Episode 169 – Double Dragon

Matt and Kris finally meet Bimmy and Jimmy

Show Notes

It’s almost amazing that after all these years, this show has never covered a Double Dragon game. It’s finally time to correct that as Matt and Kris spend some quality time with the short but spectacular soundtrack of the NES version of the original Double Dragon.

Episode 167 – Akumajo Dracula (Sharp X68000)

An underrated Castlevania Classic!

Show Notes

As has become tradition around here at the WaveBack podcast, every October Matt and Kris focus on the music of a different Castlevania game in chronological order. This time they’re cracking their whips at an often overlooked entry in Konami’s classic vampire killing franchise, and one that didn’t find its way to North America until well after its initial release overseas. Watch out for trees being struck by lightning because tonight they listen to the music of Akumajo Dracula for the Sharp X68000.
