I really like these “Guest Host” episodes, you guys do a great job with interviewing and at throwing out great ideas for the pitches they have.
I can get behind Zelda 64 being a case of havnig to have been there, given it’s an early 3D adventure game as well as the first foray in 3D for the Zelda series. Most of the transitions from 2D to 3D especially bigger series were at worst pretty shaky, and at best they had a few very annoying quibbles.Gonna have to defend Star Fox 64 though (or Lylatwars as it got rebranded here). Even now it’s one of the best examples of how to bring the shmup genre into the 3D plane (no pun intended (oh god never say that that just highlights the pun (oh god i’m just making it worse (oh god (oh god (oh god)))))).
