Nintendo released what appears to be the voice chat solution for the Nintendo Switch and it's... not great. On the other hand, their new online service (coming out in 2018) sounds promising.

One thing you may not know is that Adam knows people. And one of the people that Adam knows is Tasia Valenza, the voice of Poison Ivy in the Batman Arkham and the Injustice games (in addition to dozens of other characters and roles). With Injustice 2 launching yesterday, we thought it was a great time to sit down and talk with Tasia about how she got into the industry and what it's like to voice one of DC's most iconic characters!

We turn 18 (weeks) with this episode, so our podcast can now officially vote and go to war. At least that how I think it works. We spend some time talking about our favorite "barely legal" moments in video games, a cool way to keep your dock from scratching your Switch and if Adam is the only person that cares that Mario Run is finally coming out for Android. We also spend some time talking about Mass Effect: Andromeda's animation issues and the online harassment that sprung up as a result, whic...
