Episode 081 – Not Sonic the Hedgehog (WCW vs. nWo games, 1997 and 1998)

This week in Your Parents Basement, the show has been taken over by a rogue element! We are no longer covering Sonic the  Hedgehog – and trust us, we’re so disappointed by that – and instead, we’re covering WCW vs. nWo World Tour from 1997, and WCW/nWo Revenge from 1998! Both are by Asmik Ace and AKI for the Nintendo 64. We’re joined by Steve’s buddy josh
