ARGcast #121: The Best Retro Games on Nintendo Switch

Before that, we jump into the news on the Commodore 64 Mini being a real thing finally. We then get into a pretty deep discussion over the positives and negatives of game ROMs as Nintendo recently went after a couple of hosting sites. Then we close out with official word that Stewart Copeland of The Police will in fact be returning to his gaming claim to fame in Spyro Reignited Trilogy.

The Stage of History welcomes a couple of arcade classics with the “beary” lovable Crystal Castles, and classic city destroyer Rampage. Robert then flies off with the rare arcade release Sky Skipper in Obscura. There’s also game giveaways for Tangledeep and Garage: Bad Trip that you’ll want to get your hands on. No Random Select this week, so we finish off with extra news items on N64 Forsaken making a return, and a Battletoads challenge that had us both impressed!

• Commodore 64 Mini Heading To North America This Fall
