There are rumors and then there are crazy rumors. The idea of a Metroid/Star Fox crossover game falls into the latter category. It’s not often that Nintendo combines franchises, so an intergalactic mashup of this nature deserves special attention. In this episode of the Random Nintendo Podcast, we discuss this very rumor, along with Ubisoft’s ambitious Wii U plans, a slew of other Wii U rumors, and the latest video game sales numbers. We also share our impressions of both Go! Go! Kokopolo for DSiWare (which stars the “mad cat” of our episode title) and the 3DS demo of Rayman Origins, so be sure to take a listen!
