Episode Notes

Bonus - Live at Tattooed Mom's (2019)

As I mentioned last episode, here's a quick bonus recording!

In the summer of 2019 (remember those days?) I recorded an episode of Power Time in front of a live audience at Tattooed Mom's in Philadelphia. TMom's was one of my favorite drinking establishments in the city back in my younger days. It was a blast to take my love for Nintendo Power to the fine folks that showed up that day.

Before the live recording, I also share a few words about the future of Power Time. Enjoy!

After a long hiatus, we're time traveling 30 years into the past to revisit the November 1991 issue of Nintendo Power, featuring Final Fantasy II!
