Sakura Wars fans burntends and Matt B join the podcast to talk Sakura Wars GB! We get into everything about this surprisingly important title. Did you know Sakura Wars GB is the first Sega game on Nintendo hardware? I also do a deep dive into the best place to play retro Game Boy titles: the Analogue Pocket. And join me in the alleys of Shinjuku to check out 8bitcafe, a retro gaming themed bar. It has a Super Famicom Box, what’s not to love?
