Smash the Game Awards

Veni, veni, venias. Sephiroth has had a pretty big week. From being announced as the newest playable character for Smash Bros. to winning two Game Awards (with help from other characters we suppose). Join us as we dive into all the goodness this week!

Trivia question of the day: During the SNES era Squaresoft made a game for the US in lieu of releasing Final Fantasy V as they feared it would be too complicated and not resonate with a western audience. (Answer at the bottom of the episode summary).
