DAC Cast

The Yule Lads convene to bid 2019 adieu and reflect on this year's trends, as well as their individual insights about their own game-related habits. What did they like about 2019? What made them want to hurl? What will the future bring us in 2020? But most importantly, who is Normus Reedus?!

Don't forget to follow Brunch Movies and keep your ears peeled for Chris' appearance on their show this week! https://twitter.com/BrunchMovies

The boys S Rank each other into oblivion, bonding over their shared experiences in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Hubert makes (multiple) appearances. The boys talk about September's Nintendo E3 presentation. Spoilers occur -- but we'll give you fair warning. Stick around after the spoiler timestamp for all the goofs!

In the summer of 2019, four friends set out on an expedition they'd never forget -- a journey of laughter, friendship, love, and growing up. This is the voyage of the Detroit Arcade Club. Their continuing mission: to explore strange arcades, to seek out old games and rekindle old friendships... to boldly crave where no man has craved before.

Join Logan, Greg, and Chris as they venture westward to reunite with both Dodontommy and the elusive Shartbites, becoming a force so powerful that they collectively lay waste to the Galloping Ghost Arcade in Brookfield, Illinois.

Believe it or not, the boys made it back to Michigan after their exciting excursion to the Galloping Ghost Arcade in Brookfield, IL -- just in time to celebrate E3 and get together to talk about it. But where's the Galloping Ghost episode, you ask? It's baking in the oven, you ravenous monster! Until it's ready, please enjoy this E3 2019 amuse-bouche.

Our friend Andy from Brunch Movies visits us from all the way across the globe to talk about difficult games, specifically Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.

Topics of discussion include: Brunch Movies, drive-by-fruitings, trying to buy porn from your friend's mom in high school, ninjas, poor midwestern pronunciations of Japanese words, boss cheese, shmups, boss milk, baby games, that goddamned part in TMNT for NES where you have to disarm bombs underwater, Cup Head, Celeste, and the Wario Waft.

The DAC Cast crew talks about the one and only thing that's been on their minds, in their hearts, and in their Nintendo Switch cartridge slots since the beginning of the year -- Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Delve into their personal histories with the series, their thoughts on this entry, their favorite characters... but most importantly, their wild speculation about upcoming fighters, from the plausible to the laughable. Stick around until the end for a little community bonus challenge as well, if you know what's good for ya! #SakuraiPls

It's a new year! Have you all settled in yet? Good. It's time to reflect on all the good and bad that 2018 brought us -- gaming-wise, of course. Yes, those three nasty boys you love so much got together to continue their year-end (and year-beginning) tradition of discussing the last 12 months of videogaming habits, favorite moments, and resolutions for 2019. Oh, and of course, they crown a deserving champion for the #NoShameNovember hashtag contest.

Content Warning: This one might get dark!

The DAC Podcast Crew may have solved Thanksgiving Dinner amongst their various families, but have they truly purged themselves of the shame that comes from gorging on games? The holiday season is a time of personal self-reflection and healing as we approach the new year, so join Logan, Greg, and Chris as they air out their digital dirty laundry, excavate cybernetic skeletons from their computerized closets, and other poorly-thought-out, embarrassing metaphors. Seriously, though -- when is too much, truly too much? #NoShameNovember - tweet at @detroitarcade with your most egregious videogame crimes in terms of time spent in a single game, and you could be the winner of the DAC Cast Loot Crate. For real -- we'll read your tweets on the next episode and reward the best one with a very excellent package of unwanted, mystery trash!

Thank you to everyone who watched DAC's Extra Life 24 hour marathon this year! We raised $1,165 for the Hurley Children's Hospital in Flint, MI, and we couldn't have done it without your support.

Yes, indeed... The ailing winds of October begin to fade as ash sweeps across the land, yet the DAC Cast remains as a single, smoldering ember in the wake of merciless pestilence. That is to say, on this our Eve of Hallows, three chosen undead shall venture forth beyond their former asylum to face the indifferent world of Dark Souls in jolly cooperation. Who knows what strange travelers... or perhaps invaders... they may meet upon this fool's journey... mmm hm hm, heh heh heh heh, muah ha ha haaaaaa...

This episode is a remaster of one we recorded back in May. Or maybe it's a remake? I don't really understand the difference between the two, honestly. Either way, this one comes in a commemorative steel case with 24-page color art book and a cloth map that you'll look at once, consider framing, and then never move forward with out of laziness or fear of your non-game-playing partner feeling ashamed for you and possibly leaving you forever.
