After listening to some of the old podcasts there were a few things that I wish I saw more often on the newer podcasts. I know there are probably some good reasons for their deletion, however, if it's possible I'd love to see the following re-implemented.
1) Sound Effects: I loved the corny little beats before each section of the show. It seems like it would be pretty easy to throw them back in the podcast.
2) The Other (unsung) Intro: This is obviously a personal preference, but I enjoyed the intro that wasn't sung out loud, like it has been for the last few episodes. I guess the singing was funny at first but it's a bit annoying now.
3) Prizes & Give-a-Ways: Pogs, Prize-packs, Nintendo Cards, Contests…must I say more?
4) Geo-Cities Site of the Week: I know, I know, Geo-cities doesn't exist anymore, however, it would be cool if Mike & Jeromy did a similar review process discussing YouTube retrogame reviewers. There's plenty out there.
5) Guests: There hasn't been a guest on the retrocast in a long time! I understand it's difficult to set that up, but it would be entertaining to have one on the show ever so often. Maybe every other month or two? I think you could even use someone from the forums, like Hugues Johnson for instance…
Disclaimer:
By no means am I trying to say that the retrocast is a crappy show or that it has gone down hill. I think Jeromy & Mike are doing an excellent job. I'm simply trying to make a few suggestions.
