Today we're going to be spotlighting one of our favorite people of all time, Mr. Iwata. We'll tell you why The Super Mario Bros. Movie is actually the culmination of Mr. Iwata's vision for Nintendo that he was championing over 10 years ago. We miss him so much and we're grateful to have known him. We know that seeing the success of the Mario Movie would have made him proud. Also in this episode, we tell you a really fun story about Mr. Miyamoto and his favorite food. It's the end of the first quarter of 2023 so we do a little check in on the games we've played so far and if there is a GOTY contender among them. One of us beat Resident Evil 4 Remake so we go into that in detail in the games we are playing segment. We dig into the news and answer some great questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers. All this and more is coming up. 0:00 - Let's-a go 11:16 - Nintendo Storytime - Mr. Miyamoto loves In N Out (he has good taste) 24:22 - Quarter year GOTY check in 39:14 - Games we are playing 56:18 - News news news + Mr. Iwata's vision discussion 1:23:46 - Questions from our Patreon subscribers Thank you to our Patreon Super Stars tier!
