Matt Bok is back yet again (again!) for an extra long, extra special episode. (Check out episode 16 and episode 26 for his previous episodes). Just in time for the holiday season, we discuss the SNES Classic, NES Classic, Nintendo Switch, Atari Box, and other stuff.
Tons of show notes:
- The NES Classic and SNES Classic
- Virtua Racing (used the "SVP" chip)
- Panzer Dragoon
- Super Mario Advance series
- Super Mario Advance = Super Mario Bros. 2
- Super Mario Advance 2 = Super Mario World
- Super Mario Advance 3 = Yoshi's Island (aka Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)
- Super Mario Advance 4 = Super Mario Bros. 3
- SNES had a "mode 7" feature, you can learn about it and F-Zero in this video by Jeremy Parish
- Games that Matt mentioned as notable "omissions" from the SNES classic:
- The SNES Classic has indeed been hacked, and there was a message left by Nintendo
- The Ataribox. As of today, there is a "trailer" and a few photos. That's it.
- Ouya
- The M2 (from Matsushita Group, which is now known as Panasonic)
- Press conference about the M2 at E2 (1995)
- Micro Center is a computer store.
- Blade Runner 2049 trailer (which features the Atari logo)
- Might be a good time to brush up on your Atari history
- RetroN 77, by Hyperkin
- Vectrex
- Check out episode 035 with my brother Nathan to get some idea of why old consoles don't work so well with newer TVs.
- Nintendo Switch
- The "Mario game on the Wii U with the cats" I assume refers to Super Mario 3D World
