The NintenDownload X-press! Returns...

Posted by Jeff (3082 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

They said it couldn't be done. No, seriously, they tried to stop me from recording this. Internal comments have ranged from "what?" to "shouldn't you be using your time to do something that isn't completely useless?" But this week I'm joined by a trio of special guests, like Dave Snider, Vinny Caravella, and Brad Shoemaker, all of whom were more than happy to join me for a thrilling ride on the rails of the NintenDownload X-press!

If you want to subscribe to this, the best and greatest podcast I've ever been a part of, you should use THIS LINK to the RSS feed. iTunes rejected it. So... it's not available there. You'll have to subscribe by adding this link to your RSS reader or "podcatcher." You can do that in iTunes by entering the above link on the "Advanced >> Subscribe to Podcast" menu! Easy!

If you'd rather not commit to subscribing to something so amazing, you can right click on THIS LINK to download this week's show as an mp3 file.

If you're confused by all of this, perhaps you should check out what I wrote last week, when the world's greatest podcast about Nintendo's weekly downloads debuted.

Oh, also this week's show sounds kind of screwed up. I think Ryan sabotaged the audio equipment. Sorry.

#6 Edited by SuperWristBands (2029 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

So excited!
 
Edit: Oh LMAO! I just got around to listening to it and I love that Jeff totally tricked them into it. I wasn't expecting them to leave though! My heart goes out to you Jeff. Hope you keep up the great work!

#9 Posted by Turambar (5728 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

It even comes out before the bombcast.  How can it not be superior.

#18 Posted by FormulaDeuce (201 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

They said it couldn't get better...   IT JUST DID!

#19 Posted by Dany (7877 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Who will prevail? Ryan or Jeff?

#20 Posted by OldManLight (621 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

i vote you keep doing this until it gets added back into the regular podcast.  You guys reading the downloads was sort of giant bomb's thing and i don't think anyone minded laughing at the banter during this segment.  Just my opinion.

#21 Posted by Warihay (457 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Haha this is awesome.

#22 Posted by plainoldsam (18 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

DAVE AND VINNY! I AM ON BOARD.

#25 Posted by Etaber (153 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Why does Ryan Davis hate freedom?

#26 Edited by DougQuaid (1229 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

iTunes rejected this? Those fuckers! 
 
Also, the intro continues to be sick as hell.

iTunes is missing out on some of the greatest audio I have ever heard.

#39 Posted by DizzyMedal (358 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Thanks Jeff. Don't let them stop you.

#40 Posted by Zealousadonis (132 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

I don't know if this should be added back to the bombcast, this thing on it's own has been pretty amazing.

#41 Posted by Animasta (12779 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

oh man, I dunno if this intro is actually scripted or not, but it's still amazing.

#42 Posted by NapTimeSleeper (302 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

This is awesome.

#44 Edited by ezdude (354 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

As I read that whole article I could feel the enthusiasm that went into writing every single word. This should be awesome, even though it might have been almost sabotaged. 
 
Even iTunes conspired against it

#45 Posted by Legend (2495 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago
