Los muchachos "casi" juntos de nuevo! Otra semanita de mucho pero mucho gaming con la salida de Ghost of Yotei y Hades 2, Doug Bowser se retira de Nintendo, Arc Raiders tiene un server slam y salen noticias nuevas Pokemon. Se ta' jugando! 

The gang talks about selling out and hiring fuckable personal chefs after a Saudi Arabian company buys EA. We also chat about Doug Bowser stepping down at Nintendo and being replaced by DEH-VAWN, our top 5 metroidvanias, HADES MOTHERFUCKING TWO, and Silent Hill F. We also hear Greg's final thoughts on Hollow Knight and Aaron's final thoughts on Shinobi.

We have an update about the game preservation story from last episode with some more context on why this might not be as big of a disaster as we first claimed. EA was rumored to be going private by being purchased by several investors representing Saudi Arabia. (This was confirmed the day after we recorded this episode.) Doug Bowser announced his retirement as the President of Nintendo of America. Microsoft has announced that there is yet another price increase on Xbox consoles thanks to "macroeconomic conditions." Then we talk to Rob about the music festival I went to last week and how I'm too out of shape to attend music festivals.

In Episode 783: Bowser steps down, EA goes private, Game Pass gets more expensive, and GBA gets new classics!

Show Notes On this week's podcast, Dan and Kris board the SAG Cartoon Express for Battletoads. How in the heck did this one go so wrong? The Battletoads are actually awful children? The Dark Queen is incredibly stupid? There's a giant pink phallus? This cartoon is weird. Next, in Week Old News, there's a whole heck of a lot going on, including a new State of Play with the first bloody footage of Wolverine. It's very bloody. Plus, Doug Bowser retires, DK Bananza's strange watermelon connection, EA might go private, Pokemon gets its Lucha Libre on, and more! Finally in the checkpoint, Dan prepares for some construction, while Kris accidentally runs for 5 miles because he's bad at geography. Plus, Kris finishes Ninja Gaiden Ragebound, while Dan promises to finish Death Stranding 2. Will he do it? Time will tell! Enjoy!

Today we'll be digging into the actual job of the Nintendo of America president. Ever since the announcement of Doug Bowser's retirement and the new president Devon Pritchard taking the reins at Nintendo, there seems to be some confusion around what the Nintendo of America president actually does and what kind of power this person has. We're here to clear it all up for you and squash some of the rumors flying around. Also in this episode, we're playing a ton of new games on Nintendo Switch 2 and we dig into all the news coming out of Tokyo Game Show. We also try to make sense of this big EA news of them selling and going private. What does this all mean? We wrap it all up with questions from our amazing Patreon community.

One Battle After Another, is what I should rename this podcast, because the movie was that good, and a full review is inside. Plus Xbox takes another self imposed L, Sony gives itself a gold medal, and EA goes private. The Simpsons are headed back to the big screen, and an AI "actress" has Hollywood in a fervor. Plus Forza Horizon is finally headed to the land of the Rising Sun, and Ubisoft gives Assassin's Creed a new home.

We go game-by-game through the September 2025 State of play and analyze EA being purchased by Saudi Arabia and Doug Bowser stepping down as Nintendo president! Plus, reviews of Final Fantasy Tactics and Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds!

We have a jam-packed episode filled with industry news this week, among them being the fact that we are completely inundated with new game releases. Your hosts get philosophical (and a bit political!) as we cover this new phenomenon and try to map out what this means for the future of video games as a medium. We also cover all the Nintendo and gaming news such as Doug Bowser stepping down as the president of Nintendo of America, updates for Mario Kart World, GBA Nintendo Classics, and Drag x Drive, the huge right-wing and Saudi Arabian buyout of EA and much more. As always, we close with the games we've been playing.

Meanwhile, Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser announces his retirement, and EA is at the center of a shocking $55 billion buyout deal.

Just when you think it may be a great week to celebrate games, here comes a huge gaming business deal that has the potential to change the fortunes of a major gaming publisher. Announced on Monday, EA was taken private for $55 billion by the Saudi Arabia Private Investment Fund and two other private investment firms. Sean and Marc discuss what this could mean for EA, its employees, and could some of EA's big franchises could go down in the wake of this. There was a major gaming convention this weekend in the Tokyo Game Show, which featured a State of Play from PlayStation, a TGS Showcase from Xbox, Annapurna Interactive having a mini showcase, a PC Gaming showcase, and much more. The duo discusses their favorite announcements from some of the shows. Plus, Sean and Marc have both been playing Hades 2, Marc's been playing Silent Hill F, the Xbox ROG Ally & Xbox ROG Ally X have official prices and already sold out in many places, Doug Bowser is retiring at Nintendo, and another developer talks Game Key Cards, and more on this edition of Video Games 2 the MAX.

Number 994Doug Bowser is bowing out, and of course we've got a lot to say about it. There's also a ton of encouraging Switch 2 news coming from big-name third parties, which is exciting in multiple ways. There's also a very sensitive discussion in there concerning the Pokemon Co. and "world events," so consider this your warning. Mom Brain and I tackle all that and SO much more in what turned out to be a pretty darn good episode...we hope!
