Warp Zone Podcast: November 1990
We cover the Sears and J.C. Penney Christmas Catalogs and play some 1990 movie trivia. Hopefully you do better than we did! Of course we have a ton of games to cover as we head into the busy holiday shopping season for the NES’s 5th year on the market. Enjoy!
We hope you enjoyed our trip down memory lane. If you’d like to listen to this podcast 1 week early, be sure to visit our Patreon and become a member at the $3 and up tier. It includes a bunch of extra perks, such as LIVE episodes of the Nintendo Times Radio podcast!
