Famicom Dojo Video Game Podcast

Five console generations ago, Nintendo gathered up its cast of Mario characters (and Mario-adjacent franchises), put them into 2D sprites on kart racers, and propelled them around a track rendered in the Super Nintendo's Mode 7. A phenomenon was born. Sean and Vinnk look back on three decades, and eight installments of the Mario Kart franchise, and wonder if Mario Kart 8 is too popular to ever be supplanted. In Future Retro, Vinnk shares his thoughts on Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and Sean plays a Star War with Knights of the Old Republic on a Limited Run Games kart for Nintendo Switch.
