We were talking about this after the recent podcast episode and I thought this would be a fun thing to compile. I will update this continuously.



Before there was the NintendoFuse Podcast, there was the Wii-kly Fuse Podcast. On August 23rd, 2008, the Wii-kly Fuse Podcast was announced. It started with Episode 0 on August 27th, which was a test to make sure things went well. It did, so we uploaded it. The podcast crew was me, Charmy, queenzelda, and Jacob/mazer. The official first episode was done on September 3rd, with Trist (at that time known as MOMZ) joining us. Later additions to the crew include Mickey/hey_suburbia, Nick/SirVenom and Steve/hattrick. This podcast was recorded over Skype, edited using Audacity, and then uploaded through Podbean to the WiiNintendo site.

We recorded episodes 12 and 13 at the end of 2008, but they were never edited and uploaded. I believe things just got really backed up (episode 11 for example was recorded on 11/14/08, but wasn't uploaded until 12/09/08). On January 15th, 2009, we announced that the Wii-kly Fuse Podcast would now be a co-leadership between Charmy and myself, and we asked for other crew members. This was supposed to be a revamp of the podcast. This didn't work out for multiple reasons. Then on June 11th, 2009, I announced that I would be I would be back as host and we were starting the crew as a clean slate. And thus... Nintendo Fuse was born.



On July 29th, 2009, I announced Nintendo Fuse on the forums. This was a fresh start to the podcast with a new crew, a new format, a new style, and this time with more experience. This time, we would be recording the show live using TalkShoe (after receiving feedback from members here). This was announced on the WiiNintendo main site on September 23rd, 2009. The first episode was recorded on September 29th, 2009. The initial podcast crew consisted of myself, Steve/hattrick, and Mickey/hey_suburbia. You can view the podcast's TalkShoe page or subscribe on iTunes. Over time, we had other podcast crew members join us, such as Nick/SirVenom, Jeremy/JHardin1112, Jacob/mazer, Justin/JumpingGirraffe, and Greg/Gamer Greg.

On March 24th, 2011, the WiiNintendo main site had a name change to NintendoFuse. This was to emphasize our focus on Nintendo as a whole. Because of this, I made "Nintendo Fuse" into one word (to be consistent with the site's name) and added the word podcast at the end. And thus, the current name of "NintendoFuse Podcast" was born. On September 6th, 2011, it was announced that we would be doing mostly pre-recorded episodes due to lack of time for live shows. On the three year anniversary, on September 29th, 2012, it was announced that we would stop with the pre-recorded episodes and go back to doing live shows. This is the current format of the show, with live recordings roughly every other Tuesday at 8 pm eastern.

Will update this post with download links for the old Wii-kly Fuse Podcast.

I'm so behind... I didn't realize that the podcast was on again. I need to download some of these and listen to them when I'm driving.

Later this year is our 100th episode by the way, and I'm gonna try and get all the crew members back for it. Once the date comes closer, I'll let you know. Hopefully you can join us!

Okay, so big update! After a good amount of work, I managed to complete almost all of the guide. It now has a full listing of every podcast episode, including detailed history of the podcast's progress over time. All that's left is updating the Wii-kly Fuse Podcast section with links to those episodes once I upload them (yes, I did find copies of all of the episodes, including two that were never uploaded... ooh!) so stay tuned for that. The NintendoFuse Podcast section takes you to a MP3 file of each episode if you click on its title, so you can stream/download it. And the details section next to each episode takes you to the NintendoFuse page for the episode, so you can see what it's about.

I surprised myself with how much there was, I don't even remember a good chunk of it. I remember the old days with the other crew members. And the pre-recorded episodes were fun because of the added music and our little transitions to each other. But they were way too much work, so I'm glad we're back with the live shows. Hopefully we can do a lot more interesting things with the podcast in the future! Oh, and I'm also surprised Trist was on the NintendoFuse Podcast for two different episodes. I totally forgot that, I thought he was only on the Wii-kly Fuse Podcast. Anyways, lots of great times and it was fun (and tiring) compiling it all.

I will continue to update this guide every time a new episode is posted. Can an admin/mod please sticky this topic? Also if anyone notices anything inaccurate or has any suggestions for this guide, please let me know!

Wow, you even dug up the article link for each one. Nice!

Hmmm... if I did my math right, the 100th podcast will be around October 1st... recorded at 8 PM... that's after work (oh, I have a job again) and very early into what should be a fairly undemanding semester. I should be able to make it! If I forget, send me a PM or an email.

Stickyfied.

lol trust me, I'm sure we'll take some breaks here and there, so it's really hard to say exactly when it'll be. But probably in the Fall sometime. And if need be, we can figure out a time that works for everyone. But it's way too early to say lol.

And yup, got the links and everything for them all! Still need to upload the recordings I have of the old Wii-kly Fuse Podcast. But other than that, it's pretty much set. And I'll continue to update this as time goes on.
