This month's 10 20 30 40 brings the launch of the Saturn, and a month of... nothing?

Show Notes

On this week’s podcast, Dan and Kris bring you a very weird 10 20 30 40. There’s a metric ton of mediocrity, the launch of the Sega Saturn, and a month of literally no new video game releases? That can’t be right, can it? Then, in Week Old News, someone made Minecraft in Mario 64, Playtonic gets hit with layoffs, a set of new Ditto plush gets creepy, and more! Finally, in The Checkpoint, Kris enters the breakneck world of garbage disposal replacement, Dan gives us updates on Tiff’s health while extolling the virtues of Blue Prince, Kris makes some truly wretched protein shakes, and spends some quality time not playing Mario Kart Live.

All aboard the SAG Cartoon Express for some Mortal Kombat

Show Notes

On this week’s podcast, Dan and Kris board the Cartoon Express for a very strange episode of Mortal Kombat: Guardian of the Realms. This cartoon was surprisingly watchable in comparison to a handful of other things they’ve watched, but was it good enough to take the top spot for the year? Why the heck is Ron Perlman voicing Stryker? Why the heck is Stryker in this show in the first place? Let’s find out! Then, in Week Old News, Limited Run Games gets itself in a whole heap of trouble. The 3DS leaves the Louvre, GTA VI shifts its date, and more!
Finally, in The Checkpoint (it has a name now!) Dan and Kris once again had busy weeks. Dan is still really enjoying South of Midnight, while dealing with some fresh health issues in his house. (Don't worry, he’s fine). Meanwhile, Kris had an epic battle with UPS, rediscovered his love of Rogue Squadron II, and more!
Enjoy!
