Hello and welcome to episode 90 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! We're super excited today to start talking about The Game Awards. Yes, it is almost that time of year. Can you believe it? Today we'll be predicting which games will be nominated for the big categories. Remember that these are not our personal picks but what we think the TGA judging panel will likely choose. This is such a banner year with so many incredible games that there are bound to be games that would have made it other years that might get snubbed. We're here for the drama! Also in this episode, we talk about Nintendo's latest (bad) guidelines around the Smash community and tell you what those latest Nintendo patents really mean. We also have a fun storytime about Krysta's doggie Chowder who was in a Wii Fit commercial. We both also started playing Spider-Man 2 and have a lot of thoughts. All this and more is coming up!

snubbed. I know, right? And I think this is the year where there is no clear, like, this is one thing that's going to take everything. So it's going to make it exciting and interesting. And that's, I'm here with the popcorn. I'm ready to, like, let the drama. Jeff is ready. Jeff better be ready. Jeff is licking his chops at this year. Jeff needs to get some extra security.

talk about as much on the channel, that's a great way to do it. There's so many inside jokes now from the behind the scenes that we can't even share. Jailed Yoshi. You guys won't get it. If you're curious. Yeah, there's so many inside jokes, long-running ones that are just part of the behind-the-scenes, which I love. It's become Kit and Krista community lore, as it were.
