Then, Chris and Logan share their thoughts on the full release of Emio: The Smiling Man – Famicom Detective Club.
Logan is away at PAX this week, which means the inmates are running the asylum once again! Join Justin and Chris as they discuss the announcements at this week's Nintendo Indie and Partner Showcase including the arrival of Pizza Tower on the Switch, Balatro's DLC, and a whole lot more. We also talk about a new Super Mario Sunshine Mod that has been in the making for YEARS and the dawn of GameStop's Retro storefronts and what it means for retro game collectors.
Nintendo showed off its upcoming museum in a Direct this week, and Logan and Chris can’t help but feel disappointed by how it’s shaping up.

After a week off, Logan, Justin, and Chris react to the new Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom trailer and discuss why this game looks bigger than your traditional 2D Zelda. Then, the panel guesses at when we might see Switch 2 launch next year and how Grand Theft Auto 6 could factor into it. Finally, they discuss Aero GPX, the F-Zero spiritual successor that you need to play if you’re into futuristic racing games… and should still try even if you’re not.

Much has been said about Luigi Mansion 2’s mission layout, but how about a positive take?

And, a couple of Switch exclusives are out this week, and Logan shares his thoughts on Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD, and why Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble is his new favorite game of 2024.
