Podcast or no podcast, I will defend this game until the day I die.

Your weekly news, what we’ve played, and reader questions all make their return, but this week also featured another heated discussion on Zelda, lots of talk of Nintendo’s future amidst the lack of Madden, more elongated Mario RPG talk, and a solid discussion of Shadow of the Eternals. Enjoy!

Edit: I changed the podcast picture. It was too weird.

Despite being a bit late (sorry about that!), we managed to squeeze out another episode this week, and it was yet another great one! I don’t know what we’re drinking, but it’s making our podcasting skills way better– and way more fun for us! This week is all the regular stuff, a list about the top ten Wii U system sellers, and our week three discussion of Super Mario RPG!

I completely forgot what I was supposed to use for this week’s image, so here’s a funny picture of Reggie and Miyamoto and someone else as The Matrix.

And finally we see a glimpse of what the Book Club is meant to be via a long discussion of Super Mario RPG at the end of this week’s episode! You can also expect to hear news, what we played, listener mail, and a top ten list of your guys’ favorite announcements from Tuesday’s Nintendo Direct.

This Week’s Podcast Crew: Austin, Laura, and Jack

Did you hear they’re remaking Super Mario RPG for DS?

The first ever book club discussion definitely has some kinks to be worked out… but part of that is recording a podcast at midnight! Aside from that minor hiccup, all is well this week, from lengthy monologues about Fire Emblem’s storytelling to some truncated user questions to get through just like every week.

This Week’s Podcast Crew: Austin, Laura, and Jack

Gotta love old-school Bill Trinen and Satoru Iwata.

Almost entirely unrelated to the podcast: Is this seriously what Nintendo TVii’s TV Tag is for?

Why is Zelda so happy? Because we had the best podcast ever this week, and we talked a whole bunch about her games!

I don’t think Jack or Laura would disagree with me if I said that this podcast was the best one we’ve ever done. We got into so many deep and saturated tangental discussions, as well as having some great laughs, lots of news, and some somewhat surprising reader poll results. Enjoy!

This week’s episode is brought to you by Tomorrow Corporation’s Little Inferno!

The gang this week discusses Little Inferno and Mighty Switch Force! HD on Wii U, rant about how “no-items” Smash Bros. players frustrate Austin, and go over YOUR list of the top ten Wii U games that are worth looking forward to over the next two years. News, what we played, and questions all make their weekly returns.

This week we have a special guest named Glenn, who enlightens us on The Sims (and some general EA goofballery) as well as providing some insight into… uh… other things. Or something. The list this week is YOUR top ten Ocarina of Time dungeons, and we also go over news/what we played, just like every week. Enjoy!

Another solid show from the gang this week, and a great new format for lists– now with direct quotes from you guys seamlessly integrated in! The list this week is all about Mario Kart and the best and worst of the series; the news is normal, the what we played is normal, and everything else is normal. Enjoy!
