    Alien Vs. Predator - Episode 161

    Pastblaster finally gets his flowers as we cover one of his favorite games - Capcom's excellent three-player beat 'em up, Alien Vs. Predator. Where does Alien Vs. Predator rank on the list of all-time arcade beat 'em ups? Are you familiar with the Vela Incident of 1979? How did comics lead directly to this game (and a movie that we'd rather not mention)? Did Christmas come early for Jarrod with a Neo Geo miracle? And we got listener questions! What is an arcade or pinball game where if we changed one element it would be perfect for us? In what may be our favorite listener question ever… if The Muppets made a Street Fighter movie, which muppet would be cast in which part? And in the final, related question: what is our favorite Muppets movie?

  2. Rampage - Episode 160

    Rampage - Episode 160

    We return to our normally scheduled broadcast to tear into one of the best 3-player and 80s games ever made - Rampage by Bally Midway. Did Rampage lay out the landscape for future sandbox video games? Can you tell the difference between Ralph Wolf and Wile E. Coyote? What led to the long-standing partnership between game designers Brian Colin and Jeff Nauman? Did we really just go around the moon or is it just one more elaborate hoax as the YouTubers claim? (Editor's note: stop it. We definitely went around the moon.) We also answer these vital listener questions: which two fighting game characters from different fighting game franchises would you watch a Heated Rivalry-like TV series about, have we ever had a game that we didn't buy after being discouraged by the maintenance required to keep it running, and what was the animated movie we watched the most as children?

  3. The Three Stooges - Episode 159

    4월 1일

    The Three Stooges - Episode 159

    While the episode title could be interpreted as a comment about the three knuckleheaded hosts, we're taking a very foolish look at the little known Mylstar arcade game The Three Stooges in Brides is Brides. Why is this game so intent on players wiggling men's joysticks? How does a game based on a property made 50 years before the game's release play 45 years after it came out? Did this game stay true to the Three Stooges spirit? What happens if we don't have a lot of content on a game and have to end an episode early? Pay no attention to the episode release date. Unrelated to that… hello everybody and welcome to Pindouken, Podoukenbayo, Pod-do-you-believe-ken, Gachapodouken, or Rankdouken (name still being workshopped). Join the Podouken Discord and tell us which subject the Podouken crew should tackle next.

  4. Armored Warriors - Episode 158

    Armored Warriors - Episode 158

    In the world of three-player arcade beat 'em ups Capcom is king. But which of their games reign supreme? In this episode we're talking about the build-a-mech brawler Armored Warriors! Is Armored Warriors the closest we'll ever get to an Exo Squad arcade game? What is the quarter mile time of a Night Fury Nissan GTR and how much horsepower does it have? Did Rob turn traitor while watching Olympic hockey? How did this game spawn a popular fighting game character? Listener questions asked this week include what was our first arcade machine and when did we buy it, what raster arcade would make an excellent vector, and what arcade or pop culture possession would you save if you could save only one.

  5. Turbo Force

    2월 25일

    Turbo Force

    In 1991 Video System released what is undeniably the best three-player vertical arcade shooter that retrofits Lamborghinis into flying vehicles that fight a giant Lexus in space - and 35 years later we're talking about it. Now get your butt in the Diablo(on) as we launch Turbo Force! With its blood selling for $60k per gallon is Turbo Force's giant horseshoe crab the most valuable boss in an arcade game? Does "C" stand for "Canada," "controversy," or "curling"? Did we have the opportunity to buy a famed arcade gaming IP and miss it? Is this the ultimate 90s Trapper Keeper game come to life? We get into the Olympics spirit by - in what may be a Podouken first - all picking the same winter sport to make into an arcade game. We also broadcast our favorite arcade announcers, explore our work ethic by answering if we just hang at the arcade business we own, and what rare games we would refuse to put out for public play.

  6. Ivan "Ironman" Stewart's Super Off Road

    2월 11일

    Ivan "Ironman" Stewart's Super Off Road

    Step right up and spin the wheels (all three of them) on the best stand-up racing game to feature a vague Marvel reference - Ivan "Ironman" Stewart's Super Off Road by the Leland Corporation. What is the true name of this game? Why does Rob sound like he gargled with razor blades? How many copies of Super Mario Advance can one person legally own? Was the Activator the worst gaming peripheral ever? Questions this week include which arcade PCBs have shot up in price and made us go, "huh, really, that game?"; and a three-parter: what is an arcade or pinball game that we love but don't recommend to others to play, that we would like to own but not play, and would like to play but don't want to own?

  7. Battletoads

    1월 28일

    Battletoads

    It's the start of the Three's Company series but instead of Jack, Janet, and Chrissy (it's an old joke, look it up) we're talking about Pimple, Rash, and Zitz who star in one of the best, but woefully undersupported, beat 'em ups to hit the arcades - the Rare and Electronics Arts collab, Battletoads. What insane decisions did Rare make to keep this game fresh? Which collects more dust: a navel or Jaz drive slot? How much profanity was removed from Battletoads prior to it hitting arcades? What was the name of that kids game show where they would run through the maze at the end and velcro games to their vest and helmet? Answers to this episode's listener questions include our arcade pick to take on a rampaging kaiju destroying our town, which arcade character has the best hat, and what the heck do we do for our day jobs.

  8. Half-Life 2: Survivor

    1월 14일

    Half-Life 2: Survivor

    This episode is about a game you've definitely heard of but likely never knew was an arcade game. Lemony Vengeance joins the show to talk about his efforts to keep this Valve and Taito arcade collaboration alive. We're talking Gordon Freeman, airboats, gravity guns and headcrabs as we discuss the super rare Half-Life 2: Survivor. How did Lemony bring this Survivor back from its Street Fighter tomb? Is the GabeCube coming to save us? Will there ever be a Half-Life 3? What are some of our scariest game pickups? We also answer some deeply personal arcade collecting questions like how many storage units we own and cover the joys of operating arcade and pinball games for the public.
