Oh happy day!!!

Couple things:

Pronunciation. I always say Go mon. Mystical Ninja works too. I know you guys briefly touched on that in your almost discussion a few weeks ago, but it bears repeating since I don't think I'll ever say it correctly. Darn moon language.

If you die on the game over screen you'll notice dancing nearly-naked devil men. Why is that ALWAYS funny?

I always assume Goemon's using some sort of ancient Japanese opium pipe to beat people. Am I the only one who makes such an assumptio1?

The Super Nintendo Goemon 3 & 4 need translations. Part 2 is pretty playable without a translation, but 3 & 4 NEED a translation. Especially the third one since its trying to be like Zelda. Levels in the fourth one are playable, but at a certain point you need to read stuff and I can't read moon language.

Goemon's Great Adventure on N64 is probably the best. Goemon 2 has a lot of awesomeness on the super nintendo, but its all in Japanese whereas the N64 one got an English release.

What do you think of the names Kid Ying and Dr Yang from the english translation of the first super nintendo Goemon, "legend of the mystical ninja."

Which one of Dr. Yang's (aka Ebisumaru aka player twos blue guy) weapons are the best? Ribbons? Fans? Rings? The butt bounce? He probably has some more that I'm forgetting.

Did you know, Goemon was a historical figure?

Out of the four playable characters, Goemon, Dr Yang, Yae or Sasuke, which is your favorite?


Last Goemon question:

Any of you guys play the japan-only goemons? He is a very prolific guy, wikipedia has a list of all the games in the series. The little guy gets around, don't he?

I've probably played about six of them. The four snes ones and two on 64.

I never apologize for a wall of questions, but accept this real life picture of Goemon.



Also this kitty.

Oh whoops, thought this was the ask questions post not the go listen to the show post.

There's also a band called Glay :)

hoorah, i barley ever know the crazy amounts of stuff you guys know about old games. but it sure is fun to hear you guys talk about it.


Kinda like the E3: N08 podtoid. 90% funny reggie jokes. But I don't care. I love listening to all you editors ramble.

The haiku I wrote was referencing the gourmet submarine level from Mystical Ninja: Starring Goemon. It's the only game in the series that I've had the chance to play besides Mr. Goemon, so I just went with that I knew.

After listening to the podcast though, I'll be doing a playthrough of a few of the SNES Goemon games whenI get the chance.

Keep up the good work guys! Stella, you did awesome, I'll see you tomorrow at Comicon~<3

Stella sounds like the cutest thing ever! Still listening to the show, but I wanted to say that now because I'm pretty much in love with her voice at now.

Holy crap I still am not used to the new Retroforce schedule. THough it does allow the podcast to drop in as a nice little surprise in my iTunes though.

Chad, you're voice makes me happy not annoyed. . . other Chad voice however not-so-happy

I kinda lurve Stella Wong.

Chad: If you buy that thing you mentioned that I obviously don't have, you too can experience the joy of Rick Rolling someone with your DS. You can also play sweaty rubdown games to your heart's content. :)

Stella Wong has brought cuteness like never before.

I'm glad you guys enjoyed the show a lot! It was really a huge honor for me. :3 reading the comments made me feel relieved because I was pretty nervous. Hence the laughing a lot. XD;;
