Another year has come and gone, and the Game Awards once again proved to be a bit of a mixed bag. Nintendo won three different awards, only to have awkward acceptance speeches that felt rushed to the point of being disrespectful. Additionally, Fortnite is on top with millions of players and a slew of crossover IPs, but where's Nintendo? Thanks to a recent interview, it's clear that Epic has tried. So, is Nintendo being stingy, or do they have a right to be protective and not want to see Mario doing the griddy? Finally, The Batman collection on Switch is in a bad spot with a terrible frame rate and hitching. Is Dagan stuck forever being sick now that he's turned 50? Was Colin fully clothed when he interrupted the recording? Listen now to find out.
