We saw the sights. We played the games. We got hands-on time with the Wii U and 3DS XL. Episode 20 of the Random Nintendo Podcast is coming to you from the epicenter of pop culture that is San Diego Comic-Con, and it’s our biggest episode ever! We’re packing this episode with impressions galore as we discuss our four-hour Wii U play session, our time with the 3DS lineup and revamped XL hardware, and the expo as a whole. Plus, as always, we bring you all the latest Nintendo news. This is definitely an episode that you do not want to miss!
