Famicom Dojo

[SeanOrange]

Podcast originally scheduled for 2/24 is live!  This one is all about babies and children in video games, their portrayals, and if there's a way they can be included without exploiting an emotional response or driving you completely crazy"

Thanks again to everyone for the well-wishes AND your patience.  We'll be running our next few episodes a bit closer together until we get back on track.

Also, be sure to listen until the end for some special announcements on the future of Famicom Dojo videos!

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to attend MGC since 2009 because it always manages to fall on the same weekends as something else -- paradoxically something else farther away.  In 2010 it was the same weekend as the first PAX East.  In 2011, it was MUCH earlier than usual (if I remember correctly), and fell on the same weekend I was taking a belated honeymoon abroad.

This year?  I thought I was free, but we won't be in the area yet again, although this time it's for something far less glamorous.

SOME DAY I will go again!  I thought this year would be the year, but alas it does not appear to be the case.

[UPDATE] Whoops, spoke too soon.  The thing I'm thinking of is the week AFTER, so... I might be free!

Hope to see you there. We are going to have systems that have never been shown before like the X68000 and a few others.

NOTE: I posted this same message in the off-topic Famicom Dojo thread.  I should have posted it here first.  Sorry about that.

Sorry to bump an old topic, but I don't think it deserved a new one.

Sean and I are going to be doing a live event in Madison Wisconsin on August 25th.  I am guessing most of you are not in that area, but I'd love to meet some of you guys if you are.

Here is the event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/493497877361968/

Also we have some new videos up on our new youtube channel.  And one on our old channel:

Thank you for all your support over the years.

Great to hear you are coming back to the states, Vinnk! I can't make this event due to distance but I hope one day you both can make it to MGC. Sean hung out with us during this year's show but we would love it if the duo could return.

[Vinnk]

Sadly, I am only in the states for 2 weeks.  I would love some day to go to MGC again (I was at the first or second one).

Hope you didn't get there by shipping yourself in a box with some cookies and a GameBoy!

If, in the coming years, you are ever able to join up with Sean again at an MGC let us know. I am sure we can set something up for you guys.

I love this show so far!

Of course not, thats crazy talk.  You wouldn't be able to see the gameboy in the dark.  I would need a Gameboy Lite.

I love this show so far!

Thanks!  We love making it. 

We have a new episode coming this week.  It's our first long one in a wile (about 15 minutes).  It's one we've been working on and tweaking for nearly a year but we finally got it just right.

Nice videos! Be sure to include JewWario in the future too. He's a great actor!

We love him so much.  But he's so busy with this own videos that we can only get him from time to time.
