Hey, what's up everyone? My name is S.E.J.

You're listening to another episode of Pokemon Podcast, specifically 157.

Even though this is a really cool episode, it's just me talking, there's no Travis or Will with us today.

Travis had exams over the weekend or some kind of school thing and Will was busy

or just in response to my text, the other one. I'm gonna go with that he was busy.

But I apologize that we don't have a full episode for you guys, but we are gonna cover some things

that regard Kickstarter backers and just some bit of news as well as a big setup for our next episode,

which I hope to make a big one.

But before we dive into news, I do want to say that Pokemon Podcast will be again at Midwest Gaming Classic.

This coming spring dates are, I think, confirmed, but I don't have the whole schedule planned out.

So if you're a long time listener or at least somewhat of a recent listener, we've been at Midwest Gaming Classic,

which takes place in Brookfield, Wisconsin. We've been a part, we've been going and being a part of Midwest Gaming Classic

for like the last five years now. I think this will be our fifth show.

Last year we partnered with Nintendo and they shared a room with us and they had a bunch of DSs and a bunch of giveaways.

Last year they will be returning to partner with us again this year at Midwest Gaming Classic.

So we will again share a room with Nintendo, which is very, very cool.

They're pretty awesome guys. Same team as last year.

But if you've never been to the Midwest Gaming Classic, what it is is it's a, it's the biggest gaming convention in the Midwest.

We don't have a lot gaming specific, but it takes place in the Sheraton hotel and there is a bunch of open pinball games, open tournaments, Mario Kart 64, Quake, Halo,

Call of Duty, Smash Brothers, all that other stuff. There's a bunch of tournaments. I think they're all free now actually.

A bunch of open pinball. I said that there's a huge vendor hall that has a bunch of old stuff. So if you're looking for old games or a Nintendo 64, Sega Saturn, they usually have those for sale.
