Today it's Arnaldo, Kelly, Paul, and special return guest, Stephan Reese of Art Of Nintendo Power (Twitter @ArtofNP) picking up our frying pans and baseball bats while we talk about the Super Nintendo's quirky classic, EarthBound! We start off the show catching up with Stephan and talking about his nonprofit, The Interactive Art Collection before moving on to the video game du jour and its creator, the world's most interesting man, Shigesato Itoi (14:00). EarthBound's Famicom predecessor Mother gets a mention (36:00) before moving on to EarthBound itself and its infamous ad campaign (48:00). Our first experiences with EarthBound are up next, including how we reacted to its underwhelming graphics (54:00) followed by the story and our favourite parts and characters (1:08:30). And we wrap things up talking about the legacy EarthBound left behind (1:51:00)
