We went back to the Iwata Asks archives and discovered some really interesting forgotten stories about the making of the original version of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for the Nintendo 64. It's so interesting to learn more about the history of this game directly from the Nintendo developers as we get closer to the launch of this remake. Hope you enjoy this video!

Also in this episode, Nintendo of America president Devon Pritchard had something to say about Grand Theft Auto 6 and Epic comes out with some interesting updates on how they will be using AI in game development.

    Hello and welcome to episode 243 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! Today, we'll be talking about our hopes (and fears) for The Legend of Zelda movie. We think we're getting very close to getting an actual look at this movie so it's sort of our last chance to talk about this before we finally see this thing. The stakes are really high and we definitely have gone through some highs and lows with this movie already so let's talk about it. Also in this episode, we're deep into Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave and we'll talk about it a bit in a non-spoiler way. We also answer some interesting questions from our Patreon community about Nintendo's recent social media marketing on Fire Emblem and how odd it is. All this and much more is coming right up.

    Hello and welcome to episode 238 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast. It's September which means the game release barrage is coming so today we're going to talk about all the Nintendo Switch 2 (and more) games we'll be playing and the ones we unfortunately will be skipping. Also in this episode, Nintendo Direct watch is once again a big part of our lives and we answer a question about what Nintendo can actually do to make this one a big surprise for everyone. We're catching up on some news since we've been at Gamescom last week so we we're excited to finally discuss the bit Grand Theft Auto 6 gameplay reveal. We also got a very interesting update from Nintendo about new content coming to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Pikmin 3 Deluxe. Why did Nintendo do this now? We're also playing a ton of new games including Orbitals and we got to check out Gears of War E-Day at Gamescom. All this and so much more is coming right up!
