Podcasts about Battletoads

Today, we're leaping into the outrageous world of Battletoads, Rare's 1991 beat-‘em-up that combined over-the-top action with punishing difficulty and a heavy dose of ‘90s attitude. We begin by exploring how Rare's founders reverse-engineered the Famicom to win over Nintendo, setting the stage for their prolific NES era. Then, we'll dive into the origins of Battletoads as a deliberate attempt to rival the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles—complete with edgy humor, gross-out names, and brutally creative levels. Finally, we'll chart the series' evolution across Game Boy, SNES, arcade, and modern reboots, and reflect on its cult legacy as one of gaming's most notoriously difficult franchises. So grab your speeder bike and brace yourself for the Turbo Tunnel on today's radical trip down Memory Card Lane! Find out more at https://a-trip-down-memory-card-lane.pinecast.co

In this week's episode of The Game Deflators Podcast, John and Ryan dive into some of the hottest gaming news and controversies. First, they break down the latest PlayStation Plus price hikes affecting over 20 different countries, discussing what this means for gamers. Is the subscription service still worth the cost? Next, they examine a recent study by Newzoo on video game microtransactions, exploring how in-game purchases shape player behavior and the gaming industry as a whole. Are microtransactions a necessary evil, or are they pushing the limits of what players are willing to spend? Finally, the duo takes a nostalgic trip back to the NES era with a review of Battletoads—a game notorious for its punishing difficulty. Does the cult classic still hold up, or is it best left in the past?   Articles covered: https://kotaku.com/pc-gaming-microtransactions-elden-ring-borderlands-4-1851775837     https://www.thegamer.com/playstation-plus-ps-plus-price-hikes/      Want more Game Deflators content?

David Wise nezačínal jako typický herní skladatel, do oboru se dostal vlastně trochu náhodou díky práci v hudebninách. Ale tak už to holt v osmdesátkách chodilo, že stačil talent, nadšení a občas i ta náhoda a během pár týdnů jste byli naplno v branži. Což nijak nesnižuje jeho zásluhy, které jsou obrovské. Známé jsou hlavně jeho melodie pro Donkey Kong Country, ale komponoval i hudbu do Wizards & Warriors, Battletoads a řady dalších her. Vlastně toho stihl za svou kariéru složit víc než řada jeho kolegů. Proto si jeho práci představíme blíže v tomto dílu podcastu Retro noty.

  Tonight we are reflecting on Solar Jetman: Hunt for the Golden Warpship, a 1990 physics-based, multi-directional space adventure co-developed by Zippo Games and Rare and published by Tradewest.    Zippo was best known for Ironsword, the sequel to the Rare's 1987 Wizards & Warriors. Rare had a solid relationship with publisher Tradewest releasing games together such as John Elway's Quarterback, Taboo the Sixth Sense and Battletoads.   Tonight our visiting Deacon is Jeff Gabor.  Send us a textThe miNEStry founders, Archbishop Dracul and Father Avram, seek to inspire their 8-bit parishioners through methodical and ceremonial scrutiny of the library of games on the Nintendo Entertainment System.

Many of us played with plastic "guys" when we were kids. Specifically action figures from our favorite cartoons and movies. This episode is all about the phenomenon of modern day companies like NECA, Super7, Storm Collectibles, Boss Fight Studios and others who are putting out insanely high quality figures of these same properties we loved as kids! Each host picked 2 lines of these TOYS OUTTA TIME to spotlight. Expect stuff like TMNT, Bucky O'Hare, Silverhawks, Battletoads, Herculoids, He-Man and more! Along for the ride we have a dear friend, Andy Zamon who, aside from being one of the most prolific figure collectors we know, is also the artist behind Z-3D Forge, which is THE place to go for your custom figure bases! ----------------------------------------Retro Ridoctopus is:• Parasite Steve (read)• 8-Bit Alchemy (listen) • Coopster Gold (join) • Nintenjoe (subscribe)----------------------------------------All original heavy metal music by Enchanted Exile

In this episode of Bring the Pain, I go back to my roots and highlight another video game system from my childhood. The Super Nintendo came out during a legendary time for my family, friends, and myself. From betting cash to marshmallow squares, my friend and I were definitely wilding, which gave us some of the best years of our lives. A lot of those years were also spent playing video games with my neither Tommy and my mom. So, for me, video games were always a way that my friends and I always found a way to connect with. I hope you enjoy this episode and all of it's Because this episode features a lot of VGM music, I'm going to keep my comments to a minimum so that you can relax while being taken on a journey to Planet painbringer. Have a great day, everyone, and may the VGM be with you.Thank you for the support and contributions all of you make for my podcasts and articles each week.

What do you get when you take some of the most diverse gameplay mechanics to ever exist in an 8-bit title, sprinkle it with some product merchandising wishful thinking, and turn the difficulty up to 11?  The answer to that question is Battletoads, one of the more famous, and some would say infamous, games ever released for the Nintendo Entertainment System.  Learn how the game was made, discover why it was designed to be so brutally difficult, and listen in as we figure out whether it's still worth your time to take on the game's challenges, even today!

I haven't played a bad Star Wars game yet, and Super Star Wars is probably a top 3 for me at this point. I love this game! It scratches every itch I have. It's an SNES game. It's fun. It's tough as balls. It plays great. Aside form that damned Sandcrawler, I don't know if I have a single complaint! Just don't expect me to talk about the last third of the game, because I can't get that far... My go to guest for all things Star Wars is my pal Tyler, and we had a chat about why this game is so good, despite being so tough. And we did it WHILE I was playing the game and setting a new personal best for how long I could last without dying! And before we put go to war with the stars, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks me what I would do if I could make any video game, anyway I want. What games would I make harder if I could? And should Mario Kart continue to include auto-steer options in future iterations? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 tough as balls SNES games: Battletoads in Battlemaniacs, The Lion King, and Super Ghouls N Ghosts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In a RARE moment, The Legacy Music Hour had back to back composer focus episodes, which also happened to feature exclusive interviews with said composers.  This episode focuses on famed video game composer David Wise!  David is famous for many game soundtracks, including the Donkey Kong Country series, Battletoads, and much more.  His own distinct style stands out amongst his

X-Men 97, Borderlands, Godzilla x Kong, Challengers, Battletoads, Epic Mickey, Killer Klowns from Outer Space, and more!

Level three of my accessibility in gaming series is a rare treat, because I speak to none other than Topher Winward. Topher Winward is a software engineer and developer at Rare formerly Rareware. Rare is the studio responsible for such iconic video games like Banjo Kazooie, Donkey Kong Country, Perfect Dark, Goldeneye 007, Battletoads, and Jet Force Gemini. As a kid who grew up in the 90s and early 2000s, and spent most of his time playing on the Nintendo 64. I cannot begin to express how much my interview with Topher Winward meant to me. It is amazing to see how even though I have continued to lose my vision that I still am capable of playing games developed by Rare. This is due to the committment Rare has taken as a studio to ensuring that their games are accessible. I had so much fun learning about how Sea of Thieves ended up featuring so many accessibility features. Additionally, I found it so interesting how Topher found himself at the helm of the ship steering accessibility in Sea of Thieves alongside his amazing colleagues. This episode of the podcast was originally recorded last year in August.

This week, the band is back together (same joke as the opening of the podcast) and The Gamers try to make sense of the conclusion of the Billy Mitchell vs. Twin Galaxies Donkey Kong High Score sage.

Show Notes That's it, folks. The final Stone Age Starter Kit is done. After years of asking the question, we finally ask it for the last time. If you had $100 to start a physical Xbox One collection, which games should you get? Of course, ending on Xbox One maybe wasn't the best idea because neither Dan nor Kris have extensive knowledge on the console and its library, but they tried their best, gosh darn it! Even though Kri still can't stop coughing.Apologies for that. Regardless, the Xbox One has an interesting game library, and a number of physical releases that made for an interesting conversation. Or at least we hope so. At the top of the show, Dan and Kris talk a bit about their Thanksgiving holidays, and their Black Friday shopping experiences, or lack thereof. There weren't a lot of deep discounts out in the world this year, and nobody seemed interested in getting trampled for a good price on a new TV. They also discussed some hate mail they got recently, because nothing brightens up one's day quite like a stranger on the internet letting you know how much they hate you. (Seriously, the term “woke Battletoads” was used.) Also, Super Mario RPG is great. Enjoy!

In 2011-2012, the gaming world was in flux. While iconic figures like Sonic celebrated milestones, the industry grappled with newfound freedoms and responsibilities, thanks to the landmark Supreme Court ruling in Brown vs. Entertainment Merchants Association. This decision affirmed video games as expressive art, prompting developers to venture into uncharted territories. Meanwhile, controversies swirled, from the PlayStation Network hack in retaliation to Sony's lawsuit against George 'Geohotz' Hotz, to EA's contentious "Project Ten Dollar" and the emergence of loot boxes. Amid this, Epic Games unveiled Fortnite, hinting at future trends. 2012 saw Sony's PlayStation Vita and Nintendo's Wii U launch, with both navigating murky waters. The Vita battled its identity amidst the mobile gaming surge and the cross-buy initiative's challenges, while the Wii U grappled with marketing missteps. Yet, as consoles stumbled, PC gaming surged, and esports, bolstered by Twitch's rise, began its mainstream march. This period encapsulated the industry's transformative journey, marked by innovation, challenges, and the reshaping of gaming's cultural footprint.Featured Games:The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Zelda: Skyward Sword, Portal 2, Dark Souls, Beyond Good & Evil, Halo Reach, Mass Effect 3, Battle Toads, Max Payne 3, Journey, FTL: Faster Than Light, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, The Walking Dead, & Halo 4. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★ (00:00) - Episode 9 (00:06) - 2011 (27:22) - 2012 Thanks to our monthly supporters FS Tabreez Siddique Mynx Mopman43 Ritsu William Kage Studio Devil Dallay_g Razu John H The Golden Bolt MykonosFan ErbBetaPatched Vornak Killer Space Serra Mr. Lindsay Autocharth History With Kayleigh Benjamin Steele Nick Makris minimme

[School of Everything Else 2023] The greatest brawler series in the history of video games. If you haven't yet had the pleasure of playing one of the four Streets of Rage, even if beat-'em-ups aren't your thing you owe it to yourself to investigate the sheer *craft* of these classics.  Beginning with the original in 1991 and refined to magnificence with the second in 1992. They need to be looked at in conjunction with their contemporaries like Double Dragon (1987) the excellent Final Fight (1989) and Turtles in Time (1992) as well as looking forward down the chain of influence to Scott Pilgrim (2010), Fight'N Rage (2017) the recent Battletoads (2020) and the sublime TURTs nerdgasm Shredder's Revenge (2022). As we go through the history of how these were made, by surprisingly small teams with focus on sound design, music, rhythm and variety a picture is formed of a creative ethic. They're also colossal fun!  That is until you hit the North American release of Streets of Rage 3 (1994) which becomes a nightmare slog. We explain what went so horribly wrong there. But you can skip right past that one and move on to the pinnacle of not only the series but the genre; the modern-day masterpiece that is Streets of Rage 4 (2020).
