Nate, David, and Jordan gather to discuss SUPER MARIO RPG: LEGEND OF THE SEVEN STARS, our last game of the 16-bit era and a parting of the ways for game developers Square and Nintendo.

Come to hear the debate over whether insect battling is really a thing, stay to hear which of your unlucky hosts spent their seventh-grade class trip to Toronto caring for a Tamagotchi instead of a Pikachu.
