What is a podcast? A miserable pile of nostalgia!

Hello, friends, and welcome to another Retronauts Micro episode. Seems like we've had a lot of them, eh? Well, we're trying to get the schedule back on track after the disruption caused by the unexpected passing of Satoru Iwata — as of next week, we'll be back on our usual routine. Sorry for the slightly jumbled order! As something of a Type A personality, I'm pretty sure it bothers me more than it does you.

Anyway, this week concerns another personal favorite and a game I'm looking forward to spending more time with in the near-ish future: Super Castlevania IV. You may recall last season's Castlevania NES trilogy episode, and this is the sequel to that. Like all Micro episodes, it's a brief soliloquy about a classic, featuring lots of great music to help distract you from the droning monotony of my voice. Enjoy...?

Episode Description

Last year we looked at the Castlevania NES trilogy; now we explore its weird but wonderful follow-up, Super Castlevania IV for Super NES.

This week's music come from Super Castlevania IV, because it has one of the greatest game soundtracks ever recorded (programmed?) and you better bet your sweet bippy I wanted to use it in an episode focused entirely on the game itself.
