Electronic Eggs Podcast

Chris, Chris and Jake travel back to the dawn of handheld gaming as they look at a brief history of handheld games, from the Microvision, to Game & Watch, Tiger LCDs to NeoGeo Pocket Colour (yes I am spelling it the way it should be). 

We're back after a bit of a break. Chris, Darran and Thomas follow up the Nintendo DS episode with it's contemporary rival, The PlayStation Portable. Darran and Thomas were in the press at the time so give us their perspective from the magazines and we find out that Thomas was responsible for one the best games on PSP. 

Joining Chris are Ashley Day and Chris Schilling to rank the 3D Mario platformers. Each run their list of 8 from least favourite to favourite before aggregating them into a final and official ranking of the best 3D Mario platformers! 
As a bonus you also get a tiny bit of insight into the Wii era from the perspective of both EDGE and gamesTM!

Joining me this time is Darran Jones and Thomas Nickel to talk about Nintendo's third pillar, the Nintendo DS! We talk about the games, the system, the history and even talk about piracy that plagued the system's life.  

This month, Johnny 5 comes alive, Tom Cruise gives the bird, BBC1 serves up some Bread, Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd do some moonlighting, Snipes and Harrelson get on the money train, Gina G gives us Eurovision hope, The X-Men make their last stand and we get a New Super Mario Bros!

Chris, Baz and Paul band together to pull off a chat about the Uncharted series, the games, the movie and the book; before we rank the main games at the end. But we also find out how Paul organises his t-shirts in his new flat! 

Chris, Thomas, Jake and Chris spend nearly two hours trying to find nice things to say about the Mega CD and 32X. They of course manage to at least be polite(ish).

Lenny Henry brings the red nose into fashion, Molly Ringwald is pretty unlucky in love, Samantha Fox becomes a gaming icon, John Travolta gets shorty with Devito and Buzz and Woody show us what our toys really get up to when we're not around in this months Capsule!

Unfortunately the latest episode of the show, Ep26 cuts off at 59 minutes, I have tried to edit the original audio again but this has been corrupted. With regret this episode is now lost despite my best efforts to restore it. We will re-record this episode hopefully in the next two weeks. Again I want to say how sorry I am about this.

Seeing as Capcom are putting out hit after hit at the moment, we decided to chat about our favourite Capcom games, though we only manage to get to the end of the PS1 era before we realised the time. We will do a second part soon. Before the Capcom chat we discuss Pragmata, Monster Hunter Stories 3, Crimson Desert, RE9, South of Midnight, Shining in the Darkness, Under the Island and Chris regrets his Starfield purchase.
