Summary
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hi and welcome back to another episode of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! Today we're finally getting a chance to dig into the latest Nintendo Direct which really changed our minds about where the Nintendo Switch is headed. We know we're getting close to the end of the lifecycle but the golden years sure are going strong with amazing titles launching later this year and into next year. What does this all mean for the future of Nintendo and when will we get the next Nintendo hardware? Do we even need the next hardware or are we all just pretty happy with what we got coming up? Let's discuss. Also in this episode, we share our final thoughts on Tears of the Kingdom after we've both beat the game. One of us is also still playing Final Fantasy 16 and we talk about a few other games we've been dabbling with. We share our thoughts on the drama that is the Microsoft/FTC trial and wrap it up with a few questions from our amazing Patreon community. All of this is coming up. Get comfy!

| 0:00.0 | So this latest Nintendo Direct, has us wondering, do we actually need another Switch, |
| 0:13.6 | or are we like good with the Switch currently, with all the games lined up for this year and next? |
| 0:20.0 | This latest Nintendo Direct knocked our socks off, I think. |
| 0:23.8 | I always reserve the right to flip-flop. |
| 0:26.4 | Not a few weeks ago we put out a video after they announced everybody |
| 0:31.5 | one-two Switch that the Switch had one foot in the grave. |
| 0:36.2 | I'm flip-flopping officially. I'm going completely the other way. I'm doing a 180. The switch has a lot of life left, and I don't need a switch to right now. Let me have what I have. I don't know. We're feeling good about the switch. I mean, I think all of us are drawing the biggest, the world's biggest question mark because |
| 0:54.4 | we didn't know anything after Pickman. But our questions, our queries, have been answered. So we're |
| 1:00.5 | going to dig into all of that. We're going to do a deep dive into the Nintendo Direct. You and I, |
| 1:05.6 | unfortunately, were separate for those Nintendo Direct. So it's going to be fun to catch up together finally because I had to react alone. |
| 1:14.3 | And that was not very fun. |
| 1:15.7 | Yes. |
| 1:16.6 | The last time we did a podcast, you were spiraling about the prospect of a Nintendo |
| 1:22.9 | direct. |
| 1:23.7 | So I think it's good. |
| 1:24.7 | It's only fair to check in on your emotional state before we go in further. |
| 1:29.1 | Exactly. |
| 1:29.8 | I feel okay now. |
| 1:31.4 | I was like literally the worst happened. |
| 1:35.4 | The worst case scenario that could have happened happened to us last week, which was just so ridiculous. |
| 1:42.8 | I feel like Nintendo's listening and they just want to make us miserable or something. Because, yeah, the worst half of people. It was fine. It was fine. I think it was all in your head. It turned out great. You did a great reaction. You can literally do all of this by yourself. You literally don't need me at all. So I may just be announcing my retirement soon and you can |
| 2:02.3 | continue to do this. Krista and Krista. I might not need you, but you know who I do need |
