Re: Could YOU be an expert corespondent for the RB Podcast?

After hearing TEKTORO as the Tony Hawk expert on today's new podcast, I thought "hey, I could be an expert like that"

I see the classic arcade slot is filled, but I notice you had a non-video pinball opening there. I could do that, alongside arcade games, I've played and studied the history of pinball enough to know a lot about them. IPDB is my friend :lol:

I've got a pastiche of history with anime and gaming (70s~90s), but I think D.S. has that covered.

I have a few friends who are more knowledgeable about game music; some orchestral composition, but mainly chiptunes. I can probably leech their knowledge temporarily if I prepare myself.
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.

I thought the Konami off-shoot only had two games that got multiple ports (Bangai-O, Ikaruga) -- before they broke down and did sequels on other consoles (Advanced Guardian Heroes, Sin & Punishment 2, etc.)

Of yeah, the one tidbit of possibly unique Treasure trivia I could contribute is that a lot of their staff members were in the credits for Axelay (SNES).

Pretty knowledgeable on Saturn stuff if you ever have an episode with a lot SS or arcade port topics.

Everything from the history to the VCD card to imports. :)

Also, a Jaguar enthusiast if the ill fated Jag is a topic.

Not an expert of the subjects requested :)
