Podcasts about retro games

Springfield deserves better. Bart chases his homework through a janky hub world, awkward mini-games, and one of Acclaim's messiest licensed efforts. Leatcho returns to break down why this game feels more Shelbyville than Springfield, from the chaotic design to the surprising development story of Bill Williams. Plus: community retro recollections and plenty of Simpsons references along the way.

Episode 2 of this year's Backlog Month features a game very different from last week's. Backlog month this year is RPG heavy and one of those RPGs we are looking at is Live A Live. Live A Live is an RPG from Square Enix that originally released back in 1994 for the Super Famicom but was later given a remake and published world wide in 2023. Joining to chat about the may lives experienced in this game is the Twitch streamer Happy Bear! Happy and I had a great conversation about our experiences with this game, why the battle system is pretty awesome, why the end of the game probably sucks and also the logisitics of farting in imperial China.

Backlog month 2025 kicks off with a big one! It's Castlevania. I covered Castlevania a LONG time ago on the show but that was before I had beaten it and it was very early in my podcasting career. So I figured putting it on my backlog month poll earlier this year was a perfect way to take another crack at this iconic NES game. But... A special game requires and even more special guest. Joining me on this episode is author, YouTuber, podcaster and Castlevania expert, Jeremy Parish. Jeremy has created so much Castlevania content I couldn't think of anyone better to join me on this episode. We discuss what makes this game so special, why it's an important game in the annals of game history, how much it's soundtrack slaps and so much more.

Worum geht's? 1986 erscheint mit Kid Icarus ein ungewöhnlicher Plattformer für das NES, der Elemente aus Action, Jump 'n' Run und Rollenspiel vereint – und dabei deutlich sperriger ist, als sein niedlicher Held vermuten lässt. Als geflügelter Engel Pit kämpft man sich durch vertikale und horizontale Labyrinthe, sammelt Herzen als Währung, verbessert seine Ausrüstung und stellt sich schließlich Medusa, der Göttin der Finsternis. Fabian und Gunnar sprechen in dieser Folge über die Entstehung des Spiels im Umfeld von Metroid, die Mischung aus antiker Mythologie und 8-Bit-Design sowie die Frage, warum Kid Icarus trotz seiner Ecken und Kanten bis heute Kultstatus genießt. Infos zum Spiel: Thema: Kid Icarus Erscheinungstermin: 1986 Plattform: NES Entwickler: Nintendo R&D1 Publisher: Nintendo Genre: Jump&Run Entwickler: Toru Osawa, Gunpei Yokoi, Satoru Okada Musik: Hirokazu Tanaka Produktions-Credits: Sprecher, Redaktion: Fabian Käufer, Gunnar Lott Audioproduktion: Fabian Langer, Christian Schmidt Titelgrafik: Paul Schmidt Intro & Outro: Nino Kerl (Ansage); Trash80.com (Musik)

Indie games are awesome. They try so many different and unique things or have unique spins on classic game design ideas. This week on the show I am joined by Emily Merritt and Kate Hunter from the No Small Games podcast to talk about an indie game that pushes emotional storytelling without dialogue and explores grief in a way I haven't experienced before. We are talking about the game Gris. Gris was developed by Nomada Studios and released in 2018. It explores the stages of grief in a very beatiful and haunting way. Kate, Emily and I talk all about this game's themes, what we loved about it, why it makes us love indie games and so much more.

Women, children, the elderly...doesn't matter. If you listen to Retro Encounter, you're going to have a good time.On this week's episode of Retro Encounter, we dive into the wild and wacky world of Yoko Taro, best known for his work on the NieR and Drakengard franchises. We discuss game design, themes, and just how many Taro games one person can play in a month without going insane. Can we make sense of Taro's madness?

Benedikt und und Andy haben sich in Folge 34 mal wieder vergessenen Spieleschätzen gewidmet. Sönke konnte aufgrund seines Urlaubs jedoch nicht mit von der Partie sein. Dabei hatte er sich mit dem Action-Adventure First Samurai vom britischen Entwickler Vivid Image einen echten Geheimtipp ausgesucht, dem seiner Meinung nach rückblickend zu wenig Aufmerksamkeit zuteilwurde. Das Spiel erschien im September 1991 für Amiga und Atari ST, wurde 1992 für den C64 und 1993 schließlich auch für MS-DOS und Super Nintendo umgesetzt. Auf Kultboy.com findet ihr die damaligen Testberichte aus Power Play und Co. Wer First Samurai heute spielen möchte: Der Klassiker ist bei Steam und GOG erhältlich, allerdings handelt es sich hierbei um die SNES-Portierung. Das Amiga-Original sowie die PC-Fassung gibt's drüben bei Gamesnostalgia.com. Viel Spaß! Sönke & Benedikt

Warum erleben Retrogames ein Revival? Sind es die Erinnerungen an früher? Ist es das einfache Gameplay? Oder ist es die simple Grafik, die ihren eigenen Charme hat? Wir sprechen darüber, welche Games bei uns in Erinnerung blieben und was die alten Spiele bei uns auslösen.

On today's Patron selected episode I'm discussing one of the most beloved Game Boy Advance titles. Golden Sun has a lot going for it and is Camelot Software's golden child but is it everything it's cracked up to be? Should it have been a Gamecube game? Does it need a remake?

Cecil may have a redemption arc, but the rest of the party is completely irredeemable... Matt Storm is back, and we're talking about the first 16-bit Final Fantasy!

Emulation is a polarizing subject in video games. While I personally feel its not a bad thing there are people who only associate with piracy. So I figured who better to talk about this topic than the founder of one of the earliest emulation websites, Zophar. Zophar founded Zophar's domain back in 1996 as a way to aggregate emulation information and it grew into something much more than that. Zophar and I chatted about how he started Zophar's domain, why he left, his feelings on emulation and much more!

WHY DON'T THEY HAVE WRESTLING MATCHES IN PUMPKIN PATCHES!? This isn't the set-up to a street joke, this is a genuine question that Matt has. Roses watched a fake movie starring Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson. Matt played a “stealth team tactics game” with ghost pirates.BUT the real story here is that PushingUpRoses and Matt replayed a classic game from their youths that features a live-acted Christopher Lloyd in a fully cartoon world. It's called Toonstruck and it rules and the only bad thing about it is that they never released a sequel.Email us! mattandroses@gmail.comGAMES MENTIONED: The Naked Gun: I.C.U.P.

A huge part of video game history is context. Context surrounding a game's development, context surrounding a game's release, context of the time and place the game was made during. Context informs how we interpret the past. This week on the show I am joined by author and journalist Ross Benes to talk about his book "1999: The Year Low Culutre Conquered America and Kickstarted Our Bizarre Times." We discuss what about the late 90's has informed so much of our present, how that culture affected the games that came out and how the games themselves were part of that percieved "low culture" at the time. There is so much more in his book worth diving into but I felt like this was a good introduction for ya'll to see what Ross has written.

We delve the depths of Tallon IV on this episode of Still Loading. I'm joined by returning guest to the podcast Chris (aka the British Bond Addict) to talk Metroid Prime. Metroid Prime is a game that has eluded me for a while. I first played it over a decade ago but never got around to beating it even though I made it over 90% through the game. That has been finally corrected and I couldn't be happier I got to experience it.... with a few complaints here and there. Chris and I discuss the music, the world, the story, why he's wrong about the story... I mean we just discuss the story. Anyway. Learn how to morph ball and roll on into this new episode!

I love Nintendo. I still do. This company makes some of my favorite systems and games and has also given me some of my favorite memories. But even with my love of Nintendo its hard to overlook their negatives, even if those negatives are not Nintendo's fault. This week on the show I'm joined by Chris Coplien from Retro Hangover and St1ka from the YouTube channel St1ka to talk about the Nintendo Bump. We discuss how it seems the perception of game history at large is heavily skewed by Nintendo fandom, how that harms game preservation in other areas of gaming and where this bump seems to come from.

This week we set sail for adventure here on the Still Loading Podcast. Joining me is new friend to the show Supertendo to talk about the originally maligned but now beloved Zelda game, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Despite being more beloved now, Wind Waker had a very polarizing launch back in 2002 when it came out. This was not the Zelda most fans were looking for at the time, myself included. But a gutsy choice from Nintendo back then has proven it's staying power. Wind Waker is significantly more popular now than it was back when it released and I would like to feel like that is largely because it's intended audience grew up a bit and played the game on it's own merits and not based on their expectation. Supertendo and I discuss all of this on the episode along with how we feel the gameplay holds up, is sailing fun? Which is better the OG or the remake? Is the Triforce quest THAT bad?

It is podcasts.On this week's episode, two old veterans and one newcomer dive into the 1995 SNES RPG Breath of Fire II.

Back in 2020 I did an episode on Final Fantasy X. Five years later there is finally a sequel to that episode where I talk about the sequel to that game! Joining me this week is Rick from Pixel Project Radio to help me change in and out of numerous costumes as we discuss the first ever direct sequel in the Final Fantasy series, Final Fantasy X-2. X-2 expands the world of FFX in many clever ways while also introducing a really unique battle system that I enjoyed a decent amount. Rick and I had a lot of fun dissecting what makes this game unique, how it feels to play it all these years later and ultimately what we both felt was it's downfall.
