Podouken

From the owners of 100+ arcade and pinball cabinets, and the proprietors of a real-life arcade comes PODOUKEN, a podcast that takes a deep dive into the world of video arcade games and explores the history, story, strategy, art, music, and the fun of this often overlooked culture of video games.

Each biweekly episode covers a featured arcade game all within a larger themed miniseries. For instance, our Street Fighter II episode kicked off our Fighting Game Wars miniseries which also covered games like Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting, and Fighter’s History.

The end of most miniseries finishes with an Arcade Obscura episode where each host talks about an underrated or obscure arcade game from the theme of that miniseries.

So join us for an exploration of the pixels and sprites that we know and love when new episodes are released every other Wednesday!
