WTFamicom: A Gaming Podcast WTFamicom

In 1989, The Legend of Zelda was already one of the greatest video games of all time. That same year, the cartoon bearing its name unfortunately wasn't so lucky. Whose idea was it to make Link so annoying? Was Ganon always a boar who said one-liners? Is everyone in the voice cast dead? On today's bonus episode we do a live commentary of an episode of the Nintendo-disapproved cartoon. Join in and watch along by clicking the link below. Or don't - we can't Triforce you to do anything.

007! You know what those numbers mean and who they belong to. And if you were a kid in 1997, you definitely knew because it meant begging your parents to buy you a video game based on a two year old James Bond movie. Since we can't pay our parents back (I refuse to), we figured the next best thing was to talk about everyone's favorite Pierce Brosnan simulator - GOLDENEYE for the Nintendo 64! In today's episode we chat about multiplayer cheaters, fake sequels, and much more. So call up three ugly friends, order some nasty pizza, and put on your best suit because today YOU have a license to kill!

Fact - 1999 was THE best year for video games. This is not up for debate. With hard hitters like Final Fantasy VIII, Donkey Kong 64, Resident Evil 3 and even Shenmue, we as a species had peaked in creating playable perfection. But what other games came out that year? Was it more failures than franchises? On today's bonus episode, we chat about the gaming class of 1999 and other nonsense released before Y2K. Frost your tips and get ready to go back in time to when gaming on a 30" TV was a huge effin deal!

It's March Madness, so of course we made a bracket! But if you think we made it using college basketball teams, you're not going to like this episode. What's better than betting on sports teams? Betting on video games, of course! On today's slam dunk episode, we make video games battle it out and pick a winner based on reasons we don't actually remember. Does Halo make it to the Final Four? Will Rocket League be part of the Elite Eight? How can Simspons Arcade avoid being eliminated early? Follow along and let us know who you think should have won!

WARNING - severe weather has been reported in the area. Please advise if you are Mega Man or any other gaming character, stay indoors. Do not try to speedrun! For the past 30 years, harsh weather and natural disasters have played an integral part in gaming but whether they make sense even being there is another story - just ask Chris Redfield about that volcano he visited. On today's bonus episode we chat about video games that have been hindered by floods, snow, earthquakes and yup even Godzilla!

Doppelgangers suck! There's always some mirror character in a video game that wants to kill you and it really doesn't matter why. Maybe your name is Mario and someone you bullied gained weight and wants to destroy you in golf or tennis. Or maybe your name is Solid Snake and a clone of yours dressed like your dad's friend just to reveal he hates you. I mean, these things happen. On today's episode we talk all about gaming doubles, look-alikes, evil robots and more! So stare into a dirty bathroom mirror, count to five and get ready to be scared by an evil mustachioed YOU!
