It’s really easy to fall into this rut with Video Games right now. Every podcast episode this year has brought in this frivolous bout of yoga where we try not to take y’all TOO deep into Bummertown™, lest we risk forever remaining within its shitty doom-dome and get gypsy-cursed to forever scroll through Grummz’s feed on Twitter, A Clockwork Orange-style, or some shit.
This is why we have found ourselves championing the phrase “Video Games can still be fun, and all you have to do is to keep looking” lately—so much so that we decided to put our money where our mouth is and do a nice little episode where we give our own shotgun course towards Retro Video Games—specifically what games to check out and various methods to check them out.
The cast this week is Ed, George, and our special guest, Ten, who is an indie game and indie book reviewer for The Cosmic Circus, and co-host of the Hold On, Let Me Save podcast, where they’ll discuss the various equipment, displays, emulators, and uhhh, games that folks should still boot up to play from the last forty years or so of video games. So grab your Anbernics and your Steam Decks, and get ready to add a bunch of HAMSTER releases to your wishlist as we do a fun little show to remind everyone that yes, video games rule. No amount of Generative AI and brain-dead corporate greed can ever take that away from any of you—enjoy the show!
