Nerds Without Pants Episode 247: Just Do a Little Trick!

Grapes of Wrath.

I know what you’re thinking: Why is this episode of Nerds Without Pants over 5 hours long? Well, we had Mike Fallek on, so you do the math.

Here's some video game songs I think are pretty:

Sacrifice from ActRaiser

Lost Harmony Among People from Ys Seven

Terra's Theme from FF6

Stage Select:

The Ding Dong Dell theme from Ni no Kuni, from Ghibli composer Joe Hisaishi.

Cage Match:

Going with Rhapsody on this one, as it was pretty much America's introduction to the zaniness and style of NIS. I've been playing it on Switch as part of one of the NIS Classics collections. It wins just because you can actually attack your enemies with a stack of giant pancakes with syrup. Kartia was interesting, too, as it was illustrated by Yoshitaka Amano, whose art-style was noticeably absent from FFVII. The main character looked a lot like Terra from FFVI.
