BoxTrick: A Retro Gaming Podcast

In Episode 116 of BoxTrick, we head back to the golden age of the Sega Genesis to talk about some of the most memorable—and in some cases underrated—games of the 16-bit era.

We dive into the over-the-top insanity of WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game, the cult-classic comic book action of Comix Zone, the surprisingly unique experience of Michael Jackson’s Moonwalker, the co-op fun of Ghostbusters, and the shape-shifting platforming chaos of Kid Chameleon.

From hidden gems to all-time classics, this episode is a love letter to why the Sega Genesis still holds such a special place in gaming history.

In this episode of the BoxTrick Podcast, we dive into our full review of the Super Mario Galaxy movie and yeah… we absolutely loved it.

While critics on Rotten Tomatoes didn’t seem too impressed, fans have been showing up in a big way… and, we’re siding with the fans on this one. From the visuals to the cameos and overall vibe, this felt like one of the best video game adaptations we’ve seen.

We break down what worked, what stood out, and why this movie hits so well for longtime Nintendo fans.

We also react to the newly released Street Fighter movie trailer… and let’s just say… we’re not feeling nearly as optimistic about that one.

From hype to concern, this episode covers both ends of the video game movie spectrum.

In Episode 113 of BoxTrick, we take a deep dive into one of Nintendo’s most beloved consoles — the Nintendo GameCube. Even years after its release, the GameCube remains packed with unforgettable games and unique experiences that still resonate with players today. In this episode, we revisit some of the standout titles that helped define the system and why they continue to be talked about by retro gaming fans.

We discuss classics like Super Mario Sunshine, the bright and experimental follow-up to Mario 64 that gave players a completely new way to explore the Mushroom Kingdom. We also talk about The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, a game that was initially controversial for its cel-shaded art style but ultimately became one of the most beloved entries in the entire Zelda series.

The conversation also dives into the competitive side of the GameCube era with Mario Kart: Double Dash, a game that introduced the unique two-character kart mechanic and created some of the most chaotic and memorable multiplayer sessions Nintendo fans have ever experienced.

From there, we look at some of the console’s more unexpected hits, including Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, the GameCube remake of the PlayStation classic that brought enhanced visuals and cinematic flair to one of gaming’s most legendary stealth adventures. We also touch on the world of fighting games and hip-hop culture with Def Jam: Fight for New York, a title that blended wrestling mechanics with street fighting in a way that still feels unique even today.

At the beginning of the episode, we also talk about Bungie’s upcoming release Marathon, discussing what the revival of this classic franchise might mean for modern gaming. We share our thoughts on whether Marathon can capture the same kind of magic that Bungie created with Halo and later with Destiny, and what expectations fans should realistically have moving forward.

From GameCube nostalgia to modern gaming discussions, this episode of BoxTrick is all about celebrating the games and moments that stick with us long after we put the controller down.
