Nintendo Week

Join Alex, Ben, and Colin this week as we discuss tons of recent Pokémon news, including a chaotic mess surrounding Pokémon GO and tons of new information about the Pokémon in Sun and Moon. Afterwards we introduce a new segment called "Dream Land," where we share our hopes and dreams for new Alolan Pokémon like Gengar, Marowak, and tons more.

This week we’ve got some of your favorite segments, as we’re gonna hit up The News Block, Fortune Street, The Gossip Stone, and the Lightning Round. Tons of news has been happening lately, including a live-action Pokémon movie, new Sun and Moon info, Metroid, Zelda, Sonic, Animal Crossing, New IPs, and for once some real NX news, so that’s what’s in store for this week’s show. This week's outro music is an arrangement of Pokémon GO's map theme, by Marioverhrer.

Join Alex, Ben, and Colin this week for a mini episode of Nintendo Week all about the newly-announced NES Classics Edition. We cover the news of the console and our impressions, followed by a few discussions about the role it can play in the marketplace as Nintendo prepares to launch NX, the future of this "Classics" line with SNES and Game Boy, and whether it should have been able to connect to the eShop or Virtual Console in some way. And by popular demand, Nintendo Week now has a Facebook group! Search for "Nintendo Week Fun Club" to join the three of us and the rest of the community in polls, games, discussions about the podcast's future, and more.
