2 hours 11 minutes

Where we dropping, boys? In this episode of the Random Nintendo Podcast, we’re not just dropping in on the new Fortnite Chapter 2, but also dropping pounds in our episode’s titular game Ring Fit Adventure, dropping berries in Killer Queen Black, and dropping back seven years to revisit the 3DS’s Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney.
