The Famicast 165 - SPILL OVER SPECIAL

Fri, 17 Jan 2020 08:00:00 GMT

It's the turn of the decade and we lived. Just to bring you some more gaming goodness out of Japan! In the first episode of 2020, JC, Danny and Ty bring the HEAT, baby! For New Business, the guys go over the games they played over the break - Valfaris, Demon's Tilt, Brain Training, SolSeraph, Robotron 64, Dragon Quest XI, Resident Evil 2 (remake) and more! After a brief Now Playing, the guys tackle the news. With a little bit of quick bites out of the way, the crew goes in deep on the new Nintendo Switch Online trial game coming to NSO members for FREE in Japan and touch on some more details of Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Japan.

After JC takes a quick dive through the trash (finding some actual good games for a real bargain!), there was some unfinished business with The Fammies 2019. The guys add on two new categories and debate which games make the cut. The show finishes off with some awesome feedback from you. Keep commenting and sending us your questions/comments.

The Famicast 161 - TERRY'S HAUNTED MANSION

Fri, 08 Nov 2019 08:00:00 GMT

Danny, JC and the guys all get together to talk about the latest and greatest. The show kicks off with some extensive impressions of Luigi's Mansion 3, as Danny and JC talk about their experience with the series as a whole and what they think about the latest entry. Danny bounces a little bit early, but immediately afterward, the JC and Ty cover the latest Smash Bros. Direct featuring Terry! We've included this in the audio version of the show, but it honestly works out better in video form. If you want to hear the audio version, we stuck it at the end of the episode. Please understand.

After a little bit more New Business, the guys get into some of the latest news and then eventually make it to some feedback from you. Just an additional note here (and a little bit of inside baseball), too, this is the first episode that was edited using some new software to create an enhanced version of the podcast as an MP3. From here on out, there will no longer be an M4A file, just the MP3. Again, please understand.

In this episode, the guys talk about Indivisible, dentistry, Apple Arcade games (coming soon to Switch), Gunman Clive HD and more before moving on to Now Playing. After that interlude, the guys tackle the most gripping news of the day - Nintendo Story Tokyo, Luigi (singular) Mansion 3's putrid Famitsu score, Suda51's upcoming game, a dash of GGPO, and even a mini "Life in Japan" to whet your whistle or whatever.

We hope everyone out there has an awesome and safe Halloween! Be sure not to upset the WA!

The Famicast 111 - GLOVES OFF

Tue, 10 Oct 2017 14:59:00 GMT

The Famicast is back after a slight delay (blame Danny) to give you more podcasting goodness! James is enjoying Steamworld Dig 2, Ty is playing his usual mix of old/hard games, those being Maldita Castilla EX, The Swapper and of course - Cuphead. Sairus's new business is non-existent, as is Danny's - only one of them has a valid excuse (spoiler: it's not Danny).

We’re back with another brand new and Unseen episode of the Famicast! Your usual hosts are joined this week by very special guest Liam Robertson from Unseen64, Did You Know Gaming and Nintendolife (check out his YouTube here)!

In New Business, Danny goes full Karen (Darren?) with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Ty dips into some nostalgia with the Disney Afternoon collection, Liam talks about Puyo Puyo Tetris and James and Sairus both continue with their Zelda quests (Not that Zelda.).

There’s news for both the Famicast itself and Nintendo proper as we talk about the upcoming launch of the Famicast’s Patreon, plus our takes on the recent announcement of the New 2DS XL and Mario Kart 8’s spectacular launch.

In a special segment everyone on the show talks about what games they’d like to see make a comeback on the Switch. We’d love to know our listeners opinions too, so be sure to let us know!

A special thanks to Perry Burkum who produced the Famicast’s brand new theme song, which makes its debut in this episode!
