In a packed grab-bag style episode, Sean and Jonathan tackle a variety of topics, from a Nintendo Switch pre-release news roundup to Xbox One complaints, another round of Sean’s Beta Corner, and so much more! For our first main topic, we prepare for the release of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild with a retrospective of our experiences with the Zelda series and thoughts on how it’s evolved over the years. And for our second topic, we prepare for the launch of the Switch by ranking all of Nintendo’s home and mobile consoles – all 10 to 12 of them, depending on where you stand on a very silly argument between Jonathan and Sean – from worst (spoiler: it’s the Virtual Boy) to best (spoiler: it’s exactly what you think it is…hopefully there are some surprises in between).

Enjoy, and come back next week for our impressions of the Nintendo Switch, Zelda, Logan, Horizon Zero Dawn, and more!
