Backwards-Compatible podcast # 5 records tonight, leave us your questions

Tonight me, Xavier, Pendelton, and Armando [edit: and James] will be discussing the latest haps in the gaming industry. First up is the releases of the week

Lots of Nintendo news to come out of GDC including the announcement of a new Zelda game entitled Spirit Tracks, and the original Final Fantasy games coming to the Virtual Console along with Wii firmware 4.0 that enables downloaded games and channels to be run directly off the SD card getting rid of the need to copy/pasta things back and forth. Very good news indeed. The bad thing about this is that you can't install the Homebrew Channel after you install the new update, but if you had it installed before, it will still show up.

Anyway, Eidos will also become a permanent member of the Square-Enix family in May, OnLive will probably not work as well as promised, along with some new Fable news.
