Retro Blissed Episode 86 - Outlander 23.01.2018

Outlander for the Sega Genesis is sort of a Mad Max game without Mad Max, made by the same people who made Mad Max on the NES. Will it be Bliss approved? Who knows, but you should stick around for the full review, bliss quiz, and other fun. Or don't. No one will ever know, except your own sense of guilt for never finding out if this would be the episode of Retro Blissed that doesn't suck. This cou...

Retro Blissed Episode 85 - Biker Mice From Mars 17.01.2018

Retro Blissed already covered Rock n Roll Racing on the Super Nintendo, but have you checked out the spiritual cousin to that SNES classic? Biker Mice from Mars gets the full review, horrible skit, and slapdash quiz show you expect from every episode of Retro Blissed. And also mutant biker mice. Because, why not?

Retro Blissed Episode 84 - Kirby's Adventure 09.01.2018

Kirby's Adventure for the NES was the first time the pink puffball inhaled his enemies and gained their powers. The guys review this Nintendo classic and find out just how much food they can inhale, which it turns out is an entire Chinese buffet. Seriously though, sorry about the opening skit. It's really, REALLY stupid. So stupid.

Retro Blissed Episode 83 - 2017 Year End Awards 02.01.2018

Retro Blissed sends 2017 off with an awards show, honoring the best (and worst) of 2017. Then they undertake the epic task of ranking the top 10 games ever covered for the podcast. Oh, here's the name drop part of the speech: Sega. Nintendo. Mario. Sonic. Bubsy?

Retro Blissed Episode 82 - Mario Kart 64 20.12.2017

Crikey! It's Christmas time! In this holiday episode, Retro Blissed gives a full review of Mario Kart 64 along with "special" guest Trevor's brother, Derek. What makes this episode special?

Retro Blissed Episode 81 - Die Hard Arcade 12.12.2017

Is Die Hard a Christmas movie? Who knows, but Die Hard Arcade was a 1997 Sega Saturn console exclusive that really packed a punch. And a kick. And some bullets. And maybe a missile or two. Stick around for the full game discussion, review, and bliss quiz. Yippie ki yay, retro game fans!

Retro Blissed Episode 80 - Sub-Terrania 05.12.2017

Sub-Terrania for the Sega Genesis is a space shooter with very "interesting" multi-directional controls. Will this delight or infuriate? Tune in to find out, and stick around for the new Bliss Quiz and find out which Patreon pick is drawn from the hat! Bonus: another idiotic skit to start the show off!

Retro Blissed Episode 79 - Alex Kidd in Miracle World 28.11.2017

Retro Blissed plays and reviews the original Alex Kidd for the Sega Master System. Miracle World may look like a Mario clone on the surface, but is there more under the hood? Will Johnny and Trevor disagree with their final score? Has there been a debate this heated since they tried to decide between pizza buffet or Chinese buffet? Stick around for the Bliss Quiz and find out if this show is a mir...

Retro Blissed Episode 78 - TMNT 3 - The Manhattan Project 21.11.2017

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: The Manhattan Project is a mouth full. It's also a game the guys have reminisced on many times on the show but never reviewed...until now. Does this NES beat 'em up live up to the nostalgia fueled memories, or will dreams be crushed and torn asunder like their belts after an all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet? Listen for the full review, a brand new Bliss Quiz, and retu...

Retro Blissed Episode 77 - Top Gear 14.11.2017

Jeremy Clarkson. BBC. "The Stag." What do all of these things have in common? They are all completely unrelated to Top Gear for the Super Nintendo, of course. Top Gear is a classic 16-bit racer that was "the other choice" for early SNES adopters after Mario Kart. Known for its soundtrack and nearly unprecedented amount of content, how does Top Gear hold up in the Retro Blissed full point inspectio...

Retro Blissed Episode 75 - Castlevania 31.10.2017

Castlevania for the Nintendo Entertainment System was the start of a major franchise that lives on to this day. It's the final episode of "Retro Scare Month," and what better Halloween game than this 8-bit classic? Hear the full review, a brand new bliss quiz, and plenty of badly pronounced words.

Retro Blissed Episode 74 - Monster in My Pocket 24.10.2017

"Retro Scare Month" continues with Monster in My Pocket, a Konami action game based on those little rubber monsters we grew up with.

Retro Blissed Episode 73 - Aaahh!!! Real Monsters 17.10.2017

AAAHH!!! Real Monsters is a Sega Genesis game based on the Nickelodeon cartoon. Is it possible this game based on a kids cartoon is the creepiest game covered yet during Retro Scare Month?

Retro Blissed Episode 72 - Gremlins 2 10.10.2017

Gremlins 2 for the Nintendo Entertainment System sees you playing as Gizmo in a bit of a house of horrors for the poor little guy. Hear the guys' review, bliss quiz, and general shenanigans. Does this licensed NES game surprise with its charm, or does it leave the feeling of eating day old Chinese buffet?

Retro Blissed Episode 71 - Ghosts n' Goblins 04.10.2017

Retro Scare month begins with the frightfully difficult NES classic Ghosts n' Goblins. Will Trevor crack first from the brutal level design or from Johnny's flagrant use of vampire  "impressions"? Only time will tell. Full game review and new bliss quiz!

Retro Blissed Episode 70 - Air Fortress 26.09.2017

HAL laboratories may be best known for the Kirby games or Super Smash Bros series. But Air Fortress for the NES could be the hidden gem you've been looking for. Or, it could be the pollution in your ozone. Tune in to find out! Also, no one dies in the opening skit. Spoilers!

Retro Blissed Episode 69 - NBA 2K 20.09.2017

NBA 2K for the Sega Dreamcast brought a new era of realism in basketball video games. With the recent release of NBA 2K18 promising unprecedented realism, see where it all started...and if it still holds up today. Or just skip this episode, because Johnny was over the top goofy and Trevor couldn't contain him nor speak a sentence without slurring every other word. Professional. Podcasters.

Retro Blissed Episode 67 - River City Ransom 05.09.2017

Retro Blissed Episode 65 - Donkey Kong Country 22.08.2017
