Ah this brings back memories!
I discovered RPG Backtrack in early 2010, after the initial 10 episode run with Macstorm and the gang. I burned through the episodes, hungry for classic game discussions straight from hardcore RPG nerds like me. Every episode, Mac would say something like- “send a message to this email, let us know if you like the show and want us to make more, etc.”
I figured they weren’t doing episodes anymore, but I sent a message saying I liked the show and wanted to hear more. I got no reply, but like 2 days later, the show rebooted with Phil as host. I’m sure it was a coincidence but I like to think my email helped restart the show XD
Mario RPG was a great one to start with. It’s still one of my all time favorites and in my opinion- there really aren’t any games quite like it (even in the Mario series).
Anyway, happy 300!
