fantastic episode; learned about some games i wasn't aware of, and the ending bits about what projects they'd all like to see had Moon & Segaga both, which was cool to hear. this really was a great topic.
edit retro game challenge 2, damn
Yeah! I was disappointed when I looked at the song list and it seemed like nothing newer than Mother 3 would get out there. And then...
Ray has known about it longer than I did, but I had no idea he was such a Lovedelic fan! He namedropped a ton of their games.
AND THEN HE DROPPED THE FOREST OF BEGINNING (an "adventure" graphic adventure by Pax Softnica, the Shin Onigashima and Yuyuki people).
This is why he's the best.
MOON TRANSLATION UPDATE: It is in basically done (1 major bug, a few items) and in beta. Does anyone want to beta test? I'm stuck until January. That's the only thing preventing its release. (I should say that I although I did rip off Nico Nico Doga and then rip my own soundtracks and upload them all to YouTube, I did not help with this translation. I'm just its herald.)
Bob's wrestling knowledge is growing. He knew about David Schultz and what a Power Bomb is. Add that to his prior knowledge of an RKO and he's just a Yappa Pie away from being a wrestling aficionado.
I feel like matching Fire Pro Wrestling stand-ins for their real-life counterparts seems like exactly the sort of thing he'd like, to be fair.
I'm probably going to try Famicom Detective Club 2 on my phone or something. Game looks super interesting.
Just expect a traditional Japanese-style graphic adventure game rather than the pacing of Spike's/Chunsoft's/Capcom's, and you will really love the series.
You would also really enjoy Wonder Project J 1 and 2.
