Negative World Podcast 094 - A Pot Of Rupees Is Waiting For You

Nintendo finally did it… they finally revealed the 'NX'… and Negative World is here to talk about it! In this episode you'll find that Joe (Ninsage) and Stephen (DrFinkelstein) are joined by the one, the only, Anand (Anand)!

The episode begins with a saturated 'Now Playing' segment as each game discussed turned into a broader franchise discussion. Games discussed were Mario Golf: World Tour and other Mario Sports titles, Destiny (Xbox), The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD and other Zelda games in that style, Paper Mario: Color Splash and the Paper Mario series… and finally SteamWorld Heist on Wii U.

After the break the gang gets in to a detailed and lengthy discussion about Nintendo's Switch console which is coming in March 2017. Nintendo is aiming to keep their promise and the trio examine the system from the design, to the promotion, to the games Nintendo hinted at, and much more! The hype is real!

Negative World's site owner and operator, Zero provides the intro and outro. Break music featured a little ditty from Paper Mario: Color Splash.

Negative World Podcast 093 - Stomping Like Koopzilla

Earlier this October, DrFinkelstein took a short drive over to the Ploot household for a day of gaming. This time, he brought the podcast microphone! Due to scheduling and technical hurdles Joe sits this episode out but inside you'll find a good 88-minutes of Nintendo talk from assorted Negative Worlders! On the show there's Paul (Ploot), Dave (BeardedNerd), Trish (TK_Thunder), Erika (EponaEatsCarrots), and of course Stephen (DrFinkelstein).

After announcing what they're drinking the crew goes 'round the room and discusses what games they've been playing lately. You'll hear discussion on games such as Kirby Triple Deluxe, Pokemon Go, Yokai Watch 2: Fleshy Souls, Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations, Mario Bros., and Ice Climber. There's also broader discussion on different franchises like Pokemon and Professor Layton.

Since Dave didn't get to vote in any of the Super Smash Bros. Character Bracket, and since the Nintendo Switch hadn't been revealed yet, the gang discusses Super Smash Bros for Wii U in great length. Character comparisons, Character Roster theory, and a bit of history all wrapped into one package!

Negative World's site owner and operator, Zero provides the intro and outro. Music at the break is non-existent since there was no break. This was all live in the same basement-gamer-cave!

Later on after the break the guys get around to discussing some news that hit in early September in Nintendo's last Nintendo Direct. They ponder the relevance of 3DS versions of Wii U titles like Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS and Yoshi's Woolly World (3DS). Other news caught everyone's ears too so stay tuned for more discussion!
