Little WYSPer - PS2 Retrospective

Little WYSPer - Romeo Is A Dead Man Spoilercast

A couple buds and I wanted to yap for a couple hours about the roller coaster ride of an action game that is Romeo Is A Dead Man, the latest punk piece of insanity from Grasshopper Manufacture led by the eclectic Goichi Suda. I'm planning on doing more Little WYSPer content, including video-exclusive material so please subscribe to my YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@WYSPPod]!

Little WYSPer - PS2 Retrospective

For its 25th anniversary, a couple buds and I reminisced about the legendary piece of hardware and accompanying game library that is the PS2. Over a few small beers, of course.

Little WYSPer - Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Spoilercast

Welcome to the debut episode of Little WYSPer! Once in a while a game comes along and doesn't just meet expectations but absolutely smashes them. Such is the case with the exquisite Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. It's a truly special experience that left me thinking about it days and weeks after I finished it. That amount of time pondering left me with much to discuss, which is why I had to recruit two friends who thought likewise join me in such a discussion.What were our expectations going into it? What did we love about the combat? Which characters were our favorites inside and outside of it? What were our favorite story beats? What was our ending choice, and why? That and more on this nearly 3-hour episode! And the music. Oh, the music... (chef's kiss) magnifique. For more from my friends, check out their content!

Episode 17 - Nintendo Switch Online

With the release of the successor to the Nintendo Switch, my dear friend Sean Mason and I wanted to run through the very underappreciated Nintendo Switch Online library to provide our dear listeners with some more under-the-radar picks. What's a must-play? What are other recommendations? Moreover, what's a game we'd like to see be added to the service? We answer all those for each platform - along with some recommendations from our friends. Sean is the co-host of the awesome Backlog Brainrot [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/backlog-brainrot/id1561028177] and Games Over Plastic [https://www.youtube.com/@GamesOverPlastic] podcasts. Please check them out!

Episode 16 - Bug Fables

The first mainline episode of the year returns to where it all began: with my true dear friend Sean Mason to wax poetically about Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling, a Paper Mario homage he holds in such high regard as among his top 10 games of all time. Mr. Mason provides an academic lecture on its similarities and differences to the Paper Mario franchise. We then discuss the dynamic turn-based-timing combat that allows for a variety of approaches. On top of that, we analyze the story setup with the trio of deep layered characters and the extensive lore of the surprisingly deep world they're a part of. Amidst all of this is a plethora of side content (a good portion of which I missed!) filling out a surprisingly layered map. I'm not from Buenos Aires, and I say play the game!
