Following Nathan Drake’s crass corporate sponsorship, this week the Tech-Gaming crew forgoes their usual inhibitions to become product prostitutes. Beyond the shilling, DesertEagle, SeanNOLA and Samurage, offer impressions of TNT Racers, Venetica, NFL Blitz, and Golden Sun: Dark Dawn. Stay tuned for our interview with Jason Koohi of Zanrai Interactive, whose on hand to talk about the development of Heaven Variant, a promising 3D horizontal shmup with an amazing soundtrack that recalls the chiptune swells of the golden era of gaming as well as our usual dose of gaming trivia and reader mail responses.
Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "The franchise celebrated its 20th anniversary yesterday without a peep from Nintendo and that’s a real shame because despite only being three games deep, this is one of the best-received RPG series out there. In short, it’s time for a new Golden Sun."
Yea good luck. Put this in the pile with f-zero, kid Icarus, wario land, etc. and label it the "wt are you waiting for" pile
The Punished Backlog's David Silbert writes:
"Nintendo is widely known for its deep, eclectic well of beloved franchises. From The Legend of Zelda to Wrecking Crew, there’s no library in gaming as rich in history or as popular among fans.
2019 is shaping up to be a banner year for Nintendo, with representatives from Mario, Fire Emblem, Zelda, and Pokémon all gracing the Switch platform before the year’s end. At the same time, there are still plenty of Nintendo franchises that lie dormant this generation, in desperate need of the “Switch treatment.”
While there are plenty of legendary series worthy of a revival, here are six in particular I would absolutely kill to see on Switch in the near future."
A new Golden Sun and Mother would be great, but I wish I wasn't the only one that wants a new StarTropics.
It seems now is the time to capitalise on a renewed acceptance of, dare we say it, the video game side of sports video games, and here are five classic arcade titles that really need to come back.
"product prostitutes"? Whoa?
Can't wait to listen.
But Drake doesn't have a free hand for any chips.
BTW- I always go for the cookie.
