Early access: Retronauts 118 - SEGA arcade history pt. 3
Added 2017-09-25 15:54:17 +0000 UTCWell, it looks like we crossed some wires on episode numbering, so uh here's episode 118 to follow up last week's episode 119. Eh heh, heh.
This latest Retronauts East entry sees us once again going over SEGA's arcade output in second gear. We've previously tackled their works up through 1985 in one episode and 1986-87 in a second; this time we take one step forward and explore their arcade releases through the end of the β80s. (Yeah, 1990 was technically the β80s. It's a goofy semantic thing with calendar numeration, what can ya do.) We hit a bunch of classics and semi-classics this time around, from the well-known (Altered Beast) to the cult favorite (Galaxy Force II) to the more-deserving-of-fame-than-it's-received (Gain Ground). Some solid stuff this week, and a lively conversation. Plus music from a bunch of the games in question, including some tunes ripped directly from the recent vinyl release of Altered Beast. Enjoy! β Jeremy

2017-09-26 19:25:03 +0000 UTCMuseum of Moving Image is secretly one of the most fun museums in New York. It lies in Queens! They have shows dedicated to cool guys like Jim Henson and Chuck Jones, video game retrospectives, plus often screen rad movies like Akira and Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
