Probably the most beautiful shot in the game; a beautiful homage to the very first ever NintendoEverything Book Club game being dominated!
Edit: Something’s up with the podcast host. Working on it now.
Talk about a long podcast! About 50 minutes of Super Mario RPG discussion wraps up the end of the episode preceded by all your regular news, what we played, listener questions, and a lengthy impromptu discussion on the nuances of game design and how fewer technical limitations could be bad for the industry. Enjoy!
The next book club poll will be posted tomorrow at some point, so look forward to that and thanks to everyone who played along. :]

Okay, I admit that this is far from a major discount, but it is a deal: Fire Emblem: Awakening is available on Amazon for $34.96. Given how tough it has been to find Awakening at retail, that’s a pretty darn good price. And have we mentioned that the game is great?
The latest video additions to the 3DS eShop are as follows:

Insomniac CEO and founder Ted Price recently said that he considers the Wii U to be more of a current-gen console. That doesn’t mean that he and his studio have no interest in the console, however.
In fact, Price himself is a fan of the Wii U, and believes high-quality Nintendo games will give a much-needed boost to the system:
“As a player what I would love to see is more of those games that I grew up with. Zeldas, Marios, Metroid – those are the games I look for from Nintendo, and I hope more of them come out for the Wii U.”
