We have a very special Nintendo storytime to share with you today. Since we just had a Nintendo Direct, we wanted to share the origin story of Nintendo Direct. Some of you may be surprised to find out how it all started and it's wild to think that its humble origins led to what a Nintendo Direct is today. Also in this episode, we're celebrating the launch of Final Fantasy: Rebirth by sharing our top 3 and bottom 3 Final Fantasy games. We also have a lot of news to talk about including our reactions to Mother 3 coming to the Japan NSO but not the US. We are dabbling in a few of the new games and demos that were released after the Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase.
