Maybe for 300...
Welcome to a decidedly NOT special episode of Nerds Without Pants, despite what the episode number may tell you. We’ve got some fun headlines and some deep discussion about a couple of games, so we hope you enjoy!
Nice.
Nerds Without Pants is back again, but we’re still getting back into the swing of things. Since we were on a six week hiatus it’s time to catch up on a ton of games that we’ve played since the last time we recorded before break. That’s right, folks, it’s time for an all Consumption Junction edition of NWP! But be sure to get the Stage Select topic and the announcement of the first Great Game Giveaway of 2020 at the top of the show.

Welcome, welcome, welcome, to the annual Nerds Without Pants music special!

But before that we talk some recent games, including Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy, Slender, and Unchained Blades.
