About this Episode

This week on the show, we bite into a subject that has alot of meat on the bones! Just as the Cold War in America was ending, another war in the States was getting ready to heat up! Genesis vs. Super Nintendo!? Sonic vs. Mario!? Gameboy vs. Gamegear?! All of these battles were just extensions of the greater fight between Sega and Nintendo! It broke up friendships! It tore families apart! It...okay, those situations may be a tad dramatic, but the hold both companies had on culture in the 90's was very real! No matter what side you chose, the marketing and games released for each ensured we all were winners in the end!
Long-time friend and supporter Chris Hoehne returns, and is enshrined into the Radkast 5-Timers Club! He also brings the passion and the knowledge of someone who spent their formative years during this iconic era of video gaming! It's the Console Wars, this week on the Radkast!
