Just a few weeks before Jake left for Japan, we sat down and started brainstorming a silly idea to make a podcast to stay in touch. We had no idea what we were doing or if we’d even stick with it very long, but here we are! After 19 episodes, we’ve been able to hang out each week and talk about these games that we love so much. This has truly been an awesome experience and we thank you so much for joining us each week (if you even read these descriptions)!

This week, we are going to re-examine everything we’ve said so far and create the ultimate shared top ten list of N64 games. Enjoy!

Here we have two very Rare games, 007 Goldeneye and delightful follow up to Banjo Kaooie, Banjo Tooie! Goldeneye was a staple of classic multiplayer fun in the 90’s that just couldn’t be beat, while Banjo Tooie was a massive sequel that both delighted and disappointed. This week, Cameron and Jake are talking about some history and stories about these most excellent games!

We can’t believe that we’re already running out of games and coming to the end of our Nintendo 64 knowledge! We know there is still a lot we never played, but this is the best we can do! Thank you so much for listening each week, we love doing this! This week, Cameron and Jake are talking about Tony Hawk, Conker’s Bad Fur Day, and the Legend of Zelda (who really isn’t in this game): Majora’s Mask!

Holy cow, 15 episodes! To celebrate this incredible achievement, Cameron and Jake are looking even further back to our fuzzy memories of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System! This was originally supposed to be our very first episode, but it was so bad that we had to scrap it! But don’t worry, because today (like many old things) it’s being remastered, remade, and rereleased just for you! Thank you for your continued support!

Here we finally are at Cameron’s number one Nintendo 64 game! Banjo Kazooie had everything you could want in an N64 game: adventure, colorful levels, music, weird moles, googly eyes, rhyming witches, gibberish talk, pooping eggs, and so much more! This week, Cameron and Jake are talking about this game’s weird origins, interesting facts, and a quick breakdown of all of the game’s fantastic levels!

Holy cow, what a time to be alive and a fan of Star Wars in the late 90’s! Even as little kids, we knew that Star Wars was a cultural phenomenon that couldn’t be beat. This week, Cameron and Jake are talking about the N64 classic, Rogue Squadron, as well as the massive hype and excitement that surrounded the release of The Phantom Menace! May the Force be with You!

Just like Super Mario 64 before it, Link’s first roll into the 3D world changed the Zelda franchise forever. “Z-Targeting” is still how many 3D adventure games handle combat today! In this episode, Cameron and Jake dive into the facts and wonder of this beautiful and perfect N64 game.

Holy cow, we’ve made it 10 episodes! We know there aren’t a ton of you listening, but we love it anyway and sincerely appreciate you sticking with us this far!
