I think that Evan's performance in this podcast was perhaps the greatest single discourse by a podcaster in the history of podcasts. In fact, I think I am going to start a petition to make it a federal crime for Evan to miss any podcasts in the future.

But I thought this was just a forgone conclusion and that saying it cheapens everything.

I realize people have lives. I podcast as well. Josh was awesome, and hopefully some miracle will allow him to rejoin it sooner than next summer- or maybe a second Dojo-cast with a more achievable recording schedule will pop up.

The Noah-Andy-Evan crew always seems to have the best chemistry, but then again, they've done the most together. I'd love to see Matthew or Josh, or Aaron (or Abe, if he's still around), rotate in, either as a fill-in or a 4th panelist. And if you feel you have more voices than you can squeeze into a single show, maybe consider a spinoff.

I don't have any problem if the Nintendojo staff wants a four-some in Dojo-Show-Go (LOL).

My earlier comment, BTW, was a response to a comment on the podcast that Evan wanted his ego stroked more.

Hbomb will be glad to know that we plan on trying for foursomes more often going forward. In fact, we would have had four for episode 50 but technical difficulties cut us back down to 3.

[Espeon200]

stupid technical difficulties... I blame Noah and Pamela.

Oh, it's the Wireless Abilities that they are afraid will disrupt or intercept communications from the Control Tower. In the DSi, you can turn the wireless feature off. Honestly though, it's perfectly safe. Unless you have a high powered Multi-Band Transmitter attached to your DSi or PSP.. it's not going to do anything to jam the Control Tower or Airplane communications.

The Nintendo Virtual Console needs a redesign for the way it is organized. Personally, I wouldn't mind if they bunched the WiiWare and Virtual Console sections into one and just called stuff "N64 Classics," "NES Classics," and so forth.
