C'est quoi pour vous le retrogaming ? C'est regarder Retro Découverte et le Joueur du Grenier ? C'est collectionner les Game Boy chinées en brocantes ? Jouer en salle d'arcade à Galaga ? Lire des bouquins sur Mario ou Final Fantasy ? C'est un tag Steam ? Des mini consoles ? De l'émulation peut-être ? Vous voyez où mène cette petite rhétorique : il n'y a pas un, mais des retrogamings. Le vôtre, celui des livres d'histoire ou celui de l'industrie.

Anna hits the floor at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo, or as she and her late friend Roberta always called it, the PGRE. It's a weekend overflowing with nostalgia, laughter, and the kind of serendipity that only happens when you pack decades of gaming history under one roof. This episode brings you the voices and moments that defined the show: Al Lowe sharing stories from his Sierra days, Lori and Corey Cole reminiscing about Quest for Glory, George Sanger talking music and memory, and dozens of creators, collectors, and fans who keep the golden age of adventure games alive. From the FMV Museum and the Error 47 concert to spontaneous hallway interviews and late-night reflections, this is a trip through time and community. Whether you were there in person or living vicariously through your headphones, you'll feel the hum of the crowd, the passion of the fans, and the unmistakable presence of Roberta woven throughout it all. Press play, step onto the show floor, and let the stories roll. Mangia! Here's all the interviews in order, along with links!

In this Ghoulcade finale, I am joined by Matt Storm and Chris Dominguez to dissect Nintendo's 1994 masterpiece, Super Metroid. From development hurdles and poor sales to speedrunning innovations and the infamous Meridia, my crew debates whether Super Metroid truly deserves its legendary status. Along the way, we share personal histories, hot takes, and community recollections that cover everything from Chozo jump scares to why Samus might secretly be gaming's most terrifying protagonist...

The mitochondria do all the talking this week on Still Loading. To wrap up Backlog Month I am joined by friend of the show Michael Berger from the Bits of Time podcast to talk about Squaresoft's foray into horror, Parasite Eve. Based off a book on the same name, Parasite Eve is a horror JRPG that came out in 1998 and has become a bit of a cult hit from that time. Michael and I had a ton of fun discussing the ins and outs of the game along with all the wild turns the story takes.

Repost d'un épisode publié initialement en avril 2023Plus de deux ans après sa première diffusion, on vous propose de redécouvrir cet épisode consacré au Steam Deck, la console portable de Valve (les créateurs de Steam).Un épisode qui, deux ans plus tard, reste étonnamment actuel. Parce qu'entre-temps, le Steam Deck a confirmé son positionnement et sa place dans le paysage du jeu vidéo, s'imposant comme une vraie console PC, loin des simples machines hybrides ou gadgets d'expérimentation.À l'époque, on parlait déjà de son confort, de sa praticité et de son intérêt pour un certain type de joueur : celui ou celle qui aime encore jouer, mais qui doit composer avec un quotidien bien rempli.On y abordait aussi cette modularité si particulière au Steam Deck, ce mélange entre liberté du PC et simplicité de la console, et ce que ça change dans la vie d'un parent gamer.Parce qu'être daron ou daronne gamer, c'est aussi avoir grandi avec d'autres machines, d'autres générations de consoles. Et le Steam Deck, quelque part, réunit tout ça : la nostalgie du rétro-gaming, la puissance du PC, et la praticité d'une console portable. C'est une machine qui ne perd pas ton temps, qui ne t'impose pas dix menus de réglages avant de lancer un jeu, mais qui t'offre une vraie expérience, adaptée à ton rythme.Bonne écoute

It's 2002. I'm 17 years old... I just landed a job at FuncoLand at the height of the 6th console gen. In this 'Memories' episode, I'm going to take you with me as I revisit what it was like to be a video game store employee during better days. You'll learn about what working there was like, but also the experiences and memories I carry with me to this day, and even some Patron submitted stories! This is one of the biggest projects I've ever produced, and I hope some of it resonates with your life a little bit too.

Aujourd'hui, on ne fait pas qu'un test...Alors qu'on testait la ROG Xbox Ally, on a eu un choc : c'est fini.Microsoft, à travers cette nouvelle machine aux allures de collaboration marketing plus que de véritable console, nous confirme l'inévitable.La Xbox, en tant que matériel, n'est clairement plus une priorité,et il va falloir se faire une raison : il est temps de passer à autre chose.Nous vous proposons de nous réunir pour une cérémonie un peu particulière.La Xbox s'en est allée.⚰️ Après des années à trôner sous nos télés, à souffler dans le silence des salons,son corps est désormais froid…et il est temps de lui dire adieu.Dans cet épisode, on revient sur tout ce qu'elle a représenté et sur les signes qui ne trompent pas : le hardware s'éteint, le cloud prend le relais, et la boîte verte qu'on connaissait appartient déjà aux souvenirs.Un dernier hommage à une console qu'on a aimée, et un au revoir à une époque qu'on ne reverra plus.
The AYN Thor is a modern love letter to the DS and 3DS era of handhelds, specifically it feels and looks similar to a Nintendo "NEW" 3DS XL, but with way more horsepower under the hood. You're looking at a crisp 6‑inch 1080p AMOLED up top, a 3.9‑inch AMOLED touch screen below, and internals that scale from a Snapdragon 865 up to a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 with 16 gigs of RAM and a terabyte of storage. Toss in Hall‑effect sticks, stacked triggers, Wi‑Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.3, and a beefy 6000mAh battery, and you've got a dual‑screen handheld that's not just for nostalgia — it's a fantastic multi-tasking emulation and Android gaming monster.Thor: https://rh-go.link/AYN-ThorThor Accessories:https://rh-go.link/AYN-Thor-Accessories_Packhttps://rh-go.link/AYN-Thor-Lanyardhttps://rh-go.link/AYN-Thor-Carrying-Casehttps://rh-go.link/AYN-Thor-TPU-Griphttps://rh-go.link/AYN-Thor-Soft-Pouchhttps://rh-go.link/AYN-Thor-TPU-Shellhttps://rh-go.link/AYN-Thor-Screen-Protectors Configs:https://rh-go.link/AYN-Thor-Litehttps://rh-go.link/AYN-Thor-Basehttps://rh-go.link/AYN-Thor-ProThor Stylus: https://rh-go.link/Mini_Android_Stylus@RetroGameCorps Input Delay Tests: https://www.reddit.com/r/SBCGaming/comments/1o8mbmn/more_thor_input_delay_testing_because_why_not/ 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰✨Became a Supporterhttps://patreon.com/RetroHandhelds or Discord sub• Access to Patron only Discord chat & marketplace• Earn merch, enter giveaways, and get free stuff• Device Modding Services
We're gonna be gonna be golden! This week on the show I am joined by Aaron Klaassen from Super Ghost and Chris Dominguez from Consoles and Stuff to talk about the GBA JRPG Golden Sun! I first got Golden Sun back in the early 2010s from a Game Stop near me and never touched it until my patrons voted for it for Backlog Month this year and I am so happy they did. Aaron, Chris and I had a ton of fun discussing the game's mechanics, visuals, music and much more! Does this game have a really fun and interesting battle system? Yes! Does it teach it to you at all?

The Dreamcast is home to hundreds of classic experiences. While there are various opinions on what could be considered "The best", another way to look at it is what are the must play experiences that made the Dreamcast special. Which games should be experienced on Sega's final console? Dan the Mega Driver and James The SEGAHolic attempt to answer that question with the Dreamcast Bucket list.
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.

In the other: Steve Wiebe, a laid-off family man from Seattle with a garage, a Donkey Kong cabinet, and an obsessive drive to finally be the best in the world at something.What starts as a light-hearted look at competitive gaming quickly spirals into a bizarre battle of pride, politics, and pixels.

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.

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.

In Part 2 of my conversation with @RetroGamingNomad, we dive headfirst into the world of Twisted Metal. I give a quick breakdown of the Peacock series—seasons one and two—and how it connects to the games, while Retro shares some history on the franchise and a funny story about meeting co-creator David Jaffe. We swap memories about our favorite entries, characters, and what we'd love to see in a future Twisted Metal revival.From there, we shift gears into the Alien universe, reflecting on the films that built the franchise before turning our attention to Alien: Earth. We talk about what's hooked us so far, what works, and where the show might go with only two episodes left—sharing our theories, hopes, and excitement for what's next.
Tonight we are reflecting on Monster Party, a quirky, side-scrolling platformer that was developed by Human Entertainment, published by Bandai and released in North America in June of 1989.Human Entertainment released some exciting games on the NES such as Baseball Stars, Kabuki Quantum Fighter and Pro Wrestling, and not-so exciting games such as The Adventures of Gilligan's Island and Dance Aerobics. They also created the phenomenon known as Stadium Events. Our returning Deacon, whose probably licking his chops right now, 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.

PlayStation 2 gave us some of the greatest games of all time—and today, the four of us are drafting our ultimate list of 12 PS2 classics. We're reliving the golden era of gaming! Here's the twist: none of us knew each other's picks going in. That means rivalries, swipes, and plenty of surprises along the way. It's 4 gamers, 12 picks, zero mercy. If you grew up with the PS2, or you're just diving into its legendary library, this is the draft for you. #gamingpodcast #videogamepodcast #gamingsofficialpodcast Youtube Instagram

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!

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.
