Ep 492 - Nintendo has somehow been awarded patents for some laughably common ideas. Meanwhile, we check out the time-bending horror of Cronos, the new Kirby upgrade, and Adventure of Samsara. And of course, we dig deeper into Silksong now that we've had more time to play.

Shawn O'Malley and Daniel Mahncke break down Match Group (ticker: MTCH), a company that operates as part of a duopoly in online dating, owning a number of dating platforms, including Tinder, Match.com, Hinge, OkCupid, and more, with specialized platforms appealing to certain demographics and dating niches. During the Pandemic, the company was a popular growth stock, but as the number of paying users at Tinder has declined, the business has stagnated, and the market has punished it severely. Yet, the company is still quite profitable, yielding a seemingly attractive valuation. In this episode, you'll learn about the unique business behind online dating, why Match is having trouble resonating with Gen Z, how large the TAM is for online dating, the most important things the company is focusing on to reinvigorate Tinder, why Hinge may be the future of Match Group and online dating, and whether Match Group is attractively priced, plus so much more! IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN: 00:00 – Intro 07:24 - What advantages Match Group has in its favor as the world's largest online-dating company 29:05 - About Match's origin story as a spinoff and its executive turnover 35:59 - The biggest structural challenges weighing on Match Group's growth 44:44 - Why the senior dating market may be a growth engine for Match Group 46:50 - How Match Group operates and competes as part of a duopoly with Bumble 47:19 - Why investors are so weary of the online dating industry 01:03:18 - How to think about modeling MTCH's intrinsic value 01:07:28 - Whether Shawn and Daniel add MTCH to their Intrinsic Value Portfolio *Disclaimer: Slight timestamp discrepancies may occur due to podcast platform differences.

FEATURING: Three solid hours talking about the September 12th Nintendo Direct.
Jurandir Filho, Felipe Mesquita, Evandro de Freitas e Bruno Carvalho batem um papo sobre "Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island", um dos jogos mais inventivos e encantadores já criados pela Nintendo. Lançado em 1995 para o Super Nintendo, ele surpreendeu desde o primeiro momento por não seguir a fórmula tradicional estabelecida em "Super Mario World". Em vez de colocar o jogador no controle de Mario, a aventura entrega o protagonismo a Yoshi, com a missão de carregar e proteger o pequeno Baby Mario ao longo de uma jornada repleta de criatividade.Visualmente, o estilo gráfico se distancia do realismo pixelado de muitos títulos da época e aposta em uma estética que lembra desenhos feitos à mão, como se fosse rabiscado com lápis de cor e giz de cera. Isso dá a sensação de estar jogando dentro de um livro infantil ilustrado, algo mágico e atemporal. A jogabilidade também é diferente e inventiva: o sistema de arremesso de ovos cria uma mecânica estratégica e divertida, transformando inimigos derrotados em recursos para avançar e resolver desafios. Ao mesmo tempo, o jogo é cheio de surpresas, como transformações do Yoshi em diferentes veículos e fases que brincam constantemente com a física, a perspectiva e o ritmo.Ele não é apenas uma continuação, mas uma reinvenção ousada, diferente e inesquecível que até hoje é lembrada como uma das maiores obras-primas da Nintendo.Esse é mais um episódio da nossa série Remakes!##- INSIDER | Mês do cliente na Insider!

Number 992Nintendo just had their longest Nintendo Direct ever, and we take an incredibly deep dive into all of it. I don't know that we've ever had such a lengthy, detailed Direct recap as this one! Lots of good, fun, funny and serious conversations. I feel like we're all different people after this episode!
Did Nintendo beat expectations? No. Well, according to Matt. While nothing was BAD in the direct, and plenty was GOOD: Nintendo didn't justify the new system or the cost increases (Tariffs not included). Personally, I was easier to please. Maybe because I know I am not going to buy a Switch 2 for at least a year. We gave the PS5 a year to try and justify itself, I think we need to be fair and give the Switch 2 the same amount of time. Positive side: at least Nintendo is supporting its platform. They have a slate of good games and a large one at that.

This week we welcome Nintendo legend Takaya Imamura, the visionary artist behind F-Zero, Star Fox, and Majora's Mask. We hear some incredible stories from his three decades at Nintendo: from being interviewed by Shigeru Miyamoto, to creating Captain Falcon on a whim, to the wild one-year crunch that gave birth to Majora's Mask. He reveals how a shrine in Kyoto inspired Fox McCloud, why Tingle was born out of pure exhaustion, and the surprising comic book roots of his latest project Omega Six. This chat was recorded live at Retromessa in Norway.

This week on Special Conditions, we step away from the usual gameplay and collecting chatter to honor a community staple—The Grading Authority (TGA). After years of serving the hobby, TGA is officially closing its doors, and with it comes the end of an era in card grading. Adam shares his heartfelt thoughts on what TGA meant to him personally and professionally, from the shows he attended with them to the friendships he made along the way. It's not just about slabs and grades—it's about the people, the stories, and the passion for Pokémon that connected everyone at TGA. Adam opens up about his experiences working alongside them, the lessons he learned, and the emotions that come with saying goodbye. While it's tough to see them go, this episode is as much a celebration of their contributions as it is a farewell. Of course, we still bring the heat with our usual segments—talking about the latest TCG buzz, strategies for the upcoming season, and the art of the game. But at the heart of it all, this episode stands as a tribute to TGA, a company that left a lasting imprint on the Pokémon community. 00:00 – Catching Up & This Week in TCG 04:20 – New Releases & Wild Products Hitting the Market 09:45 – Collector Struggles & Market Surprises 15:30 – Meta Talk & 2026 Rule Changes 22:10 – Strategy Spotlight: Prepping for Events 28:35 – Card Art Favorites & Community Shoutouts 35:50 – Honoring TGA: Impact on the Hobby 43:20 – TGA Memories & Emotional Farewell 57:40 – What's Next: looking forward in the hobby SpecialConditions@PokemonProfessor.com Voicemail, Text, and Picture Line - 732-835-8639 https://linktr.ee/PokemonProfessorNetwork Music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons ▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾ http://instagram.com/GameChops http://twitter.com/GameChops http://soundcloud.com/GameChops http://facebook.com/GameChops http://youtube.com/GameChops http://www.gamechops.com Intro Music Trapped In A Pokéball Dj CUTMAN and Belthesar GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/ http://soundcloud.com/DjCUTMAN http://soundcloud.com/belthesar Break Music He Walk - Furret / Accumula Town Remix Dj Cutman http://soundcloud.com/djcutman http://twitter.com/videogamedj http://youtube.com/djcutman Outro Music Kanto Trainer Battle Mykah GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/ https://soundcloud.com/mykah Hosts Adam Tuttle Justin Keller Pokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2024Pokémon Professor and Special Conditions are not affiliated with Niantic Inc., The Pokémon Company, Game Freak or Nintendo #pokemon #pokemontcg #podcast Learn more about your ad choices.

This week I sat on the couch, turned on the mic, and tried to process the unthinkable. Conservative activist and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk was assassinated at Utah Valley University. He was shot in front of a crowd of 3,000 people while doing what he did best, speaking to a room full of young Americans. The suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was arrested after his own father recognized him in photos and pushed him to turn himself in.I don't agree with everything Charlie Kirk ever said. Most of us didn't. But what happened this week was not politics, it was a human being murdered in broad daylight for having an opinion. That should scare every single one of us.I talk about how social media forced all of us to watch this tragedy unfold in real time, how the country immediately split into categories of support, denial, or celebration, and why celebrating a man's death is one of the lowest things you can do. I had to block a dozen people from my feed this week because they were cheering it on. It's disgusting.We also talk about the dangerous “what ifs” of gun control and the government's already insane overreach. We list out what they've already done in the name of “freedom” while mass shootings continue to rack up daily. At what point do we say enough is enough?But I couldn't end the pod there. We switch gears. We cover the announcement of a new Super Mario Galaxy movie, new Nintendo Switch 2 games, and of course, the wildest reality TV news of the week. Alex Cooper announcing the new Bachelorette live on Call Her Daddy. And yes, it's Taylor from Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. The chaos writes itself. Add in Love is Blind season 9 contestants (including a guy who openly admits to eating his own boogers) and we somehow manage to close this episode on a note of absurdity instead of despair.This episode is equal parts grief, anger, disbelief, and satire. From the assassination of Charlie Kirk, to Nintendo milking us for another $70 Mario remaster, to the Bachelorette going full Mormon swinger scandal, episode 205 is exactly the rollercoaster I promised at the start.

Lured Up Podcast 362 Live Streamed on - 3/9/25 Publish Date - 3/12/25 We think Trainers had a lot more fun celebrating Kanto than they thought they would. With a diverse spawn pool, plenty of fan favorites, and some nice bonuses, it really was a good time. Last weekend we had Mega Sharpedo, which was surprisingly popular, bringing out strong numbers on the ground, with a good helping of Remote Raiders as well. It was a bit nice to only have a single 2-5pm event over the weekend, as it gave us time to recover, prep, and spend time with our families! We hope this is the pacing we see moving forward. Trade Days may be one of the best incentives to IRL play that we have seen in a long time. Who knew that just adding an additional Lucky Trade would motivate people to reach the end of an event and want to keep the gameplay going with a trade session. We are major supporters of this new bonus, and think it will only grow in popularity as Communities build it into their meetup schedules. Nothing better than grabbing some food after an event, talking shop, and banging out 100 trades. There is still a lot of September gameplay left this month with the return of the Psychic Spectacular, Shadow Groudon Raid Weekend and the newly announced Completely Normal event. Even though this Psychic Spectacular is a Taken Over event, the core event has been a staple on the Pokémon GO annual calendar for years. We take a close look at Niantic's blog's for the event over the last few years and how they have changed. From fully detailed spawn lists with images, to just a list, to a now, very shortened list, the community has feelings. For some it is a non-issue, but for others, they feel mistreated, almost assuming Niantic has some malicious intent in removing a few Pokémon from this list. Adam brings up a good point in how this game rarely if ever surprises us. Maybe this is a simple way to add some actual surprise in needing to adventure a bit to get the big picture. Finally, we touch on how some quality of life and interface updates have upset some Trainers online, reminding us that some people will simply be upset at anything and everything.

Cette semaine, on commence par retourner au Vatican dans le premier DLC du très bon Indiana Jones et le Cercle Ancien. L'Ordre des Géants propose une petite escapade animée dans les sous-sols du premier grand niveau. Centré sur les énigmes, il permet de retrouver l'archéologue et de continuer à taper des nazis. On continue avec le jeu incontournable de cette rentrée, Hollow Knight: Silksong. Huit ans après le premier épisode, Team Cherry propose un titre magnifique mais, pour l'instant, très mal équilibré dans sa première partie. On termine avec le retour du gorille de Nintendo dans Donkey Kong Bananza, un titre très abouti de plateforme dans la lignée de Super Mario Odyssey centré sur la destruction à volonté. Pour le rattrapage des jeux de l'été, on expédie rapidement les nouvelles fusillades du robot flic dans RoboCop: Unfinished Business et on s'extasie devant le level design génial de Öoo.Jérémie Kletzkine, dans sa chronique jeux de société, nous parle de Toy Battle.Chapitres :0:00 Intro3:50 Les news36:33 Le com des coms48:33 Indiana Jones, le DLC L'Ordre des Géants1:04:07 La chronique jeux de société :Toy Battle1:09:51 Hollow Knight: Silksong1:43:51 La minute culturelle1:48:47 Donkey Kong Bananza2:09:04 Le rattrapage de l'été : RoboCop: Rogue City - Unfinished Business, Öoo2:19:57 Et quand vous ne jouez pas, vous faites quoi ?Retrouvez toutes les chroniques de jérémie dans le podcast dédié Silence on Joue !

We had to delay almost a week due to life circumstances, but it worked out because Nintendo dropped their largest direct to date right before we recorded. So obviously we talk about that and a bit about some random stuff that happened over the past few weeks. Matt played a bunch of 360 games which he adds to his rankings for us and then I talk all about Hollow Knight Silksong!

In this episode, Mark and Stephen talk about what they are excited about. Lydia deals with a existential crisis about keeping too much stuff. And nobody talks about the full motion video game that Dale made during a Global Game Jam during the topic on video content, where they talked extensively about FMV games. Don't worry! Dale edited this episode and linked the game in the show notes below. ;)Lydia played some Dutch gamesGeharrewar in de Sushi-bar - Board Game GeekPort Royale - Board Game GeekStephen is very excited about Kirby Air Riders.

Fresh off the Best Of Year In Review, the boizz hit the new year running with so many new potential top ten tracks and thus, as the title implies, this episode was packed with tenners."Commission (BGM 1)" from Kaizou Choujin Shubibinman has tenner potential written all over it. Be sure to listen for the cool, bluesy breakdown towards the end of the track. "Ending" from Panorama Cotton
