Apologies in advance, but allergies had Tyler and I in a chokehold. Him the sniffles and I the drowsy medicine, but we powered through. New Pokemon Snap has a mixed reception and maybe that's because new players don't really know what Pokemon Snap is. Nintendo said they'll pursue animation projects beyond the Mario movie, which got us thinking: What IPs could pull that off? Miitopia demo, our favorite comfort games, and I finally saw the Sonic movie....so we talked about it again. *Timestam...

Tyler really doesn't want 3rd party exclusives on a $400 console. I don't blame him. Pyra/Mythra are now officially in Smash Brothers and good golly they are fun to use. Nintendo Switch Pro rumors are heating up, including that some 3rd and maybe even 1st party exclusives may hit the system AND that it's a matter of when, not if it gets announced.

February 16, 2021 05:00 - 1 hour - 107 MB

From this day forward, Mario is tolerating 0% of the Bowser family shenanigans. Bowsers Fury is an incredible 3D Mario experience and is worth the go for old and new players. Nintendo freshened up some trademarks on old Zelda titles which leads us to believe a 3D Collection is on the horizon (yuck). Post Malone is the main event for a Pokemon virtual concert and he cost so much that they won't be making anymore Pokemon games, or good ones at least. We finished with an incredibly unprepared c...

Netflix mentioned a live action Zelda series and Nintendo heads sunk that ship instantly, along with claymation Starfox. But hey, Sonic Prime! We were a little low on content this week, so we dove into some Marvel TV shows conversation.  Thank you all for 4k listens! It really is ...

Season 2 Episode 25: The Nintendo Switch is a Successful Console

February 02, 2021 05:00 - 1 hour - 98.4 MB

And 79.87 million people agree. Wandavision is awesome and normies don't like it. Bowsers Fury takes 6 hours to beat but it'll be a fun 6 hours. Festivale hits Animal Crossing: New Horizons and all we know is that a giant peacock is hosting it so that's pretty cool. Q1 for Nintendos Financial year draws to a close and we get an updated look at hardware and software numbers. Also, people are saying Smash Ultimate underachieved....ha. Finally, what is the best gateway game to introduce a gamin...

Season 2 Episode 24: Which Fire Emblem Characters Would We Cut From Smash and What Happened on Mt. Silver?

January 26, 2021 05:00 - 1 hour - 95.7 MB

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is the best selling, and best Musou/Dynasty Warriors game ever. It's been one year since Byleth in Smash (#HoesMad) so we discussed how many representatives should Fire Emblem have and who would we cut. A website ranked Pokemon Sw/Sh characters, our podcast friend Brock asked us some questions, and what happened on Mt. Silver? Did it happen? Who won? Was there even a battle? And port Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Apex Legends to the Switch please. *Timestamps* ...

Season 2 Episode 23: We Correctly Tiered All 24 Starter Pokemon

January 19, 2021 05:00 - 1 hour - 104 MB

Bowser is on steroids and we kept mistaking Sunshine for Odyssey (sorry Sunshine fans). New Pokemon Snap looks amazing and it will be the game that gets Nintendo out of bankruptcy, as Tyler put it. Pokemon Diamond and Pearl remake rumors are a blaze which leads us to believe they won't actually happen. To close we told you why Chikorita is actually the best starter. Also, wouldn't Lets Go Sinnoh be funny? *Timestamps* 0:00 - Introduction and Advertisement 4:31 - Super Mario 3D World + Bow...

Season 2 Episode 22: RIP Nintendo Directs (2011-2021)

January 12, 2021 05:00 - 1 hour - 87.7 MB

Nintendo Directs are dead (not really, but we think they are!). With so much expected of everyone's favorite Japanese game company this year, we all wonder how we'll get the information we are starving for. Maybe Nintendo Directs, maybe random video drops, Tik Tok? We were wondering, so we even read a Nintendo Life soapbox on it! A demo came out. That is always cool. And finally, shoutout dataminers for getting some Nintendo Switch Pro (or Nova or Plus) details! 0:00 - Advertisement/Introduct...
