Hello beautiful people! We're sad to inform you that SHOCK-tober is officially over but onwards and upwards to better things. Today, we answer a very interesting question from one of our Patreon subscribers today about the state of consoles in Japan. Guess what? It's DEAD and we'll tell you why. We also got our minds on Pokemon these days with Scarlet and Violet coming out soon so we thought we would share a really fun story with you about the very first Pokemon Day. In our Never A Minute segment, we do a draft of Pokemon starters from every generation to build our perfect team. We've also been playing a ton of games lately from Marvel Snap to Persona 5 to Bayonetta 3 and we want to tell you all about it. There's a handful of news and of course a slew of questions from our wonderful Patreon community. It all starts in 3, 2, 1!
