patron request, and at least one of us hadn't really played it before, so we did - and we're here to talk about it. Lees meer

    Also we take on some of your questions including one we cannot believe we haven't been asked before, "Is Birdo hot?".

    For the first time, we're reviewing a game that never made it out to North America! Thanks to patron "The 16-Bit Big Boss", we're taking a look at Terranigma! It's an action-RPG from the people behind Soul Blazer and Illusion of Gaia, but this third game in this thematic trilogy never made it to our shores. It's often referenced on people's top 10 SNES games, but what did we think? Listen to find out! Lees meer

    Oh hey - it's a Turbografx game, but wait! It wasn't picked by Jeremy P-- this one is a patron pick! Kevin asked us to cover Cratermaze, an early action puzzler for the console! And it's one Jeremy P even hadn't played before! Lees meer

    Also covered, jerks from video games, food that only a hobo would eat, and probably some more talk of Stardew Valley.

    Afspelen
    We didn't plan on covering two graphic adventures in a row, but both were patron requests, and this time Drew on Patreon has requested we play the Sega CD game, Rise of the Dragon! This cyberpunk detective game places you as Blade Hunter, sent to find out how and why the mayor's daughter was killed, and we found out - but should you? Listen to hear our thoughts. Lees meer

    Also discussed, maybe we all started Zelda TotK and Street Fighter 6 - or maybe we're all still playing Stardew Valley. Who knows? And of course, we take some listener mail.

    Want to move your cursor to the start of the episode? I'd try around the 11 minute mark.

    Aye, matey! We're gathered here at the SCUMM Bar in Melee Island to talk about a graphic adventure requested by one of you Patrons - The Secret of Monkey Island! Ported to Sega CD, this was originally a PC game that put you in the shoes of unlikely pirate, Guybrush Threepwood, and follows his quest to become a pirate and in the process defeat the evil ghost pirate LeChuck! If you like classic point and click adventure games, this may be well worth looking into - we'll tell you why! Lees meer

    We also pilfered a bounty of listener questions to discuss soundtracks, VR wishes, a little bit of food as always, and as you would expect - Donkey Kong's doodads.

    Afspelen
    As requested by patron Robert C. (find him at https://www.tiktok.com/@robertcarr75), we're taking a look at the NES version of Bionic Commando! A completely different game than the arcade game of the same name, Capcom made this a full adventure with equippable items, minor puzzles, and a much longer mission - but did this game's awkward mechanical arm work well in lieu of jumping? We're playing it again now to let you know if we think it did! Lees meer

    Also discussed, turning each other into retrogaming characters, fake video game OSTs, and our poor understanding of copyrights!

    This time on Retrovaniacs, we're taking on a Patron request to cover Red Earth, Capcom's "lost" arcade fighter that has recently been released on consoles on the Capcom Fighting Collection! Is this a game that we're lucky to try out finally after over 25 years, or was this better left as a footnote in their arcade catalog? Lees meer

    Grab your favorite chaps and cowboy hats - because we're taking on a game requested by Julian over on our Patreon, he's asked us to saddle up and play Red Dead Revolver, the 2004 prequel to Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption series. Does this game hit a bullseye, or is this game better off sent out to pasture? Lees meer

    Also this episode, Jeremy G is back and we've got a ton of listener mail about memorable game sounds, "meaningless" game landmarks, and of course probably some fairly embarassing personal admissions.

    We managed to get through over 150 episodes of the Retrovaniacs podcast without covering a Contra game - it's time to fix that. We talk about Contra on the NES on this episode, and why it's considered such a classic. Lees meer

  46. Episode 151 : Conker‘s Bad Fur Day (N64) / Conker Live and Reloaded (XBox)

    Our apparent love affair with Rare continues, as we look at another one of their offerings, Conker's Bad Fur Day. Originally released on the Nintendo 64, it was re-released later with some multiplayer addons for the XBox. Why would you play another cartoony looking 3d platformer? Maybe because this one, despite its looks, is clearly not for kids. Is that a good thing? We played it again to see! Lees meer

    The onslaught of listener mail continues, and we try to put a dent in it as well with some questions about remakes, gaming related violence, and honk honk honk honk.

    Want to get right to the game? Conker doesn't waste time, the game talk is right there at the start.

    We've hit episode 150 and we couldn't have picked a better game ourselves than Goldeneye 007 for the Nintendo 64- and we didn't have to, because this one was a patron request! Does Goldeneye hold up, or is this another older 3d title that really isn't worth playing today? Grab that awkward N64 controller, and join us to see what we thought. Lees meer

    We talk about our thoughts on the new Switch Expansion Pack and the additional N64 games that it provides for possibly a hefty fee, and we answer a ton of listener mail about retrogames, remasters of our own shows, and Jeremy P's good looks (and bad editing).

    Want to get right to the game? Bungee jump to about 11:30.

    As #Retroween2021 comes to a close, we're revisiting the small forgotten vacation town of Silent Hill for the 3rd year in a row. This time, we follow Heather Mason and her trip to the town that she was born in, although she can't remember much of the specifics... A direct sequel to the original Silent Hill, that also has a lot to do to match the marvel that was Silent Hill 2, how well does the third outing hold up today? We'll let you know what we think. Lees meer

    Also, we covered another huge chunk of listener mail, covering among other things: lesser known retro games, sexy fish, and local restaurants of our youth.

    Want to get right to the game? So did we-- just start listening!

    For our first episode of #Retroween2021, we're revisiting a series we haven't covered since 2017 -- we're looking at the Dreamcast entry in the Resident Evil franchise, Resident Evil: Code Veronica! This is one of the last games in the series to have the "Tank controls" that the original game did, and it was the first in the series on (what was at the time) a next generation console. This one hasn't had a remake yet-- is it one that should? Lees meer

    We also answer a TON of listener mail, so stick around to see if we answered yours!
