I just started the podcast and I'm really enjoying this episode of Radio Free Star Wars.

As for EA Sports, the Wii games do have the standard options in addition to Family Play, the big thing in Nintendo Power says so.

I think Greg is an anomaly among Brits in terms of his fascination with the NFL. He follows it more closely than I do, and I'm one of those "check the Falcons page on ESPN.com and AJC.com every day" kinda guys.

I'll never know why he sticks with the Bills, though. I mean, Buffalo isn't even a nice place to visit, so that shatters the "One day I'll see my team play at home in person" dream right there. Greg, you should have picked Miami or San Diego.

Errrrrr no, you're not going to convince me I should've picked Miami. And I have been to Buffalo to see them in person, it was entirely awesome and I'm sure the city needed my tourist dollars, so put that in your pipe and smoke it

Florida (and thus Miami) is crap place anyway. It's hot and humid.

Actually, the Bills have a large number of Canadian fans. In fact, they come to the games in such numbers there was a little talk of moving them a few miles, which would put them in Canada.

So if I listen to this podcast I get to hear complaining about the prequels and George Lucas? Maybe I should skip this one!

Actually, I defend the Star Wars prequels in some ways.

Regarding other Nintendo podcasts, I downloaded last week's episode of IGN Nintendo Voice Chat and did enjoy that. It's very brisk and has little in-depth discussion since they cover so many topics in an hour. I think it's a nice complement to our leisurely meandering style.

Say what you will about IGN, but they're quite good at producing podcasts and videos.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #31 on:** June 08, 2008, 11:48:24 PM »

I love IGN's podcast with Mark and Matt, I look forward to it ALMOST as much as I look forward to your guy's.

Another good podcast, I liked the Star Wars talk, do Lord of the Rings next.

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #33 on:** June 09, 2008, 02:57:20 AM »

You should do Lord of the Nut Sack Flies

i think they are planning to play several games here in Toronto over the next couple of years or something like that.

And also, you can talk about Star Wars or Star Trek all you want without sounding like a total geek as long as you speak english. I say "english" because a co-worker of mine told me horrible stories about people in costumes arguing very loud in a the middle of comic book/sci-fi conventions about "who is the better captain, Picard or Kirk?" in klingon.... yes.... KLINGON.... think about it.

Deep-Six · « **Reply #35 on:** June 10, 2008, 01:24:44 AM »

so... what was the bleeped word.

Anyway, I only listen to 3 podcast and in order from what I think is best to least goes as follows

1. NWR
2. GoNintendo
3. IGN

IGN is so unenthusiastic in their podcasts that I only listen to them because they've played games that haven't been released yet, and for little slips of exclusive news (like the Kid Icirus Game)

GoNintndo is more of just a bunch of funny guess messing around while reading news, reader-mail, and guessing what music is from which old game. It's like your podcast if it wasn't organized.

Plus: Greg FTW!!!!!!

**** I think

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #37 on:** June 10, 2008, 03:53:27 AM »

Looks like the "Let's Be Stupid" cast has a fan!

Hey I'm just answering the man's question.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #39 on:** June 10, 2008, 11:56:25 AM »

There's also Infendo Radio. which isn't bad.

Oh god, I'm sorry Greg. Buffalo is .... not so nice. You are definitely correct though, the city needs every tourist dollar it can get.

IGN is great for news (they're basically Nintendo's Press Secretary) and RFN is great for analysis, debates, and laughs. The only other Nintendo centric show I like is Infendo. Scott and Blake have a great enthusiasm for Nintendo, while still being objective in their praise and criticism.

This may have already been said, but the Balance Board registers as controller 4 when you push the home button. That would seem to point to it not being able to recognize 4 because at least one controller would have to be a remote.

Buffalo's two biggest tourist attractions, IMHO:

1) Border crossing to Canada
2) Airport

exactly, move to NE or KS and then learn to appreciate every other place on earth.

Yeah we need more Pale hate for not responding to my PMs.

Yoshidious · « **Reply #48 on:** June 11, 2008, 04:48:45 PM »

Forget all the Buffalo hate, the important thing is here is that the gameday experience of seeing the Bills was awesome. Conversely, if I wanted the joy of warm weather, a vibrant economy and empty seats, then I would be a Dolphins fan.

NO love for the Packers? Good cuz I hate the Packers.
