1:37
later for now. Let's start off with our thoughts.
1:40
On the February twenty twenty three
1:42
Nintendo Direct. Andy
1:44
Cortez, I wanna start with you. What
1:46
did you think overall and what review score
1:49
would you give it on the kind of funny scale?
1:51
Oh, this is tough, man. Because I think it started
1:54
off strong and then just got really,
1:56
really, like, down on the dumps, and it became
1:58
a disappointment for a good while there.
2:00
The shadow drop of Metroid, I think, is phenomenal.
2:04
Hickman looks dope. Of course, ending
2:06
with Zelda looks great. All the Game
2:08
Boy games being available. Can't
2:10
wait to get back to Oracle of ages and season
2:12
for the first time since I was little baby
2:14
boy. I would give this a
2:17
I would give this a three out of five.
2:20
I think that they dove in good. Yeah.
2:22
Like, yeah, it's it's it's serviceable. think
2:24
it's serviceable. Hey. Yeah. It's
2:25
fun. It's fun.
2:27
It's all good. Gregory. It's
2:29
okay. Right? Isn't three out of five okay? I
2:31
understand. Thank you. Just make sure. Just make sure
2:33
I was wrong. I'm right there with Andy. I
2:35
give it AA3 out of five. I think
2:38
I thought the first thirty minutes were
2:40
rough and not. Like, you know, I don't even gotta put
2:42
out your names. You gotta do much stuff. You gotta you gotta But there
2:44
was a lot of stuff that I did not care about,
2:46
and so I'm coming off of that perspective. But then once
2:49
we got to the gay boy announcements for
2:51
a switch online, I thought we were off for the races and had
2:53
Solid finish had some cool stuff in there. Obviously,
2:55
you know, Metroid coming out huge.
2:58
Advanced Wars getting updates huge. Oh, these
3:00
Game Boy stuff's great. And then, obviously,
3:02
having solved, then there's gonna be
3:04
one, you know, more Mario cars. That's cool.
3:06
It was fine. It was okay.
3:08
Bless you. I wanna give it a two out of
3:10
five. When I saw what's going through, I was
3:12
highlight for bad. Yeah. I was highlighting the
3:14
things that stuck out to me, and I only highlighted
3:16
four things. Those were the Game Boy games
3:18
coming to Nintendo Switch online. The Game Boy advanced
3:20
games coming to Nintendo Switch online. Metroid
3:23
prime remastered and then the Zelda two is the
3:25
kingdom trailer. Three out of four of those
3:27
things are old content, you
3:29
know, making their way to the switch. And I think
3:31
for me, I need a lot more new stuff I
3:33
need a lot more surprises. I think the Zelda trailer
3:35
was really awesome, but Zelda is something
3:37
that we've gotten a lot of over the years and I
3:39
expect that to be awesome. The Pinkman
3:42
four trailer, I thought was fine. I'm not a Pinkman
3:44
person, and that trailer didn't sell me on
3:46
becoming a Pinkman person. They had
3:48
the xenoblade expansion early on as well. And, like,
3:50
that's another thing where I'm not as easily a person.
3:52
There's a lot of people that aren't as easily people. Right? And I
3:54
think, you know, you go down the list and there's
3:56
a lot of stuff in this direct that we're either
3:59
updates on games that are speaking to
4:01
sort of niche audiences. And then games
4:03
that I just don't think have enough pop. Right? It's
4:05
like how much how much time do we really need to spend on
4:07
fashion dreamer? Like, why wasn't that part of a montage.
4:09
Dead cells turn to castlevania is cool, but we've
4:11
known about that. Tron Identity is
4:13
cool. But, again, we've known about that. I think for me, I
4:15
needed a lot more. You can play
4:18
I'll check out the strong game. Yeah. You know, I'm not a strong person,
4:20
but I do, like, my my bithone. I got to help reveal that
4:22
game actually. So I really wanna check that that
4:24
game out. But All in all, I think I wanted
4:26
more from it. Shout out to the Donut Gamescast
4:29
that has me
4:30
curious. I don't know if I would say that had the best showing,
4:32
but it's one that I'm still curious to check out when
4:34
that comes out. So overall, two out of five for
4:36
me. I am higher than you guys.
4:38
I would give it a four out of five. I
4:40
can't give it a five because fives for
4:42
me need like out of left field didn't
4:44
see that coming and I'm wowed and can't wait for a moment.
4:46
This didn't have that, but this did
4:48
what I expect from a direct what I'm looking for
4:50
from a direct, which is answering questions that I
4:52
have. And a lot of the questions
4:55
I have were release date based. And now we got release dates
4:57
for Pikman. We got release dates for advance wars.
4:59
We have a confirmed release date for Zelda that
5:01
I now actually believe in things that they're
5:03
gonna actually hit. Other dates
5:05
for some of the smaller titles that we've
5:08
heard before, but like seeing Trinidad return
5:10
to Pennsylvania and the
5:12
Disney illusion. These are things that we've only seen,
5:14
like, once or twice or once, really,
5:16
this is the second time for, I think, all of those.
5:19
So that's cool. And I do love
5:21
the focus on the expansion
5:23
passes for these games that might not
5:25
be even for me, but spend for a xenoblade
5:28
and for splatoon. It's like it's good that Nintendo
5:30
is supporting really, really high quality
5:32
Gamescast people out there love that are just
5:34
as valid as Mario's and Zelda's and all that
5:36
stuff. On top of that, we got Metroid Prime.
5:38
Today, a shadow drop for a game that we've been waiting
5:40
for forever could not be more excited for
5:43
that. Unless you're right, it is a lot of old games. But
5:45
at this point, the switch has become the greatest
5:47
play place to legally play old games.
5:49
The amount of HD collections and remasters.
5:51
I love the trend of getting a lot of DS games.
5:54
There was two or three shown in the
5:56
showcase of DS collections or DS remasters.
5:58
And the DS is a system that will
6:01
not be preserved properly unless games reported.
6:03
Like, that game with the system was weird, so the
6:05
games had to be designed with two screens in
6:07
mind. If people do not play it, those games are
6:09
gonna be unplayable at a certain point.
6:11
So I do think it's cool that they're we're moving
6:13
to that that era. And I did
6:15
not expect to see Game Boy, Game Boy Advance. That seems
6:18
like something that we all want, and we all, like, expect
6:20
that, oh, it'd be cool if they did it. They fucking did
6:22
it. The lineup looks great. Getting a bunch of them
6:24
today I think is cool. Confirmed oracle
6:26
of ages and seasons like that is the type of stuff
6:28
that I'm looking for. No Pokemon. Definitely a bummer
6:30
on both the Game Boy and advanced side. Hopefully,
6:33
they're holding on to that and gonna release it at some
6:35
point soon, especially with the 3DSE
6:37
shop coming to a close next month.
6:40
The amount of games that they had in
6:42
this I thought was, like, really impressive in
6:45
terms of things like the Catamory
6:47
Dynasty and Octavout Travel, a lot of
6:49
updates on what we know we're coming, but then a ton of
6:51
cool games like Sea of Stars and Omega
6:53
Strikers and things that we didn't I didn't
6:55
know about OmegaStriker's, but it looks like a fun
6:57
time. But I do think overall,
7:00
yes, this is missing the crazy
7:02
big announcements of things I was looking for like
7:04
Mario, which I expect we're gonna get at some
7:06
point. But
7:08
with every passing Nintendo Direct, it
7:10
makes my questions get even more and more
7:13
confirmed of, like, what is Nintendo EAD up
7:15
to? What is Greta's up to? What is the team
7:17
behind Mario Kart up to? What is
7:19
the team behind Louisa's mansion up to? What
7:21
is the the sports team up
7:23
to? We're gonna get those answers at some point.
7:25
We just have to. Retro. Been working
7:27
on Metro Prime four for the Zelda ports. I
7:29
think met where the Zelda ports, we're gonna get
7:31
them. With Metroid Prime four or with the
7:33
Metroid Prime remaster, we're close
7:35
to the never to Prime This we've always said that
7:38
there has to be enough of a gap between
7:40
the release of the remaster and the new one
7:42
to come out. I think them dropping
7:45
it fit digitally today and physically later is another
7:47
important thing to point out in the future when we're trying to
7:49
predict how Nintendo might announce games
7:52
or what they will or won't do. Anyway,
7:54
I thought this was a a great Nintendo
7:56
Direct, not my favorite of all time by any means,
7:59
but a few genuine surprises in there even
8:01
on smaller scale like Samba Day and Miko.
8:03
Sure. Why the fuck
8:04
not? I'm excited for to play that for a weekend.
8:06
I was very impressed by how they went about
8:08
the Game Boy and Game Boy advance stuff where
8:10
I'm a big entity for fan. You know, I talk about all
8:12
the time. When Nintendo dropped the entity for
8:14
for the Nintendo Switch online plus expansion
8:17
pack, I feel like the messing around that
8:19
and the marketing around that and how they packaged it was filled
8:21
with a lot of disappointment and weird
8:23
Nintendo decisions. This was pretty
8:25
flawless. I feel like in terms of how they how
8:27
they pack did, of course, like it'd be cool if it was Pokemon and other
8:29
games in there as well. But I think that the
8:31
games that they included feel a bit more
8:34
above and beyond than what we usually get in the first
8:36
lineup of one of these devices. And so when you're
8:38
talking about the Game Boy and Game Boy Color,
8:40
right, you're talking about Tetris to Mario land two, Linx
8:42
awakening, Mario's quest, Game and Watch Galleria
8:45
two alone in the dark, the new nightmare which of course
8:47
is gonna throw some random games in there. Metroid
8:50
two, Wario Land three, and then also Kirby Stream
8:52
Lane. And then we talk about Gameplay Advance. You're talking about
8:54
Super Mario Advanced four, which is Super Mario three,
8:56
WarioWare, Kiryu Kiryu, which
8:58
is actually a pretty fun game. I don't know how many people are
9:00
familiar with that
9:01
game. I don't know why I'm familiar game, but
9:02
It was a Kirby version of it at some point.
9:04
Maybe I check that one out because I was
9:06
like an niche. Io game or something. As soon as I saw
9:08
it, I was like, I played a lot of that game and maybe
9:10
I had it edit on advanced.
9:12
I just forgot about it. But, yeah, like,
9:14
you know, that's cool Mario Kart, Mario and Luigi's
9:16
superstar saga, manage cap. And those are all out
9:19
later today. That's a pretty good lineup
9:21
and it also leaves room for a lot
9:23
more stuff to come through. Right? They had Golden Sun
9:25
coming out later. I know there's a lot of people that are big fans
9:27
of of Golden Sun. Yeah. So I do wanna commend that because
9:29
I think in terms of how they usually roll that
9:31
stuff out, I'm always I'm
9:33
expecting usually the worst when it comes to Nintendo
9:36
and them looking at their legacy bring it
9:38
forward. And I think they did a pretty good job with the Game Boy
9:40
stuff. I I think my biggest disappointment
9:42
in this showcase is when
9:44
I hear that there's gonna be a forty minute
9:47
plus thing. Tim,
9:50
you kind of praised the amount of things that we
9:52
saw, the variety of things that we saw. I think
9:54
that's to this this showcase is detriment. I
9:56
think if they would have shown less
9:59
of those smaller titles and
10:01
just longer segments on whatever
10:03
Zelda is, whatever Metroid Prime
10:06
remastered is. If we spent more time on
10:08
those bigger marquee titles, I think I would have been
10:10
more positive on it. I just think
10:12
that when we hear, like, again, forty plus
10:14
minutes, that seems like holy shit. They're really
10:16
gonna bring the heat with this one. And
10:18
unfortunately, it was a lot of, like, kind of middleware
10:21
for me. The yeah.
10:24
Spend I I would say spend more time on on
10:26
the Game Boy collection as well.
10:28
Give more time to advance or even though
10:30
we've seen enough of it, it's just like that's still
10:32
something you can do a bit of a deeper dive on.
10:35
When I see deep dives on whatever the bayonetta
10:37
game is and and like blessing mentioned
10:39
the fashion game, it's like we don't we don't
10:41
need longer segment here.
10:43
You can just show off a little bit of a of
10:45
a trailer here. But, yeah, I think that the I
10:47
think the amount of games was to this showcase
10:49
detriment. I I'd say spend more time
10:51
on the bigger
10:52
titles. CSRs. Holy shit. That game looks
10:54
really damn good. On the Nintendo eShop,
10:56
it looks like Zelda Tears the Kingdom is back up
10:58
and it is sixty nine dollars and ninety nine
11:00
cents. Fucking hell. Fucking hell.
11:03
It looks fucking awesome though, man. Like, ending with that,
11:05
like, I I'm I can't wait to play
11:07
that game. I love how dark it looks. I love how
11:10
epic the entire thing is, like, both the score,
11:12
just the presentation. And, like, this what
11:14
we're seeing right now on the screen with these, like,
11:16
creatures flying around in a in a dark storm. Like,
11:18
it reminds me of some of my favorite moments from
11:21
Twilight Princess. And Zelda has
11:23
never been afraid to, like, kind of flirt
11:25
with the dark side of things and and kinda be
11:27
a little scary at moments. And
11:29
this looks like they're really tripling down on that,
11:31
you know, from an ocarina to majora's mask
11:34
type
11:34
vibe, but taking the breath of the wild to this
11:36
I think, is extremely exciting.
11:38
Canon being voiced. It
11:40
sounds like I assume that's Canon. It's that it was
11:42
a evil voice. And people which I were pointing out that they
11:44
think it's Matt Mercer, which I don't know if we have
11:45
did sound like bad person to me. That's who
11:47
I initially thought of, but I don't have any.
11:49
Also,
11:49
shout out to what
11:50
I assume is that a three headed dragon right
11:52
there on the bridge. Looks dope. The three
11:54
headed dragon to you. Can you What it looks like? And
11:56
and yeah. I I needed an answer on that because that
11:58
sounds dope as
11:59
fuck. Oh,
12:01
shit. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I love I
12:03
love some of the news that we're saying. I love the big it
12:05
looked like one of those bosses that you just find out in
12:07
the wild rare, but it was, like, made of of a bunch of,
12:09
like, blocks. Like, the weird kind of, like,
12:12
construction --
12:13
Yeah. -- thing that was going on. It looks like the the kind
12:15
of, like, the sheikah technology. So I was
12:17
saying kinda I have I have
12:19
expected the
12:19
narrator, I guess, of that scan in his voice
12:22
to say, the lonesome dungheter.
12:24
I
12:24
just Oh, yeah. With this weird sort of
12:26
intro. This game looks fucking great.
12:28
Again, it's just a crime that
12:31
for seventy
12:31
dollars, you're gonna be getting, you know, two dollars
12:33
per frame. This is
12:35
one of the things I'm for sure gonna watch over and over again
12:37
just to see the different tools and stuff they're using. Of
12:40
course, when I think breath while, think of the Shigaslee
12:42
and all the tools that really
12:45
made that game feel so, like,
12:47
in the moment in terms of Oh man, I got the
12:50
my magnet tool. I got my bombs. I got, like, the
12:52
freeze time thing. Right? Like, they're
12:54
showing off a bit more of what whatever the Sheikah
12:56
slate in this game is. Some more of those
12:58
tools. Zero. And those like, this thing right here
13:01
where it looks like you are you are pushing the things forward.
13:03
That might be another magnet tool, but Yeah.
13:06
Like, I I can't wait to rewatch this to
13:08
to check that stuff
13:08
out. Just yesterday, I was rewatching
13:10
the breath of the wild launch
13:13
trailer. That they ended the Nintendo Switch
13:15
presentation in twenty seventeen with,
13:17
which is I think one of not the greatest video
13:19
game trailer of all time. And watching this,
13:21
it it really is reminiscent of
13:23
that. I think they're trying to evoke some of
13:25
that. It's like a apple, like, more mean.
13:27
Does that mean is that mean? Is that is that one well,
13:29
that one was like seems more sinister. Here yet.
13:31
Yeah. Yeah. Because that that breath of loud
13:34
one from the the one you're that you're talking about, Tim,
13:36
was more, like, we there's, like, a lot
13:38
of loss and a little bit of hopelessness, but it
13:40
was also, like, you know, Zelda being like, you
13:42
know, Link, we gotta save the world. And this is
13:44
very much seemingly gain and being like
13:46
fucking kill
13:47
them. And I'm all about that. That's that's
13:49
a cool juxtaposition. These
13:51
vehicles that we're seeing in the open field,
13:54
does it kinda seem like you
13:56
are customizing them and building them however you
13:58
want? Or do you think There's a car
14:00
look
14:01
like a big, like, flat thing up in the exterior.
14:03
Yeah. It looked like kind of like a modular
14:06
thing where you could kind of build
14:08
the vehicle however you want as opposed to, like,
14:10
hit this button to make the vehicle. It seemed
14:12
like it was put together in a way that you
14:14
could kinda
14:15
say, have a wheel here, have a wheel here,
14:17
maybe make a tricycle if you want. That's
14:19
interesting because I I you know, game design's
14:21
always so funny where they they spend years
14:23
making a comes out, and then people
14:25
play it. But then there's that the long tail of it,
14:27
of the people that are, like, really getting into
14:29
it, like, trying to break the Gamescast breath of the
14:31
wild being so physics based. We saw so many
14:34
cool so much cool evidence
14:36
of that. And people
14:38
making vehicles themselves in breath of the wild,
14:40
or it's combining different rocks and stuff and making
14:42
it go was like so cool to watch the YouTube
14:44
videos of and all the Twitter shit. And
14:46
then to have the DLC for Breath of Wild come out
14:48

All new lights. I like that too.
17:04
Although there's a flying vehicle too. Right? And I'm
17:06
showing more of the word to Cali. I still have so many questions
17:08
about that. Honestly,
17:09
I don't like goblin. Pitten Spider Man. Yeah. Like,
17:11
it looks like Like, he's like the glass ratter
17:13
man. Yeah. mean, he doesn't have bombs that he can
17:15
drop them. Yeah. So,
17:16
yeah, at least.
17:17
He's fighting a great
17:18
goblin a human man on a fucking on
17:20
a big building in New York. Well, yeah. Like, I honestly
17:22
don't even want the answers until I have the game in my hands.
17:24
Like, that's the thing is, get nervous more where we get
17:26
these trailers
17:27
of, alright, don't show too much. Don't show too much. And
17:29
they're doing a great job of not showing too much because
17:31
I still have all these questions. don't believe
17:33
this Who is this? We'll never know until
17:35
we play the game.
17:36
That's Lisa. Isn't
17:37
it? So I'll discuss
17:39
it, Lisa.
17:41
And looking for my cousin Zelda,
17:44
but the
17:44
mad stories and the I did really
17:47
like the the final shot. What
17:49
seems to be Lincoln Zelda, like, reaching out for
17:51
each other. Yeah. It just looks hype, man.
17:53
There's just excitement to this. And it it does
17:56
in a lot of ways now, like this kinda
17:58
feels like the end of the Arab switch. Right?
18:00
Then committing to this May date, like,
18:02
I do think with the games they talked about today,
18:04
we're gearing up to the end. And this this
18:06
is gonna be an a bookend of Zelda
18:09
titles that are potentially gonna be too
18:12
Games of the
18:12
generation, games of all time, all of that. It's
18:14
I think that's really exciting. Yeah.
18:18
Great. What else do you wanna talk about? You
18:20
know, I was we mentioned it heads there,
18:22
but, like, harmony, the donut game. That
18:24
came out of that field. Wasn't expecting a
18:27
don't nod game today, and then it wasn't expected to
18:29
be, you know, exclusive
18:31
for Switch or whatever at least.
18:32
Coming out this June. And then, of course, the art stopping
18:34
far different
18:35
than anything we've seen from them when you talk about life a strange
18:37
turn in their other Like, I think that would
18:39
serve them well having this more animated style.
18:41
Hopefully, turn the game faster, but then also give it
18:43
a different a vibe to what you're doing in it.
18:46
Right? They talked about having your supernatural ability,
18:48
precognition there, see the future. That sounds
18:50
awesome. I you know, that gets me excited. Somebody
18:52
joked, of
18:52
course, there is a crying woman in the trailer, so Greg's in.
18:54
It's true. No.
18:56
Not is a narrative. They make narrative games.
18:58
love narrative games. I'm interested
19:00
to see what this is. And if it's a narrative game that
19:02
plays. Like, I'm watching a really good cartoon,
19:04
like, invincible, like
19:05
we're talking
19:05
about. Then fuck, yeah. Let's go see what's up in this world.
19:07
Yeah.
19:08
I'm right there. I'm right there. I'm right there with you too. That plus the
19:10
Lena Rain soundtrack is a thing
19:11
that got me in. Because, of course, like, we love don't
19:13
nod from Life Strange. And you would hope
19:15
that with this game, they're bringing a lot of that energy forward
19:17
with with a really cool animated RSR.
19:19
Right? With that plus the lane lane thing plus that looks
19:21
like a skill tree. I that's the time thing where there's Is
19:23
that the time being? Yeah. Dude. See the future.
19:26
It looks different. It being a c
19:28
the feature thing reminds you as well of life strange.
19:30
Right? Because in that game, you're controlling
19:32
time a bit. Sure. Well, as
19:34
well as,
19:35
like, the first thing that I know.
19:37
Well, I you know, I'm I'm curious to see if they're able
19:39
to pull off some similar stuff where in life strange
19:41
because of that power.
19:42
Right? You're able kinda rewind decisions and -- Yeah. --
19:44
take things back. You would hope that's what that skill tree
19:46
is. Right?
19:47
Yeah. Where it's like, okay. I went down this way and I see
19:49
this guy die, and I wanna go back the other way and see if
19:51
I could save him. That's
19:52
a little Haiti's vibes as
19:53
well. Yeah. So I thought too, right, but some of the characters
19:55
on there for sure. Gotcha. Superstein. I
19:57
I wanna say I would love to
19:59
see Metroid Red costume
20:02
DLC or, like, some sort of add on inside
20:04
of Metroid Prime remastered. Do
20:07
you like, is that something Nintendo often
20:09
does? Like, hey, we're bringing back this old game. We're
20:11
remastering it. Here's all this sort
20:13
of legacy stuff to go along with it to kind
20:15
of celebrate it as a franchise.
20:17
No. Not like that. Especially,
20:19
like, looking at what this is, it very much
20:21
seems like less a resident evil
20:23
two style remake and more of a
20:26
just straight up remaster because remember
20:28
the there was a remake of Metroid
20:31
Prime trilogy or one and two.
20:33
There were GameCube games, three was a wii Gamescast
20:35
out the Metrc Prime Trilogy on We with motion
20:37
controls --
20:38
Yeah. -- these are in Widescreen support. So
20:40
all these games team are, like, definitely in my,
20:42
like, these are my blind spots. I
20:44
did not have really any experience
20:47
with this era of
20:48
Gamescast, so I am super stoked to Yeah.
20:50
We should have like a GameCube, like, month
20:52
or like a year where we just go through Because I had the same thing
20:54
where didn't have a game
20:55
queue. Yeah. And I feel there's hell of game queue games that I
20:57
would love. I bought them nine queue twice. You
21:00
bought a game cube? I bought a game cube and then I
21:02
from a pawnshop and then I pawned it back because
21:04
I needed money. And then I bought another one from a pawnshop
21:06
because it was our It was a super smash bros and double
21:08
dash machine that we had and went back in the
21:10
day. I thought this is
21:12
about to be some kind of joke where I bought a game.
21:14
I got twice or whatever. Like, you die
21:16
twice, you
21:16
know. Oh, no. You die or you're here that's been for the last
21:18
time. No. I did the same thing with my PS three when I
21:20
was like, I I'm an Xbox guy, but I
21:22
haven't played uncharted or last a message that goes
21:25
up. You
21:25
guys are in for a treat with this one. Yeah. It it being
21:27
out today digitally, February twenty second
21:29
for this whole.
21:31
This get it's one of the it's a it's an all timer,
21:33
man. This is one of the first ten out of 10s
21:35
I played contemporarily, where
21:37
I was like, it came out. I was like, oh my
21:39
god. Video games can be so much more. It is very
21:41
much a Mario sixty four moment. I don't
21:43
know if that's going to translate. You know? It's
21:46
like, we have Mario Odyssey now. So don't
21:48
know if playing this is
21:50
for you guys having played so many similar
21:52
type
21:52
games. I don't know if it's gonna have the same type of appeal, but
21:54
something tells me it will. I don't know if you have the Mario Odyssey
21:57
of Metroid Prime though. Right? Like, there's not really
21:59
been a Metroid Prime to do Metroid Prime since Metroid
22:01
Prime.
22:01
True. They were, like, the first versus shooters
22:03
have evolved.
22:03
But even it's Bioshock, I think, is a good example
22:06
where it's, like, games that are like,
22:08
first person, but, like, it's and they are
22:10
shooters, but that's not necessarily the
22:12
focus of it. And so I do think that there's
22:14
that level. But metroid Prime, what it
22:16
really has going forward is the atmosphere. Like, you
22:18
literally will never hear somebody praising Metroid
22:21
Prime. I love when this happens. Metroid
22:23
Prime without mentioning the atmosphere fear,
22:25
the music, the just tone and vibe, and, like,
22:27
the desolate nature of it all. And
22:30
it's it's a little slower paced in some ways,
22:32
especially in the beginning, and as get the scanning
22:34
mechanics. But the version
22:37
dramatically improved the experience of
22:39
using motion controls. It is an example of game
22:41
that is enhanced by motion controls and then also
22:44
adding the dual stick controls I think is
22:46
gonna be really good for it as well. But really
22:48
excited and there's been a lot of
22:50
back and forth on, will it be just mission prime
22:52
one or begin the full trilogy? I've always kinda
22:54
leaned on it being the first and I'm excited
22:56
this is the way they're doing it because to
22:59
me, prime one is a ten out of ten, and then two
23:01
and three are really damn good games. Well, like,
23:03
they're not even in the same
23:04
league. Yeah.
23:04
How much was Skyward Sword? This might be a question
23:07
for for a chat. When the remaster came out.
23:09
I think
23:09
it was ten dollars less. think it was,
23:11
like, the e dollars. Because this is this
23:13
is thirty nine ninety nine on the on the US eshop.
23:16
And I there's not be a barrier question.
23:18
Did they add because I guess when they
23:19
added, like, a Mivo support or some shit to
23:21
Skyward to see if they did. But it was but
23:23
a lot of people weren't happy about it because I think it
23:26
it it gave you some
23:27
feature. Right? Like a fast travel or something like
23:29
that? Yeah. It added a fast travel
23:31
with, like, an exclusive amiibo
23:33
that you had to get or something like that, which is
23:35
really dumb. And
23:36
I guess they didn't talk they when they revealed that,
23:38
right, they talked about sixty some people are saying it. But
23:40
they they didn't talk about anything being added in terms
23:42
of content in the trailer, which makes me
23:44
think that is is straight
23:45
up. Pick it up. Pick it on switch.
23:48
That deal. Rendering looks a lot better. Like,
23:50
I think As much as I love Metroid
23:52
Red, I thought that there are several sequences
23:54
where, like, lighting just looked really kinda off
23:56
in places and Samus looked like,
23:59
her suit just felt weird in that world. Whatever
24:01
we've seen of this looks really damn good.
24:03
I think that, like, again, I'm saying
24:06
damn good for, like, whatever the Switch hardware can
24:08
put out. I think it looks really impressive. I'd
24:10
also just as as a non sequencer,
24:13
I'd like to imagine that, like, burdo, was
24:15
under contract negotiations with just holding out
24:17
to be in Mario
24:18
Kart. They finally came to agreement. They're
24:20
like Bertos here. They're really exciting stuff
24:22
getting more new courses in Mario Kart, I
24:24
know that that doesn't seem like the most exciting, like,
24:27
holy shit. This is the best direct ever type news,
24:29
but I didn't expect that. And Yoshi's on
24:31
stage with new Yoshi's Island music and the style
24:33
of Mario Kart, like, this is the type of shit that I
24:35
want. Support games that we love and continue
24:37
to do it and add new shit, even a decade damn
24:39
later. I think this was cool.
24:41
It weird
24:42
that we didn't get a date
24:43
because long
24:43
time we hear about a wave, they're like, and
24:45
it's coming out in, like, in a
24:47
long way or something. Yeah. Or something like that. So
24:49
I do do find it little weird. And especially,
24:51
because aren't they supposed to
24:54
what what wave is this? Is this wave four?
24:56
Four. Aren't we supposed to get
24:58
eight by the end of this year?
24:59
Mhmm. Okay. Brown, the falls
25:01
out to be recruited and birds. How about you?
25:04
Every other week, you're gonna get a
25:05
get a Mario card.
25:06
You need to train you. We can do is stream where I train you.
25:08
I
25:08
just don't know how like, I don't
25:09
get it. Never
25:11
break.
25:13
This is what say. You're never
25:15
getting Wirecarded or a nine. Wirecard nine is
25:17
not coming until the switch
25:18
too. Absolutely.
25:19
I mean Yeah. We've been saying that for, like, the less
25:22
I feel like I didn't say if you have been disagreeing,
25:24
but I'll say it again.
25:25
It's about that I'm disagreeing. I'm saying Nintendo
25:27
should put out a mark or not in the switch and make
25:29
a lot of fucking money. What's
25:31
better? The conversation we're having today on a
25:33
gives you What's
25:34
better than a million dollars. Very valuable. saying.
25:36
You have one thousand One seventy Like, your Mario
25:38
Kart eight sold fifty million as of this week.
25:40
You're telling me that Mario Kart nine won't sell
25:43
casually thirty, forty, seventy
25:45
million.
25:46
Like, come on. Gonna oh,
25:47
it'll sell that much on the Switch too. I'll
25:49
gross
25:50
all the first seventies. Like, I can't I'm
25:52
just, like, still really angry about that.
25:54
Like, that's it
25:55
should be higher. Thousand.
25:57
It's just fucking bullshit. Dude for, like,
25:59
n d. You're gonna
26:00
live in that game
26:01
for so long, though. It's just so fucking bullshit
26:03
that for a game this
26:05
late in a cycle to get a price increase.
26:07
It it makes no sense to me, dude,
26:10
especially when, like, what
26:12
are they trying to do? Fund the new hardware?
26:14
Like, they
26:15
wait. It's
26:16
just it's annoying to man. I'm so fucking
26:18
annoyed by this and bothered by it. I hate
26:20
it. I hate it.
26:22
Sure, man. A hundred and twenty two point five
26:25
million switches have been sold through.
26:27
They wanna get every dollar they can out
26:29
of everybody because they're a business understandably so.
26:31
How many Nintendo first party titles
26:34
do they have that are big this year or in the
26:36
future, especially if they're winding down. They gotta
26:38
get every less drop of juice out of there. How long did they
26:40
take to get going. I hear
26:41
you. Don't get me wrong. What's posted
26:42
knowing about it? I think it's, like, just doing the lesson
26:44
getting the most. Like, that's what it kinda feels
26:46
like with know that's
26:48
been the story and we're suckers and I'm gonna
26:51
buy it anyway because Nintendo only ever sends
26:53
one code. I
26:55
think that that goes back to the conversation. I mean,
26:57
Greg, we're having a bit earlier today where, you know,
26:59
Playstation did it. I think Xbox is doing it. I still never
27:01
confirmed that. But Playstation
27:03
waited until a console transition to
27:05
be like, alright, now we can justify it. Now we can
27:08
kinda get away with it. I think it feels
27:10
weird because Nintendo was doing this mid
27:12
toward, like, late switch generation, and
27:15
they are, like, behind
27:15
Understood. --
27:16
toggle. Toggle
27:17
that came out out of date already. Like, that's
27:19
I'm But when I the the way I've been thinking about
27:21
it today since our conversation more, I'm like, oh, man.
27:23
Yeah. Nintendo's fucking for
27:26
them, business wise, it's such a good decision
27:28
for them because you talk about attachment
27:30
rate. Right? Again, we talk about fifty million from our carte.
27:32
We're talking about forty million from animal crossing. We're talking
27:34
about an attachment rate that sometimes reach just
27:37
close to fifty percent. In terms of install
27:39
base. You start charging seventy
27:41
dollars for your games. Oh my
27:43
god. They're about to make Bank.
27:45
I mean, he's broke a while too. Like, I forget the
27:47
number off top of
27:48
my head, but I I wanna say it was, like, twenty.
27:50
That's a while. Then it's twenty something like that. Million,
27:52
which is absolutely wild.
27:54
Especially for a Zelda game. Zelda does
27:56
not sell like
27:57
that. But now it does. Yeah.
27:59
And you look at the switch and it's continued to do it.
28:01
So Yeah. Like, that's it's
28:03
wild that they're they're going forward. But,
28:05
I mean, I I expect this
28:07
game to be a ten. So -- Sure. -- that's where
28:09
we're going on. Yeah. But, like, it
28:12
and then Metroid Prime coming out of forty. I'm just
28:14
be real. I'm more surprised at that. Thought that
28:16
was gonna be sixty dollar for you. I'm pretty surprised. For
28:18
sure. Because it's an Nintendo. They don't give fuck
28:20
for all the reasons we're just saying.
28:22
Metroid primary master will be thirty
28:24
eight ninety nine in luck in six years.
28:28
There was a bunch of, like, little release dates
28:30
that were not even made a big deal, but I
28:33
think we've gotten really state before for the
28:36
Etrion Odyssey Origins collection,
28:38
which is June first. I don't think we got one for
28:40
a mega man battle network collection that we've heard
28:42
about before, but that's coming in April.
28:45
So looking at the Nintendo, they said that
28:47
this direct was gonna focus on the first and
28:50
the first half is now very fucking clear.
28:52
I think the biggest things that
28:54
we didn't hear about that we know we're going too
28:56
soon would be Pokemon stuff, but
28:58
Plus, now we're talking Pokemon days later this
29:00
month. I imagine they'll do it. Their own thing,
29:02
announced whatever the waves of Scarlet and Violet
29:04
DLC DLCR, as well as all the other
29:08
Pokemon things that they'd like to do, like sleep
29:10
or what we come up
29:11
with? Pokemon brown brown brown.
29:12
Yeah. Pokemon brown. It gave Pokemon due to
29:14
butter.
29:14
Yeah. Like, it helps your people. It's KFC.
29:17
This is the this is the kind of shit against on KQ.
29:19
I know you guys don't get that crazy on the stream.
29:21
No. No.
29:22
No. But yeah. I I literally
29:24
am utterly shocked that we're getting Game
29:26
Boy, that we're getting Game Boy today, good Game Boy
29:28
Lance. All of the good
29:30
stuff at once. Like,
29:31
you made you made joke about, like, them teasing
29:33
it out over five years that's what I expected too. Like,
29:35
here's all these games. And we'll slow and then it was just another all
29:37
up. All up. You yeah. You'll get to
29:39
pay the other ones on the Switch two or whatever. Yeah.
29:41
Yeah. And and, you know, bless us bringing
29:43
up earlier, like, the level of quality of
29:45
the games that they're they're launching with. And, yeah,
29:47
like, as a very, very excited
29:49
and proud owner of the Analog Pocket that I
29:51
use a lot. Like, I am now
29:53
pretty damn intimately familiar with the Game
29:55
Boy catalog and, like, they're not missing much
29:57
here. I didn't see donkey kong ninety four. That's
30:00
a big one. Mister
30:01
Martin Donkey
30:02
Kong ninety four before we get donkey kong
30:05
sixty four him. I'm throwing you through
30:06
Then he'll probably be able to play fantastic to get
30:08
Turn that behind upside down.
30:10
You know what I mean, Mary? Oh my god.
30:12
Do you think they've moved on fully from sixty
30:14
four plus? They're
30:15
like adding games to
30:16
it? We we got
30:17
Golden Eye
30:18
on there. Fuck you guys. No. This is We're still waiting
30:20
on They still make up NES games to add to that.
30:22
Make up. Yes. Those aren't real games.
30:25
We got Pokemon --
30:26
Table Babbles. -- like stadium real.
30:28
And stadium too. Google thing.
30:30
Yeah. And we're still waiting on Mario
30:32
Party three, I think. They just was this year.
30:34
Okay.
30:35
Yeah. So there's still a now in sixty four titles
30:37
that we don't have dates for. I'm
30:39
so excited to play Wario where when I get home.
30:41
I'm
30:41
gonna get home, man. Gonna be great. Give
30:43
me a Super Mario Bros. Deluxe.
30:47
That's so sad to say I could
30:49
think. And what a pretty not good
30:51
port of Mario one --
30:52
Yes. -- because it's port I play. That was my first
30:54
time playing to that game. Portland
30:57
Kevin in the chest says want perfect dark. I
31:00
do think at that at this point, we'll probably
31:02
get it.
31:02
Like, I think that now that the the wall's been
31:05
broken down somewhat. Yeah. forget
31:07
it's banjo on and it's throw a line.
31:09
Yes, it is. Okay. Yeah. I don't think you'll get I
31:11
don't think too. Not too. You'll probably get
31:13
perfect dark someday. Mhmm. But,
31:15
yeah, when you look through the the list of games announced,
31:17
like, you want I do appreciate that
31:20
we do get like Samba de domino,
31:22
party cent party central. Even though, like,
31:25
most of the time when they have that tier of game. It does
31:27
not speak to me. Yeah. Every now and then I feel like you do
31:29
get one where it's like, oh, shit. Alright. Cool.
31:31
I am. Yeah. Like, what was like, one of
31:33
the worry wears? I know more wear is a bigger deal.
31:35
Probably been somber dating me go. But, like, the last
31:37
Wario ware game. Right? Like, I felt like that game went and
31:40
I played that game and I was like, I was a fun time.
31:42
But it didn't set the world on fire. Right? Like, I
31:44
thought the game needs to. Exactly. And think they always
31:46
have a good handful of those games that that
31:48
come
31:49
through. And I think this direct Someday, Migos,
31:51
one of those. Yeah. No. This is gonna be
31:53
all Some of the Amigos is legitimately super
31:55
fun game. I don't know, like,
31:57
if it's going to be a major hit success,
32:00
but it's like, is as
32:02
good as super monkey ball. You know?
32:04
Oh, yeah. It's like really damn good. And again, this
32:06
goes back to the the point that I keep making that the
32:08
switch at this point six years into its life cycle.
32:10
Has so many amazing some of the
32:12
best ever exclusive Gamescast it is also
32:15
just becoming, if not already,
32:17
the best way to play old Gamescast,
32:19
like, the amount of collections on every single
32:21
system that you can play on the switch, whether it's Switch
32:24
online or these different separate
32:26
SKUs coming out, like, I think
32:28
it's, like, really really awesome. Yeah. And
32:30
to add to Somatomego, right? Like, I would put also put
32:32
Fainties of life in that camp. I will put a new
32:34
professor Layton game in that camp.
32:36
Right? Like, you had a lot of games that
32:38
are gonna speak to specific audiences
32:41
very loudly. And I think that's good
32:43
for those audiences and that's good for the variety
32:45
of the Switch. I still come back to
32:47
overall, when I look at this direct, you know,
32:50
to take it back to the top. Right? Like Andy was talking
32:52
about the first half of it. I think I
32:54
was still missing out on the first Right? Like, again, pigment forward
32:56
didn't speak to me. The Zoom based stuff didn't speak to me. And
32:58
the more we got into it into it through the first
33:00
half, the more was like, man, this might be worse.
33:02
Then the previous direct that we got, which
33:04
is like a hard bar to to to breakthrough.
33:07
But, again, when we got to the second
33:09
half, I think things really did pick up
33:11
from me. But I wish think the thing I wish
33:13
this direct did for me was paints a
33:16
more exciting picture of the year. That's for me
33:18
when I look at my switch, I think the main thing I'm gonna do on
33:20
that switch and it's probably for everybody. Right? Is zelda
33:22
tiers of the kingdom. But beyond that, beyond,
33:26
I don't know what else I'm picking up my switch
33:28
for? I mean, you see if stars is actually another
33:30
good one. Right? But I can play that I think my steam deck
33:32
if I wanted to
33:34
exclusively on the Switch, there's
33:36
not much that's calling out to me this
33:38
year. I need everybody to support the Zelda
33:40
Oracle need I
33:43
need the heads of Nintendo to see the numbers
33:46
just shoot out the fucking roof and be like,
33:48
and like, man, but he's We'll get this minimal
33:50
effort we put into putting these games on the switch, glad
33:52
we don't need to do anything and, like, remake them or
33:54
anything, you know? How you're saying something?
33:56
They have to be. We're gonna get a game
33:58
at some point from them, and I
34:00
think it's going to
34:01
be, at this point, linked to wake or linked to the
34:04
past, in the style. Which
34:06
I mean, while
34:09
they release Metroid during review season.
34:11
I'm so mad. It's always review season. I'm so
34:13
It's never gonna stop. Yeah. But we're in the thick of it.
34:15
There's always changes.
34:18
But, like, right now especially, you
34:20
know. You
34:22
got big boxes sitting out in the in the
34:25
studio right
34:25
now. We put the photos. You can say we have
34:27
PlayStation V or two out there. Why don't you break in Boston?
34:30
What the photos are awesome. No. They
34:32
exist.
34:32
believe you broke in Boston like that.
34:35
Delay Metroid Prime. I
34:37
mean, yeah, it is interesting to think about Metroid Prime four
34:39
at this point. And, like, where
34:41
does it land? Like, does it end up
34:44
coming out on the switch? Or do
34:46
they do a classic
34:48
Nintendo Zelda thing of it's cross
34:50
gen on both
34:51
consoles, which I mean, at this point, it's not even an internal
34:53
thing. It's like PlayStation did it. It's continuing.
34:55
I mean, they don't have and even speaking too
34:57
soon, but I don't think they'll have tiers the kingdom
34:59
to do that with. Certainly maybe there'll be a remaster
35:01
report, whatever they do. But
35:04
I wonder if I mean, that usually, I think they
35:06
would do do that with a Mario. A Metroid
35:08
seems a bit too niche to do that with,
35:10
but
35:11
I think they'll they'll do that with something -- Yeah.
35:13
-- and kinda cross cross
35:15
release.
35:18
No Mario game. Yeah.
35:20
No, Mario. I mean, we're gonna get a Mario
35:22
game.
35:22
Right? And we better Looking at the again
35:25
this year with the Nintendo World, with the Mario
35:27
movie coming out in April. The thing
35:30
about Mario is it doesn't need to be timed around
35:32
it. Like, I don't think anybody thought they're gonna release
35:34
it with the Mario movie, but like they
35:36
could just put out Mario game at any
35:38
moment and it'll sell just as well.
35:41
With them putting all their
35:43
their shit into Zelda in May.
35:45
It's like that's what I'm interested
35:47
in is the rest of this year for Nintendo
35:49
and looking at them how they've been in
35:52
the the past couple years. I don't know what that looks
35:54
like. I don't know that it's necessarily going to
35:56
I popped the fuck off, but
35:59
I don't know that it needs to when you have tears
36:01
of the kingdom. You know? Like, they're gonna come through.
36:03
And also, there's a shit a ton of games here that are gonna score
36:05
extremely high and speak loudly to
36:07
the people that are interested in playing
36:10
them. Like, Lakers has been waiting for PICKMAN for
36:12
a bazillion and a half year. I can't wait for I'm really
36:14
excited for Pinkman. It's been, like, so long since
36:16
I've got into that world. When it comes
36:18
to tears of the kingdom, like, This
36:20
better be the last of
36:21
us, Swan Song. This better be the
36:23
one that closes out the switch.
36:26
We go We got a couple more years with this thing.
36:28
Fuck gonna be with switch until twenty twenty. You
36:30
say
36:30
bad. Bad. True bro. Get you get used to it.
36:32
I'm gonna need I'm gonna need you all to teach me how to get
36:34
some games. So I'm busy. Alright? I need
36:36
to teach you
36:37
in. Get some Greg. No. No. Allegedly.
36:40
Allegedly. Some games.
36:41
Oh, yeah. I got you. You know what I mean? Allegedly.
36:44
I got like the alleged games with, like,
36:46
you know, alleged global illumination and sixty
36:48
frames per second and four
36:49
k. So, like, you know, give me, you know,
36:51
I mean,
36:52
the game. Because
36:52
we still need a little bit of time, Andy, to, like, lead
36:54
to your a keen to breathe, and then we can finally
36:56
get wind waker and twilight princess
36:58
on this fucking
36:59
console. You know? That'll
37:00
be twenty twenty six. Right? Yep. Yep. Yep.
37:02
WNDs, man.
37:04
I will say I I'm not surprised that we didn't see them
37:07
today. It it it felt too weird
37:09
of timing, especially with the hope that they
37:11
weren't delaying tiers of
37:13
the kingdom
37:14
to, like, talk about a
37:16
wait wait period.
37:18
Yeah. All of that. So Are we at point where,
37:20
like, it's just wait for the next anniversary of the next big
37:22
milestone. I mean, from what
37:24
You're not gonna do a happy thirty
37:26
eighth. Like, you're not gonna do a happy birthday.
37:28
From the Jeff Rob reports, and
37:30
this is from a year a half ago. So I don't know if he still
37:32
stands by
37:32
this, but I assume he does. He was talking about
37:35
them holding on to the Zelda ports.
37:37
No.
37:37
Fucking hold him to it. Hold his too.
37:39
The way look at the Jeff Brooks said this, and if you
37:41
decide, just fucking mine whenever he wants it, you
37:43
better go. But he was talking about how, like, Nintendo
37:45
was basically in between
37:48
figuring out where to release the Zelda
37:50
ports, where there wasn't tiers of the kingdom coming
37:52
out. Right? Like, they don't I don't think they wanted
37:54
them to
37:54
Everything seems weird. Jeff probably watched this correct
37:56
me if I'm wrong, but I think the idea was if
37:58
Zelda somehow shifted from this year to
38:01
next
38:01
year, then we we would see the Zelda ports.
38:03
But because we're getting towards the kingdom, they're gonna
38:05
hold off and wait until there's not a Zelda a big
38:07
Zelda coming out during the
38:08
year to the kingdom. I
38:09
wanna shout out sushi who says you guys are awesome,
38:11
Thanks for the react. Thank you. For watching.
38:13
Thank you, Susan. I make sure you're
38:14
using touch frames as well. When did touch
38:16
frames at? Yeah. Couple of days ago. Yeah.
38:18
What kind of funny games daily? Me and Bluster did
38:20
a bunch of predictions. We did. For
38:22
the Nintendo Direct. I'm gonna go through Pushing peace.
38:25
Let's go through and give some percentages on what we
38:27
thought was gonna happen. We're gonna embarrass us. Do
38:29
we see Well, we did we did okay. Do we
38:31
see a new mainline Mario game? Plus was at fifty
38:33
percent. I was at seventy five percent. We did
38:35
not. We did not. Do we see a new Mario
38:37
sports title? I said fifty percent plus seventy
38:39
percent.
38:40
It is seventy.
38:40
We did not. Does Metrc prime finally make
38:43
an appearance?
38:45
I
38:45
was at twenty five, you're at ten. Oh,
38:48
man. Liu. Sue Sayers, my
38:50
ass.
38:50
Do we get a Pigman four trailer? Hundred percent.
38:52
Ninety five percent. Oh, fucking. Got it. With the
38:54
release date.
38:55
You only said ninety five because you wanted to be different.
38:57
I didn't have to be different. Exactly. Will there
38:59
be any ports? I said a
39:01
hundred percent. Here we fucking go. Bless
39:03
us at sixty. Will any classic games
39:05
or consoles be out of the switch? We'd both set a
39:07
hundred percent. We fucking nailed it.
39:10
Is advanced wars reboot Camp finally coming out?
39:12
Will it be out now? I said yes and
39:14
no. And you said yes out shortly. We both
39:16
nailed it. Wow. Will we see any high profile
39:18
remasters, Zelda and Metroid? I said
39:20
yes. You said fifty percent. You need to bet.
39:22
I fucking nailed it. Do we get a Zelda
39:24
Tiers of the Kingdom Trailers? So how long is the
39:26
trailer? Let's set a hundred percent three minutes.
39:29
How long Well, how long time I'll check
39:31
it out. I'll figure it out.
39:32
And and also on that show, I said that the Beth
39:34
of Walden was three minutes. Were you watching yesterday?
39:36
Close to four. Close to four. Close to four. And I
39:38
did say that, like, I wanted a Zelda Tiers the Canadian
39:40
Trailers akin to that final breath of wild
39:42
trailer, which I would say that is, two eighteen Chadison.
39:44
Doing too? Too much. It's close
39:45
enough. I
39:48
seriously Fifty percent chance
39:51
of getting a Zelda
39:52
trailer, and we did get it. What's
39:54
something unexpected that you should think could
39:56
make an appearance, less of katana
39:58
zero -- Yeah. -- sequel or something. I
40:01
don't imagine it run down on me. And finally,
40:03
what we see see? What we
40:05
see hollow knight silk socks. Aah.
40:08
Plus the ten percent to
40:09
me, I don't know. Mhmm. I
40:11
I said -- Yeah. -- you had
40:13
a yes. -- just because I was hopeful for
40:15
keeping the faith. Keep in the faith. Yeah.
40:17
Yeah. So I honestly, looking
40:19
at this, it was barely in line with
40:21
what we're talking
40:22
about. And of course, not every single
40:24
thing goes. The biggest one for me is no Mario.
40:26
But even then I was saying it's like, I
40:28
was at the seventy five percent. I'm still seventy
40:30
five percent. We're gonna get AA2D or three d Mario
40:32
game this year. So just because it wasn't at this direct.
40:34
We're gonna get it at a
40:35
direct.
40:36
Was getting my next question for you is,
40:38
what is Nintendo's big
40:40
game for the
40:41
fall? Nintendo's proved
40:43
they don't need a big game for You're
40:44
gonna playing Pigman throughout the rest of the
40:46
year. I don't
40:47
know if I'm playing Pigman in July. Oh, no.
40:50
It's bullshit. Hi, listen. I played Pigman in
40:52
July.
40:53
I saw I saw this Pigman business right
40:55
there and grounded aided lunch. Alright.
40:57
You can go play grounded right now in the best deal in
40:59
gaming you can play tiny which also
41:01
set up with the PlayStation hoodie. That's I
41:03
play all sides of the field except in Nintendo. That's where
41:05
I
41:05
shit. I don't think I have any shit
41:07
in grounded. Have anything on pick being gonna
41:10
hell? I think it was so good, man. I think it
41:12
was fine. But also fucking pigment, they're only
41:14
at number four. Like, we got leaner and da
41:16
Vinci back there
41:17
building. You know what I mean? Good to make an amazing
41:19
fucking pigments for really quick, just
41:21
for updates. Game Boy, basic
41:24
Game Boy is on the Nintendo
41:26
Switch to online
41:27
basic. And then Game Boy advances
41:29
on
41:29
exciting features
41:31
alongside with Nintendo sixty four.
41:33
This is a heads up to everybody That's
41:35
great. I hate this company.
41:36
Right now in the
41:37
live chat, a guy named Brandon just went by and says
41:39
Greg looks like he just got back from his vasectomy
41:41
appointment. What
41:46
the fuck does that feel weird? Would
41:48
you it was okay. Weird. I put you in
41:51
a white What's this
41:51
question? Shoot. I don't get it. You got
41:54
it. Got it. You got it. Yes.
41:56
I don't know, pity. I don't understand. Was
41:58
it it?
41:58
SALTor, was it actually how you they dressed you with
42:00
this
42:01
call and
42:01
you Nick Gavo here, man. Did he get Greg or
42:03
what? You know what he means?
42:06
Yeah. After on the chat
42:08
was saying there's no way we get another
42:11
two d or three d Mario on the
42:13
the switch. I just wanna point out we haven't got a
42:15
single new two d Mario on the switch.
42:18
ByeStream. This should be like the first generation
42:20
a long time, that that would be the case. Like, I just don't
42:22
see that happening with how well those games sell.
42:25
And how comparatively they are much
42:27
lower stakes in terms of production and
42:29
everything. So I I think we're gonna
42:31
see it. I think that a ballgame we
42:34
don't necessarily need to have one. They don't always have
42:36
one, but I feel like the audio like some
42:38
audio. Right. Like Do you know we're getting Pokemon?
42:40
We're gonna get the The other thing is, like, is
42:43
I guess Pokemon DLC could count as a big game.
42:45
Because, yeah, I feel like usually it's either Pokemon or
42:47
there is something Nintendo. And I I know they I
42:49
don't know if they align it that way. I think
42:51
it is just happenstance that usually you get something
42:53
throughout the year from Nintendo. I guess there was that one
42:55
year that had animal crossing and paper
42:58
Mario, and I don't know if they had fall
43:00
game that
43:00
year. But I feel like usually they're they're
43:03
something. And I guess that could be Pokemon DLC.
43:05
But I feel like that'd be disappointing second half
43:07
of the year. I mean, I but there's also
43:09
the idea of other pomegranates and other legends.
43:12
At any moment, they can announce it and comes out.
43:14
You know? And I when when at at
43:16
any moment, it is probably gonna be in this month.
43:18
We'll get a better idea of what this year and
43:20
maybe even a a little bit of next year looks like
43:23
