014 Hayao Miyazaki Presents: Magic Mike and the Enchanted Pole
2020 is turning out to be a year full of surprises and new things, mostly bad unfortunately, but luckily the Reiwa Gaming Podcast is still here. Join us this episode as we talk about some of the games we’ve been playing recently and make some light-hearted predictions for Sony’s big PlayStation 5 reveal event.
It’s also week 3 of our (Game)Shark Tank miniseries. Who could be the next host to pitch his game idea? Will it be Mike? Aaron? A special guest host? Will it be a sequel to Matt’s Fresh Prince of Bel Air RPG? Stick around to find out! Stay safe everyone!

013 Fartnite, Starring Norman Remus
This week‘s games played section starts off innocently enough, but quickly evolves into the “Persona 5 Appreciation Awards” when the hosts can’t stop gushing about it. We also briefly touch on the current state of VR and Nick discusses his recent play though of Pixel Ripped 1995. In the news, we give our take on the Xbox Series X event fiasco and what our interpretation of the phrase “Actual Gameplay” really means.
We also enter the second week of our (Game)Shark Tank mini series that tasks each host to pitch a game idea that they would love to be made. This week Matt is up, and if you‘ve learned anything about Matt so far, you know to never under estimate his ability to surprise you. Will his pitch go off without a hitch? Will he be able to declare “I am Legend!” when it’s done because his pitch was a home run? Will he be a bad boy and pitch another anime dating sim? Strap in, it’s gonna be a wild ride for sure! Thanks for listening! Stay safe everyone!

012 (Game)Shark Tank™
We’re back!!! It’s been a month and we’re sorry for the delay. But we’re here and ready to talk about some stuff, and boy, do we talk in this one. Japan isn't currently on a strict lockdown, but many of us here are trying to stay home as much as possible and its giving us all a bit of cabin fever. This weeks episode is a weird one. Weird and funny. And a little long. The best combo for trying times like these. Especially when your stuck inside. We start out as usual talking about what we’ve been playing since the last episode, mainly Animal Crossing and Final Fantasy VII Remake. Then we talk about the news just a bit. And finally we get to our new host segment, which is a mini series this time called.......(Game)Shark Tank™. Each week in this new mini series, a different host will need to pitch an original game idea that they came up with to the rest of the hosts, field questions about it, and try to secure fake internet funding to produce the game. The first week kicks off with Nick‘s game pitch, and while starting off serious, very rapidly devolves in to chaos. We hope you enjoy the show and as always, thanks for listening! Stay safe everyone! 14:00 Animal Crossing 50:15 Final Fantasy VII Remake 83:21 News 95:00 (Game)Shark Tank Week 1 - Nick Ending Theme: Zelda’s Lullaby - Freestyle, Emunator (OC Remix)
