This was like visiting an old friend, albeit an old friend that'll shank you into the rough and screw you over every chance it gets. By today's standards, Hot Shots probably seems a little archaic. It's the classic 3-click system, the graphics are, well, PSOne graphics, and the gameplay can be brutally unforgiving. But look beyond that and what you have is the ground work for a series that so many people have fallen in love with over the years. I wouldn't necessarily say I prefer these to Mario Golf, but there's an argument for sure. My guest this week is the official referee of RTG, Mike The Ref. We both love sports games, and as such, both love Hot Shots Golf. We talk about how tough this game can be, how far the genre has come, and of course, the legendary Hot Shots multiplayer. And before we tee off, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks about Nintendo's consumer-unfriendly practices (which I agree with). Where do I stand on Canadian teams in the Stanley Cup Playoffs?? And yes, I address the new Ecco the Dolphin game. Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 old-school golf games: Lee Trevino's Fighting Golf, NES Open, and Kirby's Dream Course. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
We kick off the show with Ryan making questionable financial decisions, coupled with the fact that Xbox is raising prices across the board. Then we move into recapping our time in Fortnite for a Star Wars themed Extra Life event.

In the news, Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed until May 26th, 2026 and has a new trailer, Epic offers an olive branch to Apple, Polygon has been sold to Valnet, EB Games is back (in Canada), and Gears of War arrives on PlayStation this Summer.

Patreon.com/RememberTheGame The first game I bought with my own money was Kirby's Dream Land. I beat that same night and I was crushed. but ever since then, I've enjoyed every Kirby game I've played. And after 100%ing Kirby 64, I'm starting to think maybe I've forgiven that little puff ball. Kirby 64 might not be my favourite Kirby game, but it's pretty solid. Being able to combine enemy abilities is the secret sauce for sure, and when you add in some King Dedede alliance levels, the occasional mine cart level, some solid boss fights, and the fact that you can play this one with the d-pad which negates that stupid controller, you get a damned good platformer. My guest this week is PENDING Hall of Famer, Mark McCue. We've been looking for a project to do together for a while (shoutout to anyone that gets that reference), and we both had a good time with 64 Kirbys. And neither of us is ashamed to admit we had a little trouble at times, too. OK we are ashamed, but we still admit it. And before we eat, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, I address my Switch 2 acquisition situation. Do I buy old games purely based on nostalgia? And are there any games I hate that I wish I loved?? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 'B-Tier' Nintendo 64 exclusives: StarFox 64, F-Zero X, and Yoshi's Story. Learn more about your ad choices.

I think it (along with the rest of the GameCube wrestling games) get overshadowed by the SmackDown series, but if you grew up playing the N64 holy grail titles, you have to play this one. Day of Reckoning's controls feel like the next-step from games like WCW/nWo Revenge and WWF No Mercy. Simple enough for anyone to pick up, but there's enough depth there for us die-hards to really sink our teeth into. Add in a decent roster and a solid career mode, and you have all the ingredients for at LEAST a four-star match. My guest this week is the official referee of RTG, Mike The Ref. We both love wrestling, love wrestling games, and really like Day of Reckoning. Some minor gripes and I explain why I prefer SmackDown, but all in all DoR is a must-play for any Ruthless Aggression era junkies. And before we ring the bell, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks bout the logic behind our scoring system. How do I feel about Wreck-It Ralph? And I give some one-handed game suggestions to a hot dog with a bad wing. Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

Patreon.com/RememberTheGame XCOM 2 has been lurking near the top of my "someday I'll play it" list for years, and I finally puled the trigger (no pun intended). After over 70 hours of sitting at my PC fighting aliens, I can safely say that XCOM 2 isn't just one of the best tactical RPGs I've ever played, but one of the best games I've ever played, period. If you've never played it, XCOM 2 is a tactical RPG, like Fire Emblem or Final Fantasy Tactics. You move your soldiers around on a board game-esque grid, and take turns with the computer, who's doing the same with aliens and robots. But in between missions, you're traveling the world gathering resources and using them to upgrade both your troops and your ship. Aliens have taken over the planet, and it's up to you to take it back. It's a little tough to pick up out of the gate, but once you're over the hump, it's addictive as hell. My guest this week is the winner of our Extra-Life charity auction from last December, Robert. He picked this game and now I can see why. We get into the meat of XCOM 2, talk about the superb War of the Chosen DLC, talk about our favourite soldier/ability/equipment combinations, and laugh at the bulshit that is missing a 94% shot with your ass on the line. And before we save the world, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, we HAVE to talk a little Switch 2. How am I feeling about WrestleMania this year? And will OG Switch games be discounted after the Switch 2 drops? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

Patreon.com/RememberTheGame And you can check out Daniel's streams at: Twitch.tv/stpd_mnky People have been telling me to review Donkey Kong '94 for years, and with Nintendo finally adding it to the Switch Online library, I figured 'why not?' And I'll tell ya, damned if this isn't one of the best games in the entire Game Boy library. A hidden gem among hidden gems. DK '94 is more than just a Game Boy version of the OG Donkey Kong. It starts that way, but they add like 100 additional puzzle levels once you get through the traditional 4. You play as Mario and your objective is to retrieve a key and make your way to a locked door without being killed by enemies, falling to your death, or running out of time. The levels get more complicated as you go on, and when you toss in some great DK boss fights, you get as charming of puzzle game as I've ever played. My guest this week is our resident Stpd Mnky, my buddy Daniel. We both played through this one for the first time over the past few days and both agree that it really does stack up against the best the Game Boy has to offer. A must-play as far as we're concerned. And before we tackle DK, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks what gaming might look like 10 years from now? How am I feeling about Game Pass these days? And do I have any plans to check out the Outlast movie?? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

Patreon.com/RememberTheGame As an SNES kid, I'm still a noob when it comes to the Sega Genesis library. I've played some GREAT games on the Genesis over the life of this show, and I'm happy to add Comix Zone to that list. Looks awesome. Great concept. And tough as fuck. I say it all the time, but I love tough retro games. Just hearing the phrase 'NES tough' turns me on a little. And Comix Zone is along those lines. This might be the toughest Genesis game I've ever played, and I keep coming back for more. I'm rolling solo this week, but I snuck a bunch of listener comments into the game review. If you've never played Comix Zone, I hope this convinces you to give it a shot. Don't let the difficulty scare you off. It's a beat 'em up, inside a comic book. And the protagonist looks like Egon. What else do you need??? And before I start reading comics, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks what I would do it I had the green light to revive a dormant franchise in a new genre? Which IPs would make great tactical games?? And how do I manage my backlog?? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 Sega Genesis comic book games: The Adventures of Batman & Robin, Spider-Man & Venom: Maximum Carnage, and X-Men 2: Clone Wars. Learn more about your ad choices.

Patreon.com/RememberTheGame And you can check out Captain N's Retrotopia Podcast here: https://retrotopiapodcast.podbean.com/ The most fiercely contested Patreon Poll of the year is always our December RPG poll, and Wild Arms conquered it a couple months ago. I sunk about 30 hours into this one to get ready for this episode, and it was time well spent. This is the best RPG I've played in ages. It has an interesting enough story, a small party size (which I love), a banging soundtrack, and when you're not in combat, you can taste a little Link to the Past in the overworked while you use bombs, dashing, and hockshops to solve some pretty deep puzzles. I think Wild Arms gets a little overlooked because it's on the console Final Fantasy VII built, and it really deserves to have more respect put on it. This is a great game. I crossed the retro podcast streams again this week and asked Captain N of the Retrotopia podcast to join me, and we both agreed that aside from a couple minor issues, this is one of the best RPGs in the PlayStation library. And that says something because that was the Attitude Era of role-playing games. We're gonna spoil some plot points and puzzle solutions, but it'll be worth it. And before we break out our teardrops, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks what would have happened if Nintendo hadn't launched the NES back in the 80's?

Before RTG is done, we'll have covered all 11 core Mega Man games. And this week we're tackling what I consider to the the most underrated of the bunch: Mega Man 7 for the SNES. I think MM7 gets overlooked for a couple reasons. After 6 NES games, I think people might have been a little burnt out on the tried-and-true Mega Man formula. And more importantly, the Super Nintendo was the home of Mega Man X, which many consider to be the greatest Mega Man game of all-time. If you haven't played this one, don't sleep on it. The graphics are great, the music rocks, and in reality this is just an NES Mega Man in 16-bit glory. And that's all I wanted it to be. Joining me this is is a fellow podcaster and Mega Man junkie, my pal Dan from the Dissect That Film and Manawurm podcasts. What we thought would be a shorter episode turned into an hour long Mega Man loveliest, as we went through all the levels in this, the various weapons, and the cheese that is the final Wily fight. If you like Mega Man, ya gotta give this one a listen. And before we go after Wily again, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks if I think I have a video game addiction? Will I ever review a Call of Duty on the show? And where the HELL is Silk Song!?!?

Patreon.com/RememberTheGame And you can find ye olde Bradley McCue here: Instagram: @TheGamingOdyssey Twitch.tv/VideoGameOdyssey I love Capcom, and I love the NES. When those put those 2 together, you get games like Chip N' Dale and DuckTales. You also the occasionally-overlooked-but-really-solid Darkwing Duck. Let's get dangerous. This one definitely has a little more bite than some of the previous Capcom Disney games. Everyone told me there's a splash of Mega Man in this one, and I agree. Both because you can choose the order you tackle the levels in, and because it's gonna kill you a lot. But I rarely found it "cheap" tough. It was just one of those games that you keep playing and you get good at. Solid soundtrack, good graphics. My only real complaint is that I wish there was more of it. My buddy Bradley McCue returns to the show this week. And while we both kinda drop the ball when it comes to our Darkwing Duck knowledge (something I'm ashamed of because I love this show), we both agreed that Capcom was in the zone back in this era. And while we may not be convinced that DD belongs in the same conversation as DuckTales and Chip N' Dale, it's a game well worth your time. As long as you're not a controller thrower. And before we get dangerous, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks is I'd consider taking the VR plunge if tactical RPGs were VR experiences. Did I ever help my little brother beat games as a kid? And what comes first: Half Life 3, GTA 7, or world peace?? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

Patreon.com/RememberTheGame We don't show the Wii a lot of love on RTG, but with Nintendo re-re-releasing one of the system's best games on the Switch last month, I figured it was time. We're talking about the superb Donkey Kong Country Returns this week. DKC Returns is everything I want in a platformer. It plays really well. It's tough as hell (especially if you try to get all the collectibles). The soundtrack is banging, the graphics are good, there's level variety. The name says it all; this really is a return to classic Donkey Kong Country. PENDING RTG Hall of Famer and the Diddy to my Donkey Kong, ye olde Mark McCue is my guest this week. We came at this game from 2 different directions and had 2 very different playthroughs, but met up at the end to agree this is just a hell of a platformer and a game no DKC fan should miss. And before we go banana collecting, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks when I found games started to get a little soft. Should boss fights have their own separate difficulty sliders? And what game series peaked with its first release and then just gradually got worse? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features DK classics: Donkey Kong Country, Donkey Kong 64, and Donkey Kong '94. Learn more about your ad choices.
