Last week’s episode was delayed by Jonah producing a new show (The Jonah Falcon Show), then by the tragedy on Sunday, August 26. Now, the podcast recorded last week and the one recorded this week have been merged into one big 2+ hour show.
Last week’s news items included:
- Devil May Cry 5 arrives in March
- Cyberpunk 2077 quests similar to The Witcher 3 ‘in terms of playtime and complexity’
- Rumor: Nintendo planning big Switch upgrade
- Soulcalibur 6 Story Mode and DLC character announced
This past week’s news was simple:
- EA cancels remaining Madden Classic qualifiers
To be fair, the crew ended up talking about other stuff going on during the week, including the the E3 demo for Cyberpunk 2077 that was finally released to the general public. Gaming still brings smiles to people’s faces.
Miyamoto said Nintendo used E3 as a platform for spreading the word to a broad audience based on the media present at the event, they’re not speaking to the core audience. So, if you’re a core audience gamer and you were confused on why Nintendo didn’t build their presentation to be all glitz and glamor, it’s because they weren’t talking to you.
