Speaker 1: It's the internet. You're busy. Let's do this, and by this,
let me finish this poll. Heads Should they be bigger?
Should be smaller? All right, I'm starting that poll right now.
Go ahead.
Speaker 2: Chat In general, I think heads are just too small.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Game That's Decides podcast. This is the
podcast where we decide everything about the world of games,
so you never have to think for yourself. I'm your
host Jeff Grubb, and with me is Mike Manati. In
today's episode, Samus goes full Jedi slash sy op switch
to direct predictions, and we are going to stop talking
about balls eventually. One day. I didn't write that. You know,
I can't control what the producer does, but I didn't
say that. Mike Minatti, how are you doing?
Speaker 2: Doing pretty good? Jeff, My my guardians. They won their
first game. It was a pretty interesting one, but yeah,
it was great. I had a lot of fun watching
baseball again. I'm just so happy it's back. I don't
know if anything could be more fun than than watching
some early baseball long as.
Speaker 3: Jack and Off in a rainforest cafe.
Speaker 1: Dan, you gotta stop just telling us about your proclivities.
Him and his proclibic' fun.
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, that's gross. Yeah yeah, Baseball backs,
that's nice. How are you doing?
Speaker 1: The Tigers are losing to the Dodgers, but I expected
them to lose this game and it's only four to
three in the seventh, so oh no. Now they're showing
a bunch of like small Asian children rooting for Shoheo Tani,
and I kind of want them to win. They look
so cute and they're like, they're having such a good time,
you can't enjoy yourselves. All right, I'm gonna pause that.
There we go, Mike Minati, I am doing pretty well otherwise.
I don't know, you know, I'm I'm just having fun
at work these days. It's been it's fun to do
cool stuff. And we had a good time with Smoe
Joe yesterday. That episode went up today.
Speaker 2: Joe cut a promo on me yes, about grapes, so
that must have been.
Speaker 1: Eating grapes and being a Disney Well, he cut a
promo on all Disney adults.
Speaker 2: But you were definitely the focus of that hire. That
was definitely the primary target. Who knows he was roping
in other wrestling Disney adults, of which there are a
few notable examples.
Speaker 1: Maybe, but you were the one closest to him in
that moment. It was a good time. But yeah, like
I said, having a good time at work, you know,
then get done with work today. It's like, okay, busy night,
let's do the podcast. I watched Columbos. We could do
Columbos tonight. We got two podcasts yet to do tonight.
But also like switch stuff is happening and we had
to switch direct, Switch to Direct, that's happening next week.
So yeah, I'm just in a good mood.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, you know, it's been fun. I think we
had a great talkover on the Switch one Direct today.
The voicemailed dump Truck was a ton of fun. The
first episode of Obergrub was incredible, maybe one of the
best episodes of Bike Club yet. So yeah, it feels
like we're doing good stuff. Jeff, I will say, it
has been very busy, and it is storrying to get
to me a little bit. Oh I've been I haven't
been able to just turn off in a while. Here.
Speaker 1: I feel definitely yes, especially when it's like if you
have anything going on on the weekends, it's oh boy, Okay,
I was gonna take some Jeff time, but that doesn't exist.
So yeah, for sure, we're gonna have to figure out
some balance there. But you got you got Disney to
look forward to. May is not that far away.
Speaker 2: I sure too, and I gotta get walking. I got
to get into that Disney shape pretty desperately, so got
to start doing that for sure. Yeah. Yeah, I'm looking
forward to that big time, thinking about it constantly. Oh
that'd be nice, so so nice having that little tease
of being in Orlando a couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: Yeah, little go little just yeah, a little Disney before
your Disney. Well, the little parks before your Disney. Yep,
I h it was going to Oh yeah, that reminded
me because you are abandoning our children by doing this.
I will not be doing that. I'm gonna be going
to Pax East. Kind of had a meeting about that today.
We're figuring some stuff out. Don't expect anything like a major,
uh outside of Pax East event or anything like that,
but we might have an opportunity to say hi to
some people. I will definitely have a couple of panels.
I'll be on just one of them, and then we'll
do some other fun stuff. But we'll be in Boston
that weekend and I'm looking forward to seeing everybody. It's
been a minute since I've been to an event, so
looking forward to that. It's gonna because that'll be like
after switch to Direct and before switch to is probably
I mean, I guess maybe it could be out in May,
but it doesn't feel that way after all these rumors,
so we'll be like everyone will be like, that'll be
on their mind, and Nintendo could even be there. That
would be fun to see.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I am, I'm gonna miss it. I like Pax
a lot of, like Pax East a lot of like
Boston a lot. So it's you know, it's a bit
of a bummer. Back when I, you know, we were
talking about this May Disney trip, I was like, well,
Pax East is in March, like it is last year,
it won't be an issue. And then they change that,
so my bad. But you'll all have a great time
without me, I'm sure.
Speaker 1: Do they always do it on Easter weekend? I guess
I think they do?
Speaker 2: Is that what Easter Wigan's on in May?
Speaker 1: Is it? I thought it was over. I thought there
was a really late Easter this year.
Speaker 2: I don't know. Look, there's sometimes our March easters. There's
no May easters, are there?
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I don't know. I thought it was a
late Eastern and then well listen he then hey, that
that would mean it. I would know better because they
stole their timing from it from Pagans.
Speaker 2: Right first, it's a it's a late it's a late easter.
It's on April twentieth.
Speaker 1: Okay, so they just wanted to share it with the potheads.
Speaker 2: I get it, all right, So oh I am glad.
I'm glad I'm missing it now so I get to
avoid Oh, never mind, that's Eastern, not packs. If PAX
was happening on May or April twentieth, I think I
wouldn't go, just to avoid the obnoxious jokes.
Speaker 1: Oh sure, yeah, I don't. Well, I don't blame you.
That would be pretty in your face about that. But okay,
PEX was on Easter weekend once. I went that one
time because the person who I was bunking with had
to do an Easter service in the hotel room. And
I remember that and I'm like, oh, this is sweetie.
They got onto conference call with his family and I
was like, oh, that's that's a nice thing. So that
stuck in my head, and I guess ever since then,
I've just assumed, which I've never done before. So this
is the first for me.
Speaker 2: It mustling. Well, they did that one time, just to
go to Disney World during Easter a lot. And how
was that to Matt it was pretty okay, wait finished
that sentence first. I've heard it before, but every time
you say, it's incredible. Well, we went to mass at
the Contemporary Ballroom. Might have been the same ballroom where
Richard Nixon gave his I'm not a crooks for all
I know, you did it in one of those And
I was an altar boyer, or at least aj was,
and I can't remember, but yeah, that was weird.
Speaker 1: So an altar boy.
Speaker 2: Disney Church, well, calling it a church is a bit
much because it is just the ball Disney, Disney service whatever.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was like a kind of tacky be not
a mega church, but it was a really big Catholic
church outside of Disney World. Was called Mary Queen of
the Universe.
Speaker 1: Was incredible. It sounds like a ride.
Speaker 2: It's a It was a very very big Catholic church.
It had a very big gift shop, which that That
was one of the first times I ever saw that.
I was like, I don't think churches should have gift shops.
Speaker 1: Might be on something there.
Speaker 2: I had a chance there. I was like, now, look,
I know I'm not the best payer attention to this
Bible stuff, but there's that thing where Jesus like was
mad at the merchants in the church in the temple
and he flipped over their tables.
Speaker 1: Does the gift shop have indulgences that would be the best,
that'd be incredible?
Speaker 2: Oh, good old classic and Doug No, I think it
was just like Thomas Kinkaid postcard.

a lot to get into, Mike, are you ready? Okay,
all right, let's do this. There was a Nintendo direct today.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: That's wow.
Speaker 2: Didn't think that was gonna happen when this week started.
It was one direct on Tuesday. Were like, well, there's
rumors there might be something. I don't know if it's
going to be just a full blown direct. It was
a full blown direct.
Speaker 1: YEP. I just didn't want to believe. I like, I
don't get I definitely didn't want to get anyone else's
hopes up. I didn't want to get my own hopes up.
So and you know what, in fair, I think a
lot of people are not as happy with this direct
as I am. It had a lot of stuff for me.
I don't know the standout. Let's do this, Mike, what
were the standouts for you? That's right?
Speaker 2: Prime for is the big thing, right? You know, there's
so many questions for me and other people, like is
that still mostly being positioned as they switch one game?
We can maybe talk about some switch to stuff with
that later. But boy, I thought that trailer looked really good.
You know. Uh, I hate saying for a Switch one game.
I even looked again just to make sure. I'm like, no,
that just looks great. I mean the art style was incredible,
this sort of you know, jungle ruin aesthetic going on
in the planet. You know, the frame rate looks very smooth.
I don't know if it's like a lock sixty, but
you know, I'm relatively sensitive that stuff, and it looks
very good to me. I think the grabs in general
are pretty sharp before a Switch one game. But man,
I was pretty happy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I I it looks like it's gonna be a
Metroid Prime game, which is what I want. And you
know I think by that, I just mean it has
really cool environmental art, really good music, Samus looks as
cool as ever, just one of the coolest sci fi
designed characters I've ever seen. And then there was a
lot of like teases of new gameplay we hadn't seen before,
the psychic abilities, her just throwing her hand up like
a Jedi, moving things around, throwing things around. It was
really cool to see and say, Okay, what are like,
how are they gonna build on this? You know, initial concept?
Where is that gonna go? And I have a lot
of faith it's gonna be very cool, especially you know,
I have to play a Metric Prime one remaster. The
tech was there, but also like just making that game
feel as smooth as it ever has with the dual
stick controls. It's like, okay, I'm like, it's just excited
to play this game because I really liked the way
that felt. I always liked the way Metro Prime felt,
even when it was just the one stick game. Basically
I was fine with it. You get used to that
after five minutes. It's totally cool, but it does feel
better this way. This is a better way to play it,
And now they're building a whole game around that with
new gameplay mechanics to take advantage of the fluidity of motion.
I'm like, so ready for this thing. Now, me being
ready for it does not mean Nintendo will give me
a release date. They just said twenty twenty five, and
I'm just choosing to believe. You know, there's a lot
of people that want to be more pessimistic and they
don't want to believe it. Like we're going to get
the release date next week. It's like, oh, that's only
a week away. Why wouldn't they just do it? Now?
I get that Nintendo's weird, but Nintendo's weird, So I
am choosing to believe that at that switch to Direct
next week, they just give us the release date, and
that release date probably is the same exact day that
the Switch two comes out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that seems to make the most sense to me. Look,
it could easily be yes game maybe later than we thought.
There's a there was a game later in the show
that said, you know, late twenty twenty five, right, Yeah,
I think it makes a lot of sense that the
release date is just the switch To release date, and
that's a big reason why they don't want to tell
us it right now, even though it's like, you know,
how would we know, right, Like what diffs. Is that really,
But it's Nintendo. They don't want to just they don't
want to say that date out loud until it's in
the context of the Switch to release. You know. I
know there's rumors before that natur Prime four wouldn't be
at the switch to direct at all, But this is like,
I bet they're gonna mention it. They're gonna like, why
wouldn't you say something about it? Right, it's a game
that you are eventually going to be able to play
on the switch too.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think it's just we've heard it both ways
at this point, and I think the simple solution here
is it's in both and we got we get the
gameplay stuff here. They like present it as a which
one game here, and then they say, and if you're
getting a switch to, don't forget like that again, Like
we talked about this being the poster chop for a
game that you for Switch one game you can play
on Switch to. That could just be a reminder here
is a big switch one game. If you don't care
about buying switch games anymore, who cares? Buy it when
you get the switch too, and we like, don't forget
you can do that. You should be doing that and
maybe that's all they want to say, and putting the
release date in the switch to event is a really
good way to accomplish that.
Speaker 2: So che If you liked this trailer, right, I did.
Speaker 1: I liked it. I liked it a lot. I you know,
for me, it's like I could tell that this looks
like a fun video game to play, which is what
I want from a trailer. Now I'm getting the sense
by the tone and by some of your comments earlier
that maybe some other people have a less than positive
takes on this trail.
Speaker 2: I don't know, and it's hard to say, like I
don't know. I know, I know read it is, read it,
but I was looking there's.
Speaker 1: Like, oh read it lost their mind?
Speaker 2: Do people think it's not good?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 2: Then I skated. It's like the people really think this
is Like I had enough people get back to me
and be like, oh yeah, And I don't know how
do I like stile people out? But boy, some of
the ticks are wild. This is my favorite one though,
and this is from the recent era. I saw somebody
else post this. Not crazy about it. There's a lack
of elegance in stoicism in the enemies. That makes the
game feel off to me. It's very hard to take
it seriously in a post Dark Soul's world.
Speaker 1: Oh Mike, you just should not have read that to me.
But dude, you have to spare me some of these things.
Oh that's right, fart noise to you, sir Jesus Christ.
Some of the other things that were upsetting me.
Speaker 2: A lot of people were upset about the narrator, Like
this narrator. I don't like this narrator, Like it's a
It's a Nintendo Direct, that's their their narrator.
Speaker 1: He is. They're complaining about the Direct narrator. Go watch
the japan one. Then I watched that one. It's like, oh, yeah,
this is a good narrator too, because the Japanese direct
had a different person talking because it was in Japanese.
Uh and watch that instead you have fucking weirdos.
Speaker 2: I had multiple people told me that like the game,
like I just was expecting more. I think a lot
of people thought that this was gonna be an open
world game, and I don't know why. I think they
thought that there was gonna be some kind of breath
of the wild moment here, which you know, it doesn't.
Speaker 1: Really, Stretch has already had its press of the wild moment.
Metroid Prime suck it twenty five years ago. It's the
first one to do that. Do you lose, goddamn children?
You didn't have to do this to me, Mike, that's
in Honestly, that's insane. They don't. You don't know your
goddamn history, you filthy children. We were all so worried
about Metroid Prime. It's gonna be Oh, they're doing three D.
It's the first person game. It's gonna be a doom Like,
what are they doing the Metroid first person adventure? That's
marketing bullshit. Nintendo has lost their way. We're screwed. We've
lost Metroid We play that best game ever played, we've
ever made. What the fuck? There's a lot of people.
Speaker 2: There's a part in the trailer with the guys like
she uses her powers open doors. Ha ha, it's funny,
like some of this turned into like, man, the only
thing she deales with her powers is open doors, and
I made fun this. It's somebody was like like, they
should just show us what else you could do then,
and I'm like, literally, the next thing she does is
use her powers to move an energy beam and kill
three enemies at once and then like, you know, she
uses it like the force to yes, open a door,
but use your abagination. I bet she'll move other things.
Speaker 1: Right. That's it is a lack of imagination, right.
Speaker 2: A lot of people are just like, oh, this seems
like kind of like slow paced and like critic I'm like, yes,
it's Metroy Pride. I don't know. It's like it's like somebody,
like somebody in the drop off brat was like, could
someone just explain this to me? Like how does this even?
How do you even care about this?
Speaker 1: When like Doom twenty sixteen is out there, it's like, oh,
it's not a shooter, it's not a shooter.
Speaker 2: It's it's just I just drive me a little crazy.
Speaker 1: A lot of this sounds like you know, puddle news, right,
A lot of it it's just people getting anxious about
a thing that they are looking forward to, and there's
a lot of people out there who just don't get it.
You know. It's where we're at with Metroy Vanus and I.
I do have to learn to accept that it is
a niche genre for a reason. It shouldn't be.
Speaker 2: It should be the genre shouldn't be. Absolutely, it's like
the best we've got. And I got people and my
replies being like, the story looks bad. There's been like
nine seconds of story content one and two. What are
you talking about? It's a Metroid right.
Speaker 1: Honestly, we got more story in this trailer than I
thought was even gonna be in the entire game, Like,
come on.
Speaker 2: More than you'll retain in the entire absolute.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm here for the vibes because it's Metroid.
Speaker 2: But anyways, again it's probably my order to pay stuff.
But there's a part of be like, oh my god,
if this is really the energy we're gonna be having
going into Metroid Pride for I'm gonna I'm going to
I'm gonna quit. I'm gonna do this anymore.
Speaker 1: Handle it.
Speaker 2: So that's my uh raging gamer. But I was really happy,
way better than I was frankly expecting, especially for a
Switch one. I think there's a lot of people, Jeff,
who actually are just kind of angsty about it being
a Switch one game still.
Speaker 1: That was always going to be a thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think there's just that and maybe those people.
I think a lot of people also want every trailer
to be that Breath of the Wild trailer, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean you can't live that life because me fair,
I remember before Tiers of the Keydom got its version,
that trailer, the one they showed before that was just
more good look at gameplay with a narrator, and I
think I said, I think I said that this trailer
is boring, whereas the one that's like Breath of the Wild.
Speaker 2: Right, So I am guilty of it too, to be
completely fair. Oh god. A lot of people were also like,
why do they place it in the middle. That's weird. No,
it's not. We've seen this game before, like not just
seven years ago before, I mean like you know, like
the last direct or whatever.
Speaker 1: Also, it's like, god, okay, listen, guys, I like these
events in as much as anyone else. But when you
start getting in the mindset of I am a I'm
someone who critiques the construction of a Nintendo Direct, you've
gone too far. You have just you've lost the plot.
I don't think anyone should be doing that unless you
have somehow that same job. If you're someone who puts
together a showcase of games, then maybe you can have
thoughts on this. If you are selling, buying games, and
watching commercials. I do not want to hear your opinions
on how the commercials are formed or where they take
place in a series of commercials. That's insane.
Speaker 2: Ah, But yeah, no, it was everything I was hoping
for and more, And yeah I shouldn't.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know why elequor try opinions get to be
I mean, it's not invented ye about something?
Speaker 1: Sometimes yes, exactly people, there's people that are going to
completely agree and other people are like, no, I still
want to worry. Just let me be worried. You know
what you are about to be worried about it.
Speaker 2: That's fine, don't. I don't understand how because that just
looks like the most metroy Prime thing. To be fair,
the metro Prime series has always had a Metroid Prime
one problem, Jeff, Yes, or metro Prime one, like you said,
kind of nailed it. So it is kind of like, well,
what else can we do here? So sometimes it's like, well,
if we do too much and then people don't like
some of the changes, and if we don't do enough,
well then it's like why isn't it just more like
Metroid Prime. So it's it's kind of a difficult position,
all right.
Speaker 1: I'm like, you're a little bit of cracko if I
put on a thing to kind of maybe take care
of it on my side a little bit so, and
Chat's not complaining about it, but just letting you know, uh,
other things that have that you know for me, Like
this is I think Sean posted a good poll because
I couldn't think of one where it's like, how many
things in the Nintendo direct were for you? And I
think there are like five things. There's at least four,
so that would be Pokemon Legends, Za, Metroid Prime four,
Tomadacci Life and Rhythm, Heaven Groove. Oh no, then Marvel
Cosmic Invasion. That's my five right there, easily. I'm also
I'm excited about Patapon and I wanted to own hot
Shot Golfs. There's a lot of things in here that
were registered pretty highly for me, things that I was
happy to see in a direct How many other things
here were kind of moving you?
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, quite ye, I feel really I what's
the name of that metro Vinia that's clearly inspired by
the NYUS Ductails game?
Speaker 1: Right, it's the like the Eternal Life of Goldman or
something like that, the Eternal Goldmans.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Eternal Life So yeah, like you know, he's just
bouncing around. It's an old man bouncing around on a cane.
It's clearly Ducktails inspired. So hell yeah give me that.
Even some like you know, weird things like Gradius origins
are Gradius. I'm excited to play Gradius. I had a
bit of a shmupp thing there. They're even making a
brand new Salamander three as part of the Yeah, so
if you ever played Life Force, which was a spinoff
of Gradius, Life Force was originally called Salamander, and there
was a Salamander two and those are going to be
on here, and now we're going getting Salamander three. I'm
also really hoping we get like Odious as a collection,
which is just Gradius but goofy, like one of the
bosses is a giant Vegas showgirl.
Speaker 1: Cool.
Speaker 2: It's a very funny, silly, irreverent game. So I hope
we get that. It's another Ekonomi collection, and I'm glad
that they keep doing those. That's night. There are some surprises,
like Rideau remastered The Mystery of the Soulis Army. This
game was Devil Summoner was the name of the franchise before.
What do you think they did the rebranding so you
don't have Shimmi, Commy Tensei or Devil Summoner in the
title anymore.
Speaker 4: It's just remastered there recently. Is because people will call
it by the name, right, Dough. They will say like, oh,
they're right, Dough, that's what they say. I don't remember
anybody saying that.
Speaker 2: I've never heard anybody call I thought are called Devil
Devil summary.
Speaker 4: Yeah, sorry, the Survival is the other one. Yeah, I
don't know. That's the reason. So maybe I don't know.
It's a good name, so I like him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm glad they're doing it. There's a sequel to
this one too, that's the one where it's versus King Abadon,
So maybe we'll get that as as well. Hey, I
mean that, you know you talked about it. But pad
Upon and uh Bot Shots Golf, that's really cool, especially
especially pad Upon, which is, you know, such a handheld
gaming franchise to me, right with PSP, those are fun games.
I like to play them. Again, I the thing that's
weird to me about it. It would be less weird
if it was just PlayStation Studios is bringing pad upon
to the switch, but instead it's like they scrubbed that
branding from it completely. And Bandy Namco seems to be
in charge of, if not just the publishing, maybe everything here.
So I'm not sure, like what exactly is going on?
Did did Dony just give Banda Namko this franchise? Are
they like being kind of quite like, look, we don't
want to be associated with this, but we want to
make money off of some order ip Like we don't
think this is not good for our cool guy Imma
jeymore like, what do you have any answer sites here?
Speaker 1: You know, my gut reaction was definitely, oh, they are
trying to be coy and try to avoid poking any
bears about putting more games out on things that aren't
called a PlayStation. But like, when I like take a
breath and think about it, it's almost certainly just this
is cheap. You know, you're they're gonna make money from
this and they're letting ban Dynamico do the work. You know,
I bet that in a world where Sony is completely
feeling good about everything, you know, they they know they're
they're earnings were very good I know they were, but
that's not the way herokei Totoke talks and the way
that they and it's not how they're feeling. We know
why they're feeling not feeling great because they did just
have Concord and they aren't sure about their live service strategy.
These things, these things take up tens twenty hundreds of
millions of dollars, and so they're like, we should just
every choice we make should probably just be profitable. That
that would be my guess, And this is like a
cheap way to just make some money. But I don't
know that. Maybe I'm simplifying it too much, but I think,
you know, we should always probably Okam's razor these things,
and that that feels like the outcomes razer here.
Speaker 2: Just like so we're it's like, you know, I thought
in to Ongo, the most important thing in the world
was IP and these are IP. I don't know why
you still don't want them associated with PlayStations.
Speaker 1: And they still I do think they still own them.
I do think they still own them so or at
least well, I mean, they definitely own a pad upon.
I guess I don't necessarily know about the lineage of
everybody's golf. I kind of was like, that's not Mario golf.
So I didn't pay too much attention. I just knew
people like those games a lot.
Speaker 2: It's still Sony.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I bet it is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know it's such because yeah, I also
assumed are they just being sensitive? But come on, like
we're we're at least we're putting games on Switch. I
don't think the PlayStation fans are gonna care. We already
had the Lego Horizon, yeah, MB the show, and I
know that the MLB was involved with that also.
Speaker 1: Is here like because I think these games are of
the profile where it's not gonna rub too many people
to way, like, do you think people's eyebrows would get
raised if it was something like a little bit bigger.
I was definitely like thinking about Gravity Rush after this.
It's like, man, wouldn't be nice if they put if
like Gravity Rush one and two came to the switch
or switch to to give those games another chance to
do well. And it feels like that audience might even
glom onto those a little bit more. I know. I
talked about asked her about with Reese Elliott on Game
Breaking News. Earlier today. But it's like like something between
that and what we what we are getting. It's like,
I don't know, Gravity Rush could be cool on the switch,
but I don't know, maybe that's too much.
Speaker 2: No, I can't imagine that's too much, right, And I
mean I hope not Dan Studio games. Right, that would
be nice to see like that, But you know, I'd
be perfectly happy if it was just you know a
lot of these sort of PSP game first games or
weird Japan studio games like yeah, give me a freaking
Loco Roco and things like that, right, or even tear Away.
I don't know the portable for stuff of this, gravity
Rust Balls under too. I'm not exp them to Yeah,
I mean neither put Last of Us Part one on
the switch to maybe. I mean honestly, I kind of
don't know why not, but I'm not expecting them to
do that. But yeah, it's just I don't know, the
branding here is weird. Part of me, it feels like
it's it's maybe misguided. I'm glad we're getting these games,
and it doesn't ultimately matter to me. I'm going to
get to play pad upon whatever I thought. I just
I would love to talk to PlayStation and understand, uh,
what happened here with the reasoning here, what the thought
process here was this PlayStation's idea was this band dy
Namco's idea? And they went, I have finder hard believe
that Bandy Namco sitting around is like, we should ask
PlayStations they're doing anything with pad upon if we can
just kind of work on that for a bit. Right,
they had to approach them. PlayStation had to approach Bandy Namco.
Speaker 1: That's good, that's good thinking. You're right that there's no
way that like another company just comes like, hey, can
we have one of your ip that just doesn't happen.
You're right, So yeah, I think it's just thinking about
it that way. It does mean that probably Sony thinking
let's just make some more money from some of these things,
you know, And yeah, how much more money these things
are going to make, I don't know, but it'll be
some and it'll probably be worth it, especially if they
are saving money by working with a partner. So but
at the same time, it does help like make you know,
keep a low profile. You know, it's not another game
that has PlayStation studios on it when you boot it up, right,
so maybe maybe they do care about that. It's hard
to tell you.
Speaker 2: One other tiny weird bit of weirdness here is that
there is a pad Upon three that just is also
a PSP game. So it's kind of weird to do
a collection just the first two and not include that
third one as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well what we have where it was like there
was a third one announced or the third one. I'm
thinking of something else on Salamander, right, that's what it was,
thank you. Okay, a new salaman right, a new Salament. Yeah.
That's one of my favorite trends in gaming, by the way,
is retro franchises getting new sequels like the Blastermasters zero
games and stuff like that. I just I love it.
Speaker 2: They're so good.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I played the first one. I liked it a lot. Yeah,
there's at least three of them. Yeah, one of my
favorite trends. Okay, you're right, it's I would like to
see pat Upon three probably does happen eventually, I think.
Speaker 2: Then I hope so that there's the Villain's Curse cafe.
I'm not have to try that thing out. It's just
like a visual novel. Cozy cafe. Gay, but all your
patrons are yasified versions of Disney villains. Sure, let's give
that a go. That's wild. That is some weird, wacky
shit and I love to see it.
Speaker 1: Yep, I looked at it. I'm like, this looks pretty fun.
I like when they do make the characters like have
a ton of personality. It's not just exactly the personality
they had in the films that they're from. It's like, no,
they can like almost be like there are actors playing
these roles. They're still mostly those characters, but they can
also just like you know, be people at the same time.
That's definitely the sense I got from this. So yeah, Neat,
I'm glad it was doing something for you, and I
do want you to report back. Definitely try it and
let us know.
Speaker 2: I walked about Marvel Comic Invasion, but I am very
excited about this because this is tribute games dot emu.
This is just these are just the people who did
teenage Muting, Ninja Turtles, Shredder's Revenge, which was a fantastic
beat them up. There is a lineage of Marvel Comics
beat him ups with you know X men and even
you know Captain America with that one was Data East
I think whereas x MEO's Konami.
Speaker 1: And like this thing.
Speaker 2: What's interesting is that a lot of sprites and stuff
that looks very much inspired by the Mars' Capcom games. Yeah,
just the way called Captain America on Spider Man or
move especially Storm, the way she's moving around. Uh but yeah,
like it just it just looks like a really good
one of those. And I love this genre. I love
Shredders Revenge. I am super excited for Cosmic Invasion.
Speaker 1: It's it's it's dot EMU and it's tribute tributes. Yep,
I'm theme there those like you know, I know for sure.
Dot Emu is a team of people who grew up
playing games like Marvel versus Capcom two, and so they're
gonna have a lot of love. And I bet the
pitch just was, let's take the characters from that game
and put them in, put them in up, beat them up.
Like it's such an easy thing to say out loud.
And then you you know, you go you take that
to John Drake and you say that, and there's a
strong chance he's like, yeah, well I don't why don't
we do that?
Speaker 2: I bet I bet there even was like a hey,
can we do X Men next? And like maybe Disney
was like, we'd like it more if it was just
all Marvel. So yeah, you know, put Wolverine and put
Storm in there, but then you know, put Spider Man
and Captain America and there's there's other characters instead of
like Gambit in that car. Look, I would have really
popped off for the X Men game, maybe even slightly more,
but this still looks really cool. I'm very excited.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I I agree about the X Men take,
but also it reminds me a little bit of that
like old Captain America Hawkeye or Captain America the Avengers
game when I was thinking about yeah, yeah, yeah right,
that's the okay, that is what that is? It? Yeah,
reminds me of that.
Speaker 2: So America and the Avengers. Yeah, Captain America and the
Avengers and I player I ever saw Vision in any
I think it's the first saw vision in something until
Age of Ultron. Yeah, it didn't even risk the time, like,
oh shit, it's the guy from that. Any game I had.
Speaker 1: Data East taught me about this.
Speaker 2: Guya East taught me about Vision.
Speaker 1: All right? Any any other games worth mentioning? Let's see, Oh, well,
you know, I'll Rhythm Heaven Groove. You know, it's been
fourteen years since the we won, so it wasn't expecting this.
Really was hoping, always hoping, but like at a certain
certain point, it's like, I don't think they're going to
do the thing where they played out one of those
weird games at the end of the generation that's a
Rhythm Heaven or a Warrior Ware or a collection of
those games, And yet here we are they're actually doing that.
So extremely This game's not coming out till twenty twenty six,
which is the same case for Tomadaci Life Living the Dream,
which is a very it looks like a major upgrade
for Tomadaci Life in terms of like how the characters
can move around and explore the world, but that is
also not coming out till twenty twenty six, but it
looks just delightful. So these are two franchises that I'm
a I'm a huge fan of. Tomabauchi Life is a
fun little playground where you could just do weird, great,
weird scenes with all kinds of with your friends, with celebrities,
and I like doing that. And then Rhythm Heaven is
God maybe like it's my favorite rhythm game maybe except
for Elite Beat Agents, and in a lot of ways,
it's right up there with Elite Beat Agents.
Speaker 2: It's so good, it's very fun, and I've also been
hoping we'd get another one of these. Yeah, it's just
nice to see it because you know, you always assume
it will happen, but sometimes it's just been so long
that you're not sure. So just seeing it finally show
up there talk about your life was a little rough
for me as the almost one last thing. Yeah there life. Yeah,
it's just it didn't mean much to me. I honestly
didn't even really try it. So I will try this one,
and maybe I was wrong.
Speaker 1: It's probably not for you.
Speaker 2: It's probably not for me. I bet it's one of gius.
I'll have fun watch you play it. Yeah, right, But
you know, I don't know. I don't know how much
I will get out of putting me and Dan record
in a park and watching us fart on each other
or whatever that game does. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Sure, that's definitely one of the things.
Speaker 2: Probably one of the things. Now, the twenty twenty six
Noess is thrown some people off. It threw me off
in the sense that I sort of assumed the point
here was to find out about a couple more Switched
one games to tide us over until Switch two comes out.
But no, not really. We still don't really have that
much coming out until the Switch to, which you know,
makes me think that thing's not super far away and yeah,
will be pretty you know, a few notable Nintendo games
on there, but it's not so weird to me that
they're going to release Switch one games well into after
the Switch shoes out. You know, like there's still PS
four games that come out a lot of the time.
It's like when Marvus's capcom Cluession came out, they didn't
make a PS five is in a game, They just
made a PS four one and they're like, yeah, this
is what you'll play on your PS five. There will
be plenty of Switch games like that, where, you know,
if it's something like Tomadocci Life or especially Rhythm Heaven
that doesn't really need a whole lot of power, they're
just gonna make us Switch one game and that's what
they'll sell, and who knows, maybe there'll be some kind
of upgrades or whatever, but again, maybe Rhythm Heaven. Do
you really need that. I don't think it already.
Speaker 1: Looks as good as a Rhythm Heaven game needs to
look for sure, But.
Speaker 2: There'd be like four years from now, like you know,
just like at the PS four, there could be four
years from now games that are technically still Switch one games,
even though we will probably all think of them as
Switch two games and only play them on there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think there's gonna be like a lot,
especially from the indie side, without a doubt that there
will be indie games or leasing for Switch one four
years from now. Almost certainly saw.
Speaker 2: Legend zaw I'm sorry, which was a bit of a
surprise to see here, because yeah, we weren't expecting it
just out to the Pokemon Presents, but just a little
bit more we look at that. Nothing crazy. It's late
twenty twenty five, so.
Speaker 1: Yep, they said that last time, no more new information
about a release date, but I don't saw more of it,
and I think it looks it's like a game I'm
going to enjoy. Conna Wooden Chats didn't say he was
worried about the AI voice in Rhythm Heaven, and that's
just that's not really well, it's not AI for so
it's it's the text of speech voice that Nintendo has
been using in their games for forever. It sounds like
almost the exact same text to speech model that they've
been using in the original Tomadacci Life, and then you
heard it again in some of their other games. So
I think they're just using that text to speech thing
and a lot of stuff. It's I don't know. I
find it really charming because I do associate it with
Tomadaci Life.
Speaker 2: Yeah, part of the goofiness. Yeah, the tone exactly. It's
not like there wasn't a voice actor who wasn't hired
because they did that, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Nintendo usually does. He have voice actors and a
lot of their games. Yeah, all right, so it wasn't
just games. Uh, let's which one do you want to
do first, Mike? Oh?
Speaker 2: Was there there's two?
Speaker 1: Yeah, this one's not relevant to you because it's the
virtual game card.
Speaker 2: Family Sharing family y, go ahead, thank you.
Speaker 1: Virtual game card. It is basically a new family sharing solution.
I have it right here. Yeah. This is going to
launch in an update in April. It's going to operate
for both Switch and Switch to Basically the way that
they're presenting it is like you're going to get a
new tab on your interface that is like where you
can see all your digital games represented as virtual game cards,
which is what they refer what's what they call what
everyone else is a cardtriducee. They call them cards, So
that's what they're saying here, and you can play them
from there. You just click on them and play. Look,
I'm trying not to. I'm just it's okay.
Speaker 2: I respect your resilience on that that one. At least
you're talking about the market crash exactly.
Speaker 1: This is the one I should have focused on. I
should have focused on.
Speaker 2: This is definitely the one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, take that W and pucket.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm keeping this one. Yes, that's right. To be fair,
they always did it and or they've always called them cards,
and everyone's like, we don't care. Nintendo doesn't know what
they're talking about. Out I'm like, oh, geez, all right,
never mind, you.
Speaker 2: Know, I you know, I feel no, I'm actually I'm
like that with the game.
Speaker 1: But yeah, you're you're the wrong.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm still a person.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you say that there and it's like, oh, yeah,
I mean I kind of agree sometimes, to be honest.
Speaker 2: Ever since they combined game Boy and game Boy Color
the same app of Nso I have felt weakened. There's
a big hit to me that day.
Speaker 1: Anyway, you get this list of games that like look
like a bunch of virtual game cards. These are your
digital games that you bought from the e shop. You
can with like someone else like that. There's a like
with a second person. Basically, I think you could like
share all of those is what it sounds like. Basically
the way that you could do like the Hey, my
main account is on your system, so you could play
all my games and then I'll just log in remotely
on my account on this system so I can still
access my games, but then you can play them on
your account on your thing. That's how it works right now,
and it works pretty okay if you have two people
doing that. Christian refers to it as what it's you Christian,
what do you refer to the idea when you have
two systems and you do the account sharing? What's it called? Oh?
Speaker 4: Yeah, this you just said the sixteen sixty nine account.
Speaker 1: Yes, account sixty nine.
Speaker 2: Yes, they're simultaneously returning the favor exactly.
Speaker 1: It's all i'd say. You know, an Ora.
Speaker 4: Borus I did not. I did not invented this term.
It's just somebody. It's our continuous stuff, you know, how
continues They're crazy.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, absolutely, and so okay, it's gonna be similar
to that. But then also, if you have a family
like plan, a Nintendo Switch Online family plan, and you
have a bunch of accounts there, you can if as
long as you are both in the same place on
the same local Internet, I think you can take one
of those games, share it with one of those other switches,
and they get to play the game for fourteen days,
at which point it will be automatically returned to your
your account. In those fourteen days, you can't play that game.
The other person has your game, but you'll get it
back after fourteen days, and at which point I'm sure
you can then lend it to them again. So you know,
if you're you know, a kid is going to summer
camp for a week or something like that and they
want to take their switch, you can lend the game
to them, and even if they're gone in that time,
they could still play the game without having to check in,
but they're going to need to check in again after
two weeks to get the game back. So I like
this for the most part. I want to try it,
of course, because I bet there's some Nintendo weirdness on
it that we're not expecting that will cause me some headaches.
I really like the way Steam Family sharing works. That
has been fantastic. That's been almost zero problems. But beyond that,
this is pretty cool to see and I plan to
take advantage of it. I have been worried about this personally, Mike,
because we have the two switches that we use a lot,
and I'm like, well, we're gonna get to switch too,
and then there's gonna be three, and then one of
these is going to go to Addie. One of this
is going to go to Emmy. How are we going
to solve this problem of sharing digital games? I'm like,
I should probably just start buying physical games, is what
I thought. And now I don't have to. So this
is a relief.
Speaker 2: Yeah, of curious. See you know, if it works out
for you, it sounds like a good enough system.
Speaker 1: Yep. Yeah, it's good and it's better than what we
have right now, as long as this doesn't like ruin
anything about the way it's working for me right now
between two systems. But we'll see all right, let's see here.
The other thing is the one last thing, Mikey Miamoto
came out. You had a big announcement and I really
did not know what to expect, and that's because this
was crazy. They have a Nintendo Today News app I
Guess News, and it's like a fun interactive calendar. Every
day they'll update it with either like a comic, some
news about a game, something else I don't know.
Speaker 2: Riddle guessing game, like who's this character? And it's just
the most marios.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Oh, it's the most Nintendo solution to
the question of what do you do when a billionaire
nazi takes over the social media platform you most frequently
use to reach your audience and like, but we'll make
our own app. Say all honey, okay, I get it,
I get the impetus here, but come on, this is
not it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, we talked about this on Tuesday. But Nintendo,
if they can be controlled and they can do it themselves,
they want to. This is the company who, instead of
just releasing soundtracks on Spotify, made their own music app YEP.
And of course it's weird and it's kind of cumbersome
with use this our thing. This one is especially interesting
because yeah, you know, it is basically just a Twitter
where they're the only poster. You know, they have this
calendar stuff that's sort of what you know, it's kind
of cute, it's kind of irrelevant. You know. It's another
way for them to circumvent journalists or other outlets, so
they could just Yeah, all.
Speaker 1: These companies are doing absolutely, yes, they're.
Speaker 2: All doing that and they love it. It's fantastic. That's
why we're all reacting now. Instead of sharing news they
don't let us. Now we have to react to instead
it analyze it. So yeah, I don't know. It's a
little bit and I get one to be on Twitter,
but just get on Blue Skuy, get on the other platforms.
You're Nintendo, that stuff is going to get out there.
I mean, get off Twitter for sure, because that'll be great.
It will help, you know, honestly, Like that is a
big account that will help delegitimize Twitter at least a
little bit. But gosh, I wonder, like, is this app
really gonna be a going concern this time next year? Right?
Speaker 1: Right? Yeah? Like do we think about it again? And
I said that about Nintendo Music and they keep updating,
and I keep checking in on it, but I'm not
like using it every day or anything.
Speaker 2: Like that for a bit, because you know, they say, hey,
we're's gonna be like switch to news, and that sounds
like back when sebst Bros. Brawl was coming out and
you had to go on that website every day because
sometimes they would announce a new item or give a
snippet of a track, but sometimes they'd just be like, well,
here's a new roster character. Surprise, Pokemon Trainer is in
this game, so you always had to go. So I
wonder if like some dates, it's like, well, I gotta
go on the app because today it's a bad quiz
about Mario Silhouette and the next day they're announcing F
zero g X for the switch. Sure, right, So I
wonder what exactly all these details mean per se Right?
Speaker 1: How do they like like tease things? So I guess
it's like the one day, you're right, is it's something
that gives you a reason to come back the next day.
And that's how this works because if it's my imagination
here is they do announce that zero g x and
then we all just post that to Twitter and to
Blue Sky and that's where everyone still.
Speaker 2: Finds out about it exactly like, yeah, we need one
person on this app, Warrio sixteen exactly right.
Speaker 1: You know he's gonna Paul Revere it.
Speaker 4: It's coming back to the Pokemon Apple.
Speaker 1: Captain Falcon is coming. Captain Falcon is coming. That's right. Yeah, yeah,
I think that I will probably check it out once
or twice. Now, all that said, if they had made
this like a digital wall calendar, an interactive wall calendar,
the calendar version of Alarmo, and they charged me one
hundred dollars for it, I'd probably be very excited.
Speaker 2: I was thinking about that too, because like, yeah, I
tuck on the apps when they but when they made
one hundred dollars clock, I love that. I go to
back for that thing. Part of me is like, hey,
can you put this on my claw?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, for real, I bought your Alarmo. That thing
has time telling functionality. Just put the calendar on there.
Speaker 2: Why can't that? They tell me? When there's a Nintendo
Direct today, Yes.
Speaker 1: That sounds awesome, like and obviously make it opt in
or whatever, but I'm guessing the Nintendo Alarmo audience would
all opt into that, like yes, I want you to
tell me when you have a Nintendo Direct. I bought
an alarmo. But all right, whatever, it's just a very
weird I mean, the weirdest part is on it and
bring bring Shiggy out, like is he know? When he
comes out, it's like.
Speaker 2: Well, it's time to talk about the Mario movie or
the theme park or like the museum, and how there's
this dumb app instead.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really just because I you know, I got
excited and this was a letdown.
Speaker 2: So whatever, you know, it's like, oh, are we gonna
get like, you know, details about the Zelda area of
the Universal Theme Park, which, by the way, like there's
a lot of things in that app. The opening date
for Epic Universe is not unless I just missed it somehow,
So that's strange.
Speaker 1: Ye, all right, let's see other things.
Speaker 2: Here pretty quickly.
Speaker 1: Yeah maybe yeah, we are we doing the other things?
Speaker 2: Got rid of the good job, Christian?
Speaker 1: Ye, good call.
Speaker 2: I think we should.
Speaker 1: I was thinking and you took action. You showed initiative.
Oh yeah, good move, buddy. Wait just real quick. My
kid came home from school and said that her favorite
football player is Ronaldo Christian, what do I tell her,
how do I get her to stop saying that? Yeah,
I know helped me out here. Well, she's never watched
soccer in her life. Let's be clear. She just someone
in school said this.
Speaker 4: Usually, Oh she's usually show her like maybe made her
watch like women's.
Speaker 1: That's a good idea.
Speaker 4: Yeah, really good.
Speaker 1: Yeah women. Yeah, okay, that people to look up to. Yes,
they all are fantastic guests.
Speaker 2: See dance and chat saying calling me a grape swallower.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this dude swallows grapes is a very powerful phrase.
Speaker 2: That is. Come on, we're just trying to have fun here.
Speaker 3: As long as Jacknof in a rainforest cafe.
Speaker 1: I know you're allowed to just hop in here whenever
you want, but you can't just do that.
Speaker 2: God, and man, that's upsetting.
Speaker 1: Come on this guy. All right, that does it for
all of that. Let's take a quick break. We'll come back.
We'll get to the superchats right after this. All right,
we are back. Let's get into the super chats. Mike Manatti, please.
Speaker 2: Yes, bunchier, thank you so much, everybody, Tuber says pat
upon the replay starring Rihanna and Mike Manatti. Coming to
the Power plock this July.
Speaker 1: Peppis Yeah, shouts to PEPs.
Speaker 2: Tuber says blood work came back positive. So I ate
a bag of pizza roles and now I'm rum drunk.
So here's my question. If you dropped an AirPod in
a bowl of grapes and Mike swallowed it whole, what
song would you play?
Speaker 1: God, that's a good question. I would probably play. I
would play a shimmy, shimmy shimmy yeah by ODB right now.
That would be incredible to hear rumbling out of his
stomach right now. Yeah, and especially in this moment, I
would enjoy that quite a bit.
Speaker 2: I'm a little tea pot. Sure, that's good? Is my
handle here?
Speaker 1: I know Dan, I want to talk about it too.
Speaker 2: Uh. Woke Goba ghool boy says, can we ever get
a mount rushmore of Colorado Night Games? Spoiler? I'm having
one right now. In my opinion, Journey is forever the
George Washington penis.
Speaker 1: That's not a bad journey.
Speaker 2: Moore or flower More you thinking.
Speaker 1: Oh, good question. I personally would probably like if you're
asking me right now, Flower, because I don't have the
social interaction thing to be concerned about. But I bet
like once I like shifted into that gear and I
was relying on somebody else and it was like and
they were like fulfilling that social need. I would probably
feel so connected to them in that moment that they
would actually that is the real answer. Journey is a
good one.
Speaker 2: AJB Times says, I can't tell you how many times
I've rewatched Jeff get crushed by the giant gummy Venus
de Milo. My favorite part is Mike's expression lining up
perfectly with Raz's death cry long lived Pepo.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a hell of a moment. I did
go back and watch that first episode or most of
that first episode of the game Informer Super Replay to
see it, and it is so similar. It's so amazing
how it's basically the exact same thing. Yeah, I'm sure
it was. Yeah, it really seemed like it. But it's
like even like going back to the main menu and
trying to see if the save file was there and
there was nothing there, and uh, yeah that was That
was quite incredible. Also, that's a good show, and I
get why people like super Replay so much.
Speaker 2: Willow Davis says, can mid Droid Prime for really big
an impact at a post goll of World, I don't
know it. Jeff, where's by Prime two and three remasters? Boy? Yeah,
we didn't talk about that. Yeah, I was hoping to
see him here. I guess there's still a hope we
hear about them on Tuesday, But that Wednesday that doesn't
really seem like the place. Honestly though, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I like I said, and when we were talking about
like leaning into that, I am now of the opinion
that at least Metroid Prime two gets put into just
the GameCube nso stuff that shows up on switch to
if that happens, I know, But I mean, I.
Speaker 2: You really think there's gonna be a GameCube four.
Speaker 1: Yes, Here's why. Here's why I think it, because you're right,
they love selling US GameCube games, but they like doing
that for a certain tier of GameCube game, and they
might still do that with remasters and remakes going forward,
but there are like a lot of middle tier in
Nintendo's opinion, GameCube games that won't be worth even remastering
that will help with a Nintendo Switch online price increase.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess, I guess. But again, it's just I mean,
Betroy Prime two is just weird because you can't do
it with that. That's a wee game. We're gonna have
to remaster that one and one? Like, why don't we
just do to?
Speaker 1: No? I agree, but it's like, you know, I don't know.
Speaker 2: It's it that it's still just something that happens in
a tweet that happens via the Nintendo. Is the stupid
Nintendo Today, Nintendo Today, We're gonna wake up one day,
it's gonna be today is the day for Betroid Prime two?
Here it is?
Speaker 1: Is it a calendar because they're just gonna do one
thing a day? Is that? What is that?
Speaker 2: That?
Speaker 1: Something you mean by that? That's so strange.
Speaker 2: So if I don't hear, you know, once we get
a release Prime four and we're like a month out
from it, then I'm gonna be all right, I just
gonna play these games on my we use because I
want to play.
Speaker 1: Those play on your stead, earned on your ally. Just
get the Prime hacks any later, Okay, fair enough? You
know F zero g X we had those rumors as
well that I mean, listen, I do think that's when
they should just say that they should sell it to us.
I agree, I would pay fifty dollars sixty dollars even
for that, but I don't know. We heard about it,
it went away, nothing ever happened. And I think the
part of them is like, you know what, we are
going to get more value out of some of these
with NSO, I could see that.
Speaker 2: As an so O thing. Again, okay, so much of
a prime two Nso do we not get the dualstick
controls now?
Speaker 1: Because yeah, I know, that's I know, you're right, it's
I know, but we always heard there wasn't much as
much of a remaster.
Speaker 2: Maybe the Gordon is nso, like did that get some
version of dualstick controls anyways?
Speaker 1: And I can't remember it had something and the Xbox
version had something else and uh or was it the
x Yeah it was the Xbox version, right, and I
can't remember which was which.
Speaker 2: Yeah maybe maybe, uh maybe Chap will help us out
with that one.
Speaker 1: But yeah, Starbox Assault, Yeah, that's a good one. They're
not going to REMA or even Starbox Adventures. They're not
going to remaster that.
Speaker 2: I agree. There's like a bunch, but like they also
are still going to have to put in like the
base versions of the heavy hitters, and like what I
would love if they just put Melee on there. But boy,
it's also like you're just gonna They're just gonna give
us Melee for free. I hope, so that'd be great
based there. I mean, they should just put Mario Sunshine
there at this point whatever. I know it was in
the three D collection h Xbox had dual stick. I
think so maybe NSO had online That's.
Speaker 1: Right, that's what that's how it broke down. Okay, okay
x Yeah, so that's it forth to not have NSO
had online play, because all ns O games have online play.
Speaker 2: Exactly right, technically.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So look, I don't know. Maybe I'm just in
the now because I don't want that, Jeff. I mean,
I want game you Benisou, but I don't want that
to be the only way we're getting Mitch Prime two.
I know I haven't given up yet. I haven't.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm happy to be right there with you. I
want to support you on this, So I hope.
Speaker 2: So it's it's weird because it was definitely one thing
that I thought had a pretty good chance that happened today.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And like just like as a reminder, like when
I heard about Metroy Prime one remaster, the Big Boy remaster.
You know, it was in Metroid Prime two and three
will come as well, but they will just be lesser.
And maybe Nintendo decided it was two lesser or something.
Maybe it was two lesser and it's not actually going
to be as good as the duel stick controls and
all that stuff. Maybe they didn't do that work for
those games. I think that would be weird because it
probably was very similar. But I don't know. Maybe in
retro definitely did metroy Prime one remaster, so they're like, oh,
they can't do this work because they have to get
back to work on four. So yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: All right, Well, Davis is super chatter and that was
apologizing for derailing us. Now we're good, We got this right,
that's the show.
Speaker 1: That's why you do this. It's good.
Speaker 2: Most of our lives is spent worrying about Metroid Prime
two and three remaster.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're just getting at something deep inside of us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, listeners, I don't know if you've noticed how much
anngs there subdenly was and anxiety. What's anything Metroid Prime
related today?
Speaker 1: You guys just gotta leave Metroid alone, and Nintendo's got
to give us more Metroid please wait, we care deeply,
you know. I'm definitely by the part of this is Kopium,
the Nintendo Switch Online GameCube stuff. It definitely is me
coping with the thought of like, hey, they're not going
to do a lot of these GameCube games, so how
are we going to get how are we going to
get them? And how can they improve that? But let's
say they do it. The main storage on switch to
has got to be much bigger, right, It's got to
be They have.
Speaker 2: To have at least mean why not. I mean we
were talking yesterday. I was like, haha, look at this
funny a SD car micro SD card that has a
sonic silhouette on it. Oh my god, it's one terabyte inside.
So it's like, well, yeah, there better be a lot
of storage on there.
Speaker 1: And I think they're not going to use an SSD,
but they'll use the fastest form of flash memory right now,
or like one of the faster forms of flash memory,
which is pretty good. That's like you you know, you
could put that stuff in a Steam deck these days
and it runs pretty like it loads things pretty fast,
so you could probably get one hundred and twenty eight
gigabytes in that thing without sparing a lot of cost.
And that sounds like that the level Nintendo would go.
Speaker 2: With ellis enough. Jeff Grubb, My good friend Dan Rikert
has just said in our chats that he's gonna start
streaming Metroid Prime one remaster.
Speaker 1: It sounds like kind of fun that he likes.
Speaker 2: I don't know, yeah, yeah, I agree, that sounds like
a lot of fun as Jack and Off in a
rainforest cap. Look, it's pretty fun.
Speaker 1: You don't have to prepare everything to that, Dan Jesus.
Speaker 2: But I give him the rob and say people should
check out Dan Riker's stream movie.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch that guy. Well, I'll watch anybody play
Metrot Prime one remaster.
Speaker 2: Do you think okay? One more sorry, one more questions?
I mean, do you think we hear about like new
NSO stuff on Wednesday at the switch shoot direct? Like
we're gonna hear about that then or this one of
the calendar drops.
Speaker 1: You know? I want Yeah, I'm gonna say yeah, but like,
I don't know, you're right at this point with this
Nintendo Today thing and how directs go sometimes where it's
like that makes a ton of sense, but maybe like
an NSO is something that's kind of like it's legacy
at this point, and yeah, they're gonna improve it, make
it different for switch to, but maybe they feel they
need to separate it out and talk about how that
the value that will be different at a different spot,
because right now it's about selling switch to. Selling a
tin of switch online will come at a different point.
Although I gotta imagine really makes more sense to combine
those things together, so I'll.
Speaker 2: Say, yes, we gotta get moving on one here. Signs
from sketchwants is because of looking up bad video games.
My YouTube algorithms suggests bad game bids a lot. Have
you heard a boogie for the Wii? It's not in
the Blake Clubs spirit though, boogie for the week, I
have not heard that. I've not heard a boogie for
the I'm.
Speaker 1: Gonna I'm gonna cook.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna kick the co pilot button on it.
Speaker 1: Let's see here.
Speaker 2: Recognize this guy?
Speaker 1: Okay, hang on, let me see here.
Speaker 2: Let me Yeah. I think it's just a bad uh
rhythm music carry oh this guy. Yeah, I've seen this.
Speaker 1: Yeah crackhead Patrick Starr, Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Antonio Martinez says, hey, grub Schooble sucks Bill Dodgers. Okay,
look the layoff you got.
Speaker 1: You guys have the most villainous team and maybe the
history of baseball, and that's saying something. Uh so the
fact you guys barely beat us. Come on whatever, first
game the season.
Speaker 2: Don't react heroic, heartwarming, underdog, just real go getters. Everyone
can feel good cheering about them. Team in history. Bloom Baby,
go big bloom.
Speaker 5: No oh, hey, let's go baby the world, Let's go.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be so bad when you have to actually
pay him money in forty years to do it. I can't.
Speaker 2: That's gonna say you're good to do yourself. Kick yourself out,
go guards. Uh. Next up is jew Simon Skatchewan says,
what Captain Planet any of this game was worse? Be
a fun cost you man, I remember it being pretty bad.
I did not like that game as a kid, and
I liked Captain Planet a lot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know if I ever played this. I
like Captain Planet a ton too.
Speaker 2: It's fun. You imagine if today there's a cartoon show
about how pollution is bad and it was partially funded
by the government, people freaked the.
Speaker 1: Hill they'd shit in their pants. Yes, absolutely.
Speaker 2: Simon's back says, remember Mighty Max Toys had rough sixteen
big games. I don't remember Mighty Max. I was in
a big Mighty Max mark, but I remember.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't remember that at all.
Speaker 2: Can you remember Mighty Max? I think it was Polly Pocket.
I might be wrong there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I actually don't remember much seeing any like Polly
Pocket commercials either. I think it might have just been
outside of my time a little bit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe I'm making that part up about Mighty Mex
being far.
Speaker 1: I vaguely remember these toys. Sure, Okay, it did not
ride with me a lot, though.
Speaker 2: Joe Beezer says, why twenty twenty six, pister Minati, Please
make it make sense? Like I said, like, look, those
are they don't think those have switch one games. They are,
but those are just more switch games. Those are more
Nintendo games, and because they can run and switch one,
they are going to right. You know, Nintendo is in
a bit of a even different situation than a PlayStation
or an Xbox, where a lot of their games are
just like that, especially games from that handheld lineage, right, Jeff,
Like the Next Warrio, where I kind of thing can
also just be like that.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm, yeah, I think that it's Yeah, I think
you're right. This is about teaching the audience what's happening
here that they're like, hey, don't yeah, get used to this,
because there are gonna be there's gonna be a tier
of game that comes to the Switch one. Still think
you nailed it.
Speaker 2: Next stuff from Joe Beezer. Any special plans for episode
four hundred face revealed? Please?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look, we'll do something for h not
as important as like five hundred, right, and that'll be
just a couple of years away. We'll probably still be
doing this.
Speaker 1: Don't like making plans, just not a big fan of it.
Speaker 2: The week before we'll be like, yeah, it'll be great,
we'll talk about it, will come up with something pipes
in video games or something.
Speaker 1: There we go perfect.
Speaker 2: Speaking of which, doeb Beezer says new show idea Jeff
learns how to play the bagpipes.
Speaker 1: Okay, I would like that. That'd be fun.
Speaker 2: I feel like if you not to play the bagpipes,
you're going to be spending a lot of weekends playing
amazing grace at funerals.
Speaker 1: Shit. Well okay, yeah, I'm like I wouldn't I wouldn't
hate that. Yeah, that's, you know, bringing fun to people
who are in that moment. Sure, I think there's a
chance I get a wedding every once in a while.
Speaker 2: What do you think Spock thought of Scotty playing amazing
grace on bagpipes at his funeral? He probably thought he
came back to life and watched like the video footage
for his funeral.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he said it's not logical and then walked out
of the room.
Speaker 2: Like, well, I'm not. I don't leaving this religion. This
is my culture. I guess it's a nice sentiment, Scottie,
thank you.
Speaker 1: What if what if bagpipes just activated the pond far
like out of nowhere for no reason? Horny just made
him super horny?
Speaker 2: Yeah, distinct possibility. That's not from Mikey o'learyson's newsuit. Great yet,
is it the same as iron Heart Suit and Black
Panther Wakanda Forever?
Speaker 1: Also?
Speaker 2: Yes, Well I didn't see Wakonda Forever, so.
Speaker 1: I actually have an either.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think that's right. I don't know if
I like at quite as much as that dread suit.
I think that dread suit white in the blue looks
super good. But this is a good looking suit for sure.
Speaker 1: And you know what, I think that, you know, in
a prime game, I think this suit might look better
than that dread suit might look in a prime game
for some reason, I don't know. It just looks so
super sleek and understated in some ways and then completely
over the top and others. I'm a big fan exactly.
Speaker 2: There's a lot of sex st going on with that game.
I do like, you know, she has the mind of
mind abilities like the one even like when the normal suits.
He kind of has the third eye on top of
the visor.
Speaker 1: Ah, I like it.
Speaker 2: Cited uh, of course by a YouTube crash one second
while I find out where we were.
Speaker 1: We were at. I don't think we're a Phil keyho
right left.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, Phil, says Mike. I'm glad I'm not the
only one that noticed Jeff's change of voice from his
earlier podcasts. My friends that I drummed it up to
him trying to use professional grub voice for more credibility.
Speaker 1: So that's that's what it is. Earlier, I think a
little bit is you try to like find your voice.
Actually you could like find voice actors talking about this
where and you can hear in the Simpsons even where
uh they kind of start, every character starts a little
bit higher, and then as the times go on, like
every character's voice just gets a little bit lower as
they relax more and more and just get more used
to it. I think the Family Guy cast talked about
it recently, so you can like google that and see.
I think that's the same thing. You've been doing this
for a long time now and just have settled into it.
And also different equipment.
Speaker 2: The Rochi says, more Sony ip on switch. What would
Jim Ryan think man too bad? Jim Ryson around here
anymore to tell us? He retired in a stop shooting
up to the show too busy on the beach?
Speaker 1: You know he's down in Majorca. So how you say that?
Christian Majorca? The close enough? Thank you? Yes, that's that's
that's where British people all vacation.
Speaker 2: I think Kitty Katman ninety three Sayson while we're at it,
and Rand was a Foppish dunderhead really curse on super
Chat's donger.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, fuck her.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, Ali Miracles is Byzantine and weird. Makes for a
fantastic bumper sticker. And an image of Birdo or some shit.
What's an image of Berto some ship?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I said. I was hoping the virtual
game card thing would be like on the talkover today.
I hope it's Nintendo, So I hope it's byzantine and
weird because that's how Nintendo does all of its online
stuff or sharing stuff. So I bet it still will.
Speaker 2: Be Jesse Sack in excuse me, El Grugg says Jeff
walking up to the box with the voice recorder hitting X,
reading there's something in here, then walking away twenty minutes
in is always funny. And did you know you looked
at that empty box before, like really early in the game,
and it said there was something in there and I
didn't register it.
Speaker 1: I didn't register. But also this is when I was
still like getting used to the fact that, Okay, I'm
like going to the box, and I went up to it,
I'm like, Okay, it's either gonna be something or it's
gonna tell me that there's nothing in there. And that's
why I was like, I'm like looking around in the
level as well, so I'm kind of doing that and
half looking out elsewhere. And I had not been in
the process of you gotta kneel down. Anything on the
ground below the waist, you cannot really interact with it
unless you are kneeling, And I just it had not
sunk into me at that point when that was happening.
Speaker 2: But by the end.
Speaker 1: My only solution, my only answer was it's got to
be back in that first room, and so I was
gonna go back there. But I'm glad Mike popped off.
That was very funny.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that game. Did you dirty that book to us?
Speaker 1: Open? You were right that that is such a signal
to me that there's nothing in there. Yes, I can't.
That's how I read that.
Speaker 2: Every time Jesse Sakins says, what is Giant Bomb a
reference to? And while we're at it, what the heck
is a tolkoto? Tokoto is token to Mi and Mooto
put together, It's great, My I see if I got
this right, Jeff. When Jeff Gertzman was starting Giant Bomb,
he told people, I'm gonna do my own thing. They
told him, well, that's gonna be a giant bomb, and
that's why it's called that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the spirit of it. It was more like, oh,
this is like workshopping names and like, oh, it's gonna
be a bomb of nuke, like it's gonna it's gonna
be exactly what you said. But it was more like
him coming out with.
Speaker 2: The name yeah, okay, okay. Uh. Next one then is
from Ogrog. It says well Christian Maine Ronaldo in Fatal Fury.
Ronaldo absolutely no, fuck.
Speaker 4: That guy, all right, I should I don't care. I
posted about this on Blue Ski. I really don't give
a fuck about characters. For the most time, I'm like, yeah, whatever,
put whoever in whoever game. I don't care. But this
one feels gross just by the connections they are between
like Ronaldo and the Saudis.
Speaker 1: Oh, you're just racist against Saudi. Yeah, Saudi America. I
might as well call it that.
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's just yeah, it's it's not nice.
He's not a nice guy. I don't like him even
like I wasn't like he's a I don't like he's
a sex offenders. He's been you know, judged and everything. Like,
I don't like that guy. I don't understand why he's
so popular. He never won that word cup.
Speaker 1: I don't know what.
Speaker 4: I don't know what people seeing this guy come on
what's going on. Let's stop, let's stop.
Speaker 2: Flam flam. Andrews says, I don't know why Nintendo doesn't
want me to play Prime too. Now I'm just using
Prime Hack and playing on my steam Deck instead. It
seems good so far. I mean, yeah, look, you want
to you want to buy the game. I get it.
I understand it's annoying.
Speaker 1: Yep uh, Prime Hack with that on Steam deck or
on PC with a keyboard and mouse, it's pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Simon from Saskatchewan says epidermis see epidermis means your hair,
so technically it's true. I think Nelson is an underrated character.
Who's your favorite lesser Simpsons character. I'm a big Sideshow
Mel fan. The way that he's in the background a
lot almost never has any kind of significant impact on
an episode. I think my favorite line in Simpsons, ever,
is when Flanders says during some town hall, I want
to hear from Sideshow Mel. Well, I want to really
hear from that guy right now, the guy with the
bone in his hair. So yeah, that's my pick.
Speaker 1: I I do. I like Flanders's kids, h Rod and Todd,
Todd and Rod. Yes, I don't know. There every time yeah.
Every time they speak, I laugh. I think so Yeah,
I like them a lot.
Speaker 2: Ryan Allen says, I nearly blacked out driving home from
work from laughing at the Abu Dubai joke on the
dump truck. That's good Karen's visus Dan hating on anime
earlier and then popping off for an anime Samus is
peak Dan. Yeah, yes, I I don't know how anime
that Samus was. I mean, I guess depends on your anime.
Anime is so many things. I get it.
Speaker 1: An anime is fluid spy by American sci fi as well,
which you know, I guess this is what Samus counts.
Speaker 4: That I'm gonna. I'm gonna. I want to run the
fence for them. I don't think Dan hates Animal. I
don't know why people like m I give that impression,
but he watches Animal like. He had a poscast when
he talked about anime like.
Speaker 2: Come on, people makes a certain kind of anime and
I don't even know what the word for it is.
But yeah, not not not.
Speaker 4: I do know what he hates, fun service, which I
also hate. I understand his feeling when he's just like
a like a teenager naked in an anime. That's why
he doesn't like. Yeah, he's completely understandable, like he's sometimes
he takes time to recognize, like which one is it?
You know it's dad, It's okay, live down alone.
Speaker 2: Yes, next one hears from Postman Dan that's a different
dance is Oh, I'm going vertical.
Speaker 1: That was a good I was like, I just let
me know, and then he said that. I'm like, that's
just a thing now I should be a bumper sticker.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, that's just go.
Speaker 4: Thank you, Christopher, and I've done.
Speaker 2: Uh. Connor Woods is already amazing prime for fan art
of the new stuff. Yeah, Metroid is Metroid is like
Mega man. It just attracts a ton of incredible fan
art of any like all kinds of incredible music, yep,
and anything. Like. The fans are just great and they
are also, for some reason, very talented people. It's like
these franchises just attract the best, yep, the very best YEP.
Speaker 1: I mean I think it's because, like the design work
is all done by the best. So yeah, when fans
see that, they're like this, I want to make stuff
like that, and I feel the same way.
Speaker 2: Let's see her now, next one is from Sibiosis is
metro Venus and Run the Jewels are not for your children.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm trying to start this poll. Run the
Jewels is a rap group, which I think you might.
You would probably like Run the Jewels. They're like a
lot of rap. I just yeah, they're real, kind of
theatrical in some ways. And Killer Mike's just got he's
got that voice. It's very good.
Speaker 2: Gwynn the Hunters is I've either of you played Adam Fall?
What do you think of British people? Pen Noise not
a fan of British people.
Speaker 1: They should know that by now. Yeah, show that.
Speaker 2: But no, I haven't played Adam Fall. Didn't get to
uh check that one out.
Speaker 1: I have it, and I haven't. I haven't had a chance.
I have been busy with the with the the other
game that we keep teasing them. Sorry, And then I
was playing Assassin's Creed and handful of other stuff.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I dude to say. I guesserve myself like
a pretty versatile gamer. I like all sorts of genres
and different kinds. When I see the worst Survival as
one of the main tags in a game, I do
get a little bit like I don't know if I'm
gonna care about that too much, and maybe I should
get over that a bit.
Speaker 1: I am definitely like, oh, I've liked those in the past.
Is this gonna be the new one? And I'm like,
I don't know. There's like been like fifty that I've
wanted to try and I have not, so it kind
of just gets added to the pile at this point.
Speaker 2: Next up is from Jeth Wrenn. I'm losing my mind
and people calling Metro Prime four ugly fellas are the kids? Okay? Yeah,
Like I saw like some people are like it really
has that like switch one vacilline look and trusts me,
I was expecting it to, but even like went back
and looked at the Triller again. I like, no, no,
looks pretty good to me. I do feel like a
crazy bit Jeff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think it looks like Metroy Prime,
which is still one of the best looking video games
ever made.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so next one. Simon from Saskatchewan, sorry for the
downer question all your thoughts on the Roaldo controversy. That
uniform is a symbol of imperialist brutality for many people
in Asia. I don't know very much about that, Simon.
Speaker 1: I have to educate myself on Matt Same. I, you know, honestly,
you know, this is one where I tuned out and
it's just not for me. So I tried to be
quiet and off to the side, so I didn't even
see anything like that the first.
Speaker 2: I'm hearing about it. Yeah, Same, I mean, I can definitely,
you know, I know that this game is a period piece,
and I know some of the stuff that imperial imperialist
the Japan was up to at the time, so yeah,
I could see maybe how that would happen, but I'll
look into that bit. Next one is from Glitch. Hey,
guys love the show. Do you know Sony is going
to do a showcase or state of play in the summer? Thanks?
I mean they usually do something, They're going to do
something this right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mentioned this. This has got to be
a couple of months ago now that they are debating
between whether they're going to do a showcase or a
state of play, but they'll do something. And I have
hurt An updates since so I have no new information
on that. But I got the sense that they were
like trying to pull off a showcase if they could,
And what does that mean? Like, of course they're Sonny,
they should just be able to do They have games coming, right,
It is always about can they distract their developers to
make an asset for one of these showcases. That takes
a lot of time and a lot of resources and
a lot of person power. So if they can do that,
then I think they probably will try to have a showcase.
Speaker 2: Next one is from Joshua Brungart. Well, we ever get
a shoot Mario hockey game of you Dogs?
Speaker 1: No, not a standalone one there. It was showed up
in like.
Speaker 2: That Mario like three sport games remix or something. Yeah,
sports mix.
Speaker 1: Sports mix. I think, yeah, I think it was. I
never played that. It's just not popular enough, popular enough
in like every territory. It's very popular in Europe and
North America, but you go to you know, Asian South America,
it's just not going to play as much.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's It's it's rough. I'm still hoping we
maybe do see a Mario uh baseball game.
Speaker 1: I feel like baseball is inevitable at this point because
baseball is so popular now in those main territories except
for maybe Europe. But they you know, right, Europe don't
want to hear that. I've heard somewhere. They don't matter.
So he's the best baseball.
Speaker 2: Player in the whole world.
Speaker 1: Baby, he's really good. All right, we get it. So
you're the best, baby.
Speaker 2: You get to kick yourself off for me. I don't
know how to thank you.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: Next up is Joe Oklahoma. Hype for the digital cards
confirmation to switch to edition games not as hype as
strong bad is for trog door Hi. Fellow fan and
former boss Steven I saw people saying this. I didn't
really quite catch it, but there's something about them showing
those digital game cards that let people believe that, like, uh,
switch to versions of games is confirmed. Did you see this?
Speaker 1: I saw people saying that, and I didn't like look
into it any further. Do we like? Do we? I
don't understand the thought process there. If anyone chat wants
to just say it, it didn't say you like switched
to edition. No.
Speaker 2: I didn't get like people were saying this. It's like, okay,
I mean, you know, I was.
Speaker 1: Jason and I wrote it on game Spot. I'm gonna
go I'll read the story right now, like you continue
to do the show without me. Uh jay fan was
what we call him.
Speaker 2: Hey this next super chats from Jason Finelli. Oh, I
thought I thought we were for sure getting Mario baseball today.
Opening Day manners have the baseball loved the under sleeve?
Now what the hell?
Speaker 1: Man?
Speaker 2: Yeah? What pretty cool timing. And maybe it so happens
when they Maybe it just doesn't quite happen yet, but boy,
I would I would be down for it. I am.
You know I love baseball, So Opening Day happen right now,
just very much in the mood for all things baseball. Oh,
I should have I need to find a copy of
the Ken Griffe until sixty four game. Now they have
the sixty four.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's you should just get an ever draft.
I mean, I know you like to get the games too,
but like ever drafts, you can just try the thing on,
you know, on whim.
Speaker 2: I think in an nes Ever drive. Actually I haven't
tried it yet, but I picked one of those up
so I to play with that atomic toaster, Yo says
hello fame, Hello fellow gamers. Elon Musk here, does anybody
want to play games? Trump doesn't want to hang It
has to be weekdays. I'm busy on weekends when there's
no one at government agencies. It's taught me, No, I
don't want to play any games with you.
Speaker 1: I'll play Rose Shambeau. I go first, and then yeah,
we'll take it from there.
Speaker 2: Doominal Crossing says, Hey, dogs, probably copium. But here's in
Prime two three scenario for you. If they appear in
the June direct right before Prime four drops, similar thing
happened to Pickman one plus two like a month before
for Penis. I mean it could still very much be like, yeah,
like something like that, Like, no, these are gonna happen
one month before, We're not gonna announce them beforehand. It
could still happen for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I god, that does sound good to me. I
wish that. I hope that's how it plays out personally. Yes,
I hope so.
Speaker 2: Jason Fanelli says excited for TOMADATCI life, though in the
original the official iwata me stole my wife, ready to
get hurt again? Yes, yeah, I want that's what he wants.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I wouldn't stand in the man's way, Absolutely not.
Speaker 2: Laser Wolf says in a hotel at the US Mexico
border for work, hoping terrorists, don't ruin my job. Tell
me your favorite Detroit Lions of all time? Mine is Megatron.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Megatron.
Speaker 2: No enough about football to realize he doesn't mean the Decepticon.
Speaker 1: In this In this case, he's not referring to the Decepticon. No, obviously,
it's it's Barry Sanders. It's just that mean god that
I was a kid watching Barry Sanders. Went to multiple
football games where I saw Barry Sanders do stuff that
you now see in Oh the best Barry Sanders plays
of all times, where he just breaks it for eighty
yards after it looks like he's going to fall down
in the backfield. It was a miracle to watch that
man play football.
Speaker 2: And then B Diddy says, speaking in Metroit, do you
think they'll ever port over Salmon Returns? I mean maybe eventually.
I don't think anytime super soon, Jeff. Yeah, so I'm
still look at the switch to edition. What was the question, uh,
Samus Returns? Is that gonna get ported anytime soon? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Maybe not anytime soon. Yeah, I didn't agree with that.
I think it'll happen eventually. I mean, for three DS
is just the weird one where all that stuff they
take their time on those because they're a little bit
more work to get ported.
Speaker 2: That's it for now. If you can believe it, we
made so Thank you so much Everyboddy. There's a lot
of love. If you still want to send in a
super chat, we will still read it before the end
of the show, I promise.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, in that case, let's take a break, Mike.
You take the dog out if you need to. When
we come back, what we're gonna do is we're gonna
do our switch to predictions for the Direct next week.
We'll talk about that right after this. All right, we
are back, let's get into it. We are gonna do
our Nintendo Switch to Direct predictions. Mike Manati, Where do
you want to start?
Speaker 2: Uh? Price, Jeff? Are they one? Are they going to
announce it? How much is it gonna cost?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think I think they have to. Uh. I
part of me says that because this Direct was announced
so far ahead of time that I feel like this
needs to be all of it. They need to just
give us. It's got to be everything. Yeah. I don't
think we can get out of this and be like
and later this year you get the price in the
release date. But here's all this, No, this is this
is it. We're getting all of the info now and
all the like the like the principal info, so release date, price,
when you can pre order it, and how you can
pre order it, and I bet there's like I bet
there's like a system for that as well for Nintendo
Switch online subscribers. That's my guess. Anyhow, so I think
we get in there and that price when it's announced
is I'm gonna say four hundred dollars.
Speaker 2: Man, I always thought four hundred dollars, and I know
we're so close. And the fact that I was so
wrong about the PlayStation five pro pres right, I was
off like one hundred dollars there, like all this uncertainty.
Party's like, why why wouldn't it be four fifty?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I could just you know, Nintendo like, look,
they could afford it right now if they want to,
but they'd rather not take a hit on it. Oh
I don't. It's I don't know, do you think five
hundreds of possibility? Cause five that is the one that's
it's a possibility, that's the one.
Speaker 1: It is. It is within the range of four hundred,
five hundred, and it could go all the way up
to five hundred. I don't think it's ever going to
go over five hundred. But I mean, so what's the
trouble there. The trouble is how it compares to a
PS five and an Xbox Series X that. Now. Does
Nintendo care about that? I think they do a little.
I think they want to be affordable. I think they
want to be seen as being affordable. So I think
that like just stops them from going to five hundred.
So I'm with you a little bit on like four fifty. Now, maybe, Okay,
how about this five hundred with a hack end game.
Speaker 2: Man, it's been a while since we've done that.
Speaker 1: Huh Yeah, But I mean you put five hundred, put
the new Mario card in there, charge five hundred dollars.
People are gonna feel like they're geting a deal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's true. But boyd, they can also sell
that Mario card game anyways. Sure, it's just maybe it's like, well,
they're gonna buy it anyways, it's just throw it in
the bundle to make them feel like they're getting a deal. Maybe, Jeff,
they could, they could definitely, Uh, they could definitely do
that trick. I don't think that's the most likely scenario.
I think, No, I don't know. Is it weird to
do a console with the fifty? Do you think it's
gotta be more of an even hundred?
Speaker 1: I mean, I think, I think, I do think it's weird,
but I don't think that I would rank it as
here's the most likely scenarios for me. Most likely is
four hundred. Second most likely is somewhere between four hundred
and five hundred, and third most likely is five hundred,
but with some extra thing in it to help offset
that cost. A lean tory. I do think that's possible,
because once you've established that five hundred dollars number, and
you make and you find a way to make people
feel good about it, you are safe to hover around
that and like you know, that game like for them
loses like cost over time. Right, they've already produced it,
they've already made it, and the longer you bundle it
in it's basically like free for them to include it.
And yet they could still keep charging five hundred dollars
for that system for a very long time. So I
think they will try to find something creative to get
up to as high of a price as possible. So yeah,
I don't know. As I kind of talk, maybe i'm
talking myself out of four hundred being the most likely.
I don't know, it's it's gonna be weird no matter what. If.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, don't forget. You know, there is going
to be a more premium version of this console eventually
that will be an all read version.
Speaker 1: This is not a lead Yep, good point. This is
not all lead.
Speaker 2: So I don't know. I'm gonna stick with four hundred
for now, but yeah, we'll see.
Speaker 1: I'm just I won't be at all shocked if it's
anywhere up to five hundred dollars. If it's over five hundred,
I will be I'll be surprised.
Speaker 2: They haven't said Mario Kart's a launch game, but we
both think that's a launch game almost for sure, right.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I think that is the launch game. The
question then is, well, I guess what it like? What
is Mario Kart? If we want to go down that
road for these productions, and then what other one or
two Nintendo games launch with this system?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, I mean whether Metro Prime four kind
of watch it with it or not, there's still kind
of need to be one or two other ones.
Speaker 1: I think one or two other switch To games, yes.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, and I mean I do think Metropround four
probably is actually like launching for both Switch one Answich.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no matter what, I think, Metro Prime four is
there in some form.
Speaker 2: Yes, God, I almost wish I could pull up all
the development studios and.
Speaker 1: You know what, I have a list, and I keep
my Google keep where I can talk about what each
studio is. Let me do that real quick while you
go with another. Whoa, that was just the last thing
I lose looking at on here. Okay, so I have it.
Our EPD one is Kirby Bayonetta's Zeno Blade Fire emblem,
and Pokemon it is uh yeah, bit and.
Speaker 2: Rumors of that planet Robobot remake is that up and
I didn't show up here, they show up here. They
didn't show up here switch To Like part of me
is like, you know, not that remestermixser in real games,
but we kind of need some more new games right
right again, Like Robobot remake is the kind of thing
I thought may have been their surprise April games.
Speaker 1: Right totally, and that that's what that felt like. So
I don't know that that being a launch game for
switch To feels odd for some reason, I don't know.
Speaker 2: And like, we're definitely going to get a brand new
Kirby game and a couple of years ish, it'll probably
be the sequel to Forgotten Land. I'll be very excited.
I don't think that's launch. I don't think that's the
same year as you know, we're assuming later we're going
to get a three D No.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you want to build up a little bit of
an install base. You want to give families a chance
to get the switch to before you start dropping a
lot of new Kirby games like that. Kirby did very well,
but you want to maximize the possibility for that game
to do well. I think, let's see, we got Zeno
Blade Baneta recently, Fire Emblem. I don't know, remake could
be on switch To now, we don't know Genealogy.
Speaker 2: Genealogy is just a switch to game, and it's a
launch game. Yep, why not?
Speaker 1: All right? Then ep D two and this is an
Entertainment Planning Division. I think it's what that stands for everybody. Yeah,
then they have ten of these. I think they have eleven,
but the eleventh is a mobile studio EBED two is
the team that manages external production, just like EBED one.
Like I said that they work on you know, Kirby
and Bannetta. What they really do is they send producers
from Nintendo out to work with external studios like Hal
Laboratories on these games, and they're very involved. But that's
how some of these EPD studios work. That's the same
for two, which works with external teams on Smash Mario
and Luigi, Mario Sports, Golden Sun, and Yoshi games. You know,
we haven't had a Yoshi game in a while, Jeff, Yeah,
I think a Yoshi game. You know, Wooly World never
came to Switch. We could just get that at some point,
but I would towards a new uh, a new switch
to Yoshi game at this point. Personally, two D.
Speaker 4: You don't think that's one that's doing the Kirby jump
to three D.
Speaker 2: God, I wish, I wish, but I don't think.
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't. I think they look at
k as Yoshi as for even younger people than Kirby,
and Kirby was the original, Like, let's make the easiest
game possible so anyone can play it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, Yoshi seems a bit more likely than some
other things than I think about it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm in Mario Sports. We do think baseball could happen,
but I don't know when it could be that Yep,
e bet e p D three Just Zelda.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean it's gonna be. Look, we're definitely going
to see Breath of the Wild as the poster child
for whatever it means to make a switch one game
look better on a switch to whether it's by this
new versus a game, just upgrade it, just put it
in the slot and it's going to happen. Yep, like
sixty frames per second, Breath of the Wild is going
to be a part of that presentation.
Speaker 1: That's I think. I think that is. Yes, that's right,
that's the Zelda game for this year. And really that's
probably why this year we're not getting Twilight Princess and
win Waker again or real quick on that like talking
about GameCube nso again just guessing, but they I hope
they don't do that with win Waker and Twilight Princess.
That would be insane, right. That's they made the HD
ones and they're so good.
Speaker 2: That's the thing. Look, you can give me those original
versions on there, Yes, as well, right, yeah, yeah, no,
we want the w U versions that you made. We
actually like those a lot. They were very well made.
Speaker 1: EPD four is the weird team. They do game Builder Garage, Labbo,
Ring Fit Adventure and brain Age.
Speaker 2: What's the last one of the two eventually, Jeff, Yeah,
especially since that's one that probably isn't going to be
super backward compatible because of the very specific slots for.
Speaker 1: The Yes, it won't be right exactly.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's launch.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that feels like another one. You wait like a
year or two before you launch that. That could be like
the big holiday hot item in year two or year three,
and I wouldn't be surprised by that. And you know,
it's something like one of these weird ones brain Age,
or it's the weird team. They make new weird stuff
all the time, like game Builder Garage. It could be
time for something just completely new and out of nowhere. Chat.
Did you just hear a discord sound?
Speaker 2: I did? Yeah, Okay, well we'll come in the same
groups as you. That's why I heard it.
Speaker 1: Okay, I have muted it and I think we are
good now, all right.
Speaker 2: That was Nicky saying at summer Gamefest. We should do
the film of a bumpers where we get our brain ages.
Speaker 1: Oh that's a good that's a good idea. Oh shit, okay,
let's do it. Uh we could do that at packs
even or maybe somest We'll try to get you out there.
Let's see EPD EBD five. Is we sports Splatoon and
Animal Crossing? This is an interesting one.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I was because, gosh, animal crossing and Splatoon animal
crossing for sure, and hey that could be year one.
I think it's it's it's a big slam dunk, big
year two release if not this year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think either one works. But you're right, like
that that comes. I mean, they don't need to release
that at launch to get people to buy a switch.
People are gonna buy switch to but if they have
it in two, it will keep the momentum going no
matter what.
Speaker 2: Right, Like, there's a point where it's like man doing
Mario Kart and Animal Crossing in the launch that's almost excessive.
Maybe you need to aim big there. Splatoon's interesting. I
think I even as Sean this earlier today or I
was like, do you do you think that they just
do a big content update for Splatoon three like to
get people to play again when you can't play it
on a switch to or are they just gonna kind
of hold off until here's Platoon four and here's the
big switch to one. And if that's the case, I
don't think we're getting Splatoon four year one, even though
Splatoon two was a very nice year one switch game.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think it's just if we were in a
situation where we're waiting for Splatoon three in this moment,
but they've just done the thing too many times now
with that series, where Splatoon two felt like a the
ultimate edition of Splatoon one and Splatoon three and a
lot of not considering the single payer of content or
some of the side stuff, but the main reason you
play those games, the competitive multiplayer has felt like two
ultimate editions in a row in some ways. So for
the fourth one, I think they needed to take some
time and kind of expand on the idea. Not that
they've been burned by that yet. Splatoon three was the
biggest like new game they launched in a long time,
especially in some territories like Japan. Which one do you
think we get first, Splatoon or Animal Crossing? Probably? I
think Animal Crossing.
Speaker 2: Probably, Animal crossing, But like some there's still a part
of me it's like they're gonna figure out some way
to get Splatoon on switch to early. I don't know
what that looks like like, maybe not Splatoon four. I
don't know what it is. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Maybe it is s Platoon three Ultimate Edition. Yeah, maybe
it is Deluxe. Yeah, I don't know. I guess I
guess they really could just do that, all right. EPD
six manages production for Metroid Prime, Paper, Mario, Chibi Robo,
and Luigi's Manchi. Now again, this is not like one
of this is not like some of these other EPDs.
These are each of those have their own producer inside
of EPD six, So though all of those could be
being worked on at the same time. And Mike, I
think they're making a new Metric Prime. I'm just gonna
throw that out, throw that out there. Well, no way,
I think they might be doing that.
Speaker 2: Record counterpicked it.
Speaker 1: It's not happened. Hey, listen, I think this one he
might have missed on. And then Luigi's Mansion, Uh god,
that could be a year one game. How long has
it been since soccer since? Uh? Soccer slam?
Speaker 2: Yeah, soccer Slam I know, so that's what I did say. Yes, yeah,
that way, it was a bit ag maker three longer ago. Yeah,
now again, do we get this holiday the Luigi game
and the Mario games. That sounds kind of crowded, but
also kind of like a marketing dream.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you have if you put out Luigi's
Mansion four in October and then you have would be October,
that helps you know it'll be then, and then November
December you have the new three D Mario. Yeah, that's
a good year.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's another one Jeff four. If it's not this year,
I think Leegia's Minchin is like a year two almost certainly. Yeah,
the first two years it's Luigia's Minchin or that series
has just been on the up and up. It kind
of became our mean game with just talking about how
successful Nintendo game can be from just suddenly being on switch.
I'm very excited to see what a Luigi's Mansion for
looks like. Three was maybe one of the biggest overachievers
for me in terms of you know what I thought
about that series before the switch and then afterwards.
Speaker 1: Mario Strikers was twenty twenty two, So maybe it's a
bit soon, I guess maybe.
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, maybe a little maybe next year.
Speaker 1: Maybe next maybe next year. Yeah that you know, for
other kinds of games, that might be a bit even,
that might be a bit fast. But I think, you know,
they knew they were going to be making a new
Luigi's Mansion game as soon as Luigi's Mansion three came out,
so they did the Strikers first, probably at the same
time someone was doing a lot of work on Luigi's
Mansion four. So yeah, maybe next year, all right, and
then what else? Do the Paper Mario? The Mario RPG
games will continue one way or the other. All they
did three of them, like whether they were remasters or
new games here in the last little bit, so they'll
continue to do that. What that looks like? I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wonder paramits, like are they gonna are they
gonna remake Paper Mario one like they did Thousand Year Door?
Do we actually get a new Paper Mario that is
more like thousand Year Door because that remake was so good?
Do we get a Mario RPG two? I don't think
we're getting another Mario and Luigi anything remaker, new game?
What have you for quite a while, if ever. But yeah,
what there's gonna be something Mario RPG related. I don't
think ye're one. We did kind of get a lot
of that in the last couple of years of the Switch.
Speaker 1: One EPD seven is Metroid, Rhythm Heaven, Tomodacci Life, Famicom
Detective Club, and they're they're busy, They're.
Speaker 2: I mean, now, Metro Es just released a bunch of things.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is two D Metroid. But you know, I
guess what do you think is happening with two D
Metro the probably taking some time while METROI Prime four taking.
Speaker 2: Sometimes you got my trop Prime four this year, plus
Mercracy's working on a different game.
Speaker 1: Doing something else with a different company entirely five O five,
And I think, yeah, I.
Speaker 2: Think it's totally lucky that after that then their next
game is maybe Metroit six, sure, but no not year one,
not year two, even to dy Metroid hopefully eventually, but
no not not not super soon.
Speaker 1: But yeah, they got the twenty twenty six is their
year with Rhythm Heaven in Tomadachu Life and then Famicom
Detective Club. All these studios have other games as well.
These are the ones I just like wrote down when
I was doing this, these the maybe the most prominent
ones at that time. EPD eight is Super Mario Captain
Toad and nes Remix.
Speaker 2: I think they're making a new Mario game.
Speaker 1: I think you might be onto something. Yeah, I think
that's very likely happening.
Speaker 2: And I you know, I don't think it's a launch game.
I think we see it. I think we see it
this Wednesday at least. And oh, oh that that excites me, Jeff.
I love almost nothing as much as three D Mario games.
I can, and I really don't know what to expect
from this one, especially with Odyssey being so wild and
so creative and so unexpected. This could go in so
many different directions. I can't wait. Like it is one
of the things where it would be a bummer to
not see it. So I really hope we get up.
We get it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, what if it's that team and it is like, oh,
we're doing a new take on like Donkey Kong, but
it's a three D. It's basically three D Mario game,
but there's a slight twist on it for where it's
like you're playing as maybe as Mario, and you're chasing
down Donkey Kong game. Would that be fine?
Speaker 2: That's fine. I mean, I think they're still going to
position that as like the Dex Mario game more than
anything else too.
Speaker 1: An, I think I think that Mario, even though they
got a Donkey Kong movie coming, they have the Donkey
Kung stuff at the park, they have all the Donkey
Kong game, Donkey Kong Country games on Switch. Despite all
of that, they know Mario is as popular as he's
ever been in this moment, So they're gonna do a
Mario game, all right?
Speaker 4: Then?
Speaker 1: EPD nine Mario Kart Arms, and I just wrote down
Nintendo's apostrophe s. I don't know what that is about,
but yeah.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's the ten Dogs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably it. Yeah, Mario Kart. I think they
might do that.
Speaker 2: I think they might be making a Mario Kart. I mean,
the question is, is like somebody else working on arms.
I don't think we're getting an arms too, unfortunately, Sorry everybody.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. I don't want to say that's impossible,
but yeah, it feels unlikely.
Speaker 2: We'll see, not not imminently anyways, he says, what, No,
I know, Big twin tew fans.
Speaker 1: I know I know, and then EPD ten is Pickman,
New Super Mario Brothers and Super Mario Maker, basically the
two D Mario team.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we got the two D Mario pretty recently, and
then uh, what was the first one, and.
Speaker 1: We got a Pickman. Yeah, at the same time, we'll
get a Pick.
Speaker 2: Five and it will be great and I'll be very
excited for it. That's like a year three or four.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'm out. Yeah, much much much later into
the Switch, we get Pickman, you know, and they do
just feel like Wonder. They could just take Wonder and
update that in some small way for the Switch to
and let that one ride for the next long you know.
They did. They did deluxe versions of some new Super
Mariot Brothers games. They could do a deluxe version of Wonder,
and I would welcome that. I think that'd be very cool.
Speaker 2: So yeah, kind of going through that, there's like just
there's some things where it's like, okay, it's been Wilson,
so Yoshi and I'm acrossing like maybe we Mansion. It's
hard to tell. And then they could do something original
and weird. They could bring back an old franchise. Let
me name some dormant Nintendo franchises, Jeff, and you please
go one to ten, one being least likely, ten being
very likely. Is it coming back?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 2: I'm the switch to launch window, which let's say compasses
the whole first year. If you think it's a launch game,
you tell me, all.
Speaker 1: Right, I'm opening my third Samasi, let's do this.
Speaker 2: F zero.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put that one at a six.
Speaker 2: Star Fox.
Speaker 1: Hmmm? Is that above or below? F zero? I think
I'm gonna I'm gonna go below for for now, I'm
gonna go four. I think they do get the star
Fox eventually this generation, but that one actually still takes
some time. Mother, jeez, this feels crazy. I'm gonna put
that at Okay, what is this for? You said for
launch launch window? Launch window? Okay?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 1: Then then two? Uh?
Speaker 2: Wave race.
Speaker 1: Fucking ten baby, let's got now realistically, that one is
probably a three. Boy, I hope I'm wrong.
Speaker 2: Excite as an excite bike, yes.
Speaker 1: Uh, or excite box or excite trucks. I'm gonna I'm
gonna put that one at a full Yeah, a four.
I think there is a small chance for that one.
Pilot Wings Okay, this is one where at one point
in time, it would be much higher. But pilot Wings
is oh well, okay, So what I was gonna say
is pilot Wings is there the tech demo game series?
They did that for like Mode seven on Super Nintendo
for three D on the three DS, for three D
on the n sixty four, different kind of three D uh,
And then they didn't really need to do that anymore
because they were kind of going with very basic tech
going forward. But they maybe have a mouse they want
to do some stuff with on the switch To, So
I'm gonna go with a seven. I think there's a
strong chance that there is a pilot Wings in the
first in the launch window for the Switch To.
Speaker 2: Speaking of that mouse, Mario Paint.
Speaker 1: Nine, I think Nintendo cannot talk about a mouse for
a Nintendo console and not have Mario Paint or something
from the Mario Paint Universe launch alongside it.
Speaker 2: Ten Dogs, Yeah, it.
Speaker 1: Does feel time to return to Nintendogs. I think. I
think it's overdue, and yet for a launch window, I'm
gonna say probably not very high, although how difficult can
that be to make? I guess if that's EPD nine,
that's Mario Kart Team, then maybe it's not very likely.
So I'm gonna go with a three. Ken eckeris, Yeah,
this one's tough, So I'm gonna put this one right
in the middle, be a little bit of a counter
and put it at five. And thinking there is that.
We thought that Banda Namko was working on that, and
then Van dy Nampo. The reason we thought that is
they were working on a remaster of a Nintendo Action
adventure game. Some people thought it was for the three DS.
That would be the one. That's the team that was
probably working with Sagarai on his previous games, so it
made sense. But then Vanda Namco said they canceled a
project they were working on Nintendo with and I think
many of us assumed it was that. So I'm gonna
put it at five because we don't know if that's
even something that's happening. Electro Plank thin uh, yeah, it's
We'll just say it's a one. That could just be
a one. Electro Plank three. I love to hear that
you disagree with I love, I love to believe.
Speaker 2: I don't believe that much. I said a three, yeah,
but three.
Speaker 1: Is believe compared to a one. Hmmm, Treasure is like
weirdly not dead but also weirdly very dead. It's hard,
it's hard, hard to say, so I'll go I'll go
with a two on Sin and Punishment because it's like
they're really gonna put in that much work for Sin
and Punishment, a series that like does play to the
very hardcore, but only to the very hardcore.
Speaker 2: It could be a mouse game though.
Speaker 1: That's a good point. That's interesting. Okay, I'll bull bump
it up to a three. Punch Out, Yeah, punch Outs not.
It doesn't have much of a chance because I do
think next level. It's next level right, working on Luigi's mansion,
excuse me, and they And also I think I buy
what Imron said a few weeks back about how Nintendo
was surprised at the backlash towards the racial caricatures that
they had in punch Out, where you would punch glass
Joe and bag gets would fly out of him because
he's French. So maybe maybe it doesn't have much of
a chance. It should. Every punch Out game is phenomenal
except for the Arcade one. So I'm gonna go with
I'm gonna go with the two.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, all right, just a couple more here Golden Sun.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Camelot making an RPG again, especially one that maybe
needs to be a little bit bigger, seems unlikely to me.
These days. They can't even put RPG modes in there
in the sports games which they work on. Some of those, still, right,
I think, So maybe maybe I'm wrong about that, but
either way, I'm gonna put that at a three. Yeah.
I know a lot of them are ended up in
that zone, but that's just where a lot of these
franchises are at.
Speaker 2: And finally, Star Drop Picks, I'll go.
Speaker 1: Higher than maybe you think. I might go with this
because I do think Nintendo does want to bring back
something weird every once in a while, and Star Tropics
is one that I you know, I think they do
mother stuff before they get the Star Tropics, but maybe
maybe not. So I'll go with a four. I'm gonna
I'm gonna believe for on your behalf, Mike.
Speaker 2: I like that, Jeff, I like that.
Speaker 1: I'll go with I guess I have to be slightly
more optimistic than you, so I know I cannot conten
say five.
Speaker 2: I'll say four.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's just be ye well full four this one, absolutely,
I hope.
Speaker 2: So Okay, yeah, I mean talk about those, Jeff. There's
something about Mario Paint and pilot Wings. And maybe I'm
just like biased because I do remember pilot Wings being
the Launch style franchise. It has been a bit, not
too long, but a bit.
Speaker 1: So Yeah, it's like shocked. They are gonna want to
test their tech. They are going to want to do that,
and it's you know, maybe that means something new like
it did on on the Wii, right we sports was
the reason we didn't exactly get a pilot Wings on
the Wii. I don't think we did. And so maybe
they have something along those lines for the mouse and
maybe that's Mario Paint. Uh, that could be the case.
But I think you have pilot Wings for showing like
what the mouse could do for you know, action kind
of video games, and then you have Mario Paint to
show the creativity side, and you do both. I'm hopeful
we get both. That would be fantastic. I like pilot
Wings a lot.
Speaker 2: Okay, one last thing, Jeff, let's shoot, you should get
to the community here, but Launch, do you have like
a window in mine? When do you think the switches
coming out?
Speaker 1: I think all the rumors are right about June at
this point. You know, I want to believe, because I
want to believe it could be as early as early June,
but I don't know, so I'll just I'll just say
June vaguely.
Speaker 2: Just had this Switch one direct and they did not
really announce any games from Nintendo coming out until twenty
twenty six for the Switch one. Like their next major
games are you know, Metroit Prime for whenever that comes out,
they didn't get they didn't give a date, didn't give
a date for zaw So yeah, like their next major
games are gonna be switched to games, so it can't
be that long. Yeah, June, maybe July, the late maybe
August the very latest. No way, it's holiday, it's before holiday.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's happening here before summer basically or at
the beginning of summer. So that's exciting. You know, we'll
be maybe playing this thing by summer game Fest. That
would be yeah, very cool and what's fun.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: Jeff again, like our very first episodes of this show
when it was games Beat besides was talking about the
the imminet like revealed the Switch one or it just happened, right,
So it is it's wild to be here in episode
three hundred and ninety one, this close to it.
Speaker 1: And then it ten Dog started for the for the
o lead.
Speaker 2: So yeah, that's right. Yeah, we started attend on because
the old lead happened. That's funny. Uh again, remind you
at the end of the show. But last night. It's
going to be Wednesday night next week so that we
can talk about the switch to direct, So look forward
to that, everybody. Jeff, we should probably look at the
community here.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, just real quick, we'll go through some of these.
Oh okay, well I'll read a red blooded American. Eden said,
no new Golden Sun. That's going to be a thing. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I like that we made Samoa Joe.
Speaker 1: Yes, me too. I was legitimately proud when I would
see him kind of like buckle like like double over
a little bit. Was like, oh man, hey, I think
Samoa Joe fucking rules.
Speaker 2: I think he is great.
Speaker 1: I meant it. I love him, he is awesome. So yeah,
making him laugh was fantastic.
Speaker 2: Dna ye.
Speaker 1: Yeah, cool dude, cool dude. Absolutely, that was a good time.
Go listen to the voicemail dump truck everybody. You should
be listening, like I at a certain point, I'm like,
are people trolling us every week? They're like, this is
an all time er episode. But no, I think we
actually arched on a good and it's a good show
because like it can be a different cast every week
and yet it still always works. It's like, I don't know,
we just have a good thing going over there. Good energy.
Speaker 2: Yep, absolutely all right, said Nikki for hosting. By the way, yes,
of course Nikky did a great job, just like always.
Speaker 1: Uh Willow golf game enjoyer Davis says, everybody's hen tie
golf of backshots and then yeah.
Speaker 2: It was already funny. I missed the that's good.
Speaker 1: Yep, that's pretty good. Uh, let's see Velocity Prime says.
The Sea button on the switch to will connect you
to a community app that integrates with the music and
news app. It also has me verse slash Mario paint
style art implementation to post images. Yeah, we didn't talk
about that. The Sea button was confirmed by the Nintendo
Today app, So right, right, right, So what to do?
We don't know.
Speaker 2: I'd be community, but we'll see. We'll find out on Wednesday.
What that button does?
Speaker 1: Yep, I think community, but you like you hold it
and it brings up the sharing functionality of the community.
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, clip and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: All right, let's see here Globe rules suck perplexed as
a new three D tomorrow is not announced or coming
out this year. Oh no, sorry everyone, We're gonna we
are gonna have to scan through the lease. We have
another podcast to record, Tommy Pencils. We got two steps
closer today to Ratchet and Clank Street Pass Return.
Speaker 2: There is a line and like that. I'd love ratching
click on switch. It seems a little early for that
line to be.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I think we're always away from that. Let's
see always be clothing. I think is saying Animal Crossing.
Oh yeah, Breath of the Wild Deluxe. That's definitely something
we're leaning toward. A trailer for a theme park opening. Yeah,
I guess that's that's basically happening at the same time,
I think, but I mean, I thought they would have
talked about that today.
Speaker 2: A little bit Racer said Ridge Racer. It's not impossible, Jeff,
that we get a Ridge Racer.
Speaker 4: It is.
Speaker 1: It is the launch like a window racing game franchise
for sure. So maybe uh, let's see two times Champ
beef Hammer says a man can hope to ninety nine. Yeah, well,
good good luck with that.
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, five hundred is more likely than to
ninety eight. Six hundreds more likely than to ninety nine.
I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, God, I can't even imagine that world.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Skalauigi's Skank in Threes says the Big three d MAR
game is actually a Donkey Kong game. Yep, the one
should have heeled Ocarina time two two like Begel two
Beef Sparkle haities to one point zero release date. That
feels plausible. Yeah, I think that's something that they probably
are trying. They were probably trying to do that as
when they planned one point zero in the first place.
Speaker 2: I think it's more likely than Spoon Heaven Slash Silk Song.
Speaker 1: At this point. Yep. Villain Mac is showing a t
bagging and Halo the Master Chief collection has.
Speaker 2: Come up a few times that people think like it
would be this kind of shock thing to just get
Halo on there, but it's it's a little hard to imagine.
Speaker 1: Yep. Maybe let's see here they show up the mouse
functionality demo and RTS game. Maybe a Microsoft time with
age of Empires four. That's Mrehammond of Texas. That is
actually not a bad thought. Those things have been made
for console, so if people just want to play with
the controller, they could do that. But showing me mouse
functionality as well could work.
Speaker 2: That's why we're not seeing me Troy Prime two and
three Master yet they're gonna have mouse functionality.
Speaker 1: Oh or maybe not?
Speaker 2: Na, that's stupid. I feel that part later.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know that'd be cool. Listen, I'll take
anything I can hang my hat on for that. Right now,
there will be no Silk Song news at the Nintendo Direct. Yeah,
we're all kind of feeling that now. F Zero says
dark Steel brushwag let's see, and then Native Game Pass
streaming app says flud Sac Oh yeah, and Mitchief who
was saying seventy dollars US seventy US dollars for major
first party releases. Yeah, I think all of the Nintendo
first party games, as long as they make sense, will
be seventy dollars.
Speaker 2: Like if it's like, yeah, the Kingdom was, yep, probably
seventy dollars.
Speaker 1: What's Metro Prime for?
Speaker 2: I don't know what they said.
Speaker 1: They didn't say I'm saying, what do you think it's
going to be?
Speaker 2: What do I think it's going to be? Maybe the
switch one for you know, maybe it's just seventy dollars, Chef,
Maybe it's just seventy dollars. I guess that's probably the
safe bet at this point, although like Metroit Primary Mastered
was forty docky cut cut your retor yeah, sixty, So
I don't The pricing of a Metroid confounds me a bit.
Speaker 1: I don't, yep, god, and I just feel like, oh,
they're doing the digital card thing at a time when
it's like physical games could cost more because of tariffs,
so they will probably be pretty aggressive on seventy dollars
and also you should buy digital. All right, have you
been playing anything? You know? I've been playing Mother three,
but we talked about I talked about that on Tuesday
and everything else been playing I can't talk about yet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I busted out my Intil sixty four, Jeff,
and that was that was actually a lot of fun.
I know I talked smack about the sixty four, but boy,
more so than any system, like actually playing the actual
console and holding that control in the hand like that
is one where the NSO experience doesn't necessarily give me
a ton of joy. I really do need that console.
I need the Rumble Pack. I you know, I want
to know that my expansion pack is in there. But like,
it was just kind of neat. I had misshif Makers,
and I had my original cards for almost all of
these games, a ton of them, and I remember, oh,
I liked Miss shift Makers a lot, but I couldn't
like beat one of the last bosses. So I put
it in there, and like, it's one of those games
that asks you how old you are when you play it,
so it says like Mike age ten, and I was
just like, man, okay, wow, Wow that was that long ago. Huh.
I lived so much more since then than I did
before then. And I was just like, no, let's just
like start up this same file and try to beat
this game.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: It's this boss that was really difficult for me, and
this time I was able to figure it out. Then
there's basically two bosses after it, and it's like, oh,
there you go. I beat misshif Make, finally picking up
a state file from twenty eight years ago. Yeah, just
like there's something about the sixty four, and I get
it that is somehow more nostalgic than other consoles. Is yeah,
very nostalgic.
Speaker 1: Yes, I think it's, you know, the way that some
people are about like Atari and the you know, the
European computers and things like that, and even American com
the American computer scene or Japanese computer scene like those.
So most people are die hard about that stuff, and
I think the N sixty four was that for a
lot of people, it's this weird other system that feels
forgotten in some ways, and in a lot of ways
it's just not at all and it's like, no, it
should be prominent, and so I think people just kind
of get behind it in a big way. Yeah, there's
something about it.
Speaker 2: They also put in star flexes before, like, oh, let's
play a little bit of this, like that game is
basically designed to you can beat it relatively quickly. There's
different routes. So I just ended up playing through the
whole thing again because it's amazing. It's a super fun game.
But again, it has these high scores at the end,
and it's just like they're from when I was kids,
So like it starts from the bottom and the only
three people on there are me and my brothers. So
like scrolling up, it's like my initials, ages initials, Chris's initials,
and I'm like, who's number one? There's like more like
five through two were a j and I was not
feeling very confident. Then we got to one and it
was MSM. I was so excited. It was me, uh
Samuel Samuel okay, all right, all right, right right, Jeffrey
Michael Grubbs. Yeah, there it is.
Speaker 1: You know, it's tougher for you to remember to be fair.
Speaker 2: Ah yeah, gosh. I had a ton of fun, and
I have some sixty four games here. I went to
still plays who actually picked up Bomberman Hero. Oh really,
there's a bunch of good Bomberman games of sixty four.
Bombing Hero is the most platform me right, Hey, go.
Speaker 1: Spataman Hero to the one that's like four hundred dollars
or something like that.
Speaker 2: That's armer Man sixty four to two. Okay, there's Bombing
sixty four, Bomberman Hero, bomber Man sixty four two. Okay, yeah,
I mean Hero was the one that was supposed to
be a back game that just kind of turned Bomberman game.
That's why feeling.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that. That's awesome.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there you got a little trivia for you. A
Star Wars Shallows of the Empire. There's a game that
I loved as a kid, and it's you know, it
was always a little bit kind of uh, I don't
want to say janky, but a little killed. It's probably
a little bit loved the particular.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, it's particular.
Speaker 2: And that's a game that I would love to actually
finally beat. And then I got going on I.
Speaker 1: I guess I was a teenager almost, but yeah, I.
Speaker 2: Got going I, which I talk a lot of shit about.
At some point I want to play through GoldenEye and
be better informed, and if I love it or hate
it after that, we shall see. But yes, I just uh,
I actually wasn't in N sixty and it was playing
through it.
Speaker 1: Yep, all right, you know what, Let's get to the
super chats, Mike, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Let's finish uh uh these off? Where did we start off?
Speaker 1: Right here?
Speaker 2: Where j D Camp says me and Moto says Jam
was right and flashes a watch. We're not getting that
watch yet, I don't think jeff.
Speaker 1: Yep, I listen, there might be some weird stuff, but
they might hold off on that for a bit. Maybe
that'll be included with the Ring fitted entry to.
Speaker 2: Like e Leary says to Universal, put a Kirby light
at Epic Universe where you go through his mouth a
La Mont show on storybook linknouns that Disneyland, you cowards
beat this. I'll that'd be fun. I think you're you're
gonna like that. Yosi Ride's cute. It's shorts, which is
you know, I wish it was longer, but it's cute
and it's fun. The ten Derek says, which Switch one
games do you think are most likely to get an
improved switch to version? Besides Breadth of the World four,
I really love them to revisit Pickman four and add
new game plus and more content. It should be the
Pokemon games. But somehow I think it's not going to Yeah.
Speaker 1: Probably not.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's like some gives that like I don't really
think it that much, like Smash Brothers or Mario Kartner.
I guess odest he could benefit in some ways, but
not a tough but they'll probably do something with Odyssey. Well,
Wonder doesn't need it at all, No, it did even
we just mentioned three. What frame rate was that game?
Speaker 1: At it? Whatever it was, it was fine. It was
like exactly like there's a lot of waste. The best
looking game on the switch, so it doesn't need much.
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially like those two Ze games are the best games.
They also are the two that like, yeah, there's like
you know, they're very ambitious games on this primitive tech.
They will just obviously get big benefits. Maybe the Sino
Blades will get helped to what's what's so funny there?
Speaker 1: And chat what do you mean? No watch TikTok and
out TikTok hi jan.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, yeah, gosh, I bet, I bet there's some
other ones that I'm forgetting here, but it's gonna be
dominated by Breath of the World.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah, brother, it will be the one I
I I do like, I don't think you're right, it
doesn't need it, but I think Wonders one that does
get it because they just want to sell a Twody
Mario game for the next five years. Uh.
Speaker 2: Next up is John Cody. I moved to l eleven
days ago and I've been to Universal nine of this
I would appreciate. My sister said, I'm a sick fuck
hell yeah, John Cody, that rules, How's that? How's that fast?
And the Furious coaster coming along there they were building
the supports. Still there's some track laid out there.
Speaker 1: It was like kind of wrapping around those the staircase
or the escalators.
Speaker 2: Now, my real question is how many times have you
seen water World? Because it better be more than one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd better be around like four times.
Speaker 2: Actually, that's a that's a fun park. It's a it's
a different park, but it's a fun part.
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I mean if you're in La like,
it was such like, I'm so glad we did that.
When we were there with Sean, it was like, yeah,
we're here, we should just go to Universal.
Speaker 2: Right, especially if you're like in downtown LA, Like going
to Universal is much easier than getting to Disneyland.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 2: Next up is Willow Davis, who says I would love
to wake up one morning to find that monster Chief
came onto my Nintendo switch to.
Speaker 1: Trying to see if, like if Christian was gonna have
that one queued up, because I'm sure he saw that,
but all right apparently not, actually that might not.
Speaker 2: Your Chief comes.
Speaker 1: I got it, I got it, Thank you, Chief Comes
perfect master Chief. That master Chief collection probably does come
to the switch.
Speaker 2: Okay, Uh, fire Hair says, Jeff, you know to put
batteries in the rumble pack, right, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't have a rumble pack, lander. I I you know,
I like rumble pack. That's not something I feel like
I need, So I don't have one right here?
Speaker 2: I really mister sixty four doesn't have an affinity for
the rumble pack.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you're right. That is a bit strange.
You're right.
Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what when I felt activated the
moment I suddenly changed my mind. I was like, wait,
maybe I do like in a toe sixty four was
when I put the rumble pack in, it felt so good.
Speaker 1: I will, I will. I'm gonna buy one right this second.
All right, I don't have one. Uh.
Speaker 2: I got to the store and get one. But yeah,
so you know, I was playing starfussty four. I'm like,
this thing's not rumbling. What am I doing wrong? I
forgot that it takes batteries.
Speaker 1: You know what I did? I did. I bought something
that I thought claimed to be both a memory card
and a rumble pack, and you just said to switch
to do it and it came and it didn't. It
was not a rumble pack.
Speaker 2: It was just a memory card official Nintendo one.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, if I'm gonna get like a rumb pack,
I'm gonna get the official Nintendo sixty four to one.
Let's see here. Yeah, all right, I'm gonna get this
and I'll see. But yes, I remember putting batteries sixty
four with it. Oh no, no, yeah. I think this
message probably was for you because you were the one
who mentioned you were getting a rumble pack. So no, no, no.
Speaker 2: So on the stream, I was complaining that it wasn't
rumbling and there oh okay batteries and I was like,
I didn't know it took batteries, and I think they're
by chat's trying to frame it as a I didn't
know about the eject button in the GameCube track. Sure
the thing is that ridiculous, the things that maybe this
thing was just powered by the controller, right, it's.
Speaker 1: Not exactly the same thing. Yeah, that's not crazy. But
I do remember putting batteries in there. I like kind
of remember seeing the inside of that.
Speaker 2: They said it it all like clicked. I was like,
oh right, yeah right, double double uh next up a
cycle fifty, He says, how have you considered having Joe
Juba on Columbros.
Speaker 1: Yes, I have, But also we almost exclusively record Columbos
at now, which is eleven thirty at night.
Speaker 2: Really forgot so I.
Speaker 4: Think, yeah, it's his trap on the Ben Hanson's bed
at all.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, yeah, he keeps him a prisoner. Absolutely, so
I've considered it. We're probably not gonna have too many
guests on there. Maybe if we get to, like the
near the end of the show, we'll do a special
where we have a bunch of people who love Columbo.
Speaker 2: On h Speaking of people who love Colombo, Chris Pratt
says another direct, No, Mario Arcade, maybe next one.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, fine playing milks Fine, Sorry, Chris Pratt. You
get him next time, Bud.
Speaker 2: All right, Jeff, we are caught up. We did it
all right.
Speaker 1: Well, I think what we should do now is wrap
the show up, get everyone out of here, let everyone
get back to their lives while you and I record
another part cast about Colombo.
Speaker 4: I wanted to go to sleep.
Speaker 1: No, wait, listen if you want to do it. Tuesday,
we did this did go a bit long, I guess Tuesday. No,
We're doing it. We're doing it Wednesday, aren't we.
Speaker 2: There's a good reasons to think Wednesday might go. Look,
I think we might need that.
Speaker 1: We're doing it tonight to do this. No going to sleep, Christian, Yep,
that's right, all right, Mike and I do you want
to tell people they can find you on the internet
or whatever you were going to say?
Speaker 2: Programming note again, last of the ten says yeah, Wednesday night,
next week at nine pm, same time, different day, as
we can talk about the direct I'm Tokoto on Blue
Sky and Twitch.
Speaker 1: Jeff grub dot what the fuck? Grub dot w F
on Blue Sky find me there. I'm Jeff Grab on Twitch.
I missed the last couple of weeks. It's for various
reasons for finishing. Graham fan Dango. I will finish it
this weekend.
Speaker 2: Yes, text me, yeah, text me this week when you're
getting online.
Speaker 1: Okay, sounds good. I will let you know. I will
let you know. I'll get you there, probably get you
out of bed. Uh, because I want to do it
in the morning.
Speaker 2: Call me if I don't wake my ass up.
Speaker 1: All right, sounds good. I'm looking forward to it. And
then what else Tomorrow? On Giant Bomb. You should tune
in for a fun day of content. I think you
know right now. The plans on UPF is to play
Schedule one, that that popular drug dealing game on Steam.
Speaker 2: I really love get drug dealing games. It's like your
favorite subgenre.
Speaker 1: It's I do I do like Uh Ever, since I
played Drug Wars, it was like, I love this idea
of buying low and selling high, like it's one of
the well, not that kind of high. That's why I
liked Sid Meyers Pirates so much. It's the same thing
of like finding you know, sugar cheap in one port
and taking it. You know, it's just I'm an arbitrage
seller at heart. Uh so, yeah, and it's it's got
a lot of that going on I enjoy. But there's
a lot more going on in that game. So we'll
do that or you know, plants can change. We'll see
if anything else is happening, and then god what else.
I think we'll have a BCR and some other things.
We'll get it all figured it out for you. Tune
