After 75 episodes and eight great years, it’s “Game Over” for the Gameroom Junkies Podcast.

In this final episode of the podcast, Preston and Patrick catch everyone up with what’s been going on in their personal gamerooms in the intervening months since the last episode.

Afterward, they take some time to share highlights from this past summer’s Southern-Fried Gaming Expo before sharing a few “under the radar” games that should be on everyone’s lists. Finally, the hosts reminisce about favorite memories over the course of the podcast.

Thank you to everyone for listening to the show. We hope you’ve had as much fun listening to our ramblings as we did hosting the podcast. Your support and friendship over the years has been incredibly meaningful, and you’ve added to memories that we will never forget. – Preston Burt and Patrick Wall, hosts of the Gameroom Junkies Podcast

We had a blast at Dragon Con in Atlanta, GA over Labor Day weekend. Not only did we get to have a ton of fun at this gigantic sci-fi/pop culture extravaganza, we had the opportunity to interview some gaming luminaries during our stay.

In this episode of the podcast, we interview the creator of the classic game Leisure Suit Larry, Al Lowe along with the former president of Epic Games (makers of hit video games like Gears of War), Mr. Mike Capps. Learn about their experiences in the video game industry and what it’s like to be in charge of hit games. In addition to all that, we give you a full gameroom lineup update and talk about gearing up for Halloween gaming fun.

It’s an exciting time in gaming! The Nintendo Switch has arrived to much acclaim, new arcades are popping up all over the place, and there’s been outrage over the end of the NES Classic.

We dive into all of that and more in Episode 70 of the Gameroom Junkies podcast. In this one, Preston talks about his recent travels to arcades in Denver, CO and attending the Midwest Gaming Classic outside of Milwaukee, WI. Good news, the arcade scene is thriving! Bryan joins us again for another exciting “console corner” segment, and we give listeners some updates on the Southern-Fried Gameroom Expo.

It’s back to basics here at the Gameroom Junkies Podcast. Hoarders rejoice! In this episode we’re talking collecting. After some regular updates, we get to the heart of the matter and discuss ten tips to get your collection under control. Preston talks about taking the plunge on his new Ghostbusters pinball machine and Patrick finally conquers Asteroids Deluxe. For a little fun, we play a little game of Codenames, but not the hit tabletop game, this one tests Patrick’s knowledge of project codenames for Stern pinball machines. Cinnabon, anyone?

The year is winding down, so it’s time for us to take a look back at some of the best video games of 2016. Bryan joins us for another console corner segment to prove why there’s a reason the Wii U will end production since no Nintendo games made his list this year. To start the show, Patrick fills listeners in on his recent trip to the Grand Ole Gameroom Expo in Nashville, TN, and talks about some strange things going on with one of his games for a movie production here in Atlanta. In addition to regular gameroom updates, Preston tells about an incredible comic book find that was in storage for 50 years, and we look forward to 2017. Sit down and enjoy. Thanks for listening this year!

Back in October I had the opportunity to attend SIEGE 2016 in Atlanta, GA. This year was the 10th year of the annual Southern Interactive Entertainment and Games Expo, an industry event for game developers bringing together professionals, academics, executives, government officials and more from across the region to celebrate the world of gaming. In this special episode of Gameroom Junkies, we bring you two interviews from SIEGE. The first interview is with Steven Singler of SIEGE who talks about the event’s evolution as a destination for game developers looking to break into a competitive industry, and the second is with the keynote speaker Rand Miller.

Even if you’re not familiar with his name, you’re probably no doubt familiar with the game Rand Miller designed and directed with his brother Robyn. Myst was a revolutionary game of discovery and one of the best-selling games of all time. In this episode of the podcast you’ll hear the interview with Rand Miller recorded at SIEGE where he talks about his early days designing games and founding Cyan, hitting it big with Myst, and about his newest creation, Obduction.

In episode 66 of the Gameroom Junkies podcast, Patrick continues our coverage of Dragon Con 2016 as he sits down with filmmaker and game developer Joe Granato. Joe talks about the origins of his film The New 8-Bit Heroes, which chronicles his project to develop a brand-new adventure game for the original Nintendo Entertainment System. As a bonus, Patrick also gets a chance to try his hand at the drag and drop development environment created by Joe’s team in support of the project. Additionally, in this episode we discuss the recently confirmed Batman ’66 pinball machine from Stern Pinball and our thoughts about the “privilege” of owning the Super LE version of the game.

In this special episode, the Gameroom Junkies head to Dragon Con in Atlanta, Georgia to cover the gaming scene of this internationally known pop culture convention featuring over 3,500 hours of comics, film, television, costuming, art, music, and gaming over four days.  While attending the convention, Patrick sat down for a quick interview with Richard “Lord British” Garriott.  A titan in the video gaming industry (as well as a private astronaut!), Mr. Garriott is best known as the creator of the classic adventure gaming series, Ultima.  In this this interview recorded over Labor Day weekend, he describes how he became interested in gaming, his favorite classic games, the origins of Ultima, and his latest adventure game creation- Shroud of the Avatar.  Enjoy and look for more Dragon Con coverage in a future episode!

It’s been a busy month, but we’re back and ready to tell you all about some geeky adventures. Preston attended his first-ever Gen Con and gives his take on “The Best Four Days in Gaming” which included some serious time playing Killer Queen. Next, Patrick dives deep into a retro video game magazine to share opinions of what some of the best designers in the biz consider to be the top Atari games. Then Preston shares about his time on the West Coast playing pinball with the San Francisco Pinball League at Free Gold Watch and later at the Pacific Pinball Museum. As if all that excitement wasn’t enough, Preston also landed a score off of Craigslist that is a VHS collector’s dream come true. Repair updates and listener questions fill out this episode of the Gameroom Junkies Podcast. Thanks for listening!

Veteran stage and screen actor Lance Guest sat down at the recent Southern-Fried Gameroom Expo in Atlanta for a conversation with Gameroom Junkies’ Patrick Wall. While he touches on his illustrious career, which includes such ’80s films as Jaws: The Revenge, Halloween II, and more, Mr. Guest graciously answered all of our questions related to his most well-known role: as Alex Rogan in the sci-fi classic The Last Starfighter. After a short podcast introduction, stay tuned to hear Lance Guest talk about co-star Catherine Mary Stewart, cutting-edge computer graphics, what it’s like to be part of a cult classic, and the possibility of a Starfighter reboot.

We’ve had a busy couple of months, but we were able to gather some great gaming content during our time away. In addition to our regular gameroom talk, in episode 62 of the Gameroom Junkies Podcast, we take you along with us as we visit Momocon, a large anime and gaming convention in Atlanta which takes place over the course of Memorial Day weekend. While we were there, we had a chance to talk to several of the independent game developers who were in attendance to show off some of their amazing new games.

Be sure to listen to our interviews with some of the designers, but here are just a few of the highlights we saw and played at the convention:

Planet Diver

“Planet Diver is about an adventurous daredevil tackling her newest obsession: Interstellar wing suit diving. With her close robotic companion Buddy she’ll travel across space to seek out the most dangerous planets and their respective chasms to dive in. You’ll dive through a variety of deadly and exotic planets, fighting off the flora and fauna of each locale, while collecting valuable star stuff to further fund your adventures. Use your hard earned rewards to fly to more distant planets, as well as to acquire new outfits and special ability modifiers! Along the way you can compete online for the best dive or try to unlock rewards by completing tough challenges. Careful how deep you dive though… Who knows what slumbers within the planet’s core?”

Blade Ballet

“After the crumbling of civilization and the extinction of the human race, mysterious automatons are all that remain to carry on our legacy. These adorable yet deadly robotic creatures survive the test of time millions of years into the future. The factories that created them continue their manufacturing cycles for all eternity, creating thousands of new robots daily that flood the streets of bot cities and consume precious resources. In order to perpetuate robot society, the bots submit to deathsport after their life cycle is complete. It’s a form of both recycling and natural selection. This display of mechanical prowess is brought to you LIVE for your enjoyment, in a deadly game of Blade Ballet.”

A Quiver of Crows

A twin-stick shmup set in a grim world cursed by demons and ghouls. A Quiver of Crows is a beautiful game filled with dive-bombing crows, upgradable weapons, bombs, and shields. Unique environments and physics not common in shmups make this an artful and surprisingly fun game. The game is designed by Sheado.net and is currently in development for PC, Mac, & Linux.

Fossil Echo

“Fossil Echo is a short and challenging, story driven platformer with hand-drawn 2D graphics. Set in a fantastical world, it tells a wordless tale of adventure and mystery. Influenced by the Oddworld series, Ico & Shadow of the Colossus, as well as Studio Ghibli films, Fossil Echo tells the story of a young boy and his journey to climb a giant tower in the middle of the sea, how he got there, and, more importantly, why?”

In addition to our trip to Momocon, we also talk about our experiences organizing and running what has been described as the best gaming convention in Atlanta, the Southern-Fried Gameroom Expo. In the podcast we describe some of our personal highlights of the show including The Last Starfighter‘s Lance Guest playing an actual Starfighter arcade game, and the fun times had by all at the GeekDad Tabletop Experience. There’s more to come, but on this episode, we share our interview with Spooky Pinball game designer, owner, and friend of the show, Charlie Emery as he talks about his new Rob Zombie: Spookshow International and all things pinball. If all that wasn’t enough, this 2-hour episode highlights two of Preston’s new obsessions: the Journey arcade game and an old kids game show from the ’90s called Video Power. All-in-all, we’re back and ready to game.

Your 10th-favorite podcast about arcade, pinball, and console collecting is back, and we’re all over the board on this one! Before we go off the deep end about whatever pops into our heads, we give a pretty detailed rundown of the upcoming (GeekDad-sponsored) Southern-Fried Gameroom Expo in Atlanta June 10-12, 2016! We talk upcoming guests, sponsors, logistics hurdles, and the small details it takes to run a large convention.

For our only “real” segment, Patrick gives a rundown of what happened in arcade history during April. Additionally in this episode, we go down a Vectrex rabbit hole, lament a broken water heater and flooded basement full of games, and go over our current obsessions. Before we leave, however, we wax poetic about a Polygon article about what it takes to run a location-based arcade in today’s economic market.

What’s old is new again, and so it is with SKYCURSER, a newly-developed side-scrolling shoot-em-up arcade game created for the classic JAMMA arcade environment. In SKYCURSER, a lone pilot in a remarkably well-armed airplane battles humans, animals, and machines infected by a plague-like disease emitted from a star. In episode sixty of the Gameroom Junkies Podcast, we sit down and interview part of the development team responsible for bringing the new retro-style arcade game to the modern arcade marketplace.

Speaking of curses, how about one that’s a blessing as well? In this episode, we talk about our recent experience of an arcade operator “warehouse raid.” We’ve been on several in our years of collecting, but each raid is exciting until you ask yourself, “Where am I gonna put all this stuff?” Oh well… it’s a good problem to have. We go into detail about our adventure, but if you want even more detail, check out our video of the operator’s stash below! (Hey, speaking of, have you subscribed to our YouTube channel yet?)

Don’t worry, we’re not all arcade-related this episode. In honor of the upcoming Ghostbusters pinball machine from Stern (which is the worst-kept secret in pinball), we give our official “Top 5” list of “ghostly” pinball machines. If all that wasn’t exciting enough, we also indulge our friend Bryan for another round of “Console Corner” for his thoughts on the new Legend of Zelda game, The Division, Undertale, and more. If you’re a gamer, there’s something for everybody in this episode of Gameroom Junkies!

We’re releasing our second show inside the same month… it’s a Christmas miracle! In this episode of the podcast, Preston and Patrick debrief and talk all about their time in Orlando at Free Play Florida! Between the games, the people, and the guests, it was so much fun! Our interviews this month include two fantastic filmmakers. Patrick took some time out of his busy weekend at Free Play Florida to interview the director of the low budget ’80s classic Joysticks, Greydon Clark. Also in this episode, Preston calls up Rob McCallum, the director of the recently released Nintendo Quest documentary. Gameroom updates and an announcement about a new guest for SFGE 2016 round out our holiday episode. Hope you enjoy!

Everybody who is anybody in the amusement industry makes a point to attend the annual International Association of Amusement Parks & Attractions (IAAPA 2015) Expo each year, which is why your favorite podcast hosts made a trip down to Orlando, Florida for this year’s event! As far as coin-op gaming goes, exhibitors included Raw Thrills, SEGA, Jersey Jack Pinball, Bandai Namco, ICE, and more. Come along with us as we recount our time spent playing the all the newest arcade and pinball machines the industry has to offer.

On the IAAPA 2015 show floor, the executive vice president of Bandai Namco amusements steps up to the mic to tell us about the new Galaga Assault redemtion game, the world’s largest Pac-Man machine, and how the Star Wars: Battle Pod is continuing to gain popularity. After that we speak to a representative for Adrenaline Amusements about how your favorite mobile games equal big fun in an arcade environment. Lastly, before we traveled to Orlando, we had the opportunity to interview CEO and founder of Stern Pinball, Gary Stern, about what the world’s largest pinball manufacturer is up to and to learn more about their newest title, Game of Thrones.

Our Halloween show isn’t very spooky, but in this episode of the podcast we do share some Halloween stories and plenty of gameroom updates to get you in the spirit. If spooks and specters aren’t your cup of tea, then you’ll enjoy hearing about some of the cool new things we found on the interwebs. We cover everything from a cool Pong watch instructable to Vec9, a homebrew Soviet-era vector arcade game.

Later in the show we share our own “arcade confessions” in solidarity with other arcade enthusiasts on KLOV.com, plus Preston talks about his experience trying out the newly-released Just Dance 2016! Speaking of reviews, Preston goes on to share his thoughts about the new video game documentary Nintendo Quest, which prompts a discussion about several other video game-focused documentaries which neither of us have ever heard about. This is a shorter episode (if you can call an hour “short”), but filled with fun chatter about the things we love. Hope you enjoy!
