Ben and Brad sit down to chat about the recent Tokyo Game Show presentation for Monster Hunter Rise and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, the latest information drop for upcoming DLC for Pokémon Sword and Shield, The Crown Tundra, and share their impressions about the newest addition to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Steve and Alex from Minecraft.

Special guests Rebecca Stone of Twinfinite and Kyle Hilliard of MinnMax join Brad and Damiani to discuss how Breath of the Wild holds up in 2020, why we're excited about Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, and what we'd like to see in the sequel to Breath of the Wild.

Huber and Brad let it all out in this in-depth discussion of the recent announcements from the Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary Direct.

Special guests Stealth and Matt Simmons of YoVideoGames join me in a discussion of what the developer is working on currently, including a new Xenoblade and Breath of the Wild's sequel.

We dive into the recent Indie World showcase and highlight the best of what we saw, what some of us got hands-on time with, and how the overall presentation was a much needed return to a modicum of normalcy in these trying times.

It's time for a deep dive into Paper Mario: The Origami King with Rogersbase and NFG on this week's episode. We talk about how we feel about the game's various aspects, as well as the direction of the series in light of recently remarks from Paper Mario producer Kensuke Tanabe.

Special guests Daan Koopman and Ash Paulsen swing by to chat about Xenoblade Chronicles, what we want out of the next installment, and what the future might hold in store for Monolith Soft.

Jessica Lynn Verdi and Sofia Hariz join Damiani to share their impressions of the recent summer update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons, as well as discuss the long term implications of the changing landscape of the summer convention season in favor of online events due to COVID-19.

The YoVideoGames crew of Steve, Kenny, and Simmons enter the fray to discuss the recent announcement of Min Min from ARMS joining Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, as well as the state of representation in Nintendo games, Smash's poor online netcode, and how the fighting game community is holding up during COVID-19.

In another timeline we'd be discussing all the big news from E3 2020, but alas it was not meant to be. Instead, Nintendo drops a new Paper Mario trailer that makes us more optimistic about The Origami King, the May 2020 NPD numbers are in and Nintendo is still doing well, and we debate whether Nintendo's good fortunes will continue as we near the launch of PS5 and XSX.
