Hello and welcome to episode 223 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! Can you believe we're almost at the one year anniversary of the Nintendo Switch 2? It's wild that it's already here so we wanted to check in and see if Nintendo's kept all their promises that they made to us when the system launched. We'll give them either a pass or fail on some of the very definite things they said and then give an overall score for our year with Nintendo Switch 2. Also in this episode, we talk about who we think is developing the upcoming Star Fox game and apparently The Legend of Zelda Movie is now releasing earlier. We're also playing the new game Mina the Hollower and we have a lot to share about our experience so far. All this and so much more is coming right up!

0:00.0	Today!
0:01.0	It's almost been a year since the Switch 2 came out, which is crazy to think about.
0:15.0	Time went by so fast, I did.
0:17.0	I feel like.
0:18.0	But we wanted to look back on all the promises that Nintendo made when the
0:23.0	Switch 2 was coming out and then do a check to see if they kept them or not. Lies? If there are
0:28.8	lies. Deceptions? If there are lies, we're going to find them. It is very close to the one-year
0:34.8	anniversary. We're not quite there, but we're close enough to say like, yeah, either these things happened or they didn't. Yeah. And we're going to be checking in over the next couple weeks on a couple different angles with the anniversary of the Switch 2 launch. So it's going to be an exciting time. It is. It can't believe. It's only been a year? Has it feel like long and short at the same time?
0:54.3	It's felt quite long actually.
0:55.9	It felt long to you.
0:56.4	Like oh surely we're on year two and a half of the switch? She was like, no, we're barely at the end of year one. Good thing we're not on year two and a half. It's going to be year two and a half. I know. But it's just launching in the middle of the year in June, kind of like messes with your head.
1:11.6	That's true.
1:11.9	That is true.
1:13.1	When did we start all of this? It's true. It's very true. And there is a lot of things that happened sort of towards the front half of launch and then we sort of had a quiet period. So the sort of, I don't know, the cadence of the things were not always even throughout the months, the 12 months of the year. Yes. So it feels kind of weird, but I'm ready to dig into it. I seriously can't believe it's already been a year. Like this time last year, it was such a anticipatory time. But yeah, we're still going to have a lot of fun with the anniversary, so I'm excited about that. Yes. Happy birthday to you, by the way. It's your birthday today. Thank you. It's a very special podcast because we are recording it on your birthday. It's a birthday pod. Wow. Is that ever happened? I don't think that's ever happened. I guess it's never been on, yeah, like a week. It hasn't been on a weekday in a while, so. Interesting. Interesting. Wonderful stuff.
