Half Man, Half Poison Ivy – The TouchArcade Show #486

In this week’s episode of The TouchArcade Show we reminisce about the good old days of video game stores and ponder where it all went wrong. We also talk about food a bit, because what would a video games podcast be without a little food discussion? Next we talk at length about the huge expansion to Apple Arcade, and critique Apple’s strategy and thought process behind it all. Spoiler alert: I don’t think Apple has any idea what it’s doing when it comes to gaming-related stuff. As always links to the stories we discuss are in the Show Notes below.

Don’t forget to shoot us emails with any questions, feedback, or anything else relevant or irrelevant to [email protected]. We read ’em all, and love decoding messages written entirely in emoji. As always, you can listen to us with the links below… And if you like what you hear, please subscribe and/or drop us a review in iTunes. Much appreciated!
