Episode 38
With a less-than-ideal microphone (for once, Boter is louder than Claw!), Boter and Claw talk about Activision related-topics, with more leaving Infinity Ward, more suits against Activision, and a surprising announcement by Bungie of working with the world's biggest game publisher. They then talk a bit about Ubisoft, Nintendo, and Apple, and then discuss the hidden gem of a game called Beat Hazard.

Episode 36
The hosts talk about April Fool's day, Green Day Rock Band, Infinity Ward and the PS3 in this half-length edition of the Game Nutz Podcast. Hopefully regular recording and editing schedules will resume soon.
Yes, the joke was drawn out for two weeks due to skipping a week for the podcast then late editing. This officially makes us lame.

Game Nutz Podcast suspended (April Fool's Day)
EDIT: This was an April Fool's Day gag that got dragged out due to scheduling conflicts. For more info, please read the comments, and/or listen to Episode 36.
Starting with the episode "Fillercast 1," we have been using the classic Super Mario Bros. coin sound for bleeping expletives in our podcasts. We did this without considering the legal ownership rights of the sound. Today we received a letter from Nintendo's Legal Department concerning the sound.
Here is an excerpt:
"It has come to our attention that you are utilizing on your Podcast, Game Nutz Podcast (gamenutzpodcast.blogspot.com), a sound effect from a Nintendo video game title without written consent from Nintendo of America or its Parent Company. This letter constitutes a demand that you immediately cease utilizing, reproducing and distributing Nintendo's proprietary sounds and remove all uses of said sound from past Podcasts.
...
"This letter constitutes notice to you that your actions are illegal and may subject you to criminal prosecution and civil liability. We will be monitoring your Podcast to see if you are in compliance with the law and reserve the right to take
all steps necessary to protect Nintendo's rights.
Sincerely,
NINTENDO OF AMERICA INC."
There's a bunch of legal jargon in the second paragraph I edited out, but you get the gist. While we have agreed to cease and desist usage of the sound in future episodes, Nintendo is requiring that we pay back royalties for each past usage (Giant Corporate Hate episode, we're looking at you), or else face further legal action, up to and including a pending lawsuit. Until these payments are made in full, there will be no new episodes. We apologize for any inconvenience, and hope that you will continue checking for updates in the coming week, and ask that you show your support by visiting our stores located on Rt. 5 in both Sherrill and Canastota, NY and making a purchase from our wide variety of video games, systems, and accessories. Thank you.

Episode 31
In this episode of the Game Nutz Podcast, Boter and FearTheClaw talk about some various Nintendo news and then vent about the improper use of terminology used at the stores by some customers. Claw talks Sonic and both do a horrible job of lamenting the UK retailer GAME.

Episode 23
In the first episode in a couple months without the Which Sucks Less feature, Boter and FearTheClaw (again with StickyNugget absent, I wonder what happened to him) carry the show without any embarrassing retreads of some of their earlier attempts (though they're in Canastota again; yay, acoustics). They start off with a conversation about downloadable content timing, move on to PBS televising the Video Games Live concert this year and video game music in general, and some new Nintendo trademarks. Boter, meanwhile, talks about downloadable content for A Kingdom For Keflings on Xbox Live Arcade, beta testing the same game on the PC, and then introduces the Dark Void Grab Bag of Swag.
To win the Grab Bag of Swag, do as the man says. Tell your friends to listen to the podcast and have them e-mail gamenutzpodcast@gmail.com with your name. We will then send them a question pertaining to this week's podcast. Once they answer (confirming that they did actually listen), you'll be credited for them. The person who gets us the most listeners (whether they ultimately become a subscriber or not) wins the Grab Bag of Swag.

Fillercast 2
As Claw got this in about half a week late, and Boter was still recovering from his trip, last week's Fillercast makes the first part of a Game Nutz Podcast double header this weekend! Give a listen as FearTheClaw, Schnazzy and Orlan Drake talk about Modern Warfare Reflex Edition on the Wii, Facebook on the 360, and some creative uses for the PS3. They then talk about Nintendo news and rumors and spend the last few minutes raging about the decision of DS Lite over DSi for Which Sucks Less a few weeks back.

After that, it's been a couple of busy news weeks and the crew talks about Modern Warfare 2, Assassin's Creed: Lineage, and the Nintendo DSi XL. They wrap up the massive amount of topics with a dense burst of Halo and finally sign off.

Episode 2 - E3 Roundup Blitz
In this special hour-long episode of the Game Nutz Podcast, StickyNugget and Boter blitz through the E3 news they've gathered throughout the week, then likely go to take a nap to make up for all the sleep they lost in gathering all of it and trying to cram it into one hour. Nightmares will probably include Milo staring into their soul.
