The Not Old - Better Show

Nintendo Switch Launch 55+ Age Gaming, with David Young The Not Old Better Show, Interview Series NINTENDO SWITCH Nintendo is launching its new console, the Switch, tomorrow, 3/3/17. I was invited to the big Nintendo party in Washington DC, recently, where I interviewed Nintendo PR chief, David Young about the Nintendo Switch's grand coming out party, where it's not just the concept that and I got to see the games, in the bold light of day, and learned precious details about system itself. Nintendo is allowing hands-on Switch play by the press and public for the first time in a few events around the world. Rumors have been swirling about what exactly the Switch event will reveal. The two biggest rumors regarding the Switch at present are that the system will cost around $299, and that it will debut with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild as a launch title. But there are many more mysteries to solve, including what other games the system will launch with, what third party developers will contribute to the system and the more technical aspects of the console and its self-contained screen-controller. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW, RIGHT UP FRONT: Launches March, 2017, $299 "edgy, millennial angled home/mobile hybrid 3 basic modes: TV Mode, Tabletop Mode, and Handheld Mode The "Joy-Cons" which control the games, are like next gen Wii remotes with advanced internal "rumble" haptics (explain) that can distinguish different sensations Battery life is 2.5 – 6.5 hours, depending on game, according to Nintendo According to Nintendo Director, Shinya Takahashi, the inspiration for the Switch dates to the 19th (this refers to Nintendo's card making history, playing cards, and card games geared towards playing with other people) Core gamers are crucial to the Switch's intial launch and marketing, but from there, core gamers, and others will help convey the appeal of the new games (1-2 Switch, e.g.) to a broader audience, and get them excited. To that end, audiences like my own, of 55+ age community, will be excited about Nintendo's ongoing commitment to them, because Switch is partly an experiment to address certain cultural differences. As an example, kids playing with grandparents. One of the games I read about, which IMO, shows Nintendo's commitment to the 55+ age, as well as to the notion of players working side by side, is the game Snipperclips. Could you describe this game, in terms of what you're to accomplish, when playing with other people, and how the "Puzzle solving" aspect builds hand eye coordination, so important to 55+ age community. Plus, this is a very social game. The event was spectacular and I spoke to Mario & Luigi, Nintendo representatives, Nintendo fans, families Here's what some of them had to say about the game.

Gluten: Cynthia Kupper, CEO, Gluten Intolerance Group (GIG) Food & Travel Interview Series Many Americans are considering cutting back on the amount of gluten in their diets or avoiding it altogether. In a recent poll, 30 percent of adults said they wanted to "cut down or be free of gluten." There are many myths surrounding gluten, and the truth is that, for most people, a gluten free diet won't provide a benefit. Gluten is a protein found in many grains including wheat, rye and barley. It's found in most breads, cereals, pastas and many processed foods. People who have a condition called celiac disease develop an immune reaction to gluten that damages the intestine, and so they need to avoid the protein. About 1 percent of the population has celiac disease. But, among the 55+ age community, diagnosis of celiac disease is on the rise, and is almost double over the general population. You can eat a healthy diet without gluten, but you have to be very knowledgeable, and most people are unaware. Our guest today, Cynthia Kupper is one very aware person about the subject of gluten. Cynthia Kupper is CEO of the Gluten Intolerance Group or GIG (gluten.org), one of the world's foremost authorities on the subject of gluten, gluten diets, gluten contamination, and what the future holds for those of us trying to eat healthy, and trying to do it the right way.

Mark Twain Was Right! Age: Mind Over Matter, and if You Don't Mind, It Doesn't Matter As you listen, think about it... Wrinkles. Joint pain. Fatigue. Bla bla bla. Are these the only things you think of when you think about getting old? If so, then you'd better stop that. RIGHT now. That fact is, you're not aging, you're not, you're getting better. And my podcast, The Not Old Better Show is for you: "Talk About Better." And, the time is now!

This is basically a show where I talk to fun, informative, innovative, smart and talented authors, actors, scientists, film makers, and many others that those of us aged 55+ will be able to relate to, enjoy and laugh along with. The shows aren't too long, because I get to know our guests, so that you can, too. I spend time editing, and making sure the sound is great so you can hear and see everything the way it's meant to be. But the thing is, all that stuff is how it's supposed to be done, what matters most is that you're entertained and learn something. Convinced? If not – I've got over 100 shows now, and I'm certain you'll find something pleasing, plus lots more to come.
