Today's episode features multi-agency owner and all around marketing ninja warrior, David Moore. He currently runs two agencies and has done some wild and effective things to generate new business. One time he sent a long piece of foam board to target decision makers at companies he wanted to work with. The boards were too long to fit in their mailboxes and stuck out, which was the point. On each board were the words, "Want to stick out?". It worked. If you enjoyed the last episode with NBZ about generating new business, this is the perfect companion. Have a listen. Enjoy!
Hey there it is me, Nbz. I don't know if anyone reads the description or not. I think most people just look at the timestamps and don't actually read the little thing I write here? Should I stop doing it? I don't know. I kinda like writing it but I also don't know if its worth writing. Anyway this episode has some video games like Eastward which is very good and Toem which is also good and Flynn: Son of Crimson which is quite good. Then we talk about that Nintendo Direct where they talk about Chris Pratt being Mario for some reason. Oh also Bayonetta 3 and a 3D Kirby game. Wild stuff people. Truly wild. Anyway if you did read this then contact me or email the show and let me know if you care about it, and if no one does then I think I'll just start leaving timestamps here. Anyway have a nice day and I hope you enjoy the episode.

"We make cool s**t for brands." I'd be lying if I said I loved it. It's a little try hard, and to Simone Oppenheimer and Rachel Segall, it isn't a compelling, sellable point of differentiation. You see, Simone and Rachel run their own startup. It's called NBZ. And I admittedly thought they were a consultancy that gave tactical suggestions on how to drum up new business. But they are not. They're so much more than that. NBZ, in my mind, is a marketing agency for marketing agencies. They take the things we're so good at doing for others, and force us to do it on ourselves. It's like going to Mr. Miyagi to be taught how to punch only to find yourself doing chores for days. Then to look back later and realize you'd suck at punching if you didn't put in that initial work. Was that a good analogy? I don't know. You know what else I don't know? Whether Gush is a brand about making cool shit. I'll have to get back to you on that. In the meantime, listen to them blow up what we built in the best possible way. Enjoy.
Hey folks, we're back! It's been a while since we recorded so we have a ton to talk about, including Nintendo's latest release WarioWare: Get It Together that we've both been playing and enjoying. Bally and Nbz have also been diving deep into Axiom Verge 2, the follow up to the cult classic Metroidvania and have a lot of good things to say about it. Nbz meanwhile finally finished the behemoth of a game that is The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve, one which he thinks holds up as a series best, and we close things out with a quick chat about What The Dub, a ridiculous party game that is excellent for stag weekends. After the break we answer your emails about the Game Boy games we want to see come to Switch Online as well as ranking the sales potential of Nintendo's releases for the end of the year. We finish things up with a discussion about how much we spend on video games and the price of the hobby in general, spurred on by a supposed price drop that the Switch is getting in Europe.

Hey everyone! Apologies if this episode sounds out of date, that's because it is! We recorded this one a while ahead of release because Bally was getting married. However we still got plenty of games to talk about, including Pokemon Legends Arceus and the new footage shown in a recent Pokemon Presents showcase - it's definitely growing on us. Nbz meanwhile has been puzzling around in Lego Builders Journey, a branded game with a heart of gold, while Bally has played through the short but sweet adventure Florence on Switch. Nbz has also been taking an RPG history lesson with Soul Blazer, an oft forgotten game from Quintet, the creators of Act Raiser, and begins his journey in playing all three games in the "Quintet Trilogy." After the break we take some of your emails about how our thoughts have evolved on games since we played them and what are the best video game romantic match ups that we can concoct.

We're back baby and its time for video games. We kick things off with a chat about the latest Indie World Showcase from Nintendo and how it might be one of the best ones yet with shadow drops and release dates aplenty. Nbz gives his very early impressions of one of those shadow dropped games - Axiom Verge 2, before both Bally and Nbz wax lyrical about surprise hit Dodgeball Academia! It's a Sports RPG meets Pokemon meets My Hero Academia and is wonderful. After the break we dive into some of your emails talking about small team indie developers as well as how Nintendo can create more experimental entries in their most beloved series.

Hey everyone! We're back, this time with a much shorter show than last time, but not to say that we don't have plenty to talk about. Nbz kicks things off with The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD, marking the first time in 10 years that he has revisited this classic. Bally and Nbz have both been checking out Death's Door, the recently released isometric action game from Devolver and Acid Nerve. Nbz has also started on The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles as this beloved series makes a grand return, meanwhile Bally has been playing Part Time UFO a cool little puzzle game from HAL, the creators of Kirby and TNL favourite Box Boy! Nbz closes out with a trio of games in Jelly Boy, Flatland Vol. 2 and Gunstar Super Heroes. Phew that was a lot of video games. After the break we hit up the email inbox and answer questions on game words that we mispronounce and whether fans should worry about games selling well.

Hey folks, we're back! Its getting close to the big 200 but first we must talk about the big Nintendo game of the moment with Mario Golf: Super Rush. Both Nbz and Bally have been playing it and certainly have a lot of thoughts to deliver. Nbz has also been playing the latest Smash Bros character with Kazuya Mishima from the Tekken series, as well as taking a brief look at Pokémon Unite from the Japanese e-shop.

Hey everyone! We're back with a regular old episode, though Nbz is coughing up a storm the show must go on! Bally kicks things off with another Zelda ticked off the list, The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages. Nbz meanwhile has been playing a late 3DS release, the forgotten Ever Oasis from Grezzo.

Hey folks! We're back with more podcasting and more Nintendo chat. Nbz kicks things off with Nintendo's newest, hottest release...a remake from the 1980s with Famicom Detective Club! He discusses the first game, The Missing Heir, and how it feels both modern and archaic in equal measure. Bally meanwhile checks in with Abzu, a relaxing underwater game from a few years ago. Nbz closes out the segment with Ori & The Will of the Wisps on Switch and implores everyone to go buy it as it is on sale.
