What decade is it? Is it the 90s? The focus of this week is the indie game Mixtape, and in a rare double play both Nick and Jon have actually finished it and share their full review. In Nintendo news, a new Star Fox game has been announced, and the Nintendo Switch 2 joins the other consoles in getting its first price increase. Nick also reviews the 2026 film Mortal Kombat II and Saros as well, the next game from Housemarque. We wrap things up with an email about the over‑the‑shoulder perspective in video games and introduce a fun new segment that has us exploring our favorite retro titles and more.

Thanks for listening!
