Ep8 - Price is Retro HARD MODE, Animal Crossing City Folk

 

What is Crossplay? And how does it work?

Every podcast needs a gimmick or "feature" to keep listeners interested and to shake things up a bit. It also helps differentiate us so you don't feel like you're listening to the same thing over and over again. Introducing Crossplay! A twist on the typical "we play a game every week and you play too and we talk about it" format.

Playing Pikmin for Gamecube - 18 Years Later

By December 2, 2001 The name Shigeru Miyamoto was already infamous. The creator of Donkey Kong, Super Mario, and Zelda had firmly cemented himself as the father of modern gaming. And though some would argue that Super Mario 64 back in 1996 was his last great innovation leading up to 2001, needless to say we were all waiting with bated breath for what would come next. And with intrigue, mystery, and some slight disappointment... Pikmin was born.

The New Dad Gamer: Bonding with Player 3

Before Nathan was born, I had a very narrow idea of what having a kid was like. I imagined playing Super Mario Bros. with my little guy, teaching him how to solve a Zelda puzzle, decorating his room with plush Metroids and Pikechus etc...

I was only part right. Spoiler alert, babies don't play video games. If you give a baby a Joy-Con, It will likely end up in his/her mouth. Which is not where they belong. However, there are plenty of ways the junior can join in the fun.

Yoshi Kong Adventure: The game that never existed.

There is a game that never existed, but only in my, and my older brother's, minds. This game was called Yoshi Kong Adventure. It brought together two Nintendo characters that must have been separated at birth, considering how much their worlds have in common. Or so our pre-teen minds thought.

We imagined a rich high seas sailing quest with multiple continents to explore. We even drew the cover art for what would have been a GameCube game. But alas, Nintendo didn't think our idea had sea legs. And so here lies an idea that never left concept.

but it sure is fun to think about!
