CONSOLE STORY XII w/ Mikolai (Forgotten Worlds)

Welcome to Pixels and Polygons, part of the Sound Stone Network. This is a conversational podcast hosted by Darren Hupke. It features a rotating cast of guests each week and captures a conversation on a set gaming topic. Each episode starts with an introduction of the guest and an icebreaker; then, we answer a single gaming question. Short and sweet! It’s the perfect “podcast-between-podcasts!” This week’s topic is… What is one of your favorite gaming systems? When did you get it? Tell us the story. What are some of your favorite memories, games, or details about it? My guest this week is: Mikolai from Forgotten Worlds! Mikolai is behind the website, social media accounts, and zine, Forgotten Worlds. It is a celebration of classic video game magazines, and a magazine about old video game magazines.
