 topic because we already talked a lot about it and no surprise big theme of the day but I'm gonna go back to it just to end the podcast because we obviously it's something we all care about even if we care about it in varying degrees Metroids back cool can we just back we just like reminisce in the fact that like it's truly back now that this isn't a dream it's happening two Metroid games are coming out sometime in the next however many years like we know they exist now it's not a pipe treat yet yeah like just my mind is still even as much as I make it Metroid right no Metroid I'm sorry I'm Metroid Prime the Metroid Samus Returns was like my least favorite game that was shown off by Nintendo it's still one of those things like I'm still in shock that like we're getting that and a Metroid Prime 4 that's happening it's not a Federation force it's not a hunters it's not like some side dish we're getting like legit Metroid games one for 3ds even if it's a remake and we're getting a whole brand new one in their most popular series of Metroid on switch like I was the person coming into you through that kept saying they're not gonna announce Metroid here's why and I laid out a bunch of the reasons that had to do with the fact that well it had to do with the fact that Metroid just hasn't been a popular series it's just never been their most popular game is like a bad selling Zelda game and when a bad selling Zelda game happens they just stop making that type of Zelda game so like Metroid is a franchise that's continued to exist and get new game after new game while other franchises that sold significantly better we're just left to left out the F-Zero until Metroid easily but they kill the franchise off it's done you only see it referenced in Smash Bros or like a track in Mario Kart you don't you're not gonna get a Nintendo Land on the Wii U name. Don't you dare forget that. Nintendo Land was good. Dude Nintendo Land was good. I enjoyed it. The Zelda one in particular I was a big fan of. Yeah the battle quests yeah all battle quests was great the F-Zero stuff the Pikmin. The Mario chase I enjoyed Mario it was a great party game. John chase me chase me yeah change the name on it. Mario. Yeah happens. It's a Nintendo for you. It's a series that I always wondered if it just was continued because it's Nintendo's primary franchise with a female lead and I hate saying that a female lead is why they continued it but I mean they had no other franchise with a female lead. I'm trying to think now do they even have it. I don't think that even a play for Nintendo honestly series. I don't think they even care about that. Well well if they only care about money the Metroid wouldn't even be here. I'm not saying it's not money either I think that they do I do think they know that their hardcore fans that have been with them since the NES days have been just clamoring for it and even if it's not gonna necessarily you know be the best-selling games that they're willing to try it again you know like Kid Icarus was a cult classic forever why would they bring that back it doesn't make any sense. That's fair. They never and never. That's what I'm saying they have game like like when you talk about you know like when you're talking about you know as an example like this is just for the hardcore fans I appreciate that stands but like the hardcore people then buy it they bought all these other games I'm not saying it I'm not saying it's because the hardcore is there that they're gonna do it at all it's not that they're only gonna market it towards the hardcore Nintendo folks because obviously that pool has been shrinking the last several years or so but yeah the switch will hopefully bring it back come on baby come on it's got a great start. Rest of the while it might be. I can't wait to see LTD sales of that we should we should be refining out end of this month I think in six days it might even be happening during the week this podcast comes out we should know some updated sales data in that game. I'm very interested. See if it's still on the switch. See if it's outpacing the switch. That's so cool. And the switch version too it's not. It might be it might be because they don't have enough switches out there. Yeah right so everyone's just buying both of them out. Exactly. I bought a link between worlds before I had a 3DS in fairness. Really. So. Respect. Hey you just wanted to be that day oneer right. When I get my 3DS whenever I ended up getting it. Just have to go to those midnight releases. Gotta enjoy that launch party. I don't think I'm gonna go to any more midnight releases after the switch though because by the end of it I had to pee so badly I think I almost died. You're doing it wrong. You gotta do the pre-order. I'm telling you I breezed in at like eleven forty five with my pre-order in hand I was out in fifteen minutes is like all right I'm going back to bed. That's the way to do it. Alright. Pre-order and the switch was so smooth. So we did it at GameStop. We just breezed in. We were like a half hour early. We don't even have a pre-order right. We don't have to wait and lie to buy one. We already have it. But go in. They already checked this out. They put everything in bags. They had us just standing against the wall till midnight. They said hey check your bag. Is everything in there. Cool. You just have to stand here until midnight. Get the heck out of here. Go on. I'm like I'm like I'm like this is why I'm not in this thing. I've never actually had this happen before. I was there day one for the Xbox one and that's not at all how it was. You had to wait in line. But granted it still wasn't like you know I could have showed up at midnight and not had to wait because I already had a pre-order. That gets the joy of pre-order but like this is the smoothest I've ever seen. I gotta say though. Literally everyone was checked out and out of there at midnight. Nintendo has been putting GameStop through its paces with Amiibo. I have been one of those Amiibo hunters. I have been there at the early days. So it's not just GameStop. Best Buy, Toys R Us, They have it. Absolutely. I was at Target launches and all sorts of stuff and they've been awful and they have been getting better and better and better. So they're training retailers. Until Breath of the Wild Amiibo came out and if you didn't get a day one you can't get any. I lost Nate again. That's not true. You can get what the Boko bottom one. Yeah. You can actually get that at retail price on Amazon. They never sold a lot of them. But all the ones that people actually want. Generic enemy didn't sell well. Really? Huh? That's weird. The only Amiibo that I can find. Generic enemy. But like Guardian. I can't make more of those. I just don't care about them. And it's really upsetting for me. I can find only Animal Crossing anywhere. So since we're getting so on top because we talked so much about Metroid, clearly we don't really have much more to say right now. I could say a little but we can one thing I wanted to bring up. No, yeah, yeah. The actual last topic for today. I was just looking at the time and I'm like, you know what? Based on where we're at, there actually is still time to get this last topic in. So we know what we're getting essentially for Switch in 2017. They released a graph. We've seen the lineup. Looks I think mostly solid for a year one lineup. But we gotta talk 2018. We're gonna go around the room one last time. I'll even go first this time since I've been going last the whole time. And we're gonna give what our let's cut it off at five games that would be part of our ideal lineup for Switch. Oh boy. And 3DS in 2018. So my ideal lineup. Yeah, my ideal lineup for I'll start with the Switch because this one will be easier for me. My ideal lineup is that Yoshi comes out early spring, like February, maybe maybe even right before spring. It's kind of their momentum keeper. They followed that up because we're only going with five games. I'm hoping this is a game every month. They followed that up a few months later, you know, maybe right right around June. That's when they have Smash come out, which isn't even announced yet. So they have a Smash Bros come out. That's like their their party, their their fighting game, you know, that's their Splatoon 2 and Arm situation issue. So they have Smash come out around then that that's kind of like, that's gonna drive some big sales. They followed that up because this is my ideal lineup. I have to throw it out there. They somehow some way followed up with the Pokemon RPG in August. I don't think it's gonna happen. But this is again, this is my on switch. This is my ideal lineup. So this is what I think would drive hype the most for the switch. They then follow that up with I hate, you know, this is like when I said the Smash before, I was talking about a brand new Smash, not a port. I didn't clarify that. So brand new Smash 5. Ambitious list. How long has it been since they stopped working on it? Those amiibo aren't even out yet. It's got nothing to do with making a new Smash game. They can put the C team. Oh, they could. Will they smash? We'll find out in 2018, apparently. I don't think so. The thing is, I'm also the belief that Sakurai is never making another. Exactly. I agree that. I think Sakurai only was doing it because he's expressed several times. So he doesn't want to do it anymore. And I think he was only doing it because of his relationship with Iwata. And Iwata is not around, sadly. And he like kills himself every time and he's only getting older. I mean, it's not worth it. Yeah. So it's going to be, I think a new story or if it is the same company, if he's not going to be involved. Anyways, that's my ideal lineup so far. So what was that in three games, right? I had Yoshi. I'm not even a metric Kirby Kirby's going to come out somewhere in there, too. I'm excited for that Kirby, by the way. Oh, I'm excited for the Kirby game. But but this is just my ideal five game lineup. So I have the Yoshi early. I got smashed kind of in the middle. I've got Pokemon kind of it was a Pokemon snap. I need to Well, but whatever this is, this is my satisfy your Pokemon requirement. Or is it not count for you? No, I Pokemon RPG. That's strictly what I want the ideal line to be. Um, it's not going to happen because there's no way they released in the same year, but Metroid Prime 4 coming out. Not as a big holiday title, but as a tweener, being that October release like Mario Odyssey is now even though Mario Odyssey totally could be the end of the year game. I think yeah, I mean, they could pull off like a this year where they released Pokemon in October and then try to let Prime 4 be like the holiday game to push sales. But they lost Prime 4 there. So that's four games. Man, this is this is where this is where things get really heated because this isn't going to happen. And this is my like you guys might think I'm crazy so far my most pipe dreamiest of pipe dream. A brand new Zelda game. Unbelievable. The optimism of this guy because the because no, no, here's my here's my here's my theory behind all this. This DLC, this DLC that that's being made, it's already done. They've been done with this DLC. What they worked on during that entire delay of waiting between the Wii U and the Switch with Breath of the Wild is the DLC. That's my theory. So if they just worked on the DLC that whole time and they haven't been doing it, that means I'm expecting them to Majora's Mask as bad boy two years later, the second Zelda game based on the same engine. That would be cool though. I would say I would really enjoy that because they've done it before. I don't think it's going to happen. But this is my ideal lineup like if they get Pokemon, Metroid, Zelda, Yoshi, Smash out the same year, that's gonna top your one. Yeah. That's well, no, because we don't know how big Mario Odyssey is going to be. So the tune two is huge in Japan. Right. Huge. And they have Monster Hunter Double Cross coming to switch in Japan as well. It's gonna be huge. So we can't underestimate that Japan can actually drive huge numbers since it's the portable intro huge numbers for 3DS. So again, but I think if there's going to be anything that can compete with this really big year one we have that can almost do it. And yes, I know it involves Zelda again. But I firmly believe Nintendo has the ability to two years this bad boy and get a Switch exclusive Zelda game out. We'll see. And that's what I'm hoping because last time they did that. It was awesome. They haven't done it since. So I'm hoping that they're like, Yeah, we didn't build this engine for a one time use. I would love to see a twist on the wild that was as awesome a twist as Majora's Mask was on Ocarina of Time. Oh, absolutely. Exactly. Exactly. So for 3DS, for 3DS. It's pretty simple because I have to talk about games that would make me want to play my 3DS in 2018 because I've repeatedly said I don't want to play my 3DS and I want to play my 3DS and I want to play my 3DS. And it's tough because look at the lineup I just said for Switch, why am I going to have time? Right? But five games that can make me play my 3DS next year. My ideal, my ideal 3DS games, I would come back. I want a new advanced game. Please. Oh, great call. I want that game so bad. I mean, I'd love to see it on Switch, but but if they're going to properly support 3DS like they claim, I want to see that happen in spring. I know I just ragged on remakes earlier. Some people are not really blow me up. But I actually would like to see them. I don't know if it can be done. But I would like to see Mara Sunshine get remade on 3DS for 3DS. I don't know if they can do it. Wow. I'm 3DS. It's going to be rough. But I think the new 3DS can handle it. I think it might end up being like a new 3DS exclusive. Like they did was you know, because they've already done this before that it was you know, played if they could do it was you know, played from the weed. They could do it was yes, they could. They could now that as soon as I remember wait, they've already done this, they can do it. Obviously, will they do it? I don't know. But that's what I think because that would be like kind of a nice like, you're coming down from Odyssey and like here we're releasing like this underappreciated really awesome 3D Mario games. People are open that 3D hype, you know, on 3DS. And that obviously could set up a potential future. Hey, we're also going to port it and make an HD in the future. But we're going to start it on 3DS because that's the bigger install base. And we need to push 3DS sales. That's that. And then we follow up with with about August release of people are going to hate me. Oh, 3DS on 3DS. They put it on 3DS instead of switch on 3DS. Yeah. That's why I said people are going to hate me because they're going to want it on switch and they put it. It's probably coming to switch by the way, just people know Pikmin 4 is coming to switch. Okay, it just is but in my world, I don't think Pikmin sells enough. And a 3DS could use a game like a Pikmin 4. And there's actually a surprise. I'll throw this at the end for switch. I have a surprise game for 2019. They'll announce it in 2019. But alright, so those are I got those three games. One of them I'm going to really hate it for I just know might even get hated for Mario or whatever. The thing is, you're going to hate me, but you guys don't know you're gonna buy it. I buy I buy pretty much anything Nintendo makes. It's never let me down to the point where I'm like, Alright, Nintendo, let's take a break. By the end of the year, we're going to do I think around October or so a new ace attorney, love ace attorney. We'll love to see another one. And my pipe dream game for the holidays. We just talked about it before how it's an abandoned series. Yes. They're not confident enough in it for switch, but they'll bring it back up 3DS with a new game, not a remake to test the grounds, even though you can argue a certain indie game on switch. Oh, it's great game. There's an audience, but but it bring back at zero is a big holiday game out of people. It's a big deal. It's a big deal because if that sells well, it could eventually come to switch. And then my surprise announcement, we'll just throw out what we could all throw in one surprise announcement from E3 for 2019. Animal crossing switch. But that will be a 2019. That's mine. Eric is like, I don't know what to say. I can't follow. Just give me as many games as you can. Okay, switch 2018. Yes, man. I don't care about anything else. 3DS. I know you guys like we love mad 3DS. I would actually play it have zero if they brought it to one game that is one game that as long as they bring back the death wheel, the spinner, okay, they get rid of that in the second one. And it was just all of a sudden you died and you're like, Oh, this is boring. But before if you could sit there and spin the spin almost like the casino slot machine, and you could blow their people up. That was fun. That was fun. So as long as they bring that back, I would actually probably play my 3DS again. You know what game? Oh, I can't. I already said I'm on a list. I can't keep up bringing up games. Yeah, because that just reminded me of another game that I want to come back that would be perfect for 3DS, but I'll wait and see if anyone else picks it up before I do. Let's go over to Mr. Daniel. All right. Switch 2018. Dream line up. What do you got for me? I would say, okay, yeah. Only five titles. I would say Skyward Sword HD. Because we could be talking all day if it's unlimited. Skyward Sword HD comes out. You got your motion controls built into your Joy-Cons. Boom. Perfect. And there works better than the Wii Motion Plus. Perfect, okay. You got Smash. I would say, you know, Smash 5 is not gonna happen next year. So I'd be totally satisfied with the Smash 4 Deluxe with all the DLC and then maybe they throw in a couple new characters and stages. Ice Climbers. Yes, ice climbers. Eight player Smash. All ice climbers. Free for all. All right, so we got a port and a remake. What else we got? And then they bring, okay. I actually had a list and then I totally lost track of where my brain was. Oh, you have to mind me. I've been up since three in the morning. Oh, she's swamped. Yeah, it's late to say for him. All right. What do you got? You got three more, three more titles. Okay, so then Yoshi comes out. That's gonna be great. Yep. All right. Star Fox. We got another Star Fox game. I'd love to see that. I really enjoyed Star Fox zero, but it kind of left me wanting more. Nice. And then I want Pikmin 4 on the switch. I don't want it on the 3DS. You're wrong, mate. Pikmin 4. Pikmin 4 on the switch. Yeah, that's my five switch games. 3DS. I'd like another smaller scale Zelda game along the same scope of Link Between Worlds or Triforce Heroes. Yeah, like that kind of scope of Zelda game. Another Mario game along the lines of 3D land, even, but a little more to do along the lines of the 3D world brought. And then they could bring Tropical Freeze to the 3DS as well like they did with Darko Country Returns. And I'd be all over that. Okay. Another Fire Emblem game because I really love Fire Emblem. We haven't talked about it all day. I know they just come up with echoes, but they can do fates and then echoes. They can do another one. And plus we know that there is supposedly a Fire Emblem game coming to Switch in 2018 too. Yes, they announced it. We don't know anything about it yet. So, I mean, I wouldn't mind seeing one on 3DS in Daniel's Dream World. Not the Warriors one. That is coming to 3DS. Man, Awakening, Fates, and a Third Generation. Even if they do another remake, if they did Shower Dragon again or something, or if they did Sacred Stones again or just ported over something more. Just more Fire Emblem. Just more. A port of Fire Emblem Heroes from the phone. No, I played 15 minutes of that game and I was like done. Well, you said something. I actually really didn't care for it at all. And then I would love, and this sounds like farfetched, it's not Federation Force, but it is. It's the story of Federation Force from Samus's perspective. So, all of these events that happened, and Samus is sort of like she shows it in the background and passes through. So, like the game everyone wanted. I wanted to go as like, I wanted to have both. I don't want to give up Federation Force because I was never one of those people that was like super angry at the announcement of Federation Force and like, because I love all the universe expanding ideas. But I would like to see Samus's side of that story too. Like that would be a really cool like, even if it's just a smaller like, short game or something. I'm gonna, am I a four? Five J, what do you got? That was five? What do you, no, that was, I don't know. I'm done anyways, that's all I can think of. Sure. Yeah. Close enough. Pretty sure that was fine. We'll go with it. I don't have to find like, these are for Switch and these are for 3DS. He's dead. And I was not, am I not here? Uh-oh. He went to- He might have died. He might have said something on Discord and I can't check Discord. I'm on folks who check my hang on. Yeah. He's still in the chat. Yeah. I'm here. You hear me guys, you hear me? Oh, there we go. He's back. Oh, he, he's just like, sorry. I had to go to the bathroom quick. All that was going on. Yeah. Okay. Excellent. Yeah. I was gonna say, I don't have a- What do you got? Five games for Switch or 3DS and I don't have 10 games here because I was not prepared for this question. But I do have some definite ideas. How was the idea there to be honest? You're good at it, you're good at it. So I came up with someone while we were talking. For one, I would love to see a Mario 64 remake. Right? Right? So, so you're talking about Sunshine, I want to see the original remade because the one on DS was cool, but it was, it didn't have analog controls, which kind of stinks. You didn't have the fine tune way to move around. The graphics were simultaneously better and worse on DS. Like the models were better, but the textures were even worse. It was so weird. So I would love to see them do it right. It's more like a port. Yeah. Yeah, it was basically a port and they added new characters that didn't change things all that much really. But it was fun and I want to see them do that in high def. It'd be awesome. It was just cool because it's like Mario 64. Exactly, exactly. And it could be a virtual console or whatever. But still, I would love to see a remake there. Okay. All right. I was, huh? Switch or 3DS? I want everything on Switch, honestly. I'm done with the 3DS too, but... Okay. Done with 3DS. So you're ideal line up in 3DS? I know they can't do that. I know they can't do that. So I don't know what to say. So I'm just going out to games and where they want to put it is fine, whatever. I'll play them. Sure, sure. I was also going to say a Star Fox. They kind of have to really try though, because they failed big with zero. They were trying to shoehorn in those controls, and so many people would turn off by that, even if the game was halfway decent. And it feels like they haven't really advanced the series ever. I mean, even Star Fox 64 was a remake of the original. Did Miyamoto say the only reason they even made the Star Fox is because of those controls? Because they weren't going to make it difficult to do something new? That's the thing, that stinks. They can't come up with new ideas. The thing is no one wanted that, right? No one want, you just make the same Mario games all the time. Why can't we just get back to Star Fox? Yeah, but usually the new Mario games have some sort of new hook, and it's like they can't think of a new hook to add. New Super Mario Brothers, new Super Mario Brothers, you and new Super Mario Brothers. The little tiny hooks here and there, you're right. They're not massive, but for some reason, every new thing to add to Star Fox is just reviled. Like, oh, that wasn't good. We don't do that again. They can't find a new way to include it. Time is over, that wasn't good at all. Right, right. So I'd love to see them get one right, and I don't know that it will ever happen, especially not next year. Okay, get a Star Fox right. F-Zero, I think that they should do it. I think it makes sense. I think that it would go into arcades well in Japan. I think it'd be a great idea. I know that it doesn't sell amazingly well, but I think that's a matter of finding a way to appeal to the folks that didn't appeal to before. It could be a marketing thing, you know? I think they could pull it off. And it's been a long enough time now, that they probably built up a little bit of a cult following. And I think that helps. And Metroid, I think, it's going to help there as well, too. I want to see a top-down Zelda, which is kind of along the lines of what has already been said there, you know, the smaller Zelda. But what would almost be cool, though, is if they went back to the Zelda II style and gave us a semi-Zelda RPG. Right? Right? That'd be really cool. So, I love it. I love Zelda II. It's so hard, it's so good. I'm just kidding. Not a Nintendo property, but I would love for it to be Nintendo exclusive. I want them to bring back Mega Man and put it on the home where he belongs. I mean, he's had so many great games on Nintendo systems. And they've reinvented Mega Man successfully so many times. Probably the latest ones that was really great. Mega Man Zero on Game Boy Advance. Really great games there. It was a lot of fun. And I'd love to see them do something new again. Or even classic. I don't care. Bring it back. Put it on Nintendo. Well, they kind of did classic with Mega Man 9. They did 9 and they did 10, but those were both from the Wii era. That was a while ago already. So it's... Well, I mean, that was more soon than the Game Boy Advance. That's true. That's true. But this was reinventing. They reinvented it with Mega Man Zero. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that was just a total. So I'd love to see them do more Mega Man. Maybe give us a classic style and a reinvented style. But if they're going to do classic, I want them to do Mega Man X in 2D again. No more of that 7, 8-in-command mission 3D garbage. Give me a 2D X. Well, and Mega Man makes a lot of sense. Yeah, great. Because it's not a smash. Absolutely. So it's kind of a good time to be like, Hey, we put up a smash, but we're just bringing it back. And I guess I didn't put this out there yet, but it just occurred to me now. A similar deal. They got a brand new show coming out. Let's see what they're going to do with Castlevania. Right, because they had a bunch of exclusive Castlevania games on Nintendo consoles that were RPG, like the Symphony of the Night style, the Metroidvania styles were pretty much mostly on Nintendo systems. And they had, of course, the first and the best one on PlayStation. But still, the other ones were very, very good. I'd love to see a new style of that on the Nintendo system. But you know, that's Konami. So they're going to burn that to the ground. Yeah, and Konami. Right, exactly. Castlevania Pachinko. Yeah, that's going to happen. On your Switch. Play Pachinko on your Switch. That's going to happen right there. Bring it with you wherever you go. Virtual currency that you buy with real currency that you cannot turn back into real currency. And then two, these are my last two that I'm thinking of right now. But they're related. Sure, sure. Very, very deeply. And the community is desperately asking for these. I want to see an Earthbound collection where all three games are there, including three which they have not brought to America yet. Yeah. Okay. Amazing, right? Good call. Then let's see Earthbound 3 slash Mother 4. I want them both. I'm getting greedy. I don't want one or the other. I want to see, I want it all, you know. Give it to me. And put it in 3D? Sure, why not? That's what they were going to do on 64. I want it. I want it so bad. If it wasn't for the fact that the creator said it. Yeah, but they don't need the creator per se. And then people would have to realize that it's going to be a different feel and they might be disappointed by that. But I don't think that it's impossible to make a good Earthbound game without him. It's been so long. It maybe won't be as good, but it doesn't mean it can't be a fun game that we all enjoy. Sure. Hey, you're a dreamless fan. That's cool. I do want to throw an honorable mention out there, and I'm going to keep doing it until this game gets made. I mentioned it a couple of times in the past year. I want them to bring back in some way, some form a proper tennis RPG. Dude, the sports RPGs were so good. That, dude, I don't know why they went away from that. It sold well. And the game they make now for the Mario, like the Mario Sports Games do not. So why don't you just go back to the RPG? That stuff is still RPG-like. That's the thing about it. That's what upsets me, because their games are actually good. And what really actually did look really good to me was Mario Sports Champions. But on the 3DS, no interest. I would love to see all those games together on the Switch in an RPG-style sports games again, where you're leveling up your stats and... Speaking of sports games, so none of us want to see Wii Sports? You cut out on me there. I didn't catch what you said. No one wants a sports game. No, Mario Sports is all the way. They need a Mario Sports Resort. Like, you know how they hit the Wii Sports Resort? Like, all of these Mario Sports games. I just thought of another. One huge game. I did, too, actually. Oh, hold on. Eric, I know that if I had to say this, Eric Hartley had the games he said he thought of another. What do you got? What do you got? I want to either bring a updated or brand new level ball. Oh, cool. Splash from the past. I'm drinking love bubble black today. That is... wow, okay. Did you see another one? No, that was the one. I'm surprised you did this in a new balloon pop. Oh, that's another cool choice. And you could definitely... You could definitely then also be paying homage to Iwata that way as well to say, hey, this was a great idea, especially was it balloon kids on Game Boy? That was a really cool one. Yep, yep. The other game that occurred to me that I'm always a big fan of, but I don't think is a particularly big seller, pilot wings. I want a sweet pilot wings flight simulation game on Switch where you get ridiculous flying machines like the weird... And you're going to start talking about that. I'm going to start saying I want things like Skies of Arcadia 2 to happen and come out on Switch. Sid Meyers' Pirates? Oh, we're getting lots of Pirates games already on various other systems. Lots of Pirates. Yeah. Yeah. But we don't have it on Switch. We need our own Pirates game. Yep. Nintendo needs to buy back, uh, Res and Sea of Thieves over here. Totally. Sea of Thieves actually looks really good. Really good. Almost looks like Rare might have some talent left. They hired new talent. Make a non-crappy remake of, uh, Conker's. Yeah. My ultimate pipe dream is that there's a new Conker's bad fur days. Oh, that's not crappy. But that'll never happen. Maybe Crossplay is a multi-platform version. Yes. That as a sucky, because I've had this Crossplay, I mean this multiplayer... Probably multiplayer season was terrible. Oh. What? I did, like, pee in the people outside. Yeah. In the bathroom. Yeah. I don't know why. It's just totally fit with Conker. Yeah. Oh, no. Conker is messed up. Except Conker's Cocket Tales. Wasn't that only in the first one? I don't remember. I don't think that was in the second one. It all blends together, I mean. Yeah, I don't think that was in the remake. I don't care. Expect remake. I'm talking about a new Conker anyways. Well, right. Forget the old Conker. Wow. He can't. The old Conker. Did he die of alcohol? Probably, yeah. He didn't die. Anyways, that's gonna do it for this... This extra long, but very good. This is a great podcast to come back on. For the longest time with just me and Eric, I actually plan from here on out to have at least one, if not two people in addition to me and Eric, every single week might be Daniel and 5J, might be a certain current... Yeah, I'll just say, a certain current editor-in-chief of Zell conformer has recently been talking to me about trying to become a regular. And, yeah. He actually wants to do a lot more internal climbing in general, so we'll see. You guys might see him around a lot more often. Who knows? But yeah, and I'm hoping that every now and then I can bring in some special guests. In the past, we've had Mason on. I've been talking to people like HMK and some other YouTubers, because this podcast exists on YouTube. So bringing other people from the YouTube community, it just makes a lot of sense. I mean, there's still Eric and I, right? We're the life of the party. I'm the one everyone wants to shut up when Eric talks. And Eric's apparently the hot one, according to our channel. Yeah, yeah. That I think that's the first time that's ever been said. Well, I'm taken. So it's okay. They can fawn over you. It's cool. It's cool. I mean, do you see this? I actually don't see it. I don't know. Just a chin? Yeah, a little bit of that chin. You'll see it. Just see it when we do one of the podcast. Well, guys, yeah. I literally, for the first time in my life, rubbed his chin. I kind of liked it. All right. So I want to thank everyone for joining us here on The Tender Prime Podcast. Both are guests slash people who actually work at The Tender Prime. With 5J Gaming, give a shout out to his Twitch channel. Go follow it. It is amazing. I watch his streams during the week. Very often. Just because, yes, I do. Yeah, I mean, it's one of those things where I start to do it because I feel like I owe you. Like you're doing this stuff for free, free weekend live streams. I mean, I got to show some support. I probably could do a better job than just watching it myself. I could probably share the streams, to be honest. I'm actually not doing as good of a job as I want. I feel the same way. I feel like I can give you more as a streamer as well. I'm advertising now. Like go watch him. He does excellent streams. Usually a lot of retro games, but he does some newer stuff, too. It's fun stuff. I really enjoy his streams. Go check him out. Daniel, I don't know what Daniel's been doing for the past months. He hasn't been making videos for us. I haven't seen any at his YouTube channel. I wondered for a while if he was even alive until today. When I'm like, hey, does anyone want to be on the podcast? He's like, oh, yeah, what time? I'll be there. I'm like, where the hell have you been? Wait, you exist? Well, actually, what I've been doing is I've been also helping Game Over Jesse. He's been asking me to help edit some of his videos for him. So I've been helping him out a lot. And then I've also been sleeping a lot. He's been begging me. He's been like, Nate, will you please come on one of my videos? He's a good guy. Come on your video. And I'm like, he's great. He is a good guy. I bet on something. Like the last time I did a video with him was he did a live stream before Breath of the Wild came out with a live Q&A session. And I came on as someone who had played a bunch of it at E3. And it was really, it was a lot of fun. I would like to do, let's say he's another YouTuber. He also kind of sort of works at Zelda Informa. I need to start getting more involved with the community. The problem is because Nintendo Prime, and I said this when I was hiring people this past week for the news team, I do 98% of the content, which means as long as I'm doing 98% of all the news posts and social media and all the videos, the last thing that I think of to do is, oh, I should email some YouTubers and do something. Like someone told me, like, oh, I should talk to Shiz easy, the guy who does boundary break stuff. And because he likes working with other YouTubers and he's got a pretty big following. And someone said, like, yeah, he'll probably end up working with you. I'm like, that sounds like an excellent opportunity. I have no time to remember to ever contact him to make this, let alone come up with an idea, besides, hey, when you come join the podcast, to even get him around. So it's like, I want to do all this stuff. I need like a correspondence person to set it up for me. Yeah. Daniel! Hey, maybe. I'm already in cahoots with Jesse, so I mean. Uh-oh. Yeah. And in McIntyre, I'm talking to Joe as well. And he's like, hey, I hear you like to edit videos. I've known Jesse, McIntyre. Hey, I hear you like to edit videos. I want a real toasty one. Oh, his voice. Dude, his voice is like butter. It's great. His voice. Yeah. Yeah, McIntyre was, I know McIntyre pretty good at HMK. I know Mason who, if you're listening, Mason, I might be hitting you up soon to maybe get me in contact with CND so I can get him on a podcast. Just because I really, I didn't follow CND much before. He did the one month wait for Switch. But I gotta say, he's pretty entertaining to do that. I'd like to get his thought. Like he was out of E3 too. So like I want to get an E3 podcast with other people who have played games there. So yeah, I don't know. Like I need to do more with more people, but I hope you guys out there in the Nintendo Prime universe on YouTube, Twitch, the Facebook, Twitter, at the website, NintendoPrimed.net. Hope you enjoy the content we do have and enjoy this week's stuff. Daniel, I mean, I guess he's a cool guy. I gotta start responding to him because he literally like messages me every week. Hey, do you have time? Hey, can you do this? Hey, can I come on your podcast? It's like, the answer is always yes. Well, the problem is I don't know what to do after I say yes, because I don't know when I'm going to have time to remember to do it. Go watch these videos, guys. I edited some of them. Yes. Nice. Nice. That explained, that explained really well. All right. That's how people said that. No, actually, you're a really good video editor. You really are. Like, that's the one thing I will say. Since you stopped making so many videos on my channel, the quality is consistently crap. I watch your videos. I like those. You like my long 10-minute rant? Can I put it on? I start cooking. He's not looking at it, but he's hearing it. So it's like a podcast for you of the Nate Rantz. All right, so just to wrap it all up, you could obviously follow me over on Twitter, at Nate Jantz, or Nintendo Prime, at Ninty Prime, or on Facebook, you know, Nintendo Prime. I've said this many times before. Nintendo Prime everywhere. You can support us on Patreon if you want. That'll ensure if we hit the $100, like our first goal, and there's a hit of $100, that will guarantee come hell or high water. I will have a podcast every week. There won't be like a two-week absence like we just had. And we've had this two-week absence in the past. We hit that mark no matter what I have to do. I don't care if I have pneumonia. I'll make Eric run a solo show if I have to. There will be a podcast. But it's only if we hit that mark. And now you guys know that, apparently, we only have one working mic. So we really, really, really could use some support right about now to get the new mic, or two new mics, ideally, because God knows, this is the third of this mic, and the two other died within six months. So this one's probably on its last legs, too. That's what happens when you buy cheap stuff. It sounds good, but man, it does not last at all. Obviously, Eric never has anywhere to follow. Just Nintendo Prime, like his shirt says. He's got Nintendo Prime.net on there. We'll check that out. I wonder if they follow you at 5J. You guys can check me out on Twitch, Twitch.tv, slash 5J. You can check me out on YouTube, youtube.com, slash 5J gaming. I also have a Facebook page and a Twitter. Just look for 5J on anything and you'll find me. Nobody else has that name, hopefully. Yeah. And you'll probably see them a bit more often because I promise at some point in the next two weeks, I'm not going to say tomorrow. In the next two weeks, I will get some social media shares and then some streams of likes. So I feel like, you know, I need to share the love. You share the love with me, I guess, or give some love back because I don't do anything to help you out. Your fan base has access to my logo and that's helping out. Get that branding out there. That sweet, sweet branding. And Dan, did you welcome to follow you anywhere? Or are you just going to continue to be a ghost and take on a game over, Jesse? No, you can. You can follow me on Twitter at Captain Bergersen. Captain is short for Captain because that's me. I also have my own YouTube channel called NSHG Films where I make... Well, I actually haven't posted anything on that channel in a long time either. So if that makes you feel any better. But you should still subscribe because it's quality over quantity, that's why. You never know when it's going to happen. Yeah. You never know when it's going to happen. Just like I never know when I'm in the videos coming to my channel. He's not going to let that die, man. No, no. You know what, though? Like, I keep bringing up, it's because of how good your videos are. It's not just that, like, oh my god, your dragon break video got, like, what, 95,000 views? I don't care about that. Like, your Metroid... There's a reason that your Metroid video is, like, the featured video on the channel for, like, all new subscribers. Because your content is amazing. And I hold your videos up as, like, a pinnacle that one day I can reach. I don't want to be the same, but I want to get there. So, like, that's why, like, I'm razzin' ya. I know it's all on good phone, but, like, in all seriousness, dude, I miss. Like, you, your videos are... I keep... I keep meaning I'm, like, halfway through an Earthbound video. And then my capture card broke. I didn't finish recording. And then I died a little inside. And then, like, you know... I'm actually doing an Earthbound playthrough right now, just throwing that out there. God. No, and now our fanbase is gonna be, like, oh my god, there's an Earthbound video, like, in the works. It's a hiatus for the next game. I'll release it when they release another Earthbound. It's coming! Yeah! That's great. He's the new Nintendo. Earthbound. It's coming! Someday. When they release Mother 3. We know you want Mother 3. We know you want Mother 3. That's great, Reggie. That's great that you know we want Mother 3. That's not what we want to hear. We know we want Mother 3. Well, give us an answer. Give us some legit teasers. Making me cry with nothing, with pain. Sadness. And apparently 5J wants Mother 4, so we'll just... Then you know what? We want our cake, and we want to eat it too, as they say. But I thought the cake was a lie. The cake, whatever. That wasn't on Nintendo, so. Right. All right, folks. We will probably all gather this group before we'll probably be together sometime again in the future. I hope you like this week's podcast, and we'll catch you next week.
