Today, we'll be sharing with you a fond memory we both have of Satoru Iwata. We were so lucky to have worked under Mr. Iwata when we were at Nintendo and it might surprise you how often we got to see Mr. Iwata. He was consistently in our office and we spent a lot of time one-on-one with him. One of the many wonderful things about Mr. Iwata was he would not only talk to us about the Nintendo business but he would often share with us his own life philosophies. We learned so much from him and we still hold his lessons near and dear to our hearts to this day. Also in this episode, we react to the latest round of Switch 2 rumors and we share our impressions of the latest round of indie games that have come out on Nintendo Switch. We wrap it all up with some great questions from our Patreon subscribers. All this and much more is coming right up! 0:00 - May Spoilercast revealed! 15:41 - The most important advice Mr. Iwata ever gave us 35:42 - Drafting our dream Nintendo 64 games into NSO 49:48 - Games we are playing (Another Crab's Treasure, Surmount, Eiyuiden Chronicle, Wario Land 4) 1:14:04 - News news news (Switch 2 rumors, Paper Mario TTYD framerate, no Blizzcon in 2024) 1:33:20 - Questions from our Patreon subscribers Patreon shout-outs! - All Hail the Final Boss - Aaron Hash - Thank you Superstars - Ben Eichhorn, MaruMayhem, Eigenverse, KissMyFlapjack, Mike Chin, Roy Eschke, Switchingitup_, vgmlife, Link The Hero of Winds, Angela Bycroft, Thomas O’Rourke, Kyle LeBoeuf, Roberto Nieves, Fredrik Ulf Konradsson, Andrew Youhas, Chilly, Brustache Follow Us! https://www.patreon.com/kitandkrysta https://twitter.com/kitandkrysta https://www.tiktok.com/@kitandkrysta https://www.instagram.com/kitandkrysta/ http://www.facebook.com/kitandkrysta/ -Kit & Krysta
