This week, we’ve hit a bit of a bump with our usual proceedings, but let’s dive right into it. We’re excited to launch deeper into our offers with an in-depth look at Death Wish 4. It’s been slated as part of our introduction, but as always, you can count on RFN to keep things engaging and personal.
Starting off, we spend quite some time allowing new listeners to get acquainted with our voices and names, establishing some familiarity. We also keep everyone posted on Jon’s participation since he’s often a wildcard in terms of attendance. As we move into our segment, NEW BUSINESS is where the action is! Greg kicks things off with a brief update on Mario & Luigi: Brothership before steering us into a discussion on the new Nintendo Switch Online offering: Donkey Kong Land.
James then slides into the spotlight with his insights on the recently-released KUUKYOMI 4: Consider It. It’s fascinating how despite their similarities, these games continue to deliver mindless joy. Guillaume shares his concluding thoughts on Trials of Mana, and let’s just say, it’s a gem well worth your time—and it’s even included in Nintendo’s Black Friday sale. On a less impressive note, he discusses the Amazon series Like a Dragon: Yakuza, which didn’t quite meet his expectations. Meanwhile, Jon has indulged in purchasing Skyrim yet again, this time for the PS5, and he’s finally diving in. He and James also have a detailed discussion about snagging vouchers for the eShop and Xbox Live—a strategic game on its own for them.
After taking a breather, the team gathers to curate a list of eight Nintendo DS games, with each of us picking two, to discuss and choose our game for The Nintendo DS 20th Anniversary Retroactive. Curious to know what made the cut? You’ll have to tune in to find out.
Feed the beast!
