This special episode of the Negative World podcast is about one thing and one thing only (and yet still manages to be longer than any previous episode somehow): the Electronic Entertainment Expo!
Listen to Guillaume and TriforceBun talk about their experience at E3, getting their hands on demos for games that will not come out for months! Carlosrox plays the role of the everyman who did not get to go to E3 but really wishes he had.
The Wii U, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Luigi's Mansion 2, Mario Kart 3DS, Super Mario, Kid Icarus, Rhythm Heaven, Resident Evil Revelations and many, many more are discussed. Perfect for those 2 hours and a half commutes! Hey, we had to make up for a 3 weeks long absence, right?
As usual, the music comes from Negative World's owner and dictator, Zero.

Negative World Podcast 010 - Shtooloo?
The Negative World Podcast celebrates its tenth episode by doing nothing special at all! Celebrate with us in much the same way by listening to it!
Warerare starts us off by asking what E3 represents for us. We are discussing not so much the even itself as we are discussing how we feel about it. Yes, grown men talking about their feelings. The Negative World podcast has taken estrogen and is liking it.
Guillaume, who DOES know the proper pronunciation of Cthulhu thank you very much, discusses licensed games simply to have an excuse to use the music from the moon level of Duck Tales as a transition.
Finally Paleo flat out asks us to justify paying for the Virtual Console when it's so easy and so free to get these games elsewhere. Is the answer "just because"? Listen and find out!

Negative World Podcast 009 - Dumb kids with more money than sense
On this episode, only three people could make it, but that's okay: they ramble a lot!
The ever topical Anand ponders about the possibilities that Project Café could bring to the table if the rumored specs are true, especially the touch screen integrated in the controller. Does he have a better answer than just checkers and solitaire? You will have to listen to the end to find out!
Guillaume, ever repentant, tries to be positive for once in his life and asks about the positive things gaming has brought YOU, the listener. He is immediately accused of being stealthily negative.
Finally kriswright, ever the newb, decides to simply talk about what he loves the most in the whole world: pinball. He does not, however, deign answer why he simply doesn't marry it. Kris also tackles the big question of the death of arcades and whether they could be brought back.

Negative World Podcast 008 - Bear with us
On this chapter of the Negative World Podcast, listen to four Nintendo nerds discuss video games, for a change!
Guillaume wonders what happened to role-playing games, and role-playing gamers. Hear him admit to the world that he may have judged Final Fantasy VII unfairly (but its clones still suck)
Chrisbg99, inspired by Negative World's Adventure Island review, asks about difficulty in games: most of us can agree that gamers have it too easy these days, but do we really want to go back to the days of hair-pulling difficulty?
Octorockin, ever curious to learn more about the gaming industry, asks why more games don't include special features: commentary tracks, documentaries, and other bits of info about the process of making the game we're playing.
Finally, Marsh shares his conclusions as to why he is not more interested in the 3DS than he is and asks why we play video games. Everyone seems to agree that playing games is simply rad, save for one. Can you guess who it is?
As usual, the music comes from Negative World's owner and dictator, Zero. (The lyrics are gone this time).

Negative World Podcast Episode 007 - Back in glasses-free 2D
It's back to the usual format for the Negative World crew in the wake of the 3DS launch.
Guillaume is forced to accept a truth that had been staring him in the face for a long time, now, but that he cannot escape any longer: he is the last person on Earth to still care about the Wii's Virtual Console. The rest of the crew manages to muster some excitement for the potential of the 3DS virtual console, however!
Deathly_Hallows makes up for his absence in the special 3DS episode (due to mic problems) by talking about Ridge Racer 3D, as well as backing the host's positive opinion of Steel Diver.
JKR (of Fred the Monkey fame!) decides that for his first appearance on the podcast, he should tackle the very non-controversial topic of Nintendo's stance on the iTunes App Store and its effect on the gaming industry for developers and gamers.
Finally GelatinousEncore, having already discussed his favorite Nintendo franchise in the first episode, decides to talk about his second favorite, Metroid, and the franchise's decent into linearity and female obedience.
The opening music comes from your lovable despotic site owner, Zero, with original lyrics by JKR!
The closing music is an awesome remix of the Brinstar theme from Super Metroid, from NWer Autokymatic.

Discover how the 3DS has turned Pandareus into a creepy stalker in spite of himself, find out that Warerare's Streetpass Plaza is a sausage fest, and learn that Casper is envious of both of them for these things.
