About this listen

I’m your host Scuba Steve and thanks for checking out my mediocre podcast!

Every week here we pick a nice ol’ retro video game.

We’re gonna travel back in time, we’ll talk all the movies, shows and toys that surround that game.

Then we’ll get into the game - go over the vitals, box art, characters, levels, music, check out some comments and reviews and a whole bunch of other stuff.

At the end we’ll give this game some awards, slap a ranking on this thing and determine once and for all if that game rules!

Thanks again for listening!

  • The Simpsons: Bart vs. the Space Mutants - That Game Rules! Ep 040
    Mar 3 2026

    Don’t have a cow man, I just can’t help talking about The Simpsons constantly. This episode we take a look at the first home release game: Bart vs. the Space Mutants... and what a game it is. This thing is notoriously tough, hard to control, the sound is repetitive and... I kinda like it. Let’s put on those X-RAY specs and see through the painful playthroughs of our childhood. It’s time to take another trip to Springfield, in whatever mystery state they live in.

    More Simpsons talk in our timewarp back to the 90s. Butterfingers, BK kids meal toys, and even their own music CDs, everybody was doin’ the Bartman back then. We also talk about the old contests of the 90s, M and Ms, Fruity Pebbles (for some reason), and the infamous Simpsons House Contest. D’oh!

    As always, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...

    Let's waste some more time this week on the worst gaming podcast on the internet!

  • Metroid II: Return of Samus - That Game Rules! Ep 039
    Feb 24 2026

    Metroid II: Return of Samus is a sequel that was released exclusively on the Gameboy, 5 years after the original. A direct sequel to Metroid, we see our favorite bad ass bounty hunter Samus Aran getting right back into the alien blasting action. Featuring a mazelike world in the Gameboy’s glorious green color scheme, we blast our way through Metroids, aliens, and our own sanity. Is this game worth a shot today, and how does it hold up in the Metroid series? Let’s talk space balls this week!

    We talk more about the 90s and send some love over to the Gameboy’s accessories. The Gameboy Camera and her partner, the Gameboy Printer, gave us 90’s kids an early look into selfies and Snapchat filters. Plus, more movie talk, tv sitcoms, and the Gameboy games in competition for our attention that year.

    As always, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...

  • Diddy Kong Racing - That Game Rules! Ep 038
    Feb 17 2026

    Racing out from behind Mario Kart 64’s shadow is none other than Diddy Kong Racing, the best kart game on the N64 without Mario in the title. More courses, more vehicles, upgradeable weapons, boss fights, and on and on... So why is this game not talked about? N64 and Rareware gave us some of the best games of our childhood, and then they split up to the heartbreak of us all. So, hop on that hovercraft, let’s take a spin and see where things went wrong and where things went very right, with a breakdown of Diddy Kong Racing!

    Before we get bananas, we have to talk about the 1900s. We sure were excited about space disaster movies in the 90s, and we take a side trip to talk about Space Jam. I have some fun talking about Christmas mornings and trying to pick that perfect game. I also vent about Lego and the lack of creativity when it comes to being a boring adult.

    As always, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...
