STREAMWARE? CAFEWARE? WHAT IS IT!?!?
Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves, but the future of digital delivery on Nintendo devices is heating up with the first confirmed launch game for 3DSWare and news of an entirely new Nintendo console. What sort of digital downloads can you play on a platform that has a screen built into its controller? Good ones, no doubt. Oh, and the latest DSiWare and WiiWare releases are totally here, too.
   
Your conductor, as always, is Jeff Gerstmann! He smells like an airport!


Ways to listen: 

iTunes: HERE (be sure to subscribe, we normally don't post here every time there's a new installment!) 
RSS: HERE (another wonderful way to subscribe!)
MP3: HERE (this link is for buffoons only, so go bananas!)

And remember: Airports are not amusing!

Actually if you check this offsite link belonging to Jeff, he's been doing it on a consistent basis every week. For some reason the last two weeks' editions didn't turn up here, though.

#11 Posted by Video_Game_King (29358 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

I wish I knew where to download the MP3s directly, because this is my only way of getting aboard the Nintendownloadable Xpress.

#12 Edited by MeatSim (9315 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

With all these new Nintendo platforms the train shows no signs of slowing down.

Nothing stops the NintenDownloads Xpress?
#24 Posted by Davin (233 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

I'm always on board with the Express!

#25 Posted by ChrisInCali (146 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

YES!

#26 Posted by Jedted (1919 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago


This podcast would be a lot funnier with a second person, someone to read the game description and someone to make stupid comments about the game.  The one they did at Pax East was hilarious, with just Jeff it's kinda boring.

NOTHING STOPS THE NINTENDOWNLOADS XPRESS

#28 Posted by Thejugglingbum (126 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

#30 Edited by Zamir (488 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

  right on, on taking Steam down a peg

#31 Posted by l3reak (119 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

Fantastic! I've been checking your blog all night waiting for this. I also bought a 3DS today just for the Mega Man eShop game!

#32 Posted by Rudeboy217 (1726 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

CHOO CHOO!

#33 Posted by Soapy86 (2429 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

Mr. Gerstmann, only you could make me listen to a podcast dealing with a subject I wouldn't normally give a shit about, and be thoroughly entertained by it throughout!

#34 Posted by lacke (346 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

The RSS feed only keeps the latest 10 podcasts which is a bummer.

#35 Posted by TheHT (8164 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

MP3 LINKZ FOR LIFEZ

#36 Posted by RobertOrri (964 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

That Steam thing sounds like it only sells perverted adult games. I prefer Nintendo for its family-oriented and wholesome entertainment offerings. Plus they label the games in case they contain references to drugs or swearing (which is crucial to my enjoyment).

#37 Edited by Zabant (1213 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

I cant even tell if the "Pretentious European" impression jeff does on in this NDX is in itself a joke as part of the tech illiterate, ignorant  train conductor persona he has going on when he does the NDX or if its just him making fun of Europe for no real reason other than they are not americans.

#38 Posted by Rockanomics (1150 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

FOLLOWERS REPENT!!! Our saviour/conductor has a-come-a at last!


Okay so I'm drunk, but what better way to receive the light of the NDX then with a bunch of empty High-Life bottles and Nyan Cat just GOING ON AND ON forEVER in the background?
#39 Posted by Mars_Cleric (1563 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago


Awesome, was doing maths assignment but guess what I'm doing now...

and after that I'll listen to the NDX

#40 Posted by ArmedBear (172 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

The NDX is the only true high speed rail in America.

#41 Posted by Cirdain (2659 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

[Really dumb train related comment]

#42 Posted by ApolloBob (566 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

 yes and my heart was going like mad and yes I said NintenDownload I will X-press.

#43 Posted by ajamafalous (10617 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

Never has the material been so ripe for the picking for the NDX.

#44 Posted by jennoa (75 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

Always time for a ride on the train!

#45 Posted by Banggoo (97 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

 It's been a long road. Getting from there to here.

#46 Posted by Tacobot (73 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

Another great one. thank you Jeff.

#47 Posted by Undeadpool (4515 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

I figured the Conductor being out of town meant the train would be delayed. How could I forget the unstoppable nature of the train?!

#49 Posted by McGhee (5353 posts) - 2 years, 29 days ago

I got inspired and spent an hour in Photoshop! A gift for Jeff the Conductor and all who travel on the NintenDownload X-press.
