Sure, we may have recorded before yesterday's Nintendo Direct, but that just means we had more time to talk XCX: DE, read up on the latest MH Wilds news, and get a 10-minute two-minute history lesson on the origins of the Metal Max franchise. https://t.co/9Zxvx75iG3

[8-4 Play @84play]

Enjoy the final pod before we go Wild on the new Monster Hunter with…well, MHW review talk! Also solid chatter on some older and / or semi-obscure Japanese gems because, hey, it’s us. https://t.co/PDM9jWKAV4

The gang runs down PlayStation’s latest State of Play showcase, including Housemarque’s Saros, Monster Hunter Wilds, Shinobi, Sonic Racing, and (dramatic music)…Digimon?

You'll jump outta yo seat for the Dynasty Warriors: Origins impressions and Ninja Gaiden 2 Black / 4 news, but sit back down and buckle the f up for live - that's right, LIVE - (and already outdated) Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket pack openings. https://t.co/LvHES3gwM1

And all it cost us was…everything

'Tis the season for a loosey-goosey-boozy run-down of all the announcements and winners and everything from The Game Awards, including the-one-with-the-guy-who-climbs-on-the-robot-then-the-head-flies-off. Happy holidays!! https://t.co/4PFhItTN33

Ho ho ho, favored listeners: next week we will pre-record our final show of the year, the annual 8-4 Play holiday spectacular—which may or may not be any diff from a normal ep apart from the inclusion of A) a sprinkling of holiday cheer, and B) YOUR QUESTIONS! So fire away! 🎅🏻📥

Lunar 2: Eternal Blue (localization CONTROVERSY!), PC Engine obscurities (the BEST game you NEVER HEARD OF!!), and checking in on Dragon Quest III HD-2D (Gabe's take will SHOCK you!!!) #smashlike #subscribe #hitthebell https://t.co/bnxWiNO24r

[8-4 Play @84play]

Join us as we journey to Aliahan (DQ3 HD-2D Remake), the Soviet Union (Tetris Forever), Hokkaido (To the North), Geoff Keighley’s basement (Game Awards Nominations), and deep Kyoto for more tales from the Nintendo Museum! https://t.co/jK2fEz3msR

All killa no filla: Metaphor, Monster Hunter Wilds, Nintendo Music app, Vampire Survivors' Castlevania DLC, Pokémon TCG Pocket, Switch 2 news and more! https://t.co/c41Ha9cfpL

Rise and shine, kids—Halloween’s on the way, but not before we dabble in first impressions of Silent Hill 2, last (?) impressions of Echoes of Wisdom, and the start of our ongoing coverage of Nintendo’s hot new hardware! (Alarmo, duh.) https://t.co/ter4NXNKdf

[8-4 Play @84play]

The TGS dust has settled and it's back to normal—as in, Nintendo announcing stuff hours after we record. We'll have to hit snooze on the alarm clock chatter, but we can try and keep you awake with thoughts on the new Zelda, Until Dawn, Metaphor, and more! https://t.co/DKeSytuFnC

You take the old (Dragon Slayer, Aria of Sorrow), you take the new (Astro Bot, UFO 50), you speculate and talk some news (PS5 Pro, Palworld litigation, new Switch rumors, etc.)--the podcast life. (repeat) The podcast life~ ♪ https://t.co/2aSeU1HOd9

A news-heavy episode on all the happenings out of Gamescom (ok mostly just Monster Hunter Wilds, 'cause hey, it's us) and extended thoughts on the Nintendo Museum (again, what did you expect?). https://t.co/CFTv0Wo1TT
