I’m open to considering a $10,000 offer to name my first child Turok. Though, it’s worth noting, I don’t actually have children at the moment.
Let’s dive right in—Xenoblade X is making its way to the Switch, complete with “New Story Elements” (marked at 00:08:02 in the recording). Can you believe they showcased that scene in the trailer? It really grinds my gears.
In other news, it seems Nintendo has ventured into the world of music apps now. Yep, you heard that right (timestamp 00:45:04). Also making a surprise debut is a bit of “bloodvertising.” Intriguing, isn’t it?
After we took a little breather, Gui came back with some beat ’em ups to discuss. He’s been exploring the Switch port of Double Dragon Advance (timestamp 01:15:41), as well as the Arcade Archives version of Metamorphic Force (at 01:30:31). Meanwhile, Jon has had his hands full with the beta version of Monster Hunter Wilds (starting around 01:45:09). In the spirit of the spooky season, Greg has been diving into classics like Ghouls n Ghosts and Castlevania (aired at 01:56:31). Rounding things off for New Business, James shared his thoughts on Rogue Flight, a game heavily inspired by Star Fox (discussed at 02:00:34).
