Episode 145 of Nintendo Therapy! This week Kevin reflects on revisiting Super Mario Galaxy 2, how it fits into the evolution of 3D Mario, and why it’s making the wait for Metroid Prime 4 feel even longer.

Harrison brings news updates, including:
• Mario finally joining the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
• Early impressions of Age of Imprisonment and how it performs on the possible Switch successor
• A look at Nintendo holiday nostalgia with our Nintendo Time Warp commercial watch-along
(We rate each old commercial by Nostalgia, Cursed Energy, and “Would Kid-Me Beg for This?”)

We also play Item or Not, the game where we try to determine if bizarre Nintendo merch is real or completely made up.

Then our spotlight this week goes deep on:
Star Fox (1993) and Star Fox 2
• The FX chip breakthrough
• How Star Fox helped move Nintendo into early 3D gaming
• The wild story of the canceled sequel
• Whether these games still hold up today
