We'll get to it in a moment. I was talking to Eric about this earlier It's kind of funny, but um We'll leave that alone right now. We also Eric here by the way. Hello everybody. That's right All right, so We first need to get into a few things one. What have you been playing lately? Let's just start like we always do Let's not get off track here. What games have we been playing lately? We're gonna start with Mike So I've been playing Final Fantasy It's like name again Final Fantasy remake Return to something I don't know the new Final Fantasy game that just came out the port from What when did it come out again? I don't know I came out yesterday. I started playing yesterday. It's that new Final Fantasy What's the name again? This is a Somebody in a check and somebody help me. You got crisis core. There you go. Final Fantasy crisis core on the switch Been having a lot of fun with it. I mean Now I'm hooked. I'm hooked. So basically I I completed Pokemon skull and Riley I Got all the Pokemon. I Completed my deck all three all three stories. I've done everything I need to do in Pokemon, but catch a shiny You know, I've been playing that they don't exist Never caught a shiny. They don't exist people just color them differently and then they send to me They they do something with the code they have the game and sent it on the side Yeah, they hacked the game and like, oh, look at what I said, you know, you didn't just hack the game but I Get I gave up catching shiny a little break to play crushes core. I am enjoying that game a Lot on the switch I didn't get I could have gotten it on ps5 or on Xbox series X Which is you know power for systems, but I got it on switch And I gotta say I'm enjoying it and it runs Amazing on switch as well. It looks it looks and it runs amazing on switch. So that's what I've been doing this week crisis core. Oh Yeah, police simulator. Yeah working on the video Is that the other police simulator or is that the I don't know which one there's two of them There's two police simulator. Yeah, there's bus simulator and this place. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. So it's that police simulator Got it. Got it. Yeah. Yeah, police simulator. Yeah. Yeah Still working on that one crushes core. I'm right now That's that that's the game that I have on my mind right now. I want to go back to play with so yeah Nice Eric, what are you been playing lately? I'm gonna be boring and see the same game. I've been playing for boring Works hope you make it to world for yet. Not quite yet. It should be there pretty almost on three. Yeah, okay It's okay. Okay. I think I I Looked at my final stats as I don't know Nintendo released the things and I you can look up your stats for the year Because the numbers on my switch aren't accurate as an example. It says I played zero hours of Breath of the Wild um Just live streams alone. There's over a hundred hours a gameplay for me on YouTube So it's yeah, these I don't know the numbers at some point just stop being accurate. Anyways I think sparks. I hope took me it said 33 hours What I spent on my game to beat it. That's almost 100% very close. It's like 98 some percent So there's that we let me see What's your favorite part of the game so far? God has been so stretched or does it suck? No, no, no, I like it game sucks. Oh, yeah confirmed totally Man Some of the puzzles are really fun. Yeah puzzles getting you. Yeah. No, not getting me just like fun. Yeah, they're fun I don't like the statue turning and like pointing things in certain directions. It's like you solve their swivel and They need to turn the statues and it's like, oh, that's actually kind of cool It's a repeated thing. Yeah, that's a statue turning per se. There's a riddle aspect in every dungeon knockoff captain toad. Yeah So no that that I do like that some of the big like the main characters from each World are pretty cool. So The bosses are pretty fun as as as they were in the first game. So, you know, I'm just I'm just having I'm just having fun That's it. Just slowly playing through it and you know Enjoying it. So awesome So for me over the last week It's been it's been an interesting week because of It's holiday time guys So there's been a lot of family functions happening my kids having Christmas concerts There was this big family trip to Minnesota where we all went to Disney on ice and you would think some of some times in here like you would get to play video games because Hey, there's all this stuff going on which means there should be not like a gotta go to Minnesota So I'm the one driving Fucking So my video game time has actually been very very hard to come by because all my free time has been taken up and Even next week I got my baby niece. I'm watching for two nights and usually when I get to play guys is after these shows Or you know randomly throughout the week when I'm at home, but I haven't really been home a whole lot So the only game that got some some PT was Madden and Some of you guys saw me streaming actually one of my playoff games on Twitch because I do stream Some of my games over on Twitch if people want to check it out I don't I don't have a microphone or anything. So you don't really hear me talk I used to have a set up where I talked but Honestly, not enough people watch on Twitch for me to care and that usually Usually I'm streaming it because the league requires me to especially play off games because they want proof If something happens something did happen in that playoff game I picked them off to go up 10 points late in the game and then his game crashed So the stream was proof that I did do that. And so I got the win Of course Madden is all borked right now. They did some update yesterday and now nobody can play so What a shocker Anyways, so I did get some man game just because some games I did forfeit by the way So it's not like oh, he's fighting time for Matt No, sometimes some days I had to forfeit my game, but I'm not forfeiting playoff games so I'm gonna get my playoff games in as the Miami Dolphins was my team and No, Tua is not my quarterback Bonus cookies to anyone in the chat who can name the quarterback. It is someone who's on the Dolphins You can name my story killed Who's a promise land, baby? I think he might actually make I think he might actually make the Pro Bowl We'll see he is right now ranked as the number third highest Ranked quarterback in the AFC in the game right now for me. I'm not not in real life I'll be surprised if anyone even knows who Who backup quarterbacks are for for and by the way, I still have to my team. So there's that too, but hey, hey, hey, bro Pedro no, no Pedro no Pedro So that's that's the stuff I got in this week Uncle Rico is your backup quarterback I feel kind of sad, but the games I want to play on switch right now. I think Looking at what I have going on. I am torn between going back and Finishing off Sonic frontiers or Xenoblade Chronicles 3. I want to beat one of those two games before fire Emblem Engage comes out So I'm torn which one I'm gonna go back and beat first. I think Sonic will probably be the faster one to do Gotta go fast And it's all it's all 2.5 million. So Maybe I should finish that one off because it'd be quicker, but then I think it's probably the better game So I kind of feel like I'm cheating myself by not having beaten Xenoblade Chronicles 3 yet So I I don't know a part of me thinks I should just put the time into it Plus it'll set me up or fire Emblem because fire Emblem is another game that you really sink time into as well Not quite as much as Xenoblade. I'll probably only sink 30 40 hours in the fire Emblem before I beat it but The reason I'm looking at these longer play games is I'm trying to get myself used to a schedule of playing longer games Because Zelda's coming out I don't know if you guys heard in May 12 So I'm kind of in this mood to start getting back into playing longer games because most of 2022 I spent playing Short play games and that was very obvious when I was looking at my stats for this year You know besides Sparks of Hope Sparks of Hope is the game that I personally spent the most time playing but then I got all these other games with like three to ten hours and That's because that's all I needed to beat those games My strikers did everything in it not the DLC obviously or the downloadable content But did all the stuff in that in six hours Then then you jump over to Kirby okay, I beat Kirby in 11 hours So like all these games that I played this year. I didn't really need to play them for very long to get my fill so Dino blades that one game that I know takes a long time and Because of that I've been procrastinating on actually beating it But I think that is what I'm going to play next heading into Fire Emblem engage and then after that We'll see because I'll travel or two comes out which is another sort of long game So if I can beat Fire Emblem engage before then then do Autopad Traveler 2 and then we get to March where the new Bayonetta game comes out and I don't know how long that game is going to be So I might play that then there's also in the back of my mind. I Haven't played Bayonetta 3 yet And I told because I told myself I will not play it till I beat Xenoblade Because I don't want to build up this back catalog of these super long games. I want to play so Then I'm thinking I can't just play the origin game without playing three even though origins is before So do I dedicate the entire month of March to nothing but Bayonetta all month? I have no idea So I'm I'm a little torn a helmet approach things, but I believe Coming up. I will have a little bit of downtime during some of the holiday stuff coming up That maybe it's time for me to deep dive back into Xenoblade because every time I play Xenoblade I want to play at least three hours at a time Yeah, I don't want no piddly half-hour session. I'm gonna I'm gonna pound three hours out So maybe I think the order for now is going to be starting tomorrow, I will Please start playing Xenoblade 3 again, and then that'll be what I play and beat up to engage And then if I beat it before engage then I'll go play Sonic Frontiers Then I'll do engage then I'll do opera traveler to then I'll do Xenoblade 3 And I'm sure I'll have time in March to still get origins out of the way And that takes us to April so It's gonna be it's gonna be interesting to see how how things play out But I'm trying to get into these longer games now Because I'm really out of practice with long games. Yeah, I honestly the I was looking back at the games that I played over the last three years and almost every single one of them I've beaten under 30 hours and Zelda I had over 400 Probably at this point now because it reset on the new system is probably over 600 hours in Breath of the Wild I haven't played a game like you know Like sunk my teeth in that deep in a long time So I'm trying to get my mind Wrapped around the idea that I'm going to spend every waking free moment playing Zelda, right? If I'm not streaming if I'm not dropping videos if I'm not doing family things I'm probably playing Zelda and getting yelled at by Yulia for not holding her hand in bed because I'm too busy playing Zelda Just buy a mannequin hand and buy a mannequin hand for the warmer on it. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, but no so that's sort of my plan But right now it was a light week, but it's about it basically I'm about to say it's about to get pretty heavy And I'm kind of excited about that. I'm sort of one of the few times excited. I have this backlog of like two, you know Zeno Bay three sonic frontiers and Bandana three that I'm gonna be hitting up here before Zelda. I'm really excited for that Because it's like all you guys that already have all your fun with those games all my fun's ahead of me And I'll probably talk a little bit about the podcast. So that'll be fun I don't Brian might have something to say about it though. I mean he did say Zeno Bay Chronicles 3 do it Thanks for that. Thanks for the 990. Yeah, Brian. You you're awesome as always Alright, so That being said I think it's time To get into our first topic and I don't know we're gonna spend a lot of time on this basically the game awards happened last week Hey guys, have any quick thoughts on the game or before I go over the betting special because that's really That's really what it's about today. I Mean happened. I don't know but all I know is that a reformed rabbi Bill Clinton is coming back I decided to to stick with the home team and The home team did not let me down I had I had an enormous reaction for every single announcement for Nintendo because it was so unexpected especially after Hearing Nate like my source for for for game for game awards. Everything Nick game awards was Nate K Nate from Nintendo Prime. Yeah, you should get more you should be a better source That was my only source because to be honest at the beginning. I wasn't wait. I wasn't I wasn't too Interested in game awards, you know, I'm I get excited for you three to be fair I think this is the best game awards. There's ever been so you chose like the Yeah, I think I think so too. I think so too, but I Before this year. I wasn't that excited about game awards. You know, of course I just streamed it and I watched it just a hot fun just to have an event and stuff like that But man, I was I was excited about all the Nintendo awards. How about say one the the new game? I mean Nintendo was present at the game awards. They they showcase a brand new game It was awesome, you know because Nintendo was present, but then I wasn't present. He was like, yeah, you know but yeah, I mean home team Xbox fans are probably the ones most let down because it's at Microsoft's home theater They have all these games coming and not a single one was shown on granted They've shown one off now since then and I know Phil Spencer said they got a lot of plans to show stuff Part of me thinks that Phil because I think Phil makes up pretty much all these decisions I don't I don't know how much he delegates that maybe he's been so focused on the at Division Blizzard deal that he really wasn't even thinking about the game awards That's my only thought process because I don't know why Microsoft wouldn't take advantage of the because Sony had stuff shown here in Nintendo had Three things right Mario movie the new bayonetta game and DLC for Fire Emblem engaged So like Nintendo they brought the goods like we could say oh really we're seeing the DLC or fireman gate Hey, you know what they could they didn't have to bring anything They didn't last year and they gave us three things. So I'll take that plus I thought the show ran What was pretty good? I thought I thought it was pretty concise. I know the one speech ran eight minutes But it was a good speech Overall, that was a good show It's pretty good show. I mean it was it was it to me believe it or not to me It was a good speech a great speech not only that but having This this this actor I'm really Stuff he's the legend Al Pacino Al Pacino you're having Al Pacino on stage at the game awards gave that award just more credibility, you know, I mean and and what Al Pacino said on stage about, you know Actors being actors no matter where you are. Well, you're standing. It's like it's like calling out Look, listen if you are an actor whether you're in Hollywood whether you are at home If you're a voice actor this night you are an actor and all actors deserve to be you know Lifted and pray so I think for voice actors in general It was a big moment to have not only Al Pacino there this this actor who won Which he himself was saying that When he first Told they told him about about about the game or they told him about the job. They said oh, you're playing this character He's like this like that. Oh, he was like really into it until they told him it was a video game So he himself was like a little bit doubtful before getting that role But then seeing the how how great that role grew and then how big it was for him in his career And it made all the difference in the world. So for for gaming when it comes to voice actors That was a big moment. That was a huge one. I'm pretty sure that a whole bunch of voice actors at home were like Balling at that time. You know, I mean, I mean he did he did take it a little a little long Yeah, I felt like verification of the whole profession Yeah, it is it was it was awesome Yeah, so I think Jeff Keely is now kind of set the stage that he'll probably have some major actor hand out that Award every year. Yeah. Yeah, I think that I think you should be that way from now on. Yeah, it's awesome Did you also make an appearance? Yeah, he was the guy he presented the game at the year. Okay. Yeah, I again, I didn't see it So yeah, yeah, he had a little he had a little diddy about how He said, you know, whether you win the award or not the best part is this orchestra that's about to play Because when you hear your music next to all these other great games that you're gonna get like goosebumps And because he did last year obviously his game won it last year it takes two Yeah, that was that was pretty cool. I thought I thought the whole show was pretty good I thought the commercials are what they are They were all video game related. It didn't seem overbearing It was very clear when it was a commercial break this time versus other years It kind of feels like Jeff Keely finally listened to feedback And even when he put up a poll afterwards how people felt For the first time ever The fans gave him an A For the show. Yeah, well, and he's never gotten that on his pole It's always been C or B sometimes a D and for the first time we got a so he I mean credit the Jeff Keely For listening and and honestly whether Nintendo show games or not He put on a good show and the other games he showed from other platforms were all really good game I mean, yes, he's a survivor for the first time. Oh, yeah, there was a there were so many good games shown off So You have to see, you know the new game from the the makers of Dead Space. I came to incredible. So I'm really happy for Jeff to put on such a show even though there was that embarrassing moment at the end with that 20-something-year-old guy that snuck onto the stage and Dedicated hey, it's my turn to talk Compro I not I nominate my my Whatever it was something rabbi rabbi my reformed rabbi Bill Clinton Okay, I gotta watch that part. Yeah. What the hell dude. You didn't see that part. Oh, oh It was like right at the end. The kid got arrested. I guess he's 15. Okay. I don't know He's been on a bunch of shows. He's crashed a bunch of things he was he's An attention seeker he was on info wars At one point it did they got that I don't know Look, there's a there's a whole a bunch of articles out there about how the kid pulled this off And how he actually bragged that he was going to do this to certain people behind the scenes and it's all explained I even did some interviews about I don't know he has is This is probably the biggest event. He's done it at in front of the biggest crowd and If he's looking at e-famous, he certainly will probably forever be remembered For his reformed rabbi Bill Clinton. Yeah He just said he's a Bill Clinton fan The big takeaway from his interviews. I really like Bill Clinton. Okay Sure, that's crazy. I mean based on your age, you weren't alive when he mattered, but You know How you're a fan of him is beyond me, but hey If anything it's gonna probably tighten the security around the event. Yeah next time And I don't think that kids can get back in At least it was him and not somebody else Person or yeah, it could have been much worse You know, yeah, yeah, just that just consider it like a a test, you know thinking they could get better That's nice. You just you became a meme and and life moves on Who knows we'll ever hear we'll hear about this kid who know I mean so young, you know, he might pull off some other crazy stunts Somewhere else and that just becomes what he gets known for is going to big events and interrupting shows, but I mean I Just went to YouTube and typed in reform and let's see the first four things are reformed rabbi game awards Yeah reformed orthodox rabbi reformed orthodox rabbi reaction one of the views and reformed orthodox rabbi bill No, that's just a search. You know, what are the what are the views on the videos? I don't know. I haven't clicked on any of this. That was just a search terms. Oh That's the top four search terms. Oh, you haven't looked at it. Okay. No, I didn't actually hit enter. No, no I don't I didn't bother looking at it. I saw a lot Reform grab by game awards You see I see 110,000 I see 60 30 thousands of a short 83,000 224,000 views of a short around it.

He's done an ad he's done that some other things as well But not to this degree. He didn't get this many words out at the other stuff but That being said you guys don't remember we did a betting special around the game awards We basically bet on all the games and just randomly decided points for different awards literally randomly and We do have a winner and first off You have to go over what happens so the losers for an episode of the podcast have to wear as Best as they can up to them if they want to go out of the way and buy stuff for it It's whatever.

I don't have a drum roll button over here. I probably should add one Yeah, that's And the winner is with a total of 68 points This is a land slide victory not even close It is more than double the other two The other The other people's two scores combined would still lose Oh The winner is No, I'm way to see. Does anybody does anybody in the chat have any guess on who the winner is I? No, no, that's okay. That's okay The winner is Where's my cheer button? I got to enjoy this one That's not the right. That means you won but the winner is Eric Moore really Holy shit Are you serious? Wasn't even wow So some of his big wins that nobody else won he got game of the year correct Ah, yes, that was a 12.

Just massacre does Mike when Final Fantasy 16 You know for all those home team talk. Yeah, I actually didn't take the home team that often Final Fantasy what for what you think Final Fantasy 16 for most anticipated game I think you were in the process of playing Listen because I couldn't believe that Mike did I type this wrong? No You originally said tears of the and then I was sitting there. I'm like, yeah, I just don't know I'm going star for Nick. You know what Final Fantasy?

Yeah, they're there hasn't been that bad since that year They have more organized even Lincoln's waking even really wasn't that long to wait for if they split it out Yeah, but even it still wasn't that long. No anyways So that's that's the deal me and my god dressed as princess peach Eric It's a trophy handed to him live on the podcast gets to enjoy it. Enjoy your victory revel in it While you can Well, you can yeah, while you can for the next seven months. Yeah It's because E3 is not for a while basically guys for those of you know our betting specials happen basically twice a year We do want to use it for summer game plus E3 And then we have one for the game awards. So basically when prime gaming fest happens That's when we usually have that we've tried to do it before for directs, but we don't have enough Headway on when directs are happening. Yeah, like we can oh, it's February. There'll be a direct So let's just do a betting special for it, but we don't know there'll be one So oh god, I still remember some of her old ones with like good to go to bingo cards, though Yeah, we could do we could do bingo cards. That is something people do for directs. Yeah Let's do it. So we'll see And by the way, the bingo cards could be anything like if you just what if you want to just want to say There will be a shot of of I don't know some video game characters ass That's a spot on your card if you want if you want to do that As long as they show Bayonetta, you're fine. Yeah, there's a big other game. You're probably good. Yeah, you're good All right So let's get into the headline topic today We have the next Generation, let me hit this marker here. Yeah, that way I might actually clip this out We have our next generation Talk here because there's basically a lot of speculation going on For either next generation hardware or if not that maybe a switch pro or something I don't know if that's a thing people still think is happening, but Possibly anyway, some new upgraded hardware for 2023. There's a lot of stuff We have a lot of actually quite a bit of notes here on things that could be leaning towards towards this presumption next year and Obviously it's years of the kingdom That's that's been a demon for a while since we knew the release date since we knew it was coming out We would just go hey, it's a new Zelle game They like to release all the games a new hardware sometimes or hybrid revisions and this game So it's be bigger better than Breath of the Wild and maybe they want more juice to make longer draw distances and better frame rates And who knows right so there's that There's the fact that recently we just had announced this week when Hogwarts legacy is coming out It's coming out July 25th for Nintendo switch, which is five months later than it comes out And play PS5 and Xbox series and three months later than it comes out on PlayStation 4 and Xbox one and To date we still have no confirmation on if Hogwarts legacy is going to be a cloud game or local There are box art out there that says requires a download But it also has that on the Xbox series one So and that one's local so we what does that really mean one patch? Yeah day one patch Or so I have no idea so we don't really know if this is local or cloud So that's a caveat to that but also cloud versions don't need to be delayed five months They're not even running on the switch So it'd be it's weird if it if it's about a five-month delay for a cloud version Unless they're really not close to hitting the switch In Hogwarts like you see it's brought up They just did another gameplay showcase today and it looks incredible like it's an incredibly visually stunning hyper realistic game that that really brings Hogwarts and Hogsmeade and all this stuff to life Which means they probably gonna buy my sister a switch in that game. There's no Harry Potter in it So now I'm but still I was gonna say there's no actual Harry Potter. It's before Harry. I think it's before Harry Potter It is the world and it looks incredible and it might be the best Harry Potter game ever. It looks it looks incredible Literally this has best Harry Potter game potential damn it which would mean I had probably come on on the new switch Knock back probably hopefully bear probably not compatible with the old switch, which means Dammit because I was planning on possibly just giving my my old switch to my sister when I'm you know when I upgrade mine But just get her a series ass, baby. Yeah. Yeah, so they don't expect like it I mean I have I have my axe, but yeah, yeah, I mean you can give that to me and she can have my ass Anyways, so We also have the fact that Nintendo's lineup next year beyond Zelda is kind of a light lineup Fire Emblem Engage big game, but doesn't need like a lot of horsepower for that one that the band and our origins doesn't either Pikmin 4 could be one that maybe you want a bit more horsepower for but also it's Pikmin You don't necessarily need a lot of horsepower per se I know they do some realistic items in the world, but they've done a good job Even with Pikmin 3 you looks really good on switch So they don't really have a big lineup at the moment and the reason that that matters Would be that they're holding a lot of games close to the vows for the new system basically And these are just like the only big seller in there guys is Zelda like that's the big seller Yeah, because games would actually give away that there is something coming because Like if we knew what if we knew what Pokemon and a new Mario and all stuff coming like oh, you know, they're next year set They don't got to worry about it. Yeah Next up Patents Mike want to explain what's happening with the patents. You're like the patent maestro over there maestro Yeah, just I like I like I like investigative journalism. Sometimes when there's no news. I like to make me so basically I Every now and then I go put patent hunting not only for Nintendo I look at pants for everything like for Apple for Samsung for for technology like just tech and as a whole right and It's not that I'm literally just searching for Nintendo is that I just look at patents and I happen to come across like I just come across a Nintendo one, right? I was looking for I was looking at one for for this TV Apparently with the put something on it that it's super paper thin or whatever, right? And it's a AK resolution with a whole bunch of other stuff, but then I saw the Nintendo one for the controller one I basically the the pattern that I Found was had to do with two things which is very weird, right? It was very weird what it would have to do with the mechanical part of the controller One of them was a new form of d-pad not the What we have now like These buttons that we have now that are there that are considered I guess To be the d-pad of the controller we have now, but they're really not they're just you know up and down and left and right But it was actually an actual d-pad across pad and the other one was for a new type of joystick So we have the actual cross d-pad and a joystick Basically the pattern was was was granted on the 16th of November And then the other pattern for the the the OLED Model update was granted on the 30th. So they're very close together. It's it's weird that that one of the patents Just showed the console right and in the dock by itself and then all of a sudden we have another pattern With with with with controller mechanics in it new controller mechanics in it So when you put it to the two and two together usually say, okay, this is just this is just two things into one You can't mix them because then that will give too much away Imagine if if you saw the the joy the the new the first pattern Where we saw the switch OLED in the dock and then you see a controller, but with a d-pad instead of this You know if then you'll say, okay that that kind of gives it away as well Like this is a brand new thing because we don't have a controller right now a joy con that has an actual d-pad on it It only has those four buttons on it. So That's just my speculation, you know, they they separated them so that it doesn't seem that obvious that we are getting Not a next generation console like a brand new Another name console, but a brand new An upgraded console an upgraded switch, you know whether and I don't think they're gonna go with switch to they're not gonna go with switch Super switch although we want it to hear super switch I'm pretty sure they're gonna say the new Nintendo switch or Nintendo switch 4k edition or Nintendo switch maybe the things they could call pro pro edition. They'll add the addition to it Just so they don't kind of merge the names Just keep the Nintendo switch family of systems alive and then later on in 2020 2024 or 2025 We'll see the next generation console. But yeah, when it comes to the pattern wise That's where I I draw the conclusion that that was the first one we found was Had to do with an upgrade upgrade switch model the second one with for the with the controller Not not just not even a controller just the D-pad and control stick yeah, yeah Just the the D-pad and control stick have to do with the mechanics because maybe they plan on using the same exact form factor everything on the the Controller itself does not change. The only thing that changes is of course the new Joystick because of course they need to improve and get rid of the They're perfect. They're perfect all joysticks are gonna drift eventually. Yeah, yeah, but maybe that yeah, you know It's like I look at that pattern by the way, I wanted to see sorry I want I started in a rub I just wanted to see if that pad was a hall sensing joystick. I could tell you it's not a hall sensing joystick. Sorry that sucks Yeah, yeah, that's what I was gonna mention that that just like that company that sponsored your sponsored your channel the What do we call the the giveaways? Yeah, the gully-kit King Kong Pro 2 control. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, they have that that type of the dog Nintendo themselves have tried to come up with their own type of controller Maybe you know, there's this there's a lot of things that we could we could kind of say about this. Maybe these new Additions to the joy to the joy con will add some type of feature to it Maybe some type of haptic that will make it more, you know Interactive to play with for example, you know how the the ps5 joy Triggers they have that haptic. Yeah, that really cool haptic there There's something, you know, they look to be working something in that way that way they kind of they need a deep pad instead of these buttons In order to work with that that type of haptic There's there's a lot that that that we can kind of say about this But we wouldn't really know until until something comes out until Nintendo actually, you know Exposes what is whatever they have behind the the blank it or the the shower curtain or the or the Door behind the curtain, maybe I'm the crane but yeah, I mean there's there's just too much out there, you know, there's smoke there's fire and The lack of games Nintendo announcing the lack of games this when you put it all together There is smoke. There is something out there. We don't know what it is Nintendo's, you know You know and then when I saw Harry Potter today the presentation the Hogwarts legacy man That game look amazing the graphic of the graphics on that game the way that game handled Incredible I was like what the heck they got after the game comes out. They're gonna say breath of the what? you know cuz It looked crazy, you know, it looked amazing the way it ran I don't know where they were they were running it on maybe they were working there They were running some type of developer Edition of it because I know they had they could change the seasons Right there on point, but I know Nate. I hate I hate a point there because It's your favorite game, but it's still man. That's okay It's good. It's good. I mean, yeah, I'm just guess I'm It's happening. I that's probably why they delayed the they delayed Hogwarts legacy for For that season because I think that the the new console would have been out by that time And they could do a proper launch, you know Yeah, look, I've been talking about this system whether it's a pro or a two or whatever for a long time years and What's funny is The person who said they would stop talking about it can't stop talking about it I'm never gonna let that go I wasn't gonna talk about it. I'm not gonna talk about I'm not gonna say no more rumors No, I'm about this. No for I say you did a whole week dedicated to it. That was nothing but speculation. I Said but something button news and then I can give you my opinion on the findings. That's not Rumors, that's just an opinion on Findings now if I go and I see a rumor it says okay rumor says that the switch will come in yellow and purple and green and And it'll it'll fly. It'll have like a little On the bottom and then float around, you know, and then I'll have a spoon that will feed you automatically That's what rumor says Let me I'm gonna tell you that the state of events. I because I'm on Mike's channel I remember the exact episode that he said he wasn't gonna do this. He's like, I'm not gonna talk about rumors anymore I'm gonna wait for actual news, which by the way Yeah, we've actually had zero news that a switch pro or switch to even exist We've had none that hasn't actually been anything all it's been is speculation There's been no actual news So I bring this up because he was tired of talking more rumors. He was tired of talking about switch pro his own words a Week later he made a video on it and he's had at least like one every single week since and he did a whole week dedicated to it He's talked about switch pro or switch to or next Nintendo I think more than any other YouTube channel since the day he said he doesn't want to talk about it anymore Yeah, and I've actually I've actually benefited look I do not see why people were doing it on the side And the feedback I think great upon it because the thing is that I when I Rumors anymore like like for example When I said it I was talking about the fact that we were just let down with the switch old ed And people were upset the fact that that we kept saying oh, it's coming this day It's coming this day. Oh, this is coming. This is coming when it comes to rumors that that we were just repeating You know from everybody did it. It's nobody's fault because it was credible Bloomberg. Hello, you know So it was really nobody's fault But when I said I'm not gonna talk about switch rumors switch pro rumors anymore Not that I'm not gonna talk about the switch pro itself You know, but I only talk about it when there is the evidence of it For example, you find something tangible like for example, I There's no news. I made the news, right? I found some some patterns that could So there was no news That's what you that's what you do as an investigative journalist you actually make the news you do That's not exactly how investigative journalism works. It's not exactly 100% Journalism is investigating yourself and then publishing it for for the for your followers. Yes read and to follow That is basically your your your your finding and then you're reporting. That's you investigate you study You you look at things and then you recruit you create upon upon your finding that's investigative journalism I took this is funny listening to it Mike sounds like me I mean But to be fair your investigative journalism is based on your opinion that it is related to something It might have no relation to at all. Yeah, exactly. I say in every video I say look this could very well be another edition like a switch OLED breath of the wild edition or this could be another game edition that we might be expecting But this could just all be that I present the two options that Not in your title of thumbnail. You don't Oh that not in that title and thumbnail, you don't well I know I in the title and I can't really put my entire opinion on the title and thumbnail. I just so titles like this He literally sounds like I'm talking to myself. I love it as long as long as what I talk about is in the thumbnail Yeah, no, I think yeah It's it's good. It's good to go. I put the most enticing part of my topic in the thumbnail And I make it and I make it as exciting as how I feel about what I'm talking about Mike I did the same thing today and half my comment section hated me and I lost subscribers except I'm a clickbait artist Clickbait artist apparently an artist kind of sewer I think this is the last straw why? Because the wind waker was in the title and in the thumbnail and in the video By the way, the title thumbnail don't even promise that wind wakers come into anything nintendo switch And and and I updated the title to further clarify this point because apparently just saying the wind waker I didn't even say hd wasn't enough Because there was a brand new licensed Like like album coming out for the anniversary of the 20th anniversary of the wind waker So it was like this is actual zelda news. We're gonna talk about people got mad because they're like nope Nope. Nope. Nope. It was you're playing with my heart strings. You made me think that it was announced I gotta be May I gotta be honest when I saw it. I could I could not click faster Well, that's a point I thought that wind waker was coming up to the nintendo switch I'm like, dude, I I like I don't remember clicking on the video faster than this Because it's finally then I see the the wind waker on the switch pro And the thing is here Well, here's the thing the finally part is about a big about a big game gets a switch release date Okay, right? You don't ever put the big game in the title because you want you know Ties people to click. Yeah, and you don't want to put you don't want to you don't want to tease the big game Too much in the thumbnail Unless it's a game that you know is going to give a lot of clicks, right? Like if the big game is I don't know Grand Theft Auto 5. Yeah, you'd probably put an image of Grand Theft Auto 5 on a switch or whatever in the thumbnail But the thing is there is an image of the game of the thumbnail that beast coming in from the left That is directly from Hogwarts legacy What I didn't even notice It takes up a third of the thumbnail It seems like like like the ad just like a border kind of Like the border it's it might be a fourth of the thumbnail either way Either way finally Wind Waker and I'm like big game gets rid. What can I go? Here's the thing. Here's the thing. Here's why what happens people see this stuff They make a something they see Wind Waker They see on what something that looks like a switch and they're like, oh, oh man You know what no one got mad The fact that there's actually a fake image of a fake switch pro Nobody got mad about that Everyone got mad about the Wind Waker the Wind Waker isn't shown on a device that actually exists right the whole point is All of this is talked about here's the thing All of this is talked about the Wind Waker is talked about in the video about a new album dropping The image that's on the left that I didn't even see that is the headline topic And then the switch pro is a brief reference to the Hogwarts legacy delay referencing switch force who said that maybe it's delayed for new hardware So it's all related and talked about in the video The raw definition of clickbait is is creating a thumbnail and title in terms of youtube that gets people to click There is not a lie told on my video. Well, you did speak about everything. That's on the thumbnail And in the title Yeah, yeah, you did you did you actually did yeah What you call this is really good clickbait That didn't bait and switch you yeah, you just made an assumption It's very very very very much clickbait, but it's not yeah the piss poor clickbait. There's not a lie told There's no lie. I'm not lying to you Unless you want to say unless you want to say the lie is that it shows the Wind Waker on a device that doesn't exist No, actually what it does it is not clickbait It just invites you to come up with your own conclusion as you read because Finally a big game gets released and then the game that you see is Wind Waker But originally there was not new so it says comma new it was the Wind Waker, but it was comma If people don't know comma indicates new topic in a title For those that are unaware when you watch news stories, you'll see like philip defranco and other ones comma equals new topic So the Wind Waker wasn't related to the first topic And if I really wanted to bait people I want to put the comma there I want to put like brand new breaking news on the Wind Waker I could have really baited people if I wanted to with the Wind Waker and I chose not to So people think this is bad I could have switched forced it And I love you zack, but you know you love you're great at the clickbait I could have switched forced the hell out of it And I didn't I thought I did a good job, but And I even updated the title an hour and a half after upload once I saw people getting mad and I said okay Well in the title it now says new The Wind Waker album so it literally says what the news is in the title now Any complaints you just didn't read the title? No Yeah, sorry should I put some music notes? Maybe around around the thing I don't know how that's people are going to start assuming that there was like new speakers or something. Yeah, right Yeah, I think I think what I think that's a wolf right in the corner. Uh, no, it's not a wolf What is it? I don't see like some wolf. I don't know what it's called if you look up hog walks legacy Screenshots is where I got it from And I just looked through the images. It was one where the character had their hand on his face And now there's even more of them because of today. So now it might be even harder to find Because I found it last time. I don't know anyways the character has her hand on it on its face. I think it's this one right here Yeah, here it is IGN Nordic has one and that's so that's the the the one in the image again I can't show you guys. I need to get a new capture card so I can show you guys this stuff, but But yeah, so it's definitely not a wolf but it's uh I mean, maybe that maybe that thing was in fantastic beast. I'm not sure I have to go back and rewatch those movies to know for sure It's not an owl either. No, no, no, it's a it's a beast that has four legs. It runs on the ground Um, oh, I said that beast that looks like a horse No, it does It just doesn't look like a horse the wings and let no Like an eagle no No, no, absolutely. Absolutely not this thing is um There's multiple screenshots of it. It's something you fight It attacks you on the ground from the forest It's got giant horns. It's got like four elephant trunk things coming off it Anyways, yeah No, I'm just I just have a question for mike though when he's gonna when he's gonna change his uh header on his on his youtube channel What Mike odyssey if there's no news I make the news Nice tagline underneath your underneath your uh banner header there Well, that's what that's what you call news with oomph There you go The oomph part yeah, yeah, so I want to present the counter arguments out there for a system next year. Um, just so we're fair Um reasons that we might not get hardware example, uh, the switches projected to sell 19 million this fiscal year That would be a peak year for pretty much any system ever Usually you don't release a new system right after a peak year But not a peak year for switch. So take that for what it is Also, nintendo traditionally melts the hell out of all their successful systems until nobody wants to buy them anymore Which would say yep another two three years of what we got But the thing about milking That's also why nintendo has done things like new 3ds and dsi. So we've still gotten upgraded systems. So Melking it won't necessarily preclude a switch pro If that makes sense Depends on how many more years people think switch has So The same thing until I'm milking it will be just releasing another switch just a little stronger a little more powerful switch still switch Hope it's a lot more powerful. Uh, that being said What do you guys think do you guys think we're getting new Nintendo hardware more powerful hardware next gen or otherwise next year like legit I mean so far every two years we've been getting something upgrade. So Uh, next year will be the next two years, right? Am I right or am I incorrect? Well switch old leg came out 2020 Yeah, end of 2020 like that. Yeah, but I think switch light came out 2019 wait 27 20 20 20 19 19 Yeah, so the switch old led release day was last year october 2019 September 19. Okay for the light. So it's 2019. So then 2021 Uh, so then 2023, but it would also be more towards the end of the year based on yeah current time. Yeah um So you guys think it's actually think it's gonna happen or But But there are games aligned that would benefit from an earlier release You know Since we do have a switch do since we do have an announcement date for Howard's legacy already, you know for for july july Yes, july 25th july 25th, you know for july so I would say anytime before that before that also Gollum's been infant on an infinite delay for switch as well. No idea when that's coming um So other games We haven't even seen anything I believe that a game exists when we see I I I wouldn't be surprised. I don't want to you know what no, I don't want to piss people off We're gonna leave it alone I was gonna say I won't be surprised the game's canceled and I was gonna be going to my reasons for that But I'm gonna leave that alone Metrofront 4 still a thing. Oh, it's coming 2030 2030 That's fourth different developer um So, yeah, look, I don't know if we're gonna get a new device I've been on the train of getting a new device like the last two years. I kind of felt like it made sense Also, I there was the pandemic and I know the pandemic Really messed things up, especially in manufacturing. It messed things up sales wise wouldn't be a great time To drop new harbor sales wise was a fervor for it, man Everyone wanted to buy stuff graphics and brand new graphics cards thousand dollar post graphics cards are selling out They can't keep them on store shelves ps5 is 500 can't keep on store shelves It was a great time for hardware manufacturers to release it Not a good time for making hardware Uh and switch benefited from it. Absolutely 28 million 25 million You know 19 million this year Incredible sales And switch was already doing well before that The thing is that Now we get to 2023 And I start to wonder, you know a mid-gen refresh and it made sense a year ago even early this year what it made sense Is it still makes sense? I guess only a mid-gen refresh to me only makes sense So if it's basically what a next generation system would have been they just don't call it next gen Because they still call it a switch something a switch 4k A switch whatever And because they still call it a switch For some reason nintendo is allergic to numbers And say in like switch 2 no we can't do that. Yeah. No If it has switch in its name, it's all the same family and that's just the way it's going to be So while this is basically a next generation 2 3x leap from the current switch too bad We're not calling it next generation So suck it. Yeah, I don't think it's gonna be next gen. I think it's gonna be just an upgraded switch Because nintendo nintendo talk makes a good point said the zelda's special edition It could be a zelda special edition then 2024 we could get an announcement for the next gen console I mean if it's just a zelda special edition, that's not a new system. That's just that's just what they do That's just an uh, that's just another another old idea. That's like that wouldn't be new hardware. So like I wouldn't even count I don't nintendo can add what say it's a new skew, but it doesn't It's just it's just a painted switch all that I mean granted I want one but also Kind of would rather it be new hardware Uh, I think I think there's a lot of hope. I think what people want Is new hardware. I think there's a lot of people that have the hopes and dreams tied to tears of the kingdom Is gonna have new hardware Not that by the way, not that tears of the kingdom won't be on the current switch I don't even think that's a remote. It's gonna be on the current switch um But that people Want to play that game At full 1080p 1440p or some sort of up res 4k And they want the idea that it would be a locked 30 fps. If not 60 And in addition to having more particle effects and more crazy like what could what could A breath of the wild game be with more power We want to see that even though we've technically never seen A breath of the wild game actually made for the switches hardware. It's never happened Breath of the wild was made for we you it was never actually made for switch so I think there's a lot of people that just want to see What that game could be and not have to have it come out now for current switch Knowing all right. It's gonna be another five six years before we get the next big Zelda game And the new hardware and by then we could be in the latter half of that hardware cycle So are we talking about that game being for new hardware? So I think there's a lot of fear people also might have that if this is just for the current switch And you're a big Zelda person I mean the next time you get a major Zelda game That's you know a 3d major Zelda game. It could be at the end of the next generation Which then makes you think that you might have to wait longer. So I I think there's some fear with that But I I think people just want this game to be the best it can be and I don't think they think the best It can be is on switch But I think also Nintendo is very good at developing for their own hardware. I'm not talking about game freak I'm talking about Nintendo. You know, I mean Who else can make breath of the wild run on the Wii U? You know, if you give it to somebody else put it something else's hands They're not gonna do as good of a job as Nintendo is developing for their specific hardware. They're they're good at that So, yeah, I can can breath of the wild too Here's the kingdom run on the switch as it is now. I think it can it's just it just it's just It all has to do with with what they're willing to sacrifice in order to make it run You know, because we've seen breath of the wild right now in 4k You know on on running on these emulators with all the Shading and all the all the resolution. Yeah, the tray racing and everything all that added to it and it looks Stunning that means that that Nintendo is sacrificing all of that To make it run the way it is now So I think it depends on what they're willing to sacrifice But Nintendo is you know, Nintendo as as as They as when it comes to their first party games, I feel they've done a pretty good job Making switch games run on on the current console now the question is Will third party developers have enough patience because They want to they have let's say they have a vision of a story They want to tell and they have a vision of a game They want to develop and they want it to look this way and to run this way And are they going to have enough patience with Nintendo waiting for Nintendo to They they do decide to go to 2024 or 2025 Or they just bypass Nintendo switch all together Like I I I feel like a lot of developers have been doing You know or give us a cloud version, which is That's what that's what's been happening. Uh, I mean, so You know, I I feel like the the the the the most The thing that makes the most sense is Nintendo getting an upgraded switch So that they can extend the life of the switch and give give a time before they actually go to the next Gen console, which will be announced in 2024 to be released in 2025 Make a good point Mm-hmm. Yeah, yeah with a barric I I've been on the Both the I wanted and needed so train, um, so I mean earlier a new system so I can give my sister mine. Yeah pretty much. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, so that's kind of where I'm I think it's gonna happen I Won't surprise me either way to be completely honest. I'm hoping it happens. Let's say it's let's say someone hands you $500 it's not money you have so we're not risking our own money. Okay, but One way or another You will triple that money and you get to keep it You gotta get the bet correct. Is it coming next year or not? Oh Yeah, that's the thing. Oh, I wanted to I think it could I'm okay I know let's say there's something actually on the line to grant it for you technically It's not your money. But yeah, you get the benefit if you nail it. Yeah I'm gonna say You hear it if someone would just give him the money to lay it down on you Damn straight. I'm surprised. There's not a vegas line for this right now, right? Honestly, you bet on everything. All right What's the next Nintendo hardware comment? All right line 2023 What's the over-under on it? That's the over-under. So So the question is next generation or mid-gen refresh I would bet 500 bucks for mid-gen refresh next year Not next generation. I think it's a mid-gen refresh I think it's Nintendo still in the bubble of weirdness. We are still in the middle of the cycle of the They haven't they haven't said that in over a year actually It's been all yeah, but last time they said they were in the they were in the middle. So I'm guessing one year later They they've just just over the middle, you know, we still have a good pair to go But I you know I don't think that they're gonna abandon kind of this. I hope anyways that they don't like abandon the switch concept I mean, it's Nintendo. So you never Really fully know what they're gonna do um But I really hope they don't You know abandon the switch concept. I I think it's a phenomenal idea um And it's it's one of those things that again, we've all talked about how We can uh, we'd like to kind of almost see it be treated almost like a phone Where you get your upgrades every in not necessarily every year like a phone But maybe every other year every three years you get an upgraded version of Said switch with maybe a little bit new features a little bit new design a little bit new, you know this and that um So, you know, whether it's whether they call it a you know a new the next gen of switch Or just a mid gen refresh To a certain extent if they go that route it that's more semantics then but Yeah, I I you know, I'm kind of hoping that they kind of go And keep this trend going with the switch You know line And keep that going for the next, you know Until they come up with another really really crazy great inventive idea Sorry, I got this weird look on my face because just got the email the school is canceled tomorrow. No fun Oh man, have fun. Um, I mean it was canceled today where I still got stuff done credit to big shout out to Julia Stepping up today, and she actually had a good time with the kids for once But but two days in a row. Yeah, that's a bit that's a bit rough Especially since our oldest has a lot of homework to do That she's procrastinating um, but it's Damn it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah That's all I can say is damn it I was I was I know the bad weather is here guys like There's a huge storm by the way It's affecting a lot of us in the u.s. In different ways other places are getting tornadoes and tons Right, I just found out today. Like this is you there's a storm coming through. I'm like what it's sunny and beautiful today Yeah, it's a massive It like literally spans like the entire u.s. North to south and it's just going across So it goes cooler up here. It's it's it's sleet and snow and stuff Uh, we're it's rain and tornadoes down south. Yeah, so Yeah, I know everybody be safe out there. You know big make sure you're safe. Yeah, I know for sure. Absolutely. Yeah You know, so Nate you you too generic families be safe because You never know when something's gonna happen because yeah, man Well, I was being crazy. No for sure. But um, but just uh, just uh, just add just add a little a little small No on top of what say um I think they're gonna keep what we're talking. Um next gen I feel like next gen will be 2024 2025. We're talking mid mid gen refresh With a little with a boost a little a little A little up to the switch. We'll call the nintendo switch off. Anyway, you know a little you know more extra I think they will keep the same form factor same form factor for the controllers, but They could Have a nintendo switch. Let's say they call the pro nintendo switch pro edition controller I mean, that's what it's already called the pro controller. They probably wouldn't use pro for the controller And nintendo pro edition controller. No nintendo. That's pro Oh god, are we going back to the we we you naming? I thought that's just not just no, please No, we know who are we you but i'm saying like uh the you know have a controller That's basically come they come with that version of the switch. Just set it apart. You know what I mean? Yeah The nintendo switch controller with the regular controllers I'm just gonna say this if we're getting new harbor next year. It's pseudo next gen Yeah, I don't see any reason to release a quote unquote mid gen refresh and then replace it a year later Makes no right. No Even two years later makes no sense We've had the same switch hardware since 2017 to release a mid gen refresh and then replace it into it It just doesn't like even ps4 pro came out like two years in and then sat around for four Like it just doesn't make sense to me. I kind of feel like like a little tiny little upgrade That would just be running the current switch Chip at stock which people overclock overclock it all the time when they hack their switches That would be a minor upgrade. Is it one that makes a little bit of a difference? Sure Is it something most people are going to give a shit about? No Not at this point. I think people want new and I feel like They might not call it a next generation system It might just be another system in the family of switch systems But it's gonna I think it's going to be a significant hardware upgrade Okay, like like double the ram Like an actual modern cpu potentially using Uh tensor cores and stuff like that for dlss all of that would be massive upgrades That is not your typical And here by the way When I say not your typical mid-gen refresh the xbox series x and the playstation 4 pro were massive upgrades over the ps4 and xbox 1 So let's not pretend that mid-gen refresh is just always a minor bump for nintendo It always has been the new 3ds was just a little bit more now that a little bit more made a difference But it was still just a little bit more I want to quantify this A little bit more that we could notice The three the new 3ds was almost twice as powerful as the original 3ds People don't actually realize how big of a bump it was Because the 3ds hardware were so weak anyways that even though it was double that it still didn't really feel like It still didn't really feel like a huge boost That's just how we are Nintendo loves running a weak hardware man weak hardware maximum profits. That's yeah, so So but like that's why and and that could actually be to a credit somebody's credit Oh, just be a minor bump because weak hardware maximum profits But I also go like yeah, but if they release something more powerful They can ride that train for another four years before they gotta worry about anything Anything and they could have things like you know, when you you have hardware legacy drop and it's native and it looks Pretty damn close to what it looks like on xbox series s People be pretty happy about that And so you ride that train you get your call of duties Well, that's you get your I don't know last more than 20 minutes Your your your doom eternal x edition what I have no idea if we're ever gonna get another doom game Still That's my opinion I again, I don't know if new harbors coming at all next year. I mean I agree Yeah, I Actually agree with what you're saying. I think that you know, it could be a more powerful switch Extra more powerful I think they might change the controls a little bit But still make it compatible. It was to what we have now I think it'll use the same rail system. So you could still use real ones Exactly. So, you know change the control a little bit, but still make it the form factor compatible what we have now Um, I see someone saying they need to triple the ramp. That's never gonna happen. They're the next year It's not going to be 12 gigs. It's not gonna happen I know 12 gigs. Well, you know, you're getting close to ps5. It's it's a mobile device We don't need that much for just gaming. We don't we don't Yes, developers would love to have it. Absolutely. They the more they will always want more ramp As I was going to have to connect can I confess something really quick? This is this is going to make this is going to probably going to be bad for Should I say I don't I don't want to I don't want I don't want to spread bad information But I mean there's only a hundred there's only 125 people watching But um Something happened with my steam deck I was going to ask you about your steam deck content, but I don't want to put you on the Yeah, yeah, the reason why I've been doing steam deck content because you were all gung-ho about it And then you mentioned something to me about selling or I'm like, you know what I'm going to leave this alone because I always say I'm going to make content that never happens to so Okay, so I yeah, I still I still have the steam deck. It's still there. It functions well but but I was downloading Downloading uh, what's that game that lizard game that it's a platformer Um, yuka leili yuka leili, whatever. Oh, I was downloading that game, right? Download it pretty quick I played it for two minutes Literally two minutes because it's one of those tests to see how it how it played how it looked and I noticed That the controllers were getting a little hot That that like the the this part this part in this part here, though, you know, the way you look at the edges It was getting a little warm. Like, okay, this is it's kind of weird. I'm only playing. I literally been playing for two minutes Right, so so I'm gonna put it down and then I went I go and grab it from here And I burnt my hand literally burnt my hand to a point where It's healed now, but there was a little bubble here like uh, when you actually get little blisters Yeah, like a little blister damn Yeah, I can burn burnt burnt my hand. I I told the steam that people a Remember I told you mess with my my my thing was getting hot. Oh, no Just go ahead and churned out turn go ahead and put it at the lowest resolution Go ahead and put it at the lowest frame rate go ahead and I'm like I shouldn't need to do that I'll just go get Go get one of the little Little games with the little, you know From back in the 80s. I'm like, how am I I got a steam deck I just download literally Yokel a legally then I'm not ever Graph graphically high consuming games. Oh, I don't know. I'm like, I I want to I just want to play it Okay, go ahead and lower the settings to the to below 15 frame rates per second. Go ahead and lower this I'm like Okay, so I went and lowered everything it looked pretty bad Still was getting hot and when I try to reach again Uh, it was it was even hotter. It was just completely hot like to a point Did was the fan working? I literally, huh? Was the fan working? The fan was like You could hear it. You can literally Because if the fans aren't working, then that obviously affects a lot of things. Okay. Okay. Yeah, I mean you can literally literally hear the fan like this I could I could fall asleep with it. You know, there's a little white noise. That's how loud it was Does it seem to blow the heat out the top? Like the switch it it has the vents on the top on the top. Yes, it blows out the top And then and then I don't remember the first time I was I was like playing you could feel like the air coming out the hot air Sure. Sure. Yeah There was there was a point where you couldn't even put your hand there because the hot air was so hot And I went ahead and just grabbed it thinking that it was okay You know, and it just got I burnt my hand and and I told the steam that people about it I'm like, look, hey, I I I literally burnt my hand. I sent a picture of My hand. I didn't hear anything back from them So all I wanted to do was get a get a replacement because it's that one probably that one probably was faulty But then I get I'm like, you know what it actually makes a good point You want you're trying to put too much power into a mobile little package that you're going to get that You know things like this Are are could happen when you try to put too much power into a mobile little package like that one You know, I mean as long as you do it the right way, there's there are ways of The way that was done in this situation unless I have a faulty console which I've been trying to actually Get replaced for the past one. Did I get it? About three weeks after I got it Yeah Huh, and uh, you know, that's why I'm like, man, that that has got me very skeptical about about putting too much hardware when it comes to To the power that it consumes, you know In in a mobile setting, you know what I mean? So unless they go with an arm chip like a really good arm chip that is you know Consumes less power heats up less so then I don't see any Fat operated system running well I Look look I have a counter to all this Um, and honestly, this just makes valve look bad. I don't want to I don't like down talking companies unless they're just saying stupid stuff And it sounds like we could maybe with the way the customer's support was handled That was a little stupid You should never have to worry about a device burning you with your hand Oh, right, and then your it shouldn't happen. It shouldn't happen. It shouldn't be you shouldn't There's actually legal requirements for heat Yeah, um with handheld devices and for it to burn you it's exceeding the legal requirement for sure Well, and to have their solution be lower your frame rate and lower your resolution lower your setting so it runs cooler Make your thing a complete piece of shit To to make it not burn you. Okay. Got it. Thank you. Yeah, they're saying they're saying lower the setting so it runs cooler I understand what they're doing But I also go but your device shouldn't be capable of running like this unless I mod if a user modification is not That's different. Right. I didn't modify it. This is just how it runs And yeah, so one it could be a obviously a faulty a faulty steam deck. I mean, that's a that's obviously possible um, but to your point Uh, and I I looked this up because I wanted to confront because I thought I saw this news earlier this year I just didn't really care because this happens all the time because it's the way technology goes um, the iphone 14 Is in benchmarks beating out the steam decks gpu and cpu performance Meaning the iphone 14 Is probably slightly more powerful than a steam deck and yet it's a lot slimmer and it's held in your hand My whole point of mentioning this isn't to be like, oh my gosh, you're gonna play more intensive games on No, no, no for sustained loads and long periods of time steam decks You'll be able to play your game on like if you played a full-on pc game on your phone at at normal settings Your phone might be dead in like a half hour. Okay, like obviously these are like the most ideal Just pushing things to the max. What can it do? The thing the reason I bring this up is Because phones are way more powerful than switch as well. They have been for a long time Is a lot of it's just about the engineering Um Valve doesn't have a lot of experience in this space They've never actually made a home console the only other harbor They've actually made because they didn't make the steam deck boxes. Those were other companies They made the operating system or the controller and the controller failed and sold the crap and they stopped making it I'm not maybe they didn't stop me. Maybe they still sell them. I don't know But I know they didn't do very well. They don't have a lot of experience in in engineering and hardware manufacturing So quality control could be a problem But beyond that when we're already seeing phones match and beat benchmarks of steam deck And those never get too hot to hold Why don't they get too hot to hold? Because this software optimization obviously will prevent it For starters, they have they're keeping track of the temps if the temps reach a certain point Nope, we're gonna throttle it. We're not telling the user to throttle it We're gonna throttle it so they don't get hurt And they offer better cooling solutions all of that without a fan Yeah, look here's an iphone Here's a samsung No fans And some that do like some of their tablets that do barely even noticeable the fans there The point is It's the engineering Nintendo would never release a device that's gonna do that Not because of how much power is in it because they engineer the cooling correctly. They'd be using vapor chambers like all the current phones do Vapor chamber cooling does believe it or not make a difference in how the heat is dissipated so there's a lot of ways that Basically a steam deck is set up like a traditional computer. It's got heat pipes It has a fin stack and it has a fan blowing through it which by the way That's all the switch does it right now But the switch is a much lower power device But that's exactly how they're trying to cool a steam deck And it's not for the amount of power packed in there There's not enough cooling in the steam deck probably for the power that it packs And I say this because The steam deck was as powerful as certain gaming laptops when it came out and those gaming laptops had heat sinks that were spread You know 10 inches wide And three inches deep and they're all over you'll feel the heat coming off the back of your inside of your laptop It's like crazy sometimes too hot or it's uncomfortable to put on your lap And they had less cooling than that in the steam deck So it was one of those to me situations of this is just not manufactured correctly Engineered correctly Maybe it's even the wrong chips. Yes, obviously we're talking about computer phones are using different chips Guess what the switch uses Oh a mobile processor in arm Oh They're going to be using the new mobile gpu from invidia meant for in your hand Oh Maybe amd didn't design their horizon And zen 2 architecture to be held in your hand I mean, yeah So if you're gonna and I understand it was custom made for them It can be custom made for them all they want That doesn't mean the engineering around the whole device is like maybe it should be thicker Maybe there needs to be a bigger fan. Maybe there needs to be a lot more You know, you know a lot more heat pipes and fin stacks in there Um, or start looking at the way mobile phones take care of the heat Start vapor chamber cooling. They don't have crap loads, you know, like I'm sitting here looking at my phone It's not like my phone events all over it It doesn't You'll feel a little warmth on the back usually right around the middle where the main parts are Sometimes you feel a little bit of the warmth on your screen because they're dissipating the heat sometimes through the screen as well and Yeah And they somehow do it and are more powerful. So my my point is that I just don't think If there's a heat problem with steam deck and by the way guys I don't have experience with it and a lot of you have steam deck and probably haven't had any problems But for Mike's specific situation Yeah, he could he could have a lemon. He could have a lemon Yeah, but for that situation I don't think it's a problem. You could have you you could put a lot more hell of a lot more power in in a handheld phone factor because I have it right here I have a lot more power in my handheld phone factor right here and it's smaller than switch So I don't I'm not going to buy the You know, it can't be too far. Yeah, obviously you're not packing desktop power in I kind of feel like they tried to do that with steam deck by using laptop components That are meant for more cooling. I know it's custom But they are laptop components that are customized for them And I'm just not so sure That that's the same as having hardware that's intended To be held like arm cpus are intended for handheld devices So is that is one way over another cheaper to produce? um their cheaper to produce is Is Comes down to the nanometers. So how many wafers they can make per run the yield rate on the on the wafers And obviously, you know the cost of the components and all that but it's usually negligible between generations because they just So it's usually that's why like they say smaller nanometer It's because they can they get excited because they can make more more wafers per run and obviously less power draw Uh, usually when it's smaller you need less power to Because the run basically because all the electronics are closer together because it's smaller You don't need as much electricity to get the signals to go through. Um, that's basically the Very very very layman's physics way of how that all works It's actually a hell of a lot more complex. So but yeah, um It basically the cheapness comes down to how many fabs do they have making it And how many can they make per run? Like right now the nintendo switch is using still using the slightly modified tegra x1 That got rid of the easy, um pin crossing hack to get to the the boot menu. So That is something right now that literally only the switch is using so There used to be a lot more manufacturing lines for it. There's a lot less of them now Since nvidia is no longer using it in any other products, which means it's probably more expensive to make what they're making now than to make something new Which actually then means you to more towards there's probably going to be a new Hardware change at some point in time here in the near future because they're going to want to get away from the more expensive chip And they can make more per run and a lot of like believe it or not as an example nvidia announced Hey, we're done making 12 nanometer Chips except except for nintendo Right. Okay. So when you when you when you when you address, uh, when you talk about wafers Are you talking about the chocolate ones or the vanilla vanilla wafers? Yes No, that's just what that's just what they call runs of a of a motherboard And then when you talk about oh, that would make sense Yeah, the leader's blue. Yeah Yeah, no It's a tech term for for a run of a of a board of a silicon board that has No, yeah, I'm basically kind of I'm making it more easier to digest for the for the chat You mean you're just digesting Wafers yourself We're talking about you know, the chocolate wafers sugar-free wafers And the vanilla wafers Any other wafer? Um, Ray Spence mentions that nintendo has been stopped by the resources. Uh, that was actually addressed by chintura furicaba basically saying that um, there was a projected Because we're in a recession or entering one I guess technically can't be called one unless it's 18 straight months But whatever nintendo sort of projected that there was going to be A recession which means prices go up. So they just bought a crap load at a certain price um Before that before that hit that's what nintendo is claiming But you could do whatever you want with it. These are raw materials by the way when they say resources There wasn't like oh, we just bought a bunch of chips. No, no, no, no They bought the metals the silicon all like all the all the stuff you need to make the stuff Raw chicken raw materials basically they bought they stop out a bunch of raw materials That can be used to make any sort of thing. It doesn't have to be the current it can be whatever you know Polyurethane and whatever else are you using? I could hear um, I could just guys here the guy saying it's raw It's wrong. Think about it didn't run now. It's raw And and the story it's not like we have any idea how much they stockpiled right like they could already be out of it We have no idea how much that what's the stockpile? Is it a year supply? Is it two months like Right, you know, it's not like we have any exact numbers on it because we don't really know where all that stuff could ship to Um, we know nintendo had new factories opened up with samsung um new lines opened up with them, but they also have um a deal with them for the OLED panels, so Hmm, you know, I don't know and all I know is that uh Samsung likes to make things really tiny and so does nvidia right now and Nintendo's like one of the few devices using really really massive chips Like there's another right. Oh, oh guys guys. I just saw the the 96 core epic. Okay Okay, well that's a server CPU with 96 cores. Yeah, it's like this big and you see on there There's actually four because they use infinity fabric. There's actually four separate chips combined to make that Yeah, that welcome to servers and welcome to the way that amd is doing things Yeah You know, I'm just saying they're like that's not That's That's a combined you can see you can literally see on it the four things like it's a combined thing I mean, it's still all small and retrospect to the uh, room If they had to make that I I saw the pin count on it today. It's insane if they had to make that in a Let's say an old 20 nanometer process it would be it would be like bigger than my head How big it would have to be to do what that's the cpu does so yes It is relatively small for what is happening on that chip Um, but that's but that's kind of the point The mate's head. Yes picture that picture impossible No, no bigger than my egos impossible There you go Oh, there it is. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. That's the wrong one Yeah That's right You mic are you are you trying to say I have a big ego? You know what? Yeah No, no, no, I wasn't even thinking about ego. I was just thinking about head like because our heads are huge right now on screen. They're very huge on on Oh, Jesus, did you just know like robot voice me for like two seconds I feel like our heads get bigger every every podcast. I was like, so we'll be like Hey, look at the three talking heads. Hey, look, it's the nose podcast. It's the three amigos Um, all right The three of you do have enormous skills. Well, also we're like really blown up. Yeah, but yeah, I got I got a pretty big head Yeah, I just do I got Here's what is Honestly, you stood next to me. You still think I'm tiny as Al so That's all right Um Eric is five nine, right? Yep Nate is five five. Yep About five six or five four You'll see for a moment. Yeah five five Okay, might be five four and seven eights at this point. I have no idea. I feel like I've shrunk. Yeah, right I'm closer to I'm closer to to to to Eric I'm aware you both will be giants next to me Yeah, you know what's funny when we go to e3 if we walk in the building together people I think you're my security Make sure I walk right in the middle make sure I walk right in the middle and that you guys have some earpieces on yeah Yeah, yeah Like uh, and you have to put your hand like in your shirt. So I think you're Napoleon Just careful so you don't get tackled because I think you have something else Oh, if there's someone doing a caricature of me, I got to remind them to make me extra tall Yeah, like Napoleon was trying to do in all his art. No, no, no I don't know when I went when you put me on that horse you make it look like I'm at the size of the horse Um No, you're just the size of the uh Horse uh my history class was probably wrong on that one. I have no idea. Yeah, um We so we have one more topic quick Uh, it's kind of I kind of made it a combo top. I added my own little thing there just because I wanted it to Uh, mention this briefly That camia Wants bayonetta to go crazy Apparently they got like internal plans for up to nine bayonetta games And they want to do a crapload of spin-offs Which we shouldn't buy in the past. We already know he sort of basically said bayonetta force happening. Um, but In the recent interview where he revealed, oh, we have like nine plan and all these spin-offs He hasn't pitched it yet. So it's not actually happening yet But he's getting ready to pitch bayonetta for to nintendo basically But he's got lots of plans for bayonetta and he's hoping that nintendo is going to keep funding it so that he can keep doing it That's basically the gist of it. So if you enjoy bayonetta Camilla's going to push for it and as long as nintendo says yes We're going to get a hell of a lot more bayonetta in the future. So yay I think they will I think they will that's basically yeah, I don't know what the really is to discuss Do you guys like bayonetta? I've never pointed but The last two, but I played the third one and I actually enjoyed it You mean the first two? So I'm like the last two, but I played the latest game. Yeah. Yeah, I haven't played the last two My mental gymnastics are failing me um, yeah, okay, so so This other topic Um, just wanted to mention that because it's like a piece of news. I didn't cover so I'm I'm okay with it Bring on bring on bring on bayonetta. I'm good with it. But I haven't I If you're gonna put Close-up shot of ass I hear bingo card for for nintendo directs You want to hear bayonetta news? This announcement is great for that great for that We had a couple years and start putting it on that bingo card because we're gonna get some close I heard they were they were working on a brand new type of angel mode um that the users can have the option to whether um use Or not use but this type of angel mode It's uh, it's it has no work On their part on developer part. It has to do With you so angel mode in this way the way you turn it on is um You close your eyes Ah There we go, there. I was wondering where this was going. They're just Yeah, there we go Thank you. Thank you. That was a good one. That was a good one Hey, I appreciate um All right, so the last time I actually was about super nintendo world in hollywood Gets its grand gets its grand opening date. What day is it? Let's open my view. It's uh, uh, february 17th 2023 Oh nice in hollywood studios Well, I mean I was in florida Universal studios hollywood Yes, and I have been asked by several people behind the scenes Nate, are you going to go out to the grand opening? No, no It's expensive to go out there And no, I am going Mike's going there you go But the thing is i'm going to go i'm going to try to go on the 18th I'm sorry guys if I'm kind of running my eyes a lot, you know, it's uh that time but um I'm gonna go it's on the 17th. I'm gonna try to get late get there on a on a flight 17 early um do the grand opening Um get some footage. I'm not I'm not gonna go as a tourist. I'm gonna go as a journalist basically So do the seven do the the cover the the park um get some footage and um You know just kind of learn the park get as much as as I can I have a contact That once I get there they told me that just to let them know when when where they when we land um And then I'm coming back on the very next day. So it's gonna be it's gonna be a video more like a video Trip like a you know a business trip vlog rather than Yeah, rather than just uh mike odyssey for coverage of the opening Yeah, that's why I I think maybe if you we can get a group going just like a one like a day thing, you know Yeah, I won't happen We'll get a bnb with a couple rooms Go the one day next day I'm I don't know if you've heard mike. I'm a full-time youtuber So if I've ever lived paycheck to paycheck in my life, it's right now. It's not happening I'm not gonna be able to fly out there and back even if I had free room and board free food free tickets It wouldn't matter just getting out there and back's too expensive. So yeah Yeah, I'm gonna Eric's like what I might go But you gotta send them with some equipment So guys that so for a day if you see me on a webcam talking into a usb microphone Because I sent all everything with Eric February what was it February 17th? Well 18th. I think is what he said. He's you're flying out the You're flying out the 17th or you're flying out the 18th like This mike There we go. Are you flying out the 17th or 18th? I'm planning on this. I'm flying out the 17 and five o'clock in the morning. And then you're returning the 18th Returning the 18th. Yeah, okay Let's just About going out guys. I ain't going Eric doesn't have three kids He doesn't he doesn't have the kind of bills. I got rolling around here Very close up. I it's gonna be like my my crew I'll steal it from them in the prime. There you go. There you go So again, check out my goddess channel. Eric might even make an appearance. Yeah So, um, what I'm gonna try to do this is try try try I I really want to go to the ground opening as a as a journalist just because Um, I just I sent an email out there, you know, I I sent To to to press at universal they got back to me, you know Um, and they are willing to help to to allow me to go in So, um and and do like a press thing like as press, right? I would still have to pay for the ticket But they will have to they would give me like a press tour so that I have somebody with me And they can answer any questions that I have on the rides on on on different things about the park Little, you know, acne adults here and there for for press purposes for the for the website and for for the video itself Um, so what I'm gonna try to do Is I haven't announced it yet, but I'm gonna try to see if I can do Uh, uh, just a mini fundraiser On the channel for that trip. So basically like a video to make the video basically, you know So it's gonna be like a fundraiser to make that video so that I can be there On on opening day on super nintendo world, hollywood florida and just do a really really good video To you know to publish it, you know, and I maybe I wouldn't once i'm there I can get That you can use on your on your channel, you know to cover it It's not terrible. I can if if you're not going I can also make a clip Say Mike, honestly reporting for nintendo prime here at super nintendo world Yeah, we're here Blur pretty blur pretty blurping and basically that's kind of You know, that's how it goes, but I'm gonna try to see if we can get if we can get there, but uh, you know, that's uh Those are the plans, you know, you got to reach for the for the stars There's one one and eight eight eight eighteen p.m. On the 17th we'd fly in late late at night For like three hundred and three dollars It's not terrible It's not bad. No, I mean otherwise normal normal flights are 548, which is still not terrible, but No, if I do If I do any coverage, it'll be an extra day at e3 that I go Yeah, right No, I'm already going to be down there. No 100. Yeah, all right So if I did any coverage it'd be in a vlog or something for e3. No, absolutely. Yeah I know Paul Gale's got massive plans for when stuff opens up. I think we've all been invited Unfortunately As I said, unfortunately an invite doesn't Here's the thing I say I'm saying this guys And if nintendo puts me on a short list to go out and play through the kingdom early I'm flying to revin washington playing through the kingdom early like There are certain things that to me are worth the money a theme park Then I am excited for To me it is because I I love theme parks. It's just not I love theme parks I just don't love what it costs to be at a theme park and what it cost to travel to the theme parks Maybe because I live in florida. I live in orlando. Yeah. Yeah orlando. You suck. You're by everything basically That's what I'm saying that because it's at this point. I've been here over 20 years And it's within our blood already theme parks is in our blood. So we celebrate everything I go to the celebrations with Yeah, or well, you know what? Kind of culture thing. I live in the middle of it's not open nine months a year But we have the world right we have the world's largest outdoor water park somehow in an area where we can only use it for three months right But we literally have the world's largest water park america's america's largest outdoor water park In a place where it can only run for three months. It used to be the world's but I mean I beg to differ. I think we have the biggest water park in the world is called a beach I mean there is that we have beaches The entire the the one side of wisconsin is almost entirely a beach Three quarters of florida's a fucking beach and hey we have technically you can argue Almost the entire almost all of the outside of wisconsin's a beach because you can have beaches on a river No Yeah, there's beaches on a river The ocean can you get to can you get to can you get to the hawaii from your river? Yeah, technically actually yes. Yes, you can Our river rungs right to the ocean. Yeah technically, yeah Yeah, if you follow it through like We're the Mississippi river that goes on the gulf goes on the gulf we can get we can get anywhere Which can then go to yeah, I could get in my own boat. Yep and get to hawaii I might die eventually and I might die because it probably won't be an ocean faring boat But I will I will attempt in a little pop pop pop pontoon. Yeah I have to have I have to add like a little laughter button Yeah, I have you know, I have the stock I can also You know people can say well, you know Nate If you're just going to rent a boat that might be cheaper than a plane And then you take a week-long boat trip to go down the river around the through the panda with the male Back up. Yeah back up. I mean I mean you could take that you could take the really long way drive over to lake superior Go through the st. Lawrence seaway go up to the atlantic and then go all the way around I actually think the cheapest way to get there's a train Pretty sure you can train out to cali That's probably sure I'm pretty sure you can and I know it's like dirt cheap to take a train But what time what time though because I don't I don't I don't even know I don't you get there I think you get there in less than a day, but I don't remember Train to california I don't know. I don't think we have a speed train to get there But I mean maybe there's one you can transfer to along the way. I have no idea Yeah, Amtrak goes to california Okay That's actually really What Hold on I know people have taken train trains to go on longer trips because it was cheap. So what what is it? um, if I No, no, actually it's it's the same as that one flight Amtrak's about 241 Is that round trip or just one way? Uh, you know, I'm not sure Um That might just be one way I'll say a little california Last round trip I mean, I see trains I see trains to la for five dollars on kayak From minneapolis. All right, if uh, if it gets to I need to leave on it. All right, dude I'm making sure that's real Five dollars sounds a little a little insane From minneapolis, um 2000 what what what the heck? Oh, I might want to get the correct dates Yeah, obviously That's not the right date. Hold on Yeah, five dollars that let's you know, they're really in trouble Do I want to ride a five dollar train? I'm not so sure that Five dollar treat is one of those uh carts that you have to manually pump up and down I was pushing it Well, I want a bus cost you could bust the country could I would take multiple days, but uh, yeah, no, I would not do it No, I would not do a bus. Well the trains aren't any more comfortable except you're just not on it as long Yeah Whole bus accident thing and buses and going on that long. No, I'd much rather do a train Listen to this if I take a train from Orlando to to los angeles It'll take me 93 hours In 24 minutes to get there 93 hours In 24 minutes, I will leave I would leave On the 15th And I will get there the day after It opens what you would have to leave earlier Yeah, so I would have to On one thing to get there on a Friday, so that's worse than flying Heck What a shocker. It's worse than flying Spend the spend the week in the train. All right guys. I need to lose weight anyways. I'm walk it Oh, I'm starting now At the current pace I'm going I better start now. Yeah I wonder how far I'd make it I don't even know if I'd make it to minnesota before I gave up Yeah, I get to the end of my street. All right. I'm done. I'm done guys. Sorry. I couldn't I couldn't make it I couldn't make it worth it. Um, no anyways guys. Yeah, obviously not uh, not gonna happen for me But hey, Mike's gonna go maybe eric decides to go join them. I have no idea. Eric's his old man. He can do what he wants Um, I'll just chill here and keep making videos. Uh, and It kind of starts because like it's a friday. So it's like a good day to open things, but We have to we have to answer a question a very important question Made by an intent talk on the chat If two youtubers are traveling at 3,000 miles by train to california at a speed of 65 miles per hour How long would Depends on how much money you If we're broke I mean a little over 46 hours technically Yeah, a little bit over 46 hours We're traveling at 65 miles. I mean, do you want the exact answer? 46.15384615384615 hours Yeah, but you're assuming though, you're assuming what no, no No, no, no, no, this is what I would do in questions like this came on math Two or try my three of them. I'm about trying to come at the speed of six How long would it take and I said is it non-stop? You never said non-stop Yeah So that so so I would give a non-stop answer And then I'd be like but your question doesn't clarify non-stop. So let's assume that there's pit stops gas refuels Etc. Etc. Etc. I have no idea If it's a mr. Beast video that they're gonna take forever Any across the nation There was a question like this in high school one of my math tests And I remember I forgot my calculator and I just didn't want to do the math So I just I just wrote down there was technically not enough information to correctly answer this question And the teacher marked it wrong, right? You got to watch over but teacher there isn't enough information to answer this question correctly No, you just do this and this okay. I understand what you're saying, but that's under conditions that are not stated in the question Yeah, that's very true. I did not get the full conditions of this trip to know. Is there weather? Is there snow? Is there rain? What season isn't that could affect things? Is there mass amounts of weather? Yeah, I'm saying that you did not provide. Are we going in the wind or against the wind? Yeah Which train company Because you say 65 some say 65, but they're only going 60 I know this from experience. So There is not enough information to correctly answer this question The answer you want is this you are correct For what you want under conditions you didn't specify Ergo, I stand by my statement. There is not enough information to correctly answer this Right, let's just say my grade dropped a whole letter Let me say teachers don't like to don't like to be proven a lot I'm sorry a lot of teachers don't like to be proven wrong or have like smart asses I'm like I I could be a smart as all you want I am the master of looking at the problem and going there's a lot of shit Around this problem that I can just skirt the line I I find my way out of a lot of things and my way out of this was There factually is not enough information here for me to correctly answer this question Technically, yes You didn't give me the the information I needed you gave me the information I needed to get the answer you want me to get right However to get to that answer includes making assumptions and I've been told my whole life assumptions making ass out of you and me Yep, I literally said that to him. That might have been the line that got me. Ah, yeah, probably That might have got me the letter. Good drop on a moment. I'm saying you're asking for yourself. You're just being a smart. I'm like Am I wrong? Tell me I'm wrong. Yeah I basically pulled the Sheldon Cooper from the uh, yeah the bank the no no not the big bang the young Sheldon Oh young Sheldon, okay, because he does the same shit when he when he said zero doesn't exist And he put up a very Logical is like of course zero exists and then he I don't want to get a good dive dude This is like a whole episode on so but he basically gave every every response to professors Every response the professors came up with the zero exists He said but can it but but how can that be if this is also true? Now this is true and then this is and like literally he did this whole board worth of math and he's like, holy shit Zero doesn't zero doesn't actually exist. Yeah, so how could we use it as a basis for all these math problems? But it's not even a real thing and it's it's nothing. Yeah, no, that's the whole point zero is nothing but If it's nothing then He just it was awesome It was awesome. Um, anyways All right, uh, we're gonna be wrapping things up here.
