RFN 400: The Highlights
« on: October 06, 2014, 10:53:00 AM »

Here are the podcast highlights from our first 400 episodes, as chosen by listeners! Update: Greatly improved audio quality for the AAC/M4A version of this episode!

Update: The enhanced AAC/M4A version of this episode was originally exported at much lower quality (by accident). We have now fixed the file, and you can get the correct version from the direct download link above, or by deleting and re-downloading this episode in your podcast feed application, if subscribed.

One of the reward tiers for our RFN 400 funding campaign offered generous donors a chance to pick their favorite moment and have it showcased on the anniversary podcast. We're just a bit late on bringing the highlight reel to you, but its contents won't disappoint. Listeners picked out some of the funniest, most embarrassing, most prescient, and most emotional highlights from the past eight years of Radio Free Nintendo. This compilation even includes not one, but two shameful musical performances!

Thank you again to all our donors and listeners for making RFN 400 so very special. We hope you enjoy this look back, as we prepare to move forward with brand new episodes coming very soon! As always, you can help fill those with great discussion by sending an email to the show.

THE LAMB IS WATCHING!

If I had been able to part with more money and get to pick a highlight, it would be Episode 321 where Jonny very emphatically predicts that Pandora's Tower will never be released in North America.  His exact quote (because I went back to listen) is "[Pandora's Tower] is REALLY a lost cause, forget that one.  Import! Import! Import!"


Xseed announced Pandora's Tower for North America literally 4 days after the episode is released.  While the crew's predictions are almost always wrong, this is surely the quickest that a prediction has ever been proven wrong!
I got hooked on the white stuff back in the 70s.

I thought there was one that was being disproved right after they recorded.

so, I don't have to edit as Much.

If I recall, we recorded Thursday, it was announced Friday, we released the episode Sunday.

I'm simply sad we missed out on Jon describing how he took 3 hours to get 15 minutes into Chrono Trigger. That bit always cracks me up.
