This Nintendo Life

It's time for our annual E3 show and BOY was there a lot of Smash Bros! Enjoy!

Hey everyone! E3 is coming soon so we thought we'd get this episode out early and not make our predictions redundant! Before we predict though, we discuss some games! Bally has finished up Runner3, played the Mario Tennis Aces Demo and played the modern classic Inside! Meanwhile Nbz whipped through Bloodstained Curse of the Moon - a modern classic Castlevania game if ever there was one! After the break we of course talk predictions for E3, while also bringing in some that you sent to us! Look out for our reactions to Nintendo's presentation on Tuesday June 12th and Happy E3!You can support us on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/thisnintendolife, remember to send all your correspondence to our E-mail Address: ThisNintendoLife@gmail.com & Join our Discord: discord.gg/mC8wjBd

We're back to talk about the latest Star Wars film and all the spoilers that come along with it! Enjoy!

Hey everyone! This week there have been a lot of leaks and we're here to discuss them! But first we kick things off with Bally's impressions of Severed on Switch, a great game that heavily uses the touch screen. Nbz meanwhile played through the recently released Runner3 while also dabbling in the demo for Sushi Strikers which is soon to be released on Switch and 3DS! After the break we answer some of your e-mails on pixel art and what games we'd want to wipe our memory of in order to play them fresh again, before finally closing out with a discussion about Star Fox Grand Prix and Pokemon Let's Go Eeevee and Pikachu.

Hey Folks! With the run up to E3 we're getting ready here at TNL HQ by getting through as much of our backlog as we can before games rain down upon us! First up Bally continues his PS4 odyssey with the first game in the Uncharted Collection, Drake's Fortune (If you don't want to be spoiled, skip to 16:10). Nbz meanwhile played the recently released Shantae Half Genie Hero on Switch, resumed his journey through the portable Castlevania entries with Portrait of Ruin, and finally was confounded by platformer/mind-bending reality simulator, Fez. After the break we take some of your e-mails covering good co-op games and what genres are missing on Switch, before closing things out with a discussion on the recently revealed Nintendo Switch Online plan. It's a doozy!You can support us on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/thisnintendolife, remember to send all your correspondence to our E-mail Address: ThisNintendoLife@gmail.com & Join our Discord: discord.gg/mC8wjBd

Hey folks, I know its not Nintendo but Bally and I wanted to have a discussion about the latest God of War after finishing it so we thought some of you may want to hear that! Beware of course, there are spoilers throughout this whole thing so steer clear if you ever intend to play this game! Otherwise we'll be back next week with a regular episode, but we hope you enjoy this bonus episode!

Hey everyone! This week we may as well be called This Playstation Life as Bally goes where no Nintendo fan has gone before and bought a PS4 to join the dark side! Both he and Nbz have been playing the newest God of War on it and discuss the difference between game design in Sony narrative games vs Nintendo's more mechanics driven approach. Bally also played through Owlboy on Switch, a gorgeous 2D indie Metroid (kinda?) game, meanwhile Nbz beat one of the greats (or so they say) Super Mario World! After the break we answer your questions about Nintendo's new President, Furukawa before closing out the show with the return of the Jukebox, where Nbz tests Bally with 5 new game songs! You can also vote for us in the British Podcast awards by voting here: britishpodcastawards.com/vote/ You can support us on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/thisnintendolife, remember to send all your correspondence to our E-mail Address: ThisNintendoLife@gmail.com & Join our Discord: discord.gg/mC8wjBd
