Episode 281: What’s Indie Cards

1 hour 21 minutes

The Switch’s next hand has been dealt and we’re covering it all in this episode of the Random Nintendo Podcast. We start on the indie side, sharing highlights from the latest Indie World Showcase and our impressions of the upcoming Card Shark, Mini Motorways, and Gibbon: Beyond The Trees. We then turn to Nintendo itself, breaking down the company’s full-year financial report and what it suggests is next for the Switch game library. Plus, along the way we dip into the latest on the free-to-play scene with Fall Guys, MultiVersus, and more.
