Punishing the Competition: Spidey’s Record-Slinging Debut
Spider-Man just shattered the internet, but Nintendo is hitting the brakes! 🕸️📉
In this episode of the Mid MO Nerd Show, Mat, Gary, and Andrew dive into a week that shifted the entire nerd landscape. We start with the record-breaking teaser for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which didn’t just swing—it soared to a mind-blowing 1.1 billion views in its first four days. We’re breaking down Tom Holland’s confirmation of Jon Bernthal’s Punisher appearing in the film and what their "odd-couple" dynamic means for the MCU.
But it’s not all heroics... we’re also discussing the "Hardware Crisis" at Nintendo. With production for the Switch 2 being slashed by 33%, we ask the tough questions: Is the $450 price tag too high? And where are the "killer apps" for 2026?
Also in this episode:
🏆 The 2026 Oscars Recap: Conan O'Brien hosted, but Ryan Coogler’s vampire epic Sinners and Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein took home the gold. We discuss Michael B. Jordan’s historic win!
🎨 RIP Sam Kieth: Remembering the visionary creator of The Maxx and his surreal legacy in comics.
🎲 Tabletop News: Warhammer 40K brings back Sebastian Yarrick, and we look at WotC’s 2026 D&D roadmap.
