Well, it's time for part two (of three!) of our background information blast for Skies of Arcade. To become legends, we're detailing Skies of Arcadia's promotional media, finding a romantic and unreadable font, changing our reputation, kicking ass by the boatload, debating the pronunciation of "Valuan," riddling the skies with danger, adapting the story into manga, producing a $460 figurine, selling an elaborate music box, desiring a Skies of Arcadia candle, recruiting up to 22 crew members, censoring content for the ESRB, and begging you not to put this Dreamcast disc into your CD player. Everyone will respect you. 00:00:00 Patreon Promo 00:01:19 Intro 00:03:14 Commercials 00:06:20 Print Ads 00:14:57 Strategy Guide + Manga 00:20:17 Light Novel 00:22:47 Radio Drama 00:25:25 Toys 00:27:10 Soundtrack(s) 00:29:00 Demo Disc 00:31:52 Dreamcast Game Box 00:39:24 GameCube Game Box 00:43:41 Cut Content 00:49:25 Real Net 00:54:01 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com
What's up, dudes? Now that Masters of the Universe is out in theaters, we're gonna have a watch-along party for the Filmation classic “He-Man and She-Ra: A Christmas Special”. I've got Mike Westfall from Advent Calendar House, Jeff Loftin from Lost Christmas podcast, Anthony Caruso from ‘Tis the Podcast, and Chad Young from Horror Movie BBQ with me to provide commentary and enjoy the ride!The Filmation special begins with Orko accidentally blasting off in the Sky Spy and crash-landing on Earth, where he meets Miguel and Alisha. Before long, the kids and their Christmas tree are transported back to Eternia, and Horde Prime decides the Christmas spirit is dangerous enough to require immediate villainous intervention. Naturally, Skeletor and Hordak both want the reward.The joy of the episode is watching the cosmic toy-commercial universe collide with sincere Christmas messaging. He-Man and She-Ra punch through danger, the villains compete, the kids explain Christmas, and Skeletor discovers that warmth, puppies, and holiday goodwill might be harder to resist than Castle Grayskull itself.Orko in a spaceship? Check. Earth kids stranded on Eternia? Got 'em. Skeletor not being nice or kind or wonderful? Not even! Even! So raise your Power Sword, hop on Swift Wind, and celebrate Christmas across dimensions with this He-Man & She-Ra episode!Advent Calendar HouseFB: @adventcalendarhouseTwitter: @adventcalhouseIG: @adventcalendarhouseLost Christmas PodcastFB: @LostChristmasPodcastTwitter: @LostChristmasP1IG: @lostchristmaspodcast'Tis the PodcastFB: @tisthepodcastTwitter: @tisthepodIG: @tisthepodcastFB Group: Tis the Podcast GroupHorror Movie BBQFB: @HorrorMovieBBQTwitter: @HorrorMovieBBQIG: @horrormoviebbqGive us a buzz!

En el episodio 308 de Rejugando, RaffaValencia conduce un programa cargado de debate, hype y vinagre junto a Eva Farto y Anya Silva. El equipo repasa el último Nintendo Direct de junio de 2026, cerrando por fin la maratón de conferencias del “E3 moderno” entre Summer Game Fest, Xbox Showcase y State of Play. Un Nintendo Direct con luces y sombras El gran titular del evento fue el anuncio oficial de "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake" para Nintendo Switch 2. Aunque el juego era un secreto a voces tras múltiples filtraciones, el debate en Rejugando gira alrededor de una pregunta clave: ¿por qué Nintendo enseñó tan poco? El tráiler apenas mostró a Link durmiendo y el logo del juego, lo que provocó una mezcla de emoción y frustración en la mesa. Anya Silva defendió que el anuncio era necesario y simbólico para cerrar el evento, mientras que RaffaValencia criticó duramente que un remake tan importante no tuviera ni gameplay ni fecha concreta, pese a estar anunciado para 2026. Además, el programa especula con una posible salida navideña del remake, incluso fantaseando con un lanzamiento cercano al aniversario de Nintendo 64. Kingdom Hearts IV reaparece… por sorpresa en Nintendo Otro de los momentos más comentados fue el regreso de Kingdom Hearts IV. Tras cuatro años de silencio desde su anuncio original, Square Enix mostró un nuevo vistazo al juego durante el Direct. El tráiler enseñó algo más de gameplay y confirmó lanzamiento en Nintendo Switch 2, además de PS5 y Xbox. Xenoblade Genesis: el juego que sí supo venderse El verdadero ganador del Nintendo Direct fue Xenoblade Genesis, el nuevo RPG de Monolith Soft. El juego mostró mundo, personajes, ambientación y un espectacular tráiler de ciencia ficción, dejando una impresión mucho más potente que el propio Zelda. El programa también celebra las actualizaciones gratuitas/mejoradas de Xenoblade Chronicles 1, 2 y 3 para Switch 2, con mejoras técnicas y nuevo impulso para una de las sagas favoritas de la casa. Fire Emblem, Orbitales catálogo de Switch 2 Entre los anuncios destacados también se comentan: Fire Emblem: Fortune Wave, nuevo táctico de Nintendo con lanzamiento el 17 de septiembre. Las llegadas a Switch 2 de Dragon’s Dogma 2, Onimusha, Lies of P, Stellar Blade y otros ports third party. El nuevo recopilatorio Kingdom Hearts 1.5 + 2.5 + 2.8 + 3 + ReMind, que vuelve a reunir toda la saga en una sola edición. Pero aquí aparece uno de los grandes debates del programa: ¿es suficiente este catálogo para justificar comprar Nintendo Switch 2 ahora mismo? RaffaValencia se muestra muy crítico con la estrategia de Nintendo, argumentando que muchos anuncios son ports de juegos ya disponibles en otras plataformas y que faltan títulos exclusivos realmente rompedores. Eva Farto, en cambio, recuerda que para quien solo tiene consola Nintendo, el Direct sí ofrece una avalancha de juegos importantes. La "guerra de pulgares" y el momento más surrealista del evento Uno de los momentos más divertidos del podcast llega al hablar de Nintendo Switch Sports Resort y su nuevo minijuego de “guerra de pulgares”. La imagen de Yoshiaki Koizumi jugando seriamente una batalla de pulgares con los Joy-Con 2 se convierte en running gag del episodio. “la decadencia de la humanidad en su máximo exponente Final Fantasy, Game Key Cards y más vinagre El programa también entra en el terreno polémico con Final Fantasy: Resonance, el nuevo RPG HD-2D basado en Brave Exvius. La recepción es tibia: ilusión por el estilo visual, pero dudas por tratarse de una adaptación de un gacha móvil. Además, se carga duramente contra el formato Game Key Card de Nintendo Switch 2, criticando que algunos juegos físicos no incluyan el contenido completo en el cartucho. Todo esto con las ultimas noticias de despidos en Ubisoft, las ultimas entrevistas de Asha Sharma, la polemica de la IA en Kingdom Hearts y más Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

Parmi les 25 milliards d'euros annuels alloués au budget de la culture, moins d'un tiers irrigue réellement les territoires. Depuis quarante ans, le ministère, ses DRAC et ses technocrates parisiens promeuvent une culture hors-sol centraliste. Il est temps de passer à l'offensive. Le Puy du Fou (2,5 millions de visiteurs, 96 % autofinancé), Nadau qui remplit le Palais des Congrès sans France Inter, le succès de la Feria d'Arles et du festival photos de la Gacilly, quelle que soit l'étiquette de leurs maires, montrent bien qu'une autre politique est possible. La vraie fracture n'est pas partisane au sens du clivage gauche-droite, mais bien idéologique : entre ceux qui transmettent une civilisation vivante et ceux qui la diluent, entre ceux qui rassemblent et élèvent le peuple par le Beau et les fossoyeurs de tout cadre éthique et esthétique commun au motif que tout serait culture. Donc plus rien ne l'est.Reste encore à définir clairement ce que serait une véritable politique culturelle enracinée. Car la culture-gadget, propre à la société de consommation, domine, et il devient de plus en plus difficile de savoir ce qui relève de l'accessoire de la réelle culture, enracinée par définition.Cette nécessité obligera enfin le camp identitaire et patriote à entrer dans l'arène, où il devra prouver que ses intentions ne relèvent pas d'un attachement poussiéreux et réactionnaire aux vieilles pierres, mais bien d'une architecture pour l'avenir, solidement ancrée dans les fondations pluriséculaires de l'Europe.Viendra alors le temps de l'action. Oser prendre des initiatives dans un contexte hostile où, il faut le dire, la droite manque singulièrement d'audace, d'imagination et de curiosité. Sans parler d'une stratégie.Nous mettrons sur la table un certain nombre de sujets : les alliances culturelles au-delà des étiquettes : reniement ou intelligence ? La multiplication des initiatives (Les Murmures de la Cité, l'association Arcade, les festivals de musiques traditionnelles) : les coordonner ou les laisser essaimer ? Face au harcèlement de la gauche (pétitions, retraits de subventions, intimidations) : contre-attaquer ou contourner ? Les outils disponibles (DRAC, 1 % artistique, mécénat, budgets municipaux) : les réformer ou simplement s'en emparer ?Ensemble, nous mènerons un débat concret sur les possibilités réelles qui s'offrent à nous dans les champs locaux, nationaux et européens. De quoi esquisser, peut-être, un véritable manuel de combat culturel. Pour en discuter, nous recevons deux spécialistes de ces questions :Marguerite Frison-Roche : diplômée de Sciences Po, de la Sorbonne et de la Scala de Milan, et fondatrice du think tank Disruptif. Elle travaille sur la réforme des politiques culturelles par les institutions, et plaide pour réinvestir l'échelon local comme levier décisif.Hubert Calmettes : spécialiste du marketing de l'offre, essayiste, contributeur d'Éléments et de Polémia, intervenant aux colloques de l'Institut Iliade, il plaide pour une autre voie : assumer une contre-culture, reconquérir le peuple par une offre dissidente forte, sans attendre que les institutions bougent. Il est l'auteur du Guide marketing de la dissidence aux éditions de La Nouvelle Librairie.Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.
Nuevo episodio de Rejugando dedicado por completo al Summer Game Fest 2026 y al Xbox Showcase 2026, dos eventos que para Raffa, Mario Rey, Marcos, Eva, José Anya y Graffic han dejado una de las semanas más fuertes del videojuego en muchísimo tiempo. El programa se convierte en un repaso enorme a anuncios, sorpresas, debates y primeras impresiones de una avalancha de juegos que ha dejado cientos de titulares. Uno de los grandes protagonistas del episodio es Resident Evil Verónica, el inesperado regreso de Capcom que abre el Summer Game Fest y que provoca buena parte del debate del programa. Hablamos de la situación actual de Capcom, del legado de Resident Evil Code Veronica, y de cómo la saga sigue viviendo uno de los momentos más fuertes de toda su historia. El Xbox Showcase también deja varios pesos pesados sobre la mesa. Analizamos extensamente Fable y su nuevo material mostrado, el futuro de Gears of War: E-Day, las sensaciones que deja Clockwork Revolution y la conversación alrededor de Perfect Dark, State of Decay 3 y el rumbo actual de Xbox. También hay tiempo para hablar de Game Pass, del cambio de estrategia de Microsoft y de cómo se está construyendo el catálogo para los próximos años. El programa dedica además un bloque importante a Persona 4 Revival, uno de los anuncios más celebrados entre los aficionados al JRPG. Se compara con Persona 3 Reload y con Persona 5, y se debate el momento que vive Atlus tras el éxito de Metaphor: ReFantazio. La locura continúa con nombres enormes apareciendo durante las conferencias y durante los rumores alrededor de ellas: Final Fantasy VII Revelation, la tercera parte del Remake es uno de los platos principales También hay espacio para algunas de las sorpresas que más llaman la atención del equipo como Valor Mortis, comparaciones con Lies of P y Steelrising, el impacto visual de algunas nuevas IP y el enorme número de videojuegos presentes durante el verano. Entre Summer Game Fest y Xbox Showcase el programa transmite una sensación constante: pocos años recientes recuerdan a una concentración tan grande de anuncios, regresos y proyectos capaces de dominar la conversación durante meses. Un episodio de Rejugando para quienes quieran ponerse al día con todo lo importante del Summer Game Fest y Xbox Showcase, descubrir qué juegos han generado más ilusión y escuchar un análisis tranquilo de Resident Evil Verónica, Fable, Persona 4 Revival, Gears of War: E-Day, Final Fantasy VII Remake Parte III, Persona 6 y muchos más. como Resident Evil: Veronica, Final Fantasy VII: Revelation, Persona 6, Fable, Gears of War: E-Day, Halo: Campaign Evolved, Alien: Isolation 2, gen ATLAS, Stranger Than Heaven, Mortal Shell II, Chronicles: Medieval, Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, , End of Abyss, Mouse: P.I. for Hire, , Marvel Cosmic Invasion, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, ARC Raiders, Dune: Awakening, Chrono Odyssey, Mio: Memories in Orbit, Out of Words, TMNT: The Last Ronin, The Wolf Among Us 2, Star Wars: Zero Company, Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance, Control Resonant, God of War: Laufey, Marvel's Wolverine, Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, Grounded 2.

Mariam Naficy is the founder and chairman of Minted — the online marketplace where independent artists around the world sell everything from cards to wall art to home decor. She's also the founder and CEO of Arcade, an AI platform reimagining how physical products get designed and made.But before any of that, Mariam was the child of immigrants who fled Iran after the revolution and rebuilt their lives from scratch. Watching her family lose everything left her, by age ten, with one conviction: she would have to take care of herself. That drive carried her through Goldman Sachs and Stanford — where she became one of the only MBAs in her class to skip the corporate path and bet on herself, back when entrepreneurship wasn't really a thing.In 1998, she co-founded Eve.com, one of the first online beauty retailers — back when investors told her women would never buy makeup online. It sold for over $100 million, just two weeks before the dot-com crash. Years later, she launched Minted. And it nearly broke her. Zero sales for months. Critics who dismissed the idea. A newborn at home. And the fear that her first big win had just been luck. The turnaround came when she stopped guessing, and started asking artists and customers what they actually wanted — and built one of the earliest creator-economy success stories.In this episode, Mariam shares how fleeing Iran shaped her relationship with risk and money, what her mother meant when she said "beat all the boys," and why she bet on herself with no family history in business. We get into building Eve in the earliest days of e-commerce, selling a company before 30, and the darkest stretch of Minted — when she was ready to give her investors their money back. She tells us how she got through those dark times, the mindset that kept her going, and the advice she'd give other founders. She also opens up about motherhood, self-doubt, the pivot that saved the company, and what she's building now with Arcade.In this episode, we'll talk to Mariam about:* How fleeing Iran shaped her relationship with risk and financial independence. [03:24]* Why financial security became a driving force. [04:20]* Choosing entrepreneurship over the traditional corporate ladder. [05:20]* Being one of the only Stanford MBA graduates to start a company in 1998. [06:21]* Writing and publishing a book to stand out and fund her education. [10:58]* Convincing a future co-founder to leave New York and build a company together. [14:19]* Launching one of the first online beauty retailers before e-commerce was mainstream. [15:49]* Raising $26 million as first-time founders. [17:59]* Selling the company just before the dot-com crash changed everything. [21:54]* Navigating the emotional comedown after early success. [23:42]* The lessons she learned between her first startup and launching Minted. [26:44]* Facing the darkest moments of entrepreneurship when Minted struggled to gain traction. [30:19]* Navigating motherhood while scaling a fast-growing company. [40:14]* Stepping away from the CEO role to prioritize family during a pivotal season. [44:37]* Building Arcade and using AI to reimagine product creation and manufacturing. [45:33]* The biggest mistakes founders make when starting a business. [48:21]* What she looks for when hiring future leaders and long-term team members.

The only way to build the next big thing is to stop trying to copy the last one. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with David Vonderhaar, studio lead at Bullet Farm and former studio design director for the Call of Duty franchise, to unpack what it really takes to innovate in a world obsessed with replication. From navigating harsh feedback from passionate audiences to building a studio from the ground up after two decades inside a billion-dollar franchise, David shares the mindset, courage, and conviction required to do things on your own terms. This is a conversation about originality, resilience, and the cost of choosing the harder path. Here's what you'll learn: Why true breakthroughs come from being original, not from copying what's already working How to keep teams engaged under pressure without burning them out What it takes to bet on yourself when walking away from a sure thing If you want to build something that lasts, you have to be willing to build it before anyone else believes in it.

The Three's Company apartment lease is up and it's time to move out and move on in the only way we know how - with an Arcade Obscura on underrated or obscure three-player arcade games! The first pick is so undefineable that Jarrod had to create a new word for the genre. The next pick gives us gore and bad line deliveries to go with our beat 'em up. The last pick takes a famous character, gives them two new friends, and has you do things with them that have never been tried again. We also talk about the recent UFO dump, the new Mortal Kombat 2 movie, and answer what things from the arcade hobby scene would we like to transfer to our real jobs.

Send us Fan MailA single quarter on an arcade cabinet used to mean something. It meant you were next, you were staying, and you were about to prove it in front of everybody. We chase that feeling from the jump, starting with a Mortal Kombat movie check-in and sliding straight into a real debate about the best fighting games of all time: Street Fighter, Tekken, classic combos, and why some games got “worse” once the super strings took over. If you love retro gaming, arcade nostalgia, and the culture around classic video games, this one turns into a time machine fast. From there we zoom out into the whole era: Pac-Man at the laundromat, Donkey Kong patterns, Tetris obsession, Contra codes, and the wild speed run of consoles from Atari and Intellivision to Nintendo, Sega Genesis, PlayStation, Dreamcast, and Xbox. We also get into why gaming felt more social back then and why today's online party chat still isn't the same as a room full of people waiting their turn with quarters in hand. And because we can't stay in one lane, we pivot into sports talk and the way the NFL schedule release can swallow an entire night. Then it gets real: pickup basketball, old heads versus young legs, clock management, ball movement, and the one athletic ability we'd keep forever as we age. We close with Netflix recommendations, guilty-pleasure scripted drama, and a quick run through movies we're ready to see next. If you enjoyed the laughs and the nostalgia, subscribe, share this with a friend who lived at the arcade, and leave us a review.

AI can write your design doc. It can build your storyboard. It can draft your script, your rubric, your assessment, your video outline, and half of your e-learning module before lunch. So what's left for the instructional designer?According to Jonathan De La Cruz, everything that actually matters.Jonathan is an instructional designer at a supply chain company and at a Plano, Texas startup building an AI-assisted learning management system. But before all of that, he was a music educator. He worked at DePauw University and Indiana University. He played mariachi on weekends, jazz combos, cathedral gigs, Costa Rican punk reggae, full symphonies. He didn't know "instructional designer" was a job title. He just knew he loved video editing, building websites, and figuring out how learning actually happens.In this conversation, Jonathan and I talk about the parts of instructional design AI is genuinely making faster and the parts no model will ever touch. The language you use when you collaborate. The way you receive feedback. The relationships you build before you ever press record on a training. The reason someone will or won't watch what you built.Jonathan also breaks down the custom AI agent he trained on his reviewers' feedback patterns to cut his iteration cycles from version 5 down to version 2. He shares how he manages a tech stack that includes Articulate, Camtasia, Arcade, Figma Make, Claude Code, Gemini, NotebookLM, and Perplexity, and why he just bought a Claude Code membership last week.If you're an instructional designer wondering where you still fit, an educator thinking about transitioning into ID, or anyone trying to figure out what the human in the loop actually does, this episode is for you.

What's up, dudes? We had a blast covering the last few movies, so we're continuing our live commentary series! This time we're breaking into TV Specials, and we had to start with the Rankin Bass classic that launched it all: Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer! Jeff Loftin from Lost Christmas podcast, Jeremy Phelps the Alamo City Santa, and I have a blast with this watch along! The story chronicles the experiences of Rudolph, a youthful reindeer buck who possesses an unusual luminous red nose. Mocked and excluded by his peers because of this trait, Rudolph proves himself one Christmas Eve with poor visibility due to inclement weather. After Santa Claus catches sight of Rudolph's nose and asks Rudolph to lead his sleigh for the evening, Rudolph agrees and is finally favored by his fellow reindeer for his heroism and accomplishment.Grumpy Santa? Check. Complete tooth extraction? Yep. Flying lion creature? Maybe he's from an alternate dimension! So grab your pickaxe and float down to this episode on Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer!Lost Christmas PodcastFB: @LostChristmasPodcastTwitter: @LostChristmasP1IG: @lostchristmaspodcastIG: @alamocitysanta Etsy: North Pole General Store FB: @northpolegeneralstore IG: @northpole_generalstore Give us a buzz!
