ferghead Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Thank you guys. I don't sound like Barry White anymore but I'm coughing more than I was on Tuesday. I have an extra day off on Monday so I'm hoping that will do the trick. I have to be physically unable to do something in order to not do that thing, mostly work and now my podcast. If that makes sense. I just don't like disappointing anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1500 Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 With the crackdown of gaming videos on YouTube, there's going to be a big 'ol shakeup in several podcasts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1500 Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 In the latest ANTIC episode, they mentioned being nominated for best computer podcast for the 2013 poddies. It's fun hearing the legend of the 2013 poddie awards reaching out to the other tribes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1500 Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 What's that Japanese Space Invaders game about? I couldn't find any info about it. Looks interesting, with the 2-player competitive SI. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbid Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 http://www.gamefaqs.com/ps/924885-space-invaders-japan/images/box-59655 It's arcade SI with an extra 2 player mode. Well worth the price of an import... which isn't much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flack Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Is that the PS2 one that came with the custom table-top arcade controller? http://www.thestrong.org/online-collections/images/Z004/Z00478/Z0047825.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbid Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 the version with the 2 player version is for the ps1. tatton has that ps2 game you mentioned. the mini cab is a pretty cool idea. you slip your playstation controller inside.

Austin Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 the version with the 2 player version is for the ps1. tatton has that ps2 game you mentioned. the mini cab is a pretty cool idea. you slip your playstation controller inside. The SNES version also has the two player mode, as does the Saturn and NUON versions as well. It seems like for a while they were basically kicking around the same home version of Space Invaders with the two player mode. I'm surprised only the SNES and NUON ones made it to the USA though. I'm not sure about the PS1 or Saturn versions, but in the NUON one they backed the versus gameplay with music from varying Taito arcade games over the years, games like Darius, Gun Frontier, etc. Cool stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisbid Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Instead of the cool version, we got this on the Playstation and N64 http://www.ign.com/images/games/space-invaders-ps-11496 (further evidence 'space invader guy' was not a mascot in the US) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerSpaceFan Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 the version with the 2 player version is for the ps1. Wait, what??? There's a Space Invaders cocktail machine for the PS1??? I saw the pic above, anyone got a pic of the PS1 version? I think I know what I want for Christmas now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1500 Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 The Intellivisionairies tribe talked of the 2013 poddies in Episode 4. Quite possibly the longest discussion of the poddies(and how funny it sounds) I have ever heard! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) I like the acknowledgements/shoutouts in most of the shows I sub to. The podcast brotherhood grows ever stronger via this "intertwinedness". Intellivisionaries @14:25 in: Rick(?) states I began this thread; S1500 is the real instigator I consider myself more of a co-pilot. Not many people know, IIRC this thread actually originated from 2 seperate podcast threads- one by me, the other by S1500. I followed/found him over here (hence my "here you are" comment early on) & rather than create a thread for every single podcast, this thread became a catch-all that has proven its worth to listeners, fans, & show hosts. if you care to research, you could maybe find the 2 original threads, buried under 4+ yrs of time & text, that gave birth to this one. I'm too lazy for that. re: RetroRewind podcast #27: wow, those kids have never sounded more stoned! Baked Quitos- in ranch, jalapeño, & BBQ, new from NA-BIS-CO (ding!)

S1500 Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 In doing research, I completely forgot about "1 more podcastle". They are up to episode 66 now. I'll have to give this a listen. http://1morecastle.com/category/podcast/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I used to listen to them, the best part was the Retro Showdown, but I came to the conclusion it wasnt worth it. The best ep. Is where one regular host gets pretty miffed from a discussion with the guest, you could tell by his tone at the end that guy likely wasnt welcomed back.

+nurmix Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I like the acknowledgements/shoutouts in most of the shows I sub to. The podcast brotherhood grows ever stronger via this " I agree with you RJ. I listen to a lot of other gaming podcasts too, and acknowledging them and their contributions is something I feel compelled to do when I have a microphone in front of me. It's great to be part of this 'brotherhood'. The more the merrier if you ask me. That's a big reason why we joined the Throwback Network. A community like that makes it easier for others to find more quality podcasts. And when the community dynamic is carried over to forums like this, it strengthens it even more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 (edited) working fine (so far) after 2nd time downloading directly from your site...

ComputerSpaceFan Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 As a big fan of ImplantGames I am really hoping you and Chris have sorted out the audio tracks, Austin. Several episodes recently have both of you talking over each other like you can't hear the other person speaking and it's kinda jarring. Episode 57 being a recent example. I know you've had some tech issues recently, and I hope it all gets fixed up soon. I love your shows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
