Episode 71: Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures

Press any Button: A Video Game Podcast

Nicky and Eric unpack their emotions and fail at mundane tasks in an episode about Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures. Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures is a 1994 side-scrolling point-and-click adventure game developed and published by Namco. The game was released in 1994 for the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis, but was only released for the Sega Genesis exclusively in the US. The Player doesn't control Pac-man directly but instead must help guide him by using a slingshot to get him through various quests.

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.
