Everyone has ideas for a new Donkey Kong or Banjo-Kazooie game, but what about the third pillar of the DKU? Being a more auteur-driven series, most people have written Conker off as a dead franchise. But what if it indeed got a new full-length game? In a unique Kongversation, three DK Vine staffers with wildly contrasting opinions on where to take the peeing squirrel all convene for a wild and messy panel debate!
Digital Eclipse's Mike Mika joins us to discuss the process of digging in the crates and building Atari 50: The Anniversary Collection, as well as his time developing Intellivision Amico games and much, much more. We're also talking about McPixel 3, Sonic Frontiers, Control 2, Street Fighter 6, and The Game Awards nominees. Also more???? Dang, that's a podcast.
Mike Mika has had his hand in the development of well over 100 games throughout his career, including many of the classic game compilations developed by Digital Eclipse. He is also the main force behind 2015's hit game #IDARB, an Xbox One game with over a million downloads. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/digresscast/message
Who's the most stand-up, solid dude in the Donkey Kong Universe? Not that piece of trash Conker! The Kongversation makes the case for Banjo, a bluegrass-loving hillbilly with cosmopolitan tastes, an enormous heart, and only light manslaughter charges.

Mike's improvisational approach to game design can inspire any game designer to spend more tame creating interactivity and less time working only with documentation. His enthusiasm for game development and the game business is also very palpable in this interview. In this episode we cover his work on several hit franchises, his experience creating #IDARB, his approach to prototyping quickly and effectively, and surprise attention he recieved in 2013. That was the year when the rest of the world became aware of Mike as “The Donkey Kong Dad” when he modified the classic Donkey Kong game for his daughter, so she could play as Pauline and rescue Mario.

You heard beloved Donkey Kong Universe character Richard Nixon (from off of #IDARB)! It's time for another Call Sack episode, where the Kongversation takes any and all phone messages from the DK Vine Hotline. Dial 1-281-410-KONG to be on the next one!

As the gaming world gets prepared to SWITCH out their soiled underwear in anticipation for Nintendo's new mulligan console, a discontented minority have already proclaimed it dead on arrival thanks to the incoming Zelda downloadable content. On this episode, Hyle and Nick examine how hyperbolic these concerns are while looking at our own history of DLC in the Donkey Kong Universe. Is DLC ever a good thing?

PAX Prime Day 3 is still going! Gotcha! It's over, and Ryan and Matt first played Waiting in Line: THE GAME before also playing Gearbox's Battleborn, Mario Maker and the levels from the World Championships, and Cuphead (!), but we also touched the Xbox One Elite controller inappropriately, went to a panel with Mike Mika (#IDARB), Evan Jacover (Jackbox), and Steve Heinrich (Jackbox) where we played some Quiplash, talked about The Jackbox Party Pack 2, new #IDARB licensed DLC, and ended up talking with them one-on-one for a good 20 minutes afterwards. Day 4 up shortly!
You might know him as the Donkey Kong Dad, the man who hacked Donkey Kong so that his daughter could play as Pauline and save Mario. You may also know him as one of the geniuses behind the recent Social Media driven game #iDARB. His name is Mike Mika, and we aren't talking to him about either of these feats. Today we will be concentrating on a much different wondrous feat that Mike was a part of: the porting of the arcade game Dragon's Lair to the Game Boy Color. Mike shares with us some of the complexities of such a thing and some of the haggling that had to be done with the publisher to get the game to where it ultimately ended up.

Mike Mika returns to talk about the Eclipse Engine, how Digital Eclipse is preserving the best retro video games, the possibilities for future releases, IDARB updates, the magic of the Sega Dreamcast, future projects, and more!
