    HADES... yes please! SuperGiant is such a great studio. Great quality, great soundtrack, great effects, great storytelling, great design, great controls. Thank you Nintendo! People need to start paying attention!
  • @AzureShrike
    I loved Bastion, Transistor and Pyre. I cant wait to finally get the chance to play Hades
  • @kahalghafri
    I'M SO EXCITED LIKE YEARS WORTH OF HYPE OVER HADES SINCE ITS ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
  • @DaveButtons
    In a post -“Nintendo Power” world, I find it fun to listen to these podcast and reminisce. These were very well-made.
  • @PeteZajot
    Switch users are still waiting for Pyre on Switch, hope they bring it soon to have a complete collection. 🙏
  • @pct87
    This game and that card game were the ones that interested me the most. Glad to hear more about hades.
  • @Prolyfyk

    As much as I'm full-throttle in love with all the Pokémon games now, I must admit, the reason I didn't get into the franchise until FireRed was specifically because of how cutesy Pikachu was. Now I love creating teams for the Battle Tower (the name of which changes with every generation, lol), I love the Dex lore, and I even have favorite Pokémon for each category... Cutest: Happiny Coolest: Tyranitar Favorite legendary: Groudon Funnest to trample teams with: Mega Salamence (My choice may change, depending on my mood, lol.) Funnest to surprise opponents with: Shuckle

    I bought Hades on the Epic games store and its an amazing game. You guys should definitely give it a try!
  • For the Warp Zone Quiz, I'd knew about the Mario Tennis one, because of the fact that Mario Tennis was the first game Waluigi appeared in.
  • @Eddub
    This game looks really cool! But I still hope Fall Guys will come to the Switch. Some day.
  • So here we have it- officially acknowledged by Nintendo that out of the last 4 main Paper Mario partners the one from Super Paper Mario came out on top. Almost as if she's woven into that game's plot wonderfully and has an engaging history that ties in to the main antagonist and the overall lore of perhaps the greatest story the Mario series has ever seen. Super Paper Mario's story was good. Hear that Tanabe? It wasn't "too far removed from Mario to be acceptable." I like Olivia and Huey too, but Tippi can't be beaten (unless maybe if you start counting the PM 1 & 2 partners, in which case Vivian would instantly clean house)

    Hades will be my first Supergiants game, so I'm curious to see if that studio really is as good as everyone says.
