Hello and welcome to episode 120 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast. This week we'll be sharing our thoughts after playing a whole bunch of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door on Nintendo Switch. We were so hyped for this game but does it live up to our super high expectations? We dig into all the nitty gritty details - what we love, what we don't and everything in between. Also in this episode, we share our thoughts about Nintendo opening a new store in our hometown of San Francisco. Also, Nintendo just acquired Shiver and we discuss why we think this is critical for them leading up to the launch of Switch 2. We wrap it all up with some great questions from our Patreon community. All this is coming right up!

Hi and welcome to episode 118 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! TODAY, we'll be talking about how Nintendo has basically won the console wars. Or have they? So much has happened over the last few weeks around the games industry with really bad layoffs and studio closures from Microsoft and Sony in a constant state of needing to squeeze more profit for the incredibly expensive games they're making. With Nintendo announcing officially that Switch 2 is on the way and still showing super strong sales for original Switch, they've won right? Let's discuss. Also in this episode, we react to even more Switch 2 leaks, share some early predictions for the June Nintendo Direct, and we're playing a ton of cool indie games. We wrap it all up with questions from our adorable Patreon subscribers. A packed episode is coming right up! Get comfy.

Hello and welcome to episode 116 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! Today, we'll be sharing with you a fond memory we both have of Satoru Iwata. We were so lucky to have worked under Mr. Iwata when we were at Nintendo and it might surprise you how often we got to see Mr. Iwata. He was consistently in our office and we spent a lot of time one-on-one with him. One of the many wonderful things about Mr. Iwata was he would not only talk to us about the Nintendo business but he would often share with us his own life philosophies. We learned so much from him and we still hold his lessons near and dear to our hearts to this day. Also in this episode, we react to the latest round of Switch 2 rumors and we share our impressions of the latest round of indie games that have come out on Nintendo Switch. We wrap it all up with some great questions from our Patreon subscribers. All this and much more is coming right up!
