Episode 490: Switch EmulationEpisode 490: Switch Emulation
This week’s episode was recorded on time, but publication was late thanks to power outages again. There’s no discussion of Nintendo’s $70 cardboard arts and crafts project (that’ll be the subject of the next episode), but a Switch emulator does get some discussion.
The news this week:
- Battlefield 1 is setting one of its maps free this week
- LEGO Incredibles 2 and DC Villains games reportedly in the works
- BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle has nabbed a Western release date
- Stardew Valley creator teases multiplayer
This week’s Question of the Week is again “What popular game did you play long after its initial release?”
Episode 407: Third Time’s the CharmEpisode 407: Third Time’s the Charm
If you’re wondering where the podcast has been, it’s been in technical hell. Twice the podcast was recorded each week, and both times there were serious technical issues. This time, we’ve got it right, and even have Paul dropping by to discuss his new book, “Gaymers: the Difference a ‘Y’ Makes: How (and Why) to Make Video Games LGBT Players Care About“. Actually, it’s mostly dominated by a discussion of an episode of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.
Otherwise, the news items include:
- Kojima end of Konami employment
- French consumer advocate suing Valve over violating consumer rights
- Ken Levine states gamers prefer open world to linear narrative
The Question of the Week: “Who is your favorite superhero?”
