The Famicast is quite possibly the best podcast hosted by two Americans and a Brit that discusses what it's like to be a Nintendo fan in Japan.
Pretty great show, one of my favorites. Plus, a KILLER theme song.
A great show for anyone interested in Nintendo and/or Japan. Give it a listen — you won’t be sorry!
Great podcast, informative, funny and a joy to listen to while ‘working’. It’s like having a bunch of friends round talking all things gaming and Nintendo! Really enjoy the insights to Japanese culture and gaming. Thanks guys and keep up the good work! James Allen, Bath, UK.
An outsider's look at Japanese culture and living, with a focus on Nintendo gaming, from European and North American podcasters. They have good dynamic humor among them and a nice mix of personalities. They do a wonderful job of answering listener questions and offering their observations of Japanese media, language, business, customs, etc., from a Western perspective, but also give glimpses into their own cultures. Thanks guys for a unique, enjoyable Nintendo podcast!
