Episode 19

This episode Josh is joined by Alex Harding who is the Chief Editor of Switchaboo and the founder of The IndiEXP (indie-XP) which is a small PR marketing business looking to assist indie developers with promoting their games.

In this episode they go over the games they've played of late including Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Live A Live and Stray, plus the sad reality of Nintendo sports titles and how they're destined to always be subpar.

Finally it's been a crazy couple weeks of news and the pair go over all the headlines including the new digital-only Kirby title, Bayonetta 3 getting it's release date, more games coming to NSO plus more.
