Summary

The Switch 2 is officially getting a price increase this September, but there’s still time to avoid the price hike. Join Logan Plant, Jada Griffin, Brian Altano, and Seth Macy as they talk about what the price increase means for Switch 2’s future, the new bundle that softens the blow for people ready to pick up the hardware now, and why Nintendo needs to introduce a Switch 2 Lite. Plus, more information from Nintendo’s quarterly financial report, including big numbers for Pokemon Pokopia and Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, a very slow start for Mario Tennis Fever, and the final totals for Switch 2’s impressive first year on the market. Stick around for a ton of thoughts on Star Fox, including why we’re totally okay with it being another Star Fox 64 remake. Finally, we talk about what we’re playing, including Mixtape, Zelda: Twilight Princess, and the Best Buy kiosk demo for Yoshi and the Mysterious Book. Logan drove there after work just for you, dear listener. 00:00:00 - Intro & Nintendo's Quarterly Financial Report 00:31:09 - Takashi Tezuka is retiring 00:33:00 - The Star Fox Remake 01:01:12 - What We're Playing: Twilight Princess 01:08:57 - Mixtape 01:19:01 - Shogun Showdown 01:23:06 - Yoshi and the Mysterious Book 01:28:18 - Mina The Hollower & Outro Join the IGN Discord: https://discord.gg/43XkkFSG3 Learn more about your ad choices.
