Скачать или смотреть XVGM Radio Podcast - Episode 119: The Sound of the Sharp X68000

Released in 1987, the Sharp X68000 would lead the way for Japanese computer systems, ending its reign around 1996. Utilizing the Yamaha YM2151 sound chip would make the computer sing some of the best FM synthesis based VGM ever released. Today on XVGM Radio, we’re joined by our third host NikoTengoku to spotlight just a taste of the amazing tunes on this system. Niko falls in love with developer Exact, Mike goes on about songs sounding simple then praises the most simplistic song picked for the show, and Justin takes a call from…EVIL NIKO?! Oops, ALL BANGERS on this one! It’s all on this super fun, super rockin’ episode of XVGM Radio!
