Hello and welcome to episode 182 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! We can't believe it's been two months since the Switch 2 launched and it definitely feels long and short at the same time. We're going to check in on how we're feeling about the system and if we are optimistic about the future. We also have the triumphant return of Nintendo Storytime this week with an interesting story about the time a natural disaster delayed a Nintendo Direct and all the drama that happened around it. We also react to Nintendo's recent price hikes and their survey on physical games in our news segment and we're playing a TON of new games since we both beat Donkey Kong Bananza. We wrap it all up with some amazing questions from our Patreon subscribers. All this and much more is coming right up!

Today, Switch 2 has been out for two months, and we're just going to look back to see how we're feeling about all of this.

0:17.0

Are we still excited about the Switch 2? How do we feel about the future of the system?

0:22.9

Look ahead a little bit. Two month check-in. Yes. Why not? The doctor. The doctor.

0:28.9

Got to get a check-out. I'm going to listen to your switch two with a stethoscope. Yeah. Say, ah.

0:33.1

I put on my rubber glove. Ew. He doesn't like that.

0:45.4

We also have a very fun story time today, the big return of Nintendo story time.

0:50.8

We have been just a little bit, we've been a little disappointed ourselves because we've been wanting to do more story times, but it's just been a lot going on.

But there were, it was like, oh, this, this seems bad. It was like, oh, it's an 8.8 earthquake. I have a very strongly worded take.
