Nintendo Okie

This week’s show is top notch, folks.  Dare I say it’s the greatest podcast of all time?  I dare.  We talk a little more Uprising as well as a few news games for the crew; Skylanders, Radiant Historia, Metal Torrent and Skullgirls.  As you may expect, we continue to talk about AR cards ruining our lives as well as Capcpom’s lack of spelling.  Tony helps me with my confusion about Project Rainfall and Micah I go from talking about Brawl to having an actual brawl.  Then out of nowhere, Tony has a totally none-PG breakdown when he reads a quote wrong.  Stay tuned after the ending song for that clip.

We want your emails, everybody.  Send them to podcast@nintendo-okie.com and we will read them on the show.  You can follow our Twitter, join our Facebook group, subscribe to our YouTube channel and talk on our forums.  I say this every week but I don’t think anybody ever reads this part.  Here is the link for the Square Enix station we mentioned during the show.

Do you think you know a lot about video games? Would you like to impress your friends with your vast knowledge of video game trivia? Well, now you’ll get the opportunity thanks to The Question Block. Season two of the show will feature a new segment we call “The Hot Seat” where you get to show just how much you know about Mario, Halo, or Japanese RPG’s.

You get to pick the category and we’ll ask you three questions relating to your chosen subject. Categories need to be related to a specific video game or franchise like Super Mario Bros. or the Mario franchise, a specific character like Master Chief and Link, or a specific genre such as first person shooters, RPGs or survival horror.

To be a part of The Question Block you’ll need a Skype account, a good microphone and a sense of humor. Send us an email (podcast@nintendo-okie.com) letting us know you would like to be on the show and what category we can quiz you on. We record the shows on Saturday nights at 9:00pm CST and that would be the best time to be available for recording, though we can occasionally accommodate other times.

Please note that The Hot Seat is for fun and bragging rights.  No prizes will be awarded for the appearance.

The show is going to sound a little different this week.  We recorded on location at Micah’s house so we didn’t use my computer and I guess a new version of Audacity was released at some point.  Anyway, I did the best I could but I had some problems leveling everybody before we started recording.  Plus everybody was using different mics… ugh whatever.  I’m probably the only one that cares.  Well, we talk about Xenoblade Chronicles this week as well has a lot of news; ranging from Electronic Arts as the worst company ever to Sega people moving to Nintendo.  Also, towards the end of the show we give away a code for Super Mario Land 2.  Enjoy.

If you want to talk to the crew, send an email to podcast@nintendo-okie.com.  You can join our Facebook group or follow us on Twitter.  Who knows when we might give away another game.  Don’t miss out on all the awesome talks on the forum and the funny/educational videos on our YouTube channel.

Once again we talk about Kid Icarus: Uprising since that seems to be the only thing we have played.  If that isn’t your thing you don’t need to worry.  I tell a tale of my late-night adventure to Walmart.  Sounds exciting doesn’t it?  If that doesn’t make you want to listen then get this.  Halfway through the news the show crashes due to multiple programs failing at the same time.  Things never quite recover as the show is anarchy from there.  Now do you want to listen?  Thought so.

The day has finally arrived.  A day I have waited 20 years for; a new Kid Icarus game are been released!  Hopefully you want to hear about it because we talk about it for pretty much the whole What’s In You Wii segment.  You can also expect some talk of AR cards, some Wii U coverage, the final judgment of GAME, Ubisoft’s horrid DRM and a little dash of Persona.  It’s a full show.   “Sorry to keep you waiting!”

We have a great interview right here, folks.  This time Tony and I have a chat with RedLynx community manager, Daniel Nixon.  We had an absolute blast recording this one so I’m sure y’all will enjoy listening to it.  We ask Daniel about the development and community for MotoHeroz, what we can expect from the upcoming Trials Evolution and its achievements and we also ask about RedLynx’s future with the Wii U and 3DS.  Then at some point, Daniel and I turn on Tony and put him in his place.  Serves him right.  That Tony guy acts like he can do whatever he wants just because he hosts the show.

If you want to become a part of the RedLynx community, you can follow them on Twitter (@RedLynxGamer) or join their Facebook group right here.  You can keep an eye on all RedLynx has to announce by reading their blog (written by Daniel himself) and don’t forget to head over to their forums and discuss all the ways you think Altaïr could ride a motorcycle.  Thanks again to Daniel for taking the time to talk with us.

As always if you want more hijinx from us, you can listen to our weekly podcast.  We also have a forum, Twitter account, Facebook group and a YouTube channel.  All thanks to the internet.  Thank you, internet.

This is the post for the podcast below.  I guess I am supposed to tell you about the show so you’ll want to listen to it.  Does that seem strange to anyone else?  Spoiler warning for the podcast I guess.  This week Micah returns to talk about Street Fighter X Tekken.  Meanwhile, Tony reveals his diabolical plan to make Micah spend all his money.  While all this is happening, I am taking apart the video card from my computer.  Kind of a weird show now that I think about it.

If you feel like sending us a question, send it to podcast@nintendo-okie.com.  You can join our Facebook group by going here (I hope anyway) or you can follow our Twitter tweets by going here.  Our forums are for talking and our YouTube channel is for looking.  Don’t get those two mixed up; you could get hurt.

Since everybody else has a life, we got an old-school, two-man show for y’all this week.  With more time to waste, Tony and I take the advantage and talk about Full House way more than should be allowed on a video game podcast.  Worry not, faithful listener, for we still find time to talk about topics relevant to video games such as being yelled at by John McEnroe, the Mario Party numbering system, crying cats, the CCG business and some horrible, Pokémon puns.  Will the fun ever stop?

If you want to add your Pokémon pun to the pile, send an email to podcast@nintendo-okie.com.  If your pun is under 140 characters, you could tweet it to us on Twitter.  If you want all your friends to know it, you can send it to us on Facebook.  If you want to up your production value, you could make a YouTube video and reply to one of our videos.  Of you could share it on our forum.  Which will you choose?  Get it?

Questions are asked on this episode of the Okie Cast.  What are the top five games Wii players want?  Who is still making SNES games?  Why haven’t Micah and I moved to Japan yet?  Will the Wii U controller be sentient?  Is Michael Pachter mad the Wii HD never happened?  These are the tough issues we talk through in episode 106.  We also talk about a few games; Zuma’s Revenge, Dillon’s Rolling Western, Zombie Parkour Runner and Namco Museum Virtual Arcade.

And here I thought it was a slow news week but it turns out we have a really long show today; over two hours.  How do we fill that much time?  Well, we harass each other a lot and we have a little talk with Gaz about a concerning situation in Europe.  We have talk of fighting on the moon, shooting yourself without knowing it and some other, not-so-crazy stuff.
