The recent announcement of the next Mario movie as The Super Mario Galaxy Movie got us thinking about the next 3D Mario game. Now that Nintendo is starting to truly become an entertainment company, does it make sense that the next 3D Mario game is Super Mario Galaxy 3? We want to study the clues and bread crumbs and see how likely this is. Also in this episode, we go through the rest of the games coming out in 2025 and talk about which ones we're definitely playing and which we'll be skipping. We also have a big new game we've been playing - Hades 2 on Nintendo Switch 2. WOW! Hear our deep impressions of the game so far. And...we react to Nintendo's decision to lay off hundreds of contract employees from the contact center. We wrap it all up with questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers! All this and so much more is coming right up! 0:00 - It's officially fall! 8:12 - What IS the next 3D Mario game? 31:00 - 2025 games we're playing and skipping 57:27 - Hades 2 impressions!

We've been playing the demo for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds and liking it quite a bit but we can't help but see some similarities between this game and Mario Kart 8. So we're asking ourselves the question - is Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds the traditional kart racing game many people have been looking for since Mario Kart World is a bit of a different experience?

We are still thinking about the big Nintendo Direct last week and we want to dig deeper into people's reaction to the Direct. Tons of games were announced and Nintendo shared a lot of news but somehow, there are fans who still don't seem very excited about what's to come. Why is this? Is the Nintendo Direct formula, something that Nintendo started 10+ years ago, still working to meet Nintendo's goals when there are so many expectations placed on these presentations? We dig into the history and the original goals of a Direct and examine if it's still working for Nintendo. Also in this episode, we're playing a handful of new indie games and we discovered some new details about Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 on Nintendo Switch 2. We wrap it all up with questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers. All this and more is coming right up! 0:00 - Settle on in! 9:07 - Nintendo Direct expectations are out of control 54:16 - Games we are playing 1:17:20 - News news news 1:34:39 - Questions from our Patreon community Patreon Shout-outs! - All Hail the Final Boss - Aaron Hash - Thank you Super Stars: Ben Eichorn, MaruMayhem, Eigenverse, KissMyFlapjack, Mike Chin, Roy Eschke, Switchingitup_, vgmlife, Link The Hero of Winds, Angela Bycroft, Thomas O’Rourke, Kyle LeBoeuf, Roberto Nieves, Fredrik Ulf Konradsson, Andrew Youhas, Chilly, Simon, krashuri, Master Discord, Ash, Ajay Kudlass, Fortygig, Travis Torline, EchoLadair, That’sSoOLANELL, MSMPokegamer, Cameron, Rburns, Aigami, Kitt 10K, Adrien, Nafon Clover, TheSharkAmongMen Follow Us! https://www.patreon.com/kitandkrysta https://twitter.com/kitandkrysta https://www.tiktok.com/@kitandkrysta https://www.instagram.com/kitandkrysta/ http://www.facebook.com/kitandkrysta/ https://bsky.app/profile/kitandkrysta.bsky.social -Kit & Krysta

In the Nintendo Direct last week, we saw some really amazing looking amiibo but then after we learned how much they would cost and we were a bit shocked. We wanted to look back at the history of amiibo and examine how things started with amiibo priced at $12.99 and now we're seeing amiibo priced at $49.99! A $50 amiibo is wild and is almost as expensive or sometimes even more expensive than most some games - so what happened? How did we get here? Let's discuss!

The rumor mill is spinning about a potential Nintendo Direct this week and that's got us thinking about leaks at Nintendo. Why are there SO many leaks coming out of Nintendo lately?

The Nintendo Switch 2 game key card situation just took an unexpected turn and we want to dig into one publisher's specific reason they HAD to use a game key card to bring their game to Switch 2.

We've been thinking a lot about what Nintendo's long-term plan is to get new younger players into their gaming ecosystem. With gaming habits changing to SO much in the last few years, Nintendo is going to have to do some other things if they want to stay relevant with the younger generation. It's an interesting time to look into the question since the Switch 2 is selling so well, but this is a topic where they really need to look ahead into the future.
