Summary: <p>Coming off of last week's episode featuring songs picked by Bedroth, this episode is Shootkapow's, who picked not only the topic, but all of the songs - each coming from a game that promintently features sword-swinging characters! Inspired by the "too many swords" jokes about Smash Bros, Shootkapow takes us on another ride through the wide world of VGM across multiple console generations. We hope you like Zelda, Fire Emblem, and RPG's, folks! As always, of course, it all follows our one big rule: everything has to be Very Good Music!</p> <p>Thanks to our listeners, Dan Laughton, UtopiaNemo, Voltz Supreme, and RJ Garcia, for our lightning round picks!</p> <p>As always, if you have any comments, questions, or requests, please send them to verygoodmusicvgm@gmail.com, or leave a comment on YouTube! </p> <p>Shout out to Ben "The Diad" Dishman for his help with the awesome pixel art for our show!
