This week’s episode revolves around the Nintendo Direct presentation. The guys also mock PlayStation fans and Geoff Keighley, and discuss Callisto Protocol and Vampire Survivors.
Aside from the Nintendo Direct, the news includes:
There is also some Listener feedback.
The Xbox 360 saw a huge jump last week with Tales of Vesperia from Namco Bandai, but has dropped back down to normal sales (about none). Some are saying it’s mainly because of a short supply as the 360 sold out in Japan as a result of Tales of Vesperia.
In other news, the PlayStation 3 still isn’t selling very well, a bit more than the PlayStation 2 but nothing like the PSP. The DS holds the record yet again, no surprise there, but we always though the 360 was losing to the Wii and PS3. Although the Wii isn’t doing bad it’s not at the same crazy sales pace it is here in the United States.
The drop in sales for the 360 was fast, hopefully it was indeed due to out-of-stock issues, else that drop was faster than the drops we’ve seen here for GTA IV or MGS4!

Ubisoft is coming back with the Assassin’s Creed games, but the guys also discuss the sheer Scottishness of Still Wakes the Deep, Farming Simulator 25 announced, 20 TB NVMe drives for under $300, Final Fantasy 14 producer Yoshi-P apologizing, Space Marine 2 public beta test canceled, and Forza Horizon 4 to be delisted.
The news also includes:
Let us know what you think.

We had to take a week off due to a death in the family. My grandmother passed away from Alzheimer late last week and we had to spend the beginning of the week with the family and the events that come with the passing.
We’ll be back next week in full force. So, here is a 39 second podcast explaining it, hosted by Liam our son.
Hi guys.
Thanks for the episode, i had the time to listen to it while i was driving to a concert 🙂
I hope all the Nintendo games, that are coming are going to be as fun as the look like. The remake is worth a try i think .. we will see 🙂
Star Citizen … puhh .. everyone is so hyped about it .. for me iots completly uninteresting .. i dont like the setup. Maybe if i will see my friends play it .. dont know.
And the Metroidvania game i meant was not Prince of Persia .. i will listen to the epdisoe (or the beginning) again and try to find out what name do you say.
So keep on with the good work guys, stay healthy and have fun playing games 🙂
