The Retro Breakdown episodes
- Radiant Silvergun (Saturn) and the Rockman Gold Empire
Yes, we will eventually play Mega Man Zero. No, we will probably not play the Rockman-themed, Taiwan-exclusive Monopoly-like board game from 1999.

1 hr 2 min - Mega Man 7 (SNES) and the Wi-Fi Eyeball
The series playthrough continues! This week we try to quickly recap all the game shows we missed in weeks past and then talk about memories of Harvest Moon and bad Bond movie plot contrivances.
Also, Mega Man 7 is not one of the bad ones.

1 hr 7 min - Mega Man X2 (SNES) and the Anime Trash Revue
Remember, just because it's trash, doesn't mean it's bad. Except when it's both.

1 hr 15 min - Super Mario Land (Game Boy) and the Manga "Final Arcs"
When a mangaka says their series is entering its "final arc," does that mean it's a few months from over, or like 10 years?

1 hr 8 min - Quest for Camelot (GBC) and the Original Xbox Library
TW's dumb sports game obsession, running down original Xbox games, and one of the worst games we've played in a while.
Apologies for the music at the end, but that's honestly what the experience of playing this game was like.
Why did Nintendo bother re-releasing this, seriously?

1 hr 13 min - Bubble Ghost (Game Boy) and the Defense of Super Earth
After weeks of talking about it, we finally decided to muster up the courage to be free.
Also, here's a thing I didn't realize about this game until I was editing it - apparently Hitoshi Sakamoto did the music for this back in 1990, it was one of his first projects.

1 hr 12 min - Mega Man V (Game Boy) and the Penny's Big Breakaway Bump
We're back from a short break, did we miss much? Oh, basically every gaming company on the planet is trying to Ouroboros themselves out of existence?
Cool. Coolcoolcool. Penny's Big Breakaway was good, and so was MMV, even though it's been a month since we played it.

1 hr 7 min - Mega Man X (SNES) and the Nintendo Legal Backlog
Nintendo sucks, why can't we quit it?
Also, more spam emails, the legal ruling that may spawn more indie games, and just so much love for Mega Man X.

1 hr 30 min - Battletoads in Battlemaniacs (SNES) and the Old Soda Habits
Spiced Coke, Korean soda habits, and horny Rareware throughout this episode!
I'm pretty sure that Battletoads is deeply overrated as a franchise. This is the one I played the most as a kid, way more than the NES one, and I remembered liking some parts of it, but that doesn't mean it's good.

About The Retro Breakdown
From the publisher's feed
Every week, Dean (twitch.tv/timewanderer) and Tom discuss current gaming news, and then check out some old (or sometimes new) piece of gaming history to see how it holds up, and test the strength of…
nostalgia.
