Sound-bytes are our shorter episodes about what we’ve been up to recently. We've been following some of the embargo-free information about the Steam Deck hardware with interest...

In this episode we continue our recurring segment where we discuss the most important and interesting games of a particular year. In episode 131 we covered 1988. This episode we take a look at the games of 1989.

Key games we discuss:

Honorable mentions go to Tetris, Strider, Alex Kidd, Mother, Prince of Persia (we've talked a lot about this before), Herzog Zwei, The Wizard.

In Game Club, we pick a game to both play separately that we've never played before, and then come together on the show to discuss our thoughts. Along with those games, we're continuing to work through the entire Metroid series, and this time it's the turn of Metroid Fusion, which we have actually both played before.

Welcome to the first proper episode of 2022! Toni is back with us to discuss games we're looking forward to in 2022. Maybe some of them will actually come out this year, who knows?!
