Arcade Castle

I probably should've posted this earlier but, between moving the site, and working two jobs a majority of this year, I kinda let updating here slide. (I'll blame Van Damme's Cocaine Habit??) But, for those who have be periodically checking up on this website for updates. And for anyone new who stumbles across the old website, I have moved operations, such as they are, over to: WWW.ARCADECASTLE.COM The main impetus for the move is the expiration of the domain name by the previous owner, so I was able to swoop in and take the name over. You wouldn't think that for five years arcadecastle.com was a domain name that already existed...but you would be wrong. It was essentially just a website for flash games that probably sold your information if you used it. Now it is a mediocre website for this podcast! (yay) So, the visuals have gotten an overhaul and I have tried to integrate a lot of things into the website for a more cohesive experience

As the seasons turn and weather phenomenon shake the very foundations of the Arcade Castle, another year passes and Arcade Castle finds itself once again in February, the month of its birth. Per tradition (and the bylaws of the land) Arcade Castle must find a game that is part board game and part video game to play to try and delve into the narrow, yet obfuscated, valley that resides in the twin realms of video game and board game, and glean its secrets. However, no longer can Arcade Castle rely upon the Master Strategy Series from the Odyssey II, as all three games have been played and that odyssey is, alas, at an end. However, they turn their attention to a device that was released two decades after the Master Strategy Series: The Nintendo E-Reader. This device, scanning 'dot-codes' that are printed on trading cards, can turn the analog into digital, the playing card into a video game. But are the two mediums truly integrated? In Episode 18, Arcade Castle played the Ma

In Episode 17 of the Arcade Castle Podcast, Arcade Castle learned to be wary of having guests on the show when their star guest, Kirby, decides that John and Patrick are more suited for consumption than communication and, after surviving the expansive void that is the fluffy interior of Kirby, Arcade Castle finds itself stranded in Dream Land as Kirby collapses from the powers he absorbed from John and Patrick. Stranded in the Whispy Woods, Arcade Castle decides the best way to pass the time while Kirby recovers is to play two Kirby themed card games by playing Kirby No Copitoru! (aka the Kirby Copy Abilities Battle! Card Game) from 2015 and the Kirby Sweets Party Board Game from 2017, both of which were published by Ensky in conjunction with HAL Laboratories and Nintendo. In Kirby No Copitoru! Players start off as a basic Kirby character in this mini-deck building game. As players defeat enemies from the different colored suits (Green, Red, Blue, Yellow) shuffled together into
