Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Metal Gear Solid

Episode 51

Monday, March 11, 2024 • Duration 01:30:44

We're covering two very different, yet very influential, games on this fresh episode of NintenGems! First we tackle Game of the Year 2023 nominee Super Mario Bros. Wonder, and discuss what it takes to keep a 2D platformer fresh in today's gaming landscape. Does Wonder bring enough wonder to keep us playing? Then, after years of nagging from Connor, Braydon finally played Metal Gear Solid, a genre-defining spectacle that we dissect from both a newcomer's and a veteran's perspective. Join us!

Pikmin 4, Final Fantasy IV

Episode 50

Thursday, November 16, 2023 • Duration 01:24:05

We took our sweet time with this episode, but we're back to celebrate the fourth entries into some beloved series! We kick off with Pikmin 4 and the new concepts it introduces after taking several years off from new releases (it may be worthwhile to listen to our previous Pikmin episodes). Braydon is seems pleased with its deliveries, but will it be enough to convince Connor to play it?

Meanwhile, Connor has spent intimate time with Final Fantasy 4, playing as originally intended on his SNES and CRT TV. He has a lot to say about the quality of retro gaming he seems to have been missing out on, and the amazing level of intention put into the game by the developers of the time. Join us FOUR an excellent episode!

Live A Live, Mega Man X

Episode 45

Saturday, October 15, 2022 • Duration 01:34:53

After a summer off, we're back on the Nintengems grind to discuss some hard-hitting games! We kick off with Live A Live, originally a Japanese-exclusive Super Famicom title which recently received an modern remake in HD2D. A 'timeless' piece, we explore the blend of iconic storytelling dynamics and incorporated RPG gameplay elements that elevate Live A Live from so many games in the genre. For this episode's gem we look back on Mega Man X, a generation-defining classic that Connor has a newfound hatred for - does it deserve the years of praise it's received? Listen and find out!
