chrisbid Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I don't get it. Retronauts openly admit they have little knowledge of pre-1985 video games. So why don't they bring on a guest host that has this knowledge/experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why don't they bring on a guest host that has this knowledge/experience? Yah I was gonna say, the retro truth finally comes out, they tend to stay 1985 or later. Chris Kohler was the "guest", he's not one of the usual gang, & offered some helpful info the show needed; it wouldve been their Atari episode where they basically said "we dont know much about this, consult this book for more, better info." One guy (Ray?) had nothing to offer & was quiet the whole time. & at least 2 of them sound the same. Best line is early on, Jeremy says something like "we never discussed ColecoVision because it's old" & Kohler's like "wait...what?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Ferg I missed having your show at work last night. I actually had to talk to my co-workers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1500 Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 You guys are really selling this Retronauts episode It's hard to sell commercialized retro gaming podcasts*. As you can tell, they don't even get considered for a Golden Poddie award. Grassroot podcasts all the way. * Commercialized retro gaming podcast: - a podcast where any host has ties to a gaming website and/or magazine.

S1500 Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 This week's crossover game: Hard Drivin' & Race Drivin'. Both NYPWP and Retro Domination have mentioned it. Me? I got the off-road penalty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbid Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I love how the stunt track has regular 2-way traffic, including 18 wheelers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nurmix Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I love how the stunt track has regular 2-way traffic, including 18 wheelers. Agreed. Hard Drivin' was awesome in the arcade. It sucked balls on my Atari ST. Fortunately, Stunt Track Racer was an excellent alternative. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1500 Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share Posted May 23, 2014 And on today's "It's a super small podcasting world", I'm listening to Gerry Stellenberg who I met & treated to dinner to talk pinball shop, being interviewed on Arcade Repair QA tips podcast.

Falconhood Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I was listening to the two newest podcasts of RETROGAMING RADIO, and when I went to look for the MAY podcast, i noticed that the APRIL and MARCH that I listened to were 2013...not 2014! What happened to them this last year? Did they change their name? I would like to hear the conclusion to Commodore 64 special, part 4, and etc. Untitled by SacredKnightOfTomorrow, on Flickr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 (edited) Yeah, that's Shane Monroe. He fell way behind schedule & I think now quit doing RGRadio altogether. I subbed to him until he got too far behind & seemed to dry up. I dont miss him much. The thing with doing a MONTHLY show is that it should release... MONTHLY. Listeners expect that. He's probably doing something right now that, later on someone else will get credit for, then he'll complain "I did that FIRST!" on his futuristic holocast. He invented Redbox y'know, & also did something on a computer he likened to electricity being discovered & the moon landing. (Man, I hope people dont think that says "Holocaust") Edited May 24, 2014 by RJ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falconhood Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I've only heard 2 of his Podcasts, and I liked both. Oh well. I have tons to catch-up on as it is. My iPad was FULL, and I have been listening overtime to get it UNFULL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbid Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 does he still sell the CDs for his old Retrogaming Radio? Those CGE interviews from around 2000 or so are fantastic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) Listening to the latest ColecoVisions show, I hear about upcoming homebrews: "So if you like Lady Bug or Mouse Trap..." "This game is similar to Xevious" "This is an Arkanoid clone" & I wonder, & NO OFFENSE MEANT, do we like/want homebrews? If they seem to be rehashes of existing games, why not stick with the originals? Do we want a Xevious or Arkanoid clone on Colecovision, when so many versions already exist? Are they made just to see if they're possible (often on "lesser" systems)? Are non-collectors interested, or does it seem they're aimed at collectors who strive for every game in a system's library? I want to get an idea of whether people actually like & appreciate the homebrew concept. To me, I just never got it.
