Brad from Arcadiology helps us mine for rare gems looking at two games from Treasure, Gunstar Heroes (Genesis, 1993) and Sin and Punishment (N64, 2000), as part of Mike and Jaymo’s epic quest to research and review every retro game in the Nintendo Switch Online catalog!
In this episode we look at how Treasure cut their teeth with McDonalds, what giant robots and kaiju can teach us about dealing with loss, and why it is that Sin and Punishment has the weirdest grip on the Nintendo 64 controller we’ve seen.
Thanks for listening, and a very special thanks to Kristal Fields of The Lazy Circles for our catchy new theme song!
