| 1/1/26 |  SB Bonus Round 34.5 (Replay): The Best Beat 'Em Up Games | Note - This episode originally aired in November 2024. I've decided to add all Bonus Round episodes to the main feed, sequentially and on a 14-month delay, so that EVERYONE can enjoy these fun, classic gaming banter sessions. Patrons will still get NEW Bonus Round episodes every month. Bonus Round 48.5 just went live a few days ago, so if you'd like to catch up, head over to Patreon and support the show at the Fire Flower level or higher.www.patreon.com/smashingbricks ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Hey Retro Gamers, welcome back to Bonus Round!These monthly podcast episodes are Patreon Exclusives and available at the Fire Flower level of support or higher. Each month, my guest and I will put together some sort of list, ranking, or otherwise fun conversation, usually related to that month's main episode. These will be released on the 28th of each month, and hopefully will be the dessert you've been missing after the main course episode two weeks earlier!Before I begin: yes, I did mess up my numbering AGAIN this month, but it all worked out just fine.Aaaanyway, this month's episode on Knights of the Round got me thinking about the best 2D beat 'em up games (or belt scrollers, as my PAL-Region friend Peter would say) of all time. We definitely figured out the best ONE of all time, but the remaining 20 or so are up for debate.To reiterate, my number 1 pick is in no way up for debate. It is literal, actual fact. Can you guess what game it is before listening?What are YOUR favorite beat 'em up games? Bring your thoughts to Discord and talk about 'em all! There's a dedicated channel for it now! discord.smashingbricks.com | — | ||||||
| 12/25/25 |  Smashing Bricks: 12 Games of Bricks-mas Special Day 12 | Hey Retro Gamers!For the holiday season this year I've decided to casually record a "12 Games of Christmas" series, in which I plan to share 12 video games that are in some way meaningful to me, or that will (hopefully) paint a picture of me as a gamer.I typically do a rapid-fire Q&A session with first-time guests to help you get to know their gaming tastes, but I've never done such a thing about myself for you, so here it is!Today's episode is Day 12! We made it! And for a very special day, I have a very special game. As of December 12th, 2025, if I HAAAAAAD to choose a game as the "Greatest Game of All Time" then it would be this one, a game I love very much and one that has already brought me just shy of 400 hours of festive, joyful playtime since its release, even though I haven't played more than an hour of that in 2025.Music Credits"Song of Storms" used under Creative Commons Attribution license.Provided by GameChopsProduced by Coffee Date Mastered by Dj CutmanComposed by Koji KondoOriginally from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time | — | ||||||
