Hey everyone, thanks for putting up with a weeklong delay as I scrambled to review two of the
bigger games of 2012; if other obligations prevent me from putting out the show on time, I'll be sure to let you know via our
Twitter account. Moving on, this new, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles-focused episode wouldn't have happened without the help of Ray Barnholt, whose new issue of
Scroll served as my research material. (Seriously,
go and buy it!) We only covered the games released during the Turtles' first period of relevance (1989-1994), but I think you'll agree that the most memorable pizza-powered games came from this era, and one specific publisher: Konami. Enjoy the episode, and please eat Italian food responsibly.
And if you want to help the show, you can always review us on
the iTunes Music Store; it'll only take a few minutes, and you'll walk away with a handful of precious karma. And make sure you don't miss our livestreams of classic games every Friday at 12:00pm PST on the
Retronauts Lunch Break!
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:
