Amigos Retro Gaming Network - Amigos: Everything Amiga / ARG Presents / Sprite Castle / Pixel Gaiden

DEM BOYS are back!  After THE BRENT called in sick last week, we're fired up for ARG 116!  Please join us for a discussion about classic consoles and their LAST STAND as we look at the last games released!  We spotlight two games this week as they perform their swan song, Tony Hawk 3 on the N64 and Bonk 3 on the TurboGrafx-16!  

It's Episode 117 of ARG Presents, and this time out we're going DOWN UNDER with the Australian flavor of the V-TECH Creatvision, the Dick Smith WIZZARD!  This charming little console only had 18 total game releases, but it's got a ton of style and Dick Smith goodness baked right in.  Join Amigo Aaron and THE BRENT as we tackle two games on the Wizzard, Auto Chase and Locomotive!  

Welcome BACK to 1985...it's the release of the NES, the Nintendo Entertainment System...so whadda you gonna play on that sucker?!  That's the very question we answer this week on ARG 118!  Join THE BRENT and Amigo Aaron as we jaunt back to '85 and ponder those games that came out at the very start of the NES!  Then sit back and enjoy a closeup of two of those launch titles.....

Don't hit that button!  It's NO BUTTON ARCADE GAMES week on ARG Presents, and THE BRENT along with Amigo Aaron are going to work!  Kick back and enjoy our conversation about games with Trackballs and Twin Sticks...but no buttons allowed!  Then we try our hands at two examples, the film based arcade game KRULL , and the classic competitive scene arcade standout, Nibbler!

Welcome to a DOWN AND DIRTY episode of ARG Presents!  This week it's UNDER GROUND Games, and we dig through the dirt to come up with something buried long ago.  Join Amigo Aaron and THE BRENT as we shovel out O'Riley's Mine on the Commodore 64 and Ardy the Aardvark on the Apple 2!

Welcome to another wacky episode of ARG!  This time out, we're back to the UK for a look at the Enterprise 64/128 Computer...the one with the BUILT IN JOYSTICK!  After learning about the Enterprise, we go to WARP SPEED with two game from it's vast library.  PREPARE yourself for a trip into the DEADLY Devil's Lair, and then deal yourself in to Jack's House of Cards!

Much like Cheap Trick and Adam Ant, THE BRENT and Amigo Aaron are BIG in Japan!  Well..not really, but we're big ON Japan, and this week we're excited to present the Fujitsu FM-7 Computer!  Enjoy a look at the Japanese take on Miner 2049, and then experience another rare gem, as we look at Yokai Tantei Chima Chima!

It's MicroProse week here on ARG Presents, and we have two games featured that couldn't be more different!  After we chat about MicroProse and it's incredible back catalog, we cover Floyd Of the Jungle on the Atari 8-bit computers and the Commodore 64, and then we surf the matrix as a VAMPIRE in Bloodnet for the Amiga and DOS machines!

It's CHAT CHOICE week on ARG Presents, and the Chat has chosen the AMSTRAD CPC line of computers for us to play games on!  After a quick recap of Amigathon 2020, we dive HEADFIRST into two vastly different games!  Ponder the  bizarre isometric world of DOPPLEGANGER, the leap HEADLONG into the unapologetically arcade inspired budget game, The Island Of Dr. Destructo!

It's Acorn Electron week!  Join Amigo Aaron and THE BRENT as we take a look at the BBC Micro's little brother, and pick a few acorns from the tree of the Electron ourselves!  Pop open your umbrella for Boffin (or Boffin 2 if you prefer)!  Then prepare yourself for the adventure that lies within the Palace of Magic!
