Episode 56: Running Lodes
MAH NAME IS BRUFUS
We realized after last week's (monstrous) episode that we might be pushing the running time a bit too far with episodes that exceed an hour, especially episodes that get close to 90 minutes. So we cut the fat for this week's iteration, including the death of Whatcha Been Playin' (in favor of the very-sexy "New Business"), as well as cutting an entire co-host (only three voices this time).
Still, at 45 minutes, there's a lot to enjoy here, from the first ever discussion of Nintendo World Report's Hot Topic to the news about four different Smash Bros. control schemes, and even a teaser about what to expect next week (hint: it will be good times).
As always, please remember to Digg Radio Free Nintendo (via the link above), subscribe to and review us on iTunes, and send in listener mail. Thanks, guys! Come back next week!

Perrin Kaplan are you?On a more serious note, the increased focus is great. There was nothing wrong with what your playing, it was just that you were playing the same thing week after week. You can bring it back in under the New Business format, but limit your-self's a bit more. Leave the insane rants for (the now dead?) Nintendo pirate radio.
It did feel a bit short as in you left me wanting more, but 45 - 60 minutes seems to be where the mark is at unless it is really funny,

Stupid Mac :P
Yep, back in the day you could rent consoles kids.
I thought it had a 32 bit and 64 bit chips... There you go
Lazy.
lol. The game distributors have some hardlines as well. Its like the movie industry. That argument is the same as and X or R rated movies traumatizing kids.
Its standard for you not to be able work in the same industry as you leave. Though if you get laid off some things change.
Just a better people person.
That numbers been around since launch.
Smash_Brother will. He has to have something to complain about so that SB64 is the purest form.
Its like Nicotine patches.
Yeah... Zelda, Trauma Center if you complete it all, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Sonic and the Secret Ring, Super Paper Mario, Super Swing Golf...
Playground does look scary.
Farcry vengeance is 20 bucks.
Now think about how much Nintendo made off of just you guys buying VC games.
RRR Shooting levels... Thats all I can think of.
IN all of History.
The Micromachine guy always talks that way. I was surprised to find that out.

As for the podcast's length, I really think having it between 45 minutes and an hour is the sweet spot, and it's what we'll be aiming for from now on. This summer will be host to a lot of tweaks to RFN. This week's changes were definitely for the better, I think (replacing Whatcha Been Playing, Mike has a headset now, etc), and hopefully, by August, the quality level will be much higher.

I wish I was on to converse about the controls. I'm convinced that the sideways Wii remote is going to have Smash attacks so simplified that that is the control mode that will be banned from competition. It's just going to be, push the attack button while shaking the remote in some random way.

Come to think of it, game "exploits" may be a good Hot Pocket Topic.

I'd like to ask Jonny for some clarification. He stated that the 360 is currently receiving a steady stream of at least one big title per month. Come again? Forza came out end of last month. I guess you could count Guitar Hero II and Spider-Man, even though one is a port of a PS2 game and the other one sucked. Has anything else significant come out since Gears of War/Crackdown? It anything significant going to come out before Halo 3?
