    Call of Duty is Coming to Switch 2 - Will Anyone Care This Time?

    Join us today at http://www.Patreon.com/KitAndKrysta for tons of exclusive content! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Hello! A big announcement dropped and the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is coming to Switch 2. We did the math and it's been over 13 years since a Call of Duty game was on a Nintendo platform so we have to ask, do the Nintendo fans care about Call of Duty and will they play it on a Switch 2? We also take a look back at Call of Duty's interesting history on Nintendo platforms and talk a bit about our experience working at Nintendo on the Wii U Call of Duty games. Hope you enjoy this video!

Can you believe we're almost at the one year anniversary of the Nintendo Switch 2? It's wild that it's already here so we wanted to check in and see if Nintendo's kept all their promises that they made to us when the system launched. We'll give them either a pass or fail on some of the very definite things they said and then give an overall score for our year with Nintendo Switch 2. Also in this episode, we talk about who we think is developing the upcoming Star Fox game and apparently The Legend of Zelda Movie is now releasing earlier. We're also playing the new game Mina the Hollower and we have a lot to share about our experience so far.

    Nintendo Needs More Than Just Nostalgia Right Now

    Join us today at http://www.Patreon.com/KitAndKrysta for tons of exclusive content! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Hi! Nintendo just announced the new Star Fox game coming to Switch 2 and it's a remake of Star Fox 64. There are also rumors and leaks about a remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time also coming to Switch 2, which is also originally a Nintendo 64 game. If that's true, the two biggest games of the year for Switch 2 are remakes. We have to ask ourselves the question, is Nintendo coasting TOO much on nostalgia at this point? Where is the new IP and fresh ideas? What do you think?

Today we want to talk about Shigeru Miyamoto and his complicated legacy working at Nintendo for nearly 50 years! His role has changed so much from when he first started at the company in the 1970s and has really evolved into something completely different. How will people remember Mr. Miyamoto when he finally decides to retire? These are the big questions we're asking. Also in this episode, more news has emerged about Nintendo's financials. Nintendo's stock is plummeting and we discuss if Nintendo is worried about this. We also have more comments from Nintendo global president Shuntaro Furukawa on what the company is doing to keep Switch 2 momentum high despite the upcoming price hike. We also started to play Indiana Jones on the Switch 2 and we're super impressed with this version of the game and we'll tell you why. We also finished Mixtape, the new indie game that's getting all sorts of buzz. We have so much in this jam-packed episode so settle on in! 0:00 - Welcome to episode 2229:20 - Shigeru Miyamoto's legacy 59:44 - News news news 1:21:04 - Games we are playing Patreon shout-outs- All Hail the Final Boss - Aaron Hash - Thank you Super Stars: MaruMayhem, Eigenverse, Mike Chin, Roy Eschke, vgmlife, Link The Hero of Winds, Angela Bycroft, Thomas O’Rourke, Kyle LeBoeuf, Andrew Youhas, Chilly, krashuri, Master Discord, Travis Torline, EchoLadair, MSMPokeGamer, RBurns, KITT 10K, Adrien, Nafon Clover, TheSharkAmongMen, RainTech, KissMyFlapjack, Paul Gale Network, Cameron, Fredrik Ulf Konradsson, Catsually Nerdy Follow Us! https://www.patreon.com/kitandkrystahttps://twitter.com/kitandkrystahttps://www.tiktok.com/@kitandkrystahttps://www.instagram.com/kitandkrysta/http://www.facebook.com/kitandkrysta/https://bsky.app/profile/kitandkrysta.bsky.social -Kit & Krysta
