    Hello! The rumor mill is spinning about a potential Nintendo Direct this week and that's got us thinking about leaks at Nintendo. Why are there SO many leaks coming out of Nintendo lately? It feels like over the last few years, everything Nintendo is about to announce leaks weeks if not months before they've had a chance to announce it. Why is this happening and what is the cause? Let's discuss!

    The Switch 2 Game Key Card Situation Just Took an Unexpected Turn
    Sep 8 2025
    The Nintendo Switch 2 game key card situation just took an unexpected turn and we want to dig into one publisher's specific reason they HAD to use a game key card to bring their game to Switch 2. The reason might surprise you. Does this change your opinion of game key cards? What do you think this means for the future of third-party games on Switch 2? Let us know in the comments!

    Why We're Enjoying Silksong So Much More Than Hollow Knight

    Hi! We've been playing Silksong on Switch 2 nonstop and have some thoughts about the game so far. It's interesting for us because we tried to play and like Hollow Knight several times and neither of us could get into it - so why is Silksong so different for us? Are you playing the game? Do you like it so far?

    Hello! We are mere hours away from Hollow Knight Silksong FINALLY coming out and we want to talk about the true phenomenon that is this game. It had such an interesting trajectory and although it broke all the traditional rules of video game marketing and game industry best practices, it's on its way to becoming one of the biggest games of 2025. How did Team Cherry make it happen? Let's dig into here.

    Hi! We've been playing a ton of Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star Crossed World Switch 2 Edition (goodness what a long title!) and we want to dig into what you get with this $20 upgrade from the base game that already costs $60 and share our thoughts on whether the new content and the upgraded graphics are worth it. Have you been playing this? What do you think?
