In this episode of the Famicast, James Charlton, Matt Walker, and Danny Bivens talk about their experiences during the huge earthquake that rocked Japan last month. The NWR Japan team also lets you know a few different ways how you can support relief efforts.
On a related note, the guys will inform you about the games that are being delayed in Japan due to the quake. Upcoming game releases for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii are also discussed, including the releases of Chrono Trigger and Mega Man X on the Japanese Virtual Console!
Next, the Famicast crew tackles some great questions from the forums and via email, covering the Japanese arcade scene, retro gaming, game themed bars, toilets, and love hotels. Listen in to learn more about Japanese culture, toilets, and gaming! We love to receive your questions, so please, keep them coming!
Finally, we wrap up the show with another competition that will not only give you a chance to win a cool prize but also learn and/or use Japanese. Listen to find out how you can be a winner!
If you have any questions or comments for the Japan crew, stop by our forum thread or email us directly. We will try to answer all of your questions, with the best questions appearing on the show.
Famicast a go-go baby!
Glad to see this continuing so soon after the last one! Even after only two podcasts, I have to say that you guys make a pretty good team and that the show's got some great content so far: please keep them coming! I also like the music breaks, although that leads to my only criticism; the volume when you guys speak is too low, so I have to crank the volume on my iPod up to hear what you're saying. The problem is that the music breaks play at normal volume, so they're much louder than anything else. Other than that, you guys have everything covered. Again, good job!
