Autofire Power Hour

In this very special edition of Autofire Power Hour (+48 Hours) we tackle the entire history of Nintendo's Highs & Lows.

Journey with AFPH into the world of Taito's Darius where we battle the onslaught of space fish in one of the best horizontal shooter series of all time.

Autofire Power Hour is taking it to the X-Treme!!!

On this extra special bonus edition of the AFPH, we lightly dabble in self-induced public shaming in an attempt to pull back the curtain a bit. Special appearance enthusiast Thor Becker joins once again as we discuss how we spent our Friday nights in high school establishing the "Sega-Nights" (not to be confused with Sega's Nights).

FINALLY! It's long overdue for AFPH to speak the virtues of a forgotten but excellent fighting game that stayed in the 16 Bit era: Namco's Weaponlord. This super hardcore and mechanically advanced fighting game would (maybe? possibly?) influence Soul Calibur. Have a listen and then play this awesome game, or the Demonlord will be super pissed.

On this edition of AFPH, we scratch the surface of one of the most prolific 'single-and-double-A' developers and publishers in Data East. For an added bonus, we were joined midway through recording by returning guest, surprise appearance maker, and all around Bad Dude, Thor Becker. We go on and off the rails. It's a fun one!

Today on AFPH; Predatory cats, so many buttons, and some number fudging that gets us to 64-bits. The Atari Jaguar was the last home console made by the former video game juggernaut and against all convention, it still has a loyal fanbase. And Ray gets to (justifiably) mock Brian for being among that fanbase!

Today on AFPH, we have a spirited chat about the Mortal Kombat arcade games. Then for a very special treat, we are joined by Daniel Pesina. Mr. Pesina was the martial arts actor who played Johnny Cage, Sub-Zero, Scorpion, and more in the games and has a lot to say about the making of and lasting impact of MOOOOORTAL KOOOOOMBAT!!!!

On this installment of AFPH, we discuss video game themed TV shows. Then for the back half of the show we have a sit down with Nick Arcade's Phil Moore on what its like to have helped raise an entire generation of grown man babies now with babies of there own.

Love him or hate him, he is Billy Mitchell and it is 99.99% guaranteed he is better at Pacman than you. AFPH had the privilege of having a one one one interview with one of the most famous, or infamous video game players of all time.
