• Space World 2000
    Sep 25 2025

    25 years ago Nintendo held their annual Space World to announce some games and technology that would forever change the gaming industry. The GameCube and GameBoy Advance were revealed to the public for the first time (with a slightly different GCN controller!). Tech demos were all the rage with a dark, ocarina-like Zelda, 128 Marios on the screen at once, and yes, even Meowth having his own party game. Dave of the Remember 64 podcast joins this unique episode to talk about the conference, the demos, and how this was very much a precursor to the modern-day Nintendo Direct.
