Famicom Dojo Video Game Podcast

Did the Cold War make early video games unintentionally bleak? Or was the "kobiyashi maru" style of gaming in the 1970s and '80s more a function of limited memory space and the need for arcade machines to get kids to keep pumping in the quarters? Vinnk and SeanOrange chew over these questions, and how the era of home consoles allowed an escape from this repetitive experience, allowing games to finally, sometimes mercifully, end. Also in this episode: Rebel in Japan "Poop is Funny", and the premiere of the first audio version of Famicom Denshimail!
