E3 has come and gone. In our previous episode we gave our predictions, expectations, hopes, and dreams for the show. In this episode we discuss the reality of what occurred.

We talk about these games—especially Zelda—at length in this extra long episode.

We find ourself in February, the middle of winter, a time of dearth in the gaming industry. The floodgates of game releases unleashed in the fall have slowed to a trickle following the holiday season, and most developers are keeping news under wraps as they gear up for E3 in the summer. During these cold days of winter, we take time to catch up on games we missed in the bustle of years past and replay old favorites from long ago. In this episode we talk about some of the games keeping us entertained at the moment, including Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, The Witcher III, Metal Gear Solid 4, Yo-Kai Watch, Fallout 4, and more.

In this episode, we bring in special guest Andrew DiMarcangelo of the PolyComics podcast to discuss Nintendo's current troubles--their NintendWoes, if you will. Wii U sales have been abysmal, and Nintendo has posted terrible financial losses for the last couple of years. What could they do to turn the game around? What games would help them, and what policies should they change? We ponder these questions and more in hopes to find hope and a solution for the Big N's big problems.
