Arcade Memories

Video Game Arcades might still exist, but for many gamers, the era of their dominance is a thing of the past. If you ever went to Arcades in the 70s, 80s, 90s, or 00s, you know what it felt like to be a part of that era. When a pocket full of tokens meant you were about to experience the latest and greatest in video games. Join special guest Evan Sabba, the voice of Brad Vickers from Resident Evil 3 and host Patrick Brickhouse as they talk about what all of that felt like and why it's truly something to remember, as it will never be replicated.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is a game series that needs no introduction. It's one of the most popular and successful video game franchises of all-time. But, as is tradition here on The Retro Blast Podcast, we like to go back to where it all started with the game that blindsided gamers everywhere. Join me and my guest co-host, Darren Hupke of 'Pixels and Polygons', and Author of the '32 Bit Library' book series (and more!), as we take you back to 1999 to talk all about why this game meant so much to us. Check out Darren Hupke's amazing gaming books, zines, and more: <a href= "https://pixelsandpolygons.net/">pixelsandpolygons.net</a> <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/retroblastpod.com">Click Here to Follow Retro Blast on Bluesky!</a> Want a shout-out, comments discussed on the show, and influence over which games we feature on future episodes? <a href="https://patreon.com/retroblastpodcast">Become a Retro Blast Patron and get involved with the show!</a>
