  • Shigeru Miyamoto?

    Love this podcast and I’ve been listening for a while but Apple Podcasts says you had Shigeru Miyamoto on.

    If you could point me to that episode that would be great.

  • Good podcast but IGN…

    I really like this podcast overall, some great Nintendo content and contributors. However, IGN have ruined this and other podcasts with adverts. Mainly pushing other podcasts I have absolutely no interest in into my podcast feed with the title ‘You may also like…’ It’s extremely frustrating and I’ll have to unsubscribe completely if it continues.

Mina the Hollower Interview: Burrowing Into Yacht Club’s Masterpiece - NVC 814

The burrow mechanic is central and is designed to influence combat, puzzles, and traversal, with multiple ways to use it across environments, encouraging experimentation and personal playstyle.
Ranking Every Yoshi Game - NVC 810
Q: Tom, what do you think about X in this segment?
The panel agrees that X is a turning point for the series, balancing nostalgia with new ideas, and that future entries should push the concept without abandoning Yoshi's Island's core appeal.
Logan, Peer, and Brian Review The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (Spoiler-Free!) - NVC 806
Q: What should Star Fox be if it returns?
A bigger, deeper game with more on-foot exploration, open-ended elements, and meaningful progression beyond a simple on-rails experience, potentially open-world or roguelite, that gives Fox a new, expanded role.

Q: Are Mario games getting too easy?
Yes, I think they are getting a little easier, possibly to reach a broader audience, but it's also reflection of our increasing skill level.
