Nintendo Voice Chat

In our Nintendo Voice Chat post-show for the huge February 2023 Nintendo Direct, the NVC cast goes bonkers over all the new reveals! With everything from Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom getting a new trailer, to a totally unexpected shadow drop of Metroid Prime: Remastered, there was something for everyone in this week's Direct. What were our favorite reveals of the show? How close was Rebekah to predicting some of what would drop? Join Seth Macy, Rebekah Valentine, Jeffrey Vega, and Brian Altano in this jam packed episode!

Well, Nintendo won't be on the E3 showfloor this year. And neither will Xbox. Or Sony. That kind of blows! We talk about Industry Legend Kat Bailey's excellent scoop on E3 2023, share our thoughts on the future of E3 and E3's past, and since it's February, we talk about the credibility of Nintendo Direct rumors. Are they rumors, or are they real? Well, we won't know until it's confirmed, I guess. Join Kat Bailey, Reb Valentine, Peer Schneider and Seth Macy for another reference-filled episode of Nintendo Voice Chat.

In this episode of Nintendo Voice Chat, the NVC crew got together to talk about release of GoldenEye 007 finally coming to Switch Online! But more importantly, Jeffrey Vega had a chance to visit Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Hollywood and filled us in on all the cool sights and sounds he experienced there along with ranking some of his favorite food there! We can't wait to send the rest of the NVC crew there. *sigh*

Also, Reb's been playing a great new indie game that got her to ugly cry while playing through it. Which could it be? Tune in to today's episode of Nintendo Voice Chat and find out!

Fire Emblem Engage reviews are out and they are positive… but some are more positive than others. Why is that? Well it's because different people have different tastes, obviously, but do those tastes jibe with our panel of Nintendo enthusiasts? Join Kat Bailey, Reb Valentine, Peer Schneider and Seth Macy.

It's the end of the year (almost), which means we can forget all about 2022 and point our gaze at what the future holds. With Tears of the Kingdom, the return of E3, and no sign of Metroid Prime 4 so far, could 2023 be the best the Nintendo Switch has ever had? We take your Nintendo predictions

The Game Awards have come and gone, and Nintendo had a decent enough showing, right? Sure, we didn't see all our Nintendo dreams come true, but what did you expect? It's the Game Awards, not a Nintendo Direct. We did get to see a new Bayonetta game, Fire Emblem DLC and a wonderful new clip from the Super Mario movie, which was nice.

Nintendo surprised us with a new look at the Super Mario Movie this week, and it actually got us all more excited than the previous reveal. That's just good marketing, friends. We also talk about the glaring performance problems with Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and how some of our favorite games haven't always had the best, or even good, performance. On top of that Seth makes a compelling case for Sonic Frontiers as Game of the Year.
