Runtime: 62 Minutes
We look back at Earthbound, released in the US for the SNES in June of 1995. We talk at length about how weird this game is, and discuss the reasons why it has gained popularity over the years. Finally, it honor of its failed marketing campaign, we talk briefly about other gaming campaigns that have stuck with us through the years. Join this foul-smelling trip down Memory Card Lane.
