Hello and welcome to episode 147 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! Today we're going to be reflecting on Nintendo's 2024 and giving it a letter grade based on everything that's happened this year. This goes beyond games that were released and we're going to judge them by the whole picture of entertainment things, non-game surprises and if we think they have good momentum leading into 2025. Also in this episode, we react to even more Switch 2 rumors and what it means for Nintendo closing the eShop in China. We're playing even more games as we try to make sure we're ready for the game of the year discussions so we've been spending some time with Stellar Blade, Black Myth Wukong and Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake. We close it out with some great questions from our Patreon community. All this and more is coming right up!
