Hello and welcome to episode 80 (yes 80) of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! Today we are telling stories about our biggest mess-ups when we were working at Nintendo. It's good to get this off our chests but also a bit hard to relive it. This is definitely us at our worst but everyone makes mistakes and nobody's perfect as they say. Also in this episode, we play a rousing game of Kiss Marry Kill Console WarZ (with a z) edition. In the news, we talk about the Xbox 360 store closing. We also deep dive into Diablo 4 since we've been playing together a ton and let us tell you, there are things the game does not tell you about that we've learned! We wrap it all up with questions from our awesome Patreon subscribers.
