Matt kicks off with Video Game Fun Facts by ranking the James Bond 007 games from worst to best based on Metacritic scores. Then we break down the September 12 Nintendo Direct highlights: the Super Mario Galaxy Movie (April 3, 2026), Super Mario Galaxy + Galaxy 2 hitting Switch on Oct 2, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond dated Dec 4, 2025, Hades II landing Sept 25, 2025, a brand-new Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave (2026), Resident Evil Requiem (Feb 27, 2026), plus fresh Mario, Yoshi, and more for Switch and Switch 2.Tim also raises concerns about Nintendo’s DLC strategy—specifically Pokémon announcing paid DLC before the base game even launches. We break down what that means for player trust, perceived value, and whether this sets a bad precedent for future first-party releases.
