The first Nintendo Direct of 2022 is finally here, and it was a whopper! We're going over every single announcement, including Xenoblade Chronicles 3, the Booster Course Pass for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Mario Strikers: Battle League, Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, Nintendo Switch Sports, and so much more (as well as the unfortunately named "Mouthful Mode" from Kirby and the Forgotten Land).
We'll also be discussing Intellivision Amico's nearly $8.5 million debt load, how the US government wants to put Nintendo hacker Gary Bowser behind bars for five years "to provide just punishment," and Google Stadia's downgrade to Google Stream.
Finally, class is in session with Professor Ryebread in our Gaming History 101 segment. In this episode, we're looking at the Super Famicom's largest (and coolest) peripheral, the Satellaview.
