Patreon.com/RememberTheGame Bradley McCue has been on me to play The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap since the first time he appeared on the show years ago. I kept saying I'd get to it, and truth be told, I was just getting ready to find a way to play it when Nintendo said "Hey everyone, we're adding GBA games to the Switch!", and Minish Cap just happened to be one of the games they launched with. (More proof that I have a weird ability to will things into existence). So I finally tried this cap on, and damned if this isn't a pretty solid little Zelda game. Looks great, awesome items, good story. I have a couple minor gripes (looking at YOU, kinnstones in the clouds), but for the most part, it's a clever little Zelda game. And another example of what a beast the GBA was. Bradley swings by the show this week to FINALLY talk The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. If you've been on the fence about giving it a shot, maybe this episode will be the kick in the bum you've been waiting for. And before we try on caps, I slap together another edition of the 'Remember The Game? Infamous Intro'! This week, we talk about whether or not subscription services are a disservice for younger gamers today. Am I gonna try the PSVR2? And was Mario the right franchise for Nintendo's first (modern) movie? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 GBA heavyweights: Metroid Fusion, Golden Sun and Advance Wars.
