introducing ourselves and what have we been playing lately let's start with Eric Moore hell yeah yeah what are you going on what are you playing lately I'm here um I actually haven't played anything I

can just keep talking yeah no that's that's all I got I haven't played anything this week I'm I'm I'm a I'm a totally a gamer maybe farming simulator in real life since there's a lawnmower yeah I think I gotta fix it I just had to turn on all the filters and everything I think we're I don't know who it was coming from so uh all right cool uh HMK was good uh I've been playing a lot of Tekken 8 lately like a lot of Tekken 8 man games really good I'm doing a lot better online on ranked than I expected to but you know they didn't touch my goat Lily so I'm chilling so that's what I've been playing I've been playing that and Tuesday the Kingdom like a lot I'm just trying to like 100% everything so Tekken 8 Tuesday the Kingdom that's what I've been playing hell yeah coming back for the first time in I think almost a year super metal Dave how's it going what's up uh going good yeah I've been playing Tekken 8 also I'm addicted to it my my mains right now are uh Victor and uh Dragunov um oh nice yeah really hard hitting uh characters but really easy sorry what was the second one's name Dragunov oh I heard something else right but uh but yeah uh yeah Victor is really easy to learn for new new players and uh he's just really flashy and awesome just a fantastic game one of the best fighting games I've ever played like already it's just so good I've seen a lot of victors like in the early parts of ranked and I'm like man get out of here but then I don't seem as much up the ladder yeah oh I mean it's just it's a really fun game so like I'm I'm a fighting game um I guess casual player so if you're just you want to jump in and play just like go with him or you can go with some other characters too but it's a really really fun game so it's just like it's like a 10 out of 10 I think it's fantastic oh yeah wow how many people are so caliber two man I'm so mad that so caliber is dead again I need to come back like now everyone wants weapon fighters to be in tech and I'm like where are y'all when so cover six was out hmm yeah it's all about that dollar man it's just been on my mind lately because we had the whole game cue trademarks was like man you know if nsl came back that would be like you know with the link in there like that that would be like an ideal like game cuban is so on switch to someday right yeah or me there's no like fighter to get a new so caliber that would be nice yeah on on the switch there's no like real like a big fighter besides smash brothers they got the terrible Mortal Kombat one yeah there's dragon ball fighters actually it's a pretty good port like it looks I had it on on ps4 and then I got it on switch and it looks like the same game come on what poke in the room it oh yeah pockin arms pockin you're right you're right no I don't know it's it's poking it's poking it's poking I mess it up is it like supposed to be like Pokemon mixed with Tekken is that like poking so like poke Tekken poking yeah yeah geez you I guess you could argue pecking but there's an oh what what is okay I'm also one thing too also on my vacation I got to I got to go to the famous galloping ghost arcade uh in the in Illinois have you guys ever been there no but now I'm interested it's the it's the world's largest arcade um and it has over a thousand machines yeah if you look at the galloping ghost arcade and I've never been there but it's one it must just be one of them in New Hampshire I think it's the one that like Billy Mitchell allegedly broke a record on back in the day yeah I'm not sure if that's if that's there was a lot of cabinets here whoa yeah it's it's an amazing place so like if I was on my my vacation just a few weeks ago and where in Illinois is it like Chicago oh yes in Chicago it's a flat field so it's like a buffet for games yeah you pay an admission fee in all games are set to free and it's over 918 cabinets yeah that is yeah that's kind of like the one here that they charge a fee too I mean it makes that was it man what was your favorite game that you played in there it's it's awesome I mean they just have all all the old all the old classics to there they even had Mortal Kombat one like the console version like made up in an arcade cabinet they had they had so many games to play a bunch of like gun shooters I played a alien versus predator um house they're dead they even had the original X-Men arcade game where it's a it's a versus game like the fighters you know because a lot of people don't don't remember remember those games where uh before Marvel versus Calcom they had their own individual games so that Marvel Super Heroes uh Children of the Adam X-Men Children of the Adam yeah yeah exactly X-Men Children of the Adam Marvel Super Heroes and then Captain versus SNK all the games are there childhood Carl Jobs on the on the podcast because the one near me in New Hampshire says we are the largest arcade in the world today that sounds like a competition okay I think you might mean by size because they say we offer over 600 and you said 900 but they also have a 20 million bowling alley at an 18 hole indoor mini golf so maybe they're counting like size yeah probably like square foot maybe numbers it's closer to a thousand now for the one in Illinois yeah look at look at this guy man he's full of shit this this old timer largest arcade get out of here he wants to just balance the money the balance of new and old I mean obviously there's gonna be a lot of retro stuff but like is there like any new stuff too um well that's the thing though like they they had Mortal Kombat 1 there which is not an arcade game they had to actually actually build it for the arcade the arcades are a dying place that's why it's like okay it's so cool to play games the arcade because they don't really make that menu games no in the arcade these days it's all I miss it yeah I miss I miss I miss arcades yeah that's a really cool super fun if you're ever in the area you gotta go it's it's 50 bucks to get in but you can spend all day there it's totally nice yeah definitely sure that sounds awesome mm that's what I've been up to New Hampshire one has the Guinness Book of World Records but we all know how the Guinness Book of World Records goes we do yeah yeah oh yeah especially game stuff yeah that your way of thinking like what oh is that what it is it's all it's all about money you have to pay a fee for them to show up and then if you have like some arbitrary like you know record then they here you go you're in wow so I need to come up with something and just pay money and I'll be in the books let's do it world's biggest micro penis I fucking got it okay I gotta get it shortened enough to the point where it still qualifies as micro but it's the biggest possible I was confused there for a second yeah you know what that's reminded me of that sounds like when Matt Hardy was trying to lose weight in order to be the heaviest cruiser weight individual to win the cruiser weight title yes same definitely same energy concept yeah we're gonna start measuring in really small fractions it's would you rather have the biggest micro penis or the smallest regular penis oh my you want to be the biggest I choose how about neither neither would be great um all right I'll just restart what you've been playing at least Pokemon Scarlet Violet DLC yeah yeah I finally I finally forced myself to play it and it's fun like I'm seeing like the the story at first like it's kind of um it feels a little bit too childish for me but as I kind of go a little bit deeper it's starting to kind of show a little bit of depth with the characters I'm still in the first part right but I've already can tell like it's a continuation and so that's cool I don't I hate it whenever Pokemon comes up that we just start complaining about it but I mean I beat the main game I actually really enjoyed despite all the issues and I'm getting into the DLC I like it but I there's the textures suck they're just terrible like I'm telling you I love Scarlet I think the game is really fun it's just held together by duct tape that's it yep pretty much I mean it's it's something it's kind of weird to me right so the thing is especially in the beginning of the game like there are moments where it like pauses and it's a cutscene but there are other times it pauses and it's just because the game's trying to figure out what's going on and you're not sure for like about a second uh so it's just weird that a year later with the DLC there are still these issues um and I feel bad almost like bringing it up but I mean I'm just telling you about my experience right um but I mean yeah the story is good and I just kind of hope that they rectify this I mean actually we heard from uh what Andy Robinson said that he heard like from inside right like not not a public so that's actually to me that's actually bigger news right because this is not someone trying to save face this is behind the scenes and so more suggestive that actually something is going on to rectify the quality issues and scholar and bias so we'll see what happens I pray for a legends game this year but we'll see but anyways yeah the DLC I'm playing it it's all right game freak is like hey we need that switch too so we can have our game run at all yeah thank you Nintendo thanks 90% of people still play it on switch one and still have the issues though but yeah at least you'll be able to advertise a better version yeah all right uh I am so bricked up right now what are you even playing oh shit sorry I was on a different video before video I thought you were talking about yourself Nate I was like oh that's interesting I thought I changed my hand but if I ever come to a show bricked up I don't think so I don't think it's happened I mean then you're not excited about the show that's the only way to take it so I was in um I was in Florida this past week the week before I was in Fort Myers this past week I was in I was just outside of Tampa like St. Pete area and um so I didn't get to play a lot but I did now I own Dead Cells like a physical copy but I've got like a few different switches and on my OLED um I had never played it on that and you know how like Dead's it's a roguelite so like once you play it and beat it you've always gotten that far so like to play it as like from completely from day one like a fresh experience is pretty fun I don't know how many of you guys have played it but um so it's it's kind of like a fun game to actually play like completely fresh so there the e-shop sale you could get Dead Cells and all the DLCs which I'd never got the DLCs a couple of them are free but a couple of them are like five bucks on the Castlevania ones like 10 bucks so it was the base game and all the DLCs for 25 bucks and I've been playing that again and man I just really love those kind of games like Hades Returnal I know it's PlayStation but I bought the Binding of Isaac like those games are awesome and I just like get sucked into them and just have so much fun so I played that this week even though I couldn't play a lot I had some fun with that game man you sound like a Metroid fan well Metroid's not like exactly like roguelite yeah but like um have you have you played God of War Ragnarok yeah I love that game yeah have you tried out Valhalla yet no it's roguelike oh really it's it's God of War Ragnarok but roguelike God of War Ragnarok I thought was so much better than the first one it's probably my favorite PS5 game the story was unbelievable like I would like go to bed at night like dreaming about what would happen next I was so into it so I've been meaning to play the DLC I haven't gotten a chance yet but maybe when I oh you're really gonna like it now that that's not I know that you're really into roguelikes oh it's just for the record I was trying to segue just just just so I do like I am a Metroid fan though it's just not that kind of game but it's not sure I haven't run yet what are we you're bricked up so oh anyways uh believe it or not I've been playing PS5 lately and for the first time I ever started playing Horizon Zero Dawn oh okay yeah the first one yeah the first one how do you feel about it uh I'm not that beautiful and yeah but it's pretty good I guess like way better like it's kind of overwhelming at the beginning yeah like it takes a while but like it takes longer than it should to be fair like this is a critique but it is one of those games that like 15 hours in it starts to feel really good oh like two things yeah it's not as bad as like Starfield in terms of like getting into it but it does have that it's all right I want to play for a bit and was so bad I'm going to force myself to get through it because dude I think I think I like the first that's the opposite of God of War I like the first horizon better than saying much I think well I guess it'll be I don't know I'm not far enough in to really have any super big critiques other than like it's I'm not super into it yet it's just it's it's okay right now but I know I feel like it's the same way at the end but it feels like it's building toward something and we'll just I'll just have to I'll say that was the only way to that one's worse like I think to me the story is a little bit more engaging than horizon but but the gameplay there are people who beat the game and never actually learn how to play the game for horizon or zeno blade for zeno blade for zeno yeah I get that too yeah yeah because like the thing zeno blade 2 is the gameplay system is so fun but you got to take time to like learn it and the training rules don't fall off into like just 15 hours in and I'm like that's like the main issue with me with zeno blade 2 but man when the game opens up doesn't oh I love that game so good yeah and then quickly before we get into our first stop I just want to make sure that I shout out our podcast patrons it's the end of

topic for that episode just come over to patreon.com slash Nintendo Prime all right yeah you really are bricked up man you got a real body there literally let's uh hey I had a script for this I it was supposed to be done earlier the message was conveyed I think but it was it was to convey the message yeah plus can we change our name to the bricked up podcast now all right we'll talk about it later we'll put it in that we're tabling the discussion the host show meeting we'll return to we'll circle back we'll circle back so our first topic I thought this was appropriate uh since a certain person on our show one little viral when it came to general media over some metroid stuff recently just because very well researched stuff fact-based information a little speculation of course on top you gotta have some speculation otherwise what's the fun you're done I mean look you can just like here's the information to be done in a minute that's not any fun you gotta connect dots you gotta put things together so what the hell do we know about Metroid Prime 4 why why are people like all of a sudden out of nowhere talking about this like we're starting to assume all day about this because he's put together a laundry list of Metroid Prime 4 videos for a game that we haven't actually seen anything but a logo and I guess you want to argue art on their twitter profile yeah I don't have to say like but the art literally yeah we think it's Metroid Prime 4 but what if they were actually dread teasing I have no idea they wouldn't make dread but anyways because like yeah yeah the art no it's factually Metroid Prime 4 because it's on their it's on their hiring page yeah the actual picture but yeah anyway yeah you know that but uh yeah it's blue exactly that's all you know so if you if you want to know the info just watch videos of my channel I'm done no I'm kidding yeah basically I mean the videos are kind of long so I'll try to try to sum it up but sure what the best the best kind of the best kind of leaks are when you find real information I think it's not it's not a rumor it's not like something like you know like someone's told you know said he said yeah it's actual real information that I found um and it was removed like within 24 to 48 hours after I posted it in the video and I have all the screenshots in there and everything so I posted it two weeks ago and it was pre-planned I was on my vacation like I like I said in Chicago going to the arcade and everything and then Andres uh dn me and said hey what's up your your link has been removed in your video so I had to like stop everything and just like fix that and figure out what happened um using the way back machine because the proof is all there so so basically um it was revealed uh in LinkedIn and through some job uh profiles on a website that Retro Studios hired some play a play tester who had experience um and previously playing Call of Duty games and he actually said in his profile that he's currently testing Metroid Prime 4 for the past 10 months and he listed the software that he uses to test to test the game all like way too much detail basically right so for like a company like Retro Studios probably saw that after I posted it and they they got rid of it right away but he said that um in his profile that he's worked he's been testing that game and you you know and and basically the time range was very similar to other games that he tested so it seemed like the game is very close to being completed because it's in the testing range right um just like what I kind of had been going back and forth with Andres about this with his channel because he's he had a really uh I think credible rumor about Metroid Prime 4 last year being uh completed um and I think this information backed it up and it's real information too plus on top of that I also found found information from a uh a company named Next Gen Dreams who uh their information was also removed from Retro Studios' LinkedIn page because their CEO was listed as one of their employees um and which which you can't find out because they removed it um and and if you know how LinkedIn works but LinkedIn it's harder to find things with way back machine with personal information but on websites you can still find it so they listed Retro Studios as their uh partner and on their profile Next Gen Dreams they they list all these their accomplishments and everything and one of their main things that they do is they help studios with debut trailers but they're they're also like a developer for hire right so they have all these all these special special uh you know attributes that a team like Retro Studios would want for a debut trailer um so I was like whoa this is awesome so let's let's show this let's show the proof let's show the you know them listed there and everything the course the site removed Retro Studios from their from their partners partner list and said aha you know you're not gonna you're not gonna hide this from us you know so you use the way back machine you can see it and everything so um so yeah of course the speculation part comes in when you speculate that hey the game is pretty much done and it's just waiting to be revealed at this point because they have all the tools there to have the game completed the game's been in Retro Studios hands for five years now you got to think the game is looking pretty darn good and polished so I think they're just waiting for that switch to reveal and then we're gonna see the game yeah yeah um it's it's just crazy because like you know you mentioned how like because both they did not report on the same rumor right back in March literally March of 2020 2023 right and the job posting is from March of 2023 so it just lines up perfectly when that information became privy to us and what's also interesting right so assuming they're in the play testing stage right there was that other room we heard from the Xbox era podcast that the game looks visually unbelievable and that the environments look like kind of vast and are similar to Halo Infinite right not necessarily open world which is what they kind of harped on but just they it gave them kind of that sense and so that makes sense if maybe they're hearing from people who are already playing the game right and so like just these like little things that have popped up they all kind of they're fitting the same picture and so to me that just makes it more interesting and then when you made your video and then they take down that stuff like to me that's just they would have been better off not taking it down right right yeah so I had to make a I had to make a second video the following week when I got back from Chicago to prove that the information was not fake because if they had removed it so I had to show in the second video all the secondary proof of more of the of you know the breadcrumbs basically that they left behind from removing at the first time so yeah it's still all there you know once you post something on the internet you know it's it's always there yeah to a certain extent so yeah it's really exciting I think and it just shows that you know usually when companies are getting ready to show something they're looking for the stuff like like hawks like they want to once you once it's posted a little get rid of that right away because we're we're in the stage we're about to show this game and we don't want people to know and also it kind of can mess up their current plans for the current switch as well because they're trying to still sell systems until they announce switch to and it's the worst kept secret in the world at this point everyone knows it's it's about to be announced probably my guess is like uh end of March or early April do you guys want a juicy rumor that I just learned about this morning you may not have heard about because I saw it in Spanish yeah I got it I gotta I gotta rewatch it so you know take this several grains of salt because one that's my my initial interpretation when I was grogging the morning listening right I want to like you know I haven't made a video or done like due diligence yet right but that and then also it's still a rumor on top of that right but apparently final or late dev kits are coming from Nintendo switch to to the west and there was talk that rector studios may be one of those companies receiving one of those late switch to dev kits so if they're getting a late version switch to dev kit right there's a strong implication that they're gearing up prime for for switch to which probably is something we're all assuming anyway if this is true but uh you know it's just interesting to think about yeah my my guess is better studios is working on the main better studios core team is working on that version of the game for switch to and Nintendo is also assisting with the version for the switch as well as my guess because I do think this is going to be a uh game that really shows off what this new console can do and it's going to be extremely polished so I can't wait to see it I think we're going to talk more about this during our like bingo predictions because but I've been like back and forth on how Nintendo is going to handle Metroid Prime 4 because on one hand I'm thinking you know it might make a lot of sense to showcase Prime 4 in a February Direct to go forehand maybe show it in a way that's a little cryptic kind of like that first years of the kingdom trailer right where it's not necessarily gameplay but it kind of gives us an idea of what to expect and then when they give us a switch to teaser we see like little clips and then in maybe a summer event that's where they're like hey so this is a switch to version there's also switch one version and so looks good that's kind of in my thinking but then what if they don't have a February like a normal big direct it's like just like a mini or something that like that or partner showcase and we don't see prime four until they literally show a switch to so I'm just not sure I'm kind of divided in which way they go I'd be down for that but you got to think too Retro Studios hasn't shown a brand new game directly from them since Tropical Freeze right right so I don't know the last game they worked on like not counting Metroid Prime we mastered I don't know that part they assisted but but I just mean first original brand new game it's not a port you know right they they worked on that funky Kong model for years yeah I mean so what's the point you're getting at though so it's no no I'm saying I would be totally down for Metroid Prime for reveal trailer on the current switch because I do think it will look really good on the current switch too as well because there's look how good Metroid Prime remastered looks I'm just a little I'm just I'm just more leaning towards them be using that as a blast off showcased game tour de force for the switch to so you are feeling a direct reveal then and before switch to no I said I'll be down for that I don't think they will though okay but I'll be all for it I want to see the game right but but they they may just show like another like extremely detailed super detailed Unreal Engine five powered logo for us to see if I'm just kidding I mean maybe what they could do is they show off Metroid Prime 2 and then they have someone they have Kensuke Tanabe come out on stage say hey we hell have more details of Metroid Prime 4 later this year kind of like when Anuma came out in a video when they announced Skyward Sword HD like at least we knew we were going to get more info on the game later that year yeah I think that at least then we know okay we're going to actually see this game this year like giving us that confirmation is better than not saying anything I would totally be down for that absolutely also I would really hope that they along with that show of Metroid Prime 2 and 3 as well then yeah you know so hey man I'm down for seeing the game period I honestly don't care but as far as my gut instinct I really think they're holding it off for Switch 2 that's just my gut instinct well didn't someone say last week that like for they for Pikmin 4 they just announced Pikmin 4 and the release date of that and they didn't say anything about Pikmin 1 or 2 until we already had known the release date for Pikmin 4 for a while technically Pikmin 1 do came out before Pikmin 4 did which makes sense which would make sense yeah they're announced like like once or so but I could see them just focusing on Metroid Prime 4 you know what I mean doing a similar thing and then before Prime 4 comes out actually releasing 2 and 3 remastered yeah but then that depends on how much did how much do they believe people will stew on each individual game because I mean like remastered has been like one remastered has been out for like a minute right so are they gonna like release 2 and 3 like back to back or around the same time because I think it's gonna be together like Pikmin 1 and 2 you think so well the reason I think so is because like if they release them one at a time you get less people buying each one got right so the most people will buy one then slightly less people will buy two and then even less will buy three so I think for that reason it makes sense to just put them together and then you can charge more than what you would charge for just two you know multiplayer please yeah well I think Prime 4 will give us that but I I really liked the 2 multiplayer all of you was like it's boring I'm like it was a good fun side experience I don't really remember it that much to be honest I don't think I played it that much the multiplayer you would need there's a lot of ways they can go with 2 and 3 they could do that the whole like make it like grandiose and the full remake you know the graphically or they can just do the HD thing and release it close to release a prime 4 ultimately though like personally I'm I'm ready for prime 4 I play 2 and 3 so much and one you have those upscaled you know modded versions on your channel like yes oh yeah for sure play three of them yeah but uh but yeah like definitely I would prefer to play it on the actual hardware of course when they they uh re-release it the remaster so it either way guys like I'm I'm down for all that stuff just show us something down to clown we need Metroid Prime 4 no so the the question if they if they announce Metroid Prime 4 release date this month at a direct would you dare I say get all bricked up not me yes there will be a strong response oh yeah you can't control it spiritually but I don't know why they're called feelings I don't know what the I'm still trying to sort out what being bricked up means but Metroid Prime 4 release date October 25th 2024 you know when man like week I will also be surprised like like just genuinely and like you know you're not like it's a holiday and it's kind of sick it's like that's a good time it's a Friday yeah if this game comes out this year I would be genuinely surprised didn't drag yeah yeah and then Mario the new 3d Mario in November say they launched switch to in October or whatever you know Pokemon finally or flip flop yeah there we go that's the whole the huge victory and now switch to in the April we'll start that uh campaign going for the advertisements get your pre-orders ready get your money down and you're you're you're flying for the holidays to banger releases third-party support let's go yeah I'm kind of feeling that but I think Pokemon comes out in November so I think we get like I think we're getting an August or September launch and then one of them is a launch title and then another one's coming out like a month or two later but before Pokemon that's kind of it's like that's our one two three punch Mario they're gonna reveal the switch to in the February Direct and it's gonna release a month after that and then we're gonna get releases throughout the year watch I like it shadow job to switch to no pre-orders just hey it's already in stores guys yeah can you imagine playing this whole time that'll be scary I'll have a hard attack not until it's gonna want to promote this thing like they want to avoid I feel they're gonna want to avoid what happened with the Wii U and try to differentiate the switch and the successor as much as they can with what enough time right yeah andres is is on to something a little bit though I think what was it was it n64 I think they released that in September of 1996 right it's not impossible I got a double check yeah I'll make it right now it's not normal but it's not impossible yeah September 29 1996 the n64 is released in North America yep um so yeah that is possible um also within the first month yeah also the um they've been doing these March early early times in the years as well switch and 3ds um I think the ds was released in September of 19 of 2004 right I think ds release date the natal ds that was that was November now I'm sorry I was not remember yeah okay but the 3ds though I thought you may have been thinking about the 3ds the 3ds I believe that came out February I don't know I was it was yeah February uh 26th 2011 yeah that was for Japan and then North America was March 27th yes so I mean there's definitely so that's actually it makes more sense he has a more recent um you know handheld system um I will say that I think the switch 2 is getting revealed in March and so if it's getting revealed in March just me looking at how they handled the switch reveal to release which was a four and a half month window to me so that's kind of why I threw out the idea of August to September like I don't see them waiting six months um wait just so just something I want to just ask you guys real quick because I'm a really big Pokemon man so there's going to be a Pokemon presents in February right do you think that I mean Game Freaks games are so bad that even if it's a switch to Pokemon game they just show it without the switch to being announced and you know what I'm like do they show any first of all do you think they have Pokemon games that'll be switch to like year one so here's the interesting about Pokemon show them or what how do they go about that check this out right so I you're probably the ones that explain it but like oh shit that's right that's exactly how it works when we look at how um Pokemon company all Game Freak right shows their mainline Pokemon game in the beginning of the year it's always like a very cryptic trailer mostly like right yeah just not actual gameplay just like barely exactly right so like even if they have a hyped up super like souped up switch to version we wouldn't see that until later to the year anyway so yeah no you're right you're right dude I remember when they were showing the scarlet violet one everyone thought it was like a new detective Pikachu like yeah because it was like there was like looking through it or it was like security guards was like what's going on you know yeah you're right you're right Andres you got me right now honestly I feel that like a lot of people think that like oh we're not gonna hear or see or anything of like then switch to a switch successor at this direct that's happening supposedly in February but I feel like at the end of that direct is just gonna like oh we have one more thing to show you it's just like you know just darkness and maybe just like some silhouettes of the successor and then it like kind of cuts off quickly is like join us like next month or you could like experience the future next month and then they set up a march full reveal from the direct so that's why I think they're gonna do and then they'll have them talking about it for a whole last month leading into the actual reveal of itself and then they reveal it then release it a couple of months down the line and then money this is my dream scenario for February direct right like they open up the direct with Twilight Princess Wind Waker HD and then I've been hurt before yeah yeah well we like we know we got an amiibo restock for the wolf link amiibo right yeah so like I don't know I believe it's coming I believe that it's a weird amiibo for years I believe they've been sitting on that shift for years and they're just like okay now yeah but so let's say we open up with that it's a hypothetical right and then so you know the direct just kind of gives us a few updates on the smaller things because we all kind of see the writing on the wall right but the close out the direct with a Metroid Prime 2 announcement and they're like oh we got one more thing they give us that really like give us like a really cool but cryptic Metroid Prime 4 trailer and they're like tune in next month for more details and that it's somewhere within that it's for they say like for switch to or what have you something like that like that's how they end I don't think they're gonna do that personally I think switch choose not just not going to be mentioned but I do feel like we're gonna watch that direct and be like yep switch choose getting announced soon they can do a CGI trailer and make it look really really good and be like yeah tune in next month for more information you're like oh okay that's when switch choose gonna be shown they could do that without even saying switch to yeah exactly that would that would be interesting come forward but they've never revealed a I don't think a next generation console by Nintendo in a direct it's always been like a singular trailer new yeah so I don't think they will do that in a direct with a bunch of games for switch beforehand I think they will give it its own trailer just like the switch and they'll say they'll have an announcement say tune in tomorrow to see what's next for Nintendo or something like that or like or they'll give you a small hint here and there about with Metroid Prime 4 like you said yeah um I don't know if we're just like sort of blending into the next topic already but I kind of like this has been on my mind lately um do we all like think for sure we're getting a general Nintendo Direct in February I think we're getting I think we have to get something but I am not sure it's a full direct no I think it's going to be third party focused partner showcase is a possibility I think it's going to be a little direct possibility you know I also think it's going to be a full direct because I feel they have to establish more information about uh leading into launch of principle show time release day for thousand year door remake uh like more more information like the stuff we already kind of know like all the Marvel things they want to release throughout the year what not so I think it's going to be a general direct because they I want to I like the principle showcase is supposed to come out like when like quarter one into quarter two or do we have a release day on that already we're about March yeah like like March is right yeah March 20th is 20 the 22nd yeah okay see we have a we have a date for that so I feel like they're they have to do some sort of like final push promotion through our direct itself we already got that kind of information they're like hey ninja peach and cowboy peach is coming into the game and they say we still have more costumes so what better way to talk about those costumes during something like that there's also like those between three DLC which we haven't really seen much of it yeah we have a little trailer but yeah yeah we have a date like it feels like that that would be like a perfect time to maybe show that off too it's coming up this February right I will note the president of nintendo did say that you know they plan to support the switch through um at least March you know at least March of 2025 through the next fiscal year obviously it could go beyond that but the fact that he said that publicly you know one of the investor's meetings tells me that I mean why wouldn't this be a general direct if they're still planning to support this thing for a whole other year so if it was just a partner showcase that would send that would not send a good message yeah so like if you want to build consumer confidence through that March of 2025 that you've already mentioned you would have I'm not saying there's going to be a bunch of brand brand new games could just be more ports and remasters and stuff that could just be the plan oh yeah absolutely yeah when Waker Twilight Princess HD it's the ultimate band aid and that's fine I'm just saying like please there was going to still be a general brand aid for a switch this would be the one I don't if it's not this then that we're just not going to get them anymore which is okay because I mean I will I will note and and I've said this before if they went with a partner showcase I mean I feel like switch choose getting revealed in March then like they're just they're not going to just not show any of their own stuff for six months well we just had a lot of people's cards like oh my god I need to see all the cards in a 45 minute wild say to play just now 45 minutes say to play I mean that had some third part exclusives for Sony and some first what was there any first part of stuff in there I mean like PlayStation Studios like Stellar Blade and then they were talking about uh Tamo's out Ronan one uh now Rise of the Ronan there wasn't okay Rise of the Ronan technically counts because it's like you know under the band ending two and there was one more and it's like it's the PlayStation Studios banner but the way that PlayStation works yes they say they're working on another game after Death Stranding too I didn't watch this game play they got the they broke PlayStation is like your hours so they said that after Death Stranding too is out Kojima's gonna work on a brand new action espionage games uh basically new Metal Gear that's not Metal Gear yeah it's Metal Gear it's gonna be Metal Gear but that's not Metal Gear for PlayStation and I'm like yo Kojima's coveted man like good and by the way all of this going on they're also making OD for Xbox right now like that studio getting massive they must have such I mean you got Sony and and Xbox money coming and they must have huge teams right now as well yeah yeah so I'm just saying but for Nintendo Direct I I still personally kind of expect a general full Nintendo Direct because like there's still lots of stuff to show even if it's not extremely first-party focused you're sticking to have a 45-minute Nintendo Direct at least got a year's worth ahead man they gotta they gotta watch out some stuff I want them to do a full general direct just so we can continue to argue about Switch 2's existence until March I want I want the battle to go on until our very last moment I'll say this if there's a full general direct but they actually drop big brand new games not just Metroid Prime 4 let's say there's a 3D Zelda in it and there's something like that would just take people maximum we people would literally start going Switch 2 might not be coming this year holy shit I mean they could do link between worlds right yeah it could be remastered man just put an awkward time 3D image there's mess on 3D on the switch so here's what we'll do we're going to transition into the Nintendo Direct bingo prediction sort of more of a fun conversation to have guys obviously there is no actual direct announce this is just the hope and the tradition of there being directs every February out in switch is generally outside of 2020 when obviously there was a pandemic going on so understandable why they that was a non-traditional year in general just a bunch of minis but could be a mini could be a partner showcase doesn't matter what I do want to mention is for those who aren't aware uh you guys can participate in the bingo as well now we're not technically competing against each other now if any bets happen on the show between us I don't seem to go down it happens and I know for sure when I put together my bingo card last night my goal was to beat Andres even though there's nothing on the line I just want to beat him uh but that being said that being said and I didn't even look at yours I made sure not to look at mine so I yeah so for those that know I live streamed on Monday and I had I did it I worked with my with my viewers to help so it's not just me my mine is still buying on it last night it's almost like I did the same thing hey but I used polls I didn't use polls tell me an hour to put together mines man I'm the chat combined with what I don't know maybe my ideas are realistic no there's one particular one on there I think I'm gonna love and you can thank joey cj for it it's a beautiful it's a beautiful one that means as well our mods can go ahead and drop a link to where you guys can get the rules and you can get the board to fill out yourself and actually if a direct does happen uh you can actually submit your bingo cards to direct at nintendo prime dot net only during the show if you're here in the show later and you decide to submit don't matter you better hope there's no direct happening before the next podcast because you can only submit during the podcast I am checking time stamps on the submissions and deleting any emails that happened before or after the the show literally you have to be here to be part of it um you could send your bingo card in and the five that get the most bingos are going to win a prize the prize is just a 20 dollar e-shop gift card not the greatest thing in the world however you can give yourself a free space but if you don't have a free space and you put in a game and we're talking the middle square you put a game there and one of your bingo's lands there and you're one of the top five your prize doubles so just throwing that out there uh you can read the rest of the rules if you want like what happens if we have like seven people tied for the top five you gotta go ahead and read the rest of the rules and all that we have that all already detailed out in our community section all that stuff that means there's a tie who's ever the most bricked up wins that that is not a rule uh that's that's not a rule so far uh bingo card time who wants to go first I have four of the six on the show can I can I just do a little tangent yeah here we go I was gonna let Eric talk and I was gonna do his first because like he always talks too much so if you would just get him out of the way right do you have to do a tangent can you a little cosine yes must have a cosine sorry about it just a little thing um you're just it's just you know like why do we need prizes I don't I always hated it I always hated it whenever I came back you know it's fine no I'm not saying there's no prizes for us on the panel I'm giving prizes to the people so let me clarify I have no problem with you having prizes for for this contest I think that's a fantastic you actually helped me come up with the idea for it I literally suggested it to you I don't understand what what are your clones sir my it's just the first like we were we're competing with each other right there's no prizes for us and it's just it's just a personal thing like I remember I would come back from winning you mean you want a prize on this you want a prize you want a prize no no you say you want a prize I will tell my stuff mom they'd be like what did you win I won glory like isn't that good enough breaking rates that's more than a prize but anyway that's just give me a pat on the back buddy I was like what did you win the fact that I won like I can throw it into people's faces anytime I want to exactly it's the part of winning one getting bricked up next time I see you Andres we'll give you a handshake I don't need that I just hi fine okay is Eric going first yeah I'm gonna get his uh grabbed here so I can show it to you guys uh this is the one this is about him and we want to grab is it not gonna let me grab it that way oh we know this I will I got it got it well but boom all right almost you do it so Eric yeah words you have lots of words which is fine yeah people with images some words that's okay wait I supposed to do this well yes I actually had a long conversation with you in the text message and you were like yeah and I asked if I was supposed to do this and you said no oh well so well Eric I want to go over here we can go card here yeah I mean we have prime for I mean I think we've already taught prime for a lot yeah it'd be freaking great to see congress bed Friday announced for an so yes I wanted I wanted that oh no we have a we have a conversation to be had when I see when you see mine oh yeah I thought it'd be just funny if all of a sudden it was just an indie world instead of an actual like Nintendo direct because then the bingo cards out the window so um a new captain toad game um or anything new captain toad I guess nice um like that zelda remaster remake whatever you want to call it um a new mario game new yoshi game brand new ip whatever the you're going with a big direct I love it right this is great game you're getting added to be he only has to get five in a row right like you know it's not about everything being right but just getting five in a row well sure but if we're competing and there's well you have one bingo then you need to get another bingo yeah we'll see so something star fox uh new dk game um two plus israel's in the in the uh direct um because I'm not as much in depth with you guys I chose to do a free space so increase your odds yeah yeah uh new showtime content uh paper mario update uh smash 64 and so uh new game luigi's mansion to release date okay uh new banjo kazooie game holy oh oh oh microsoft given that's a nintendo first that would be insane please ring fit to um game keep to the ns oh jeez that's never gonna happen that's what's never gonna happen the bingo of dreams this is this dream bingo maybe the dreams alive yeah see what happens uh luigi's mansion four oh that could go with the luigi's mansion to release date um overcooked three just just because okay um revive the mario luigi series and then obviously switch this would be the great i do like the uh i do like the overcooked three actually this is like the greatest direct i've ever seen in my life i i got a prediction um at least two spots on here are going to be correct at least two at least two you got three so what's the other one yeah right well so the free one paper mario because they're not gonna not show paper mario um and i actually think we're already get some sort of zelda remake remaster in the direct yeah i mean you'll probably get the new showtime content oh is that there yeah that one's there six yeah oh new showtime i was looking for a peach all right yeah so i mean i just i said three but there's four boxes there then you know that that middle row actually had a chance to pot would be something well we'll see we'll see middle row or middle column middle middle row yeah yeah i was yeah yesterday i'm like one's a column one's a row and i don't know what column i don't know if there's a new jockey kong you win yeah yeah that's all that's really all you're banking on yeah three are givens almost like they are givens yeah yeah you shouldn't be allowed to like make the order of your board you should just like put 25 things and then it randomizes it that's cheap to put the most realistic ones in a row i don't have a randomizer jake and randomizer i hardly know her that was not a rule so yeah all right that was not a rule it should have been wasn't game gear on the on the we virtual console back in the day i think it was was it i have no idea wait there was one are you just thinking about like maybe just the sega ages collection which is also on switch it's not necessarily no no we're talking about we shop channel kind of sworn us on sega ages games were on the we were on the we shop that i have no idea there was definitely more than gendo stuff they did not have game gear they had nes master system commodore uh pc engine msx tobor graphics sega genesis and neogio okay a lot that's we you right that's we oh that's we oh okay yeah i think i think game gear yeah it's kind of like they have a few good games on that i don't know what they would put on it because there's so many games that are just like anything else on genesis or isn't the sonic game on that good you know i forget what's called it is good okay oh i don't know like if game gear is put on there eric what what games would they what they have name something yeah put them on the spot right right i mean echo the dolphin was fun um i had the japanese version so i never actually understood how to play it i mean i played the english version on nso and i still didn't understand how to play it yeah yeah um poor echo the dolphin it's fun no i enjoyed figuring it out they remember they made the pocket size game gear minis what was what was on those you know i'm talking about no idea i don't know yeah they were like collectible like the little teeny game gear minis so the best game uh game gear games uh they have listed on the site here gunstar heroes uh baku baku animal wonder boy three son the hedgehog two they're like ports with genesis uh shinobi two bubble wobble oh its own version of future rage too they had they had power strike two principersia shining force um those are like the best games you know like really fun power rangers game wait look how look how little this is the game gear micro if it's gonna remember everyone thought it was a joke that is tiny now in 2020 i released my sega that is insane um yeah i you know mostly i guess right okay yeah i mean that and i i had the game year yes he did that's how i got to play it i never owned it but i played it vicariously for eric some sports game i played a lot of monkey and monkey business back in the day i played a little out of the one baseball game um yeah they're the power the power ranger game on that was really fun too um but yeah no it'd be interesting to see kind of i mean yeah it probably shares a lot of games with the genesis but the heck with it oh did you say uh did you say sonic chaos too uh no how was the game gear like the one that it was like made for game gear um yeah i'm sure that i'm sure that's one of them yeah i have to find a big list i don't know they had two last bible spin-offs which was from um the shimigami tense slash persona series that were gave your exclusives that's kind of cool okay there you go all right i'm gonna throw up this next one because i don't know who's this who's the fiend super metal david hmk because i of course i didn't submit it to you i just have no no you can share you can share your own if you want when it's your when it's your turn i'm just trying to get these ones out of the way so i don't know who's they are so i mine is the one with the monkey's paw in the middle okay well i'm just gonna grab this and you guys can can make a claim unless you mind his auto-metroid on it unless unless i grab this and you don't like it let's do it zero mission hd that you grab it i'll like it over your bingo card explain these things all right so first of all we got switch to just in case you know if he just shows up or anything banjo toey on nso nintendo where is it like come on that's all i'm like yo bonkers bad friday not until i get my banjo toey man i won't i'll give you that i just threw star fox in there because i really want star fox even though i know it's dead so star fox uh princess beauty show time a new yoshi game no professional compared to the last one what's up with that yoshi picture oh my gosh it's it's great right i love yoshi that's the league design for the new yoshi next gen yoshi right like exactly in the pores in yoshi's skin it's actually a crossover yoshi across five nights at freddy's don't know uh is that the zelda movie in the corner yeah all right we're gonna get there yeah dark pit uh for kitacris uprising for the switch like nintendo like that's free money because i put in zelda awkward in time because i would love to see awkward in time like remastered remade again yes uh high five rush high five rush for the switch please it was an amazing game stellar experience if this game is going multi platform i feel like it'll do really really well on nintendo switch we got the big ass four for metroid prime four please god i'm i'm still waiting zelda chronicles x for the switch we're only missing one zelda game if it comes to switch through that's cool um i put in pokemon gold there because they're like you know let's go pikachu but gold or like a gold remake for switch or something like that you know let's go evie let's go sure a lot let's go but anything else i would take at like any new gold i will i will i will love that um i'm tired of seeing rayman dead so i kind of need him to come back so that rayman the free space is monkeys is a monkey's paw because i feel like a lot of these have a good chance of showing up but there's going to be a catch to it like every one of these has a catch to it so that's on like the monkey's paw just curls up um isabel's there for like any type of new animal crossing thing like everyone's been wanting new updates to uh new horizons that we're not going to get so maybe just the next animal crossing game i feel like this is enough time right um we go festival too baby oh man they're a happy home designer too um what they want twilight prince hd one worker hd i know nintendo has it i know they're sitting on it they're just they just have to release i know i want to release a video on that i think they have them yep man metroid prime two echoes remastered uh i will love for them to be bundled like two and three but i feel like they're gonna space them out uh pay them our thousand year dora information f zero and then this is a good one um fire emblem genealogy of the holy war i feel like we probably might get a fire emblem guiding uh version of that game for genealogy of the holy war and i feel like it'll be like really good uh new donkey kong game i just had to put down here on country's a series uh if they bring bring up the legends of the movie at all they're like oh tune in next week or like uh tune in on this day on twitter to see who's the actors you know who's going to be the actors towards the legends of the blah blah blah uh i just threw in travis there for a new normal heroes please travis for smash now and i that ship has sailed uh lethal company for switch i adore this game and i feel like i think it's time for it to go multi-plat i like i hope uh the guy we're running and making this game is gonna secure some sort of funding or anything like that because i would love to see this game go multi-platform and the switch would be when i was a lethal company uh that's a ll fit where i'm our cap so anything related maybe even tlc or update free some so that there and glover either yeah either glover on nso or just glover remastered whatever just give me glover two comments right off the top no no love yeah i love the love f0 what is zero ever due to you song called for wow and to glover i hardly know where all right love the glove you got points for the puns love the glove i'll just say i i think 80 to 90 percent of this is 100 happening i'm not i don't know if it's happening i don't think it's happening well okay i'm 80 to 90 like i mean there's there's there's 25 boxes right so you know 80 would be four of the five rows but anyway like i think most of this is happening i don't think it's all happening in the next direct but like you know i think almost all these things almost all these things are in the works what about what about tetris 99 all bricked up version wow wow catcher 69 all zelda 99 let's go we're zelda 25 that's doable like four sword style yep four nine and four sword style like dungeon crawling whoever reaches the farthest part of the dungeon the quickest and whoever stays alive didn't didn't they say in an interview that they wouldn't do that like a dungeon maker they wouldn't do dungeon maker yeah oh well i thought that's what you said what was it like like like remember uh mario 25 where they were all competing in a mario game at the same time and if they get knocked out they already made dungeons just adapt for several got it okay all right yep i missed it my bad that'll be fun please especially if you could beat each other up yeah now i think it'll be all like their own specific dungeon you can't really interact with us just see they're like maybe send monsters to the others like oh you go fast enough you're like you fill up a bar and then you just throw style foes into the room of someone next to you okay okay makes sense makes sense all right i think then this should be super mental daves yeah so yeah this is more like like a dream a dream kind of thing here and um i did not get myself for a free space in the middle but that's all right so yeah like double your pride i'm a i'm a big i'm a big fan of gamecube remasters because that that console uh scales up really well on dolphin so like i think they're sitting on a gold mine with gamecube uh games that they could remaster obviously you uh there's like some stuff with the gamecube coming to nso the future who knows but like there's lots of chances for remasters in the meantime uh so that's why you're seeing a lot here but anyway yeah i metroid prime two obviously um i would really like to see a donkey country returns remaster from the week because that um i think they could do that game justice with just rather rather uh controls you know um astral chain two i think could happen um since the first game was was a success and then nintendo has that ip now yeah yeah uh it's a matter of time uh curbie obviously they they would be very very often these days so that that's a easy easy thing they could announce for next year or something like that uh metro prime four yeah metro prime four obviously we've got to i don't know about that yeah yeah yeah exactly uh when waker hd obviously uh and then um wave race i would love to see a wave race remaster from gamecube bluestorms great game uh i put calisthenia in there that's not i couldn't i couldn't find just a regular logo it's not symphony of the night i would like to have like that's out of court yeah symphony of the night oh yeah i would like to just have like a new calisthenia announced so that's kind of like what that represents uh because that would be another perfect a game like a metro adred for example reviving calisthenia for the switch would be great um i also i mentioned link between worlds before like a remaster of that from 3ds probably princess obviously we know that that's all these games are in their back pocket i will love a star fox adventures remaster i love that game i don't care what anybody says yeah i love it too it's great um another game that that could they could do very little work to and just put it in hd and they look amazing super mario galaxy two where is that game i will love to see that game also look amazing in hd yeah like um i don't understand why they're ignoring it honestly because i think it's it's better than galaxy one yeah i actually think it's better than galaxy one people disagree with me on that but hey like i think it's fantastic it has yoshi in it too uh and you know brand new donkey kong game i think that's a very good chance of happening uh kid icris uprising hd punch out from the we come on man that game is fantastic i will love to play that game in hd uh tinnity avalanche from the game cube i would love to see a remaster of that game obviously chrono trigger nobody talked about chrono trigger there was some talk about a like a revamped remaster of that game like a year ago waiting for it so yeah i would love to see that happen like like a secret emana type of thing how they did in the these other games they're doing with square uh something like that would be great and then star fox assault obviously love that game the game cube yes and uh mad world you guys ever played mad world yes hell yeah that's a wild one if they're on that game great that's a mad one but that's a an amazing game so like people just didn't play it that much but it's like it's such a good game man man i remember back in the day it was one of those unfortunate tiles that was like everyone's talking about it up until release and then when it released no one gave a fuck and i'm like bro where where are you guys man y'all what happened this game forever buy it so immediately in the discount bin that's yeah yeah i think i think if it was uh i understood the idea a bit because but i think if it was in color actually it would have would have done a little bit better but since they put it in black and white and just the blood was red man that might style the style was fan i loved it but i think it may have turned off it was very niche extremely niche because of that but uh well i saw good so minus one minus color this past weekend and it's like one of the best moves that i've seen in my life so i saw that too actually it's great but yeah anyway i would love to see that come back in some way it has the voice of bender in it the guy who does the voice of bender is one of the announcers in the game um but yeah it's a it's a great game episode gx obviously another fantastic game the upscale is amazing in 4k on dolphin without even i think we're seeing that game this year i hope so yeah such an easy part they could do for that it's like a no brainer and that's that's like revive it please metro prime three uh that could come with metro prime two when they announce it you never know uh i would love to see a rare replay collection on the switch because it's on the xbox only it's live on pc um so i'd love to see that i'm very unlikely obviously but you never know softlock zero um ports with uh standard controls in in place i think would be a much better game than the wii game uh i don't i think i don't think it's a bad game but i think the uh me and meadow factors kind of screwed that game up yeah eternal darkness please for the love of god i would love to see that game uh in hd remastered is this the studio just like gone yeah but nintendo owns the game they own the rights remaster it with some another company and last but not least i will love to see is samus uh returns hd port from the 3ds on switch i like how you you made sure that that metroid were the four corners of your the four corners of the galaxy buddy it's it's the it's the whole foundation i love it yeah but yeah that's it's my pie in the sky to tell him direct but hey you know some of that stuff probably will happen yeah i mean all these these are all like fantastic thing i mean the only thing that's like like looking at all i feel like all these things at some point gotta happen the only two that i'm like will they ever happen our eternal darkness zero right everything else kind of feels yeah someday we're gonna see it repurposed in some way yeah like i said you never know but i mean the eternal darkness is such a great it's a great game i mean it deserves to be i agree with that what was that team that was supposed to be like a spiritual successor i think they they had a project they were working on yeah so it was a it was a poorly funded uh kickstarter or like not kickstart but it was a crowdfunding thing they tried to crowdfunding called shadows of the eternals that's right it didn't it didn't make it and they were trying to make it for the wii and it looked and the the concert trail looked really good and i and one of my best friends adores eternal darkness and he actually gave like a hundred bucks to like shadows of eternal and then they were funding them because it didn't meet like it didn't meet the quota and i'm like man that sucks it's like he was just like oh man i'm booting up eternal dark because he still has this game but he boots that up like almost every day and like i feel really bad because the game is good and i would love to see a follow up but i bet if that happened today it would be better because you have a lot more streamers now and content creators who would definitely like push it and people that actually give a shit about the switch rather than the wii you can't have denis dyak being the front man for it he was a big thing to me lawsuits oh yeah that guy so he was a front man on the channels of the eternal yeah he was the face of the shadow of the eternal thing so which probably also didn't help but uh yeah they're gonna have to like do something i'm not saying you can't work on it i'm just saying you can't even be close to the marketing oh yeah absolutely but you know he's gonna want to be well yeah i mean i appreciate his love for the ip but but but but you gotta point out though nintendo does still own that that ip actually is sitting there yeah and they keep renewing the trademark so hey you know might as well just i mean we got i forgot her name but we got her and smash ultima as a spirit oh the main character or alex alex yeah alex alex yeah the girl i i kind of think it's an interesting talking point though because um you know especially with metro prime 4 hopefully being shown soon right like that's a game that's gonna be geared towards a slightly older more mature audience than usual for nintendo games right and then we also banetta beta's rated m rated m right or the yes oh yes very much yeah and they're really familiar for a game yeah i mean but i guess my point is is that like you know between banetta and hopefully a resurgence of like a more mature i mean my metric is a mature orient it's not mature rated but you know what i mean it's it's a more mature audience uh you know it doesn't jump neither does her enemies right yeah like it would be cool if nintendo also was like you know what we got these two series that are going well what if we went back to eternal darkness like i would love to actually see nintendo like do this because suddenly i'm kind of thinking about in relation to metroid like because the conversation always is like why is metroid not sell i think there's a lot of reasons why but you know in having conversations with a few different content creators like something i realized i kind of well something i think i've realized is that there's just a lot of nintendo fans don't care about metroid because it's not really something nintendo like a lot of it's metroid feels almost non-nintendo in a way depending on how you look at nintendo i don't know yeah exactly yeah well i i see where they're coming from when people say that like i understand the sentiment 100% like metroid and the entirety of that like series constant stands out as a sore thumb among all the kind of furniture that vibrant exactly and then and then whenever you see marketing that is like always lighthearted that has like link mario isabel pikachu and stuff and then when samus is there she just feels so out of place i'm like it was like there was a um there was a singer in japan that they were celebrating the like the removable face plates of the new 3ds that came out only in japan and then it was showing off all these characters uh nintendo characters they get a makeover right and as samus was there in her power suit and everything and then she got a makeover and then she felt so out of place compared to everyone else and i'm like see that's like the biggest example to like that testimony just like yeah so i mean you know if nintendo actually like started investing a bit more into just being like they're i think nintendo is more of a variety uh right they're not really kiddy they're a variety they appeal to a large ranging audience and so you know it would be nice to see them branch out a little bit more so they do have kind of a better catalog of more of more torrented games i mean we got to bring back a little darkness maybe have a new ip that's also kind of in that direction i agree that would be sick switch to bring it because i i feel like the my only my only thing with eternal darkness is if you bring it back you have to it's a lot to do because you have to change a lot because we don't play games on crt tvs anymore like having the channel like you know what i mean you have to like do stuff like maybe where like it update the stuff that messes with your tv yeah you have to do that joy con drift these are the way that we're terrifying that's terrifying you're really good at hundred that would be perfect like you're going in the like the opposite direction is you're like and people think it's that that would be awesome but you have to do that in so many little areas like even the way we save games isn't the same so there's power going out like that is in that game which makes it like kind of require a lot more effort still a really crazy no it would be amazing it would be even cooler like to like it's a new experience then to do something like that like not a completely new game but it makes it feel really fresh maybe there's ten counts have your phone number on record do the ten no counts have your phone on record no i don't think so i don't think so they have an email email email it would be i mean i i something depending on what what happens i sometimes get email notifications but it would be interesting if like they could like text you or something yo imagine if um it's a new eternal darkness or the eternal darkness game for a switch and then during the gameplay like the switch messes you by going into the home menu and selecting one of your games and like accidentally pulling it up but it's not really that and just goes back to eternal darkness it's like oh two's of the kingdom and it pulls it up like no i'm playing like or or they they delete your save file pretending yeah oh i love it from a different game now the dead pixel thing fucks on me though that that that's terrifying to me just like especially like that's crazy to do with the ir camera i'm sure but it would be interesting they they do it it's just one pixel right so you might not even notice but after maybe 30 minutes it becomes two like yeah it gets bigger and bigger right and like you start to really question what's going i i love it i love it this is this is what they got to do they can't do like the like like i've had the frame rate guest messed up though because they just they already released games like at least pokemon that was good that was good that i'm like can't go to that well not on this well i guess we already have it they will they will decrease the resolution to 240p yeah yeah it can't do that either they turn on hdr by accident i was the the um yeah they make a game one that's good okay all their games all look good so aside i mean maybe it makes sense to not do a remake then but like well i mean if you remake you are reimagining things but so maybe that or just a just a new game in the series the series kind of makes ideas yeah yeah it's a wild concept game that uh but have you guys all played to turn on darkness yourself i have i have not beat the game yeah so the way to beat the game for real is that you got to beat it i think three times right yeah i think because because you it's these realities that are all connecting from different points of the universe to create one reality that fixes everything in the entire universe so like you got to play through like three times so it's very like big at grandiose concept game so yeah i can imagine remastering it would be a challenge because of all those things you mentioned um or they can just leave it as is and just put it in hd and you know in big hey you know just deal with it this is a game from 2001 or 2002 so i play it still i mean it's a great game everyone should play it at least one time in the life mm-hmm so we'll see but it is nice that they mentioned it in stash brothers as a why is it a ghost or spirit yeah spirit spirit all right i just want to do yours next sure i guess i'll uh present it yeah i hope there's not a new f0 on there well so i was i try to be really cautious about it like there are things that are not here that i do think are coming but i just don't think they can be in this next direct and obviously i can totally be wrong so you guys are gonna hate my card so much i love it all right it's i got it all right so just disclaimer your outlook is nice yeah well well at least it's in widescreen and at least i don't have to like double check with people like what did you mean by this picture um but well i mean i still i like that i i made this during the live stream so you know i was just kind of typing in things and that still took me two hours um anyway so yeah metric prime four can you guys see my mouse no you can't see my mouse oh you can see it now right yep yep okay cool all right because i was pointing i was i was using my mouse on the streamlabs tab as opposed to all right i'm good yeah so metric prime four um i think you know something interesting that we didn't mention earlier we were talking about it um i bring this up whenever i kind of talk about metric prime four as of late but i feel like metric prime four isn't kind of like a tears of the kingdom uh situation right now so after tears of the kingdom came out we were told by enuma that back in march of 2022 when the game was delayed the game was actually basically complete his words basically complete and so we waited until may of 2023 to actually get the game and so we now have this info suggesting that prime four has been in the play testing stage since early last year and so i kind of feel like we're in a similar sort of situation where metric prime four is just being polished up nintendo's waiting for the right time to show it and even though we knew about tears of the kingdom right we had seen some footage a lot of fans those last few months before release were really getting antsy because nintendo was being extremely quiet like like right before we needed to and i think it's different but i think there are similarities here i think prime four it the lack of info isn't because it's not close it's just nintendo waiting to strike at the right perfect time so anyways i think we're we're definitely on metric prime four watch so it might be in the direct so here it is um i guess going left to right i i put here a non-game announcement right and so that's kind of meant to be like this i'm trying to be strategic here i'm trying to win um so like uh non-game announcements could be like maybe an update on the museum um maybe more details on the concert or the theme park anything like that that's not necessarily about a game that's what this spot is for chris pratt he's so cool that could he's also going to play as link the kids like that that guy right we'll pick him yeah i already did a good job yeah i didn't like i actually liked him as mario it was actually not good yeah it gives me a little bit of faith for their for their choices for what happens to zelda but we'll see on that one um on that note is zelda i think there's a pretty good chance we get winmaker and twilight princess and this is before i saw the uh wolf link amiibo so now i'm like oh this makes even more sense though yeah i do think they're gonna come together though so we just get one this is wrong they have to it has to be a collection pack yeah that goes for anything that has multiple things on one square oh um guy you added extra like paper mario and luigi's mansion if you don't get both dates you can't track that off true yeah but i i feel i think that one's i that's that's a gimme so i'm okay i don't want to give mario dates a gimme all right well you know well let me get to that spot all right i'm still on my another game to game we'll get shadow dropped um what a game okay yeah yeah yeah that was like i really don't believe we're ever gonna get a game to minnesot oh yeah i see i see where you're coming from with that yeah um i actually talked about because of the trademark right like i i was looking at like we got like n64 trademarks like we were talking about n64 mini back in 2017 and we did get trademarks but what it materialized into was nso for nso years later and so i don't know i think we could get ganky minnesot but we're talking about three four years from now like so that's and that would that would be a switch two thing at that point which two thing yeah yeah it doesn't make sense to me when they are remastered like not only remaking but just remastering so many games exactly it's easier to do that and make more money there's a lot more money right yeah exactly do that first and then release the the old ones later as a value add well and so which is why i think we're gonna get a random game to game shadow dropped it might be metro prime two but i'll get to that one but you know yeah i could get a double dip here i can see them doing like gamecube nso with like some of like the b-list games like way then everyone would just be disappointed the whole time yeah i mean i wouldn't it's tough i don't know well the thing is if you do only like the b-list you still need to add the a-list eventually i will say um so for example we got um we had 3d all stars right and 3d all stars had mara 64 right technically a remastered version of it but then they still released mara 64 on nso later so it can happen i i just think we got to wait a few years but we'll see um anyway next spot i think a mara sports title i've been thinking like specifically mara baseball but i said sports just to keep my options open a camelot is due um it's been this year will be the next like three-year gap where they conceived they seem to make a mara sports game every three years so what's camelot working on maybe they're bringing back the mara baseball series um i don't know if mario mario cricket let's go or you know i would say i i had this debate in my livestream on monday but if they announced mara and sonic at the olympics i'll i'll give it to myself if that's what happens but we'll see this is another gimme um a dlc update so we just get some sort of new information about dlc for a nintendo game i think you're cheating here it's like hello that's like putting on your card like a video game is announced yeah i don't think it's that much you're almost making me not bricked up might as well say announcement happens okay all right all right well no let me fit in let me explain though two people who come up with this idea are gonna get shit on the most all right so let's let me explain where nintendo will be said tears of the kingdom has had no dlc live here's the kingdom has no has had no dlc announced they've told us no dlc has come up pickman four has had no dlc announced mario wonder has had no dlc announced usually usually most in main nintendo games if they're getting dlc they're either announced right beforehand or right afterwards and all these games have passed that window and so i think because we are going to switch to there's a strong chance we don't get a dlc update for any major nintendo game so i actually kind of feel i actually am nervous about putting dlc update no dlc update is getting swapped out for tommy bear knows 100 percent what you should you should have you should have been live sure on monday you would have been able to sway my decision here too late anyway five five rush baby i think there's a chance this is gonna happen i mean i'm not the one who suggested it already right i saw yeah yeah i mean i i saw that was rated for switch but then i saw someone say that was not true i haven't looked into this um yeah it was rated for all i wasn't rated for all the consoles that's why that's that's the headline i saw but i didn't do a lot of heavy research on it so um i assume it is i've only seen one person say it's not i also it's the internet right people see all sorts of things um i haven't seen the headline but i wasn't doing it so yeah yeah so anyway i think that's a that's a good one that could happen honestly the donkey kong one i didn't want to put it but my chat was like put the believe in the monk and i was like all right so donkey kong announcement here we go well even the monk yeah i didn't want to put this one in there i almost wanted to put mini instead but it's not it's not a tumor live stream think uh think that thought i should put not a mini so i don't i guess here we got a not a mini option uh we'll see on that one i do feel good about metro prime two i think all of us have put metro prime two right so um yep yeah there we go Kirby seems to happen almost every year i a part of me actually speculates that we might have a break year because i think they're just gonna make another forgotten land like the sequel to it and it's gonna be amazing uh but that wouldn't come out to at least next year but anyway i'm putting Kirby just because it still usually happens they might squeeze in like a new shop title that's part of the game another forgotten land another forgotten act actually actually not a bad idea yeah now you're the one that did a good job there you discovered it uh anyway to the dates which i was being attacked for um yeah i mean i i i think we'll get dates for both but you know the has them putting a lot of trailers on social media so maybe they put the dates there before the direct which would then ruin this bingo spot but we'll see uh also both of you that were rated by the esrb like they're they're both like they're both ready so switch to hint so when i say switch to hint um in my live stream i explained like anything that we're like oh that's a switch to hit like if this ends up being a partner direct which to hint right or if we see something like the colored buns we saw um in the last direct right where there's a whole bunch of games to have them that would call that a switch to it something that we're like huh really feels like this is hinting at switch to so that's that's pretty much what that is it's in my free spot but it's not technically free um so this one is a team asano game so like you know like the triangle strategies the barely default dues apparently they're planning to make announcements this year so maybe they announced another one of those drying quest three oh yeah maybe that that'd be cool nso update i feel like that's you know decent chance we get more nso games so there's that fire emblem probably the remake what genealogy the whole you know the whole war yep yeah i i definitely think we're in the we're in the window right i i've personally predicted early next year but it could happen at any point so another nintendo remaster remake that's not basic so basic would be like pickman one and two um and basic also might be metroprime too so this wouldn't count unless it does look like the original i feel like it's going to be more basic though um i'm talking like you know like thousands your door level or mario vs doggie kong where they're literally adding new content it's visually like redone uh so that's what that's what this would be new peach costumes from princess peach show time i think that's that's kind of one of those gimme's yeah yeah um a free game so like you know something that we can like it's free to play or we can like jump into um to start it off or uh maybe like a tetris any nine things something that you don't need to spend money for on top of what you already done uh paper mar a thousand year door new content so like maybe like a luigi's quest post came oh man i love luigi's quest yeah yeah it just feels like it would fit because it's it's like right there you just when you talk to him he has all his partners and stuff yep yep that would be it would be awesome so you know you see i'm covering my bases here right i'm thinking something zelda right so if i don't get winwick or twilight princess maybe i get a 2d zelda remake or a new 2d zelda so that's what i'm going for with that one amiibo i feel like there's a pretty solid chance we'll get some type of amiibo announced in the direct that usually happens um i'm not talking about your life guy but talking about your life sold like crazy on 3ds and me topia uh i'm brick i remastered hold really well and switch so this feels like over the edge there's a lot of money to be made here so it just makes sense for nintendo to put this on switch eventually um so here we are multiple farming games i think it's going to be at more than one farming game that we'll see in the direct i know it's entire direct yeah yeah that's the entire direct pretty close to the past me in the entire direct yeah and here i have pure 100 percent in other words that guy pure on twitter who always hints um pretty much leaks to every direct the last like year or so i think it's going to happen again um he's not going to leak everything but there are going to be some things that he'll say and he's going to be 100 right and that is my bingo card hmm it's very interesting which of your predictions gets you the most bricked up up metro prime four nice metro yeah wondering some surprise didn't go free game in the free space yeah well uh come on it was right here well i could all get it one of white confusion but uh i suppose yeah i also felt like switch is basically a freak is like you could take anything and interpret how you will right no i know yeah i mean i think this is a pretty realistic one you know trying to get everything right hey i mean i'll say this you have an outside shot at a blackout but probably not i think the left column is definitely wrong i feel terrible at the left you see up here are you kidding me i don't think we're getting two diesel of fire and curb a metro prime four in the same direct yeah i do feel good about my right column though like that that one i think is it's pretty strong well also your second one like a cross kind of cheap but it's fine well donkey congress kind of out there i don't think i think that's a that's a toss up at best man yeah man oh i'll mention one last thing i was talking about this the entire time monday night this diagonal metro prime four high five rush switch to hint free game pure 100 percent that's what i that's what i'm really pulling for to be right that means metro prime four being the direct though i mean like any of the ones that have metro prime four and you're you just pull from that period yeah pretty much look i don't even need the bingo i just need that corner the top left corner needs to hit period that all right yeah all right all right all right i see what's going on that's cool jake do you have anything you want to add i don't even fill one out you just want to talk about all of our if i don't want out i would win because every square would just be gets me bricked up yeah and everyone would come true i would i would have to live stream they would have to live stream or direct or watch it with one of us and we'll have to like record every single one of your reactions to every single announcement and if you don't get like oh god it hurts i'll break up are you really i guess we'll see on the live stream i've break up meter break up meter that's great i'm actually very nervous that my bingo card's gonna be wrong just saying that's all right if people if we're getting mad at your bingo card oh god my audience knows what my bingo card is because they helped me fill it out but the panel is going to be very angry at my bingo card oh boy i also think my bingo card has an outside shot to almost be a blackout save one spot that's just i i put a wild dream in there it is what it is so it might be a little boring but also a little interesting and also a little well yeah you gave yourself a lot of ways to get things right sure as hell did oh boy here we go cheap oh and there's no pictures this is now something metroid all right yeah something curvy this is gonna be angry i already know it's already happening i haven't even said anything yet let's franchise the revival met what what here we go all right all right my goal was to get all these right i worked hard with the chat on this the goal was to try to get everything right some things got specific some things didn't to give us a little reason why why do you put silk dog and i'm arming sim game appears that's cheating something got specific some things gotta be more than like an animal well i don't know one of the rules that i'm holding uh the people who submit their bingo cards for the chance of prizes to is that you can't have anything on your bingo chart that can get you two spots correct with one announcement so if that happens both spots are eliminated so i held myself to that same rule now that was not a rule for you guys that was just a rule for the contest entry so that way you can prevent yourself from like just basically saying a bunch of the same thing in different ways on the chart um so my chart has nothing that can actually be the same there's one thing that could be but i don't think it's gonna happen and unlikely but i took the risk anyways um so that's why i'm like well something metroid right yeah i think something metroid's gonna happen i think it's probably just only gonna actually be a shadow drop of metro prime two i don't think they're even gonna talk about metro prime four but if they do that still counts because i just think something metroid's going to happen i think it's time for that yeah what's up what if a nintendo executive comes up on stage to talk about another random nintendo game it's not metroid but they're wearing a metroid pin does that count as something metroid metroid appeared something metroid he will here's the thing there's not going to be anyone coming up on stage they don't do that anymore so i'm not worried sometimes no all right well here's another example here's another example remember the origami king trailer at the end they had a martyr running around in a samus helmet would that count as something metroid sure that's bullshit so be something metroid it's all gotta be all right all right uh next up an xbox published game it's probably hi-fi rush but i wanted to leave it a little bit or open ended because i don't know that they're gonna announce that right now they could wait i don't even know that it's actually coming to switch it could be switched too so i'm gonna sit back and be like you know what it could be something else i could be rare more rare games coming to nso as an example that those are xbox published games now um it could be another smaller indie title that they publish you know like we've already gotten the uh ory games and stuff like that so i i think there will be something i think it will be hi-fi rush but i wasn't confident enough to do that because i keep telling myself hi-fi rush was actually a more recent release and they might want better hardware for it rare replay especially because it's very it's very much a music you know like in beat with the music frame rate actually matters it matters so that's why i'm like it kind of feels like that could be something they wait for switch to but i do think there'll be something because i don't know i mean here's the weird thing i tell myself this is cheap if i take it there's anything minecraft related that's xbox do so but whatever i'm taking a metroid pin if it pops up so that is what it is um a farming sim game appears i actually don't think there's gonna be a shit ton of farming sims but i think there will be one i think that's just a safe bet the release gonna get one um something curbie i want to go like for a new forgotten land i don't know that that's gonna be the case here they might save that for the next system um it could be there's just so many different possibilities for curbie it could be bringing back i want a new rule i want a new rule well nate doesn't get to vote on it but the rest of us do if two people have the same thing on their bingo card the one that is more specific if that is correct they are the ones that get the bingo chip what are you talking about everyone's own bingo if metroid prime 2 gets released whoever has metroid prime 2 gets it whoever has something metroid doesn't get it yeah says the person who didn't fill out a bingo card even though you don't get to vote anyways all those all those opposed nobody okay um so this one a host will wear a suit jacket i just wanted to guarantee i get one right and that was a joicy jay suggested so it just made the list host will wear a suit jacket and i walk with people one at a time they wear just a t-shirt without a suit jacket that chat agrees it's fair i think it's fair hey um chat i'm the one paying for the prizes so it's irrelevant um switch to that's the pipe dream that's the pipe dream literally announced switch to not a hint switch to is announced period um so that one i didn't i didn't want to make that general that is literally an announcement yeah i didn't do a bingo card so i'll be the moderator i will i probably would count it uh if it was an announcement of a switch to announcement as well like if they're gonna say hey tune in you're in the race you're by the one that will count things and not count things yeah unfortunately you don't you know what jake i will gladly let you be the moderator you can go through the hundreds of submissions and figure out everyone's bingos if you want from that'd be great no i'm doing it for the panel well there's nothing on the line for the panel so it doesn't really matter there is glory so it's fun then and i'll take a load off your play a little bit no because you're already gonna disqualify all of mine so no i'm not no i would actually be fair i wouldn't actually do that uh nintendo selects or a related lineup so a discount lineup announced by nintendo none of you guys had that on there so i think yeah i intentionally i don't think this is a for sure thing of course but they've discontinued a lot of physical games and i think that's because they're gonna bring them back yeah no i agree that they're coming i don't want to announce it now but i don't know i yeah so the reason i didn't put it in mine is just because i don't think the intel is going to announce any sort of price drop or discounts during the direct i can't think of a time that they've announced past with prior directs so i went through prior directs to find that they have announced new games for nintendo selects and stuff in the past i was like you know what i don't know if they're gonna call it nintendo selects that's why i said or related because they've used other terminology in the past so if they don't return to that then they might use well i forgot they forgot what the other popular one they used to use i want to say if they if they remind you of the discount voucher thing that doesn't count no no no no unless they make a line of discounting games not a voucher no um new nso games just appear there's not even a guarantee there will be nso games are not in every direct no but hey this also gives me the whole thing hey if gamecube happens there's probably new nso games in there and i was gonna say gamecube's coming of course they could and then that would piss me off it wouldn't count but here's what it is a donkey kong this is where i got specific a side scrolling donkey kong now originally i put this on here i wanted to leave it open to put a 3d donkey kong game on as well and then i decided no because i'm actually trying to win i think the new donkey kong game that's that's been rumored all this time is going to be a side scrolling one and this will be a brand new game announcement um one of the only brand new game announcements that they have that is actually published by nintendo uh because i don't think they feel like a side scrolling donkey kong game needs to wait for the next system um it's like meant for a dread style or jungle beat style where there's a lot of moments where it kind of changes perspective into 3d yeah i don't think it'll be that way right it could be i don't know i don't have any i see is that what i'd like to make with you on your square because i just want to go in a different direction than country did with the side scrolling but i don't know what that's gonna mean yeah it's like scroll to the left instead of the right scroll to the i would throw people for a loop let's do it hey what uh neat you were looking for players they got to hire you under player strikes yeah player strikes um that's like that's something professor latent i know there's a new latent game announced for 2025 i don't know if that's what they're gonna show here um but i think just something something professor latent uh i don't i don't know what's gonna be that's why i said something could just be bringing old games back or something else no idea um dead franchise revival now the key thing here is it has to be at least 10 plus years since we've had a last entry now someone pointed out that donkey kong could count for that and i just note that i don't consider that a dead franchise because even though we haven't had a standalone donkey kong game we did get tropical freeze re-release so i don't count it as dead because they literally re-released the damn the damn donkey kong tropical freeze on switch on top of that we also have the donkey the donkey uh donkey kong versus mario game so i know they're old games but they came back which means those aren't dead they're still actively used characters and actively used ips what would you make of star fox because um star fox zero came out 2016 dead at not 10 years old yeah it's dead star lake content it won't count because it's not it's not it's not 10 years they released star fox 2 yeah i can't just be like oh 2016 oh so seven years ago have you seen how long game development takes that's not even considered dead i mean you could argue yeah people would have said 2d mario is dead right but yeah but yeah so so that's why then the chat came up with the years i said hey chat what should we do for like how long should it be and they said 10 plus and then that question came up with donkey kong i said no no if it's a game they've already brought back and so what is a dead franchise then it's gotta be like dead dead um um like f0 wouldn't count now because f0 99 um punch out so yeah punch out punch out where we race yep we race snowboard kids star tropics star tropics yep yep and when and i don't think we go nso we're not counting if they put the games on nso that's just the original um when a kid or a supper hasn't come out it's close that might be almost then yeah i just one of those ones were where i might actually have to do some math as i'm watching the damn show to see if it actually allowed after the fact uh but either either way i look there's a lot of possibilities for it but it's not going to be a lot of the obvious ones that people think it is because i wouldn't count them because they've been brought back and remastered slash remade kiddicker surprise things a dead nintendo franchise apparently came up with 12 bring it back there you go there you go come on kiddicker surprise anyways how about how about rusty's real deal of baseball remember that no oh hell yeah dude i enjoyed that game 2013 yes right yeah yeah yeah what if push will come out well i have there's a trilogy it's yeah equals so that doesn't count yeah yeah still new so princess peach showtime trailer probably a given that's probably one that will for sure happen i didn't want to name anything i just said a trailer will happen um a sonic game is shown look it's probably gonna be the generations thing but it could be something out does that count is it a sonic game yeah okay what are we talking about here by the way i just want to say you threw me off because you went left to right then i know i know i'm throwing you off i like i like to keep you on your toes is it what i told you about the left scrolling side yes it is you're like you know let's just yes it is thank you for connecting the dots i appreciate anyways a sonic game is shown and you know what it's in my free space this is even a guarantee it's gonna happen but yeah and like this could happen too it could be crazy there could be a game gear announcement for nso that has a sure sonic adventure to sonic i'm just assuming we're gonna get the same trailer maybe like a slightly different version i have no idea it might not we i'm not even gonna assume we're getting the generations thing it's already announced for switch i i don't care i'm not assuming it's gonna be in this direct just it might not need to because it just showed oh it's definitely gonna be there if there is a direct so i wanted to get some indie stuff in of course a pizza tower very popular indie game isn't on switch don't know why it's not it should be so pizza tower all right more indie stuff this was i forgot who suggested this one um but i was like you know what it's probably gonna happen indie game where you play as an animal question about that these technically humans are animals yeah no we're not counting that obviously so that's the idea non human animal yeah non human animals okay yes i know but like an insect one count that's not an animal it's like hollow night one count that's a bug and it's a bug yes not an animal moving on a bug is okay no no no there are completely different categories than the animal kingdom they're in the insect kingdom they're within the animal kingdom kingdom wait i'm gonna i'm googling it right now i don't have to be but bro if you don't know what brook that means google it now as well don't don't they are animals yeah insects are part of the animal kingdom yeah well then that just makes it even more likely that i'm right so it works for me all right insects are part of the group of animals known as arthropods sweet i'll take that victory um new nintendo mobile game but it wasn't true and it was true i want extra animals okay i don't care guys hey just you know fish are animals too fish are also animals as our birds yeah you want to know what has two thumbs and is an animal this guy it was an animal crossing but here's the problem here's the problem if the only game that shows here's a say if an indie game shows and it's silk song i have silk song on my list it would actually disqualify both spots all right here's a derailing question if an alien life form this humanoid comes to earth does that count as an animal no it's an alien i don't think aliens are countered as animals yet are they officially well i don't think i don't think we have is a foreign life for an alien bacteria yeah so what is what what does that alien bacteria fall under the like is that i don't know i don't think this area falls under the animal anything i know guys i would love to consume this comes to you but i'm there's the point where i got you're nater a nice hey hey you made it this long this is the part where i top out you know you're a no because i have a good one buddy yeah man yeah easy everybody anyway so i have a new nintendo mobile game obviously don't know what it's going to be but uh nintendo has closed down some mobile games lately uh so if they do pick them blue me and mottos do some weird pick them blue add again that won't count that's not new i think they're gonna announce a new mobile game i went specific with uh the thing that you know andrew spent more generalized on nintendo museum news it's opening soon and they literally already put it in a direct so why would they do it again when we're even closer to the damn thing opening like we haven't seen like anything inside like i feel like they'll tease some stuff you get people excited to want to come to japan to go to go visit that um a zelda remaster or remake more specific in there because i don't know could be a grezzo remake could drop it could just be twilight princess we make our hd i actually don't think those games are going to be bundled together but doesn't really matter if they're there i win with that spot so um mario sports game i'm actually not that confident that we're going to get a mario sports team i'm almost thinking they're going to hold off to the new system but like there's very there's other sports that could get into like sluggers is the one a lot of people bring up i have no idea like slugger here we go i already know anyways striker all right something oh my god related i didn't say i chose to include this one because the official earthbound account teased that they are doing stuff for the 30th anniversary and since that's the case while none of their teasing in details included earthbound games i think they're going to talk about something earthbound in here for the 30th anniversary one was a while just think about this for a moment nintendo could have a direct and not give us any new games and it could still be extremely hype they could announce a mother through localization they could announce metro prime two win waker and twilight princess and it would be one of the most hype directs ever even though they wouldn't be a single new it would only be hype for hardcore nintendo fans the general audience might not give a shit win waker and twilight princess i think would uh would garner a significant i mean skyward sword hd didn't with the general audience nor did links awakening it was just a hardcore to zelda fans that were excited i mean links awakening sold six and a half million okay and rest of the wild sold 30 million i'm talking to general audience of switch not the hardcore zelda fans well i mean what are you expecting to do with this direct there's not going to be any 30 million seller in this direct exactly so no matter what it's not like it's a hype direct for hardcore fans but honestly the thing is i think in the case for most directs it's not a thing right but they're most directs have like zeno blade ending the show or like well too it's like so too is big or like there's like some ended shows and then you know mario odyssey ended shows and smash bros ended shows and animal crossing ended shows there's been like all their big hitters have ended shows i'm just i'm just saying like we're not expecting the biggest direct ever we're expecting a well i that's what i said i i just disagree with you that it's a super hype direct by having just a pot well i'll tell you this i'm not going to be hyped if it's just a bunch of ports and remasters that's not going to height me up i don't because i don't i don't like i i legitimately just don't really replay games like it's going to be the most boring direct ever it's just a bunch of ports and remasters of games i don't yeah but yeah i think you should also acknowledge you are in the minority i mean look we you could say minority but then just look at how well the game sell compared to the brand new games it's all i'm gonna say i'm gonna leave it at that it's funny we've definitely talked about this before i feel like you definitely agree and disagreed because i brought up you know remakes tend to sell worse than new games you're like nah but yeah anyway let's move on i mean they do sell worse than new games usually usually not always final fantasy is like an exception right now too as he's seven is height that's not really uh remake though no i know technically it's not they gotta stop putting the word remake in it when it's not technically a remake but they did have to trick me with that first one it is and it isn't it's a play on words but yeah yeah i'll go back to link's awakening that that game sold six and a half i'm glad that i said this one is no one else on the list a square enix hd2d rpg a new remake or remastered i mean i actually did well i said our crown trigger i said a new asano game that's the developer yeah yeah but you you guys would like it could be any of the square developers doesn't have to be those specific ones i'm saying i'm saying silk song appears look hope dream pray it keeps saying every year it's coming out and then it doesn't it was supposed to come out like in the first half of last year that it didn't now it's listed for this year might get listed for 2025 might take another 10 years i don't know what's going on at team cherry point is maybe it's time for them to pop their cherry and drop silk song back into a direct because the last time we saw it was an xbox event and that was cool and that was hype and i'm really glad xbox fans are going to get this game come on man but wouldn't that be shown in an indie direct though no it's too big it's too big just like you said you see our there are they do put indie games in standard directs but they're always like bigger ones so i think silk song is a big enough one i mean it was so big that nintendo even had it in their booth back in 2019 and ether you guys should play it back then that's crazy um how long that gave me the late silk song for switch to good i don't know uh and and xbox put it in one of their big events so it's being treated as a bigger indie game so i think it would be put in a standard direct but i don't know i don't know nintendo fans just want to see it because a lot of us got nervous when we saw it in the xbox thing and it didn't mention any platform on it except xbox and we're like did they take this away from us did xbox buy this there's a lot of questions around it because we haven't seen it since then so yeah let's just see what happens i think i by the way i still i think it's just gonna be on all platforms i think that's all that's really going on but um spittoon 3 dlc trailer or info this is just because they haven't really given us much and i don't think there's enough time to do a dedicated thing for it because pokemon day is coming up so i think that like they're going to do kind of the blow out here and then there'll be like a final trailer um before it comes out they got like a week before the pokemon day right so yeah yeah so it's like yeah so it's like i just they'll do it they'll do a final trailer but i think they'll do some hype in this to try to get remind people that it's coming yeah i think it is also dlc right i mean i think they're treating it like an expansion like it seems pretty significant but yeah they're actually it's one of the bigger expansions i've done i mean the game came out in 2022 actually yeah like it's it's been a year and a half yeah that's that's a long time but also the first wave of the dlc was just a hot area boy about a lot with this one they haven't told us a ton i don't it's just weird they've waited this long what if they've intentionally waited just so they have more content for the first probably probably yeah um fire alone remake or remaster look we get remakes and remasters of fire alone games like all the time uh we there's been a rumored one for quite some time just in case it wasn't that one i wanted to be like yeah i wonder if it's a different one we'll see uh i'm pretty i'm i'm kind of confident in the fire alone one and i am confident in the luigi's mansion 2 uh hd date i do think that's going to happen it's listed as a summer game i think they'll announce the date now they're not going to wait till like a june direct to do it i think they'll announce it now because by then we could be talking about switch two and that could overshadow that sort of announcement so i think they'll announce it now you'll notice i didn't put thousand year door trailer or date i actually don't think they're going to show a thousand year door at this event uh i think it is going to be saved for a summer showcase and they're going to talk about it being a cross gen title and that is why it's in the second half of 2024 it was a long little moments where i was both mad and excited at you at the same time that's just a prediction that's obviously not on my thing they obviously could show the damn thing right they've already shown it so like yeah they could they could just show it again but it's one of those things that because they're so like they're not that you know like luigi budget hits summer thousand year door oh it's just 2024 okay that you were very specific for one but the other one you're just giving a general but we've also seen nintendo you know throw us for a loop with with release dates before like they've cut they've dropped games sooner than expected they've changed dates after the game during the directoral i know like yeah they could because both games a bit are content complete we know that because they've been esrb rated yeah so so i don't know uh i feel like it's a fairly realistic one save the switch to i think everything else at least has a chance yeah we'll say and also sick song but you know it might be a year you never know the last time we saw it was also in an early no no no it was a late year never mind that was a late year xbox event of the show not an early one so anyway there's a chance i mean there's a chance i feel like you know it's bad it's bad like a year over a year since we've seen all right there's a chance uh it's like anyone that puts silk song on their list just guarantees that's not going to get filled out but you never know you hope i thought i thought i did all right i thought i did all right i just knew that andres had community help so i'm like i need community help i need to beat him that's the only person i care about beating if i lose to everyone else you look if i lose a super metal dave or if i lose out to like hmk you guys have better ones anyways your your list is the kind of put on her image the games are so much more hype i'd rather those lists be true i want to point out that mine was for fun so was mine so was mine and then you're you're the one that brought up i want to win i don't you don't care about prizes this is for pride yes you made it more competitive it's a copy yeah well that competition is fun well my competition is gonna beat your competition oh i want pizza i am why are we talking about food because i'm hungry ten thousand noodles says he'll beat me in rock paper scissors so that's the thing that good i don't know there's a 50 chance that'll happen yeah right happens um all right let's get to the q and a section to round out our show tonight um you guys can get your questions in just by super chatting we already had some questions and stuff in uh but thank you so much for the ones that have already done it and the first question the answer is yes i still am well um then i'll throw this one out there because that must be the first question yes you still are the penis man we we have established this it says only fans what's the only fans again only fans dot com slash two inch destroyer people get so focused on the two inch they don't hear destroy destroy everyone who has two inches you don't know you don't know you gotta you gotta be there no one is safe from the two inch destroyer okay uh i should be i gotta show this one uh taker 610 holding up his end of a bargain on a bet he had with me uh where he dropped the 50 on the last day of the month he said even though nate forgot i didn't actually forget i just wasn't gonna force you to do it there's a difference anyways i made this bet and i lost i must pay up the bet was switched to would be unveiled in january if i lost a $50 super chat was owed and if nate lost i would re-enact my uh e3 just dance routine a moment of silence for team january no more like a moment of silence for all of you that do not get to see my epic just dance routine well you know technically technically january is not over yet well i mean it's over in like 45 minutes and it's already over in japan but i i think the idea of switch to be announced in the next hour is probably null and void but anyways okay um i i'd roll over funding the money if it happens but it's just it's just it's just not gonna happen by the way remember that right now a free metroid had as well i didn't forget about that one buddy nate remember that rumor affirmed that guy on twitter they covers playstation saying that switch to was going to be in january oh yeah and you and you asked him like hey what about that he's like yeah that's what i heard yeah he said that's the last i heard now he said that back in december but he was he acted like he didn't get updated on it's i have no idea why i was incredibly in the first place the month so like i don't know didn't uh tommy bear knows say the directs february 7 that's what he said right yes i can't wait for next week oh why why was that rumor even even considered credible in the first place though is my question it wasn't it wasn't yeah he's so annoying about it no it was it was very annoying about it so i threw out the video and then i he's been literally i think i think that hidden behind the reason that i'll go off at all and change it and realize that she made a big valentine's day and we think it's gonna be in february so that was like one of three possible dates so it had a little bit of build up just like the last two happened like right after the investor's meeting so like yeah so the last two years first full week of the month on a wednesday it's happened and yeah they're within a week of the of the q3 earnings release so you know we'll see yeah we'll see there's no guarantee anything's happening next week here's the deal well no we don't know if you don't know we're tweeting out things they'll start tweeting out things on monday and then you'll just know it's this week well if yoru starts tweeting tomorrow friday well he did that last he did he did that last time yeah he started early this is just you know we said this conversation was going to come back round i vote for the bricked up podcast from the the mean let's go people have spoken there's no super chats for any other podcast name in the entire stream they're already watching a podcast with a name i don't know yeah no feel free to throw me around guys or donate more for the bricked up podcast we all just make a goal look someone drops a five hundred dollar one next week's episode will be reading to the bricked up podcast oh gosh um this is the funny thing is someone doesn't actually have to do it shit i shouldn't say that i love all right next um jake randall he already did it but you know i i have to show it because i gotta show all the super chats he ate a banana um it was quite interesting as uh there was a very serious metro prime four discussion going on meanwhile we had a banana performance for the peanut gallery that doesn't like metro prime four so grapes yes that's right you have the perfect combo you don't know if you feel if you don't like it until you play it and it hasn't even shown you it so i mean this happened already but just to remind everyone it did go deeper down his throat what is wrong with all the chats today it happens i mean i mean look just to remind you we also got a little slow mo banana eating as well so jake was putting on all the performances for the audience tonight early it was for a birthday come on now we have an actual one you guys didn't have review tech usa on your podcast right so i think i understand what's going on no little crossover there anything is the super we're kind of tame yeah we had him and rgt and and it was all going wild but the super chats were so tame i'm like dude we have all the people out here to go wild and you guys are now keeping it clean what is going on this doesn't make any sense anyways we have an actual question birds this is our superman on day 64 how certain are you with your switch to amd predictions compared to your old switch one predictions i didn't make any yeah i actually really annoyed by that because i saw people giving you flak um on on twitter about this like but wait i saw his video he brought up possibilities yeah there's no prediction there you know what i you know it that gets me mad that gets me like bricked up in anger because i just remember oh see i just remember when you bricked up then you break i mean i mean i mean i guess though maybe you want to let me hear let me address that real quick so yeah the different the difference is is that um i'm i'm just being fair and because what i brought out in my video is that they uh you guys should watch it but the the nvidia partnership is not actually official it was just something that jensen said and that he was uh hoping that they would continue for two decades with nintendo and i said in my video that i actually actually want them to continue with nvidia but due to the uncertainty factor and the end there's questions behind this chip that's rumored for the switch to that i'm gonna go ahead and and list another possible chip that could happen theoretically but it's not like i'm not saying i won't it's gonna happen for sure it's just like there's other chips that can do similar things to that chip that's rumored and here's a possible outcome and that's it it is interesting real quick all the beef that i wanted to say before my computer dies is that i went on your live stream andreis and i was chatting i was keeping it clean and you completely ignored me and you were just yelling about how you've got too angry at people that leave mean comments so you were there at the beginning yes i didn't see it i'm sorry all right if you stuck around i would have saw you eventually i don't know about that the lack of a t he see he didn't get the attention he needs and he left his show hey man i'm sorry i didn't i didn't get to your to your chat i was i was really broke up in anger i was so mad and so hard it's a while but thank you for stopping by glad i could take a little bit before you got extremely angry and hard no i couldn't i couldn't watch that long but it was i never see you streaming so it's cool for a second appreciate yeah but yeah but anyway i'm i'm excited for whatever uh whatever chip to use whatever as long as it as long as it gets the job done but i love i love talking tech on my channel i love talking about the possibilities and speculation on stuff and yep and that video has 31 000 views i mean if nothing else that video is showing i think growth from dave from back in those early days of that was eight that was eight years ago yeah like they have already copped it to the mistakes back then and you know we all make mistakes so like the important thing is when that opportunity comes back around again which now with new hardware learn from it and don't like make statements of something that you don't actually know 100 for sure predictions or just guesses like we're just putting possibilities into the universe um there like like predictions are what they are by the way predictions aren't facts either right like it's just hey i what was the whole damn nintendo direct bingo it's a bunch of predictions on things that probably won't happen or might happen right uh so same thing same thing with the switches i actually watched his entire video the only the only i left one comment i don't know if you saw it there's so many comments on your video probably didn't see it sorry oh man did you get did you get angry and hard because he didn't see your comment i had to correct him on one thing just one thing i got so mad towards the end really what did i say no no it was it was it was just it was just one thing you said that ips panels have better black levels va panels actually have better black levels than ips ips have better viewing angles and colors do you guys spoke at the time but it was just a random statement you threw out oh that was that was just something i actually i didn't actually look that up myself i just stated that because i noticed it from the steam from the steam deck because i've seen the steam deck versus a switch our regular version yeah and it had better black levels from my eyes it's just a better stream but it's not it's it's an ips so but hey you know everyone knows ips is better than regular lcd oh yeah better colors better viewing angles it is massively preferred box and ivy i don't think he's happy birthday you're leaving you're leaving the podcast trying to say happy birthday to you got me you're not you're not allowed to talk to you anymore i'm just i'm just kidding i mean box is leaving i'm just going to try and say happy birthday because it's officially their birthday in 35 minutes a happy birthday box and ivy there we go thank you that's all i'm trying to do here oh we're trying to get out there you know i want to actually saw you in one of my streams without jake present so i appreciate that you're starting to warm up to old prime over here i know i can't replace him there's no replacement for the two inch destroyer but i appreciate seeing you around without this record i'm saying but notice it it was just like one stream but hey it gotta start somewhere i want to go back to the um kind of nvidia stuff because it's like i just i found it interesting you so this is the possibility right i may i am operating on the assumption that it is going to be in video but i think it's worth noting that we don't know for a fact fact yeah it's like we know the contract details yeah and so what's interesting though is that when we're kind of like looking at what we heard about um like the the different um the dlss features now you know they've been saying dlss stuff right like the the hate the hates of the world and such uh and so that that's like the nvidia implication because they're behind that technology but what's interesting right is that there's been a lot of talk about they're not being frame generation right and so like i've made videos on this people say i don't do my research but i literally watch what nvidia says and i just i take what they're literally telling me right not what i'm seeing on a random message board um and so there's you know your dlss 2.0 right and that's just you know that that improves that's the the super sampling right improves the resolution but then at at um the at three you're getting the frame generation right and then 3.5 is the um the ray reconstruction right which is for ray tracing but when we've heard the discussions about free frame generation right because they have a support if they have ray tracing they would imply that they have the most advanced version of dlss which would also in theory they could do frame generation but all people who talk about this say that frame generation is probably not there and so when i think about that and then kind of look at kind of consider what you were talking about in your video right how maybe we're looking at something more customized right like maybe it's not even just like using like we might be looking at something like very customized right that's not necessarily literally what we're seeing in video report about with their own like different version of dlss it might be something something in between there's a patent that Intel's working on for their own AI upscaling right and they're hiring for machine learning as well like i brought out in the video so if they're hiring for machine learning with these customized apis to do their own uh upscaling uh deal they wouldn't have to do that if it was dlss that's just you know that's not necessary to spend the money on hiring people to do that so i'm just putting it out there that i can't ignore those types of things when i when i do tech videos because it bothers me just like with nate bothered bothered him about my block my blocks level yeah it was such a minor but it's uh it's the same thing i might see stuff like that i got to bring it up as a possibility because no one else does if i feel like i need to bring these things up as possibilities just because it's a it's a tech thing where people are you're looking to see what nintendo's doing and when things don't line up i i like to question you know question what's going on but uh almost like a pet phrase you had think for yourself yeah i have all the links in the description nothing i said in there was like you know i wasn't like making things up you know right you also didn't say you also didn't say you believe it's amd right like i saw people on social media saying oh jave's talk about amd again like i don't know that's that's that's that's that's all your video it's a prior reputation thing from the switch one and people just know any part of that was everyone's all such a lot everyone's been saying in video well that's probably why by the way guys that's probably why no one wants to talk about anything else but in video even when there is legitimate questions to be raised because of that because of me back in the day they don't want to be labeled as someone who went against the nvidia narrative but i'm not doing that i'm just i'm just i'm just talking about possibilities and it's fair to do that by the way that's the mistake i made back in 2016 by not by not uh entertaining nvidia i went only with amd that was a big mistake so by not entertaining anything else but nvidia i think is also a mistake because you're putting yourself in a corner in case nintendo changes their mind it's no reason to see what what what this actually is like when we actually see like hard evidence um it so i think it's another interesting part to this right because if you like take for example nate the hate is gospel right then you have you kind of have to assume it's nvidia right because he's talked about dlss you would assume but maybe there's some there's some room for misinterpretation there potentially but then also even the best uh he wasn't the only one that said that but that was brought up also right he's probably pretty much everyone who had sources of the most popular right but yeah no i i understand what you're saying but i guess they've been wrong before right um it doesn't mean they don't they're not coming from a place of validity but there are things that have been off so oh yeah he's definitely been wrong that's for sure yeah they all have at some point right i still think it's normal comes out in every nvidia switch too i'm just gonna go yeah all right then but i guess that the important point here right is that even if like we think that's gonna be one thing we're never 100 certain yeah and so we're gonna talk about possibilities like i think i mean i i have a rtx 4090 like nvidia is by far the best uh choice as but but is it the choice that they actually are making that's the question because there is legit questions i bring up in that video that kind of like could bring some doubt but i would actually prefer it the nvidia chip because they have the absolute best upskilling technology that there is amd sadly is um is uh always a couple sets behind these days one thing you didn't bring up in your video i just i don't remember being brought up is at one point i thought that nvidia just wouldn't really let the contract go because it's like they're only in like if you look at all these portable pcs they're all amd they're all amd they're all amd every now and then you might find it in selva then it's still got an amd gpu um that like oh well we're not going to let this go uh because this is our in into the the mobile gaming space the handheld gaming space by just saying hey we failed on our own but with nintendo look 140 plus million systems old this is insane and that wasn't even designed for them now we have a custom one we don't let that go anybody did this thing at their last major presentation or all they said is the future of nvidia is about ai and that made me start going maybe they just don't give a shit because they don't view what nintendo is doing as their future anyways they're they're making more money in ai now than they are in their pc a gpu sales did you have you seen their earning reports yeah it's skyrocket it's like it's like they made like eight billion on ai and like and like two billion on pc like drastically changed for them um but yeah i only brought that up in the video because they factually there is no factually uh public statement from nvidia or nintendo that there is a 20 year partnership there is a partnership for the switch that we know that for 100 sure but as far as like 10 year with that one original i thought it was a 10 year plan but the thing is which could go on for 10 years but that could just be switch i mean the switch will be around for 10 years yeah that basically just be switched um so yeah that's all it is guys it's just it's just something that um you know it's it when the when you hear things reported and think oh nintendo has a partnership with nvidia for 20 years well they don't it's not that never actually been confirmed that's just hearsay um when you look at the actual statement from jensen more like a stated desire exactly so so that's all i wanted to bring out because because if people assume that it's a locked partnership um that's actually a bad move by any company to lock themselves in for 20 years with a company like that because if they're not if they change their mindset as a company and want to focus on ai like they're doing maybe their goals are not in line with the company after 10 years maybe they have different goals uh that applies for any company out there that's why when whenever there's a new hardware released by any company it's usually a case by case basis to see and shop around what vendor is making what they what fits their needs for that particular product so uh so yeah no let's see what happens i mean i i mean i ventured i guess even when the thing's announced for sure not but you still might not know because nintendo doesn't like to go into the tech that's not something they do unless you literally see them use like a term dlss upscaling to talk about okay fine then obviously we know that's that's nvidia um but if we you know it's kind of like they're using fsr but you never really hear them talk about fsr it's just something they use uh exactly so like nintendo but we also have a new president and we don't know what he's going to market and if it's super iterative and one of the selling points is how much better the games are going to look and perform then maybe he does talk about specs we don't know that's the one thing with the new president is we don't really know what his marketing strategy is going to be for this so um that we'll know what it is obviously but the bottom line is is in my video is that the the actual performance range is what i'm most concerned about not not necessarily the yeah which probably is the tech behind it yeah that's not the that's not important necessarily i like to discuss the possibilities that's why i brought it up of what ship it could possibly be but the most important thing that we got to worry about as fans of nintendo and consumers is what its actual performance is for the games so is it three teraflops doc is it is up to five is it 1.5 you know what like that's what we got to worry about the most eats at me because it's it seems like this i don't everyone on the internet kind of it's like oh yeah so all the rumors say it's like a ps4 and i feel like that is just so misleading and just excited it's i mean we have basic according to our universal nintendo yes the terror like what is it the teraflops for portable mode are comparable but also that's portable mode that's not dock mode which is vastly different and also that's not accounting for you know all the new bells and whistles how technology is now versus the past and maybe dls's features things that nature right so like saying oh it's basically like a ps4 it's just extremely misleading in my opinion from what we've heard and i definitely just eats at me whenever i it's it's across like i hear it and see it everywhere that's why i brought that up in my video too like the ps4 is 2013 technology and it's not mobile based switch to in 2024 if it's around the same range in portable mode or at least just on my even 1.5 like i said it's completely different you can't even compare the performance at all because you're getting way more bang for your buck in 2014 2024 versus 2013 yeah it's it's it's vast so people should throw that comparison out the window i i think basically you know i i think what she's getting shut off in march i hope i hope i'm right and then when that happens we just know this whole ps4 discussion dies but uh something i want to touch on we touched we touched on it earlier but maybe i want to focus on um because on the spirit of like discussing possibilities right because i was actually getting a little bit of flak about other video i posted today um but i put a question in the thumbnail i put two questions in the title and i explained several times doubt and possibilities throughout so i really don't feel like i misled or clickbait in any way um but basically it's just asking the possibility is there an intel direct next week with win waker and try to print his hd and literally the second part of the title is is this too good to be true and that's literally in the thumbnail so how is that clickbait i don't think it is i think people are just good questions it's a discussion right and we have new evidence and so i want to get i want i want to kind of focus on the evidence though right so um i touched on your um your rumor about the um because what do you watch special make for show up during your life right and it just in lines up with what with the historical precedent right so i thought it was worth mentioning but the more interesting thing to me and i saw us on botox games channel right i don't know if that was a first person if he was a first person but that's where i saw it so i i mentioned him and so on game stop right there are um amiibo restocks that are set for um march 8th right one of them it's three different ones they're all zelda one the chic amiibo from smash brothers another is the guardian amiibo from breath of the wild and then another is wolf link from twilight princess sure and so i found that interesting especially also a factor that we're getting the zelda concert next week as well and so i'm like i'm seeing these different zelda things pop up we have the looming zelda lego thing we don't know when that's going to be announced right but that's been leaked like twice already um or leaked and then rumored but whatever and so it just has me thinking but the real sticking point to me is that wolf link amiibo because that was an amiibo launched for the twilight princess back on the we you eight years ago and now they're restocking on it yes you could technically use it for breath of the wild but it's just a little peculiar to me sure and the other thing is that there's a reason we have there's a reason there's a correlation with amiibo restocks and games coming out and announces it's because when there's announcements for and there's a pre order that opens up or there's a game that comes out what happens people go into stores to make the pre orders or to buy the games that come out and so releasing more peripherals than amiibos they then buy them that's why we see these restocks correlate to actual some type of like game news or something and so is there something worthy of note happening on march eighth i don't know but i think the wolf link thing is really curious i don't know we had another super chat i think those games are just in nintendo's back pocket to a confirm that ever honestly that's like it happened and they could drop them at any point right yeah so like it could be shadow dropped and so this is like the last direct before switch to maybe this is the right time to do it none the andrew bright will sever five dollars so chances of anything zealot related to the next direct whenever it may be really really oh the octane time remake yeah that's right yeah but i i guess so i've i've made a lot of videos about it right and i it's this is all another one of my pet peeves um there are rumors about octane time remake but i feel like they're not really strong right or there were some a couple years ago i wouldn't say there's anything strong no right but i do think it's a really good theory right it's why i predict it because we look at all the interviews from enuma sure it like quotes from enuma right that's not a rumor that those are that's that's evidence it doesn't prove it but it supports the theory right and so i don't think i don't like i don't like referring to it as a rumor um but i'll tell you the idea behind it is if you just look at it historically nintendo when they close out a generation with a big zelda game they like to open up the next generation with some type of repurposed zelda game to bring in that zelda fanbase have something that showcases the system and so that's part of why i've been on the octane time remake hype train but with that in mind that means it would be coming for switch two and so i just don't i wouldn't expect an octane time remake to be shown in this direct because i don't think this direct will have anything to do with switch two and i also think it would probably not even be a launch title like maybe first year first year and a half um so that's why i've been kind of like maybe 2025 um but i i'm not prepared for this theoretical remake to happen in a direct this month i don't know if you guys have anything else to add to that but i think you covered it man very good appreciate that and this is a great time for me to step away i mean we continue talking i mean actually i uh i i gotta get going though i honestly it's it's been
