Welcome to Retro Wars, where each week me and a selection of friends, talk about the video games we used to play back when we were kids.
Daniel Carroll hosts Retro Wars, a leisure show with 198 episodes published.
SMASH BROTHERS!!!! An experiment that should not really have worked but somehow became one of Nintendo's best franchises. Today, we are looking at the birth of the series with the first game on the N64. This week I am jo
Do you like eating members of the workforce? Yes, well Abe's Odyssey is for you. One of the early PlayStation one games I played which scared me for how dark it is. A puzzle game (well I think it is) at heart, help Abe e
One day we knew we had to cover this. Bubsy on the Super Nintendo. I am spoiling this, I hate this game. I really hate this game. My guest Keegs loves his game, may it's childhood, I don't know. One day we will find out
In Pikmin 2, Captain Olimar returns to the planet he was originally stranded on, to collect trinkets for his failing company to sell back at home. I had just played the first game and loved it, but will I love the same j
Fire Emblem: Awakening, my first ever Fire Emblem game. The one that started it all for me. Going back to it again after all these felt so good. This game put the series on the map in the West turning it into the juggern
Do Devil's cry? Well that is the question this week as I play Devil May Cry for the Playstation 2. A new franchise for Capcom which is still doing extremely well today. I am joined this week by Storm Beagle from the Retr
Time to go on a large adventure with a little mouse. Mina the Hollower, the newest game from Yacht Club Games is now out on all platforms. I was very lucky to receive a review copy of the game, and had the chance to sit
I am BATMAN. One of the best lines ever spoken, and today, I play the cape crusaders first appearance on the NES. I had heard this was a difficult game but I decided I wanted to have a challenge. The question is, did I f
Super Mario 64, one of the biggest games of our generation. It brought us kicking and screaming into the 3D with one little plumber. Super Mario 64 has a huge fan base behind it and I hope this episode can do it justice.
It is time for the final fight.....in chibi form. Yes, we are talking Mighty Final Fight for the NES. A game I never knew existed because it came so late in the NES' life. It is a demake if you will of the original final
Won't someone think of the children, well today we did as look at our first look in the Final Fantasy chronicles series with Ring of Fates. You focus on a brother and sister duo as they try to save the world...as always.
Still one of the weirdest names for the video game, it is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III - The Manhattan Project on the NES. I had never played this prior to this podcast and this saddens me because it is a great game.
I don't often cover remakes of a game I have already covered but I will make an exception here for this weeks game is Y`s: The Oath in Felghana which is a remake of Ys III - The wanderers of Ys. This week, I am joined by
Entering the arena this week is Garou - Mark of the Wolves, originally released in the arcades and then getting it's break on the Dreamcast. I really wish I had played this back in the day. This week, I am joined by Ragi
Ristar the Sonic killer, well that was what he was called at the time. Surprisingly this game was only released on the mega drive and game gear with no other sequels. Made by the Sonic Team, this was a very different gam
It is time for more Pokémon. I cannot get enough of this series. This time we are talking about the Pokémon trading card game. I played this to death when I was a kid and now that it is on the NSO, it gave me the perfect
We have reached episode 200!! I cannot believe we have got this far. To celebrate this, we are doing one of, if not, the best game of all time, The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time for the N64. This is long episode...I
It is our first Mickey Mouse game of the show which is a huge surprise and we are playing Land of Illusion on the Master System. What a little Gem this is. This week, I am joined by Dave McG. Will he like it as much as I
Dino Crisis....Resident Evil with Zombies. Let's be honest, it is the easiest way to describe it. I played this as a kid, after my brother was done with it. So I decided to bring my brother, Phil, to talk about our memor
Let's finish off the Donkey Kong Country Trilogy with number 3. Some like it, some don't. But what will I think? Join me as Dixie and Kiddie join forces to save Donkey and Diddy from doom. This week, I am joined by Blain
