Capcom has taken a bold step in its re-release of Mega Man X5 as part of the Mega Man X Legacy Collection by relocalizing the game to change the names of the Mavericks from the out-of-place monikers such as Duff McWhalen and The Skiver to the more proper Tidal Whale and Spiral Pegasus.  It's certainly not the first time a beloved game has been tinkered with for a re-release, and on this episode of Power Button we spend an hour discussing other games that have changed over the years across iterations.  Donkey Kong, Halo Anniversary Collection, Super Mario 64 DS,,Tomb Raider Anniversary, The Secret of Monkey Island, and more round out the conversation.   Download this week's episode directly from PTB, listen with the player below, find us on Stitcher, subscribe via iTunes and Google Play, toss this RSS feed into your podcast aggregation software of choice, and be sure to catch up on past episodes if you're joining us late.

Licensed video games based on childrens' television properties have been with us for decades, but sometimes a game publisher reaches deeper into a media catalog and comes up with a game based on a primetime sitcom or syndicated drama.  On this episode of Power Button, Blake Grundman and I spend an hour discussing games based on TV shows such as ALF, Happy Days, Home Improvement, Time Trax, Stargate SG-1, Dallas, Dark Angel, and many more.  Take off your sneakers and stick around for awhile.  We've got it all on Power Button.   Download this week's episode directly from PTB, listen with the player below, find us on Stitcher, subscribe via iTunes and Google Play, toss this RSS feed into your podcast aggregation software of choice, and be sure to catch up on past episodes if you're joining us late.
