It's announced this week that the Amico has launched, just not as a console but as an Android app. Will the necessity of needing two devices, one to serve as the Amico and the other to serve as a controller prove too difficult for this "family friendly" system? And why after saying that games would cost $8 or less is an attempt to charge $15 for the games being made? Do we think the real console will ever see the light of day? We discuss all this and more on a holiday edition of the longest running video game podcast, Orange Lounge Radio!

The Game Award Nominees have been announced, and in what was such a huge year for video game releases, do the awards seem competitive, or does it seem like one game is set to easily win the biggest awards? Are there some categories where the competition seems to be a little slower? And how can the direction the Game Awards seem to be headed compared to other well known award shows of other art forms? We discuss this and much more on another week of the longest running video game podcast, Orange Lounge Radio!

There's a video game company we've been following for a long time on our show, and just when we though maybe the company was moving in a new direction, they pull some stunts with a recent tournament that leaves one of our hosts seething. Should a video game company have better customer service, or do we have to accept some of the cultural differences? We discuss and debate on our program tonight. With the Thanksgiving holiday in the states on the horizon, the game releases are coming fast and furious. We cover all the news leading up to a huge release week to cap of a huge year in gaming releases. All this and more on another week of the longest running video game podcast, Orange Lounge Radio!

Next Year, total online support will be ending for the Nintendo WiiU and the 3DS. Although the eShop support was previously pulled for these systems, this is still a major event that has some game preservationists sad. At least one title will still keep the lights on, since this iconic franchise would suffer a bit of a setback if they didn't. Pour one out for those still playing their 3DS's as the lights go out in 2024.... but could a new Nintendo system be out by that time to help us forget? We talk about all this, our gaming weeks, and much more in the news on another week of the longest running video game podcast: Orange Lounge Radio!

A game near and dear to us turned 25 years old this past week, and we take time at the top of our show to reflect on our memories of what Dance Dance Revolution has meant to us over the years. Without it, we wouldn't have this show, and we're excited that the game has had a recent "2nd Mix" life to allow new generations to play it and bond over it. It's not just Memories (get it?) though, as we dive into the weeks news, including a major hack at Sony. Could this be something similar to what Sony experienced in the Playstation 3 era, or is the data that's been breached not that big of a deal all things considered? We discuss all this and much much more on another week of the longest running video game podcast, Orange Lounge Radio!

Just when you thought the news couldn't break any harder than it did last week, an avalanche of unredacted Microsoft documents was unleashed onto the gaming public by an oops of epic proportions. We get to see e-mails, concepts for yet to be released consoles, and so much more. We talk about some of the unredacted secrets, but also take a moment to call out some of those in the industry using this to create more clicks for their websites unnecessarily. It's all just another week in the gaming world, and we break it down on another episode of the longest running video game podcast, Orange Lounge Radio!

What a busy week in gaming news? Who could have possibly predicted that Unity would indeed unify the whole industry against them by making a switcheroo change to their pricing. With some oddly timed sales of stock, could this go so far as to land a major CEO in hot water legally? Well if there's any justice in this world there might be... is what one host of Orange Lounge Raido says multiple times! All this AND two big "direct" presentations from Nintendo and Sony in the same day. Phew, what a week! Tune in to hear the wrapups on all this and much more on another week of a podcast that's been running so long it's older than Steam, Orange Lounge Radio!
