Hey everyone, here's an episode that prrrrrobably should have run a few months ago! Whoops! Back at BitSummit in May, I got together with Retronauts regular D. Feit (now a contributor to the site!) to talk about the at-the-time-very-recently-announced SNK 40th Anniversary Collection for Switch, given that he's a huuuuge SNK fan. (He even lives in Kansai, where SNK is based! That's fandom.) The conversation here is a little outdated now that I have a review version of the collection and have played all of these (and other) games... but still, it's a look at history. And there'll be a more informed follow-up—I recorded a behind-the-scenes discussion about the making of and philosophy behind this compilation with producer Frank Cifaldi in Portland last month, and that'll run in a few weeks as a Friday bonus episode.
Anyway, the collection is really good and you should give it a look. You can read my not-objective-at-all review on the site.
Episode description: Retronauts contributor and SNK ultra-fan D. Feit joins Jeremy Parish for a casual conversation about the games of SNK 40th Anniversary Collection for Switch—the first in a two-part exploration of this landmark anthology!
