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 for the discussion of how a third-party developer crafts their own quirky vision of the Mushroom Kingdom, stay to hear a conspiracy theory about the existence of an evil Yoshi. Nate calls a character a "store-brand Wario," David has trouble with acronyms, and we read too deeply into an optional boss.
Nate, Sebastian, Ryan, and Andrea sit down to discuss POKEMON RED and BLUE, the first iteration of Nintendo's pop culture juggernaut. We talk about middle school, siblings being brought closer together through the power of trading Pokemon, and Tim Horton's-themed Pokemon. 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.
