Summary
HEY FOLKS, SHY FOX HERE! We are currently hard at work on our next batch of Twin Peaks recaps, a new Lynch's Log, and the next mainline FYHOD. In the meantime, we present to you a special BONUS episode from our alternate-universe archives. In this other universe, I hosted a show called "The Dead Pixels Podcast" with a friend I met in the Sterling/Jonathan "Shattered" community. This show aimed to find the best qualities of bad and underrated games, and find out what made them special even if the end-result was less-than-ideal. In this decade-old episode, we covered one of my favorite overlooked gems: Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon for the Nintendo 64. This bizarre Japanese period piece featured very early Mario/Zelda hybrid gameplay, along with an incredible soundtrack, served alongside a heaping helping of wacky, borderline-surreal humor. It's truly a peculiar feast for particular senses, and I encourage all of you to check it out, or at least load up that soundtrack on YouTube. We'll see you next week for a new "Fish in the Percolator" but in the meantime, as always: FIX YOUR HEART OR DIE! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
