Hi and welcome to episode 144 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! We're itching to dig into Mario & Luigi: Brothership after playing the game throughout the weekend. This is the first time in a long time where Nintendo has had such a polarizing game where some people really love it and some really do not. Let's talk about where we fall on the spectrum. Also in this episode, we talk about the latest update on the Nintendo vs. Palworld lawsuit. We also share our progress on Pokemon TCG Pocket and one of us goes on a little rant about it. We wrap it all up with some great questions from our Patreon community! All this and more is coming right up.

Hello and welcome to episode 139 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! This week we're talking about a topic that has been on our minds for awhile and especially since we came back from Japan. We got to thinking that the most iconic Nintendo developers are rapidly approaching retirement age and will soon be leaving the company. If we think the Switch 2 lifecycle will be similar to the Switch, it means it will last about 7 - 8 years where many of these developers will be well over the age of 65. What does this mean for Nintendo and are they prepared for this eventuality? We dig into all of this on today's episode. Also in this episode, we have been playing so many games. We've beat The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and we started Metaphor ReFantazio after all the hype. We have some news and answer some great questions from our Patreon community. All this and more is coming right up!

0:00 - The end of an era is nigh
12:32 - Switch 2 will be the last generation for these iconic Nintendo developers

Hello and welcome to episode 135 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! With The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom on the horizon, we wanted to talk about the big elephant in the room for Zelda games - the story. We're debating if story is actually important and needed in Zelda games. With the timeline a work in progress (putting it nicely!) and Nintendo refusing to officially acknowledge or put any importance on the story, should fans care? Let's discuss. Also in this episode, we talk about our impressions playing Astro Bot which has taken the world by storm! We discuss how Nintendo might be feeling with PlayStation making a game that feels like a Nintendo game. Does Nintendo care? Are they panicking about Sony copying them? We also react to the latest round of Switch 2 rumors. Do we think there's any truth to the system potentially getting revealed soon or are we getting a bit tired of all this? All this and more is coming right up.
