Nintendo's Weirdest Games Of All Time
Thursday, 5 February, 2026
We'll DM you on Patreon with a Steam code for the fantastic game Sektori if you support MinnMax at the $2 tier before Monday, February 9th. This is for NEW supporters only, not returning or upgrading. 200 Steam codes available, we'll update this description if we run out. https://www.patreon.com/minnmax MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Kelsey Lewin, and Kyle Hilliard are joined by Jeremy Parish (who you might know from Retronauts or 1UP back in the day) as we each share picks of some of the weirdest Nintendo games of all time. From Hudson's take on Donkey Kong to Doshin the Giant, we cover the full history of Nintendo here. Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week! You can win a prize and help make the show better by supporting us on Patreon and submitting a question! https://www.patreon.com/minnmax Watch and share the video version here - https://youtu.be/RxlxyPWGsOo Check out Jeremy Parish's YouTube series here - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrIttXi0WgLXHI1poCk0D6g Subscribe to Retronauts here - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/retronauts/id672857593 Donate to our ICE Out charity drive to help protect the people of Minneapolis - http://bit.ly/iceoutminneapolis Help support MinnMax's supporters! https://www.iam8bit.com - 10% off with Promo Code: ILOVEIAM8BIT To jump to a particular discussion, check out the timestamps below... 00:00:00 - Intro 00:03:00 - Introducing Jeremy Parish 00:09:56 - Get a Steam code for Sektori 00:11:14 - Nintendo's weirdest games 00:13:08 - Mario Artist 00:18:50 - Doshin the Giant 00:20:18 - Looksley's Line Up 00:22:06 - Link n Launch 00:22:56 - Rusty's Real Deal Baseball 00:25:09 - Nintendo e-Reader 00:30:22 - Grill-Off with Ultra Hand! 00:31:43 - Captain Rainbow 00:32:38 - Famicom Modem 00:36:44 - BS The Legend of Zelda: Ancient Stone Tablets 00:39:02 - Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer Featuring The Legend of Zelda 00:41:15 - Super Mario Bros.
