Randomer Nintendo 42: Hardcore Mario Partiers

Another E3 That Wasn’t has come and gone. We didn’t get the convention, but we still got the announcements, the events, and now an episode full of conversations about it all. We’re talking Summer Game Fest, IGN Live, the Xbox Showcase, and of course, this week’s Nintendo Direct. From Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom to Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, PlayStation’s Lego Horizon Adventures on Switch to the return of Marvel vs. Capcom, it’s a lot to cover! And in case the game discussion wasn’t enough, we also dive into the news and AI of Apple’s WWDC 2024 and discuss the perils of food challenges.
