Episode 127 - Smash TV

It's time to get some BIG PRIZES like a VCR, a vintage 1999 Roadster, or a brand new toaster! All you gotta do is risk your life in Smash TV!

Episode 126 - Spy Hunter

An early arcade game that got a close to perfect NES port, Spy Hunter was a fun high score challenge that is mostly forgotten about these days but the first NES game (along with the sequel) were some great fun!

Episode 125 - Mega Man X5

Mega Man returns to Afterglow in this episode with one of the controversial releases......do I follow with what many people claim is a sub-par release or do I have other thoughts on this game? Without spoiling it, I will say I played this game much later than a lot of others which may have tempered my opinions on it.

Bonus 10 - Retro Emulation Handhelds

It's been a bit of a wait for this episode, I've been quite busy with some family and work related stuff and have had to put the show in slowdown for a bit. I've got a few partial episodes ready but nothing fully done, but I wanted everyone to have something to listen to in the meanwhile so I figured it was the perfect time to do another bonus episode, this one on my history with retro emulation handhelds! I cover the ones I've had in my past (which is quite the list looking back on it!) along with me looking forward to the new one I have pre-ordered.
