We're very festive this week but we do have to talk about a topic that isn't very jolly and it's all this drama with Nintendo and the competitive Smash community. We've worked closely on this while we were at Nintendo and things are pretty dire. Perhaps it's time for Nintendo to just throw up the white flag and give up trying to control this. We can't jump straight into the unpleasantness so let's ease in with a fun storytime about when we had to steal a Christmas tree to salvage a Nintendo Minute episode about to go awry. We also share our favorite holiday vibe games in our Never A Minute segment. We have a super meaty Games We are Playing segment because we both beat God of War! And of course we answer a handful of questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers. 0:00 - The pink Christmas tree is UP! 10:23 - Stolen Christmas tree saves Nintendo Minute18:37 - Holiday vibe games27:09 - Games we are playing (God of War, Playdate, Pentiment, Vampire Survivors)56:56 - Smash x Nintendo DRAMA (News news news) 1:23:53 - Questions from our Patreon subscribers Thank you to our Super Stars: Aaron Hash, Ben Eichhorn, MaruMayhem, Eigenverse, Jordan Collett, KissMyFlapjack, Mike Chin, Mr. Rogers, RainTech, Roy Eschke, Simon Barrera, Switchingitup_, Sephazon, TheSharkAmongMen, vgmlife, Link The Hero of Winds, Angela Bycroft, TurboChargeNerdFollow Us! https://www.patreon.com/kitandkrystahttps://twitter.com/kitandkrystahttps://www.tiktok.com/@kitandkrystahttps://www.instagram.com/kitandkrysta/http://www.facebook.com/kitandkrysta-Kit & Krysta

We're getting so close to The Game Awards so we have another story to share about the year Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey were both nominated for Game of the Year. Somehow this caused mass panic inside Nintendo but it was certainly an iconic year for the company. We are both deep in God of War so we share our latest thoughts and feelings on the game. In our news section we talk about how Pokemon Scarlet/Violet broke every record imaginable even though the game has some glaring performance issues and discuss what this means for the future of the franchise.

Hi, welcome to Episode 30 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast. We can't believe we're already at this incredible milestone and to do it at a live show with some of you in person was absolutely amazing. This week we share a never before heard story about a wild week we spent with Hideki Kamiya from Platinum Games at a PAX West many years ago. We also answer some of your questions live. It was a great time and thanks to everyone show came out. 0:00 - It's live so let's go 5:25 - Nintendo Storytime - our week with Kamiya-san25:38 - Answering live questions from our amazing PAX audience. Here are the questions asked, in case you have any trouble hearing them!1. What are your thoughts on the PlayStation Vita?2. Being a Nintendo personality probably wasn't in your job description. At what point did you realize that being an internet personality was part of your job, and did you ever meet any resistance to that?3. Would you like to see StreetPass be incorporated into future Nintendo hardware?4. Kit, why don't you like Sonic games?5. When the Nintendo Switch OLED trailer was taken down you explained to us why we shouldn't get our hopes up for a new announcement. What are some signs that might indicate an announcement actually is coming?6. Do you have any insight on how Xenoblade went from being a niche series to a hot mainstay on the Switch?7. (Before this question there is a long anecdote about using a PlayStation Vita for wedding photography). The Switch has been around for five years now and the competition is starting to heat up. What can Nintendo do to remain competitive? 8. If you could have a Zelda movie or TV show, what would you like the story to be based around?9. Would you rather fight three monkeys or a bear?10. I really like my Wii U and have a lot of great memories from my time with that system. Do you have any stories from the early days of the Wii U?11. You have talked about how when you worked at Nintendo you knew about news before it was announced. Now that you aren't at Nintendo, what announcement has made you the most surprised or excited? 12. Will you be making more videos in Animal Crossing?13. What Pokemon Scarlet/Violet starter will be you choosing and who do you want on your team?14. Which Animal Crossing villager is your favorite?15. What are your thoughts on Nintendo's relationship with the competitive Smash community?16. It must be a shock coming from the built-in audience of Nintendo channels to building your own. As a content creator myself, how do you keep your spirits up navigating this change?Special shoutout to our Super Star Patreon subscribers: Aaron Hash, Ben Eichhorn, Dan L, Eigenverse, FromRaulWithLove, Jordan Collett, KissMyFlapjack, Mike Chin, Mr. Rogers, Paul Gale Network, RainTech, Roy Eschke, Simon Barrera, Switchingitup_, Sephazon, TheSharkAmongMen, vgmlife, Maru Mayhem and HertzVoyager!Follow Us! https://www.patreon.com/kitandkrystahttps://twitter.com/kitandkrystahttps://www.tiktok.com/@kitandkrystahttps://www.instagram.com/kitandkrysta/-Kit & Krysta

Today we're talking about something a bit serious and frankly pretty upsetting and that's the recent news stories that have come out about harassment and the poor working conditions for contract workers at Nintendo. We have a few things that we think Nintendo should do immediately to start to get this back on the right track. Our storytime this week is about the sweetest victory in Fortnite but only because we struggled with major tech issues. We also can't believe that it's been 6 months since we started the Kit & Krysta channel and we want to do a little progress report to see how we're doing and also get your thoughts on where we can improve and what other types of content you'd like to see. We go though games we're playing which includes some "emotional damage" from Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and then wrap it up with questions from our wonderful Patreon family.

Hi, welcome to Episode 8 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! We're sure you all heard the news this week that E3 2022 is officially canceled, so we thought we'd share one of our many E3 memories. We've both worked on too many E3s to count (for better or worse) but this particular moment was truly something and might have scarred one of us for life. We also have a very special opportunity for you to ask some questions to Shinichi Kameoka, the developer of EGGLIA: Rebirth. Shinichi Kameoka is a character designer, producer, and director whose art style is as recognizable as the names of the games he’s worked on are revered. His work on the Mana series helped make the games so memorable, and since producing Mother 3, he’s been a vocal advocate of its localization for Western audiences. He’s gone on from Nintendo to found his own company, Brownies, who have recently released their latest title EGGLIA: Rebirth on the Nintendo Switch. We know many of you are huge fans of Mother 3 as well as the Mana series so here's your chance to ask your questions to the man himself. We'll pick 10 questions to ask him and those same 10 people will also get codes for EGGLIA: Rebirth. Ask away! We have this and lots more on today's jam packed show so let's get started, shall we? 0:00 - Let's begin 6:33 - Cursed E3 moment (yikes) 31:29 - Never A Minute - Rapid fire questions 37:39 - Games we are playing 1:02:23 - Newssssssss 1:17:21 - Your questions Follow Us! https://www.patreon.com/kitandkrysta https://twitter.com/kitandkrysta https://www.tiktok.com/@kitandkrysta https://www.instagram.com/kitandkrysta/ -Kit & Krysta
