Just a cute and super-short episode this time, mostly so JC and Eric could wish you all happy holidays. Please enjoy this story produced by SungWon Cho!

Fran and Christian are joined by noted JRPG fan, Kotaku's Jason Schreier, to discuss the Suikoden franchise -- notably the first two games in the series, the latter of which is a true classic and recently came to the PlayStation Vita in North America!

We have more memories and obscure games to talk about from the Nintendo DS! Christian and Fran also recount their Las Vegas trip, where they checked out the Game Awards and the PlayStation Experience event.

We celebrated the Nintendo DS's 10th anniversary by remembering obscure games the system enjoyed -- 45 minutes of this is pretty much just a stream of us naming oft-forgotten games. We also talked about Etrian Mystery Dungeon and why we love Shiren!

We get into a serious discussion about homebrew coming to the 3DS and its implications in this episode. Before going into our piracy fears, though, we talked about the new Etrian Odyssey games, Persona Q, and donuts.

Christian and Fran sat out this episode, but we brought in special guest Heidi Kemps from Gaming.moe to talk to us about Amiibos, Rodea: The Sky Soldier, Sega 3D Classics, Tales of Hearts R, and her work covering obscure games at her awesome site.

After we go through the latest Nintendo Direct's news -- Majora's Mask 3D, Code Name STEAM, Amiibos, and Atelier Rorona -- Christian and Fran share their impressions of Freedom Wars. We also discuss last week's Nintendo investors meeting.

After the group shares their impressions on Fantasy Life, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Pokemon Art Academy, and the new Shantae, Eric tries to coax some spooky stories out of the gang for Halloween.

Fran, Christian, and special guest Anne Lee of Chic Pixel go deep into the Danganronpa franchise for a full-on spoilercast, combing through the events of the first two games and also discussing Another Episode.

The full group returns to share our initial thoughts and impressions of the New 3DS now that import units are coming in. We also talk about the eShop's march toward modernity, the PlayStation TV's launch, Pokemon demos, and recent games JC has played (Pix the Cat and Vib-Ribbon).
