Merry Christmas! To celebrate, we've got four games set during this festive period for you to vote on. It's the last pod and poll of the year, so make it count!

Thanks for listening to us in 2025. We hope you have a great holiday and a happy new year, and we'll see you in 2026 for our GOTY special.

Go vote on the Christmas games @vg_hof on Twitter and/or @vghof on BlueSky. Oh, and tell us your game of the year and we'll read it out next episode. Emails welcome, as always, to videogamehof@gmail.com

Let's get niche, baby! We're dipping out of our (and most people's, really) comfort zones to nominate some games outside of the 'Big Four' console manufacturers.

Think SNK, NEC/Hudson Soft, Atari, Philips, 3DO Company... you get it. There's a huge number of bangers still available for their machines, some that defined the entire industry (and some that crashed it).

The only rule is no home computers. Amiga (except the CD32), Spectrum and Commodore 64 (sorry, Steve), that means you're out.

Vote for your favourite nominated game over @vg_hof on Twitter or @vghof on BlueSky and send us an email to videogamehof@gmail.com

We're back! After a brief hiatus (albeit one where we've recorded three pods and Alex just needs to get his arse in gear and edit them faster), we return to celebrate the golden era of gaming.

That's right, it's time to dust off your SNES or Mega Drive (or Mega CD, TurboGrafx-16 or Neo Geo) and get 16-bits of glory in ya. So many classics to choose from, and we've got four bangin' nominees for you on this one.

Go vote for the one you want in the Hall of Fame @VG_HOF on Twitter or @vghof on BlueSky. Send us an email to videogamehof@gmail.com
