He said "RJS is a Nintendo staple for news. I've been listening to Bill for well over a year deliver constant up-to-date Nintendo news and all that time I've never been disappointed. Supported by a great community and speaking with an open mind, Bill dishes out the headlines three times a week. There are many Nintendo podcasts out there but very few are solo and updated three times a week with such consistency. I love finding out about everything going on with Nintendo from Bill's perspective. If it took you til the end of this review to make up your mind, you're a lost soul at sea and Bill is the burning beacon."
