Molehill Mountain Episode 32 – Will Nintendo Switch Dominate or Submit?

Published January 16, 2017 by Andrew Eisen

Last week, Nintendo spent an hour telling us all about its upcoming portable console, the Nintendo Switch. So naturally, EZK and Andrew spend two and a half hours talking about Nintendo talking about the Nintendo Switch!

I don’t know if we were speaking the truth or speaking bollocks but somehow we attracted a lot more live viewers than usual. Hope to see all our new friends next week!

No topic time stamps this time but we do talk about the new Switch info in the same order it was presented during Nintendo’s event.

Molehill Mountain Episode 29 – Always Online

Published December 13, 2016 by E. Zachary Knight

Andrew is away for the next two weeks, so you lucky ducks get to spend some quality time with EZK. This week, we enjoy some DRM chat. Nintendo’s Super Mario Run for iPhone is reported to require a constant data connection to play and several game developers have decided Denuvo, the supposed unhackable DRM, is not for them and have patched it out of their games.

It may be all EZK, all the time in this episode but Andrew does make an appearance in the chat, which we’ve transcribed below. Next week, he’ll be on a plane where he can’t watch the podcast or play Super Mario Run.

Molehill Mountain Episode 28 – What Has Two Thumbs and Hates Hamilton?

Published December 6, 2016 by Andrew Eisen

After a bit of the usual yammering, Andrew starts the show with a review of Hamilton (18:50), then he and EZK take an unexpected political detour discussing Trump’s feelings on Hamilton (32:40) before debating the Electoral College vs popular vote (37:45). Getting back on track we talk about The Game Awards (52:39) and Playstation Experience (1:09:51).

And, for those that requested it, I’ve pasted a chat transcript at the bottom of this story. Enjoy!

Molehill Mountian Episode 25: All Sold Out

Published November 15, 2016 by Andrew Eisen

Andrew had to work last weekend so Zachary took the show’s reins and spent most of the time discussing Nintendo’s, um… interesting choice not to open pre-orders for the NES Classic Edition in North America as well as the console’s limited supplies bolstering scalper culture (in other words: Do you want an NES Classic Edition right now? You’re probably going to have to rely on re-sellers who are asking over five times its retail price.)

EZK also spends some time talking about Trump’s policies.
