The Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave Direct showed us a ton about the upcoming strategy RPG, and it also teased a huge twist about its setup. Join Logan Plant, Peer Schneider, and Nick Limon as they react to what we saw of the combat, dungeons, characters, and upgrade systems surrounding the Heroic Games. Then, hear our theory about how the “true protagonist” Eshmel plays into things, and how Fortune’s Weave could be borrowing from Breath of the Wild in one key way. In the news, the panel discusses Pokemon Pokopia’s DLC, the Zelda movie’s casting news, and three new NSO games, including Mario Sunshine and an awesome pair of unreleased Virtual Boy games. It’s also everyone’s favorite time of the quarter, as Nintendo’s latest financial report reveals new information about Switch 2’s sales figures, as well as updates on numbers for Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, and a huge debut for Tomodachi Life. Finally, Peer and Nick share their impressions of Splatoon Raiders, and Logan talks about his deep dive into the endgame.
