Not to digress too much on the subject, but I went into that fateful Pokemon Mystery Dungeon review (my first review copy EVAR) kind of excited. On paper, mystery dungeon games used to intrigue me, but they always lost me if/when I played then, with Pokemon Mystery Dungeon being the final straw.

After working on the Shiren Wii Preview from a month back, I'm interested again, though this time in nothing more than a review copy if I'm lucky (unlucky?) enough to review it. Shiren Wii looks to not be as fucking terrible as other Mystery Dungeon games, and for that, I'm interested.

The most likely situation is that I'll play it and hate it, but since Luke left, I don't think there are any Mystery Dungeon fans on the site.

Since you mentioned Jason Ricci and New Blood, I'd like to suggest that you switch back to "I'm a New Man" for the show opening. Don't get me wrong, I like "Done With the Devil," just not as much. Also, find some way to work "Down at the Juke" into the mix.

EDIT: After going back and listening to his music again, I have to say that the beginning of "I Turned Into a Martian" could be a pretty cool podcast opener.

I made a clip of "I Turned Into a Martian" that we never ended up using. However, I have some ideas for using a bit of Jason's music that we haven't played on the show before. ("Down at the Juke"? I don't even know that song, and I've seen over a dozen New Blood live concerts. I prefer the stuff that isn't hardcore, traditional blues.)

I don't know if it was this podcast that claimed there was no gold box for Wind Waker but my PAL limited edition version of WW has a gold box.

My NA version of Wind Waker has a gold box, too.
This would be my PSN Trophy Card, but I guess I can't post HTML in my Signature. I'm the pixel spaceship, and I have nine Gold trophies.

I can confirm you didn't hear that from this podcast.

If we had said that I would have cut that person off, since I know for a fact there is a gold box.

All I know of his music is the albums he has on iTunes (he actually came to my town within two weeks of me discovering his music, but it was so short notice that I'd already made plans for that night) and "Down at the Juke" is on Blood on the Road. It's more of a traditional blues song than some of his stuff, but is really excellent.
