              • Episode 213: Mano A Mario


                The great debate has arrived: is Super Mario World the best video game ever? Where does it stand against other Mario titles? If you’re a regular listener, you know it’s been a point of contention for us, and in this episode of the Random Nintendo Podcast, we finally hash it out. But like any good title fight, you need a pre-show too. Luckily we’ve got plenty to cover, from Brain Age’s revival and fresh Pokemon Sword & Shield details to a look back at the Mario & Luigi series in light of developer AlphaDream’s bankruptcy. Plus, we debate gaming’s best controller and share impressions of the Switch Lite and Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse.

                Where do you rank Super Mario World? Comment and let us know! If you enjoyed the show, be sure to subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play Music, YouTube, or your favorite podcast app. You can also follow us on Twitter @RandomNintendo.

                    If the first half of 2019 was the Switch lineup in a slumber, then September’s onslaught of new games is its awakening. In this episode of the Random Nintendo Podcast, we share impressions of three of the biggest, The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, Untitled Goose Game, and Sayonara Wild Hearts, plus older releases Cuphead and Truck Racing Championship. We also examine what such a high number of new titles means for discoverability and the future of the eShop, as well as give our takes on Mario Kart Tour and its multiple monetization schemes.
