    Brett and Westin get real wild this issue. These two are maniacs who deserve to live on a swamp somewhere. Anyways, this magazine includes Duck Tales, Dragon Warrior, Fester's Quest, NES Satellite, Game Boy, Howard & Nester. Actually, this is a really big episode for Howard & Nester. Shit goes down, that's all I'm going to say. They deserve to live on a swamp somewhere if you catch my drift? Put those two on a swamp and call it a day.

    Brett and Westin take down another boss of an issue of Nintendo Power. They discuss topics such as Mega Man II, Faxanadu, Dragon Warrior, a great Strider map, another Howard & Nester classic, we discuss a typo for like 12 minutes, Robocop, Duck Tales, and ponder what it would be like if Howard was Willy Wonka. I'm not going to put the Howard & Nester time stamp in this time because I'm 100% sure that was a waste of my time. I also had to look up whether percentage signs go before or after the number. I'm a real fool!!!

    Brett and Westin go nuts on this issue. I'm pretty sure the Howard & Nester deep dives are the best part of this podcast. You can just skip to 1:04:24 & 2:04:42 if you want. Otherwise the B-Train and W-Train go over many crazy things such as Ninja Gaiden, Strider, C.E.S. Electronics Show, Power Glove!!!!, Cobra Triangle, Bayou Billy, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and the grand Nintedo rewards!

    Westin and Brett open up these nice tight pages and go through a magical Nintendo journey. Going over Wrestling, Captain Nintendo, Zelda 2, Skate or Die, Howard and Nester take a turn to the sinister, some great marble talk, Operation Wolf is forgettable, more sports, Metal Gear, a cool Nintendo accessory, and that's about it. This descriptive enough for you Westin?
