Exciting news! NX is now available on its own dedicated feed, so please look for us there and subscribe! After episode 10, the dedicated NX podcast feed will be the ONLY place to listen to new episodes of NX! Look. Every episode I try to inject some personality into these descriptions that nobody reads, but it's a bank holiday today, and quite frankly I can't be arsed. So instead, below is the exact message Smark sent me about this episode: Games discussed - Dune 2 (not a game), Chrono Trigger, Mario vs DK, Metroid Prime HD, Vampire Survivors, Pokemon Violet News/Topics - F-Zero is it shite?

NX | Ep7: Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase

Join the gang as we break down the recent Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase and ask all the big questions. Does Snake Rattle 'n' Roll still hold up? Did it ever? Is Pocket Card Jockey even a real game? Why does it feel so nice to say "Contra: Operation Galuga"? Try it: Galooooga. Galooooooga. Lovely stuff.

NX | Ep6: Switch 2 & Extraneous Waffle

Hey! The Switch 2 rumour mill keeps on chugging. Although mills don't actually chug, do they? I suppose former host of Channel 5's Games World, Bob Mills, looks like he's chugged a few pints in his time... So there we go. Mills can chug. Now shut up and let me get on with this. Er... Switch 2, yeah. That's covered here. We've also played a bunch of stuff, including Super Mario RPG, Cassette Beasts, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown and Case of the Golden Idol. There's also an EPIC game of Mario or Smario to finish you off.
