  • Is Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds the Traditional Mario Kart Experience Everyone Wants?
    Thank you so much to our Patreon community for supporting this channel. Join us today at http://www.Patreon.com/KitAndKrysta for exclusive content including predictions and reactions to the latest Switch 2 news *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Hello! We've been playing the demo for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds and liking it quite a bit but we can't help but see some similarities between this game and Mario Kart 8. So we're asking ourselves the question - is Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds the traditional kart racing game many people have been looking for since Mario Kart World is a bit of a different experience? Let's talk about it!

  • 188: The Expectations for Nintendo Direct Are Out of Control
    Thank you so much to Hello Fresh for sponsoring this episode!

We are still thinking about the big Nintendo Direct last week and we want to dig deeper into people's reaction to the Direct. Tons of games were announced and Nintendo shared a lot of news but somehow, there are fans who still don't seem very excited about what's to come. Why is this? Is the Nintendo Direct formula, something that Nintendo started 10+ years ago, still working to meet Nintendo's goals when there are so many expectations placed on these presentations? We dig into the history and the original goals of a Direct and examine if it's still working for Nintendo. Also in this episode, we're playing a handful of new indie games and we discovered some new details about Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 on Nintendo Switch 2. We wrap it all up with questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers. All this and more is coming right up! 0:00 - Settle on in! 9:07 - Nintendo Direct expectations are out of control 54:16 - Games we are playing 1:17:20 - News news news 1:34:39 - Questions from our Patreon community Patreon Shout-outs! - All Hail the Final Boss - Aaron Hash - Thank you Super Stars: Ben Eichorn, MaruMayhem, Eigenverse, KissMyFlapjack, Mike Chin, Roy Eschke, Switchingitup_, vgmlife, Link The Hero of Winds, Angela Bycroft, Thomas O’Rourke, Kyle LeBoeuf, Roberto Nieves, Fredrik Ulf Konradsson, Andrew Youhas, Chilly, Simon, krashuri, Master Discord, Ash, Ajay Kudlass, Fortygig, Travis Torline, EchoLadair, That’sSoOLANELL, MSMPokegamer, Cameron, Rburns, Aigami, Kitt 10K, Adrien, Nafon Clover, TheSharkAmongMen Follow Us! https://www.patreon.com/kitandkrysta https://twitter.com/kitandkrysta https://www.tiktok.com/@kitandkrysta https://www.instagram.com/kitandkrysta/ http://www.facebook.com/kitandkrysta/ https://bsky.app/profile/kitandkrysta.bsky.social -Kit & Krysta

  • $50 amiibo?! - How Did We Get to This Point?
    Thank you so much to our Patreon community for supporting this channel. Join us today at http://www.Patreon.com/KitAndKrysta for exclusive content including predictions and reactions to the latest Switch 2 news *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Hi! In the Nintendo Direct last week, we saw some really amazing looking amiibo but then after we learned how much they would cost and we were a bit shocked. We wanted to look back at the history of amiibo and examine how things started with amiibo priced at $12.99 and now we're seeing amiibo priced at $49.99! A $50 amiibo is wild and is almost as expensive or sometimes even more expensive than most some games - so what happened? How did we get here? Let's discuss!
