The Out-Cast: EP.4 – Being a Gamer in Japan

Published: April 6, 2010, 7:46 a.m.

What on earth is the Out-Cast? Well, this was a series of podcasts I did back in 2010~2012 on videogames and videogame culture in Japan for an old website with a completely different crew. I'm republishing them here on DecultureShock, but for anyone who is interested, the original website can be found here. http://www.decultureshock.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/The-Out-Cast-ep04.mp3 Welcome to our fourth regular episode of the outcast. This one runs for a bit over three hours and we look in-depth at being a gamer in Japan and the PSP's 5th Birthday. Download below and please leave us any comments on how we can improve this podcast.
