This week on Podcasting With Power, we’re talking about the Nintendo games we want to love… but just can’t seem to care about. Whether it’s a long-running franchise or a cult classic, sometimes a game just doesn’t click, and that’s okay! We break down why certain Nintendo titles miss the mark for us, and whether we think we’re alone in feeling this way.

Plus, we cover the shadowdrop of Xenoblade Chronicles X's Switch 2 Edition, recap every Switch and Switch 2 announcement from PlayStation’s State of Play, and react to the very charming Hatching Yoshi toy coming soon!

This week on Podcasting With Power, we’re diving into Nintendo’s long history with sports games, from the all-time classics to modern experiments! Fresh off the launch of Mario Tennis Fever, we ask the big question: does Nintendo still have its sports magic? We break down what has worked, what hasn’t, and what it might take to win us back.

We also react to the latest Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase and rapidfire through all of the stories we missed while Zachary was sick. Plus, we look at early impressions of Pokopia, and round up reviews for Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass, Reanimal, and Mario Tennis Fever!
