Back in the Day Show: Episode #12

Man, things have been busy! But we finally made it into the studio to bring you a new show. This time, we talk about what’s new in the retro scene, like the upcoming album from Doctor Octoroc, plus the comeback of Nintendo’s Punch-Out and A Boy and His Blob. We round out the news by covering some of the new movies coming out that have origins in the 80s: Terminator: Salvation, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and G. I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. Sorry for the excessive use of colons. Next up, we feed our dark comedy appetites with a helping of Robocop. Violence, drugs, killer robots, and loud zippers–it’s got it all! And finally, we reveal our gluttony for punishment by concluding the show with a discussion of some of the hardest NES games known to man. Be sure to check out part 1 and part 2 of the 10 Stupid-Hard NES Games series. Part 3 is on the way available too. “I’d buy that for a dollar.”
