Then, they move into final thoughts on last week’s Nintendo Direct, including pricing for Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave, concerns about Splatoon Raiders, and hands-on impressions of Star Fox, Rhythm Heaven Groove, Pictonico, DK Challenge, and a lot more. 00:00:00 - Intro & Ocarina of Time Remake 00:34:51 - Lies of Pi 00:37:02 - Nintendo Switch Sports 00:39:59 - Xenoblade Genesis 00:41:28 - Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave 00:43:07 - Splatoon Raiders 00:48:48 - Rhythm Heaven Groove Hands-on 00:54:40 - Starfox Demo Impressions 01:03:04 - Dysmantle 01:05:58 - FF7 Remake 01:08:20 - Pictonico! 01:12:50 - DK Challenge 01:17:47 - Alarmo New DLC, Nintendo Music Updates, & Outro Learn more about your ad choices.

Mina the Hollower is a 10/10 masterpiece on IGN, and this week, some of the folks behind Yacht Club’s latest triumph are here to talk all about making Mina over the last six years. Logan Plant and Brian Altano are joined by designer Sean Velasco and programmer David D’Angelo, and they dive into Mina’s intricate world design, fast-paced combat, clever puzzle-solving, and a whole lot more. You’ll learn about Yacht Club’s huge attention to detail in NPC interactions, item placement, movement, and everything else that went into making Mina the Hollower one of our favorite games in a very long time. Plus, David and Sean share their biggest Nintendo inspirations, from heavy hitters like Zelda: A Link to the Past, to deeper cuts like Mole Mania. Light spoiler warning: The conversation is spoiler-free, but if you don’t want to see any of Mina’s areas or bosses, we recommend just listening to this episode, or coming back after you’ve experienced her adventure for yourself. #MinaTheHollower #yachtclubgames #gaming Learn more about your ad choices.

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is the latest Switch 2 exclusive, and this week's NVC is all about breaking down what works and what doesn't in this experimental platformer. Join Logan Plant, Tom Marks, Nick Limon, and Kinda Funny's Tim Gettys as Tom and Tim talk about their uneven experiences with Yoshi, including how making discoveries for the first time is charming, but there's not much joy left to find after each box has been checked. Plus, the panel talks about Yoshi's identity crisis and how this risky direction doesn't quite solve the problems the series has faced over the last 30 years. Stick around to hear about Pictonico, that weird new mobile WarioWare-like game coming next week, and Nick's trip to the Nintendo Museum in Kyoto, Japan. 00:00:00 - Intro & Yoshi and the Mysterious Book Review Discussion 00:46:10:09 - Pictonico! 00:52:53:47 - Nintendo Museum & Outro Learn more about your ad choices.

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.
