Episode 92: Taste The Rainbow


Listen Later

Between Kirby and the Rainbow Curse and a recent influx of eShop announcements, you could say Nintendo is on a roll in more ways than one. And in this episode of the Random Nintendo Podcast, we’re covering all of it. The show first begins with the big eShop news from the 2015 Game Developers Conference, including a discussion of the next wave of indie titles and our assessment of Nintendo’s progress in the indie scene as a whole. We then turn our attention to Nintendo’s own games with fresh details on Mario Party 10 and rumors of what’s next for Amiibo, plus our full impressions of Kirby and the Rainbow Curse and the eShop’s Lone Survivor: The Director’s Cut.

This episode also marks the beginning of a new podcast feature: the Random Nintendo Mailbag! You’ve heard us cover news and games, but now we want to address whatever burning Nintendo questions you may have. For our inaugural mailbag, we weigh in on how we think Nintendo could make an entirely new 3D Zelda game for 3DS. To hear us answer your question next, simply submit it via our contact form. Be sure to also follow us on Twitter @RandomNintendo and subscribe to the podcast on iTunes so you don’t miss the episode where we tackle your topic.

As always, we’ve included links below for more information on all the news and games discussed in this episode. Each link also lists a time stamp so you can easily find the segments that most interest you. Enjoy!
