Electronic Game Fair: A Let’s Play Podcast Matt Morrison

It's been a while, but we're back with an episode on the N64 action platformer Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon. We find plenty to enjoy in the game's unique sense of humor and hefty technical achievements. Before that though, we've got a hefty segment of other games we've been playing, featuring Tears of the Kingdom spoiler talk, a shocking twist from Eric, and a very special guest!

Next Episode: Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon

This month we played the 2020 indie RPG Omori, and definitely had some feelings about its combat, dark plot beats, and unique setting. On top of that, it's been months since we recorded an episode, so we have a TON of other games to talk about at the top of the show.

All aboard for this month's episode on the Nintendo Switch train line simulator Densha de Go! Hashiro Yamanote Line. Ride the rails with us as we discuss the ridiculous optional controllers, navigating Japanese menu screens, and pleasing all our rail fans by tooting our horn. It's a weird one, folks!



Next month: Omori for the Nintendo Switch and PC

Our game this month is The Missing: JJ Macfield and the Island of Memories, the 2018 puzzle platformer from Japanese indie designer Swery65. The game mixs lots of heady topics in its narrative with an unusual style of gameplay, but do the 2 halves add up to a satisfying whole?

This month we discuss Live A Live, a beloved SNES RPG with ideas far ahead of its time. We all played the 2022 Switch remake, and have thoughts on its unique gameplay structure, new art style, and some questionable voice acting.

It's time to talk about our favorite games we played in 2022! But first we take some time to introduce you to each of our personal canons, the games we think really define our tastes throughout the years. Join us for our longest {and most personal) episode to date.

A programming note: We've got our JJ Macfield and Densha De Go episodes in the can, but due to scheduling haven't recorded Live A Live yet, so the next couple episodes might come out in a shuffled order. It'll be a fun surprise!
