This week we want to take a fresh look at Nintendo's variable pricing "policy" for the Switch 2. This has become a meme and a huge joke but Nintendo actually really needs this. Are they putting this into practice at all or was it just all PR spin? Also in this episode, we react to Nintendo suing the US government over tariffs and we've played a ton of Pokemon Pokopia. We want to talk about what we think of the game so far. All this and more is coming right up! 0:00 - Let's-a go! 7:18 - News news news (Nintendo sues the US government, new Xbox, Resident Evil Requiem breaks records, Pragmata is launching early, the cutest Yoshi bobblehead ever) 40:11 - Let's talk about variable pricing 1:14:23 - Games we are playing Patreon shout-outs: - All Hail the Final Boss - Aaron Hash - Thank you Super Stars: MaruMayhem, Eigenverse, Mike Chin, Roy Eschke, vgmlife, Link The Hero of Winds, Angela Bycroft, Thomas O’Rourke, Kyle LeBoeuf, Andrew Youhas, Chilly, krashuri, Master Discord, Travis Torline, EchoLadair, MSMPokeGamer, RBurns, KITT 10K, Adrien, Nafon Clover, TheSharkAmongMen, RainTech, KissMyFlapjack, Paul Gale Network, Cameron, Fredrik Ulf Konradsson, Catsually Nerdy Follow Us! https://www.patreon.com/kitandkrysta https://twitter.com/kitandkrysta https://www.tiktok.com/@kitandkrysta https://www.instagram.com/kitandkrysta/ http://www.facebook.com/kitandkrysta/ https://bsky.app/profile/kitandkrysta.bsky.social -Kit & Krysta
