Hello and welcome to episode 105 of the Kit and Krysta Podcast! This week we are joined by special guest BeatEmUps(Wood Hawker) to talk about what zany gimmicks Nintendo could potentially bring back for the Switch 2. Nintendo is the kind of company who never leaves an innovation behind, so what could they be cooking up for this next console? Also in this episode, we have so much news around the newest round of Switch 2 rumors, the potential Nintendo Direct this week and of course Xbox's big business update. Seems like there is just a lot going on in the video game industry and we're here with the popcorn to see it all go down. In games we are playing, we've still been going strong through Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth but we've also been playing some new stuff like the Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth demo and it's all very fun so let us tell you all about it. We wrap it all up with a few questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers. All this is coming right up!

Hello and welcome to another episode of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! This week we'll be examining if Nintendo is finally going to right their wrongs with Princess Peach with her new game, Princess Peach Showtime. Peach is such an iconic Nintendo character and she's gotten even more popular from the movie last year, it's high time she gets the respect she deserves. Is Nintendo doing enough with this game or will we continue to suffer Princess Peach disappointment. Also in this episode, we share our reaction to the rumor about Xbox going multi-platform and our thoughts on the PlayStation State of Play. We're still playing Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and it's amazing. We've been palling around with our little pals in Palworld. We also tried out the Mario vs. Donkey Kong demo and we tell you what we think about the game so far. We wrap it all up with questions from our amazing Patreon community.

Hello and welcome to episode 103 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast. We have a gloriously jam packed show for you today filled with all sorts of fun stuff. First, let's talk about what we think is happening with this February Nintendo Direct. There is something very fishy going on with Nintendo over the last few weeks announcing all kinds of things on Twitter that would have been perfect for a Direct so what does it all mean? Let's figure it out together. We also have a huge news section where we share our reaction on the Pokemon statement around Palworld and what we think is going on with Aonuma being spotted at Universal. In our 'Never A Minute' segment, we're doing a tier list of the most egregious copycat Palworld designs. For our Nintendo storytime this week, we talk about a time where we lived in fear that Nintendo Minute would be canceled because it was getting whacked by the YouTube algorithm. We wrap it all up with questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers. Big show let's go!

Hello and welcome to episode 102 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! We're joined today by a very special guest -  former Nintendo employee, video game narrative designer and our friend Alexa Ray Corriea. We're going to have a chat with Alexa about what it's like inside Nintendo when the crushing pressure of the fan community just gets to be too much. We've all lived through this and we're pretty sure Nintendo is dealing with it right now with all speculation swirling around Switch 2. Alexa also shares what it means to be a narrative designer and writer for video games. We're all going to learn together. We also talk about games we are playing including Palworld. Yes, we are playing Palworld. In our news section we share our thoughts about the Xbox Developer Direct and some of the games they announced. We wrap it all up with a handful of questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers.

We're so excited to celebrate this milestone but we're also so excited to keep going with the podcast because we love it and we're so grateful that you love it too. In this episode, we'll continue to have a discussion about the thing on everyone's minds right now - Switch 2. Last week we made our bold predictions about when we think Switch 2 will be announced and released but today we want to take you inside Nintendo and give you a glimpse of what Nintendo is doing right now to prepare to announce and launch Switch 2. For the public, Switch 2 doesn't officially kick off until its announced but we're sure everyone inside Nintendo has been working on this for a long time. What might they be doing? We'll tell you in this episode. We're also doing something super fun to celebrate our big 100 episode milestone by sharing 10 moments that led us to where we are right now. We hope you settle in for some fun with us. Let's gooooooooo!

Hello and welcome to the very first episode of the Kit & Krysta Podcast of 2024! We're so excited for what this year will bring and we're going to kick it off with a bang with our hot predictions for 2024. We did pretty good last year with our 2023 predictions but this year is admittedly a bit more nebulous. We also lock a few predictions in and if we're wrong there is a severe punishment to endure. Also in this episode, we also have more games we've been playing over the holiday break and we wrap it all up with questions from our amazing Patreon subscribers. All this and more is coming right up!

Hello and welcome to the final episode of the Kit & Krysta Podcast for 2023! What an exciting year it's been and we're so looking forward to another great year in 2024. Before that though, we have one last one for the books. Today, we'll be digging deeper into all the "Discourse" that's been happening around Eiji Aonuma's comments on the future of the Zelda series. So many people are talking about this but we've worked with Mr. Aonuma for many years and think we can explain what he might be thinking and what he might mean when he said what he said. Also in this episode, we talking about some of the games we've been playing over the holiday break. We have a more streamlined episode so we wrap it all up with a bigger Q&A segment with questions from our Patreon subscribers. Hope you enjoy and see you in 2024!

Hello and welcome to episode 97 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! Today we try to decide if 2023 is the best year for games ever. We certainly had a huge number of incredible games launch this year and we had more games than ever to play but does it beat out other iconic gaming years like 1996 when the Nintendo 64 launched? Or 1998 when The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Metal Gear Solid came out. Let's take a deep dive and figure it out once and for all. We also had the amazing honor of having the producer of the Ace Attorney series - Kenichi Hashimoto answering hard hitting questions from our community. Also in this episode, we have a monster Games We're Playing section with Kit beating Star Wars: Jedi Survivor and Krysta checking out a new puzzle game that everyone is talking about, Chants of Sennaar. We talk about the final end of E3 and the cancellation The Last of Us Online. We wrap it all up with questions from our Patreon community. Big episode coming right up. Settle on in and get ready!
