Is there TOO MANY Cozy Games on Nintendo Switch? | NONTENDO VS LISS THE LASS | #97

Welcome to the Nontendo podcast. My name is Wood and today I'm sat with
Liz. The last How's a Guy didn't even give you a chance to talk
before he cut the intro. Yeah, you said, shut up, Jesus,
and I'm also not going to give you a chance to talk. That's
horrible, that's all. I don't even like the joke I just made it.
Gets a woman on, I'll tell me to get back in the kitchen.
No, no, my god, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Oh
my god. I'm so excited to finally have a woman on the show.
And he tells you to shut up. Yeah, you've got Christa. And
then we're joined here too with Kim too. That's true. Wow, man,
look at the law you know about the show. I know so much
about this show. I'm a very big fan. And yes, of course
we had Christa on. I want to talk about all of that, but
first we do have an obligation. And before we cut to that obligation,
I just want to let everybody know that we're selling mugs again. You can
get these mugs and I also have a shaker cup. And now the other
thing. The mugs are very nice. They are etched Ooh yeah, listen,
listen this time e. This episode of the Nontendo podcast is brought to
you by surf Shark VPN. And for video watchers, you might notice that,
Yeah, I'm sat in my house right now. I had to shoot
this ahead of time. Surf Shark is a virtual private network because why wouldn't
you want your own private network? Think about it. It's like catching an
economy flight with loads of other people on the plane that can see you,
or traveling in a private jet. You know, usually those are very expensive,
those types of experiences, but this is extremely affordable. In fact,
if you use code Nintendo, you'll get three months free of surf Shark VPN.
Or click the link down below. I'll give you more reasons to do
that though. So a VPN will mask everything that you do online, keeping
you safe in private, covering up what you do, encrypting your data and
your information, for example, while shopping online. It'll protect you when you
use your credit cards or any kind of payment information so that no one can
steal that and then spend your money. But there are fun things that you
can do with the VPN too. I think probably the best use case for
me anyway is to change my region so that when I load up Netflix or
other streaming apps, I get access to that region's content. Obviously, I'm
Australian and a lot of Australian shows you can't watch outside of Australia. There
are so many other benefits, like getting better deals while shopping, safety on
public Wi Fi, region blocked videos or websites, no risk and trying.
Because surf Shark has a thirty day money back guarantee, you can use surf
Shark on all of your devices with just one account. So again, coupon
code Nontendo click the link below and you'll get three months of surf Shark free.
Okay, welcome bag. Yes, now we can start the show with
no interruptions. I love that maybe too. How are you feeling I'm feeling
great. I'm feeling you know, a little nervous, but very excited.
Don't get nervous. I'm a little nervous. Actually yeah really, yeah you
want to go? We could leave, just leave, No, I have
Liz the Last with me today. Very excited. Your channel is a very
cozy and awesome and wow, very exploding channel like your your views are crazy.
Thank you considering just have a flop on inten dogs, like can we
believe that that's kind of rude? Actually, that's okay. I just had
a flop to on a clickbait thing that I did, So I'm right there
with you. It's tough right now on YouTube because we have TikTok and everything
stealing views, which you don't have to go into that, butte Yeah,
YouTube, I feel like I found my home there. Like I've tried a
little bit of everything, and I just prefer the longer format videos. Yeah,
me too, really long format for you. We were watching one that
was an hour and a half long while we were driving up here, which
is kind of was perfect actually for the two hour drive that we had.
Yeah, it kind of depends on what I end up playing, because I
mean, like a Starty Valley video, I drop like eighty ninety one hundred
hours on a playthrough, and so it's like, how do I condense that
to even like two hours? That's INSANEO. And then other things that I'm
doing, like I'm trying to work through all of the SIMS games on console.
Yeah, weird console variations and spin offs and each of those games,
you know, like I drop so many hours into it. I want to
talk about the whole game, not just do like a quick let's play.
So when I am trying to condense it down, like every single time,
I'm like, God, this could be shorter, but I have so much
to say. So yeah, and that's tough too, because you've got to
try and like balance people's attention spans. I always feel like when my videos
get past twenty minutes, I'm like, people even gonna want to hear my
voice for that long. But the way you deliver the videos are very fun,
very engaging. There's a lot of human we're in comedy, a lot
of swearing. I noticed, Yeah, yeah, I have a little bit
of a potty mouth. That's kind of like that. I'm like, oh,
gosh, am I allowed to curse on here? You asked me before
we went live. I was like, am I allowed to goes on here?
Yeah? How much? Though? That's the question I told you.
Bob swore like a sailor. Bob invented new swear words on the show,
So I mean, try and top that. Yeah, No, I don't
think I can, but I just you know, I'm a little nervous about
that because I'm like, oh, I don't want to be too much.
Oh, you should definitely be you. Do you want me to swear with
you right now? Oh? My god? What's your Does that make you
feel more comfortable? What's your cursive choice? Oh? I can't say that
one. Literally, YouTube won't let me say that one. Oh is it
the sea word? I'm Australia because you're Australia. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'll give you what you want to like, warm up, I can
give you a piss shit okay, shit's good balls Okay, I feel like
you're going back backwards. Oh well, how how much more forward can you
get? Like? Fuck? Yeah, that's the one. I didn't want
to say it. Yeah, I gave you. I gave you the I
feel like a nice little frick in your videos sometimes, no, because I'm
not pen you know, I don't play Fortnite yeah either, no, I
uh, I just I told you. I just swear in my videos,
but then I bleep it out or like I cut or whatever. Do a
funny little thing, a little gag, funny little funny little guy. Because
god forbid anyone hears me swear, they'll clutch their pearls. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, you kind of got to like be established with that. Like
I when I first started my channel, I started with animal crossing, and
so that was a conundrum for me, like, am I gonna be the
person that curses? Am I gonna try to censor myself to be more AD
friendly? That's what I did. Yeah, Yeah, I just decided that
it's not sustainable for me, especially if I was going to be live,
like when I am. When I tried streaming, I was like, I
can't even control it what I'm out of my house, you know, I
can't control myself. I just don't really care all these swear words. I
know, I just want to go off and see whatever I want. And
so no, and I love that. I would prefer that too. When
I love that for you, I was telling you the reason why I started
doing it is because I'm older on YouTube, and YouTube started implementing all these
things like hey, don't swear it or hurt you in the algorithm, And
at the time, I was like, Okay, well, I'm trying to
grow my channel. I'll stop swearing now. It's like second nature, like
even when I'm live on Twitch. There's been occasions where I've gotten really frustrated
and one's like slipped out. Yeah, but yeah, it's like a switch.
Now I can just turn off, like I just don't swear in that
zone. And it's almost like when I hear someone else swear around me when
I'm creating content, it like it sears in my brain. Yeah, not
on the part. Not on the podcast though, I'm like, that's why
I want to shut up. No, no, no, not on the
podcast. I grew. I grew. I guess what I would call a
Bob filter, where like, yeah, swearing just kind of it's been established
on the show that on this show that it can happen. Yeah, it's
nice to be able to have at least one medium where you can be your
authentic self. Well, and if you're cursing in real life, you know
that is true. I still don't swear on this show. That s what
I gave you is the first one I've ever done. Are you serious?
I gave that to you to make you feel more comfortable. Yeah, Oh
my goodness. I also brought Kim along today because Kim has been very excited
to meet you. Al show has a microphone today that hopefully she will use.
So this is how this all came about. At the start of me
taking this show and starting to add guests to it. I was trying to
like reaching out to people, trying to see who would be interested in coming
on. And then as I locked into my YouTube analytics, I noticed that
it shows you like channels that are subscribed to you and a channel called Liz
the Last just subscribe to me with a lot of subscribers on their channel,
And then I went to you. Oh, she was pretty cool. I
went to your channel and I saw your videos were doing insanely well. The
content was really fun. It's nintender and sims and very on brand, and
I was like, I'll just try reaching out and see if she wants to
come on, or if she accidentally subscribed, or maybe she subscribed for Bob
and she also hates me. No, I actually found the show through you
because I watched I think a video that you did with Kim with animal crossing.
Okay, that makes a lot of sense, and that's how I found
your channel, And yeah, I think it just came across the algorithm one
day that you did a podcast, So I was like, let me go
check that out because of you, not because of Bob. Oh my god.
I love the podcast and now I do really enjoy his videos. Oh
he's so welcome. Yeah, and then yeah, I reached out and you
said yes instantly. And I've been so excited for this day. We've been
counting it down. It's one of the only days Kim's actually come to the
podcast because she was so excited to meet you. I feel blessed. I'm
like really excited to talk about the kind of games that we like to play
too, you know, because I do like general Nintendo and I played Nintendo
Like I did a video where I played Pickman for the first time. Okay,
how was that? In my mind? I love Pickman now. I
really just wanted to get into it because the little guys are so cute.
Would you consider Pickman a cozy game? I It's probably actually one of the
most stressful games I've played in my life. Yeah, but I put a
Pickman in the thumbnail today with all the cozy games as kind of like an
inside joke that no one's going to get because in my Pigman review of the
new one, I quoted a cozy game because did people think about that?
Oh? They were like cozy game? My even even my editor like made
a joke while editing it, I said cozy game, and he cuts one
of the most intense bots fights in the game brackets at the bottom it said
cozy game. So like, yeah, I do get that those fights get
really stressful, but as far as like he's going around throwing some pickman,
grabbing some little bits, and like, well, it's guilt. And I
think that a lot of people can flate cute with cozy. Now I'm not
really entirely sure what the definition is, because you'll have people being like anything
you want to be a cozy game can be a cozy game. And it's
like eld and Ring people are tagging about because you can create your character and
all that, and it's like, I just what are we talking about?
What are we what are we doing? Yeah, I mean I could see
elden Ring being cozy if like, you know, you summer night, maybe
like the sun's going down, you got yourself a little iced coffee, and
you'll you'll say, like Choos the Kingdom getting ready to touch. See.
I do find elements like pigment and like Zelda cozy, like the exploring the
world or like the cooking and you know, meeting characters kind of like riding
your horse around all that's very calming and cozy to me. But then you
have fighting Gannon, and then you have I feel like you're just enjoying a
game, you know what I mean, Like you're right, yeah, I
mean you're not wrong. Yeah to me. Like I like to think of
like the cozy genre genre as a little bit more zoned in onto like the
life sims, the farming sims. Yeah, and oh, you're one hundred
percent right that that is the cozy john even like uh, like a little
to the left, like puzzle games, things like that. I've been playing
the two games from the Indie world's Sticky Business, Sticky Business and Stitch,
and I would say those are cozy games. Do you like them? Are
they good? Sticky Business I thought was all right. I mean I like
a lot of it, but I hate the button mapping and you can't change
it and it's so interesting. And then Stitch is really cute. It's like,
uh, you do little stitches and stuff, but it's all numbers and
like a little puzzle. It's cute, you know that kind of stuff where
almost like baby sensory shit. I don't know, Yeah, I like that.
Yeah, that stuff I did. I love that game game. Was
obsessed with Unpacking for a for a while. Yeah, definitely, because I
love that they can tell a unique story in such a short amount of time.
It's a very short game, but like you know, it's such an
interesting way to tell a story through placing objects. I loved it, loved
it. So speaking of like a ton of cozy games, it's funny to
me, and I'll explain this in a second when I looked at when I
look at you on your channel and your branding and you as a person,
very sweet, very nice. I couldn't imagine anyone being mad at you ever.
Oh yeah, And also like, I don't know, you're very You've
been doing you channel for like three or four years, and I feel like
that's not quite at the point yet where you've been possibly like soured on the
internet. Yeah maybe I'm wrong, Maybe that is more than enough time.
But when I sent you the show notes of what I wanted to talk about
today and I was like, you can add anything you want to it,
you were like we should talk about how there's too many cozy games because I
said that recently and now people are mad at me. Yeah, I mean,
it's just Twitter it's like Twitter, people that don't even know who I
am and they come and they find my tweets. Do they even know who
you are? No? I just it was so nice. You could not
have a bad opinion. I know, No, I don't know. It's
just like recently I tweeted about how I did not think that the new Lord
of the Rings Cozy game that's coming out is cute. I looked at that
for a second and went, nope, I exactly. I don't people decided
for it. I think it's just people that like to argue. Like That's
why I don't tweet, like whenever I tweety in so much trouble, like
because people will come in and obviously disagree with me, and they'll even be
so nice about it, and I'll be like, you fucking bitch. She'll
come under my tweet and say something like that, and it's just like,
oh god, you know, I just get so confrontational and like, I
don't read my YouTube comments anymore because sometimes people will have like the most genuinely
like fine criticism and I'm like, I don't want to hear it. I
love that you are so open about that. That is I need more of
that I really do, because I'll tweet something and people get upset at every
single thing I say and I do in every opinion that I have, and
it makes me feel bad. So I try and change my opinion or like
think differently, or like, I'll feel bad about upsetting people and then to
hear you just be like that, Yeah, exactly. No, I just
think, you know, there's always going to be people like and I think
people are really mean to you for whatever reason. I don't know why I
think people are mean to you. Yeah, I don't. I don't know.
The internet hates me now, I don't. I don't understand it,
and I don't know what I do genuinely, Like, I just think that
you're gonna have an opinion and you're allowed to have your opinion. So,
like we're looking for a permanent co host on this show. How are you
in La? Yeah, I do live across the country in Los Angeles.
I'm not sure how that would work out. You're funny, you're so sweet,
but yeah, no, I don't know. I just think that if
you have your opinion, you're welcome to share it, and you better just
be able to defend your opinion. I guess That's why I tend not to
share things because I don't have that strong of opinions, like you said earlier,
like, yeah, I think the cozy gaming market is saturated for sure,
and there's a lot of people trying to get their Stardy Valley in.
But oh, animal crossing, yeah, or animal crossing. That's see,
Like people have been calling that Lord of the Rings game an animal crossing clone.
I don't even know. I don't know. Tails of a Shire.
Yeah, that's what it's called because it kind of looks like animal crossing,
I suppose. But I'm not a fan of the art direction, and I
was expecting something like a little bit more sexy and cool. Well you want
to say, I was thinking like Rune Factory. You know those games are
like, okay, hot anime. Did you play Faith? I did,
and I one of my biggest problems was the art direction, like I don't
enjoy Yeah. I said that to Kim too, because Kim and I actually
got pretty addicted to it for a minute because we're playing together and that was
really fun. This can't play it by myself because I felt that way the
whole time. I was like, I am so bored. I'm going to
finish the first Not many games that you can play like that with, like
we can play together than Stado Valley. Yeah, so that was one that
we really latched onto. But the whole time I was like, these characters
are so ugly. These are a lot ugly. That was a okay,
I made a video about my opinion of I'm just sing this now for the
first time. No. I made a video about faith Farm, and again
I was pretty critical, but I did say, like I got a good
forty hours out of it. I you know, it's a farming game.
It's not really revolutionizing anything. So if you're into the faith arm thing,
that it's cool. But for me, I thought that the characters were so
boring. And then I'm not a fan of how cozy games are kind of
resembling mobile games to me, and I don't I can't tell if it's low
effort or not. I don't know. Maybe I'm no. I think the
gun too much and coming for an art direction that I just don't like.
You know, No, I think you're right. I think they are trying
to sort of resemble that animal crossing type graphical style, but with no experience
in developing a game like it does seem like a pretty I don't know who
made this, maybe we should look that up, but it seems like a
pretty easy genre to jump into and start developing this like slow paced cozy.
Yeah, so way to workshop. I somebody told me underneath my tweet because
they were like, let me educate you. Somebody said that they actually did
a lot of work on the movies and they don't really make games. Oh
well, that explains why it looks like that. Then that's what I That's
what I think too. But I'm like, man, Lord of the Rings
has so much like cool shit to work with them already, you know,
well why go this section? Did you see the last Lord of the Rings
game? Though? That? No, I actually haven't played like any Lord
of the Rings games, so I am also speaking out of turn a little
bit. So well, there's two things here. One, I was just
referring to Lord of the Rings. Gollum, Oh that game I did hear
about. Yeah, yeah, it was like one of the worst games last
year. Yes, I think recently Lord of the Rings has entered some kind
of like I don't know what you call it, where anyone can make it.
For a while, only Warner Brothers were making Lord of the Rings games.
I'm pretty sure, but it entered some state where like anyone can make
them. So now this person's making this thing. And then and then day
Dale like or something made Gollum. So we've gone from like these really high
budget awesome Lord of the Rings games like Shadow of More Door. There was
one on Xbox that wore the North was sick, the original trilogy movies of
Lord of the Rings, like all these really cool Lord of the Rings games,
and now we I've got tails from the Shire ripoff mobile looking animal crossing
style game that wetter wetter, waa wada. Maybe wait a minute, wait
a minute, yea, wait a minute, don't do this come back to
us. It's something a little worse. I mean, yeah, wait a
minute, make it sexy maybe, I mean, maybe it'll be fun and
we'll end up eating these words a little bit. Yeah, I watch it
be like the most fun, oh, like the best animal crossing ever.
I mean, you reviewed the Hello Kitty Island Adventure game. Loved that game.
Hello Kitty also just gets chilled out to whoever can pay for her,
right, And so there's not a ton of like a little wow. There's
not like a ton of like amazing Hello Kitty games. There's a lot of
like just random games with Hello Kitty. Right, Yeah, that game genuinely
blew my mind. Yeah, and that's a mobile game. It's totally a
disservice for it to be a mobile game, Like it is essentially long on
the switch, at least seeing it through a video, it's essentially animal crossing
to Hello Kitty Adventure boogloo, and it's like genuinely impressive, but only on
the Apple Arcade right now. And I don't maybe I'm incorrect, but it
needs to come on the switch, like genuinely, yeah, I thought about
that. I don't know how Nintendo feels about the straight I don't want to
say clone games of their games coming to the system. I mean, well,
don't they let like Hentie on the shop talking about you. I think
Hello Kitty can go on the shop. We were literally right before you walked
in, we were talking about how there's yeah, it's gotten. I just
went under new releases on the shop and I was like, it's so many
animate titties. I was like, well, I didn't know I would have
to switch years ago. If you have you ever made a video like that,
actually like I've been, I've been thinking about games. You should make
an anime titty game review. Okay, I will like these are my favorite
anime. T ah, let's just do a tear list of antai games on
Switch. That would be funny. Actually, yeah, I've mentioned it here
on there. It's a punchline to a lot of my jokes and other videos
where I'm like, at least it's not all the Hentai games that are on
Switch. But no, I've never actually had. But if you actually go
to Switch and type in Henty in the search option, it's like a hundred
hundred games like you search for that. That's right, Yeah, that's also.
Yeah. I was literally just literally means porn in Japanese. Can you
look up porn on the shop? Like, will anything pop? Look up
the word bring out a switch? I got to grab someone google the word
porn right now? Do life do live camera? We were saying that like
a lot of these games are just like AI based, they're just creating scripts
and they're just adding titties on it because they're just like, well, this
will sell and it's like like a dollar games yeah, free and yeah,
and they're just weird. We talked about that recently. There's also a lot
of them are puzzle games. They're all puzzle games. It's all puzzle games.
Like there's the puzzle and it's the puzzle is like a blank like almost
no color on it, and it's on top of an anime girl and you
see her face and then her like legs and you have to like solve the
puzzle to reveal the boobies. The puzzles for three year olds, Yeah,
it's literally like it's like put you know, you're a kid, and you
are like putting cubes into a cube hole. It's that. Yeah, there's
almost it's gonna be easy enough to solve with one hand. Yeah, you
have a lot of experience with these games. Huh, you should be a
video. I bet you'd be a cheap video if they're all free, you
know. So my question is when I review them, do I have to
have the four experience? Why can I just laugh at them? I have
to have to complete them all the way? Yeah? Oh god, these
are dirty. I didn't realize this is a dirty podcast. It's not it
is today. I guess that would be a fun video, but I don't
know. They just they let anything on the shop we should have Hello Kitty
on there. That was what we were talking about. That is what we
were talking about, the sweet, little innocent Hello Kitty. Which I learned
while watching your video that the Eggman is part of Hello Kitty. I didn't
know that. Who's the egg Man? The little um Sanrio? Yeah,
I like that little egg guy. I didn't know he was part of talking
about. It's like the Eggman carries and Hello Kitty. Scott Pilgrim in the
chat says, get out of our hobby infiltrating. Sorry if you like the
hen tag games, I'm not making fun of you. You know what,
I'm going to put that on my dog of like videos to make next because
that actually sounds video. I played every hand tie game on the switch.
Oh well, you would never finish them all, like that's a lot.
They just keep adding more. But that's the title, and I would try,
let's see how many I can get through. That's not what elaborate.
I'm not going. I come back to we missed you. He hasn't been
here. Oh you didn't. We didn't show the photos of you. You
sent photos in Discord Froster Show and we never showed them. Guy Fieri,
No, no, no, if you're watching the podcast Fiery Guy, Guy,
I've never heard Guy make that point. You know who I've heard made
that point. Every time someone says fiery yeah, the producers yell and he
literally does. Guy's not here, He's not he's not going to say it
on TV. He's not watching. Could be I'll grab the crew photo because
that's a good photo. That well cool. I was just watching The Guys
Grocery Games last night. I love that show. I'm a Food Network fan,
like I enjoy so many cooking shows on there. She's sucking up now
because she said fiery Do you cook it all? Yeah? I love to.
I've been telling them they should bring on like content creators as like contestants.
That's the one thing they don't do. Oh yeah, they could get
like like Tricia is a birdie. I don't know if you watch her on
Twitch, she's like a food creator. And she was on a Gordon Ramsay
show, one of those ones. Okay, probably the Layer one where it's
like Levels, Next Level Chef or something like something like that. I didn't
watch that one. You know, I'm a little tired of Gordon. I
don't really I don't know his energy is just weird lately. But I'm I've
been like a Kitchen Nightmares fan, and I love Master Chef. Chef is
so good. I don't watch any of these like chef guys, but I've
always loved Gordon because of that one clip of him interacting with that kid idiot
the landwich obviously, the idiot sandwich and the donkey dong and like all of
the good, like funny ones, but yeah, the one where he's like,
you think that he's going to be really mean to this kid and then
he's just super sweet, Yeah, like a human. Yeah, how you
should interact with kids? Yeah, I suppose, Yeah, everybody does expect
him to be mean, but you know, yeah, yeah, I guess
I don't like him anymore. It's just a normal guy, I guess,
yeah, yeah, Oh yeah. So how long do you go and film
that? For this show? Is so we do two weeks in northern California
and they do zoom and we do sixteen episodes. Where are you? I
am you in the dairy section or the frozen section? It's actually funny.
Oh no, you just you're dosing yourself. Now you just zoomed? What
do you zoom? I see you do you know where's Wally? But where
wait? So it's okay for being stupid, but if you look at where
guy is guys in the middle, and then go three, I don't even
see guy. How do you not see him? That's like far away.
He's got bad eyes. He needs glass? Am I going three to the
left or three? I see you? I found Wally. I'm standing next
the guy's son. Now I'm gonna find one day the browser and then you
can zoom in. Come on. Yes, okay, so wait, I
did ask earlier. It's a set right, Okay, it's not a real
store. It's a grocery store that they put in a warehouse. Can I
go shopping there at the at the end of they should do that. Well,
at the end of the run, crew is able to get like all
the stuff that's in, like the dairy meats. Also it's like perishable,
but everything that's non perisial perishable gets donated to Salvation Army and it's like tons
of stuff. So yeah, we do that, but we all take I
took like cheese and bacon with cheese, guys, bacon's I would keep it
forever. I'd be like I got this on guys, grocery games. It's
all like, h three, they did the burger. Yeah, you watch
history. Yeah, we need to be friends. You can see me now,
I guess I'm behind. I was wearing Teddy Fresh when you came in
today. I just see that. Yeah, I didn't want to be that
much of a fan. Girl. I still can't see you. He's above
the bald man in the middle. His hair se well cool. That looks
like so much fun. Guy looks like a he's glowing. Yeah, he's
like Jesus, looks like a villain in a monster movie. But there's like
a hundred crew in this show. So cool. Wow, your guys,
Guy, I'm one of them. Guy's main guy. The guy is uh
should be guy's main guy. I want to what this guy is about.
We're gonna get him fired so you can move up. So there's the guy
with the goate guy. His name is Chico. He looks nice and he's
super nice. I don't want to get him. He looks nice. I
don't want to get him fired. Wait, is there a guy below that
guy? There's actually so many guys. There's a lot of guys. Let's
see, does he have any gals? There's a lot of well there's one
too, there's a lot of people under him, but like physically, no,
I can't. I can't. Who's the guy in the red beanie?
That's Walda right there. I don't know his name. It's not wearing production
blacks. I never do. I'm wearing there. Am I on the left
of guy? Yeah? All right? Not a guy. But now it's
funny you mentioned that they use an actual store for that, because that reminds
me. I don't know why I'm doing that. What's this? You know
what that is? Uh? You know? A full Out show? Anyone's
seen the fall Out show? We watched the first episode. Do you like
it? And I loved it. It's so good. I thought it was
so much better than I was expecting, right because I just get it's like,
you know, a little nervous when things that I like. Have you
ever played I have? They're very cozy, super cute and fun. No,
I've played New Vegas and yeah, I started playing Full Out four again
on my steam deck after watching the first episode of the show, which,
by the way, last week on the show, I said that I watched
the first episode. Now came and I have seen all of it. We've
seen the whole we loved it, we binged it. It got better and
better and better as it went. It ended on such a high note.
The whole show literally started awesome and just went like that the whole way.
There was one. It was so cool. I started playing Full Out four
again on my steam Deck and I'm I'm sucked into it and I remember really
liking it. And everyone always talks so much crap about Full O four and
how it's not New Vegas or whatever. Yeah, I think people, it's
so good though, it's such a good game. I thought it was fine.
I mean I enjoyed it. I like the New England setting, Like
you know, a setting, A good setting will always kind of like get
me. Then I end up liking it more. But I thought it was
fine. I mean I really like it. But the reason why I tied
this into the supermarket is because in one of the episodes you're going to watch,
they go to a super duper mart or something. I think it's cooled.
And that was an actual right aid from Long Island. Wow have you
been there? No, It's like a closed down, abandoned right aid.
And they filmed all of that in Long Island. You should go there and
do it. Lives in Long Island. I don't know if bub was there.
Fun fact, I did a documentary on the A lot of the film
spaces in Long Island are contaminated with uranium and plutonium. Well maybe that's why
they were there. Let's get some radiation poisoning while we're at it. Not
to move back. I would love to be a ghoul on the show.
On the show, oh, like in general on the show would be so
fun. I feel like that that suit that he's in has to be really
hot and awkward, you think, so it looks like it's a full prosthetic,
Like down in his it does look like it's a full face at least,
you know. I feel like long day shoots in that thing. It's
a long time to put that on. I don't know. Maybe they have
like makeup artists are so smart. They figure out ways to like and everything.
You know. What I learned this last Christmas was that Carrie hated doing
The Grinch because the is so tedious. Yeah. I'm like, oh that
makes me so sad because I love that movie. Every day of shooting he
had to be in makeup for hours. Yeah, I've heard that he is
a dick in general. Really, that makes me really sad. He might
be nice and now maybe he's chilled out because he doesn't have to do the
Grinch. Really, I've heard he supposed heard that he hates Like maybe that's
maybe that's it. Then maybe it was just a dick in Hollywood. He's
very much like the Illuminatis real and like the's a whole I guess. I
guess that was mostly pulling from that, but also the the the other show
movie he did, the Andy one or whatever, and yeah, that one's
all about him, like turning into Andy Coon. But the method to a
point where he was like Dave Chappelle talked about it where he walked on that.
Yeah, he's like, I want to meet Jim Carrey. He's like,
no, this is Andy. Yeah, you can't call him j Yeah,
it's weird. Yeah, I heard talking about the prosthetic. I heard
that for the first couple of episodes it took him eight hours and then they
found a method where they see giut his nose. Yeah, it was like
Baltimore, you know, they did like that hours once they whoa so like
his nose in like the first episode wasn't c G. If it was,
I don't know. Okay, that's interesting that they started it out. It
was eight hours and then it became because I will say, at first it
looked pretty good, and then after a while I was like, oh,
that's c G. I but it still was good the whole. There's no
way to just like make a nose disappear. Yeah, there is. There
is one way. You can't just get rid of it. That's true.
That's commitment, that is to the bit, to the role method acting.
Even Jim wouldn't do that forever. No, that's cool. So there's too
many cozy games. Did we exhaust that conversation? You feel like? Did
you get out everything you wanted to get out? I don't know what all
I need to get out? You know, what do you think, Kim?
Like, what's like something that irks you about them? Possibly? I
feel like the issue right now is too many of those games are trying to
be animal crossing, because animal crossing at this point has gotten old. It's
like four years old at this point, and everybody's trying to like fill that
animal crossing animal. Yeah, and like there's some games that have done it
well. Like I feel like fay Farm. Aside from the ugly characters,
looked nice and it had a lot of the similar elements. Dreamlight Valley apparently
is doing really well in filling that void for a lot of people. I
quit playing it because it's overwhelming. There was too much stuff you played that.
I did play Disney Dreamlight Valley, and I was kind of gung ho
about the game for a while. I really was. But then once they
took back wanting to come out free to play and instead be fully paid.
And then also the Micronchi Yeah, just like I'm out. Yeah, that
was that was a nightmare. Yeah. I had a horrific Well I wasn't
horrific. Who is horrific? Was such the wrong word to use, man
touch grass. I had a less than optimal experience with that game because I
booked it like the eighty dollars deluxe thing, yes on day one. Yeah,
and I didn't get any of my stuff, like any of the deluxe
stuff sucks. Yeah, No, it was horrific. So I'm I know.
I was tweeting them and emailing them and I was like, hey,
can I get my stuff, because like I wanted to make a video on
the game. But I couldn't recommend it and be like, hey, go
buy this game if everyone's because a lot of people were getting robbed, and
like months went by, and then eventually they were like we've updated it.
Check your mail, and I had all my stuff in my little fox and
I was like, finally I can sleep at night. But I don't care
about this game anymore. Yeah, exactly. I mean I didn't buy the
game because I did like full disclosure. I worked with them for a little
bit and so how do you how do you really feel about the game.
Then I liked it, like I thought it was a good game. I
thought it was genuinely like Going Places. But I told people like, don't
buy it please because it's going to go free to play in Australia. And
then it didn't and then they took it back and so I was like,
just kidding, I don't really think I wanna. Yeah, people will find
this game to people just because it is so expensive, they're still doing the
pay early access, I think, or is it out I don't know,
but it's an expensive game. And then the micro transactions are kind of like
insane, like it's a lot. I don't know. I just I thought
the game had potential, but it seems to be pretty nickel and dimy at
this point. Yeah. I don't love that, so even really fell off
of playing it. I don't think the loop was enough for you. They're
like the gameplay loop and like the to want to go back and play.
Yeah. It was a lot of fetch quests really, which is fine,
but like, yeah, it just ended up being too much because they added
so many characters. You've got like forty little guys, but like, can
you make me a thing? Like, no, I'm done. They just
added a character. They keep adding character dais Duck. Finally, do you
have to pay for every new character? I actually don't know how it works.
I think now what they're doing is free updates, but they were I
think the plan was to have you pay for each little expansion game. But
as far as I know, I think Daisy Duck is free. So okay,
youse Daisy Duck fans out there, Yeah, I'm sure currency the money.
Yeah. Yeah. Did you ever play the switch Port? No?
I didn't. That was another thing too. I was like, please don't
bite on the switch no matter what, like, because people were having such
a also put me off of playing it. Because it's just the load times
was so long, it was so laggy, it looked like crap. Yeah,
it's kind of like one of the main reasons also why I have chosen
not to really do a lot of game sponsorships anymore. Yeah, you know,
I'm in a similar boat. I over the last couple of years,
have taken several not like a lot, like three four couple of year where
they're like, hey, we want you to do a dedicated video for our
game. And I kept falling into this trap where they'd be like, oh,
we can't give you the switch code until launch day, but we can
give you the Steam code so you can record all your gameplay, and we
want it by this date, and we want it by this date. And
then I put the video out and I'm like, hey, it's coming to
switch and then the switch port guess what sucks. And I'm like, oh,
I've just shoveled this out to my audience and actually the same thing just
happened without. I don't want to throw them under the bus too much because
they were like very nice, but I signed to do Urian Chronicles. I
don't even know how to pronounce it. I don't know if you can try
looking that up. It's Urian Chronicles the one Hundred Heroes or something. It
just came out. It's a very classic traditional JRPG made by the same guy
that made the sweak it in games, and it's like it's like a spiritual
success says that those it's one hundred characters you can play anyway. I was
the reason I know all of this is because I was locked in with a
contract to make a video for them, dedicated on my channel, and they
wouldn't give me the switch port. And then when they finally did, the
performance was, yeah, ok, the performance was so bad on Switch And
also like, I'm not like super traditional JRPG guy, Like I like Persona
five, I like a lot of flash, like a New Final Fantasy.
Going back and playing something from like PlayStation one era, I was like,
I don't know if I want to convince my audience to buy something that has
an eighty dollars deluxe pack that I don't really want to pay, that runs
kind of poorly on Switch So I, oh my god, yeah, yeah
that's it. So I personally I canceled it. I tore up the contract.
I said no, thank you, but but I will say that everywhere
other than Switch, Switch is getting like a lot of five out of tens.
Everywhere other than Switch, it's getting like high scores like eights, seven
eights, a couple of nines. So go check it out people. Yeah,
if you like traditional JPGs, go buy it anywhere. But Switch pronounced
by the way I googled it aiden Aiden. Yeah, also buy it.
If you're gonna buy it, maybe don't buy the deluxe play it first if
you like it. Yeah. Yeah, No, it's kind of a number
because yeah, like I want to take game sponsorships, but at the same
time, like I do fear coming across disingenuous. So yeah, I only
take things that I'm like, hey, I need time to play it,
and it's no guarantee, you know, And if I like it, then
yeah, I'll talk about it. That's the point that I'm at too now,
just like give me a key to I don't even want to talk about
doing I told my manager, I was like, from now on, I
need the game first. I need to play it before we ever sign a
contract, because if I'm not breaking contracts, it sucks. Disney dream My
Valley. It's tough because, like I did want to believe in the game,
and I was like, I had such seems like such a shoe in
for like, and that's one of those things like with me and that that
game. I was like, that's such a shoe and easy thing for my
audience. And with you Disney animal crossing style, they want to work with
you. You can't go wrong with Disney. Yeah, that's like when Pokemon
came to me to work with Scarlet and Violet. It's like, you can't
go wrong. Yeah, you can't. You can't deny that, Like that
is such a cool thing, and like you want you want to work with
Disney, you want to work with Pokemon, you want to give it that
pass. Yeah. The only thing that urked me about it was that it
did kind of give mobile game vibes, like art style wise, and but
I pushed myself to get over it, and I was like, Wow,
I actually really like your game. Yeah, and then you do this to
me, like you do you do this to me? Come into my house?
Yeah? Did you? When's the last time you even played that game?
Kim? I played it right when they dropped the toy story characters because
I was excited for that. And then I got overwhelmed because then I had
too many characters on my island wanting stuff. Yeah, and everybody just want
to take take take from me. They never give you anything. Yeah.
I think you had way more fun with faith Arm. I had so much
fun with faith Farm because the mechanics were so similar to animal crossing, Like
the flowers even look the same, and like you grow them the same way.
I had fun with that. Faith really felt like animal crossing and staw
do combined into one. Yeah, and I did like it a lot.
I did like it. Yeah, it was just what I'm not trying to
shoot on you for liking it. No, but you you are the expert.
So I feel like I have to defend myself here, Like if you
tweeted this, I'd be so mad. I would be in the replies like,
no, my wife and I that saved all relationship. No, No,
I think Faith Farm. I did get forty hours out of it.
I will say that I did. I think. Also another huge gripe I
had with that game is that it's so expensive. It was very expensive.
What was it like forty dollars and that it was sixty sixty dollars version DLC.
That wasn't even out yet on the game came out. Yeah, and
you could only buy the deluxe version on the switch. I think they farm
people. Let me know if I'm wrong, but that, yeah, why
are you selling a DALC that's not even out yet? You know, Like
I just don't. I don't like weird marked me. Sorry, I get
a little sorry, dumb. Yeah, well I really went off there.
Okay, Well, unless you have anything else about the cozy games, I
mean there's a lot that we can yell about. Really, I love to
complain, So I thank you. I'm not even kidding. If you were
local, I would ask you to do this more often, if not permanently.
Wow, guys got the stamp of approval. Oh, people will like
you more than me. I can already tell my girlfriend told me to ask
this question, but she just wanted to know if you guys wanted to talk
about, Like I feel like cozy games And I'm not saying this, I
just feel like it's the you know, the overall thought like on Twitter and
stuff that cozy games are like girl games, and yeah, I think that
would make an interest. Copy pasta follows me everywhere I go that like,
like girls pick up a real game. Like Call of Duty. You know,
it's a copy pasta from forever. Tell them to pick up a real
game like anything other than Yeah, I think a lot of games, you
know, especially like back in the day, like Animal Crossing, it was
like people did not take that seriously whatsoever. You know, being an Animal
Crossing fan as a young kid, it was kind of like, you know,
oh, you're playing a girl game, right. I I think that
cozy games are for everybody. I think that all games are for everybody,
you know. I don't think you need to be like cracked at Fortnite or
whatever to be like considered a gamer. So I don't know, And I
just feel like on YouTube, the space is so welcoming. Maybe that's just
my people on YouTube, but I just don't really get a lot of people
that hould a woman card necessarily, except for actually the Pickman video. Pickman
fans are so interesting. There's such interesting people. I love. Yeah,
Piman fans and Zeno Blade fans, we love them all. Yeah, No,
it's a they just you know, we're very like protective of their game
and things like that, and so but it's a lot of like the condescending
talk, right, like that's the main. I could literally come on there
and be like, it is my first time seeing a Pickman ever in my
whole life, and I've never played a Pickman game before, and people would
still be like you did this, this, this, and this wrong and
nitpick every little thing. And it's kind of like it reminds me of the
conversations growing up of like, oh, you're a gamer, like name five
video games, and I just think, you know, it's it's a silly
conversation at this point because the space is just so welcoming. There's so many
ladies online and gays online that are gaming and playing these cozy games and they're
just like living it up and having a fun time and creating their own space,
which I think is great. Can I say one thing that I did
notice, like the I think the pandemic also allowed people to get into these
types of games because I never played Animal Crossing me neither. That New Horizon
was which opened up so many doors everybody for everybody, and it also opened
up people who never played those types of games, Like it gave people like
a sense of comfort to like actually hang out with new people when you were
like visiting the island. I think that like changed anything too totally. I
mean it brought me to the online space. Like that's how I got started
with my channel, was with Animal Crossing New Horizons over the Pandemic, and
I found like this incredible community of gamers I didn't even know existed before,
Whereas like in my real life, I don't know about you guys, but
like growing up, I would rather have been hit by a bus than have
people know I played video games in school. Like, oh no, I
told everybody I was such a nud It was so like like people were so
judgmental and weird about it really, and like I remember, like me and
my girlfriends we used to play RuneScape, but we would make boy characters so
like we wouldn't get made fun of and stuff like that, and like and
then we wouldn't We would rather die than have people at school no, you
know. And so it's wild. Do you think that was that's a girl
specific problem? I think so, yeah, because like, you know,
kids were playing video games and it was like just very much a boy hobby
I think growing up. And now it's like, you know, my little
sister, she was playing Roblocks when she was a little bit younger and in
elementary school and middle school with all her friends at school, and I'm like,
wow, like that would not have happened. Wow growing up, same
thing with like anime, Like would rather have died than have people know I
watched anime until like high school, and you kind of get more comfortable with
yourself. So that's the same for me. I didn't let anyone know I
watched anime. Yeah, it's kind of that same thing with girls and video
games. I think growing up it's kind of like, well, by the
time you get to high school, like who gives a ship? But now
was that pressure to to not talk about that coming from the other girls at
the school or like guys and girls mostly just the boys at school. We're
kind of like, yeah, name five games or you know, like very
condescending about the hobby. And then also it was kind of like nerd shit,
like yeah, you wanted to like be cool and present yourself at school.
Maybe that was just me, but yeah, it really was like there's
a lot of like closet gamers at school. I felt like, so I
agree with that. I No, I agree, I definitely agree. And
I know the types of people me and my friends growing up oral gamers,
and we always talked about getting a game or wife one day, So like
finding out that a girl like games was always yeah, that was I I
was getting there. Our first conversation was about video games, and I was
like, Okay, I'm gonna get married her in two weeks. Yeah,
And that's the thing about like her. That's the thing about like guys online
that maybe comment those condescending rude things. Yeah, underneath you know, girl
YouTube gamers videos like myself, You're not gonna get any bitches that way,
Like you have to be like, you know, so welcoming, so cool
about it. I just like, don't. I just don't think it's like
a nice way to talk to people. But online people get so emboldened and
think that they can say whatever they want and because they can, you know,
but they would never say that kind of stuff in real life. And
yeah, as I got older, it was like definitely way cooler. Like
I don't think I went to my first like GameStop midnight release until I was
in high school. And for a lot of boys growing up that are my
age, that was like something they were always doing, but like I never
want to go. Yeah, I will felt like I wanted to do that
but I didn't end up, you know, finding like gamer friends until high
school either, So well, I guess I did have gamer friends, but
we didn't we didn't want to talk about it at school. Secret. Yeah,
definitely, So I don't know. It's an interesting thing being a woman
gamer online. Yeah, there's still, even right now, an insane amount
of sexism and misogyny in the gaming industry, to a point where it makes
me ashamed of my fellow male gamers. And if you're watching and you're one
of them, I am ashamed of you. We hate men on the non
tender men suck, honestly, and I have talked to so many of them.
No, but like you know, I obviously I have Kim, and
Kim's not really in the gaming space as much, but I've seen some of
it with her. But we have another friend, Miss Click, who she
deals with that crap constantly on a daily basis. Yeah, I definitely don't
get it as much because I am playing a lot of women games. I
play like the sinse in Animal Crossing in Stardy Valley. But if I like,
I do not know how women in e sports do it. Yeah,
they have it so much worse. Women play any game that maybe has more
of like a male audience. Yeah, it's kind of like scary. I
think I would rather jump in front of a bus there too. Have you
seen any of those clips of like goos that play like online games like Cool
of Duty, o Valorine or anything, and then like everyone's on the one
chat they're all cheating, just kidding, Well I thought you were talking about
that. Is that is one? Yeah, all the top Cool of Duty
women's streamers are all cheating. But no, like just like a girl just
like streaming and she's in like a game. Everyone's talking in the game nicely,
but she hasn't said anything yet, and then she says one thing and
the lobby gets so toxic and just starts screaming at her or like telling her
to go back to the kitchen like you did earlier. All all of those,
all of those kind of jokes. No, yeah, no, they're
all they're all cheating. They're all like dumb, they all play bad,
like all these like like pick one, do they play bad or are they
cheating? You know? And then also like you know, I just I
don't personally play a lot of games like that, Like the most like I
play is OVERWATK with my little cousin when he asked me to play, and
I played Diva and I just have like a fabulous time being really bad.
But I yeah, I feel really bad for those girls, Like I don't
know how they do it. It's definitely a whole different world. And I'm
way too scared to like be in that. You know, I'd rather just
not play those games, to be honest, than get yelled at it play
them publicly or play them at all lobby. I yeah, I don't play
them at all, really, I mean, I mean cool. The only
thing I don't play publicly that I keep to myself so sacred is old school
RuneScape, because if I were to tell people my username, I would get
shitt on, probably so hard because I've always been like a mid level player,
like and I still play to this day. I've been playing this game
for like what like ten fifteen years, Like it's crazy, so but I
don't know. I that's like something I keep sacred. But to me,
I don't know any women who play that game. You know, I'm sure
there's at least one more some way, yeah somewhere, would you play play
it in high school? But I just play it exactly. But it's like
you boys are brutal on there, you know, and sell me, and
so you still use a boy character and escape. No, I got a
hot chick nice. I love that, Kim. Would you consider yourself a
gamer? I don't know because the title is a little bit much sometimes because
when you say gamer, I think of the people who are video of you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I just like games. I don't necessarily
need to be called anything. I just like them, and I like the
certain games that I like, and I'm one of those people that plays the
same ones a lot. M So I don't yeah, comfort games for me,
just playing those a lot, or if there's something new that comes out
that looks fun, I'll play it. But mostly it's just like the sims
or you know, I go and redo my Animal Crossing Island for the millions
time. Yeah, now you're you're gamer pilled for sure, You're totally a
gamer. Like, don't be afraid to, like, I guess, claim
that title if that's something that you feel is you, and I feel like
that's something I try to convey as well. Like I'm definitely a more like
feminine person and I think a lot of people you know, are kind of
like under my comment section saying, Oh, it's so cool to see you
be like so feminine and like a feminine woman and being into this boy hobby.
And I'm like, gosh, like it's so weird. You know that
there is that stigma, but it's true and it's cool. You know.
Hopefully I can help people feel more comfortable in that way, you know,
because I'm a girl and I like makeup, but I also like video games,
so I don't know. Yeah, I mean with Kim, I didn't.
I don't want to put the label on you. But you do have
seven hundred No, you have like over a thousand hours an animal crossing.
Listen. If I love a game, I love. Yeah, you're a
game and I will play it off. First conversation was about Yoshi. You've
played a game? Yeah, I have one hundred percent to Yoshi a few
times. I do love that you play the game of my heart. Oh
much, that's so, I say it back. You guys like married or
something? Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, that's cute. Well thanks
for the laughing by and there always gets me. Thanks for sharing all of
that with us. I appreciate it. Yeah, no, it's definitely a
weird subject for sure. I feel like I'm saying everything and saying it right.
I feel like you did great, and I I'm happy for you that
you found this community that you're very happy in and very supported by and that
you can have fun with and just be your natural self and just be you
and play the games that you like. That's awesome. Yeah, you're literally
you're living the dream and doing what you love with the platform, which is
why the platform is there. So you are absolutely crushing it. It feels
special, like it's like so many like girlies that are like this with me
and it's cool. I mean, Kim was one of them, one of
them, hasn't stopped being one of them, I assume will now be more
one of them than ever before. Wow. Yeah, I feel the energy
in this realm. Something special. Yeah, something special has happened. Allow
you to curse like that something special happen. I know this last everything since
I said that word has been a dream. That's beautiful. I had so
many things on my list for us to talk about today and we didn't talk
about any of them, and I am okay with that. I had a
great conversation. How long have we been doing this an hour. Are you
serious? Yeah, my god, I feel like we just got here.
I mean, we do have a bonus episode to do, but we can
also keep chatting. Was there anything else on your list that you're like,
Oh, I got to talk about this, you know, I gotta be
honest, talking about Metroid and Fortnite after that conversation does not seem important.
I don't mind if it's something you feel like you need to cover. That's
pertinenty. Oh no, I don't care, no, because noroid I know
she's in the suit. She's in the suit's girl. Yeah, she's a
girl gamer the beginning. Yeah, that's true. Right as a child,
I actually didn't know because I found Smash first. I didn't know they were
the same. You know what, me too. Yeah, I played Smash
first and I thought it was just a cool guy in a suit, and
then I found out it was a hot girl in a suit, and it
got a lot better. Wow, I gotta play Thattroid now. I mean,
she's badass. She's one of the coolest Nintendo characters. I mean,
we're I'm okay, we're here. We can talk about it quickly. It
just seems so non important. But the one of the bigger stories I wanted
to talk about that I thought was really interesting is Epic Games who make for
Fortnite. We're in talks with Nintendo. You can pull up the article there
you go to get Samus into Fortnite, Fortnight Fortnite and Mark brownly So that
would have been big style Yeah sorry, ah so yeah, I mean were
they were in talks, they didn't want to let her be in there.
So Nintendo were entertaining the idea of Samus being in Fortnite if that was only
an experience that Nintendo Switch players could have, So if only Switch people playing
Fortnite could get Samus. They didn't want Samus to be anywhere else. This
is something that Nintendo has always done, like not with Fortnite or this,
but not allowing their characters to appear anywhere other than on a Nintendo console.
We have a lot of examples of like games that release everywhere that are also
on Switch will get some exclusive things like start even to Starlink that's the space
one Space one. Yeah, by you'd be soft Yeah, good job.
It's like everywhere, Yeah, you go, like everywhere you go everywhere,
everywhere from New York to Delaware, I thought it was space. Sorry,
it released everywhere but on Switch it had Starffucks in it, and then starff
Fox wasn't anywhere else. So Nintendo said only if you that, but Epic
was like, no, because how would that even work? You buy a
skin on Switch, you go play online, and no one sees the skin,
Like, what would they seelt you wouldn't see it? No, I
thought like, asking, how would that even work? Well, I think
it would just be like you can only get the skin if you're on Switch,
which I think is like a kind of cool idea. Yes, but
they didn't want They didn't want it to appear on other platforms. Strange so
like if you're playing on PlayStation, you could see Samus running around in the
game. They didn't want that. Oh then that's a little weird. See
it is weird. Yeah, I don't think that that would work, and
so it wouldn't work. But so here's here's a question. Out of all
Nintendo's ips. Okay, I get you don't want Mario over there, you
don't want Link over there, you don't want an animal crossing character over there.
You don't really need them to be But Metroid is a really cool ip.
That has always kind of struggled for sales, Like Metroid Dread sold three
million copies and that's been like the best Metroid game that we've had in years,
like literally years. Would there not be an argument to be made that
putting that character in Fortnite could do a lot for its popularity. I mean
maybe, but like Peter Griffin's in Fortnite, and I don't think anybody's running
to watch Family Guy because he's in Fortnite. I was, but I mean
I'm always running to watch Family Guy. But like, I don't know that's
necessarily true. I mean, Family Guy is so popular already that maybe it
wouldn't see a blip. But look at like the Fallout Show, Fallout four
and Fallout games have gone up seventy five hundred percent in player base from people
watching the Fallout Show. If Samus goes into the arguably the most popular game
that is out right now, and all of these kids that play Fortnite and
people that play Fortnite see this new character and think, oh, what game
is that? What game is they're from? Oh I have a switch,
I'll I'll buy Metroid and see. You know, it could be interesting,
But like I understand why they want to be protective of their own stuff,
and it's kind of like, do they need to do that with Metroid Maybe
maybe that's why I'm saying maybe like if anything, like I don't think you
would feel the same way if it was like Mario. Right, no,
if Mario and all of that don't need that publicity, but also would be
really weird to see them. But we are talking about a character that already
shoots and kills things like that's kind of baked into her characters. She's a
badass. Boundary game where Mario has a gun, Yeah, there's Mario and
Rabbits where he has a little blast yea, and Nintendo didn't even make that
game. You'd be so did yet? Yeah, so I don't know.
They should give Mario a gun like a like a smith and western like a
wind chest like an ak. They gave Kirby a gun and forgotten when he
absorbs. Oh really, joker, he gets I mean that gun does shoot
like blue lasers or something. But yeah, it's a gun, you pink
cloud shooting. Yeah, that's true. I can see your point, though,
I think like, yeah, if you're like, oh, I want
this game to be more popular. Why aren't you trying to expose it more?
I can definitely see that point, but I understand. I understand.
I understand as well. But Nintendo have always done things like that, I
feel like to their detriment, Like through the Wiu era, Nintendo wouldn't allow
any content creator to cover their content, like you know how you're making animal
crossing content. Yeah, they used to DMCA. If that was the Wii
era, you wouldn't be allowed to do that, And that was something that
really hurt them because nobody could share their games free publicity. To It's just
like, why are you the only ones doing that? And they let up?
Right, I was on YouTube, not on it, but I was
watching, you were watching. You were a fan? Ye? Yeah,
But they've always done stuff like that, and I feel like this could be
a similar thing. But I mean, it's Fortnite. Who cares, right,
Yeah, we don't even play it. We're not even real gamers.
We don't. We don't play Fortnite, okola duty, I guess not.
What are we not gamers? We probably play like Roomscape in our basement.
Hey no, I don't know. They should just give Mario a gun and
put him a Fortnite. Why not? That would be funny, That would
be great. Did you hear about the new Leaf service closing down? Well,
yeah, they closed down all of the three ds and you online so
you can do local play. I think did you hear about the miscellaneous man's
daughter being upset about it? Miscellaneous man Jeff Gertzman, that's how you pronounce
it. He's an ex Giant bomb or works for Giant bomb or has his
own podcast. He's a pretty big deal. He made a video about his
three year old daughter in tears because they shut the service. Videos notloading.
Oh but the article, the article titled it as father mad at at Nintendo
for shutting down servers, and I think he retweeted it like I'm just a
father now or something like that. But yeah, I'm sorry, I'm not
familiar. But I mean, is she on New Horizons? You know we
need to get the girl switched. You're right, honestly, bad dad not
giving her a switch in the new game. No, it is upsetting to
see the online features shut down for games like because it sucks because when you
buy these games, you're like buying it for that feature as well, and
for them to go away after so many years. It always is kind of
just like, man, what the hell? Yeah, it sucks, So
I'm gonagree it onto that and I think he's right, and yeah she should
cry, Yeah she should cry. Sheerves to cry. Three years old.
Yeah, I know, Well she knows the difference between New Horizon. Just
give her a New Like, I don't really that is true. How invested
was she? Yeah, I don't even know, like at the end of
this game's life, you know. Yeah, New is for real, like
one of the best animal crossing it's so good. And she recognized that,
Yeah, recognize. Yeah, No, I don't know. I think it
sucks. And you know, she's right, she's right. Should get her
on the podcast. We should that would be cool, New Coast say,
I can get her to swear. All right, Well, thanks for coming
in. I appreciate you. Got any more plans while you're in town.
Oh, Nintendo store there, they have a bunch of animal crossing much the
shots kind of suck, but yeah, unless do you like coffee? How
are you with coffee? I love coffee. Oh, you have a lot
of rooster what's his name? Brewster Brewster. They have a lot of Brewster
themes shirts. I want to buy Kim something, and I'm like, buy
an Animal Crossing show, and it's always Brewster shirts. And on the Nintendo
Store in Japan online they have like Animal Crossing New Horizons cookware and like Bento
box. We we went, we went to Japan. Yeah, we went
to Japan and we went to older than Nintendo stores recently, and I don't
think I saw that. I saw the pots and pants and stuff, and
I saw the little Brewster coffee maker that Bob bought. Can I give a
hot take out of like the four Nintendo stores we've been to, the one
in New York and then like I think three in Japan. The New York
one's the best. I agree for real, Yeah, hands down. It
has the most stuff and has the best layout because the way like when we
went to the one in Tokyo or the one in Kyoto where we're just open,
we went to we went to both. So the one in Kyoto,
I think it's just one giant open room and I was expecting it to be
like a little bit better. It was more like an a mall. Wow,
Nintendo, We're like, so we went through like what else is there?
Tokyo? But like nothing else was great Tokyo and Osaka. They opened
Kyoto after we left. Kyoto's actually got one cool thing that I wish we
had got to do. You can buy, uh, you can peace out
a switch with new pots, so you can buy any of the JOYCN colors
they've ever done, and you can picked the two you want and you can
pick the switch. They should just let everyone do that. Ever, Yeah,
I know that would be really cool. You see the new pink ones
they put out. They're so cute, cute, so cute, and I
wanted to buy it with the Princess Peach Showtime Bundle, and I didn't because
I was like, I don't need more joy cons that are going to break.
And then I just bought the game by itself, and now I'm like
double mad. Did you like the game? Yeah? Yeah, uh,
it's just I don't know. Baby game for babies, baby babies. Would
you call it a cozy game? I mean I do play a lot of
baby games for babies. Yeah, nex Stitch, you know, I just
bought that and it's like totally baby sensory video. Love it, though I
might have to play love it. Yeah, when I get them with all
my hand type games, I'll check it out. Yeah, yeah, well,
thank you so much Liz for coming in. It was an absolute joy
and I hope you come back because this was a lot of fun. Are

of want to be on a podcast now, like all of it. Hey,
