This week, Jake gives us his impressions of the recently ported The Outer Worlds and discuss some of the gaps between console generations. We also dive into Nintendo's newest party game, Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics, then wrap up with this episode's NintenGem, Wii Sports!

Snap into a NintenGem as we give some first impressions on the newly-ported indie, Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling, and then suit up your mech with Braydon's breakdown of last year's Daemon x Machina. Finally, for this week's NintenGem, we look back on the award-winning N64 classic, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

From the depths of pandemic shines a brand new episode of NintenGems! Nintendo surprised us with a trailer for Paper Mario: The Origami King, so we put the announcement into context. We also catch up on a number of games that we've played in the months since our last episode. Perhaps most importantly, we discuss the recent release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons and rope in this episode's NintenGem, Animal Crossing for the GameCube!

Welcome back to NintenGems, your favorite spring of Nintendo wisdom! Jake is out this week, but never fear, Connor is here! Covered in this episode are the ever-flowing updates on Pokemon Sword and Shield, Ring Fit Adventure and potential Joy-Con upgrades, Braydon's final thoughts after completing The World Ends With You: Final Remix, and Connor unleashes his old school knowledge on Wario's Woods and this week's gem: Star Fox for the SNES.

We're back in the ring for a round against this week's Nintendo Direct that covered nearly a year's worth of upcoming titles, including some heavy hitters like Overwatch, Banjo for Smash, the SNES Digital Library and Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Special guest Connor - the producer of our theme song - joins Jake in giving first impressions of the new Switch stunner, Astral Chain, with the gem of the week, Diddy Kong Racing, wrapping up the show.

Hop on board for another trip through Nintendo Land! This episode, Jake and Braydon recap the news from the Pokemon World Championships, discuss new Marvel Ultimate Alliance DLC as well as new E-Shop releases. Jake played Rad by Double Fine and Konami's Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution, while Braydon brought this week's gem, The World Ends With You for both DS and Switch.

Jake and Braydon are off this week, so that calls for a little bonus episode action to tide you over until the next full-length episode.

Special guest Hannah (Braydon's wife) is the judge for the Pokémon battle of the century! In one corner is Pokémon Snap, the N64 legend brought to you by Jake; in Braydon's corner is Pokémon Ranger, the Nintendo DS oddity that's spawned several sequels. Which is the better game?!

A wild podcast appears! Thanks for returning for Episode 4; this time, Jake and Braydon break down the new Pokemon trailer, discuss Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's popularity, wrap up Undertale remarks, explore the world of Yo-kai, and gush over the beauty of this week's gem, Yoshi's Island!

Welcome back to the NintenGems podcast, you're a good friend for sticking around for three episodes. This time, Jake and Braydon discuss top-selling Switch games, Smash Bros Ultimate 4.0 and Hero, drama with EA, more Fire Emblem, Undertale nonsense, and this week's gem, Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Heartbreak for the Game Boy Advance!
