It’s been a busy week in video games! Join Patrick, Janet, Chia, and Rob as they share chaotic stories of trying to pre-order Switch 2, what Switch 2 says about the future of physical games, the parent company of IGN suing Open AI, and what to make of union contract negotiations stalling at multiple companies.
