Show Notes

What do you get when you take some of the most diverse gameplay mechanics to ever exist in an 8-bit title, sprinkle it with some product merchandising wishful thinking, and turn the difficulty up to 11?  The answer to that question is Battletoads, one of the more famous, and some would say infamous, games ever released for the Nintendo Entertainment System.  Learn how the game was made, discover why it was designed to be so brutally difficult, and listen in as we figure out whether it's still worth your time to take on the game's challenges, even today!
