   Retro Dodo #106 - ModRetro M64 Hands On, Pokemon Fire Red & Leaf Green Coming To Switch And Super Knob 5000

   Welcome back to another episode of the Retro Dodo Podcast. You’re listening to episode 106, and Seb’s back with Brandon to unpack all of the latest news since our last episode. You’re going to need to sit down for this one, because it’s a biggy!We talk about the M64 and our first look as one of two brands in the world and the first in the UK to get early access to this console. Brandon’s been putting it through its paces, and we give our thoughts on how it will go up against the Analogue 3D. There’s more Pokémon and handheld news than we can shake a stick at, along with the oddly-named Super Pocket Knob 5000 handheld which is turning a few heads for all the wrong reasons. All of this and more to come, from two men of Italian and Sicilian descent who are slowly balding but hanging onto their youth for dear life. Let’s jump into the podcast!
