0:00.0	Coming up on today's show, more turbulence with E3 announcements.
0:05.4	Nintendo dropped a meaty Zelda trailer and we were at PAX East and have a lot to say about it.
0:13.0	What's good, everybody and welcome to another episode of the What's Good Games Podcast, your
0:32.4	source for video game news, commentary, analysis and funny stuff every Friday. I am Andrea Rene,
0:38.6	joined by the lovely Mrs. Rene Emanuel Peña. What's good, Andrea? What's good, Rene?
0:44.2	And Brittany Bronbocker is here too. I like the way you said meaty earlier.
0:49.0	I mean, that's what's meaty. Is it like 13 minutes long?
0:52.6	Yeah, I've game playing. Another shit. Yeah, it was very meaty.
0:56.4	It was like a mini-direct just for Zelda, but not. But not that close.
1:01.2	We're going to talk about that in just a minute because Y'all know Brittany has thoughts.

1:37.3	Just the GDC just happened. Fact just happened. But no, the world of video games is not to sit on
1:43.3	their laurels. So we will get to the news in just a second. But I want to say thank you to everybody
1:47.1	who took the time to come and see our panel at PAX. It was so good to see people in person.
1:52.5	Also, everybody who came to the meetup. Did Y'all have fun in Boston?
1:55.9	Yeah, it was a lot of fun. And not as cold as I thought it would be because the last
