Episode 928: Super Italian Luigi – Radio Free Nintendo

Sure thing!

Whew, the Switch 2 is finally here, and guess what? Jon and James are back too. Like, they’ve been on a break or something. I mean, it’s been three weeks of peace from the J&J Nightmare Factory. If you ever wanted a break from chaos, well, it was great while it lasted, right? Now they’re back, creeping around like some mysterious figure. Think about it—crops wilting, kids shivering, dogs doing their business exactly where you don’t want them to.

Speaking of dogs, who in their right mind has carpet with one? Seriously. It’s like throwing in the towel before the fight starts. Between the fur and the… well, accidents, you’re really signing up for a full-time job. Can we talk about the smell, though? It’s a whole mood. Anyway, hardwood floors all the way…

Oops, almost forgot, the Switch 2.

So, the show kicks off with them chatting about the hardware. How they even got their hands on it? James took a deep dive into the Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour (yeah, at around 11 minutes and 33 seconds). It’s weirdly like a quest, full of facts, challenges, and quizzes. Oh, and don’t forget about the price tag. Pause for a snack, though, because then it’s onto Mario Kart World. You know, the game everyone’s been buzzing about (at around 59 minutes and 33 seconds). But keep in mind, these are like super early thoughts. The thing’s been out for 20 hours tops.

Oh, there’s more. GameCube games on the NSO for Switch 2? Yup, around 2 hours in. You won’t believe NES Bionic Commando is showing up in Street Fighter 6. On the Switch 2, no less. And hey, posting screenshots and videos just got easier, if you can believe it.

Artists, man. Always underappreciated. Time to binge on Mr. Iguana matches or something.
