Unleash your artistic side while scratching that retro gaming itch, ARGonauts! We welcome game designer and good buddy Danny Silvers to chat about his artsy brick breaker title Mondrian. We also look back on the brick breaker genre with titles such as Breakout, Arkanoid, and more!

Before we aim to bust some blocks, we cover the latest retro gaming related news. We talk about some new mini handhelds coming out based on classic Bandai Namco properties, and also a possible return of the 1080 Snowboarding franchise for Nintendo Switch. We also cover the games we've been playing lately which quickly spirals into a followup to our Mega Man episode.

In this week's Stage of History, we shine the spotlight over some classic brick breaker titles such as the pinball hybrid that is Gee Bee, and the Game Boy launch title Alleyway. Robert then brings up Atari's return to their original idea with Off The Wall. Don't forget to also nab our latest game code giveaways, then join us for another game of Random Select! Who could Robert be this week?
