Nintendorks Radio Episode 58

I should really stop being a shill for this other podcast, but I know that some of you out there would be sad if you go without hearing my sexy voice for too long. As discussed yesterday, I will be out of town all week because I’m going to California for a big-ass expo full of thousands of nerds. The collective nerditude that will be focused in the L.A. Convention Center for 72 hours next week may in fact create a black hole. With, that said, though, this week on Nintendorks Radio, we talk about going to this crazy event of craziness.

Leavin’ on a Jet Plane

I may have accidentally got involved with some bad people. These bad people have accidentally helped me get into the Electronic Entertainment Expo or E3. Basically, it’s the biggest video game conference in the land.

E3 Expo is the world’s premiere trade show for computer and video games and related products. The show is owned by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA), the U.S. association dedicated to serving the business and public affairs needs of the companies, publishing interactive games for video game consoles, handheld devices, personal computers, and the Internet. For more information, please visit www.E3Expo.com or www.theESA.com.

As a result, and because this week I have been doing work to prepare for that whole shindig, we will not be having a show this week. On Monday I will be flying out to the crazy land of Los Angeles. Not only will I be attending this conference, but I will also attempt to re-enact my favorite scenes from Angels in the Outfield.

So many apologies for only having one show in the span of a month and a half, but when things come up there is but little we can do except ride the wave. After this week, however, my summer is essentially free of all obstruction. At that point we will resume proper-like.

Nintendorks Radio Episode 57

I am again a traitorous jerk and speak my words about video games with another site. Oh how we discuss those video games. Here, there, and everywhere we are talking about those video games. Silly us.

Why Does My nook Do This?


More and more frequently I have been noticing a trend with the ebooks that I purchase/download. My nook seems to have trouble figuring out how many pages a particular book actually has. I am curious as to whether this is a nook thing or a general ebook reader thing. My thoughts would lean towards the former.

At the MPS 6/4/10


It’s been several weeks (three whole weeks, in fact) since Episode 100 graced the internet with a grace and composure the likes of which no mortal man has ever seen before. Now, we are gearing up for 101 and hoping to get back to the regular shenanigans of yesteryear. This week, we have a few movies to choose from.
