This week, a bunch of Koei SNES games coming to NSO (00:01:14), perfect for the #5 Strategy Podcast. Also, Xenoblade Chronicles X is out. We have a lot to say, considering we'd played a combined six hours (00:21:04). Jon is also playing a different open world game, Monster Hunter Wilds (01:05:54). Guillaume is still catching up on Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (01:016:57), and we take a trip down RFN memory lane.

If the answer is "yes," consider turning it into a allegory at least.

Finally, a good Mario Movie.

A lot of the content isn't of much interest to the crew, but Pokémon Legends: Z-A gets plenty of discussion time. With that, there are a lot of questions about the wisdom of a city for Pokémon. We also review your submissions for our next RetroActive (00:28:27).

This week, James has actual real New Business with Stories from Sol: the Gun Dog (00:07:55). And to be clear, I mean minutes of it, because that's all he had played at that point. That's okay, he shows all y'all why there are games he "just doesn't talk about here" when he tries to describe the bewildering experience that was adapting to A Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia (00:14:13). Playing like the pillagers he's fighting just feels dirty.

Being Jon Lindemann is a constant state of being with Jon Lindemann. Download in MP3 FormatSubscribe to MP3 FeedSubscribe via iTunes (Please rate and review, too!)This week we did our Top Five Games of 2024. For those unfamiliar with the ritual, as performed by RFN, there are effectively zero rules. The broad guidelines are any game from 2024 on Nintendo systems. Neither of these criteria are rules, both are flexible.

Nintendo chose to do something we greatly cherish, choosing to circulate their Switch 2 commercial well-prior to RFN's creation. We know this is a chastened Nintendo; historically they would have churlishly commenced such a commercialized announcement either after we commenced, or even at the conclusion of our recording. Our past castigations have changed their considerations. Alright, that's enough of that crap. We obviously start the episode talking about the Switch 2 video.
