Podcast: Retro Turkey Day
This week GH101 is celebrating Thanksgiving with guest Klaitu and a discussion on retro gaming today. They discuss the different options from actual hardware to both software and hardware emulation. It also delves into the cost involved in each option.
Opening Song: Forest Interlude – Donkey Kong Country 2 (SNES)
Transition Song: Witchwood – Fable (Xbox)
Closing Song: The Four Orbs – Klonoa: Door to Phantomile (PS1)
Podcast: The History of Pokemon (Plus Sword and Shield)
This week Fred was out of commission but the community (and a new podcast) teamed up to make some great content. It starts off with the History of Pokemon as told by Chase from the Learned from Gaming podcast and it then flows to a much larger discussion on the legacy of Pokemon as it relates to the just releasing Pokemon Sword and Shield. This discussion includes Chase as well but also involves community members Vos and Los. In fact, this episode is a crossover with Los’ recently released The Talking Place podcast.
And Now It’s Time For Some News
This week is one of transition, but that doesn’t stop new content. At the start are several announcements to the future of the show followed by a cut news segment recorded by Fred and Austin for the Halloween Special. If you haven’t been keeping up with retro news, there’s a lot of good stuff here.
Opening Song: Main Menu Theme – Medievil (PS1)
Transition Song: City in the Storm – Panzer Dragoon Orta (Xbox)
Ending Song: End Theme – Cosmic Fantasy 2 (Turbografx CD)

The Minish Cap Game Club
Fred and Jam close out the ongoing series GH101 (but leave room for one-offs) with a requested favorite from some of our listeners: The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. Released on Gameboy Advance in the mid 2000s, it’s an interesting blend of mechanics from both the Zelda series and a sprinkle of Mario as well. It was also developed by Flagship and Capcom in conjunction with Nintendo.
