The Famicast 294 - THE EPISODE TO LISTEN TO WHILE YOU UPDATE YOUR FIRMWARE
The podcast is back and on Switch 2 Launch Eve, no less! While none of the crew have a Switch 2 at the time of the recording, the guys take this episode to take a look back on the Nintendo Switch 1 - the Japan only preview event at Tokyo Big Sight, the days leading up to launch and the launch itself. After taking a trip down memory lane, it's time to take a look at what games and/or features have pushed the guys over the edge, in getting a Switch 2. Or in the case of Ty, what is going to make him want to get one. After diving into some Anime Trash, the guys close out the show. 00:00:00 Intro00:02:49 Switch 1 Retrospective - The Lead Up00:23:16 Switch 1 Retrospective - Launch00:31:19 Switch 1 Retrospective - Switch Get & Most Played00:45:02 Now Playing at TheFamicast.com00:48:00 Switch 1 Retrospective - Feedback & The Future of Switch 201:25:15 OutroThank you so much for subscribing, listening and for your support!
