Hi and welcome to episode 106 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! We have a jam-packed show this week to talk about all of the drama that's been happening in the games industry. The big three all had some issues this week from Xbox's business update to Sony's poor financials to Nintendo's rumors around the delay of Switch 2. We discuss why Nintendo is still coming out on top of a bad week and the future for Switch 2 is still bright. Also in this episode, we share a really interesting storytime about Mr. Iwata and the head of Ubisoft Yves Guillemot. We also do a fun Princess Peach transformation bracket and see which transformation comes out on top! In the games we're playing section, we're talking about Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth and of course the game du jour Helldivers II. We wrap it up with questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers.
