*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hi and welcome to episode 58 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast. It seems like remasters or remakes are having a moment. We saw huge popularity with Metroid Prime Remastered and now we're seeing incredibly high Metacritic scores for Resident Evil 4 so we're asking ourselves, which other games deserve this kind of remaster treatment and what are the chances they'll get it? Also in this episode, we share a story about a cursed Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver event that almost ended in disaster. We talk about a big grab bag of games we're playing, go through the news and of course answer questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers.

We are also SO excited about the newly announced Kit & Krysta custom controller made in partnership with the very talented CptnAlex! Visit http://kitandkrystacontroller.com to learn more and pre-order today.

We are wondering, what is the next wave of games that people could remake and get this same kind of reaction? We got a great list. Yeah, we have a really good list. This is pretty interesting because these games are like shooting up the Metacritic charts. Could they be considered Game of the Year contenders? Right. Even as remakes.

Sometimes we get lumped in with other content creators, like, and fine, they're doing their thing, but what... Yeah, yeah, yeah. What do we not have? We don't have insider sources in the shadows. Are they real? Are they not? Right. I know. Are we just putting out, putting out nonsense into

either, see what sticks. We're not putting out like weird click-fatey things that are from like

1:32.3

conjecture or from some rumor mill, whatever. And passing it off as like the hard and cold truth.

1:38.8

No, we're not doing that. What we're telling you guys is like real industry insights because we

That's me. I got the apple. I got the sword. I'm happy. I'm old. I'm in the fairy fountain. I'm frolicking free in the fairy fountain. But you are that grizzled old man. That's you.
