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).

Get ready for a weird episode -- weird because it's just JC and Eric in this episode, and we go off on some odd tangets. We also talk about home menu themes, cover plates, Smash Bros. dickery, bagels, and microwave bacon.

We get to share our deeper Smash Bros. impressions now that its 3DS launch is imminent. We also discuss transparent 2DSes, Tokyo Game Show news, the PlayStation TV, and modern archaeology.

Smash Bros is starting to take over the TinyCast, as we talk here about the new demo (with a few spoilers). We also spend some time with the Pokemon demo, Treehouse radness, and Final Fantasy Theatrythm: Curtain Call.

Special interview with Voldi Way and Adam Tierney of WayForward Technologies

Nintendo's New 3DS models, Sony's PS Vita announcements, and NIS America's Danganronpa 2 release gave us more than enough to talk about this week! And just as Eric figured out his audio problems, Fran's mic crapped out on us. Please understand.

So much to talk about this week -- Smash Bros. leaks, Mario Kart 8 DLC, and Pokken Tournament! We also managed to set aside some time for tangents on PS1-era 3D fighting games before sharing impressions on Gunvolt and Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright. Uh, we recorded this before all the "new" 3DS megatons.

With handheld releases starting to pick up, the TinyCast crew gathers to talk about Mighty Gunvolt, Yokai Watch toys, Phantom Breaker, and Akiba's Trip.

The TinyCast crew comes back from its hiatus to talk about Etrian Odyssey 2's remake, Nintendo losing its main indie advocate, Shovel Knight's success, and PS Vita games we've played lately (Rogue Legacy and Disgaea 4).

The TinyCast crew chats about Smash Bros., cosplay Pikachu, Club Nintendo's Elite rewards, Japan's third-party direct, and Yokai Watch 2. We also share our impressions on recent releases like One Piece: Unlimited World Red and Squids Odyssey.

Though we set out to talk about Dragon Quest X 3DS and Mighty No. 9, we got sidetracked by Hatsune Miku, Denny's, and Imageepoch's latest facepalm.

Lots of love for Shovel Knight in this TinyCast, with some side convos about broccoli/Etrian Odyssey, handheld remakes, Magical Beat (PS Vita), weird Tetris games, and simultaneous Wii U/3DS development.

Join three dudes who weren't at E3 for E3 discussion! Smash Bros., Code Name STEAM, and all the things we totally accurately predicted.

We have 1,001 dramas for you this episode: Harvest drama, Hyperdimension drama, Tomodachi drama, mystery 3DS game drama, etc. Come and make up E3 announcements with us!

We celebrate Mega May with tons of Mega Man talk, looking at the series' boxarts, music, and portable games. There's also some chatter here about Yokai Watch, old handhelds, and ... J.J. & Jeff?

Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire, and Tomodachi Life, a game with no Greek letter attached as far as we know.

Ashley Davis joins us to talk about all things Kirby, including the new Triple Deluxe and her upcoming Dream Zine project. We also surprise ourselves by freaking out about Pokemon Art Academy!

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the "compact video game system", we talk about our favorite Game Boy releases, as well as the trauma we suffered because of the handheld. We also discuss Meiji-era Ace Attorney, Bust a Groove, and Mario Golf!

Come hear your bros discuss Smash. Listen to your Tomodachi ruminate about Life. Join your pals in talking about... Ping? (the super successful DS chat app, not the failed iTunes music social network)

Back at full strength, we spend a lot of time discussing Rusty's Real Deal Baseball, Yumi's Odd Odyssey, and other games we're playing. You wouldn't hear this discussion on any other podcast! It'd be weird for them to talk about the games we're playing.

Our latest TinyCast is a post-Game Developers Conference chat about Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Koji Igarashi leaving behind Konami and Castlevania, and how awesome the GBA was.

With the past week light on news, we spent this cute episode talking about Gunvolt, as well as recently announced games/dates for both 3DS and PS Vita. Toward the end, we had fun discussing X-Com, Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars, and childhood obsessions.

We eulogize Nintendo's WiFi Connection service -- speculating about its sudden death, discussing the difficulties of preservation, and lamenting the online features we'll miss. We also go on tangents about classic game ports and Children of Mana.

We spend some time here discussing Level's 5 eShop surprises and Nintendo's free-to-play experiments, but we also go in-depth on the uncertain future of Zero Escape, and why you need to play Danganronpa. If you love visual novels, don't miss this one!

The TinyCast crew catches up on indie eShop/PSN games, Sonic Boom and the state of Sega's flagship franchise, and Bravely Default (stick with us after we share "what we learned today"). Check TinyCartridge.com for the show notes!

After a short break, we return to talk about Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate's reveal, Renegade Kid's Moon Chronicles, and hints for several Level-5 games coming to the West. Check TinyCartridge.com for the show notes!

Our very mature podcast spends this episode tittering over Senran Kagura boobs, Chibi Robo butts, PlayStation Now bits, and 3DS region-locking boners. Check TinyCartridge.com for the show notes!

Some very serious topics in this latest podcast episode: Pokemon XY's transgender trainer, Bravely Default's unacceptable "censorship", and anime soccer. Check TinyCartridge.com for the episode's full show notes!
