This week we’ve got a Jeopardy quiz from hacker alias A_Hind_D, and it nearly killed all of us as we realize not only do we not know very much about the Nintendo 64’s library but maybe we have to re-evaluate whether or not we liked the machine. I mean, yeah the Nintendo software was great but outside that it was pretty dismal, ya know? Thanks for your support and enjoy the show!

649: Turns Out You’ve Got To Build It Yourself Aftershow

Hello patron! This is CJ writing this, but I was not on the show this week or the aftershow so I have no idea what they did. Some kind of review quiz. From… August 2002 EGM? I think? Sounds right. Oh and Greg is our quizmaster this episode, with Phil, Rich Grisham and Benjamin Rivers all playing for cash and prizes. Well, OK, prizes. Wait, no prizes? OK, infamy. Can you beat them? Play along!
