ANSWERED podcast questions

[MSU_CokeBoi]

Greetings podcast crew from Little Rock, AR!
I'm a long time listener, first time questium writer!

First of all, great show, I love it, and keep up the good work!

I recently got a new car (Silver Ford Edge) and was thinking about what to name it. My last car was a Volvo named Swede (Swee-dee) , since it was Swedish . I was wanting to name it something related to two of my favorite companies, coca cola or nintendo. I also want to put this name on my license plate. So there are certain criteria it has to meet. Obviously, it has to be clean, so the word 'Coke' is probably out since people won't think of the kind of Coke im referring to. And Secondly, it needs to be 7 characters or less.

So my questium for you guys, what suggestions do you have as far car names go? Right now im leaning towards 'Ninty' Its discrete, so only fanboys would get it, and im fine with that. What do you think?

PS I also have a broken Wii-mote hanging in my rear-view mirror. The thin strap Nintendo initially provided broke and it flew right into the wall above my TV.

[Striker Jacen]

Hi Podcast crew!

This question is for the ladies*...

*If there are no ladies present, please have RMC answer in a seductive voice.

On the eve of Valentine's Day weekend, I have to ask: what would be the most unromantic worst gesture of love you can think of? Have you ever had a Valentine's Day that fell flat because of someone who totally missed the mark?

Hope that everyone is doing great, and thanks for putting out a great podcast, listening to it makes the hour drive to work tolerable.

[FollowMeAround]

Hi, podcast crew.

I'd like to know which game console or portable you think was, physically, the best designed. I know that everyone rags on the GameCube, but ever since it was first unveiled, I loved the way it looked and it's still my favorite looking system. I also love the look of the original Game Boy more than any other handheld and think that the Jaguar is the ugliest, by far.

That's all, guys. Hope to see you at PAX East, if you're attending.

[The Albino Rhyno]

Hey crew The Albino Rhyno is back again with some quest-YUMS.

1. What is the best wrestling match you have seen live in person?
Id have to say that seeing Triple H vs John Cena at Wrestlemania 22 was mine. First it was a great match, even though John Cena was in it. Second I have never seen a crowd like that during the match. Half the crowd chanting "lets go Cena" the other half (including my friend and I) yelling in response "F**K you Cena". It was awesome.

2. Whats the funniest moment you have witnessed??
During my most recent venture to the east coast I was at the national zoo in DC. There is a rope that can be used by the Orangutan to move to another enclosure. Well as it was maneuvering to the outdoor enclosure, some brilliant man decided it would be smart to walk underneath it and look up.............as I witness the turd free fall my laughter had begun. To make matters worse after impact when he was bent over in disgust he received a shower to the back of the head. Was laughing so hard that I threw up in a nearby bathroom. It was amazing.

Keep up the awesome work on the podcast and site.

Albino Rhyno out

[Alvin_Rod]

Well, hello there podcast crew!
Alvin_Rod here, to ask some questions for the kewlest podcast around!

1. What game would you take a bullet for? RawMeat just mentioned Fragile was the best game he had ever played, so, I would assume he would dodge a bullet for it anyday. Personally, I would take a bullet for Banjo Kazooie, everyday, 8 days a week!

2. If you could go back in time, for only 1 minute, and go to your own self, or someone else, what would you say to them? What would you say to yourself? What would you do to yourself?

3. April Fools day just passed us, so, what's the best April Fools prank you've done, or witnessed? If there aren't any, just pick a prank in general.

That it is! A bunch of impromptu questions written in the span of 5 mins!

[Cerberiga]

Hello to the Gonintendo podcast!

Just some quick ones:

What is, "the bear, it's me" from?

With the new Zelda announcement coming up, I was just thinkin'. Twilight Princess probably had some of the strangest dungeon items ever, but I can't argue that they weren't... different. With MotionPlus, do you want even more original and strange items, or a return to slightly more classic items? What do you think they will have?

You guys are all too cool to be not cool,

Cerberiga

[PresTron2000]

Well hey there PodCats! PresTron2000 here wishing to inquire several facts of you.

1. What web browsers do you find yourselves using the most? I'm a Google Chrome man (*side note: if anyone (most likely Nicky Hill) starts singing "Google Chrome man!" to the tune of Soul Man, I win this session of questioms*), but often find myself using Firefox as well.

2. RMC, in the early days of NintendoNow, what made you want to start a Nintendo news blog and what kept you going? I'm sure there were some days where you just didn't feel the motivation to continue writing, and/or breathing.

3. Who was the coolest teacher you guys ever had during high school or earlier? What in particular made them so cool?

Well, parting is such a sweet sorry. Luckily, because this is the internet and I don't actually know any of you, we don't have to deal with it. See you guys next time!

Hola, ok q-time!

Nintendo says "hey you! Listen up! we've got this Zelda major mo.. Jay Kay jay kay;)

now then, let us go around this here table and each person name, and if necessary, describe, one single decision Nintendo has made that has really ticked u ouff!

from anything petty to (in your opinion) Crucial.

Everyone should name something, even strangers>;)

[bedtime]

ahhhh YES-SAH! in before the lock, yet again.

anyways, i've been ITCHING to ask you guys this question for WEEKS: can you guys talk about dsi-ware a bit? i'm putting off picking up a dsi because i have literally NO idea about any of the dsi-ware games and if theres nothing really exciting or fun then i dont see a reason to get one until they just start totally phasing out regular ds games. 80% of why i want a wii is wii-ware/VC, so i'm hoping the dsi stuff is good too.

thanks!

[phisherjosh]

hello everyone! I just wanted to let you know that my addiction to gonintendo.com far exceeds any addiction I had to any video game ever, some studies and expert analystst put it as high as 3x as much the addiction level. I was just wondering if you had any thoughts on that? P.S. I'm also writing my senator

[Q_Mulative]

HEEEEEY YOU GUYYYYYYS...

...and girls.

...and cats/dogs.

...and everything and everyone except Lube.

...

...and especially Lube.

1st Questium: Have any of you ever played any Tabletop games, such as Dungeons and Dragons, Amazing Engine, Shadowrun, Burning Wheel, &c.? And if so, what are your stories of them? Kind of tangential, but when I was buying RPG dice for the first time, I was out with a friend, and the store guy gave me a discount. As we were leaving the store, my friend goes, "I didn't get a discount when I bought dice from him." So I was all, "Maybe I have a higher Charisma than you," and he went, "You don't have a higher Charisma than me, you just rolled better!"

Semi-Final Questionable: Have you ever had a podcast crewmember on over Skype or other such internetted protocols?

FINAL QUESTATION: I hear things are getting a lot busier for RMC as the revamping and upgrading to the site's going on. I'm just wondering if the voice-input side-panel is something that's still on the list.

Thanks as always for a great site and a great podcast.

Q. Mulative

[VoodooThursday]

Awww crumbs, it's VoodooThursday and his inane questiums again!

1. What was your favourite outdoor game/activity growing up? Mine has to be the classic 30-kid, village-wide game of Manhunt, it made me feel just like a pint-sized Solid Snake! Sans the smoking and terrorist takedowns of course.

2. Where's the creepiest place you've ever been? For me the creepiest (and stinkiest)
place I remember are the shady-boughs of the local swamp in one of my old neighboorhoods, semi-submerged WWII house and all.

3. If you could wash the hair of any american president, past or present, who would it be?

That's all from me, thanks for raving about the Mass Effect series in previous podcasts, as I'm now in mad sweaty nerd-love with it! VEE-TEE OUT.

[Combo Meal]

Yo, humans. The Combo Meal here, sharing my first time with you.

My first time sending you questions, that is.

1: In a game where you can name your characters, i.e. most RPG's and the like, has any given name ever caused an in-game conversation to become unexpectedly funny? For example, when I first played Twilight Princess, I, for some reason, named Link "Me" and Epona "Myself". Many lulz took place when I read the following line from Ilia: "Me! I washed Myself for you."

2: In a fight between a shark and an octopus, who would win?

That be's all. Thanks for reading. Or not.

[FollowMeAround]

Hey fartknockers,

Just one small but deeply personal question for everyone this time. Who were some of your childhood celebrity crushes?

[jose]

hola.

i like trivia, you like trivia, they like trivia. Let us go 'round and share some video game trivia and if you can't think of anything game-related, well then whatev's, show's you just don't like trivia and i was wrong.

[pokkle]

Hello Kevin,

While looking on the internet during my lunch break, I have gotten really confused about why some games that look werid never come to amercian shores cause it might be strange but yet warioware can be sometimes very werid sometimes and yet it sells well.


It would be most benefical, hopefully the reginator is willing to bring those games over. I know Wii fit is it, but can not imports be the as popular of animal crossing? Anyway, I found a mushroom after I left the Mayor's house. It was very werid tasting.
Also do you know about strange dreams? I have been having some very interesting dreams that i slept through my Coming of Age Ceremony! Isn't that horrible?
I have been wondering if people have werid dreams in RPGS


Have a great day!
now back to community service...

~Pokkle

PS: Mappo says Hi.

[karkashan]

Just wondering, but have any of you guys played with Bass in Megaman 10 yet? (I personally found him freaking awesome)

[Swedish_Otaku]

Hi podcast crew, Murdoc from Sweden here. Got two questions for you.

1 - Are you all satisfied with your real names, if not, what would you rather be named?

2 - What is that thing you play at the end of the podcast sometimes RMC?!

Thank you all for a great podcast and site. I'll soon be making my podcast favorite #4 so stay tuned.

[Cerberiga]

Hey Gonintendo Podcast crew!

One of the best things to happen to the podcast was the return of Deux. I can't believe it! It's just like old times! They're back! But you know, I always thought that his pesky career was getting in the way. How was he able to return, and could it happen to any of the other ex-podcast regulars?

Speaking of Deux... in a different time, I asked a Deux-less crew what, "did ya 89??" stem from. You refused to answer citing concerns of "good taste", but you did link it to "Deux's checkered past" (direct quote). If you're there, would you care to explain? Don't let the others hold you back.

You know, Nicky Hill's been quizzing you on music for almost four years. Ever thought of switching it up so Nicky get's a chance to play?

Finally, I can't thank you all enough for your nearly FIVE years of dedication but just because I can't, doesn't mean I won't. Thanks again,

Cerberiga

P.S. Star Light Zone is also one of my favorites.

[VoodooThursday]

What praytell, is up podcasters? A few quest-ee-yums perhaps to whet my inqusitive whistle?

1. Have you ever gone back to watch an old trailer for a game, even for one that has long since been released? The one I keep going back to is more of a trailer OF a trailer, you know the one, that awesome video from the conference hall when Nintendo revealed Twilight Princess?

The fans reaction, as well as Miyamoto's confession that he isn't Rink, but DOES know him just warms my cockles. Among other things.

2. Video game OST Remixes are beyond awesome, especially those that go beyong the typical rock or metal rendition of our favourite bleep-bloop tunes. Any reccomendations or favourites in that capacity? I loved the recent DKC2 Remix Project, and can't wait for Jay-Zelda: Beat's Awakening!

3. Which is more satisfying, peeling craft glue off your hands or itching a mosquito bite?

That's all from me crew. Keep 'IT' squarely within the realms of the physical, yo!

[Alvin_Rod]

Oh, hiya, Podcast Crew!
You guys are my favorite costumers!
Nice doggies!

1. Do any of you watch LOST? Do you guys know of anyone who watches LOST? If you're not watching it, which, I assume many of you are not, then, why the hell haven't you!? It's like, the best freakin' show ever!! (Apart from Roseanne). By the time you read this, the show is probably over, so, maybe you guys could watch all of the seasons on Netflix! Can any of you promise me that you WILL watch it, Seasons 1-6?

2. Now on to a more serious matter. Lately, I've been thinking about Nintendo's peripherals released since the Wii launched: the Balance Board not so much, but what about the Wii Wheel, Wii Zapper, Wii Speak, and the upcoming Vitality Sensor Do you think that Nintendo has failed on encouraging the use of these peripheral on their newer games? IMO, Wii Speak was a missed opportunity that could have been used in so many games.

3. Now, on to a sadder note. Out of 1,000 or so students who applied for a summer medical internship in the state of Arizona, I was one of the lucky few who was accepted. I will be living on the campus of the University of Arizona for 7 weeks, and will be working with doctors and such, and at the end of it, I'm getting paid $1,700 or so. This means that I will have 7 weeks without playing video games, looking at pornography, and, of course, watching or listening to the Gonintendo podcast crew. Questium is, have any of you gotten any internship?

Sorry for the long questions. I'm just taking advantage, before Cort locks it up again!
P.S. I don't want to seem like a super senior douche, but, I asked Kirby to draw an avatar for me in a February podcast...of last year. It's OK Kirby, don't punish yourself, I love my current avatar! Please don't tell StinkyB I'm using this picture!

[TheFuzzyNinja]

Hey guys, girls and nicky hill

How are y'all doin? Good I hope, I don't show my face around much often cause I'm pretty busy with stuff, but I keep up with all the happening at gonintendo constantly, it's been my hompage for years now.

But, it's been awhile since I submitted my first set of questions into this Nazi fortress, and it's now time for my second set of questions.

1. If you could share your body like (conjoined twins) with anyone, who would it be?

2. Is everything okay with Kirby? He seems to use uh, and um ALOT, like, I dunno, like his thoughts are constipated, I'm not trying to be mean or anything to you Kirby I swear, I lover you, but damn

Thank you for taking the time to read my questions, you all have a good one.

Ps. I used to think mom brain was Rmc's mother and nintenho was his girlfriend. Boy was I shocked when I found out the truth.
