Episode 76: A Winner is Karl
« on: July 20, 2010, 02:27:45 AM »

After three long years, Karl rejoins Radio Trivia for a grand old time.

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/radiotrivia/23729

Games featured in this episode:

Killer 7 (GC)
Mega Man 9 (Wii)
Hotel Dusk: Room 215 (DS)
Tetris 2 (NES)
Plok! (SNES)

(Highlight the text above with your cursor to view it.)

Did you like the second, third, and fourth games? 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)!

It's probably just a typo, but the URL for this episode has a bracket in the middle of it, causing it to go 'Page Not Found'. I could get to the episode by simply removing the bracket from the address, but I figured you ought to know about the error.


Good show as always. As usual, I only guessed 2 games (and one of them was my request, so that technically doesn't count).

For the record, they didn't announce the Hotel Dusk sequel for an American release until the day AFTER we recorded this, so at the time I wasn't completely wrong.

2/5 for me. Great episode with the perfect amount of comedy and information to keep my entertained from start to finish. Great to hear Karl back around NWR as always as well.

Only 2/5, but I'm very happy to have gotten the first game without ever having heard the music. Weird music, but Karl says it's serious... what games are both? Oh wait, it's Karl of course it's Killer 7.

It was for European release, bro. American release is still not confirmed.

Good episode. As usual I was terrible at figuring out the games, but I enjoy the music and the comments on the games.

I loved the episode as well.  Good discussion, and it reminded me that I haven't yet listened to the latest episode of Reset Button.  As I'm stuck putting in long hours in the computer lab, I shall be listening post haste.

Did I hear wrong, or is it that I just can't find these Reset Button interviews? Looked at all 3 Reset Button features, but couldn't find squat.
