I've been looking for an opportunity to post this live panel from last fall's Super Famicon convention in Greensboro for a while. The time to strike is now! Mainly because we have a pretty interesting interview with former Midway designer Mark Turmell about the history of the NEMO system (which gave rise to the game under discussion here) coming up soon. Plus, there was a cold day down in hell this week when Night Trap was confirmed for release on a Nintendo platform. The stars have aligned, and they're shining down on a trio of dudes talking about a mansion packed with Augurs.
Josh Fairhurst and Chris Sims joined me for this presentation, and it turned out pretty well. The sound quality is much better than you sometimes get with live events. Some of our comments may sound a little choppy, though… I had to perform a lot of surgery on this episode to remove a frequent, abrasive, percussive sound that would have made this episode unlistenable. SOMEONE (not naming any names!) is not very good at holding stick mics without smacking his hand into the sensitive part…
