    " Nearly 800 comments.  For comparison's sake, IGN's article on the 3DS event in NYC has less than 300. The shear volume of enthusiasm in these comments can only be attributed to a frothing demand for coverage of Nintendo's download platforms that is currently not being met in the online gaming press. UNTIL NOW. Well played, Jeff. "

    The only REAL way to listen to this is to put on the Wii Shop Channel music and have an alcoholic beverage in hand. Come on Jeff, meet me half way on this and at least put the awesome music in the background.......it's vital to the experience :)

    This is better than when it sometimes felt shoehorned into the bombcast.

    I really don't care about the downloads, I don't own a Wii or a DSi, but for some strange reason I do care about this podcast... Only a little bit though.

    I can't wait for guests to appear. Two-man podcasts will remind me of those days of arrow pointing down podcasts. It'll be awesome if you can sneak back in the drink taste segment here lol

    I'm having very confused feelings about this podcast. 
     
    On one hand, Jeff is a funny motherfucker 
     
    On the other hand, it is kind of sad listening to him talk to himself 
     
    On the other hand, the sadness loops back into Jeff's comedic genius. 
     
    I laughed, I cried, I'm sold.  
     
    EDIT : This is really some Andy Kaufman level shit.

    To a large extent, what really made the Nintendo Releases readings so funny was the reaction with the other three bombsquad members. Jeff is funny by himself, but it's not quite the same without Ryan's sarcastic gasps of surprise, Brad's groaning, and the occasionally catty remark from Vinny.
     
    I didn't like the section of the podcast because it was informative; I liked it because it was funny.
     
    But I do like how Jeff went the whole nine yards to stick it to the whiners. Good work, Jeff, good work.
