A fine episode, though I didn't care for the interview. This is not because there was anything wrong with Nelson or how you handled it. I just don't like interviews in my podcasts. I would prefer a normal show. If you do want to do an interview, make it a special episode. (Note that this only applies to separate interviews. Guest hosts are fine).

As for Wolverine wearing a helmet in the cartoon, remember that the audience is kids. While he doesn't need a helmet, those young people watching do. Its a subtle lesson being taught: "if Wolverine wears a helmet despite his healing factor, maybe I should wear one when I ride my bike."

Really liked the CAGcast this week. Unlike lebkin I do like interviews in my CAGcast as long as they are good just like the one with Minor Nelson. I really think Minor Nelson had good chemistry with you guys and made the show very enjoyable. That sponsor at the beginning of the show was WEIRD.

.99 cent apps can be really good, I got Geodefence for .99 and that is definitely worth more than that. It is the most played app on my iPhone.

I didn't like the constant remarks against Wombat that nelson did, that was really screwed up, you go on a show and try to show off to Cheapy by putting down wombat?

Also, the beginning of the show is usually my favorite because you're talking about hilarious things most of the time that happen in your life, keep on doing that.

Other than nelson trying to be a hard-ass, i enjoyed it

Finally, others who understand that digital distribution will not be taking over anytime soon, if ever. You two seem to have a decent understanding of the retail and marketing aspects of video games. Wombat, we are definitely on the same wavelength on this matter. It almost seemed as if you were reading one of my posts on the matter verbatim. It's nice to hear a podcast where the people aren't just sounding off with their DD dommsaying from inside their sealed-off bubble.

Nelson wasn't bad

Cheapy ought to actually respond to things though. Like when my post was removed for a reason that has nothing to do with community guidelines. He got his shit taken care-of but, doesn't care about anyone but, himself. What a meathead.

Hey guys great show like always but there were a few things that bothered me.
1. Wombat says how he thinks that the poor sales of China Town Wars are due to piracy when the number 2 game sold in March was Pokemon Platinum, a DS game. This game I would assume would be just as easy to pirate. So I really don't understand how you could justify the poor sales to piracy.

2. What the hell was up with Nelson and Wombat. I sensed some hostility between the two. Whats going on with that? I don't know if you are messing around or you two don't like either. Just curious about that

I really like the show and the interview. Keep up the good work guys!

1. The audience attracted to GTA CTW seems like it is more likely to pirate games than the audience Pokemon is aimed at. Most of the people playing GTA are going to be people that know a lot more about the gaming industry as a whole. The pokemon audience on the other hand is about 80%(my estimate) children and their parents usually purchase a game for them and I am pretty sure most parents don't know how to pirate DS games. I have seen a lot of people with flash carts at Univeristies and I have never seen a kid with a flash cart in Elementary, Middle or High School.

2. I think they were messing around. Nelson did say he kept in touch with him more than with Cheapy so I think they were just messing around. On the other hand who doesn't like to atack Wombat ? He is Mr. Me Me Me! after all.

Talking

This is the first Cagcast since a long time that i have not had to regurgitate my lunch. I was, however, getting quite used to cheapy talking about his shit while having my lunch. http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/...ons/icon10.gif

i don't know why people get offended so easily and if that is the case you shouldn't be listening to the CAGcast in the first place. Good to know that Cheapy and Wombat understand that and don't stop because a couple of people get offended.
