Last week’s episode was torpedoed by audio issues (who knows, maybe they’ll come back in a outtakes episode), so this week returns with half old news and half new news. The Gaming Flashback returns with a vengeance with the classic Popcap game Peggle — which came out while Gaming Podcast debuted!
This week’s new/old news includes:
- Atari’s ‘PC technology-based’ Ataribox will echo NES Classic, crowdfunding campaign coming
- PC release of Classic action-RPG Ys Seven announced
- Possible Xbox One X wireless module passes through FCC
- New trademark sparks rumours of ‘Nintendo 64 Classic’ console release
Also, there’s a Question of the Week — listen in and let us know what you think.
Microsoft’s fast to push out their press release, probably hoping to overshadow any reports Sony may be releasing for sales numbers. At this point, we’ll have to believe their press release as fact until someone proves it otherwise; Microsoft would hate to be caught in a lie. Unfortunately, NPD figures aren’t collected in Europe so we have to wait for all the other metric gathering companies to release final December 2007 figures.
