Listen Later

‘Tis the day before E3 and all through the games industry, all the creatures are stirring, including a pink puff ball and an electric mouse. In this episode of the Random Nintendo Podcast, we bring you full impressions of the just-released Kirby: Planet Robobot and spend some quality hands-on time with the upcoming Pokemon Go. We also cover all the big pre-E3 news, including the now branching paths of the toys-to-life industry with the latest Skylanders and Lego Dimensions reveals, the rise of indie games at retail, and of course, new NX rumors. Plus, we examine May sales numbers, geek out about the Vans x Nintendo collaboration, and weigh in on The Angry Birds Movie.
