[radio] Other METROID 09.04.10 - Travis

It's time for another edition of Nintendorks Radio with your hosts Travis Woodside and Garret Evans. You can get your episode now on iTunes (search for Nintendorks Radio in the iTunes store) or right here.

Episode 059 - Hey, remember me?
Metroid Other M releases to mixed reviews. Basically everyone loves it except nerds wearing haterpants. Let's talk about that.


Garret was nice enough to edit this episode for me so let's all have a nice round of d-pad twisting for him!

Things we meant to mention: need for 3DS Metroid, furry gizmo, how many Ridleys are there and do they have a club?

Special thanks to OCremixer Vigilante for his awesome Zebesian Midnight track that he'll never know we included in our radio programme.

Other games discussed: Limbo, Dead Rising 2 Case Zero, whatever Garret played

[radio] E3 Pizzacast 2010 06.18.10 - Travis

Once a year we sit around the campfire and share tales of adventure and woe. At the same time we eat pizza. We call this the pizzacast. You can get your episode now on iTunes (search for Nintendorks Radio in the iTunes store) or right here.

Pizzacast 2010
Our official E3 festivities for 2010. A retelling forged with one microphone. We discuss 3DS, Kinect, Move, Zelda: Skyward Sword, Kirby: Epic Yarn, Metroid: Other M, NAMBOJAM, and more!

Nambo Jam is so good, you guys.




We hope you enjoyed the E3 coverage. It's been more work than you think! Write us at radio@nintendorks.com.

E3 2010. 06.15.10 - Kevin


Hey, everybody! Did you guys know that the video game company Nintendo will be talking about their new video games tomorrow morning? At 9:00 AM (PACIFIC TIME, WHICH IS THE ONLY TIME THAT MATTERS), Nintendo is going to trot out Cammie, Reggie and the gang to get us all excited about the coming year. They might show a new, beautiful Zelda! We could see the mysterious 3DS which is going to be a portable PS3, right? I bet that dudes in multi-colored polo shirts will smile and pretend to get super excited about a video game! Miyamoto might ride a (damn) horse out onto stage! Maybe we'll see a new peripheral that attaches to your hair and monitors its slow and steady growth! The possibilities are truly endless.

The Nintendo Press Conference kicks off Nintendorks coverage of the 2010 E3, the yearly competition by various video game companies to see who can do the most incredibly bizarre shit. Microsoft, last night, pretty much won with a Cirque du Soleil crazy-fest. I can't even describe the event without sounding like I am making shit up. Ubisoft countered today with both a Laser Tag game and a game designed to teach you how to breathe? Nintendo really has a challenge ahead of itself. We'll be there all week, and you can follow us in a variety of manners:

- Follow us on twitter!
- Check out our youtube page!
- Look at pictures on our flickr page!
- Watch for wry remarks directly from the press conference in the studio!
- Ask us questions on the forum (now with open-to-the-public goodness)
- You can also ask questions here on "formspring," if you don't want to deal with those crazies on the forum.

Seriously, unlike other websites, where the game journalists pretend to care about their readers (but then TRICK they care about you as much as the booth babes care about them), we really care. We are you. We like things! We want to know what you think. What are your opinions? Who do you want us to fight (to the death)?

We'll see you guys in the studio tomorrow morning, ok?

[radio] California Love 06.12.10 - Travis

A representation of people watching the Nintendo press conference on the internet.
For our special pre E3 episode we have myself, Kevin, Cory, and Garret talking about things that are maybe partially in relation to E3. You can get your episode now on iTunes (search for Nintendorks Radio in the iTunes store) or right here.

Episode 058 - PRE3 2010
Our Pre E3 festivities for 2010 before we vanish into the fade.

Plans, predictions, and expectations. Everything you'd expect from a Pre E3 show. And Heavy Rain and Jurassic Park. Because.

We have actually received a really nice e-mail regarding our Mario topic from the last episode, but chose to save that for our next non-E3 related show. If you have more ideas for where the Mario franchise should go in the future then please send your ideas to us. E-mail link at the bottom.




Questions for us at E3? Wanting us to call you for our annual Pizzacast on Thursday night, June 17th? Want to send an unrelated E3 comment for a future episode? Write us at radio@nintendorks.com.

We're going back, everybody.

[radio] Fired up! (a very special StarCraft II episode) 05.09.10 - Travis

It's time for another edition of Nintendorks Radio with your hosts Travis Woodside and Garret Evans. You can get your episode now on iTunes (search for Nintendorks Radio in the iTunes store) or right here.

Episode 056 - Well Burn My Biscuits
StarCraft II discussion herein. Biscuit burning and flying buildings. Also, apparently Super Mario Galaxy 2 is out soon.

Apologies for some sound issues in this episode. Though I was wearing an overly expensive headset I accidentally recorded all of my sound through an internal macbook speaker. It's not awful sounding, but its not ideal and it picked up some lovely background noise at times including, but not limited to, mouse clicking and typing.

Other games discussed: Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Cave Story

Disclaimer: We kept saying "Well burn my biscuits!" but the quote in game is apparently, "Well butter my biscuits." It's spoken by a SCV in StarCraft II.

Review - Rooms: The Main Building (Wii/DS) 03.29.10 - Travis

“Rooms: The Main Building” is a difficult game to review. This is because the game is just sliding block puzzles. That’s it. Hundreds of sliding block puzzles. Yet, the execution here is near flawless. This is the only game I’m aware of that makes sliding block puzzles its focus and it does it so well that it’s difficult for me to hold a grudge. Truth is; it’s just not for me. It might be for you.

Mr. X is initially alarmed by his horrible birthday present, but quickly accepts his fate.  Must not be his worst birthday ever.
