Welcome to a special MightyQBros podcast celebrating the 20th anniversary of 'Rick V. Day'!

On July 18 1997, Eric "MightyQDawg" and his brothers received a very special package in the mail containing a huge lot of SMS games. It was a very exciting day for us, and today, on the 20th anniversary of this momentous event, the MightyQBros get together to reminisce about our days growing up playing video games. Enjoy the podcast!

A live show and a day late, but that won't stop CC Weekly from airing with all your Cartridge Club facts for the week!

Splatoon 2 sells out on Amazon and SNES Classic resellers get slapped on the wrist. We talk our gaming strengths and weaknesses and share some from the community as well.

Level 2 16:35

Discuss story of the game: 16:35

Cecil, a dark knight and airship captain from the Kingdom of Baron, begins to outwardly question his king’s order to slaughter a village full of wizards. He does this after slaughtering a village full of wizards. Baron’s king strips Cecil of his command and sends him out on yet another genocidal quest, which makes Cecil snap. After fighting his way through underground tunnels, zombie mountains, and antlion dens, Cecil renounces the way of dark knightdom and becomes a holy paladin.

Over the course of this journey, Cecil discovers that behind King Baron’s strange behavior is a dude named Golbez, who has a grand plan to collect all the world’s crystals and kill everyone. Golbez makes it really, really personal, so Cecil sets out to defeat him, assembling a lineup of quirky party members along the way. Cecil and his party thwart evil dancing dolls, giant walls, and wolves made of fire. Eventually they even go to the moon, because Final Fantasy has always been insane.
