To quote the infamous Randy Pinkwood, "This one's got a surprise ending that'll leave you breathless."

We've been out of the game for a couple weeks, but we're back, with an early release to make up for our past infractions! And this one's a doozy, too, with around 80 minutes of pure podcast.

This week we go to town on topics of all types, from Pokemon Snap's release on the Virtual Console to Manhunt 2 getting its appeal in the UK to a game retail questionnaire posed to various presidential candidates. And, of course, there's that "shocking revelation" at the end.

See ya next episode, folks!

Oh. Man This is heartbreaking. And good luck Jonny.
PS: Good Luck with the marriage.

Wait, what's happening??? Jonny is leaving to work in PR at Bungie Studios?

IceCold · « **Reply #5 on:** December 11, 2007, 02:02:26 PM »

What's going on? I demand a press release.. (don't listen to RFN)

wulffman04 · « **Reply #6 on:** December 11, 2007, 02:32:05 PM »

*confused* WHY?

Crimm · « **Reply #7 on:** December 11, 2007, 02:35:03 PM »

The announcement was that Mike and Karl are leaving NWR.

Of course, we all wish them well.

WISH THEM WELL, FORUM SLAVES!

Awesome. My Word Coach sounds awesome.

Are they that heartbroken about the loss to Florida? No, seriously, I'll be listening to this one in full to find out well. And there goes my forum rivals, too. I guess they couldn't handle Tebow taking the Heisman.

I'd like to point out that obscenity laws aren't inherently unconstitutional. Miller v. California established what is called the "Miller Test."

Jonnyboy117 · « **Reply #11 on:** December 11, 2007, 06:03:00 PM »

The Miller Test only applies to local standards of obscenity. It's irrelevant to a federal-level discussion of media regulation.

nickmitch · « **Reply #12 on:** December 11, 2007, 06:52:48 PM »

This episode makes me sad. BOO!
But good luck with all your future ventures [read: heartbreaks], guys.

Crimm · « **Reply #13 on:** December 11, 2007, 07:01:34 PM »

But that makes matters even more irritating for publishers. Local rules over obscenity could be by federal obscenity laws if someone transports "obscene materials" (as judged by the Miller Test) over state lines.

Back in the early 2000s Attorney General Ashcroft presided over a fair number of such cases.

First Bloodworth goes Pro, then Karl leaves, then Crimm gets fired for sexual harassment...

WHEN WILL IT END?

But does Debbie in the mailroom call it a "thrilling ride"?

Karl Castaneda #2 · « **Reply #17 on:** December 12, 2007, 12:49:06 AM »

Indeed it is true, kids. I'm leaving NintendoWorldReport.com at the end of the month to pursue other opportunities. But like I said, I've got some cool specials in store for the iTunes version of my last show. I figure you guys might enjoy a surprise guest, a couple extra gag segments, etc.

If you've been listening to the podcast it's not all that surprising. Mike and Karl (Mike especially) seem to have lost a lot of interest in Nintendo lately. And while I've had some differences of opinions with both of them, it's sad to see them go. I wish you both the best of luck in the future.

Karl, are you still going to pop into the forums every now and then? If we create a What's Karl up to? thread will you share?

Hopefully this means more Evan and Windy.

Is that a double man-crush?

Karl Castaneda #2 · « **Reply #20 on:** December 12, 2007, 06:22:12 AM »

Hah, sure, vudu, if you guys care enough to know what I'm wasting time with, I'll pop in. And I appreciate the well-wishing.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #21 on:** December 12, 2007, 06:32:04 AM »

The What's Karl up to? thread has been created.

vudu · « **Reply #22 on:** December 12, 2007, 06:42:41 AM »

I mentioned this in this thread, but since Karl seems to only read threads that are about him I'm going to repeat myself.

If Karl and Mike do another episode of RFN you should try to get Evan and Stan involved. It would be great to have the four guys who started the podcast together again. Plus you could all pick Beatles-pseudonyms and sing a cover version of Sgt. Pepper's. Evan gets to be George Harrison. Mike has to be Ringo.

Of course we care enough, Karl. We don't support your school, but we'll support other stuff. Maybe you and Mike should switch to something more sensible?

Karl Castaneda #2 · « **Reply #24 on:** December 15, 2007, 07:55:47 AM »

I talked to Stan, and he's going to come on and riff a little bit. That segment's only going to be in the Special Edition, though (iTunes feed ONLY), so you'll have to be subscribed to hear it.
