    Jul 3 2025

    For the third and final game in the “launch day trilogy” of the GameCube virtual console, Mike & Neil set their sights once again on Outset island and revisit one of the most iconic games ever for the cube, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. A game that started it’s life as perhaps the most controversial ever for Nintendo and gradually turned into a flagship title, it’s had as strange a journey as Link through the Great Sea. Friend of the show Kira (@toonietwirls) joins the episode to chat about perhaps her favourite game ever and it’s continuing impact on her life and many others. Sit back, relax, and listen to this GameCube-centric episode while we eagerly await for the next batch of games!

  • GameCube Online - Soul Calibur II
    Jun 19 2025

    WELCOME TO THE STAGE OF HISTORY. It’s time to talk about the GameCube virtual console and the three “launch” games so to speak, starting the trilogy with Soul Calibur II, a game Mike & Neil covered over 4 years ago and now get to look at with fresh eyes. Friend of the show Luigi (@luigisappartment) joins the episode to dive into the world of Link, the Soul Edge, and the unique relationship Nintendo and Namco had in the early 2000s that made this nearly unthinkable inclusion happen.
