Y2Gamers
Welcome to the Y2Gamers Podcast, a place where two long time friends and gaming rivals co-op and talk about a golden age of gaming, anime, and geek culture at the turn of the millennium. Each week, across the Pacific Ocean, we explore a fun new topic through our unique and wacky vantage points and share plenty of laughs along the way! About the hosts: Ming is a long-time gaming enthusiast with a special love for fighting, racing, and role-playing games. He also loves anime, sci-fi, and all things Japanese language and culture. He currently works and lives in Beijing, China...where he misses driving and unfettered internet access a lot! On the US east coast, Nick is an active member of the North Carolina gaming community with a specialty in fighting games and impossibly hard bullet-hell shooters. He is also an avid runner and eats marathons for breakfast!

Always seemingly the underdogs of their generations, both the Saturn and the Dreamcast struggled against the likes of Sony and Nintendo during their all-too-short lifespans. But yet they remain our favorite systems of their time because of the insane amount of quality import titles that were otherwise not easily available to American gamers. Arcade-perfect 2D fighters, flowery JRPGs, and other oddities made for a truly memorable decade of gaming. Join us this week on Y2Gamers as we remember two of the very best systems and import games from Sega's sunsetting hardware days!
