  • #13: Metroid Dread

    Nate reviews Metroid Dread, which is a really good Switch game that'll go down as a classic for the console. He also bakes some goods for the local bake sale.


    Note: At 27:20, I say that something is "a really interesting way to end the series". I just meant that this is where the series has ended so far, not that it's literally ending. You know what I mean?

About Elementary Gaming

From the publisher's feed

A sometimes retro, sometimes modern, lighthearted video game review show where one guy talks through his experience playing a game from any generation. I'm especially fond of adventure games and JRPGs.
