How's it going? Here we are The baby-faced one, Theo Walski What's up yo? I don't know why, but immediately when Jerry introduced himself, I got Barry Manilow like
[00:00:37] Let's get it on I don't know why, I don't know why, but it just does that to me, sir What was it last week or the week before he did his, uh, Let's get it on Remember we were talking ladies man, like a week or two ago, so it was like, yeah Yes, thank you all so much for joining And then, uh, and then our maitre d services, the man with the couch, the man, the myth, the legend, the lion's mane, Jason Bellidio How's it going guys? How's it going? How's it going?
[00:01:06] How's it going? How's it going to be? Yeah, so we got a lot to talk about tonight So let's just get on into it Yes, yes Some opinions And whether or not we were right about things But first, um, you know, last week You got the big win You called it We'll, we'll see Anyways, um, so Last week as we were recording
[00:01:35] News broke That Val Cameron passed And for a lot of us, he makes up our cinema childhood Yes, I grew up on Star Wars, but My first ever movie I saw in theaters was Willow Okay, yeah As we know him as Mad Mardigan Um, and my favorite movie of all time is Top Gun
[00:02:06] Okay You know, and he plays Iceman Um, and once I'm done sharing the screen I actually redid my wall Um, for the podcast for tonight to kind of It's kind of like a little, uh, tip of the hat to him too For Top Gun, but Oh, I remember correctly My first was, uh, Batman Okay Batman Really? Yeah Batman Forever was your first movie in the theaters? No, with Val Kilmer Oh, the first Mine was, uh, actually I'll have to say mine was Top Gun
[00:02:35] And then, then I finally saw an earlier, uh, movie of his It was a comedy It was, um, Top Secret Which is his first ever movie, actually Ah! Oh, gnarly Um, which is a spoof Oh And then he went on to be in, uh, Real Genius Oh, uh, uh, yeah Then, uh, then I think Actually, I think I saw, um, no, no, no I saw that after, uh, Top Secret Yeah Yeah, Real Genius, that was a good movie too And then That was cool
[00:03:03] He was, of course, Jim Morrison in The Doors Yep And which He was in I heard, uh, one of the, one of the bandmates at the time of The Doors that was still alive Or someone very close to them that, that was like, uh, the, the, like, historian for the movie Yes Said that he, he was eerily, like, so much like Jim Morrison and even sounded like him when he sang too
[00:03:30] So he, he always, like, he said, like, that's most likely gonna be his best performance And, uh, yeah You know, he was in, he was in Thunderheart, true romance, but one of his most iconic performances beyond Mad Mardigan and Iceman was as Doc Holliday Oh, yeah
[00:03:48] Oh, yeah
[00:04:18] That was awesome That was awesome Yeah, I don't remember what class we watched What was the subject? I don't remember Gnarly Wow Um, he was Moses in the animated Prince of Egypt Oh, yeah Um, you know, Red Planet, Salt and Sea Um Wonderland was really good Mindhunters was fantastic, which he's only in it for part of it Um, but forever, whoever hasn't heard of that movie, you should go watch if you like psychological thrillers
[00:04:48] Uh, it is basically, he is a teaching the next profilers at Quantico Oh sick And they go out to this site to actually kinda, it's a scenario in which, um, to try and work on the profiling skills But some, one of them is actually a killer and uses the scenario to kill people Good cast Such a great movie Yeah, it was low-key, like a sleeper, really good movie And it turns out like he was in like 20 minutes And here's the cast
[00:05:18] Yeah, he's like 50, but yeah, LL Cool J's in it Christian Slater, Johnny Lee Miller, Katherine Morris Yep Like, it was a good cast Um, you know, um And it was, the movie legitly was really good It was really good, yeah Um, so, his, his career, he went on to be, I didn't know this
[00:05:46] He was the voice of Kit in the Knight Rider reboot Oh, I didn't know that What? He was uncredited Like, no I, I, you know what, it probably would have taken me a bit to notice I only saw the pilot episode, cause it was bad I watched the whole series Yeah Did you really? Oh, I sure did Oh Um Mainly because the, the lead female was super hot Of course I got him Got him right there Anyway, so
[00:06:17] Um That's so great I mean, he went on to have like some smaller parts and stuff And, you know, he's in MacGruber and Uh, one of the animated, you know, video games For Spider-Man Um, of course, you know, he was, uh, voice of Bravo in Planes Which was one of the F-14 Tom Cannon, you know, the fighter jets in the movie Yeah Um, you know, um, of course, and then his career was
[00:06:46] Which I didn't really, I totally forgot he was Bluntman in Jay and the Silent Bob reboot Yeah Like, I totally forgot about that He was so involved, he was awesome Yep But, uh, but then of course, you know, his career got cut short because of cancer You know, he had throat cancer, he battled that quite a bit Um, you know, when they filmed, um, Maverick, which It, it says 2022 on IMDB because that's when it was released, but it was originally filmed back
[00:07:16] Before the start of COVID Yeah So 18 and 19 is where it was filmed And at the time he was really battling throat cancer at that time Couldn't really speak all that much Um, so that's why they had in the movie the whole scene where he's typing out how to communicate Which is how he actually did it to kind of communicate with people while he was dealing with With cancer and You know, he, he went on to recover from cancer And unfortunately, pneumonia took his life
[00:07:46] Um, but for me, you know, Val Kilmer has been there for my, my entire Cinematic childhood Like just growing up with movies Val Kilmer is one of the few And I would say Harrison Ford too But Val Kilmer has been there from the beginning And is part of some of my favorite movies of all time You know, Top Gun and Willow Um, and you know, I love Tombstone Heat Like Heat's famous for itself because if you go watch the
[00:08:14] The original movie versus what the Blu-ray is The Blu-ray, the clouds never move Oh really? They use, so that's how they compress DVDs when I first started Is, um Copy paste Mm So if the clouds were kind of the same Then we go, hey, we're gonna copy from here and paste it here and call it good Um, that's why Laserdisc was so much better But Ultimately, it's It's sad to see him go
[00:08:44] Um, you know what? He, for me As Corny as it may sound He will always be my wingman It just You know, Top Gun has always been my favorite movie Above Star Wars, above Star Trek, above everything else It's always been Top Gun Oh, I mean, obviously dude, like it was your sign off for a while Yep Yeah No, it was Stay Frosty Which was Aliens And that was, um Oh, I thought that was...
[00:09:14] Oh, no That's also said in Top Gun too Stay Frosty? No, it's not I thought it was It is not, sir I thought it was too It's not, sir It's in order to stay alert and everything Huh Hmm It's not in there Maybe not But, anyways But... I just wanted to, you know, pay a little tribute to Val Kilmer though Like, cause he is Oh, yeah He was one of those actors in the home that everybody loved And also one of the last, for quite a while
[00:09:42] I mean, no offense to Clooney, but To me, one of the last, like, good Batmans until we got, um, Bale and Pattinson and some better direction Oh, no, you can absolutely say offense to George Clooney Like, that was a shit Batman I just, you know, I just wanna be, uh, you know, polite, professional Because, you know, uh, but I, he even apologizes Whenever, any con, any con or, like, fan type of thing
[00:10:12] Like, I guess he just, out of the blue, would just, oh, and by the way, I'm very sorry about Batman Yeah Just wanna get out there, I'm done with it, you know And I think that's why Man, that sucks, but Now I'm kinda curious, just because we bring that up And that he, I apologize for it I'm wondering at those cons, that you know, that you can ask questions I wonder if anybody's ever asked a question If the nipples on Batman are actually modeled after his nipples That's weird, dude That's a little weird
[00:10:41] It's like, you know, all over the chest and everything But you know what though? Turn the temperature down, get him a little pointy, you know I think if you do some digging Jason, you know what though? It's not a weird question Someone might have asked that Coming from con, you know, con goers Like, there's been some weird stuff So, um, yeah But yeah, that's why, yeah Jason, does it make you question our friendship just a little bit? Nah, it doesn't make me question it It's just like, yo man, it's kind of a It makes me question your choice in Batman
[00:11:10] A pinpoint detail, it's kinda like Like, what else do you think about? But, let's be fair though Joel Schumacher is roasted for that All over the place by putting, you know, the whole thing He put nipples on Batman Like... Well, I mean, he even Like, he got hit for forever Even with Kilmer Yeah Kilmer was the... Kilmer and I would like, the cast was like the redeeming quality of the movie
[00:11:39] They can already see You know, the hints of like It was getting a little slapsticky and like corny But it was still like a... It was still a good Batman movie It did well And like... See what they have Here This may be a hot take But I thought Kidman ruined that Batman forever I thought she was god awful Uh, you're not wrong She was... I mean, here in this, you know, here is Val Kilmer
[00:12:08] Yeah This is the first of the Schumacher suits You know Putting nipples on Batman Just... No At least that was a little less... I mean, like, you kinda hide it They're subtle Close to the pic But they're very less subtle in Batman and Robin Yeah Like, bad I mean, there was a lot of things that ruined Batman forever I mean, he did get... The movie did get criticized heavily I mean, especially like the nipples came up All that
[00:12:37] But, uh... No, it was still successful and it was still like... You know what? It was still a decent... It was still a good Batman movie But, uh... You know, it... Dude... A lot of people saw the cracks Jim Carrey's Riddler is... Still one of my favorites Just like Heath Ledger's Joker Like, it is... Hands down one of the best villain And then Danny DeVito as Penguin Like, they... Those three nailed all their roles Um... So yeah, so let's...
[00:13:05] I thought Tommy Lee as Two-Face was good too I was... I thought it was decent Although, like... I think he did well with what he was given But I feel like he was written horribly Yeah... I don't think he had a lot of... He didn't really have a lot of screen time I mean... I think he was the most expensive You might as well flip a coin between Who was given worse roles I mean, Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze Or Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Face Like, they were both written horribly
[00:13:35] Because that... At least Tommy... Tommy sold it At least he had that talent With Arnold, I'm sorry, at the time No, he needed way more help Sorry, Arnold So let's... That movie was bad Let's talk about this Switch Two Switch Two There it is So... For those that are just listening to the podcast Head on over to Nintendo.com
[00:14:03] We're just going over the Switch Two website That they've put out Now, I want to preface this This... This is kind of sort of changing Minute by minute On this, you know... Right now, they're not doing Pro-Rators Which we'll cover here in a second I wouldn't be surprised if the release date Gets changed... Yeah... For the states, and we'll cover over why I think that's what's being deliberated right now Correct And that's why we're still seeing the same date
[00:14:33] I think you're right Yeah, I think we're gonna... And then... Jerry, then watch my original... My original prediction come true Push it back to August Yeah, yeah Oh my God Anyways, so... We've found a lot of news about the Switch Two That is gonna be the same thickness As the original Switch We're gonna get... It's gonna be a bigger screen that's 1080p It's an LCD versus an OLED But...
[00:15:03] The dock is gonna be capable of doing 4K While that... For... For specific games For games that are Switch 2 games And whatever That support it, yeah It's gonna have support for HDR VRR And frame rates up to 120 frames per second You know, we got to see the new Joy-Cons As well And they're just magnetic And they have just a little release on the back
[00:15:32] That just pops them right on off You know, they started things off with a Mario Kart World Which we'll talk about here in a second But... This is what I wanna... Like, one of the big things I think is huge And the Switch has been very, very lacking That's dope We don't need the app anymore Right We're getting chat right off the system As well as a camera feature Which allows you to share What you're playing In the group chat
[00:16:01] With everybody else doing video as well Mhm And it doesn't necessarily have to be a game Like that everybody else is playing, right? Yeah You can just do your video and everything Which I think is huge You know, the camera's not All that bad looking It gives you a base on it The nice thing is So we know that's what the C button is On the controller as well Is the chat feature So it goes right into your chat It is They...
[00:16:31] Nintendo Switch Online membership Is gonna be required to do those features But it's required now To use the chat You know, on the app anyways Right I'm curious how well It's executed From a UI perspective In a UX perspective On the software side Because they only showed like How it looks Not necessarily how you get there So I was just kind of I'm interested to see How well they executed that Yep
[00:17:01] Now they are saying is They're gonna have their camera But you're gonna be able to use USB-C Compatible cameras As well So if you don't like That option that they're giving You can go with another option as well I'm gonna throw on my Elgato face cam, man But yeah, so if you look at the new Switch 2 Pro Controller It's got the C right there Right? So you just hit it for chat
[00:17:32] So we've got the new dock The new dock itself is going to have Fan on the back of it now to keep it cooler Which it's gonna have to if you're pushing Oh sweet! Yeah, if you're pushing that Yeah, so right here you can see where it's got the fan for cooling Cool On the back of it Of course it's just gonna hook right on up to your TV Like you would anything else So via the HDMI
[00:18:02] The new stand allows you to drop it down further Very happy about Yep, it's freely adjustable It will have two USB-C ports on it One on the top, one on the bottom So it'll make charging a little bit easier on the go Right? You know, for charging it If you're wanting to play and charge at the same time There's your Joy-Con So it literally just locks right on in
[00:18:32] Which and I like that It's in I don't know the technical term But it's an electronic magnet Like it is electrically charged So you do have to It will hold strong And it won't release until you press the release button Which is nice Each of the Joy-Cons is gonna have mouse capabilities Which at the Switch 2 experiences that they were having across the country
[00:18:59] People were showing a demo of Metroid Prime 4 Using one as the mouse mode Which is her arm cannon Yeah Actually, quite a few influencers got to do a Lengthy test And like test with like Even with the accessories and stuff And yeah, some of the footage was with the Well they did show in the The Showcase
[00:19:27] Was exactly what I talked about before Was wanting And be able to point and shoot with one When it has a mouse And use the analog stick with the other So I mean They're thinking things pretty well So I'm happy with that So the Switch 2 is gonna be Is gonna come with 256 gig On board Which is the Switches only have 32 gig Yep Yep You're gonna You're gonna
[00:19:57] It's a specific Micro SD Express card That you're gonna be able to That you have to get to do the expansion on it So your old SD card from your original Switch Is not going to work Because it's a different Type of memory Well, if it's the ones that you specifically bought With like that were Nintendo themed or whatever Because they only did a certain style But the model that they're saying now Has been available for a while Oh yeah, it has But if you, you know, bought the original micro SD card, right?
[00:20:26] It's not just gonna work It has to be An Express card Yep Ooh The games are gonna be Same The nice benefit for the games now too is Is that When you're playing a Switch 2 game For multiplayer And it is compatible You'll be able to play one system With the game cartridge in it And other systems will be able to play off of your system
[00:20:55] Not needing a cartridge Yes, I think that's awesome Yeah You only need one game in order to play with all of your friends Now is that if people are in the same vicinity? Like if they want to play together? It doesn't have to be the same room I thought it could be online Yeah, I thought it was online That's why I wanted to do that That's what it looked like they were doing it in the same room though I'm pretty sure it was online Yeah So he gets online capability But we'll find out In addition, Switch 2 maybe Sorry, I was thinking about that I wanted to like
[00:21:24] I didn't want to deep dive into that but No, so that's a good question Like, I thought that was What we were thinking about was like We'll throw down a monopoly, man That's what I was thinking Like, do we all have to be Or dude, like Oh, we can keep this a regular thing And... Yep Yeah I mean at this point Don't all of us already own monopoly? Yeah So... Maybe, I think so Yeah So it's not like we don't need it Yeah, I don't see where they were talking
[00:21:53] They talked specifically about that So... So when we look at the games, right? You've got Mario Kart World This one is going to be Launching at $80 We've been playing Most games for the Switch have been $60 Tears of the Kingdom was $70 It looks like now it's going to be Mario Kart World is going to be $80 And some of the other games are going to be $70 Well, isn't there an asterisk with that?
[00:22:23] That it's $80 for digital $80 for physical Yeah Is it $90 for... No I'm pretty sure it's $90 for physical I thought it was... I thought it was $80 for physical And it was less for digital Yeah I'm going to look at it Yeah, yeah Anyways, so upside with Mario Kart is It's going to add on the ability to Free roam So you can go wherever you want to Cool I'll wait Yeah
[00:22:52] You say that until peer pressure will get you No, I really will wait Well, no This is not a game I absolutely have to have I love Mario Kart But... Plus, the whole launch line was very disappointing So we're going to get a new Donkey Kong Bonanza That's not even launch That's like a month or two July 17th Yeah It comes out a month A little bit of a month after the
[00:23:20] What's tagged as the initial release date You've got Metro Prime 4 is getting a Switch 2 edition You got Kirby Air Riders Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment Which basically this takes place Before all that crap hits the fan In Hyrule You've got Dragon Drive Which uses the Joy-Cons as mouse To basically simulate
[00:23:49] Basically having to use your wheelchair For a game of basketball Which I think is an amazing thing That actually from accessibility standpoint That they are making a game like that Yeah So people can understand what it's like To actually be in a wheelchair Now you also This is the one I think we can probably all agree with I hope nobody buys this I hope nobody buys this Switch 2 Welcome Tour They announced during the presentation This was going to be a paid game It's a tutorial It's not really a game It's tutorials
[00:24:20] Yeah I can't agree with this Especially since we got Astro's Playroom As a tech demo Exactly For the DualSense controller At the very least For the PS5 rather How much Are they really going to Give tutorials on That are interactive for this Rather than just like going through Correct A lack of a better term In the game So
[00:24:47] So here's other games That they gave us During the presentation You had Borderlands 4 Is going to be launching On the Switch 2 When it launches for everything else You're getting Hades 2 Split Fiction Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition And that was also tested at that At the Influencer Correct A lot of people were saying Like it was It was looking pretty good
[00:25:16] We're getting Street Fighter 6 Final Fantasy 7 Remake Integrate Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster Some of those are some serious games Yeah Hogwarts Legacy 2 Sid Meier's Civilization 7 Elden Ring That's the multiplayer version The Tarnished Edition Which is That's going to be coming Enter the Gungeon 2 Yakuza 0
[00:25:45] Project 007 Hitman Star Wars Outlaws Dammit X Monarchy Deltarune Survival Kids Starseekers So these are some Pretty good I'm not going to lie Third party support Based on everybody Streaming I've gotten a lot more Curiosity on Split Fiction Yes I've been really thinking about Checking that out I might wait and just Get that for the Switch 2 And
[00:26:16] They're Now we're getting Switch 2 Edition games We talked about Breath of the Wild Tears of the Kingdom Metroid Mario Party Kirby So They give the example Mario Party Jamboree Which during it They said Gives you mouse controls You can do chat with it Game Share Here it is Game Share Compatibility for local multiplayer So this is what we were talking about With sharing the one game With other people
[00:26:45] So this one specifically states It's local multiplayer only So you have to be in the vicinity In the vicinity Right Okay At least At least same Wi-Fi network Yeah Breath of the Wild is You know getting The Zelda Notes Game specific service On the Nintendo Switch app So it's going to let you have Like notes and stuff on there Faster load times HDR support Same thing for Tears of the Kingdom Now they did say You are able to upgrade the games
[00:27:14] If you already own them To the Switch 2 editions However they haven't mentioned How much the cost Is going to be for that That's digitally right? Not physically It's digitally Now that being said PlayStation has kind of Already set the bar That if they're going to do An upgrade over an existing title It's running like 10 bucks So anything above $10 For the upgrade I'm going to mark that As kind of a You know A knock against Nintendo If they charge more for the upgrade Right?
[00:27:44] And when are those two coming out? They haven't said They haven't said When they're doing them You're getting the Switch 2 edition Of the 28th So actually So the The actual Switch 2 editions Jerry June 5th Oh launch At launch You're supposed to be able To get those So Kirby Is getting a Switch 2 edition And Pokemon ZA Will have a Switch 2 edition As well as just a standard Switch edition When it launches
[00:28:13] Later this year Dope Now The one thing I wanted to bring up is And this is something we've talked about With physical media Right? Is that They've already specifically said Some physical games Are going to be available As a game key card Which you insert the game key card To download the full game to your system And you can play the game By starting it like a standard physical game But you still require Insertion of the physical
[00:28:42] After you download The physical card to play it Yep Which is what I've been You know we've been talking about before Is that They took a page out of Sony's book Which Physical media So with Discs for The Playstation With the Xbox And everything like that They're basically the license key That's pretty much all it is You know There's no difference between The download and the physical Other than the physical Has the key right there On it So they've kind of talked about it Where
[00:29:13] On the box It's going to say Game key card So you're going to have to pay attention When you get a game For that And they say Specifically after it's downloaded You can play the game By inserting the card into the system Starting it up Here's what it's going to look like You know how it works You insert the card Download the game And then you play the game So I'm not a fan of this It's like make it one or the other Either make it so the game is right there On the cartridge
[00:29:43] Now is that going to be for every game Or is that for select games? So far select games Select games But I mean like With what we know about how well The game cartridges have done for Switch Like that makes me think Like how big are the games really going to be To where they're leaning towards Not putting it on the cartridge It could be Specifically for like These triple-A games that are Massive for some reason
[00:30:14] Because I mean like You can fit only so much storage On those little cartridges I would imagine not much more Than a disc these days At least with a Blu-ray Or something like that So I mean maybe But still So to that point What huge game are you going to put On a 1080p Type of So NBA 2K NBA 2K And Resident Evil I don't remember which one Of the Resident Evils it was You basically
[00:30:43] Part of it was on the cartridge And the rest was It was a download But here's my thing is Is that These games that are specific Game key cards Right? You lose your cartridge You're screwed Yep Is it broken? Bye! Whereas at least with my digital game I can play it I don't need any Game key card I still want physical But here's the thing though Is okay Yeah granted You lose the cartridge As a physical
[00:31:12] You have to go get yourself A new game But in this case I'm going to put it out there Right now How much you want to bet That one of the first games That is game key only If they decide to put it On the system Is Call of Duty Probably That's not a bad guess That's a pretty That's a good guess But here's my problem with this Is that You have the game Like installed On your system
[00:31:41] You can't play that game Without that cartridge So if you lose the game key You're going to have to go out And buy the game And it's still sitting on your system That's the only downside I hate to this If the game itself Was just cartridge itself Yeah And if you lost it Same thing Same thing But you know That's the chance Yes except for It's not sitting on your system Like fully installed Going high And taunting you Taunting you Saying you know Yeah but I mean
[00:32:10] If you can't If you can't keep track Of where your games are I mean I'm not going to lie You kind of deserve it a little Yeah That's on you That's on you That's on you boo And that's also To the degree That the acceptance That we have to accept And going physical We like going physical Yeah If we lose our game We understand that Yeah we understand I would love them I would love them If they took it a step further And had a backup plan To where they're like If it's a A game key card And you lose it
[00:32:40] Or break it or anything But you have like Your receipt Or it's registered For warranty Or whatever That you can get a replacement That'd be cool Because it's just a license key But that doesn't sound like Nintendo though Yeah I'm good It's true If you're gonna be able to trade it back in though That's an interesting one Oh yeah That's a good point I'm guessing the game key card You're probably not I think you could Because you can't You can't transfer it Or I mean like Duplicate it or anything The thing is Keys And this is where I think
[00:33:09] The ones that are game key cards Are not gonna have trade in value Because it is a licensing agreement Between you And the developer And they're They're not supposed to be transferable Hmm So Anyway So they are gonna get the update For the switch to app It's gonna get Zelda notes Sweet Um And then Um Switch online
[00:33:37] Is going to be getting an upgrade This is one thing I didn't see on their website Um Here it is Okay So you're getting GameCube Um Which I'm kinda pissed at Nintendo Because they're going the The Mario 64 route with this Instead of giving us Um Wind Waker On the switch They're putting it on On to switch online Hmm
[00:34:07] Which I mean I'm fine with But my biggest gripe with it having Would've been GameCube online That it's specifically Only to switch to Yeah Like it's an online service And it's partly An expansion of a current online service on switch Mmhmm Why can't you have it on both? Correct But we're getting Wind Waker For it which God just give it to me on the switch Like I get it You wanna do Yeah I want to do something for switch 2 specifically
[00:34:36] I want to do physical But I'd rather You ain't getting it Jerry Give me Give me Wind Waker and Twilight You're getting Soul Calibur 2 Which is Gonna have the version with Link In it Um Cause if you remember back in the day When it originally came out You had Link In the Nintendo version Um There was one specific for Xbox And there was one specific for PlayStation Oh yeah You had Kratos And someone else And the Xbox Was you know Vader and Yoda I think Yeah Something like that But Yeah Um
[00:35:06] You're getting F-Zero GX Which is one of my I love Oh sweet F-Zero Um It's gonna be multiplayer too So you'll be able to do multiplayer online with F-Zero Which is gonna be A whole lot of fun Um Now With this I think now that they're putting Wind Waker on this I think this is where Metro Prime 2 Remaster You know ends up going to
[00:35:36] The Switch 2 You know The GameCube online service Um I don't know what they're gonna do with Metroid Prime 3 Because that was a A Wii Exclusive title But you're gonna get Path of Radiance is coming Mario Sunshine Pokemon XT Super Mario Strikeser Uh Striker's the original Luigi's Mansion I've seen one picture That's the original Animal Crossing Didn't Sunshine Already get re-released on the Switch? It was released on a cartridge Yeah the All-Stars It was three Yeah Sunshine Mario 64
[00:36:05] And it was Uh Sunshine and Galaxy Yeah Um Now the other thing that's gonna take place Is that they are gonna be releasing A GameCube specific controller Like they have for Yeah Nintendo Super Nintendo N64 Genesis Um That's gonna be available only to This one has the chat button Yes Now it is going to be Uh On the website It's gonna be one Per account So So Regardless if
[00:36:35] Wait say that again What? So for instance This is their Their kind of way of Of uh Uh Minimizing the bots I have two of these Right? Okay And I was able to order two of them From the From the store Um This time around What they're gonna do is The GameCube controller Specifically They're gonna limit it to An order of one Per Account And I think it's the limit You know How many people are just Buying them all up And then throwing them onto Ebay and And whatnot Um
[00:37:04] For resellers and bots And stuff like that For me I'm not Getting the Switch 2 at launch But I will go buy one of these At launch Just so I can get a hold of it Because For a while The Super Nintendo controllers Weren't available The N64 controllers Weren't available Now they are Um So Now Um According to this Um
[00:37:33] Switch Online Plus expansion members Playing on Switch 2 Will soon Gain access to upgrade packs For both Zelda games At no cost As part of Being The The The expansion pack subscription Members I think that's big Because I got the DLC for Mario or For Mario Kart and for Animal Crossing that way So Um Now This is Now Let's get to the The nitty gritty So we do know that
[00:38:02] Originally they announced that The The Switch 2 itself Was gonna be $450 Which is what I predicted Last week's episode And then it was gonna There's gonna be a $500 bundle Um That'll come with Mario Kart And the system Um So you'll save like $30 bucks that way Um Now here's the problem is Is that originally Pre-orders were supposed to go Start tomorrow Uh April 9th Yep Nintendo put out a A press release Um It was supposed to be April 9th?
[00:38:32] I thought it was supposed to be May 8th It was So May 8th is when you could do it through The store So there's two steps here, right? So there's This specifically April 9th was gonna be the pre-orders At Best Buy, GameStop, whatever, right? Yeah Now, they've stated that Pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 In the U.S. will not start On April 9th In order to assess the potential impact Of tariffs And evolving market conditions Nintendo will update timing At a later date
[00:39:00] The launch date of June 5th, 2025 Is unchanged Now Since then This hit And that it's now gonna hit Canada as well Nintendo of Canada has decided to match The Nintendo of America And wait on the pre-orders until a later time Okay So Hold on a second Hiyo Yeah, so it looks like we're probably gonna have to wait
[00:39:29] And see What Canada I mean, it makes sense that You know, them as a company would be unified And Deciding on what the next move is Do you guys Do you guys think It's Do you guys think it's gonna get a price A price hike? It is It's gonna stay the same? So, here's the thing is So Effective tonight Midnight in the U.S. Unless something changes
[00:39:59] Anything being imported from China Is gonna have 104% tariff Also Also along with that Anything coming from Vietnam Is a 43 or 46% tariff Okay Those are Nintendo Produces them in China But they also are producing Them in Vietnam So if you just go off the ones that come from Vietnam Coming to the States, right? You're still seeing 43, 46% hike So let's just round up and say 50% Just to make it easy on the math, right?
[00:40:29] So if you have something that's gonna cost $450 And you're gonna have a 50% tariff on that Guess what? That price is now going up $225 So now the base switch is going to be $675 The bundle is now gonna be $750 Yeah, is there? Yeah So at this moment, that's why Nintendo is kind of going We don't know what's going on with these tariffs We're not gonna do pre-orders
[00:40:56] Because they can't pre-order something at $450 When the price to import them For Nintendo of America Is gonna add on Yeah, because I mean If they put the pre-orders out They'd have to live to their word Keep to their word and be like No, I pre-ordered it for $450 Exactly Yeah, I mean So Nintendo is doing the right thing here Yeah To cover their butts Because, you know, then they'd be looking at Taking a 50% hit on, you know On your bottom line for each of those systems
[00:41:25] That you sell at the MSRP, right? Now, Theo, this is what you were talking about With May 8th Okay, so You have the ability to go in And register your Interest As a Switch Online member For one of the The setups So I did the bundle just because Right? Now they are gonna be limiting scalpers online To be able to To do anything through Nintendo Because there are requirements
[00:41:56] Thank goodness So I actually really love that they did this I do I do love that they did this So first and foremost Is you have to be a Nintendo account holder In the US and Canada At least 18 The first batch of invitations Will go out on May 8th So this is where the May 8th They were coming into play With additional batches of invitation emails Sent periodically until purchasing On my Nintendo store Is opened to everybody Initial invitation emails Will be delivered on a First come first serve basis
[00:42:25] To eligible registrants Who meet the Priority criteria Invitees will have 72 hours From the time when the email is sent To complete said purchase After that They lose out Priority requirements are as followed As of 4-2-2025 You must be Must have been the one who purchased Any Nintendo Switch Online membership You must have paid any Nintendo Or any paid Nintendo Switch Online membership For a minimum of 12 months
[00:42:54] And you must have opted in to share gameplay data And have at least 50 hours of total gameplay hours I think that's big You know, it keeps the scalpers away Because chances are none of those scalpers Have even met any of those requirements Picked it up Yeah You know So Ultimately the way I look at it is this I am holding off at launch Mostly because I've got a big You know A big life change coming on You know The middle of the You know, middle of the summer
[00:43:24] Looking at the end of July Right? So With the tariffs to knock To cut out $1,000 Out of my budget for that That's huge I'm not going to be able to do that So it's going to have to wait So Unfortunately Nintendo's just being a victim Of Of the craziness that's going on On here in the States, right? It's just Tariff half tariff against everybody It's going to make all goods go up
[00:43:54] So I absolutely understand Nintendo Saying they're not going to do pre-order And like we talked about earlier I'm going to say it now I think they moved the release date I don't think they moved Really? I don't think they do They're going to be Like I said November The Well, I mean Mine was August We had a September We had October and November, right? But Ultimately, I think they moved it out of
[00:44:23] I took September Just because Jerry was Yeah On top of double dipping No November Double dipping But Okay I do think that Oh weird In the If these tariffs stay in place As they're What's being reported I don't see how in June You can release that In the States At a $650 price tag That's also why I'm waiting Because at that point, right?
[00:44:53] Any PlayStations that are currently In the US at that moment Are going to be sold at $400 You know, an Xbox is going to be cheaper A Switch A standard Switch is going to be cheaper Most people Are not going to have Enough disposable income To drop $1,000 Right Right at the start To get Pro controllers The camera A game The system And you got to think Those controllers
[00:45:22] Those accessories Depending on where those are manufactured Those are going to go up in price too Like I don't know where The The Switch Pro controllers Manufactured But say it's made in China If it's made in China It's going to have a 100% increase Right now A Pro controller is what? $70? So all of a sudden That Pro controller is going to be $140 Case in point Oh wait
[00:45:52] The Super Nintendo controller I just looked at the back of it It says made in China Ooh Which means That That's going to go up in price So everything is literally going to go up in price And I think this is probably It's It's unfortunate That they're launching it now They had no idea When they planned this all out That These tariffs were going to hit Yeah You know So Ultimately
[00:46:22] At the end of the day Forget when When you would buy it Right? Whether at launch Down the road or anything like that Are you getting a Switch 2? Uh Yeah Yeah I'll eventually get one Eventually It'll be just like me Where I got there to Switch One Like maybe two years after it came out So I mean Didn't you get it after the re-release? Yeah I think you did The 1.2 version or whatever Yeah
[00:46:51] So I'm not in a rush to get it There's not going to be any massive games Where it's like Oh I need to add this day one Like please No No No You already know my thoughts on the launch line I was I was already disappointed Yeah I would say I was I wasn't thrilled Right? We didn't have a It wasn't a super strong one But it had more It had stronger third party of support This time around than the Switch Yeah, but that was all dressing
[00:47:21] Like once again Like they could They could have had a strong launch line To at least To at least And especially now To help with sales Or urge people to like Oh dude I'm going to think about it Because I want to get that game At least You know what I mean? See for me I'll I want Metroid Prime 4 Yeah, so you're willing to wait I'm going to get it on the Switch Yeah, you can totally wait I'm going to get it on the Switch Or get it on the Switch And wait And then I'll upgrade later Wait even longer Yeah, I'll upgrade later There's no launch line That entices people
[00:47:50] That like Mario Kart Like no No, that's a good That's a good portion Of their fans But no No, you know I'm fine with what I have Like right now I'm good with holding off On getting the Switch too Like until For a little bit I'll eventually get one For sure But I'm not going to pay Inflation Or the The tariff on it I'm not going to I'm not going to go Spend $650 on something That's
[00:48:19] Should only be $450 Right? You know At that rate I might as well just go Online and pay scalper prices At that point No Not even that It's just Again Yes, you'll have Mario Kart On launch But I mean What else Are you going to play? Like It's going to be the full Xbox experience At start Like I mean granted Yes Nintendo does always have Good lineup For Their launch Their launch
[00:48:49] System So you don't have to like Dive too deep But I mean once you beat Those games I mean you're going to be Sitting for how long? I'd be honest Jay Like honestly What You answer the question You asked the question What am I going to play? At launch If I were to pick one up At launch You know where I'll be? I'll be in the game Virtual console Playing Wind Waker Yeah see That's where I'll be Right? Outside of that Everything else is On the Switch So It's kind of like
[00:49:19] Like Eh You know Yeah I think That's why the general consensus On why I think we'll all wait Yeah And just And also It just seems like The smarter play To wait and see What is going to happen Especially I mean It's tomorrow So I mean We'll see You know We'll find out I think Nintendo is doing The smartest thing As a business And waiting To figure it out You're right
[00:49:48] It is definitely unfortunate For Nintendo Especially like I mean This is the Switch 2 This was supposed to be Their big launch This feels like Honestly This is supposed to be The next iteration You know And it's It's kind of Getting a lackluster You know Response I think Because of all of the Fear And The political bullshit Yeah And the political side Of things Which It kind of takes away It feels like It kind of take away From the launch This feels like 2020 With the PS5 And the Xbox
[00:50:17] And COVID Right They had these planned And then COVID happened Right And all of a sudden That upended all their plans You know I think it's the same thing With the PS5 And the And the The current Xbox Right And the XS generation So Yeah Yeah So anyways Real quick As we close things out And kind of get back to What we've been playing And whatnot I need to do a collector corner Because it showed up today As a surprise Theo
