1x23 Play- Teenage Mutant Ninja NONSENSE
A couple notes off the bat. First, we had some pretty serious static for the first 5 minute or so. We got it corrected, but we promise it isn't the whole episode. Second, the first game we discuss in this podcast, Stanley: The Search for Dr. Livingston, has a great many racist tropes and art choices. We condemn these in the strongest possible terms even as we cover them for this podcast.
Alright. There. Notes are all done. It's a week of games with short and easy names:
Stanley: The Search for Dr. Livingstone
Rainbow Islands: The Story of Bubble Bauble II
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: The Manhattan Project
Galaxy 5,000: Racing in the 51st Century
Cabal (Ok, this one isn't bad)

Check it out, have a listen, play along, reach out via our Facebook page The NES-essary Podcast.
*No one, certainly not our (or probably your) mothers, has ever called us this.
1x22 Play Godzilla KING OF THE COURT
Kaiju? Basketball? Other...games? If that's what you're into, we've got an episode for you. Sights to delight! Sounds to astound! Old NES GAMES AGAIN! Alright. I think that about does it. PEACE.

Episode 1x20 - Play - The Thing We Never Planned On
Here is a play episode, you know, we got an ol' play episode for you. And this one at half bad, we played Dig Dug II where you blow little monsters up literally with a bike pump, and Robowarrior or the latest iteration of Legend of Zelda, and Super Team Games because Josiah and I don't plan on stuff, and Solar Jetman which is someone's most obscure favorite game of all time, and the last (please please) the last Indiana Jones game. Enjoy!
