    Ive been listening to NCS for a while as well as other Nintendo podcasts. That being said, NCS is definitely my favorite podcast for getting Nintendo news. Patrick and Mark’s Nintendo knowledge is amazing and keeps me up to date on the world of Nintendo.

    Ignorant lefties. Stick to games. You don’t need to make political comments on a gaming podcast.

  • Exactly the Nintendo Podcast I was looking for

    I think the format of the show is brilliant, the interstitial music and sections like 4’33”.

    The opinion of the hosts are refreshing, other podcasters like at IGN all start to sound the same. While these hosts come from a different point of view and bring a fresh and humorous perspective.
