Since this podcast was recorded before the last Nintendo Direct, we can say our Operations Director sort of "predicted" the new Kawashima game on 3DS. Way to go Smilie !

You guys mention Pang a lot! Is it really that good?

Love the idea of Swapnote-Flipnote crossover. Bring it on Smilie

I really wish Nibris was still around. Sadness looked to be the MOST profound horror game ever...even freakier than Dead Space in my opinion...I still remember the awesomely freaky monster design & what the story was supposed to be.

Truely an epic endeavor...I just wish it would've succeeded.

It is not wise to speak on subjects you do not know all facts about, nor is it smart to judge a game based on looks alone. PSN: Nintendo_Gamer 3DS: 4296-3029-7422

@Adam - I've used Send/Recieve when I've had unread messages. The problem you had has never occurred to me. Perhaps it was just a one-off?

Ahh - Nibris. Some of those guys behind Double-Bloob are ex-Nibris. They demoed this game along with another DS title - "Raid over the River" which I believe our very own Adam, actually saw in the flesh. No idea why they didn't release it.

As for Sadness, I fell in love with the concept of a black and white horror when it was announced alongside the as-yet, unreleased Wii. I think ultimately, those guys didn't understand the concept of deadlines !! Shame.

There are 10 types of people in the world: Those that understand binary and those that don't ..

Well hopefully Nintendo bought the rights to that concept (I think I remember hearing they did...) & we'll see that Gem on the U hopefully!!
