S1E237 - The SNES Podcast #237 -- Legend of the Mystical Ninja

In this special episode of the SNES Podcast Greg and Joe are again joined by friend of the podcast Sean as we discuss another of his favorite SNES games -- Legend of the Mystical Ninja! Part of the popular Goemon franchise in Japan, this wacky and very Japanese early SNES game from Konami is a beloved but difficult action/adventure game. We discuss the game's history and origins, how it plays, and how it holds up today.

S1E236 - The SNES Podcast #236 -- Jim Power: The Lost Dimension in 3-D

Hello everyone! Joe and Greg are here to bring you a very interesting and yet still popular (as shown by the ports) SNES game -- Jim Power! The only SNES game designed with 3-D glasses, the game uses background parallax scrolling to give you a sense of depth -- but without the glasses it often causes motion sickness in people. We discuss this in depth and more and how the game actually is in this episode.

S1E234 - The SNES Podcast #234 -- Sparkster

In this episode of the SNES Podcast, we look at a very unique game -- Sparkster! This game is the SNES version -- but not a port -- of Konami's famous Rocket Knight Adventures for the Genesis and also not the same game as the sequel on that system (as if the naming scheme wasn't confusing enough.) We discuss this game and how it differs from the Genesis entries, where you can get the game today, and how it holds up.
