Episode 248: The Cat Mario’s Meow

1 hour 57 minutes

If there’s one thing you can say about this episode of the Random Nintendo Podcast, it’s that the cat certainly hasn’t got our tongue. Whether it’s impressions of the cat-filled Bowser’s Fury inside Super Mario 3D World, a deep dive into some of the movers and shakers from Nintendo’s latest financial report, or harrowing tales of trying to get Nintendo-themed fast food toys from Burger King and McDonald’s, we’ve got a lot to say. Plus, we discuss the end game of Ring Fit Adventure, third-party Switch game news, and the Switch Online SNES game we’ve all been waiting for, Prehistorik Man.
