This episode follows the landmark 500th episode, and this next episode is dominated by Nintendo, both in the news and looking back at the Gaming Flashback for Wii Music and the infamous E3 performance starring Reggie Fils-Aime and Cammie Dunaway.
The news includes:
- Nintendo Labo first week sales sluggish in Japan, UK
- Atari announces Atari VCS pre-sale begins May 30th on IndieGogo
- Eastfound looks to scratch that retro Zelda itch
- Nintendo starts moving to a Wii-like “non-gamer” strategy for the Switch
All of this and Listener Feedback.
It seems Miyamoto let it slide that there will be a Pikmin game arriving in the future, for which systems? Probably the Wii if we had to guess, but it wouldn’t be surpising to see it on both their hit product lines.
