The history of a lot of food brands in general is pretty interesting to me.

As much as I like video game music, I haven't felt the need to download the Nintendo Music app.

I remember The Adventures of Willy Beamish. I always thought it would've made a better cartoon than a game, though.  They did get some animation talent from people who worked on things like The Simpsons and The Little Mermaid.  The Willy Beamish game had some slight adult humor in it, too, if I remember correctly.

Farm Together 2?  Yeah you'll be playing that for a while.  You'd be in trouble if they ever made a Minecraft 2!

Oh, and since you said you liked the GBA Shantae game, I recommend you check out Pipistrello and the Cursed Yo-Yo.  I'm working on reviewing it right now, and it feels like a GBA game, too.

The gummies are OK.  I've had better, but I've also had worse.

Yeah, Starlight Legacy isn't bad, but if you want to play a modern RPG with classic sensabilities, you're better off with something like Sea of Stars.

Oh, and since you said you liked the GBA Shantae game, I recommend you check out Pipistrello and the Cursed Yo-Yo.  I'm working on reviewing it right now, and it feels like a GBA game, too.

Thanks!  I'd like to do more podcasts, but it's so hard to get together with people nowadays.  I do have an idea for my next podcast, so hopefully I'll be able to do it around my birthday.

I thought you could change the music in the Namco Picross game in the options screen.  I seem to remember doing that anyway.  The problem with the music is they use the Famicom versions of the games' music, not the arcade.  

I reviewed that Pocky and Rocky game.

I read that candy bars were really popular in the 20s and 30s.

And thank YOU for listening to our podcast!

I didn't review Pilotwings Resort, but I did get it.  They took the flying around Wuhu Island parts from Wii Sports Resort and made a whole game out of it.  It's good, but for some reason I didn't get into it as much as the SNES game.

Here's an interesting fact about Pilotwings 64.  One of the characters you can pick is named Lark, but he's actually Nester from the Howard and Nester Nintendo Power comics.  He also got his own game on the Virtual Boy: Nester's Funky Bowling.

I lived in Austin when I was in college but that was many, many years ago.  One of my best friends got a job in Austin after working abroad for many years, so I just might have to go visit there again.
