No more so-so podcasts around here! Really, this is a great one. Prepare yourselves because Rebel In Japan has returned! Vinnk comes down from on high to tell us a little bit about the role that vending machines play in Japanese culture.
Also, you must listen to DSgamer21’s latest masterpiece. This is by far my favorite one so far. He plays not only the piano, but also the Violin and mixes the two together to give us an amazing rendition of Kirby’s Fountain Of Dreams tune.
And then we round things out with a little voyeuristic behavior while we comment on the IRC chat’s outpouring about our supposed Cnet buyout.
Finally we wrap it up by answering a listener submitted question about what’s in store for the DS as far as Wifi games are concerned.
Don’t forget to send us voicemail questions and just general voicemails. We’d love to hear what you guys think, not only of the podcast in general, but more importantly, the topics we cover. Agree or disagree, we want to know.

Hey guys, definately not a so so podcast
Enjoyed listening it all, now i need to go practice mkds again so i can finally let DSgamer21 bite some dust!
wes - 12.05.05 3:02 pm
Isn’t “Fountain of Dreams” a Kirby song?
Anyways, the podcast was a bit short but it was nice having Vinnk back with RiJ. You caused so much chaos with that prank on 4cr. So much CNET hate

Glad you guys liked it - I hope you’re all not offended.
mitch - 12.05.05 3:51 pm

I feel so unlove.
Can’t wait to get back into the online world
I need my internet tonight!
CoffeeMan - 12.05.05 4:00 pm
I always look for you, coffeeman.
With your outrageous french-candian accent.
mitch - 12.05.05 4:05 pm
Yea coffeeman… we missed you.
In fact, we’ve decided to have you do your own segment called, “Rebel… in Starbucks”!
;)
octorok - 12.05.05 4:13 pm
Not quite sure who does all the editing, but kudos, it’s always well done. A very slick rebel in japan, as always. A great listen all the way around, rock it.
robotplague - 12.05.05 4:14 pm
You know what Coffee? We actually stayed on topic this time. And do you know what we realized was the difference between this and all the other times? You weren’t here.
hokku - 12.05.05 4:59 pm
and i thought you loved me
haha
Have you notice how much advertising in game as become a big subject in the past weeks. I guess i had a vision when i thought of that topic in that roundtable. It’s a pretty hot topic, and one that we can’t get away from. advertising in game will become a big part of future games
CoffeeMan - 12.05.05 5:17 pm
hahahaa, my voice soudns so weird, on the voice mail!!!
Naveed - 12.05.05 5:28 pm
Dude, i cant wait for Bomberman online!!!
Naveed - 12.05.05 5:48 pm
HAhahaha.
Looking back on it, that night was pretty damn funny.
Oh and Nick, I really don’t want to stab you. Much.

Really nice Podcast. Can’t understand why it takes up about 4MB space on my harddrive… sounds about wrong I think, should a bigger file.
Big bonus for the Shadowgate background music by the way, awesome game with great music. Also another great piece from DSgamer21.
Rebel In Japan was great, well preformed and informative. It feels like that whole vending machine business is hard to understand for us that have never been to Japan before.
Keep up the good work guys. I hope for a full length roundtable next week though, that is my most favourite part.
Lance McCloud - 12.05.05 6:10 pm
:) Great job again! FAR more enjoyable than last weeks MKDS party which just made me feel left out, and jealous for not having a DS.
Keep up the good work. Keep the DSGamer21 music coming. Good stuff.

Aw, you guys read three of my chat-room comments (Cherry Garcia/Uwe Bowel/G4) an no name drop
Oh well, there is always the next hoax’s recap…
Morningbus - 12.05.05 6:56 pm
