We're not just Nintendo fanboys, and this week we delve for the first time into the library of the Sega Genesis for cult hit, General Chaos. Why would someone make a real-time strategy combat game on the Genesis? We aren't sure, but the resulting game was definitely unforgettable.Also discussed this week were Batman: Arkham Knight, random JRPGs that Jeremy P is wasting his time with, and we cover some of the Kickstarter retro projects that have come through that we are excited about seeing or are disappointed in their failures.
