Hello my lovely Boos and Sheikah! This week on Nintendo Everything Podcast, we muse over Retro Studios' old concept art for Shiek and Boo projects—we really get excited about the Boo one. We cover the Switch's growing success with the 2019 financial briefings, then talk Mortal Kombat 11 Aftermath and the bitter reaction online to the pricing structure. This evolves into a larger discussion of these trends in the gaming industry among many publishers. Is the industry incentivizing consumers to wait to buy their games until after all post-launch content is available? And to respond to this situation they've created, do they exploit consumers' dedication to franchises and FOMO? And finally, we theorize how we could've saved the console that was met with a terrible fate: the Wii U. Check our links and timestamps below, and come hang out.

04:51 – Adventure Log: Luigi's Mansion 3 overstays its welcome.

53:45 – News: Nintendo's financial briefing shows big rupees and coins in the past year. Animal Crossing success—50% digital. Future plans.
1:01:08 – News: Mortal Kombat 11 Aftermath announced. Early adopters aren't pleased with the pricing structure. Also, a general conversation about buying games early VS waiting for "complete" editions.

Hello my lovely listeners-as-a-service! This week on Nintendo Everything Podcast, we're bringing up the topic that Galen dubs, "evolving games". These are games like Splatoon 2 and Super Mario Maker 2 that are back-loaded with post-launch content. Is this new release and marketing strategy to keep a game topical good or bad? Why is it done? Is this a model that can sustain itself for years to come? We also have more Final Fantasy VII Remake impressions now that Oni Dino has beaten the game, and we go hypothetical in our listener mail segment with dream studios working on dream IPs.
