Game collector “The Immortal” John Hancock from MetalJesusRocks joins us to chat about the Sega Saturn, its game library, and YOUR favorite memories!

Saturn fans, unite! “The Immortal” John Hancock graces us with his presence to chat about one of his all-time favorite consoles – the Sega Saturn! We look back on this console as well as its fun lineup of arcade-perfect ports and unique titles. PLUS we read your responses on favorite Saturn games and memories.

In the news, we focus first on the Metroid franchise with the reset button hit on Metroid Prime 4 and rumors on Metroid Prime Trilogy coming to Switch. That’s followed by the reveal of a Genesis controller for Nintendo Switch. We also “pour one out” for the titles lost during the Wii Shop closing at the end of the episode.

The Stage of History kicks off our Sega Saturn love with Panzer Dragoon Saga and Burning Rangers. Robert then goes full anime with Magic Knight Rayearth in Obscura. Be sure to pick up our game code giveaways, then stick around for another tough round of Random Select. Who could Robert be this time?

• Metroid Prime 4 now being developed by Retro Studios
• Rumor: Metroid Prime Trilogy for Switch has “been long done”
• Play Sega games properly with this Genesis controller for Switch
