Mario's Minute

In a world full of scrolling, I'm stopping! Well, at least taking a day here and there to stop doing so. In this episode I talk about planned "Scroll Free Days" I've recently been exercising, and with that has come some pleasantly surprising health related bonuses tied to gaming! The thing that was destined to ruin our brains has been better to me than the information overload algorithm machines. Enjoy some chatter about anti-scrolling measures, more gaming, modding rants, and some new jailbreaking experiences! Please step over the DVDs on the floor, thank you.

You know? I'm going to be honest, I knew Sony already knew going in that announcing PlayStation disc production ending wouldn't go over well, but I don't think they expected people would STILL be talking about this in droves even a month later. So why not join back into the conversation? I've still got stuff to say, and new examples! You will own nothing and like it! Oh, also, while I've got you here... Would you happen to know where my friend's house is? My phone died.

In this episode of "You Will Own Nothing and Like It" I discuss my thoughts around the Kingdom Hearts games releasing natively on Switch 2! Oh, but what about those Cloud Versions of Kingdom Hearts that released on Switch? Gone, gone, just gone, but the paid testers get 50% off the Switch 2 releases! I also discuss the observations I've seen with more people going physical with the Switch 2 and why that might be. Keep listening for a game store story and more!

Mostly a single topic episode here, talking about reactions as well as my thoughts to the recently released game Mixtape. This indie game dropped to incredibly high accolades, with the most notable one being IGN's 10/10 review of it. The same month as Forza Horizon 6 releasing, which also got 10/10 ratings across the board, including from IGN! Is the game that good? Is the review system broken? Well... I guess we have a lot to discuss here about it!

We're going meta for this episode of Mario's Minute! No, not Meta, I mean meta. I didn't ever think we'd get to 100 episodes, not even anywhere close, but here we are! That alone is worth talking about, so that's a large chunk of this episode. This also features a baby squirrel, performative gaming, an alcohol infused game store story, and lots of Grand Theft Auto III.
