We hope you enjoy the World's Greatest Podcast (about video games). This week we spotlight the June 9, 2026 Nintendo Direct! We shall resume a "normal show" next week. Zelda hype anyone?!?!

They sure did! Whoa, Shuhei! We’ve got a lot to talk about. Stack it up and feel the power of a terrific twosome! Join Tricky and Alex as they discuss, among other things, 007 First Light, Darksiders Warmastered Edition, Gears of War: E-Day, and the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. What’s more, we delve into announcements and trailers from the latest Nintendo Direct, and we lament rumored layoffs at Microsoft’s Xbox studios. As usual, the news is full of surprises. Huh? Is that the gusty sound of the Song of Storms? Must be a windmill hut around here. And if you think that’s all, then you’ve got another thing coming! We hit the high notes, and we hit the low notes, but we’ll always bring the banter. What are you waiting for? Dive in! As always, the opinions fly fast and heavy! Look out for this super-sized show, as the seemingly smallest conversation veers off into a multiverse of chit-chat. Sounds cool, huh? That’s the fancy way of saying “derailment.” And there’s plenty of that to go around! Let’s dance, Heroes of the XMB!

Showcase week breakdowns, Nintendo legal updates, rising hardware costs, current playthroughs, and a retro review of Monster Rancher Battle Card.

Ryan shares his time with Mina the Hollower, while John dives into Killzone Shadow Fall as part of his ongoing backlog adventures. The conversation moves into Nintendo's ongoing legal situation, as new analysis suggests the company may only receive a $30,000 payout in its Pokémon‑related case involving Palworld developer Pocketpair. From there, the guys tackle a broader industry question: whether rising hardware prices are pushing gaming closer to becoming a luxury hobby. The episode then shifts into showcase season, with full rundowns of Summer Game Fest 2026, the Xbox Games Showcase 2026, and the June 2026 Nintendo Direct. John and Ryan highlight the major reveals, announcements, and trailers across all three events, comparing how each platform approached its big summer moment. To wrap things up, the Inflation Deflation Game of the Week takes a retro turn with a look at Monster Rancher Battle Card on the Game Boy Color, as the duo revisits the spin‑off's mechanics, presentation, and current market value.

This week on Nintendo Therapy, we're diving into some of the biggest Nintendo and gaming discussions making the rounds. We talk about the possibilities of the Ocarina of Time remake, Donkey Kong's limited-time event, Xenoblade's bright future, and why Final Fantasy Resonance feels like the direction the series should have taken years ago.We also share our thoughts on the fantastic-looking Pokopia DLC, the surprisingly enjoyable Star Fox demo, and our growing impatience as Duskbloods continues to avoid giving us an official release date beyond an open network test announcement. To wrap things up, we shine a spotlight on the Game Boy classic Bionic Commando and discuss why it's still worth remembering today.What do you think about an Ocarina of Time remake? Are you excited for Duskbloods, Pokopia DLC, or the future of Xenoblade? Let us know in the comments!
