Podcasts about super nintendo

Vorab: Super Stay Forever ist unser Konsolenformat, betreut wird es von Fabian Käufer, der mit diesem Format 2017 als erste zusätzliche Stimme nach den Gründern Chris und Gunnar an Bord kam. Seither hat er sich in vielfältigen Produktionen um das Projekt verdient gemacht, als Gesprächspartner in Super Stay Forever, Ausgefragt! und SFT Bits, als Quiz-Kandidat, Bühnengast bei Cons, Koordinator von Printprojekten, Autor für den Newsletter und vielem mehr. Fabian, wir sind sehr froh, dass du dabei bist! Auf die nächsten 100! Worum geht's in der Folge? Diesmal steht Super Mario World im Mittelpunkt: das 1990 für das Super Famicom erschienene Jump'n'Run, das mit dem Super Nintendo zum Klassiker der 16-Bit-Ära wurde. Fabian und Gunnar sprechen darüber, wie präzise Steuerung, abwechslungsreiche Levels und eine frei erkundbare Weltkarte zusammenwirken und warum sich Marios Cape-Flug, das Reiten auf Yoshi, Schalterpaläste und geheime Ausgänge bis heute so gut anfühlen. Dazu blicken sie auf die Entwicklung des Spiels und ihre eigenen Erinnerungen zurück. Rahel, Christian, Johannes und Paul aus dem Stay-Forever-Team steuern persönliche Anekdoten und besondere Level-Einblicke bei: von den Rätseln im Donut Secret House und Vanilla Dome 4 bis zu den klanglichen Unterschieden zwischen NES und Super Nintendo.

En Rejugando 318 repasamos buena parte de la actualidad del videojuego con especial atención a Trails in the Sky: Chapter 2, el nuevo recorte de Xbox, la situación de sus estudios y los cambios que está viviendo la industria. Blood of the Dawnwalker ocupa uno de los bloques principales del programa. Comentamos sus mecánicas, el sistema de tiempo limitado a 30 días, las decisiones con consecuencias, el combate como humano o vampiro, la exploración y la ambientación medieval marcada por la peste negra. También repasamos sus problemas de rendimiento, variedad de enemigos, duración y las futuras actualizaciones que preparan sus desarrolladores. Hablamos largo y tendido de Xbox y su nueva reestructuración, con despidos, cambios en la organización de sus estudios y movimientos alrededor de Ninja Theory, Halo Studios, Playground, Activision, Rare, Obsidian e inXile. También ponemos sobre la mesa el futuro de Xbox Game Pass, la estrategia de Microsoft y el impacto que pueden tener todos estos cambios sobre los proyectos actuales y futuros. Otro de los grandes debates del programa gira alrededor de la publicidad dentro de los videojuegos. Analizamos una patente de Microsoft basada en machine learning que podría introducir anuncios en determinados momentos de una partida y la relacionamos con una patente similar de PlayStation. También hablamos de monetización, anuncios en servicios de suscripción y del posible impacto de este modelo sobre la experiencia de juego. También hay espacio para los rumores sobre la próxima generación de consolas. Comentamos las supuestas especificaciones de PlayStation 6 y el proyecto de próxima consola de Xbox, incluyendo las cifras de teraflops filtradas, las nuevas arquitecturas de AMD, el ray tracing y el posible coste de unas máquinas que podrían suponer un salto importante respecto a PS5 y Xbox Series X. Todo ello, dejando claro que se trata de información filtrada y que todavía no son especificaciones oficiales. Trails in the Sky: Chapter 2 es otro de los protagonistas. Eva nos cuenta sus impresiones después de jugar a la segunda entrega, la importancia de haber jugado al primer capítulo, el regreso de personajes y NPC, la música, las nuevas mecánicas de los orbes y artes, los minijuegos, el casino, la pesca y las mejoras en las mazmorras. También hablamos de la duración y de cómo esta secuela mantiene el espíritu del primer juego mientras amplía sus sistemas. Repasamos además la edición coleccionista de Grand Theft Auto VI, su contenido y su precio, en un bloque cargado de humor en el que calculamos cuánto pueden valer realmente todos los objetos que incluye y comentamos que la edición no incorpora el juego como tal. Entre las noticias también aparecen Castlevania: Belmont's Curse, su demo y la transferencia del progreso a la versión completa; el futuro de Destiny y los planes de Bungie para recuperar contenido eliminado; Marathon y sus próximas mejoras; y el sorprendente cambio de Quake Champions, que después de años como free-to-play pasa a convertirse en un juego de pago. Rafa también comparte sus primeras impresiones con Fire Emblem: Fortune's Wheel, su primer acercamiento a la saga, hablando del combate táctico, la planificación, las relaciones entre personajes, la estructura por capítulos y la enorme duración de la aventura. Y cerramos con la participación de la comunidad de Rejugando: preguntas, audios y debates sobre protagonistas, antagonistas, compañeros de videojuegos y aquellos juegos que los integrantes del programa no volverían a jugar. Un episodio con mucha actualidad, RPG, industria, hardware, polémicas y conversación sobre hacia dónde está evolucionando el videojuego. *Este resumen se genera automaticamente Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

Read transcriptMost podcast guests call in from a spare bedroom, a closet lined with winter coats, or a parked car outside a grocery store. Josh Garvey is joining us from the middle of a black hole. On the bright side, the room tone is fantastic. Nothing echoes when nothing, light included, is allowed to leave. It's also a fitting backdrop, because this episode is all about taking an adventure you used to play and asking it to sit still on a page. Somebody looked at a whole quest built on mashing buttons and said, “What if the only button left was ‘turn the page'?” The bravest thing you can do is lick your thumb. That's a bold leap from the action genre to the paper-cut genre, and we're going to take a hard look at The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past in comic form. Josh has agreed to walk us through it from beyond the event horizon, where time runs a bit slow, so by the time you hear this he's technically still on his first sentence. That also makes him the only guest we've ever had who can offer a genuine link to the past, a pun I've been sitting on since the moment he said yes. We had to be careful with the mic placement, since anything left within Josh's reach gets stretched into a very long strand of spaghetti. Lesson learned about the pop filter. So please keep your arms, legs, and any nearby light inside the episode at all times, and don't panic if the audio shows up a few billion years late. Nobody has ever returned from a black hole to leave a bad review, which honestly might be the best business model in podcasting. Learn such things as: What's the difference between looking into the future and influencing the future? How much can you change an iconic story when adapting to a new medium? Will the greatness of the Super Nintendo ever come back to us? And so much more! You can find Josh if you already know how to find Josh. Which is pretty much on other episodes of this very podcast. Or you can watch this episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000 that he told me to link to.

También hablamos de las notas recibidas por el juego y de las críticas a su propuesta más lineal y centrada en la acción. También le damos un buen repaso a Orbitals, la aventura cooperativa de ciencia ficción con estética de anime de los 80 y 90. Hablamos de su jugabilidad a pantalla partida, los puzles, los artefactos, la comunicación entre jugadores, la música, el doblaje, la estética retro, su duración, la historia, el ritmo del tramo final, el rendimiento y la decisión de convertirlo en un juego exclusivamente cooperativo. La BlizzCon vuelve después de dos años y viene cargada: World of Warcraft: Forever, la idea de recuperar la esencia del WoW clásico con una historia alternativa y nuevas posibilidades, Diablo V, sus nuevas clases, el salto temporal de cien años, el nuevo mundo y la fecha prevista, además de la celebración del 30 aniversario de Diablo y la nueva temporada de Diablo IV. También hablamos del regreso de StarCraft, esta vez convertido en un shooter en primera persona, las comparaciones con Far Cry y Renegade, el estado del proyecto y la decisión de Blizzard de anunciar juegos con tanta antelación. Repasamos además Warcraft III, nuevo contenido, The Last Titan y el futuro del universo Warcraft. En la actualidad del Tokyo Game Show y Xbox repasamos las novedades y tráilers mostrados, con especial atención a Bloodstained, Crazy Taxi, Persona 4 y otros anuncios, además de las fechas de lanzamiento y la estrategia de Xbox para ganar presencia en Japón. Hablamos también del retraso de Rayman Legends Remastered, que pasa de octubre a diciembre, de Trails in the Sky: Chapter 2nd y sus primeras notas, de Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave y de otros lanzamientos que vienen cargados de horas de juego. Nos metemos con la edición física de la banda sonora de Grand Theft Auto VI, el CD y los vinilos, sus precios y el debate sobre las ediciones físicas que cada vez se parecen más a productos de merchandising. También comentamos las figuras de la edición coleccionista de Final Fantasy VII Rebirth/Revelation mostradas en el Tokyo Game Show y el debate sobre su acabado, precio y las reservas de los coleccionistas. Repasamos además la situación de Build a Rocket Boy y el futuro del estudio tras nuevos recortes de plantilla y los problemas alrededor de MindsEye. Hay sitio también para los rumores sobre una posible nueva portátil de PlayStation: especificaciones filtradas, RDNA 5, rendimiento, reconstrucción de imagen, posible precio, compatibilidad con juegos de PlayStation y PC, PlayStation Portal y la competencia de las nuevas máquinas consolizadas. Todo ello dejando claro que hablamos de información no confirmada. Dedicamos un bloque al indie español con dev-initive y una selección de juegos mostrados durante el evento, además de comentar el volumen de proyectos presentados, las demos y la presencia de estudios españoles y latinoamericanos. También hablamos de libros relacionados con videojuegos, incluyendo Mil balas por segundo, la enciclopedia del shoot'em up de David Boscá, y Que se mueran los gamers, el nuevo libro de Adrián Suárez. Y cerramos con las preguntas de los oyentes: nuestro protagonista y villano de videojuegos favoritos, qué haríamos si fuéramos directivos de PlayStation y Kojima llevara dos años sin avanzar en su juego, si dejaríamos marchar a Kojima o cancelaríamos el proyecto, y la gran pregunta: ¿qué le está pasando a la industria del videojuego? Además, repasamos las respuestas de la semana anterior sobre qué género conservaríamos para siempre, qué género eliminaríamos y cuál sería nuestra portátil definitiva. Todo esto en Rejugando 317.

Bora ouvir! Lançado originalmente no Japão em 1995, o jogo coloca o jogador no controle de uma jovem princesa em uma aventura de plataforma […] O post Fliperama de Boteco #544 – Magical Pop'n apareceu primeiro em FLIPERAMA DE BOTECO.

Ian and Dave sit down with foremost baskeballologist Sandwich Pope Phil to talk about NBA Live 95, NBA Live 96, NBA Live 97 and NBA Live 98 for the Super Nintendo. NBA Live (SNES) Shownotes The post Ep. 887 – NBA Live (SNES) appeared first on TADPOG: Tyler and Dave Play Old Games.

Apple finally gave the tech world its foldable iPhone, and the biggest question on AwesomeCast 796 isn't whether it looks impressive. It's whether anyone needs a $1,999 phone. Sorg, Katie Dudas and Dave Podnar spend this week's episode looking at where Apple is going next, while also catching up on Nintendo, MapQuest, Pittsburgh technology and some unusually revealing internet analytics. Siri Gets Smarter — Eventually Dave upgraded to iOS 27 and came away impressed with its speed and stability, but the headline Siri AI features come with a catch: there's a waitlist. Apple's rollout includes a more capable Siri experience, improved Visual Intelligence and upgrades to Image Playground. Sorg, who had access earlier through the beta process, says Siri already appears better at understanding spoken requests and answering questions without immediately handing everything off elsewhere. More on the Siri AI rollout: https://www.macrumors.com/2026/09/15/ios-27-siri-ai-has-waitlist-how-to-join/ Apple's $1,999 Foldable Experiment Then there's the iPhone Duo. The foldable became one of the episode's biggest discussions after an unlikely piece of analytics showed just how much attention Apple's announcement received: Pornhub reported a significant traffic drop when Apple revealed the device. https://mashable.com/life/pornhub-apple-event-viewers-dropped-iphone-duo Beyond the jokes, there are intriguing ideas here. Apple is using matching aspect ratios between the outside and inside displays, potentially making life easier for developers. The larger format opens up interesting multitasking possibilities, and the crew sees potential for business users, presenters and some creators. The problem is impossible to ignore: $1,999 is a lot of money for a phone. Katie compares the experience to having a dual-monitor setup in your pocket but struggles to get past the cost. Sorg sees the Duo more as Apple's latest first-generation experiment — something that may eventually trickle down into less expensive devices after early adopters figure out what the form factor is actually good for. Apple Watch Solves the “What Did They Just Say?” Problem A smaller Apple announcement may prove more immediately useful. The crew discusses an Apple Watch listening feature that can help recover something you recently heard. The example involved replaying information like restaurant specials, but Sorg immediately saw a production use for it: remembering instructions received in a noisy event environment. Sometimes the best technology feature isn't spectacular. It simply fixes a small problem that happens constantly. Nintendo Looks Back — and Forward Chachi's Video Game Minute brings an update on the White House Tetris-style game, which has now been removed. https://www.forbes.com/sites/zacharyfolk/2026/09/08/white-house-removes-controversial-tetris-style-game-from-arcade-website/ Nintendo also showed gameplay for the Switch 2 remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, scheduled for November 5. https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/nintendo-shares-the-first-gameplay-and-release-date-for-the-legend-of-zelda-ocarina-of-time-remake/ Sorg continues the Nintendo discussion with Mario Kart World's newly accessible recreations of classic Super Nintendo tracks and a new Metroid announcement.

MapQuest Wins With Whimsy MapQuest's unexpected comeback continues, powered partly by something its bigger competitors often lack: personality. Katie introduces two more Questies — Corgi and Black Cat — along with Rufus, the dog who inspired the Corgi design, and the upcoming Jimothy character. Future MapQuest updates are also expected to include CarPlay, Android Auto and transit improvements.

Sometimes giving people a reason to care about the product is enough to get another look. From CAPTCHA to Duolingo For Hispanic Heritage Month, Dave's Awesome History segment highlights Luis von Ahn. Von Ahn came from Guatemala to Carnegie Mellon, became one of the researchers behind CAPTCHA and later co-founded Duolingo. The discussion expands into the importance of university research and how work that begins without an obvious commercial product can eventually become foundational technology. https://www.invent.org/inductees/luis-von-ahn Wrestling in a Military Hangar Sorg's Awesome Thing of the Week comes from a very different kind of technology production. The Sidekick Media crew helped capture Prospect Pro Wrestling's “Banger in the Hangar” at the 911th Air Wing. Wrestlers entered through a huge cargo aircraft, Stormtroopers showed up, the Pirate Parrot got involved, and the production took place inside an enormous working hangar. Watch the event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kqJY33amJ0 It is another episode that jumps from smartphones and video games to Pittsburgh production stories — exactly the kind of wonderfully strange technology mix AwesomeCast was built for.

En este nuevo episodio de **Rejugando: Aquellos Maravillosos Años** nos sentamos con David Canela, diseñador, director de videojuegos y una de las figuras que mejor pueden contar desde dentro cómo ha evolucionado la industria española del videojuego durante las últimas décadas. Una conversación que empieza viajando a **1995 y 1998**, dos años fundamentales para David como jugador, y que termina convirtiéndose en un auténtico recorrido por la historia reciente del desarrollo de videojuegos en España. **1995: Super Nintendo, recreativas y los primeros grandes recuerdos** David nos cuenta cómo consiguió su Super Nintendo después de ahorrar 25.000 pesetas, sus primeros juegos —Mario All-Stars, Fatal Fury Special y Earthworm Jim 2— y cómo tener un amigo trabajando en un videoclub podía convertirse, literalmente, en disponer de un auténtico *dealer* de videojuegos. Hablamos deChrono Trigger, Yoshi's Island, Donkey Kong Country 2, Rayman, Panzer Dragoon, Mortal Kombat 3, Virtua Fighter 2 y muchos más. También repasamos la música, el cine y la televisión de mediados de los 90, desde Robert Miles hasta Friends, Expediente X, Médico de Familia o Farmacia de Guardia. Y, por supuesto, aparece uno de los grandes recuerdos de aquella época: Dragon Ball Z: Super Butoden 2, los cartuchos para jugar a versiones japonesas, los trucos transmitidos de amigo a amigo y ese código que muchos llevamos grabado en la memoria muscular. **1998: el año en el que todo explotó** La segunda fecha elegida por David es 1998, y aquí la lista de clásicos resulta sencillamente descomunal: **The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Metal Gear Solid, Half-Life, Resident Evil 2, Gran Turismo, StarCraft, Banjo-Kazooie, Tekken 3, Grim Fandango, Baldur's Gate...** Un repaso a un año irrepetible y a cómo se vivían entonces los lanzamientos, las esperas, las importaciones y el descubrimiento de nuevas generaciones de videojuegos. David recuerda especialmente aquel verano en el que consiguió su **PlayStation**, el mando DualShock, las demos de las revistas y, finalmente, **Final Fantasy VII**, un juego que terminaría marcando profundamente su relación con los videojuegos. ️ **De programador a diseñador y director** Pero esta entrevista va mucho más allá de la nostalgia. David Canela repasa sus comienzos en el desarrollo, su formación como ingeniero informático, uno de los primeros másteres de desarrollo de videojuegos y su evolución desde la programación hacia el **game design, level design y dirección**. Hablamos de proyectos cancelados como **Cops**, de lo que realmente se aprende cuando un videojuego no llega a publicarse y de las dificultades de trabajar entre programación y diseño. También aparecen sus experiencias en **Gameloft**, Real Football, el desarrollo para Facebook, proyectos para móviles y otros trabajos que muestran una realidad de la industria que pocas veces vemos desde fuera. **Rime: cuatro años para hacer realidad un proyecto especial** David nos cuenta cómo vivió el desarrollo de **Rime**, las discusiones internas, las dudas sobre el ritmo y la recepción que tendría un juego tan particular y pausado. Una parte especialmente interesante para conocer qué ocurre dentro de un estudio cuando un proyecto en el que llevas años trabajando está a punto de llegar al público. ☁️ **Google Stadia, Gylt y League of Legends** También hablamos de **Gylt**, del salto a la dirección y de lo que supuso desarrollar un videojuego para **Google Stadia**. David explica qué cree que hizo mal Google con Stadia y reflexiona sobre los modelos de negocio, la paciencia de las grandes compañías y el futuro de la industria. Después llega otra experiencia enorme: trabajar con una licencia como **League of Legends** en **Song of Nunu**, y lo que supone desarrollar dentro de un universo con millones de jugadores. **Tuned In: una televisión maldita y el nuevo proyecto de David Canela** La parte más actual de la entrevista nos lleva hasta **Vercore Games** y su nuevo proyecto, **Tuned In**. Un videojuego de terror nacido de una idea tan sencilla como inquietante: **una televisión maldita que atrapa a quien la enciende y utiliza sus propios traumas para torturarlo**. David nos explica cómo nació el concepto, la inspiración en las antiguas televisiones de tubo y aquellas historias sobre señales misteriosas que aparecían al sintonizar determinados canales. Pero la propuesta va mucho más allá: decisiones narrativas, diferentes finales, minijuegos y una mecánica construida alrededor de unos controles extremadamente sencillos. Y sí: hablamos también de la espectacular televisión de madera que el equipo llevó a Gamescom, convertida literalmente en el mando del videojuego. El prólogo de Tuned In ya está disponible gratuitamente en Steam y el equipo trabaja con la vista puesta en un lanzamiento previsto para 2027. **La industria del videojuego, antes y ahora** En la recta final hablamos de algo que da para otra entrevista entera: ¿está mejor la industria ahora que cuando nos enamoramos de los videojuegos? David reflexiona sobre el avance tecnológico, la pérdida de impacto de los saltos generacionales, la proliferación del modelo free-to-play, la creatividad, el riesgo y esa sensación de descubrimiento que acompañaba a juegos como Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil o Super Mario World. Y terminamos con nuestras preguntas rápidas: juegos favoritos, bandas sonoras, videojuegos que abandonó, juegos que ha terminado decenas de veces, placeres culpables, títulos que borraría de su memoria y, por supuesto, qué videojuego haría David Canela si tuviera libertad absoluta, 30 personas y cuatro años de presupuesto. Una conversación larga, personal y llena de historias sobre videojuegos, desarrollo, industria, nostalgia y futuro.

On a besoin d'un petit épisode léger style bouillon de poulet alors on parle juste de belles affaires cette semaine! On commence avec le bien garni Zelda Direct pour le 40e anniversaire de la série Legend of Zelda et je vous partage notamment mes impressions sur l'annonce du remake d'Ocarina of Time. On parle aussi du second Nintendo Direct de la semaine dernière, rempli de petites surprises comme Metroid: Ravenous et Kirby and the World Beyond. En impressions souvenirs, on discute de Mario Paint, un jeu vidéo ludo-éducatif de création artistique sorti en 1992 pour la Super Nintendo et disponible aussi sur Switch 2. Est-ce que cet outil de création reste encore intéressant de nos jours avec toute la “AI slop” facile qui nous entoure? Je vous partage du moins mon amour pour ce jeu et comment celui-ci fut fédérateur pour ma carrière en jeu vidéo. Puis en question, on parle de comment Nintendo font pour rester pertinent en ce moment, de jeux trop longs, de musique, de créativité en jeu vidéo, salon de jeux vidéo et bien plus encore!

AI news this week: GPT-6 Astra is here and it does everything. We spent a week inside it (Blender, GarageBand, a full live game) to find out what it's actually great at. On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell go hands-on with OpenAI's Astra, aka GPT-6, and it's real good (and real expensive). The headline for us is computer use, and specifically Blender: Astra builds 3D scenes from a sentence, and the internet is already making Backrooms worlds, a hyper-real Palace of Fine Arts, and the Billie Jean dance. Gavin ran his own experiments, including a Parappa The Rapper style animation and a head-to-head with GPT 5.6. Plus: Astra identifying sounds from spectrograms, driving MS Paint and Canva, editing a full project, playing Zork as a walk-around game, remaking Paperboy in 3D, editing Super Nintendo games in real time, making music in Logic, and a League of Legends "cease and desist edition" that raises the big question of how copyright even keeps up with this. Also: the OpenAI Navier-Stokes math drama. NYU's Tristan Buckmaster and Anthropic's Levent Alpöge used AI to make a real advance on a 200-year-old fluid problem, and then, according to Buckmaster, OpenAI raced in with a 100-page proof of the same route and things got very ugly over credit. When your AI collaborator's lab can see what you're close to, who owns the idea? Plus: Gavin built King of the Prompts, a live competitive prompting game made with Astra and MiniMax H3 Max, and he'll tell you what it is, why he made it, and what it costs to run. And an AI See What You Did There with Skyrim: Senior Living, AI Denzel Washington delivering maybe the best AI video ever made, and a fruit fly brain that learned the YMCA (and lost the ability to love).

Send us Fan MailThe original music festival. The follow-up to the king of video game consoles. Some favorite 1990s celebrity crushes.Episode 257 has a batch of Gen-X nostalgia, hot and fresh out of the oven like Poppin' Fresh dough.It starts with a look back at the original, and many say, greatest, music festival. Woodstock occurred this week in history in 1969 and changed not only music but the culture of a generation. However, it ended up being a success pulled from the jaws of failure. A larger-than-expected crowd, food shortages, bad weather, and more could have sunk the event before it happened. Instead, it helped make it one of the most important events in music history.Now you're playing with power...super power. How do you follow up the most successful video game console ever made? If you are Nintendo, you take your time. 35 years ago this week, the 16-bit Super Nintendo made its debut in America. Sega Genesis had a two-year head start, so how would the SNES fare? Far better than they could have imagined. How many of these celebrities adorned the walls of your bedroom? This week's Top 5 is all about the biggest 1990s celebrity crushes. Male, female, actors, musicians, it's all covered here.Of course, there is a brand-new This Week in History and Time Capsule, featuring the ultimate bad-luck story of a person being struck by two consecutive foul balls at a baseball game.To support me and the show, become a member on Patreon. Or you can support my work and Buy Me A Coffee!Helpful Links from this EpisodeBuy My New Book, In Their Footsteps!Searching For the Lady of the Dunes True Crime BookHooked By Kiwi - Etsy.comDJ Williams MusicKeeKee's Cape Cod KitchenMSFTS CommunityKingfisher Hotels Cape CodChristopher Setterlund.comCape Cod Living - Zazzle StoreSubscribe on YouTube!Initial Impressions 2.0 BlogCJSetterlundPhotos on EtsyRetro Games.czListen to Episode 256 hereSupport the show

In this episode of JJ Meets World, JJ and Tucker take a nostalgic, chaotic trip through Super Nintendo games, Super Punch-Out, '90s child stars, Macaulay Culkin, Elijah Wood, The Good Son, Richie Rich, The Pagemaster, Streets of Rage, Donkey Kong Country, and morbid family humor. The episode begins with a friendly debate about Super Punch-Out for the Super Nintendo, including Gabby Jay knockout times, Nintendo Power dreams, Chrissy Gordon's impossible six-second record, and whether JJ and Tucker should create a 48-hour leaderboard challenge with screenshots, matching Nintendo Switch hardware, and an Applebee's prize for the winner. From there, JJ and Tucker talk about retro gaming, SNES controllers for Nintendo Switch Online, classic arcade-style pattern recognition, Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, Streets of Rage, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time, Sunset Riders, Donkey Kong Country, and the strange cultural stereotypes baked into some classic video game characters. Then the conversation takes a sharp turn into The Good Son, the 1993 psychological thriller starring Macaulay Culkin and Elijah Wood. JJ walks Tucker through the movie's disturbing plot, including Henry's manipulation, Mr. Highway, the crossbow, the ice-skating scene, the bathtub revelation, the cliff ending, and the brutal final choice between saving a nephew or a son. JJ and Tucker also discuss why The Good Son was controversial in the 1990s, how Macaulay Culkin's father reportedly helped push him into the role after Home Alone 2, and why audiences were anxious about seeing one of the world's most famous child actors play a child killer. That leads into a bigger conversation about child star fame, including Macaulay Culkin, Elijah Wood, Daniel Radcliffe, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Abigail Breslin, Mickey Rooney, Shirley Temple, and what it means for a kid actor to become a full cultural phenomenon. The episode wraps with memories of Richie Rich, The Pagemaster, the "Dad not found" computer line, dead-parent humor, rejected Christmas card ideas, and the weirdly healing power of making a very dark joke with exactly the right person.

This week we talk about Sony, Nintendo, and the Playstation.We also discuss Grand Theft Auto, the 3DO, and digital dark ages.Recommended Book: 3 Days, 9 Months, 27 Years by John ScalziTranscriptThe earliest video game consoles that were made to be used in the home, as opposed to being set up in an arcade, were hardwired like their arcade kin. That means rather than being able to play a bunch of different games, they were basically just single-game boxes: you would buy a machine that allowed you to play Pong, for instance, and if you wanted to play another game, even by the same maker, Atari, you would have to buy another whole console with its own screen, controls, etc, to do so.That was the state of the art in the early to mid 1970s. By the late-70s, the concept of swappable games became reality with the introduction of what are called ROM cartridges. ROM stands for read-only memory and is a type of storage common in computers and other devices, which allows whatever you store on it to persist, which is a contrast to RAM, which is the type of memory that determines how much you can do on a device at any given moment, and which disappears when the device is turned off.So these ROM cartridges were kind of like the portion of the hard drive that's used to boot up your computer, storing the bare-basics of the system so it can be initialized and understand how to run all the other software that builds upon that baseline. And that memory was stored in durable, plastic cases that made them usable by ordinary, non-techy people. You could buy a game and handle the cartridge, popping it into your game console hardware and removing it, to make way for another game, over and over and over again, and that use would be unlikely to damage the ROM chip.This same general format was flexible enough that it lasted through the mid-90s, the capacity of the ROM chip continuing to grow as the associated tech improved, and the capabilities of the central console hardware that used these cartridges became more sophisticated. Upgrades were slowly added to the innards of the plastic case, as well, including things like battery backups that enabled saved games, and the Super Nintendo's Super FX chip, which enabled 3D graphics that would have otherwise been impossible with the contemporary state of the art.The next generation of gaming consoles relied on another medium, though, and one that had several benefits over the long-lived game cartridge.CD-ROM discs, which were flat, circular, and contained information that was encoded and read with lasers, had been around in some form since the late-1980s, and were even used in a few early gaming consoles, like the PC Engine CD-ROM, which barely anyone bought, and the Sega-CD add-on for the Sega Genesis, and 3DO consoles, which a few more, but still relatively few people purchased.The release of the first Sony Playstation, now known as the PS1, in 1994 changed that, though, and this shift was partially the result of Sony's impressive game lineup, but was also due to the strength of the CD medium. Each CD-ROM could hold 650-700 MB of information, which was more than 100-times the capacity of the competing Nintendo 64's cartridges.There were downsides to this new standard; CD-ROMs were less durable than plastic-encased cartridges, and they were very slow to load, as well, because information stored in ROM chips could be more or less instantly booted, while the info stored on discs had to be spun up and read first, resulting in sluggish load screens throughout the gaming experience, and especially on the initial boot-up of the system.That said, the far superior storage, and the dramatically reduced cost of these laser-etched discs—cartridges could cost $15-20 apiece to manufacture, while CD-ROMs often cost pennies apiece—that triggered a rapid transition in the gaming world to this new medium. Handheld consoles stuck with cartridges for a lot longer, due to the nature of the use-case and difficulties associated with trying to use spinning discs in portable hardware, but everyone else moved to discs pretty rapidly, after Sony proved the utility of the model, and many aspects of video gaming were upgraded as a result of all that additional storage capacity.That capacity continued to grow as CD-ROM were replaced with DVDs, which could hold 4.7-8.5 GB per disc, again, up from 650-700 MB; the industry made that change in the years 2000 and 2001, with the PS2 and Xbox consoles. And then in 2006, the PS3 moved to Blu-ray discs, which could hold a whopping 25-50 GB per disc, once again resetting gaming expectations—though Xbox stuck with DVDs, and Nintendo's Wii, Wii U, and Gamecube consoles used proprietary disc formats that had a lot lower capacity compared to their competition.Leading into the 2010s, even those Blu-rays were straining under the weight of some big-name, AAA games, some of which required multiple discs and mandatory hard drive installs from those discs, because the scope of these gaming worlds and their high-end graphics required just a stunning amount of space.Video game companies had already started making the shift to digital products in the early 2000s, though, Xbox Live Arcade and the Playstation Store emerging in 2005 and 2006 respectively, and Steam, which popped up in 2003, was making digital downloads for games common on PCs several years earlier.Digital became even more popular in the 20-teens, and in 2020, digital sales of console games surpassed physical sales for the first time. The PS5 and Xbox Series S shipped console versions without disc drives for the first time, and many physical games became basically methods of checking a game's license, to ensure it's not pirated, because the discs installed the game on the console's hard drive, just like a download, anyway.What I'd like to talk about today is the perhaps natural next step in this transition: a recent announcement by Sony that they'll no longer be making disc-based Playstation games beginning in 2028, and why some critics are calling this a worrying and anti-consumer move.—On July 1, 2026, Sony announced that's it's going all-in on digitally delivered games. It will halt production of game discs beginning in January of 2028, and after that, customers will only be able to purchase new games digitally, via their Playstation Store and retailers.This follows another recent announcement by game company Rockstar Games that their massively anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI game, which is set to hit digital shelves on November 19 of this year, will not be available on disc at all; it will be downloadable, and the physical copies customers can buy in stores won't be physical copies at all: it will be a box with a download code inside, which amounts to the same thing—you use the code to download the game, exactly the same as if you had bought it online, but with packaging for that code.That's a big deal because the Grand Theft Auto series is one of the biggest and most popular series in gaming history; other game makers have been scrambling to adjust their own release dates so as not to overlap with this new, highly anticipated game's release; it's expected to be an absolutely massive moment in the gaming world when this new entry in the series finally lands.That said, the writing has been on the wall for the transition to digital games for a while, now. Game company Capcom recently announced that 93% of its game sales were digital in its last fiscal year, and other companies have reported similar numbers; it's currently around 85% for Sony. As a result, many consoles are now shipping models without disc drives, and some, like the recently announced Steam Machine, don't even have a disc-drive version.Digital games are also cheaper to make because the company behind them only has to provide download keys, rather than having to pay some amount for each and every physical item produced, packaged, and shipped, and these companies, and the retailers that sell their games, will never run out of a popular game, which might otherwise be an issue for big released like the aforementioned Grand Theft Auto.There are quite a few downsides to the digitization of games, though, including that in many cases, you don't actually own the games you buy, you just own a license to download and play them. That means if licensing changes, or the storefront through which you bought a game closes, you will likely lose access to that game you bought, without getting any kind of refund.If your account is banned or you lose access to your account for some reason, all your games will suddenly be inaccessible, too. If you don't have access to the internet, allowing your console to phone home and check to make sure you're not pirating things on a regular basis, that might also mean no gaming for you.Almost always, you can't sell or trade digital games, while physical games allow for a thriving secondary market, often allowing gamers to buy old discs and cartridges decades after a game was released, and often for far lower prices. Many of these games can even be played by later consoles that have back-compatibility.Doing away with discs and other physical media is great for companies like Sony, then, because they no longer have to pay to create the individual discs, no longer have to pay for the drives that play the discs, so the price of making consoles drops a bit, and it also means that secondary market for games goes away: if you want to play old games, you have to buy them from Sony, and all those used games already on the secondary market, or a game disc borrowed from a friend, are no longer competition for them, serving as alternatives to the digital version they'd prefer to sell you.Another bigger-picture concern here, though, is that this will make game preservation efforts a lot more difficult, and for many of the same reasons it will make maintaining a library and back-catalog of games difficult for consumers.Often, when a video game store shuts down, either for economic reasons or because it sells content for devices that are no longer maintained, those games and other content also go away. Sometimes they can remain on those older devices, and sometimes the digital rights management software, the DRM in that content and on those devices auto-deletes games from the hardware.Right now, for instance, Sony is saying that after it halts digital sales of PS3 and Vita games, that halting taking place over the next year, players will still be able to download their previously purchased content for the foreseeable future. That ‘foreseeable future' phrasing is doing a lot of work, there, though, and historically this kind of shut down has eventually become a full shut down, a lot of games, those that haven't been carried over to new stores to be played as vintage options on newer consoles, have simply disappeared; maybe still existing on some old hardware somewhere, if it wasn't deleted by DRM, but maybe not. In either case, preserving that software for historic research and archiving purposes becomes very difficult and expensive, at least compared to archiving the same game on a disc or cartridge.That closure of the PS3 and Vita stores, for example, is expected to result in the loss of about 2,200 digital-only games that will no longer be available for purchase, and of those, about 138 are not available on any other platform, and will thus essentially disappear.This game industry concern echoes larger concerns about what's called a digital dark age: a moment in time, maybe just a few years, maybe a few decades long during which a whole lot of the content that was created and available, disappears, possibly because of outdated file formats, maybe because the storage mediums that were used didn't hold up over time, or possibly because the data from the era was somehow corrupted, encrypted, or decayed.There's concern that a whole lot of information from the early personal computing era will disappear from historical records, for instance, because the floppy disks on which a lot of that information was stored are obsolete and thus increasingly difficult to access; few people have hardware that allows them to use floppy disks, these days.CD-ROMs, DVDs, and other optical discs are also a concern because of so-called disc rot, which refers to the chemical degradation of this storage medium. Many such discs are prone to failure because of light damage, the oxidation of their reflective layer, and the de-bonding of the adhesive that was used to hold the disc's multiple layers together.A lot of seemingly archival media might then degrade, even after being stored in a seemingly long-term fashion, which could also contribute to a dark age moment, a whole period's worth of data and entertainment and art lost because the CDs and DVDs on which they were stored simply fell apart before they could be converted to a longer-form medium. This could serve as an argument in favor of digitization, then, because many of the mediums on which these games are currently stored might degrade, anyway, and moving them to hard drives, rather than discs, could serve as a superior long-term home.That said, the concern with digitizing everything is similar, in that media made available for online purchase is simply stored in a hard drive somewhere else on the planet. If something happens to the data centers in which these games are stored, or those data centers are needed for another, more profitable purpose, or a bunch of them are destroyed in a conflict, that could result in the same outcome as disc rot and the storage of data in formats that are no longer accessible.It also makes these games susceptible to economics, though, because if the company behind them decides it's time to move on, there won't be physical copies archivists can scoop up and save; they could try to download these games, but often the nature of the software, of the DRM that keeps them from being pirated, hinders or prevents such efforts.The digitization of gaming and the shift away from physical copies of games seems to be inevitable at this point, and there are a lot of good economic, technological, and convenience reasons for it.There are quite a few downsides to this evolution as well, though, including those that negatively impact game consumers, alongside many of the same issues that threaten other types of media and data. And we don't, technologically or civilizationally, have solutions for those problems yet. And that gap could someday result in massive gulfs in our knowledge and documentation of this moment in video gaming history.Show Noteshttps://blog.archive.org/2026/04/23/gone-but-not-forgotten-recovering-the-dead-web/https://www.engadget.com/2207297/playstation-just-struck-a-hammer-blow-to-game-preservation/https://www.engadget.com/forza-horizon-4-will-be-pulled-from-digital-stores-and-game-pass-in-december-134510642.htmlhttps://arstechnica.com/gaming/2023/03/why-game-archivists-are-dreading-this-months-3ds-wii-u-eshop-shutdown/https://www.engadget.com/2205792/sony-will-stop-making-disc-based-playstation-games-starting-2028/https://www.engadget.com/2207546/sony-repurposing-austrian-playstation-disc-factory/https://www.engadget.com/2206315/xbox-is-reportedly-testing-a-way-to-digitize-your-disc-based-games/https://www.engadget.com/2205792/sony-will-stop-making-disc-based-playstation-games-starting-2028/https://www.theverge.com/report/960173/microsoft-xbox-disc-to-digital-feature-physical-game-collectionhttps://www.theverge.com/games/956389/grand-theft-auto-6-gta-digital-code-in-box-physical-gameshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_dark_agehttps://longnow.org/ideas/shining-a-light-on-the-digital-dark-age/https://www.americanscientist.org/article/avoiding-a-digital-dark-agehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_video_game_consoleshttps://www.videogameconsolelibrary.com/history-of-game-media/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_rot This is a public episode.

Alex and Luke Talk Sonic the Hedgehog 2.Speed was the promise. Trauma was the water level. Developed by Sega Technical Institute and published by Sega, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 launched for the Sega Genesis in November 1992 and cemented Sonic as Mario's true '90s rival. With the debut of Tails, the spin dash, bigger levels, and an even louder attitude, Sonic 2 became one of the defining platformers of its era. Three decades later, it remains a fascinating snapshot of the console wars—equal parts brilliant, frustrating, and unmistakably Sega.At the time of recording, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 holds a Metacritic score of 83. According to HowLongToBeat, the main story averages around 2.5 hours, though that's assuming you're actually making it through Death Egg Zone. As Alex and Luke quickly rediscover, Sonic wants you to go fast... while constantly punishing you for doing exactly that. Save states? No judgment here.Alex played on an original Sega Genesis, the Mega SG, and an Anbernic RG Arc D  while Luke tackled the game on a Sega Genesis Mini. Alex rolled credits—with a healthy assist from modern conveniences—while Luke bowed out before the finish line after reliving enough childhood trauma to satisfy him. Along the way, the brothers revisit the Genesis vs. Super Nintendo rivalry, debate whether Sonic 3 is secretly the superior game, and marvel at just how strange Sonic's world becomes once you leave Green Hill behind.This episode is unofficially brought to you in part by little kid bikes. Whether they're balance bikes, pedal bikes, or training wheels, watching your kid discover two wheels for the first time never gets old.Audio Credits:"Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Main Theme)" from the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Original Soundtrack — composed by Masato Nakamura — © Sega.Original theme music owned by Low Five Gaming.Send us a Voice Message.

An exuberant, behind-the-scenes look at the designers and the company that brought us Mario, Zelda, Pokémon, and so much more, illuminating Nintendo's singular ethos, its massive cultural impact, and the innovative solutions behind its creative triumphsWhat magical mushroom could have turned an unassuming playing card company into one of the dominant cultural forces of the twenty-first century?In Super Nintendo, lifelong gamer and a renowned video games journalist Keza MacDonald traces Nintendo back to its quirky beginnings in 1889. Leaping from game to game, she tells the remarkable story of the people who brought us Super Mario Bros., Zelda, Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Splatoon, and more—not to mention the SNES, N64, Game Boy, Wii, Switch, and a host of other wacky gizmos—and charts the delights they've offered over the decades. MacDonald draws on private interviews with icons like Shigeru Miyamoto, the creator of Mario, who continues to leave his stamp on the company, and takes readers on a trip to the secretive Nintendo HQ—making her one of the few Western journalists to have set foot inside the building. Along the way, she provides a close-up look at the company's willingness to take risks and place long-term success over short-term profits.A carousel of wonders, Super Nintendo whisks you back to the couch in the den, a controller in your hands for the very first time, staring up at a screen of infinite possibilities.

BGMania B-Sides #49 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bedroth turns his attention to Terranigma, the beloved Super Nintendo action RPG developed by Quintet and published by Enix. Requested and curated by Executive Producer Xancu, this episode celebrates one of the most cherished hidden gems of the 16-bit era. While Terranigma never received an official North American release, its ambitious storytelling, memorable world-building, and emotional soundtrack have earned it a passionate following among RPG fans for decades. As the penultimate installment of the B-Sides series before it reaches its conclusion with Episode #50, this episode serves as both a tribute to a remarkable game and a reminder of the many overlooked soundtracks that have found a home on the show. Composed by Miyoko Takaoka and Masanori Hikichi, Terranigma's music effortlessly captures the wonder of creation, the weight of loss, and the excitement of exploration through a diverse collection of melodies that remain just as powerful today as they were in 1995.

Essa semana Jurandir Filho, Felipe Mesquita, Evandro de Freitas e Bruno Carvalho retornam com mais um episódio da série 2-Pak, agora dedicada a explorar duplas de jogos disponíveis no portátil R36S. Desta vez, Evandro e Bruno assumem os controles para apresentar duas pérolas que merecem muito mais atenção: Bonkers e Pulseman.Bonkers (SNES): Baseado no personagem da Disney, o jogo surpreende com uma aventura de plataforma extremamente divertida, colorida e cheia de personalidade. Evandro relembra como Bonkers consegue capturar toda a energia dos desenhos animados dos anos 90 enquanto entrega uma experiência sólida e injustamente esquecida do Super Nintendo. Pulseman (Mega Drive): Desenvolvido pela Game Freak antes da explosão mundial de Pokémon, o jogo coloca você no controle de um herói capaz de manipular eletricidade em fases rápidas e criativas. Bruno explica por que Pulseman é considerado por muitos uma das maiores joias escondidas do Mega Drive, combinando visual impressionante, trilha sonora marcante e mecânicas que pareciam estar à frente de seu tempo.Esse é mais um podcast da nossa série 2-Pak!⭐ Quer mais 99Vidas?

In this episode of The Jonathan Wier Show, Jonathan and co-host Cody Akins tackle the upcoming NFL schedule release (Thursday, May 14th at 7 PM CT) and debate which team they want the Chiefs to open against. Cody wants the Jets for an easy motivational win, but Jonathan argues for the Seahawks — repossess their banner on banner night and give Kenneth Walker his revenge game. The conversation pivots to a bigger problem: the NFL is becoming the world's biggest mall. With games now scattered across Netflix, Peacock, Prime, Paramount+, YouTube, and Netflix again, Jonathan argues the league is sacrificing its big-box-store accessibility for greed. He doesn't mind games on different days — but the fragmentation across paid services is going to cost them casual fans. The guys then debate the Star Fox 64 remake for Switch 2. Cody is genuinely excited (and hopeful it signals an Ocarina of Time remake for Zelda's 40th anniversary). Jonathan sees it as another nostalgia trap — Nintendo knows aging millennials will buy it no matter how much they complain, the same playbook George Lucas ran with the Star Wars Special Editions in the '90s. They close on tech policy: Utah trying to ban VPNs (unenforceable and ignores how cellular IPs work), and Meta rolling out AI age verification because kids are bypassing checks with mustaches, hats, haircuts, and makeup. Jonathan's takeaway — parents need to stop delegating parenting to the government. Talk to your kids. Block sites on your router. Do the work.
