A is X: A Nintendo Podcast

The Captain hosts his very first "Pinecone Awards" to celebrate the best games of the year in 2021. In this wrap up Morgan goes over several categories selected painstakingly from a panel of...who are we kidding. He just picked it all himself. This awards show is a sham...and NO we WON'T call them the "Pineys" either so stop asking. 

The Captain has embarked on a new quest: streaming on Twitch. If you're a fan of the phrase "I mentioned this on the show," or "We talked about this last stream," then this is the episode for you. A strange man in a strange unfamiliar land, Morgan Remington describes his review process for Pokemon Legends Arceus while simultaneously setting the ground rules for his Mad Max style chat room etiquette. A chat room for all to criticize and examine games on an extremely granular level, a place for all people of all kinds to gather under one roof to complain about the industry while keeping it respectful...Xanadu. It doesn't exist yet, but follow the Captain, and one day it will. The episode concludes with Guitar Hero and mid 2000's nostalgia talk.

The Captain delivers a from the heart review of Halo Infinite. With multiplayer woes that reach far beyond just a botched battlepass system, can this once legendary series return to the top spot among its peers? Later in the episode, Morgan sets his laser eyes to kill as he evaluates Halo's first foray into open world territory. Strap in for a critical review from a man who literally can't stop making food analogies. 

Vtuber secret1ysatan blows Morgan's mind with a dose of nostalgic games from her youth. Is there anyone in the world who doesn't love Mario World? Do younger kids even like Star Wars? What kinda games did we grow up with? Will we still be playing games into our 50's? What's the deal with kpop?
