Chris Brandrick // Hanafuda Report Final Fantasy XIV coming to Switch 2 in August Imran Khan // Restart.run Gamers sue Nintendo, demanding the company give any tariff refunds back to consumers — I’m not sure what the mechanism for success here would be, but it’s an interesting early move all the same. Chris Brandrick // Hanafuda Report PREVIEW Yoshi and the Mysterious Book begs curiosity from its players — “it’s taking a page out of some of Nintendo’s newer catalog of exploratory games. It’s putting the focus a bit more on experimentation and exploration“. Also, worth reading for the Shy Guy ‘Hanks’ anecdote. Restart.run Nintendo and Spotify Bring Nostalgia with New ‘Super Mario Galaxy’ Playlists — We’ve been asking for Nintendo music on streaming services for years. Nintendo Music went some way to scratch that itch, and now there’s this. It’s a limited time only thing though, as part of the movie promotion, but I can’t help but wishfully think it’s an experiment of sorts for wider availability. 🤞 I’m an Apple Music user though, so I’ll have to stick to Nintendo Music for my ‘cosmic Mario beats to work to’ for now. Spotify Miyamoto says he was surprised Mario Galaxy movie reviews were even harsher than the first — …ok.

Tomas Franzese // Remastered Father of man who inspired Super Mario was also named Luigi, researcher finds — Turns out the Seattle warehouse owner’s dad was named Luigi. Ramon Antonio Vargas // The Guardian REVIEW Vampire Crawlers Peter Glagowski // Nintendo Wire ▶ So you made Star Fox popular. Now what? John Rairdin // Nintendo World Report Mother 3 turns 20. Nintendo fans are still waiting on an official English localization Reece Heather // Nintendo Wire New Pokémon Snap’s legacy is more important than ever Josh Broadwell // Polygon Why do we think Mario and Luigi are from Brooklyn? Drew Mackie // Thrilling Tales of Old Video Games Disco Elysium and the myth of the male loneliness epidemic Madisyn Parisi // Mothership ▶ I turned the Game Boy Color into a watch LeggoMyFroggo // YouTube Sorry I haven’t posted about Pokémon champions lately, I knocked my Switch 2 into the bath — Oh no… — I’m mainly sharing this as One More Catch is a relatively new site covering Pokemon that you may want on your radar.
