Goons, Games, And Gear

Xbox and Halo celebrate their 20 year anniversary by basically releasing Halo Infinite Multiplayer, catching everyone off guard. Its very hard to work on this podcast when things we want to play come out on the day we record but thats just the podcaster life! Oh and Pokemon Diamond Exclusive Pokemon are way better than Pearl's! 

We somehow made it to 100th episode without any lawsuits or threats! What a time to be alive. Also Youtube is removing the dislike counter because they're cowards!

Nintendo comes out and says it will make improvements to Nintendo Online (or so they say), Skyrim Aniversary gets a price tag thats stupid, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl Leak and Ubisoft has to give everyone raises just to stick around.

Nintendo Online Expansion Pass is officially the worst ratio video they have overtaking Metroid Prime Federation Force, Chris Pratt is voicing Garfield and somehow Assassin's Creed Valhalla is Ubisoft's second most profitable game ever? 

Nintendo Expansion Pass is Officially Terrible, Activision CEO takes another pay cut although willingly this time, Todd Howard of Skyrim does it again, and the Cloud version of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is not working too well! 

The game director for World War Z doesnt believe in a more powerful switch but instead believe ports can just come infinitely, Georgia Man is sued for using COVID funds to buy a 57,000 pokemon card and Activision Blizzard yet fumbles during their lawsuit. 

Sony in all their gaming wisdom got a patent for what could be the worst thing for gaming next to Loot Boxes, Activision Blizzard accuses California Department of Fair Employment and Housing of destroying information....which is exactly what California's DFEH accused Activision Blizzard of first, the hosts ponder how the new normal-ghost variant of Zoroark will do and sadly we discuss the passing of Chris Ayres who was the English Voice Actor of Frieza. 

Nintendo announces the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pass to basically universally bad results, NintenGoons has to correct themselves on a previous episode in regards to Twitch, Pokemon Units gets Greedent for some reason and apparently Metroid Dread development wasn't as great as previously thought.

Twitch was hacked and the source code along with other valuable information was leaked and the hackers say it was only part one, Twitch also has a new partnership with Warner Bros for music that is mostly terrible for everyone and Kotaku yet again has the worst take on the internet.

The Nintendo Switch OLED was released and people expected more than visual updates....for some reason, Nintendo actually talked about Joy-Con Drift and how they're improving it (basically giving a non-answer) and California is trying to block the 18 million settlement Activision Blizzard had agreed to for various reason. All this, AND MORE, on NintenGoons!
