Remember The Game? Retro Gaming Podcast Adam Blank

We have over 600 bonus podcasts in our Patreon archives at this point, so I like to toss a freebie on here now and then, and honestly I need this week off to deal with some real-life stuff, so this'll make sure you hot dogs get your weekly fix. We've done a few game draft episodes now (our SNES and NES drafts are available here on the RTG feed) and they always go over well, so I thought I'd toss our Sega Genesis draft up here this week. I join 3 regular RTG guests, and we each draft 10 Genesis games to try to build the best library possible!

The more I play Metroid, and the more I play the GBA, the more I like them. So Metroid ON the GBA? Perfection And that's a word I might use to describe this week's game - Metroid: Zero Mission.

People have been screaming at me to play this one ever since we reviewed the original NES Metroid a couple years ago, and I finally see why. This is a full-blown remake of Samus' first game. Everything frustrating about the original version is gone, and everything new is awesome. I'm a fan of all the Metroid games I've played so far, but this stacks up against the best of the best.

My guest this week is our resident Metroid master, my buddy Daniel. We went over everything the fixed, everything they added, and everything that makes Zero Mission great this week. Minor spoilers for one segment are coming, but you should have already played this damned game anyway!

And before we go bounty hunting, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!

This week, someone asks me what my 3 gaming wishes would be. Will I ever review a card game on the show? And what do I know of Red Dead 2??

Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 GBA games based on Nintendo IPs: Wario Land 4, Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, and Kirby and the Amazing Mirror.

I've slowly been checking out all the movies from the 80's and 90's that I missed growing up, and this week we're talking about quite possibly the worst AND the best of the bunch in Street Fighter: The Movie.

From the horrendous acting (aside from Raul Julia as M. Bison), to the stupid character backstories, I love EVERYTHING about this movie. A classic "it's so bad it's good" flick, and honestly one of my favourite "old" movies I've watched since I started down this cinematic road.

My guest this week is our resident fighting game junkie, Mike The Ref. I asked him to explain to a noob like me if any of this is actually canon to the Street Fighter universe, and we had a great time laughing the good (Bison), the bad (Guile), and the ugly (Ken) that was Street Fighter: The Movie.

And before we fight in the streets, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!

This week, someone asks me what the last game on the planet is that I would review on this show. Would I ever consider reviewing games that were never ported to America? And what do I like about being Canadian?

Plus we play a rare round of 'WATCH One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 crappy gaming movies: Tekken, Double Dragon, and Mortal Kombat.

I've made the decision to start skipping one Wednesday per month for RTG. I just can't keep up the schedule of playing one game per week, so I'll start giving away a freebie early every month to give myself a little time to catch up. This week, we're talking about the baddest of the bad and debating which 4 baddies deserve to have their ugly mugs carved into the side of the Mt. Rushmore of gaming villains.

And you can find Andrew's Twitch hiking over at:

Little Nemo: The Dream Master is unquestionably the single most requested game in RTG history, albeit by 2 people. It's a charming little NES platformer where you feed animals candy until they pass out, and then you wear their skin. Seriously.

If it sounds kinda messed up, well, it is. But it's also a really fun, kinda tough NES game, and it's made by Capcom, so it has to be decent at worst. I remember seeing it in magazines as a kid, and renting it a couple times. I used to think it was too hard, but playing it now I find it most beatable (that final level is pretty rough). Getting to play as the various animals is cool, and hey, who doesn't love poisonous candy?

My guest this week is the man that has been on me to cover this game for 5+ years, long-time hot dog, Awright/Andrew. I asked him why he loves this game so much, and we ranked the various animal costumes, went through all the levels, and made fun of how fucked up the premise of the game is. This was a good time.

And before we feed animals candy, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!

This week, someone asks me for Steam Deck recommendations. What's a good game for someone to try tactical RPGs with? And how often do people make bad puns with my last name??

Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 lesser-known Capcom NES games: Strider, Code Name: Viper, and Bionic Commando.
