As we can return out, we're backtracking for justice.

Everyone and welcome to the latest exciting episode of RetroNuts East.

I am Jeremy Pursh and joining me this week we have luminaries from the internet such as

Chris Sims.

Where are you, Illuminary these days?

Just all around. Probably at your local comic book shop is the best place to find me,

but I'll plug all that stuff at the end of the show.

Okay. And also Ben Jedwich.

And you of course write for everywhere vintage.com. Guys are so vague.

Yeah. I'm already very bad at selling myself.

As you can tell from the vagueness this is another RetroNuts East here on the East Coast of America.

And this week we are, it is cloudy yes, but probably not when this episode comes out.

That's a great news.

But this week we are talking about a topic near and dear to my heart.

And mine too.

And DaVinci's heart and.

And definitely mine.

All right. And that topic is the origins of Metroidvania.

And I don't necessarily mean the word. I mean like the genre.

I mean we can talk about the origins of the word if you want to.

Well, there's a lot of disinformation.

That one seems pretty simple.
