You’ll have to think fast and move even faster to complete this podcast! Gaming Jesus is being held captive by the evil Koopa tribe of turtles. It’s up to you to rescue him from the clutches of the Koopa King before time runs out. But it won’t be easy. To get there, you’ll have to listen to detailed impressions of Super Mario 3D Land, plus chatter about Uncharted 3, Wii U, the future of the 3DS, controller patents, and some late-breaking info about Robin Hood and where babies come from.

Before Brain Training there was Myst on PC that appealed to everyone, particularly casuals who had never played games before. It used mainly a mouse for interaction.
Sorry for re-posting this, but my curiosity just can’t be helped :P
Alright, tons of new questions for the wonder group! (sounds like a suitable nickname ;)) Hope these aren’t too personal. Let’s get started!
So when did you all start learning japanese? Were you interested in Japan and it’s culture early in your life? Or was it something you started dedicating more time to in recent years? ( Before you moved )
Also, was there any sort of tutoring/classes involved? Or did you learn/study the language and culture on your own?
Also: I know you’ve already replied to this question on one of your podcasts, but here in Europe we have slightly different definitions of what a “degree” is.
Last time, you replied that we didn’t necessarily need a degree ( At least the majority of the people working there didn’t have one ) to be considered as a potential candidate. Do you mean that we do not need to attend college entirely?
