POPULARITY
Do you hear that sound? Can you feel it? The cool ocean breeze in your hair, the salt on your tongue. It's the smooth crash of the Last Wave on KVGM with your host, Hammock, bringing you thirty minutes of the best video game jams(z) from all your favorite composers and consoles, each and every week from our beachside studio in sunny Aqua City Island. Sit back, relax, and get ready to catch...the Last Wave.Virtual pinball, cute thieves, OEKAKI LOGIC, even pizza parties in sewer hangouts...we've got it all on this week's show, and of course, plenty of smooth jams to satisfy even the smoothest jammers out there. Also be sure to check out our Patreon because if you think these jams are smooth, you're missing out on some of the very smoothest. It's less than a Starbucks coffee a month, it helps support the show, plus you get a special show nobody else gets...unless they're a Patreon patron. Of course.DOWNLOAD - THE LAST WAVE (5/16/21)PlaylistLike the Wind (Slow Arrange) - Hiroshi Kawaguchi and Kazuhiko Iwami(Sega Ages: Power Drift, Sega Saturn)The One Always By My Side... - Doors Music Entertainment(With You, PC)Menu - Unknown(DS Puzzler: NumPlay Fan & Oekaki Logic, Nintendo DS)High Scores - Virtual Destructors, Jon Lowe, Tom Guest, and Ian Chattam(Pro Pinball: Big Race USA, Sony Playstation)Android's Dream - Takeharu Nakahata(Himawari: Pebble in the Sky Portable, Playstation Portable)Café - Peak A Soul+(Kaitou Apricot, Sega Dreamcast)Last Cutscene - Yuichi Tsuchiya and Masanori Akita(Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Battle Nexus, Game Boy Advance)Credits - Masaru Tajima and Shinji Ushiroda(Excitebots: Trick Racing, Nintendo Wii)

With keys in the ignition, Rick and Ben speed off on a discussion about driving and racing games. From classic arcade games that influenced the genre to violent street brawlers, our hosts take a journey down the road of their favorite games that put players behind the wheel. Plus, Rick enlightens to audience to his engine sound fetish, and Ben brags about his doughnut eating abilities.

This week we discuss rumors about a water-related Nintendo game, the Wii Light patent, Pokemon Global Link's opening, 3DS sales in Japan, and much more! Our "Featured Game" is Excitebots: Trick Racing, and the "Discussion Topic" is about the Angry Birds developer's comments about Nintendo games being "$49 pieces of plastic". --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nintendofuse/message
This week, we provide a live translation of (most of) the recently released Japanese Final Fantasy XIII demo for the PS3. We also discuss some of the backstory of Final Fantasy games in general, including no less than three mentions of Mystic Quest. Sadly, our PROTIPS were not listened to by our live audience playing the game, hence why we say "most of" the demo is translated... Then, in the CC Gaming Hardware Spotlight, take a Nintendo DS Lite that isn't powering on and repair it live on the air with just a multimeter and a soldering iron. And then we open up Excitebots: Trick Racing for the Wii, learn that we can't play Multiplayer out of the box, but unlock the mode anyway and have some local races.
