This week we're going to talk about why we can't say if The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is better than The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. We dive into why we just aren't ready to make that decision. Also in this episode, we share our PlayStation Showcase predictions and tell you a very embarrassing story about a horrible mishap that happened when we were at Nintendo with Capcom. In games we are playing, we are of course still really deep in Tears of the Kingdom. One of us did a dungeon so we share our experiences with that. Don't worry, no spoilers. We go through a handful of news and of course answer questions from our wonderful Patreon family.

Zelda Week is in full swing and we are mere hours away from the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Are you excited? We are very relieved that this game is finally coming out. We have a Hinox sized episode filled with Zelda goodness. In a very special Nintendo Storytime, we finally tell part 3 of our Mr. Aonuma story but we're joined by a special guest. Rob Tunstall worked on the Localization team at Nintendo and we worked really close together on all things Zelda at Nintendo. In our Never A Minute segment, we keep the good vibes going and share our top 3 favorite Zelda moments. We have a handful of games we've been playing that we talk about before we transition fully to Tears of the Kingdom come next week. We also have a pretty big news section where we talk about Zelda leaks, the recent Nintendo Live updates and if we think there will be a Nintendo Direct in June. We wrap it all up with questions from our amazing Patreon family.

This week we're sharing our final thoughts about The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom with you since we're about a week away from launch. Did Nintendo do enough to market this game? What needs to be in the game for it to be game of the year? And we talk about our final expectations. Also in this episode, we tell you a story about a time when Krysta messed up big time in front of Mr. Aonuma working on the launch of A Link Between Worlds. Oops!

We have a huge episode today with a ton of goodness so let's get into it. We're going to be talking about Nintendo and if they are at the tippy top of the company's long history right in this moment. With The Super Mario Bros Movie about to make a billion dollars, the Nintendo Switch having an extended life and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom about to launch, this might be the peak for Nintendo. But as they say, when you get to the top of the top there's no where left to go but down. Can Nintendo keep this momentum or will there be some sort of inevitable crash? In our Nintendo Storytime, we'll be tell you a story about The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks and how the launch of it well... went off the tracks (sorry we couldn't help ourselves). We'll have Zelda themed storytimes from now until Tears of the Kingdom launches so we hope you'll look forward to that! We continue with the Zelda theme in our Never a Minute segment and tell you our current top 5 Zelda games. We go through a lot of news and wrap with questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers.

This week we wanted to talk a bit about this situation with Nintendo and creators who make Zelda mods. We share some of our opinions and give you some insight into what Nintendo thinks about when they do things like this. We've also been thinking a lot about Tears of the Kingdom since we all watched (and loved) the final trailer. We talk about how we're currently feeling about the game and if we can just lock it in now for Game of the Year. We share a really fun storytime about working on the Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony and why it's one of our favorite memories of all time. This week we're skipping our "Never A Minute" segment because we have a MONSTER news section filled with tons of stuff to talk about.

Today we're going to be spotlighting one of our favorite people of all time, Mr. Iwata. We'll tell you why The Super Mario Bros. Movie is actually the culmination of Mr. Iwata's vision for Nintendo that he was championing over 10 years ago. We miss him so much and we're grateful to have known him. We know that seeing the success of the Mario Movie would have made him proud. Also in this episode, we tell you a really fun story about Mr. Miyamoto and his favorite food. It's the end of the first quarter of 2023 so we do a little check in on the games we've played so far and if there is a GOTY contender among them. One of us beat Resident Evil 4 Remake so we go into that in detail in the games we are playing segment. We dig into the news and answer some great questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers.

It's been a very exciting few days because we were invited to The Super Mario Bros. Movie world premiere. Can you believe it? This is the first Nintendo event we've attended since we've left the company and we knew there would be some very important Nintendo people there. That made us a little bit nervous because we weren't sure how those interactions would go. Not to bury the lede but we did have a mini reunion with Mr. Miyamoto and we'll tell you all about how that went in the episode. We're in the Mario movie spirit so for our Never A Minute segment we're doing our very fun and scientific character bracket to determine who is the best character from the movie. We also talk about the games we're playing with some updates on both our progress in Resident Evil 4. We go through a handful of news and talk a bit more about the official cancellation of E3 and wrap it up with some questions from our wonderful Patreon community. It's jam-packed to in the words of Mario LET'S-A GO! 0:00 - 3-2-1 start! 10:10 - Reunited with Mr. Miyamoto at the Super Mario Bros. Movie Premiere... how did it go? 37:33 - Super Mario Bros.

We've had a busy week with the new game play from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom dropping. This got us thinking about the latest discussion around people being disappointed about not knowing much about this game and if that's going to hinder them from buying. We're here to call shenanigans on that! It seems like no matter what Nintendo does with the marketing of Tears of the Kingdom a huge percentage of people are going to buy this game regardless of what they are saying now. Maybe all this complaining is just for the sake of complaining? Also in this episode we tell you a story about a Nintendo event we know you've never heard about. Unfortunately, it was one of the worst events ever. We also have a really fun segment where we take all our big gaming questions to the AI robots (ChatGPT) and let them predict the future of video games. We go through the games we're playing and it's quite a long list since we started Resident Evil 4 and we were at GDC and saw a ton of stuff.  We wrap up with a handful of news and a fistful of questions from our wonderful Patreon family. It's a good one so let's get this going! 0:00 - Let's go! 15:40 - Storytime: Nintendo's worst event you've never heard about 30:09 - Letting AI predict the future of video games 42:49 - Games we are playing 1:12:26 - News news news (Tears of the Kingdom sales discussion) 1:32:25 - Questions from our Patreon subscribers Thank you to our Patreon Super Stars tier!
