<p>Jaymo’s brothers are back from outer space to see who will survive Alien Storm (Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, 1991), joining Mike and Jaymo as part of The Old SwitchAroo’s epic quest to research and review every retro game in Nintendo Switch Online’s Nintendo Classics catalog!</p><p><br /></p><p>In this episode, Jaymo pulls back the curtain on Sega’s AM1 Division and Team Shinobi as the Amusement Machine behind Alien Storm, we compare this to its stylistic forebearer Golden Axe and speculate about how the continues could’ve been handled better, and we all try to figure out what it is about the Nintendo Switch Online games that leads to such inconsistent frame rate performance when playing online multiplayer. Then Jaymo hosts a Mini-Game Minute: AI for Detail.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for listening, and a very special thanks to Kristal Fields of The Lazy Circles for our catchy theme song!
