A proposito di questo titolo

You've got yourself a podcast which gives all sorts of insight into the games of the Sega eight bit era. Even if you know the Sega Master System, the Mark III or the Game Gear, there may very well be a lot of games from around the world you don't know about, but I can help with that.

Descriptions and reviews of various games, explanations of licenced properties, comparison to other versions and arcade sources, trivia about the games, perhaps the occasional personal story here and there.. there's a lot to get through, and I'd be glad if you'd join me.

    Notes on the episode

    The "Phanta! Phantasy Star 30th Anniversary Cosplay" and interviews book is actually a doujinshi by someone called Memi Aizawa as far as I can tell. An example of a site selling it, that I'm not recommending but at least proves the books exists is at https://tinyurl.com/ps30doujin

    Introducin' clip from The Big Lebowski.
