Episode 163: Nontendo Contenders
« on: January 10, 2015, 10:24:42 AM »

This week, we discuss our favorite Nontendo releases from 2014, and take a look at local StreetPass communities.

Hello, and welcome to episode 163 of Connectivity. We have two segments for you this week.

Kicking the show off, Scott, Alex and Addison share their top 3 Nontendo games from 2014. That's right, forsaking all things Nintendo, the guys discuss a wide variety of 2014's best PC, PS4, Xbox One and Vita releases. I'd list some of them here, but I don't want to ruin the surprise (or horror).

After that, Neal joins special guest and Nintendo Force backer Nick Oehlberg to discuss local StreetPass communities, including StreetPass Princeton. While online play is great, Neal and Nick share stories that illustrate how rewarding it can be to meet in real space with a group of like-minded gamers.

You can send us listener mail or your submission for best winter/snow/ice level music by clicking here. And if you have a moment, please rate and review the show on iTunes. We'll see you next week!

Director, NWR

Nontendo was cool because I don't think there was any overlap between our three lists. 9 different games from pretty much every platform represented.

Is anybody else having trouble listening to this episode? I've downloaded it four times now and it sounds like everybody is slowed down 5x.

Addy and I naturally speak a little laid back, but the speed seems normal. Anyone else hearing this?
