Show Notes On this week's podcast, Dan and Kris bring you the latest installment in Stone age Standounts! This month, they're looking through the ColecoVision library to determine which 5 games best represent the platform. How does this unique platform stand the test of time? Are there any exclusive games to pull from? Let's find out! Then, in Week Old News, a bizarre Punch-Out!! prototype has been discovered, Final Fight MD deflates its own hype by embracing AI, PlayStation introduces Playerbase to a less than enthused playerbase, and you can now visit Taco Bell in Pokopia, because the internet is insane. Finally, in the Checkpoint, Kris continues to enjoy the joys of Super Mario Bros. Wonder's new DLC and tries out the new Time Breaker light guns. And if that sounds familiar, it's because he basically just lived the same week twice, at least in terms of what games he's played. Meanwhile, Dan loves Daredevil, finishes Minishoot Adventures, and drinks a very odd beer. Enjoy! See Our Faces!!!

Worum geht's: Um das erste offizielle Rocky-Videospiel zu demonstrieren, pilgerten die Pixelkino-Prügelknaben zur Stay Forever Convention Süd 2025 nach Karlsruhe: Der Kampf des Jahrhunderts zwischen dem »Austrian Stallion« und der »Fresse aus Hesse« fand dort live am ColecoVision statt. In dieser Podcast-Version des Spektakels könnt ihr alle sechs Runden miterleben. Anhand der Rocky-Filmserie schlagen wir uns durch drei Jahrzehnte Spielegeschichte – von kruden Arcade-Kloppereien (1976) bis zu den 3D-Rockys der PS2-Ära (2006). Der Film: Rocky III (1982) von Sylvester Stallone. Das Spiel: Rocky Super Action Boxing (1983) von Coleco. Pixelkino ist ein seit 2023 laufender Podcast von und mit Heinrich Lenhardt und Christian Genzel. Das Thema einer jeden Folge ist immer ein bekannter Film und die dazugehörige Spielumsetzung oder andersherum – bekanntes Spiel und dazugehörige Filmumsetzung. Mit dem Start von Staffel 3 wechselte das Pixelkino für mindestens eine Staffel (6 Folgen) ins Stay-Forever-Portfolio und wird exklusiv zweimonatlich für unsere Unterstützer und Unterstützerinnen auf Patreon/Steady ausgestrahlt. Das ist immer neues Material, keine Wiederveröffentlichung bisheriger Folgen.

Greetings, cave dwellers and retro gaming enthusiasts! Prepare to be transported back to a time when dinosaurs roamed the earth and pixelated graphics were cutting-edge technology. This episode of Play Comics is about to take you on a wild ride through the prehistoric world of BC's Quest for Tires and its bone-rattling sequel, BC II: Grog's Revenge. These ColecoVision gems, inspired by Johnny Hart's iconic newspaper strip BC, will have you pedaling your stone-wheeled unicycle faster than a Brontosaurus can say “Bronto-burger!” But wait, don't touch that dial (or scroll away from that podcast app)! We've got a special guest joining us on this Paleolithic adventure. It's none other than DC Dave from The Monitor Tapes, who's temporarily abandoned his own era to help us navigate through these Stone Age sidescrollers. Will we uncover the secrets of fire? Invent the wheel? Or just end up with calluses from furiously mashing those ColecoVision controller buttons? From dodging lava pits to outsmarting saber-toothed tigers, we'll explore every crevice and cave of these classic games. We might even answer burning questions like: “How does one steer a unicycle with square wheels?” and “Is collecting clams really the best use of a caveman's time?” So grab your club, don your finest animal print, and join us for an episode that's guaranteed to rock your world more than the invention of sliced mammoth! Learn such things as: Do newspaper comics still exist? How long can a single person continuously make a comic strip? Could be eventually get these old games released again but for phones? And so much more! You can find DC Dave on BlueSky @dcdavepodcast, and of course under his new podcast The Monitor Tapes on BlueSky @themonitortapes.
