Just my personal preference, but I would like it better if you front load the podcast with the big or more interesting announcements (e.g. cadence, cuphead) then flow onto the rest, rather than going in order of whatever the direct did. Not sure if others would agree with me though. L&R. Great work as usual.

2019-03-28 10:15:53 +0000 UTCI LOVE LOVE LOVE THE GAMEPLAY SCREEN AT THE BOTTOM! I've been commenting about this for some time, IMO, its a great addition. I love looking at you guys mind you, but it's so nice to have a visual on a game when you know nothing about it. I highly recommend using this method for the other shows as well
2019-03-27 21:36:37 +0000 UTCI really just want the soundtrack for Cadence of Hyrule... I seriously suck at Crypt of the Necrodancer

2019-03-27 18:26:13 +0000 UTCPokemon Conquest is essentially exactly a crossover between Pokemon and Nobunaga's Ambition. That's the most concrete example I could give of an outright Pokemon crossover, but before mystery dungeon was a genre it was also a specific IP, so you could argue the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games are crossovers. You could also make a case for Pokemon Snap, as it was just a Pokemon skin slapped onto a failing project for a photography game that saved the development and led to that iconic title. Most recently, Pokkén Tournament happened, which was basically Pokemon done in a Tekken style. So it isn't completely unprecedented, but Nintendo showing more of a willingness to allow these IP crossovers does in fact have little to do with how The Pokemon Company decides to allow their IP to be used.
