    Episode 210 - Mina the Hollower

    07/06/2026 | 1h 12 mins.
    Time to go on a large adventure with a little mouse. Mina the Hollower, the newest game from Yacht Club Games is now out on all platforms. I was very lucky to receive a review copy of the game, and had the chance to sit down with Nick Woznick and David D'Angelo from the team. I really believe this game will be up there come awards season but remember this game is hard.....very hard.

    Episode 209 - Batman

    25/05/2026 | 40 mins.
    I am BATMAN. One of the best lines ever spoken, and today, I play the cape crusaders first appearance on the NES. I had heard this was a difficult game but I decided I wanted to have a challenge. The question is, did I finish this and beat the Joker? 

    This week, I am joined by Chris Coplien from the Retro Hangover podcast.

    Episode 208 - Super Mario 64

    14/05/2026 | 1h 26 mins.
    Super Mario 64, one of the biggest games of our generation. It brought us kicking and screaming into the 3D with one little plumber. Super Mario 64 has a huge fan base behind it and I hope this episode can do it justice. This week, I am joined by debutant, Tion, where we talk all sorts from Yoshi to speedrunning.

    Episode 207 - Mighty Final Fight

    28/04/2026 | 1h 6 mins.
    It is time for the final fight.....in chibi form. Yes, we are talking Mighty Final Fight for the NES. A game I never knew existed because it came so late in the NES' life. It is a demake if you will of the original final fight with a chibi art style and I won't lie, I love this game. Joining me this week, is Captain N from the Retrotopia podcast.
