This week on The Retro League podcast we take a trip back to August 1991 to relive the Super Nintendo launch. Some consider it the greatest game system ever made and we're hard-pressed not to agree. We also catch-up with one of our founding hosts to talk portable gaming and magazine publishing. If that's not enough we also discuss how video games were influenced by Dungeons & Dragons and remember the demise of the Atari Jaguar.
