  • Byte Size Podcast 3 – Dead Cells
    Welcome everyone to Byte Size Podcast 3! On this episode, I got my good friend Mario on the phone and we discuss the video game Dead Cells, developed by Motion Twin. He’s currently playing it on the PlayStation 4, while I’m playing it on the Nintendo Switch. We discuss our opinions on the game and so much more. This is a great podcast episode for those that haven’t played the game yet and those that are used to getting destroyed by this very game. The Byte Size Podcast episodes are shorter than full-size episodes, so sit back, relax and let’s get started!

  • Episode 11 – Mega Man X OST


    Episode 11 of the Grown-Up Pixels Podcast is 100% inspired by the recent Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 and 2. As of lately I have been seeing Mega Man X everywhere. Most of my gamer friends are currently playing through the legacy collections and its been fun to see everyone talking about it and sharing their thoughts about what’s good and bad about the different games.





    By far Mega Man X is my favorite game in the entire series. With all the hype going around I felt what better way to celebrate the series than by sharing the soundtrack of my favorite game. I hope you really enjoy this episode because I really enjoyed making it.

  • Possible July 2018 Pickups
    Possible July 2018 Pickups
    The month of July 2018 has a couple of different titles that I’m interested in picking up. All of the games are on either the Nintendo Switch or the Sony PlayStation 4. Here is the small list of possibly July 2018 pickups that I might be picking up this month, in order of release date.
    1. Toads Treasure Tracker for the Nintendo Switch
    I recently played the demo of Toads Treasure Tracker with my 2-year-old daughter. I thought it would be simple enough for her to positively contribute to playing the game but she isn’t fully there yet. She did really like the simplicity of the game and the fact that she is able to shoot tomatoes as a second player got her really into the game. As a result of her excitement, I do plan on picking this game up for the Nintendo Switch.
    I have already played and beaten this game on the Nintendo Wii U. I already know what to expect and the amount of engagement that it will bring. I have seen a couple of Mario Odyssey stages that would be new to this particular version, but ultimately as I mentioned earlier, I want this game to further bond with my daughter. I’ll let you all know how it goes.
    2. Octopath Traveler for the Nintendo Switch
    I’m looking forward to this game. I thought it had an interesting look to it when I played the demo. Everyone I hear talking about this game absolutely loved the demo. I gotta be honest here, I lost interest in the demo really quickly. There was a lot of talking and I just couldn’t get too into the dialogue. I ended up skipping much of the dialogue and eventually just lost interest. I played the demo so long ago that I really don’t have a good perception of it anymore as it comes close to being released.
    So while the demo didn’t keep me engaged, why am I still entertaining the idea of still picking this game up? Honestly, I think its a combination of it being a SquareEnix game and just my memories of playing RPGs when I was a kid. I used to love going through a game and seeing the story unfold, my characters developing throughout. Leveling up and making my characters strong enough to destroy the next boss. Lastly, I enjoyed seeing the cool magic or fighting effects that would happen during the fights themselves. I think for all these reasons I still wanna check out Octopath Traveler. I’ll most likely be attempting the demo again before actually getting the game.
    3. Sonic Mania Plus for the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch
    Sonic Mania Plus is a tricky game for me. If you have followed any of my content prior to this blog post you’ll know that I was super into Sonic Mania when it first came out. I bought it for both the Nintendo Switch and the PlayStation 4. I streamed all of my progress through that game on the PS4 and have yet to finish it again on the Switch. I really enjoyed the game and loved the revival of classic Sonic gameplay.
    Truth be told, the reason why I’m thinking about getting this game again is that I’m just a sucker for sega. I have been a sonic fan since the Genesis days and throughout the years have seen Sega go through tons of ups and even more downs. It’s because of that I tend to support Sega in a lot of the games they release. I want to see succeed. Mania Plus does have a couple of additions that the original game didn’t have. They have two brand new characters that are from the old sonic games and comics. They have a couple of new versions of past stages and possibly a couple of new stages altogether, although that I’m not too sure about. If the game is priced at $40, I might wait a little bit, if it’s priced at $30 than its a for sure pickup.
    4. Mega Man X Collection 1 + 2 for the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch
    MMX Collection is a huge title for me. I have been playing the X series since it first came out on the Super Nintendo and continued to play it on the PlayStation 1 and 2. I even wanna go as far as to say that I enjoy the X se...

  • Grown-Up Pixels Podcast Episode 8 – My Kids Playlist
     
    Grown-Up Pixels Podcast Episode 8 is full of video game music and some music that should be video game music. This is a particularly special episode for me. While working on this episode my baby boy was born. We all spent two weeks in the neonatal intensive care unit, due to him having breathing issues. It was difficult to really work on anything while being in the NICU. I was able to finally finish editing the episode and get it out once he was home safe.

  • Grown-Up Pixels Podcast Episode 7
    Grown-Up Pixels Podcast Episode 7 is full of new information and a brand new segment that I’m testing out for the podcast. We briefly go over the community question from Episode 5 and what I’m currently playing. I introduce the new segment called “What’s New”, which isn’t the official title of the new segment but that’s what I’m calling it right now. I’ll discuss my second child, wanting to play my Nintendo Switch and getting back into the Nintendo 3DS.
    In the news portion of the podcast, I discuss Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze for the Nintendo Switch, the NES Classic being rereleased, and I celebrate 2 major birthdays that recently passed. My pixel memory this episode is focusing on The Simpsons Arcade Game and the little kid.
    Lastly, I ask a new community question for Episode 7, which is asking what platform do you prefer to watch video game streamers on? Do you stream games yourself? What platform are you mostly doing it on?
