Stuart: Wahey! No sooner have I put out one collection of dual interviews in Making of Karateka / Double Dragon Gaiden, I’m straight back in with another double feature, and this one’s a doozy. As well as chatting with the returning Tomm Hulett about his career and the upcom...

Diamond Feit here, happy holidays everyone! Here it is listeners, our last community podcast of 2023. It's also our longest (by far) and it's our first to feature not one but TWO guests: regular cohort 2023-12-24 12:00:04 +0000 UTC View Post
The holidays are here once again, which means it's time for all you listeners to take your thirteenth trip to Parts Unknown for yet another exploration of a Yuletide-related video game creation. And this time around, we're examining the Pac-Man Christmas Album: a collection of holiday songs and s...

December 17, 1993: X, the Everything Robot
by Diamond Feit
Jeremy: You asked for it... well, actually, maybe you didn't. But we did it anyway. We have followed up at long last on Episode 445, the Mario 2D Ranking Hootenanny, in a new dimension. The third dimension! Now, this is not about Mario games with 3D graphics; it is about Mario games that...

Jeremy: I hope this episode doesn't come off as too self-indulgent, but at some point we realized that Retronauts speaks to authors about their books on video game history pretty often... and here we are, with a whole bunch of published authors who show up weekly on this very podcast. So...

December 10, 1993: *racks shotgun* "Moon's haunted"

Nadia: This month on Retronauts, Nadia still can't shut up about comic books. Doesn't she know those things are full of violence and filth?! Just look at the Mega Man comic series Archie ran through the '10s!
We jest, we jest. Not about Mega Man and comics, though. We're v...

December 2, 2013: Wubba lubba dub dub!!
by Diamond Feit
So far, we've given many Mushroom Kingdom residents their own episodes. And while Luigi, Princess Peach, and Toad have all received Retronauts representation, we've somehow neglected the surly, shelled, series antagonist, Bowser. Since his inception nearly 40 years ago, he's gone through several ...

Stuart:Kick, punch, it’s all in the mind. No, obviously that’s a different thing, though kicks and punches to the head could obscurely be described as a blow to the mind. And speaking of mindblowing, this episode of (checks notes)Retronauts packs in two interviews about two ...

As the past decade of Five Nights at Freddy's has taught us, kids love horror. But before all the kiddos out there had the opportunity to look up the most stomach-churning images and videos in creation just by picking up mommy's cell phone, one question arose: How do you sell highly inap...
