    • I’ve listened to a lot of nintendo Podcast over the last few years, and I’m glad I had the opportunity to discover this one!  The quality, research, insights and pacing of this podcast are all perfect, and the run times of each episode never feel overwhelming.  I really enjoy the music and retro cutscenes that bring me back to my childhood as well!  I worked in radio for several years and know how hard it can be to run a solo show, but RunJumpStomp makes it seem easy, and that’s what a true testament to his talent.  I highly recommend this podcast to any Nintendo fan or anyone who enjoys video games.  Keep up the great work!

    • Must have Nintendo Switch Podcast, I’m sorry but I refuse to believe that Run Jump Stomp is one single person.  There is just no way that one person can create so much content, so much rich content as there is on RJS platforms.  If he expects us to believe that this is just himself then he’s got another thing coming.  I’m watching you Bill.  For quite some time now I’ve suspected that you are able to defy physics by multiplying yourself in order get as much done as you do.  We see you live-streaming while the other you works the camera/all background equipment and the other one of you works your social media and who knows how many others coming up with all kind of numerous shenanigans including this podcast.  I've got my eye on you RJS.  You’re just too awesome to be one man.

    • I wish I found this podcast sooner.  I have only been listening for a few weeks now but this has already proven to be my favorite Nintendo podcast.  It is superior to others I listen to (without naming them) for a multitude of reasons.  Episodes come out frequently throughout the week so news is given timely and the episodes are short, sweet and to the point.  In addition to this, what makes the host better than most is the attention he gives to feedback (both positive and negative.  Keep up the great work RJS!

    • Love the podcast. Now that I am downloading a lot of your suggestions, I feel a good topic to discuss is expandable storage. What micro-SD cards are a must have and what one should we stay away from. I'd love to hear that on an upcoming episode!
      
      Thanks, and keep crushing the competition. Only Switch podcast that matters in my opinion.

    Just a quick note to say how much I enjoy your SwitchCraft podcast. I've not been able to leave a review, my podcast service  does not do reviews.
    I really like your more mature non bias approach to Nintendo related stuff. You are not afraid to point out when something is bad with Nintendo.
    
    A couple of quick questions about Splatoon 2.
    
    I really enjoyed the splat fests, but I hate giving my T shirt back, do you think it would be good to keep them ? the rest of the game gives out new clothing all over the place, yet takes your splat fests  T back as soon as the event is over. It would be nice in a couple of years to go over the collection just to see what splat fests you had taken part in.
    
    Do you think they will ever add offline play for the multi player modes ? I.E play turf war with bots ? I play MK8D battle mode with bots all the time, and it's not too bad.
    
    Please keep up the good work.
    
    Karl. (UK based 40 year old gamer)
