Episode 84 : Battletoads (NES)

Our first episode of 2019 takes us back to the NES to look at a very beloved game, Battletoads, which is known not only for being a game everyone loves, but also one of the hardest games on the NES. Does this still hold up today, and is it as hard as we all remember? Can we even get past those damn speeder bikes? Listen to find out!

We also answer a listener question from "Josh" to discuss some poor 2nd and 3rd choices we made at the store as kids, because going home with any game has to be better than going home with none... right?

Want to skip right to Battletoads? Start at 9:30!
