Why the hate?
This is a fun, in-depth analysis of every game in the SNES catalog. I enjoy listening to their opinions on my old favorites as well as discovering new titles to play based on their reviews. Highly recommended!

Feels Like Friends
Listening to this podcast feels like being in a gaming cave with a small group of retro video game friends. It’s comforting, informative and fun. I started collecting SNES games very recently and I’ve been going back and listening to old episodes to find new games to buy. Thank you!

It’s not good…
It’s just not
From the main hosts lisp to the multiple different hosts…you can tell these guys never played the games back in the day…

One of the weakest SNES podcasts
Not sure if any of the hosts grew up in the Super Nintendo era. A very hard listen

Great Guys, Nostalgic Content

Terrible audio quality
I wanted to like this. Tried listening to the Lufia episode but couldn’t make it past ten minutes before giving up. The audio is atrocious, even with earbuds in at full blast you can barely hear a word they’re saying. Couple that with constant stuttering and filler words (umm…uhhh…) every second and this is a drag to get through.

Best SNES content out there
I’ve been burning through a lot of retro gaming podcasts lately and this one wins out for me. They pick great titles, many of which don’t generally get talked about as much but are right up my alley. And the level of detail they go into for each game is perfect. Other podcasts jump around too much or have too much filler. Yes, the main host has a bit of a stutter but it is usually well managed and doesn’t detract from the great job he does. Don’t listen to the negativity and miss out on this stellar SNES podcast. Also, I went directly to their website for older episodes and am glad I did because there are some great episodes in their archives (Chrono Trigger anyone??).

This is a terrific podcast. Don’t let the needless negativity of mansonX40 shade your opinion. Been listening regularly over a year and a half now! Learned a lot and love it!

If you like struggling to tolerate speech this podcast for you
If your idea of fun is listening to someone struggling to speak, either is being a major stutter or possibly Tourette syndrome then this podcast is for you. I’m not trying to pick on the person. But this is a public form of media and information. If you have a speech problem like stuttering or Tourette’s. You should probably get that in check before producing a podcast. The content is their but the delivery is horrid. It’s a mix between someone with a stutter having a conversation with an over fat man who struggles with the voice of someone with donut chins trying to be informative.

Nostalgia in audio
George and Greg do highly detailed retro reviews which are great for folks missing games from their childhoods, or anyone curious about a (mostly 90’s) game they missed. Their deep dives and candor are much more satisfying than YouTube footage or overly sweetened Nintendo Power reviews.

Unprepared
The amount of times I heard “uh” and “um” drove me away. The broadcasters need to know what they are going to say BEFORE turning on the mic. I tried three different episodes, and they all contained too many crutch words (uh, yeah, etc).
I like the idea (and love the SNES), but it’s unlistenable at its current format.

Couldn’t
Couldn’t take the stutter and unprepared nature of one of the hosts during the Fire Pro episode.

A great deep dive in classic titles
Greg and company put a lot of heart and solid research into these episodes and it shows. I look forward ti each new episode. Keep up the great work fellas.

Snes Podcast
I cannot listen to porky pig talk for over an hour, even if he’s talking about SNES.

A Super Show for a Super System
Greg and George do a great job of covering the SNES library on a game by game basis. Lots of great information. Family friendly and extremely likeable hosts. A great podcast for any fan of the Super Nintendo and a great way to relive your favorite games and discover new games for an old system. Do yourself the favor of subscribing and listening today!

still enjoy it
I love the content, but the host can be a bit hard to follow. He'll talk and stammer real fast, then draw out the final word on the sentance with a long slow drawl. The follows it up with a "and what not".
Constantly.
I love the content and will keep at it, but it gets annoying real fast.

Agree with previous review
The stammering becomes unbearable. Good content, but I can't get past it.

Enjoyable and informative
I like this podcast and I learn a lot from it. Each game has its own story to tell.

It is well done
It's a well put together podcast. Greg and George both play off of each other well and are good hosts. Greg brings a wealth of knowledge in each episode and I can tell that even though it can get light hearted at moments he does take the show seriously and can tell he enjoys doing it. George is sort of the color commentator and brings up good "zingers" in the middle of Greg's facts and analysis. Keep up the good work.

Good show, but...
Really great to have a show that's well-researched and shows a lot of love for the Super Nintendo. However, the host has a terrible stammering problem. I thought this might be a problem with just older episodes, but it never gets better.
In my opinion, he talks way too fast and can't transition easily between words, resulting in stuttering, abrupt pauses, and repeat syllables that make it very difficult to even understand what he's saying.
Slow down and enunciate. Also, listen to your own podcast so that you can hear your own speech pattern and learn what not to do when you have a mic in front of you.
I really would like to hear a Super Nintendo podcast like this. The show itself is good, but this guy needs to learn how to talk.

The best SNES show ever!
Greg and Alessandro do the console and its library a great service with this podcast, and you'd only be doing yourself a disservice to not listen to it!
Go ahead, you won't regret it! :D
