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 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.

The Blue Blur himself has FINALLY made it onto The Retro Blast Podcast and it's long overdue! SEGA found itself in a stranglehold in the early 90s as Nintendo dominated the video game market in the United States... And they were almost out of options. Until a little blue hedgehog with super speed AND a super 90s attitude hit the scene and changed the video game landscape forever. The Gamersician himself is back to join Host Patrick Brickhouse for a nostalgic conversation about what it was like to be a kid in the 90s when Sonic hit the scene, what we love about the game to this day, and OF COURSE, the music—With a very special section in the later half of the episode where we discuss comments from Patrons about their favorite OG Sonic songs and memories!

It's 2002. I'm 17 years old... I just landed a job at FuncoLand at the height of the 6th console gen. In this 'Memories' episode, I'm going to take you with me as I revisit what it was like to be a video game store employee during better days. You'll learn about what working there was like, but also the experiences and memories I carry with me to this day, and even some Patron submitted stories! This is one of the biggest projects I've ever produced, and I hope some of it resonates with your life a little bit too.

SSX Tricky is still just as good today as it was in 2001. It's still one of the best snowboarding games ever, and it's also a reminder of what gaming used to be at its best... And reminded us of when EA was actually kind of... good? RIP EA Sports BIG! Special Guest Host: The Gamersician Follow Retro Blast on Bluesky! Support on Patreon and get involved with the show!
Super Mario World wasn't just the pack-in game for the SNES when it released, it was an important statement from Nintendo that they were ready to take on anything and everything by bringing Mario back for a brand new adventure. Join us as we discuss why it left such a mark on not just video games, but every kid who got the chance to play it.

Jet Set Radio (Jet Grind Radio in the US) was a defining game for the SEGA Dreamcast. It was a game about rollerblaind, graffiti tagging, and jamming out to funky beats!
