Jakejames Lugo of The Koalition joins us to chat on what we think will be on the all but confirmed N64 Classic as well as what we hope to see.

It’s happening, ARGonauts! Nintendo is playing coy, but we are pretty sure the N64 Classic is going to happen soon. The Koalition’s Jakejames Lugo comes back on to discuss what will be on the mini console as well as what SHOULD should be on it.

We kick things off in the news appropriately enough with the latest evidence that the N64 Classic is real. That’s followed by found footage of a scrapped Shenmue remake, Analogue coming out with a modern Sega machine, a new House of the Dead that’s hitting arcades, and Rare coming out with their own merchandise. Stay tuned at the end of the show also for a very in-depth discussion on the Red Dead Redemption 2 team working 100 hour weeks.

The Stage of History gets into some Nintendo 64 goodness in anticipation of the N64 Classic with the tubular Wave Race 64 and underappreciated Doom 64. Robert then gets tactical with Starcraft 64 in Obscura. We also have our game giveaways for Batman: The Telltale Series and The Plague, then we fire up another round of Random Select. Who could Robert be this time?
