Episode description

In a special episode Eric, Nicky, and special guest John discuss the past, present, and future of Bubble Bobble. Bubble Bobble is a 1986 platform arcade game developed and published by Taito. It was distributed in the United States by Romstar, and in Europe by Electrocoin. Players control Bub and Bob, two dragons that set out to save their girlfriends from a world known as the Cave of Monsters. In each level, Bub and Bob must defeat each enemy present by trapping them in bubbles and popping, who turn into bonus items when they hit the ground. There are 100 levels total, each becoming progressively more difficult.

About us:

Press Any Button hosts Nicky (a new gamer) and Eric (a lifetime  gamer) are a married couple who both love video games. For every video  game they will discuss its past (history of the game, developers story,  and fun facts), present (game play, game review and strategy), and  future (will there be a sequel?? A movie?)  BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE… Every  game also comes with a challenge presented by the host that chose the  game. If the challenge is not completed then whoever failed has to do a  video game rap! So if you want to learn more about video games, hear  some nerdy video game raps, or just have a good time this is the podcast  for you.

We try to cover all types of video games including:

Retro and New video games - Playstation, Nintendo, Xbox, Sega, and PC games - Any and all genres including RPG, Simulation, Beat em up, platforming,  mystery, first person shooter, sandbox, puzzle, action adventure, etc.
