NEP 050: Tokyo Mirage Cessations #Censorship , Pokemon, Activision-Blizzard Oct 20, 2019

Show notes

Hello, my pop stars and mirages! This week on NEP, it's nonstop controversy. Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore is going to be censored in all regions, including Japan. What does that mean? What really happened? There's a lot of misinformation out there, so let us break it down for you. Same thing with Activision-Blizzard recently. Overwatch came out on the Switch this past week—did you notice? We do our best to inform you on what's going on. And we lighten things up with some heavy, chonky Pokemon announcements. Longcat Meowth is a good boy. Plus, our ideal Pokemon catching tutorial stories. We tidy things up with a chat about Xenoblade Definitive Edition thanks to our lovely listener mail.

NEP 049: Interview: A Hat In Time dev, Gears For Breakfast (feat. Jonas Kaerlev) Oct 13, 2019

Show notes

Hello, my spookies and cuties! This week on NEP, we have a special guest: Jonas Kaerlev of Gears For Breakfast, creators of A Hat In Time. Oni Dino and Galen chat with him about love for 3D platformers, game design philosophies, and a ton of underrated gems spanning across genres in gaming. In particular Jonas shares how they used their own branch of Unreal 3 on Switch, the necessity of trying new things in game development, and how they overcame Switch's limitations and created an amazing experience without any big compromises.

We then cover Doom Eternal's delay news and all the new details we've yet to discuss with Luigi's Mansion 3. Gooigi is still gross. Partner mechanic should've been Daisy. We stand by that.

Timestamps

03:19 – A chat with the creator of "A Hat In Time": Jonas! Founder, director, designer, writer, programmer!
41:33 – News: Galarian Ponyta is an icon, a legend, and she is the moment. Exclusive to Pokemon Shield. Galen talks about the competitive play aspect, and Oni Dino accidently offends an entire fandom...
47:21 – Doom Eternal delayed on all platforms. Switch version coming later than others. Doom 64 as a pre-order bonus on all platforms. Industry crunch and the surprising move that Bethesda made. Also, what is a "port" exactly?
59:06 – Luigi's Mansion 3 discussion! New gameplay, new trailers. Animations and art direction discussion; Canadian developers, Next Level Games, are knocking it out of the park. And a few concerns! And Gooigi is gross, it should've been Daisy. And inevitable talk about how much we love Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door.
1:11:50 – Additional DLC (and Oni Dino offends another group of people)
1:18:59 – Listener mail: (Oni Dino accidentally offends our entire listener-base)

NEP 048: Why Nintendo Didn't Bail AlphaDream Out of Bankruptcy, Pokemon Gym Drama Oct 06, 2019

Show notes

Hello, my major and minor league gym leaders! This week on NEP, we're going over all the new Pokemon details—including the controversies... We also break down the AlphaDream bankruptcy story, and Oni Dino has dug through some Japanese language reports and is bringing that straight to your ears. We also muse on our ideas for Nintendo skins for Overwatch characters, thanks to some lovely listener mail.

Timestamps

07:40 – Adventure Log: Super Kirby Crush, Borderlands 3, Untitled Goose Game
36:06 – Pokemon Sword Shield news, changes, updates, controversy... Can this game ever escape it? Game Informer releases info but then Pokemon Company backtracks on it. 18 gyms? 16? Only 8? Masuda also teases new systems for Sword Shield that they haven't revealed yet. Helps to remove tedium? And Zamazenta and Zacian names finally make sense, but Galen and Oni Dino are still not impressed. They sound like Kingdom Hearts villains.
1:05:03 – Big story: Mario & Luigi RPG series developers, AlphaDream, have filed for bankruptcy. What does this mean? Why didn't Nintendo bail them out? We talk fan reactions, misconceptions and the business side of things. And of course we bowtie the discussion with a reminder of Oni Dino's idea for a brand new Mario RPG series with a job system. It's such a good idea!
1:19:28 – Additional DLC
1:24:12 – Listener mail: Nintendo skins in Overwatch! Who should be whom?

NEP 047: Untitled Goose at Nintendo France bans Dragon Quest Hero in Smash Sep 29, 2019

Show notes

Hello, my geese and goslings! This week on NEP we've got some controversial and complex talking points: Hero being banned then unbanned in official Nintendo France tournaments (and what constitutes an OP character or a ban), Mario Kart Tour and the success and failure of mobile games and how that affects genuine gaming, and the Switch Lite launching on the market. We then get some great listener mail sent to us and we blather on there, too, because complex issues require complex analysis.

Timestamps

05:16 – Adventure Log: U ntitled Goose Game, Boderlands 3 and Chasm
20something? – Hero controversy in Smash Bros Ultimate brought to a head by Nintendo France banning then quickly unbanning him and ALL future DLC characters. We do a big strong feelings. Also, generally speaking, is it ever a good idea to ban a character at all? We muse.
51:39 – Mario Kart Tour. Success and failure? Huge downloads that aren't turning into too much revenue sorta. But also Gold Pass Subscription... We're really mixed on this.
1:03:24 – Switch Lite launches and is very successful! And Galen spreads misinformation. Oni reprimands.
1:12:29 – Additional DLC
1:18:04 – Listener mail! Xenoblade Chronicles Dilemma Edition. Then microtransactions, country-wide bans, and the social science of this growing issue in the games industry.
1:42:10 – Oni Dino's dumb story this week in Shinjuku.
