S2E5 - Episode 29 -- Bomberman Hero (N64)
Manage episode 197631583 series 1435474
It's listener request time! We got an email from a fan named Kyle who really wanted us to check out this game and thought it never really got a fair shake. We live for you, the fans, so we played through (almost) all 72 levels. This is a long episode, but we felt like the game deserves it to really dig into things like "how did a race of bombermen evolve?" "How close did Lucasfilm come to suing Hudson Soft and Konami?" and "Why do the bad guys always laugh in video games?" Thanks again to Kyle for the suggestion!
We could not record from the N64, but here's a playthrough if you want to visualize the game
