Podcast: It’s Pronounced Zed
This week an America podcast treads where it never should: into the world of British Microcomputers. Don’t worry, we have two Brits, Jam and Mark from Retro Game Geeks, to assist. We discuss the infamous BBC Micro, ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, and hint at the MSX and Amiga 500 (stay tuned for additional mini-eps on the last two). If you grew up in the US and wonder why Europe makes such a big deal over these microcomputers, this is a must listen.
Podcast: Project Mercury
This week we are talking about the Sega Game Gear (Project Mercury), Sega’s first portable console that took on the Gameboy head on.

We also bring in special guests Jason and Mark (from Retro Game Geeks) to talk about beloved titles from the early 90s.
