Episode description

We’re joined by Katie Shesko to talk about speedrunning and Games Done Quick! We discuss her experience in learning to speed run Zelda games, attending GDQ, and how the event has evolved and ways it might continue to. We also review all the gaming and Nintendo news, including Switch 2 leaks and rumors, leaked emails showing Nintendo’s thoughts on Virtual Console and NSO, the D.I.C.E. Awards nominees, and more. As always, we close with the games we’ve all been playing. Listen to Super Switch Headz on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you enjoy podcasts.
