Game preservationist RockmanCosmo joins the pod to chat about the Rockman Feature Phone Preservation Project. We chat about the history of Japan’s unique feature phone gaming era, why some games from big franchises like Mega Man can be lost forever, and what people are doing to preserve these titles for future generations. And get ready to dye your hair two colors as I share thoughts on Fire Emblem Engage, plus the news including my visit to indie games event Tokyo Game Dungeon!
