Podcast appearances and mentions of steve race

A special pre-election edition of Devoncast rounds up some more of the people looking to secure your votes for their party on the 4th of July. Over the past six weeks or so, Devoncast has spoken to many of the candidates themselves in constituencies right across the county. We have spoken to the prime minister, to party leaders, to former party leaders and famous faces from the very top echelons of British politics. And we've had expert analysis from university lecturers, trying to unpick what might happen to our beloved Devon, depending on what happens this week. On this special edition of Devoncast, Alfie Richardson from Radio Exe meets three more people who want you to know what they stand for ahead of the big day - Labour candidates Helen Dallimore and Steve Race, along with Reform UK's Matthew Sykes.

This is a thing we're doing now, so keep an eye open for those.Here's a sample of the full show notes - make sure to click through and check them out.Show NotesThis is part two - of four - of a conversation with author and video game historian Steven L Kent, and is a collaboration between ourselves and Zoom Platform. Whilst this is an audio episode, it was originally recorded as a pair of video interviews. What we've done is cut the two video interviews into four parts and will be releasing them as audio episodes. But if you'd rather watch the first two parts as a video you'll find it here.Part Two of FourAs a reminder, Steven describes his books asMy books are called "The Ultimate History of Video Games".Volume 1 starts out with Abraham Lincoln and Bagatelle, and goes all the way to 2000 and sort of the collapse of the Dreamcast - or it's about to collapse, you can tell that it's faltering - PlayStation 2 has been announced and is just coming out, and Xbox has been announced.Book two has some overlap, because there will be some people who read volume 2 without reading volume 1, so it's got a bunch of overlap. But what's interesting is that I thought I'd be able to go from 2000 to the present, but I only got to 2012. So volume three should come out around 2026.- Steven L Kent299No discussion on video game history would be complete without a discussion on "the price heard" around the world. Which you can find here.And for those who don't know, there is a very long story behind the crowd reaction here. Essentially, the story is that Sega had just announced their Saturn (only a few hours earlier), which was a surprise to most of the retailers who were in attendance (because Sega hadn't told them that it was being announced). Sega also announced it with a $399 price tag.As such, Sony's entire announcement of the PlayStation was simply299- Steve Race, CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment---The following is a promo-spot for The Shrimp and Crits Podcast.

He started Nintendo's "responsible engineering" philosophy - the idea that they will use technology that is widely available now in order to innovate in non-traditional ways. And this is something that Nintendo has continued to do to this day. He was the designer of the Game&Watch, GameBoy, the "cross pad" controller, and the Metroid series.Steven shared a wonderful story about Gunpei in this episode:So I was at a CES - I was fairly new in the industry - and Virtual Boy had not come out yet. I was covering [Virtual Boy] for Electronic Games.I went to Nintendo and I said, "I wanna meet all these people," in truth I clipped their names out of "Game Over" by David Sheff. I didn't know this people. Nobody did, really. If it weren't for Sheff, we might still not know them... [Nintendo] gave me some Miyamoto time.But Gunpei Yokoi gave me an hour, two days in a row. And after that, if we were ever at a show and we would see each other, we'd go have a drink together. We couldn't talk very much, because my Japanese is non-existant, and I'm not sure where his English was, but it wasn't strong. But there was a bond, there was a real friendship.I remember the last time I got to see him was at the unveiling of the N64 at Space World... and everyone ran to this one corner and looked at the N64, and near the exit as you left, there was a little ring of Virtual Boys and Gunpei was there with his translator. And as I was leaving to write my article about the N64, there's Gunpei and he's like, "Can you come take a look at things?" And he was my friend, so I went and looked at things, and it wasn't wonderful. And nobody else was there, so we sat and talked, and his translator translated for me.And that was the last time that I got to see him. And he was a wonderful gentleman: he was nice, he was smart, and he had a self-deprecating sense of humour. I think he already knew that he was leaving Nintendo at that point.- Steven L KentFull Show NotesMake sure to check out the full show notes for more discussion on the points we raise, some extra meta-analysis, and some links to related things.What have you been playing recently?

So volume three should come out around 2026.- Steven L KentA Sense of DiscoveryJay mentioned that the sense of discovery related to technology may be lost on the younger generations via a story about when he and Squidge got their first NES:It's December 26th, 19-mumble-mumble, and we've gotten up early... Dad walks in with a present under his arm, and it's a NES.And it's the memory of opening up the box and saying, "Oh, what's this?" because we'd never even seen a video game console before. And it being a family activity that we're discovering what the contents of this box are, together.And I remember so vividly. We had Super Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt on the cartridge. I remember fumbling my way into starting Super Mario Bros. and suddenly I'm controlling a cartoon. It's not a video game, because it looks like a cartoon to me.And I was talking to someone the other day about this...- JayThe "someone" was Jay's appearance on the Gamerhood Podcast, where he talked about being a gamer and a father.Video Game CommercialsWhen discussing Crash Bandicoot, Steven brings up a fantastic commercial for Crash Bandicoot which was filmed in the parking lot of the Nintendo US headquarters. Here is that commercial.Which lead us on to the "Michael" commercial for PS3.299No discussion on video game history would be complete without a discussion on "the price heard" around the world.

Since its inception the organization has created rules for issuing and using credentials. The group was awarded one of the latest pilots for the National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace. The TSCP pilot will deploy trusted credentials to conduct secure business-to-business, government-to-business and retail transactions for small and medium-sized businesses and financial services companies, including Fidelity Investments and Chicago Mercantile Exchange. Steve Race, vice president of operations for TSCP, filled Regarding ID's Gina Jordan in on the pilot.
