Great episode, loved the discussions. Got to say though, not a huge fan of the clutter in the middle of the desk though. I've been so glad for the clean space of the studio since the garage and I don't think it adds much. Best to try something though, roll on getting monitors in the back to give shoes a personality without that... And now to start a petition to get Kid Icarus Uprising on Switch

Gonna listen to this tomorrow, but I quickly got some feedback. I noticed that Damiani's face is a bit in the dark (due to his hat). I hadn't noticed this in other videos where he wears the hat, so I guess it's to do with the lighting setup? Something to be wary of anyway.

To answer your question Damiani, yes I just meant financially. I liked Fire Emblem before that.

Nice to see Ash on again.

I dug it, except that Charmander is much too far from Jones.

Really great episode. Makes me wish we had gotten a nice sendoff to the Wii U like this instead of that group stream where allies trashed and mocked it almost the entire time. (That's not me asking for a Wii U episode of Friend Code.) Always love having Ash Paulsen stop by too. I'm definitely one of those people who prefers waiting for official news instead of kicking around rumors, but I can understand how important these specific new hardware rumors are to people who haven't bought a Switch yet and don't want to get burned and have a new model come out right after they do. Maybe just keep the amount of time per episode dedicated to it down if this keeps happening. Cover the update and quickly move on without a ton of panel speculation.

That's a neat idea. Maybe when the 3DS officially gets the production stop from Nintendo?

Ok sorry but I LOVE the hardware rumor talk! On these slower months it’s my favorite segment. Keep covering it Damiani! Just do you, man. You’re doing great. I mean, it’s the news and you gotta cover it. Just don’t stress. You can’t please all the people all the time.

I hate the back to back to back hardware rumors, personally. You can cover it and move on just to show that you acknowledged the "news", but you're basically putting out the same speculation on what the hardware is going to be every episode so there's really no need for further discussion on the topic. On slow months, crack open some old Nintendo Power volumes, read some old Bloodworth articles, do some community submissions/topics, or get creative Also, the Switch isn't that crazy. It's perhaps the most logical evolution of 3DS' handheld success and Wii U's hybrid concept conceivable. Its success is impressive, but that's also nothing new, especially with zero handheld competition on the market and not cannibalizing its own sales by having parents choose between console and portable anymore. All of this makes too much sense to attach the word "crazy" to it. "Impressive" is fine.
