Abnormal Mapping 128: Sonic Chaos and Tails Adventure - a podcast by Em Marko and Jackson Tyler

Abnormal Mapping is here to talk about two Sonic games that were designed for the Game Gear and the first generation of dedicated handheld games and why they often were saddled with the reputations they would carry with them for decades to come. These games are all right tho! Also an extended what we’ve been playing, featuring Jack Chaos and Metroid herself.
