This week on the NXpress Nintendo Podcast, Alex Aldridge joins us to discuss the problems with E3 and Gamescom and whether or not Nintendo should continue to participate in these tradeshows. In our other main event Patrick and Tim review Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, the first installments of the main Pokémon series for the Nintendo Switch and the first games of the main series to be launched in a home console. Before all that, the gang sets aside some time to discuss Octopath Traveller and Mega Man 11. All this and more.

NXpress Nintendo Podcast #150: 'Detective Pikachu' Trailer and 'Diablo III'

Cuddly or creepy? Legitimate video game cinema or heartless or cash-grab? Ryan Reynolds or Danny DeVito? It may only provide a brief glimpse at what's to come, but the first trailer for Detective Pikachu has already inspired so many emotions — hope, trepidation, excitement, apathy, and everything in between. This is especially true for the Nxpress' resident Pokémon fanatic, Tim Maison, who is joined by Patrick and guest Zack Rezac to discuss what the hell is going on in this Who Framed Roger Rabbit-like mystery involving real actors and CGI monsters.
And speaking of Hell, Blizzard released a monster of its own on the Switch with Diablo III. Zack gives us the lowdown, letting us know if this journey into the darkness shines as bright as its colleagues on other consoles. Or perhaps it's even better...?
Before all that, however, the guys talk about what they've been playing, and Patrick follows up last week's positive impressions of Starlink: Battle for Atlas with a full review. For all this and more, have a listen!

This week on the NXpress Nintendo Switch Podcast, we catch up on discussing some recent releases we haven't had time to squeeze into previous episodes including Mutant Football League, an arcade sports football game that mixes dark humor, blood, and gore for a hellishly good time. Given the lack of sports games on Nintendo’s console, it’s a welcome addition — especially since Digital Dreams Entertainment has given Switch owners the Dynasty Edition! We also make time for Bastion, the first game developed by Supergiant Games which went on to win several awards as well as Star Link: Battle for Atlas, Ubisoft's hope to breathe new life into the toys-to-life genre and the Star Fox brand. All this and more!

This week on the NXpress Nintendo Switch Podcast, Goomba Stomp's Indie Games Editor Katrina Lind joins us to discuss the final Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Direct. New fighters, modes, gameplay features, and DLC are just a few things highlighted in the comprehensive video presentation. The gang is all here and we're ready to give you our thoughts about the incentive for fans to pre-purchase the digital version of the game, the new single-player mode and so much more. In addition to all the Smash Bros. news, we also set aside some time to talk about Super Mario Party, Overcooked 2, Bastion and more.
