In a VERY surprising Nintendo Direct, Star Fox 64 is getting the remake treatment with a brand new Switch 2 game simply dubbed, Star Fox.

Nick and Brian give all their thoughts and reactions to one of Nintendos most suprising and abrupt announcements in years.

Tomodachi Life Is Hilarious, But It Makes One Huge Mistake - NVC 808
We’re living the dream this week on Nintendo Voice Chat, as the next Tomodachi Life entry is finally here. Join Logan Plant, Brian Altano, Seth Macy, and Miranda Sanchez as Logan and Miranda talk about their 35+ hours in Nintendo’s quirky, hilarious life sim.

The game is a blast, but its lack of sharing Miis, creations, and screenshots puts a dark cloud over the whole thing.
