    257 "Splatoon Raiders" Is a Fun-Ass Video Game

    If PvP Splatoon is too sweaty for you, but you DO love Monster Hunter, Diablo, and Vampire Survivors, don't sleep on Splatoon Raiders. Matt explains how Nintendo's latest gets its hooks in from the word "go." Colette returns to the incredibly popular farming indie "Fields of Mistria" as it nears a 1.0 release, and lays out the reasons she's cautiously optimistic for the upcoming Resident Evil movie, despite it taking blatant liberties with the game's lore. Also: Have ya'll heard of "Dune?" https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/splatoon-raiders-switch-2/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/2142790/Fields_of_Mistria/   Join our Discord community: https://discord.gg/5xz84B9RRJ Subscribe to the show on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ColetteAndMatt Email us with what you're playing and we'll read it on the show!

    256 Shocker: Video Game Corporations Don't Want to Refund Illegal Tariffs

    In February, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the traitor-in-chief's batshit tariffs are illegal. So the extra hard-earned money we all spent on phones, computers, and game consoles should come back to us, right? RIGHT?! Nintendo says "no," and would like to keep your money instead, citing the long-established legal precedent, "suck it, losers." And we expect most corporations to follow suit. Time will tell what class action lawsuits, court decisions, and the Federal Government decide to do with our cash. Plus: GameStop no longer cares about selling games, and your Steam Wishlist just got a major upgrade.
