Episode 105: Directional Magnitude
« on: March 11, 2012, 11:34:34 PM »

Radio Trivia continues its multi-cultural tradition with guest co-host Guillaume Veillette from the Negative World Podcast.

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/radiotrivia/29521

You can hear Guillaume on the Negative World Podcast every other week.

Did you like this episode's game selections? Let your fellow listeners know in TalkBack! Think you've got a better choice? Then send it my way and your request might be on the next episode of Radio Trivia: Podcast Edition!  Heck, throw in a question and specific songs if you want.  Just remember, it has to be a game found on a Nintendo system in North America (unless we say otherwise)!

I hope people have as much fun listening to this as I had being on it!

I'm listening right now, and I'm never as eloquent as I think I've been. Heh.

Great show so far.  Listening to it at work.  Kinda jealous of you Guillaume! I've always dreamed of being a co-host on Radio Trivia!  I guess I have to start my own nintendo website to join!  :)  If only I had the time.  Maybe with TYP/Mets's permission I could make my own podcast one day.

I am almost certain the second song in the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde set is actually from Rygar (NES).

Fun episode! Good job Guillaume, you and TYP make a great team.  :)

I had not played game 1, Sword of Mana, but the music sounds great.

Alright, I got game 2 right! I'm pretty sure I played Vectorman for the first time on the Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection (on PS3). The animation is really great, but I had a hard time getting the hang of the multiplier system. I didn't know you could multiply all that stuff! I was terrible at the game and would always get stuck on the first boss.

I never played game 3, and I'm glad I only experienced Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde through AVGN.

Oh man, I haven't played game 4, Sin & Punishment: Star Successor either. It's on my shelf waiting to be played. I'll get to it!

I had not played game 5, Ivy the Kiwi, but wow, the music is very soothing.

Good selection of games Guillaume!

Thanks to "Rainy Tears" (the second song from the first game), I have now hunted down the rest of the OST.  Keep up the great work, guys.
