Hello all, and sorry for the delay -- but this episode of Retronauts is a good one. Not long ago, 1UP's Jose Otero came to me with the idea of a podcast centered entirely around the
Jet Set Radio games; but since we couldn't devote a podcast to this subject alone, I decided to expand our focus to failed Sega franchises in general. And Scott Sharkey was nice enough to join in the fun as we added
Panzer Dragoon and
Shenmue to the list of abandoned Sega series worth talking about. Enjoy, and see you next week! (Also, don't forget to check out the
Retronauts Lunch Break every weekday!)

John gives us his take on Mario and Luigi, along with a nightmarish void of goombas.
Kevin gets the haircut right, but the last name wrong. And yet I still forgive him.
Andrew knows the quickest way to land on Retronauts is to appeal to my EarthBound-loving heart.
Paul brings us his charming Mario/Mega Man hybrid.As always, If you'd like us to read your letter on the show and/or feature your envelope art on our blog, write to:
