In this episode, we are covering Mega Man, a shooter-platformer released for the NES in December 1987.
This is actually our first-ever recorded dry-run of the show! We had originally planned to cover Wolfenstein 3D this month, but other obligations got in the way for several of us. Instead of delaying a release even further, we wanted to share this wonderful episode with everyone! At the end of this episode, we declare that we're playing Gunstar Heroes next month. That is another dry-run episode that we will keep locked away for a rainy day.
As for Wolfenstein 3D, we do intend to cover the first 3 episodes, so please look forward to it!

Welcome to Yet Another Retro Podcast (YARP)!
A family-friendly podcast where we cover a retro video game from beginning to end, discussing the plot, items, characters, and much more.
We define a retro video game as one that was made 20+ years ago on any major platform, including PC. It's harrowing to think that we're not talking about NES, Game Boy, SNES.... but Playstation 2 and XBox have already met retro status! We plan to cover a wide range of platforms and genres, so we have a LOT that we can talk about!
