LoR: ToeJam and Earl

It’s the return of the Legend of Retro. The boys are back. LPJ, Hovercraft Joe, and Jody get funky with the most unique game released in the 16 bit era. They’ll dig into the happenstance beginnings, miraculous development, and incredible soundtrack that made this a cult classic masterpiece. Then, Retro Relapse takes us back into the arcade with, perhaps, the largest beat-em-up cabinet of all-time. Finally, a new season means a new music bracket. And this one is out of this world. Game On!

LoR: Contra

This week Craig_WK and theGlitch86 talk about the Glitch’s favorite video game of all time: the original Contra on the NES! As we discuss the game, and learn why it’s his favorite video game, we also get to hear about the record that the Glitch set recently! After that, we get a chance to play Bad News Baseball for Retro Relapse, but is it really bad news that we got to play it? Afterwards, we finish up with the NES Music Brackets which are really starting to heat up!
