This week was a hot time for Jonah — really hot time as Los Angeles was sweltering and the Arctic was literally on fire. However, that didn’t stop the crew from doing the podcast (albeit a day late), though the news was a bit thin again.

The news items for the week include:

  • The C64 Mini is coming to North America on October 9
  • Datamined logo offers more evidence Taiko Drum Master for Switch is coming West
  • Next Xbox will focus on “XCloud” game streaming
  • GOG: Classic console games “might be possible”

The Question of the Week: “What little known game did you love?”

  1. I saw articles about the C64 Mini a while ago, but hearing you talk about it got me really psyched. I forgot about all those fun games.

Gamers who want the full Arkham experience on their next-gen console may be in luck, as a GameStop employee as revealed that a new compilation game called Batman Arkham HD Collection will be coming to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

The evidence was leaked to Eurogamer, revealing what would be included:

  • Batman: Arkham Asylum (including all DLC)
  • Batman: Arkham City (including all DLC)

Unlike rumors a year ago, Batman: Arkham Origins seemingly won’t be included. Perhaps only the Rocksteady-developed games are being included. The lone Xbox One/PlayStation 4 Arkham game, Arkham Knight, will also apparently not be included.

Stay tuned.
