This was an excellent story time you guys. 10/10! 🥳 Can't wait for all the new content the Japan trip will give us all.

Just noticed how small this comment section is. Thank you guys so much for your commentary each week! I just recently started working as a delivery driver, and while music can be great, it doesn't always take you far when it repeats. I decided to try out podcasts and you guys have definitely helped me get through some shifts throughout these past couple of weeks. It's been cool to listen in and hear about you guy's work experiences as well as your personal opinions on current and older video games! Keep up the good work and have fun in Japan! ❤ Can't wait to finish AstroBot myself, listening in has also encouraged me to purchase it and it's been a wonderful experience! :)

The worst street in Japan is safer than most streets in America lol.

These are facts. Every time somebody tells me it's a 'bad part of town' when I'm over there exploring, I laugh because the worst thing I see is a single homeless person who is still more respectful than the average person here in America. I definitely did go to some places where there were an abundance of tattooed people, who I assume were mostly Yakuza but again, as long as you aren't disruptive you're fine. I never felt unsafe anywhere over there, and I've been to most places in the greater Tokyo area, Kyoto area, a lot of Osaka, Nagoya, Hiroshima and even as far south as Shunan.

@@Mithos05 I literally saw a Yakuza when walking around Kabukicho (the irl inspiration for Kamurocho in the Yakuza games). A man was harrassing a woman and the yakuza showed up and threatened his ass to let go. Was wild seeing one in person. Then when he turned to look at me, I noped the heck out of there lmao.

I’ve been to NCL, and I understand why someone said it was a rougher part of town , though I agree it’s an overblown feeling. That part of Kyoto looks like a Detroit, like a failing American city. It’s much more car-centric (there’s even a double drive thru McDonalds behind the building lol). And all the buildings look ruined and rusted like an abandon Japanese seaside town, but you remember it’s Kyoto. There are lots of gas stations around the neighborhood, and a Porsche dealer (prob because of Nintendo). Intelligent Systems is like a block or two to the west of them too. Weird vibe over there than what you think of with Kyoto.

Regarding difficulty in Nintendo games, often times the most challenging aspects come after you beat the main game. A couple of Legend of Zelda games feature a master mode or hero mode. Mario games contain levels that can get spicy after you do the main stuff.

as someone that used to work for a big FAANG company owned buy an asian parent company its so fascinating to hear about what the internal workings and offices of Nintendo are like. I've always been fascinated by the differences In work culture between East vs. West, and even the differences in Korean, Japanese, Chinese work cultures in tech and/or the gaming industry as whole.

In general I think the Monday filming schedule is a big problem for this podcast. A lot of gaming news happens on Tuesdays. Every episode feels way behind on the news due to this. I love the podcast though but a switch to filming on Tuesdays would be a vast improvement.

I live near Washington DC and we have a Cherry Blossom festival (and cherry blossom trees) all over (gifted from Japan)! We try to make a trip to see them in full bloom each year, and it does get crowded. I'm sure it's not as extravagant as Japan's though 😅

My favorite Capcom series is Breath of Fire, and I am still holding out for a return, or at minimum a remaster/port of 3 & 4 to modern Nintendo console. Again, like most times I ask for something like this, I personally do not need any QoL changes. Just getting the games would be more than enough for me. As far as your Japan/TGS trip, I am curious if you guys would be fortunate enough, assuming NDA of course, will get permission to see New Nintendo stuff. Obviously, you would not be able to vlog that. Hope you guys have a ton of fun. Thank you for the video.

The irony about your Splatoon 3 disinterest is that I felt like Splatoon 2 was *really* the one that was too similar to the original, which Splatoon 3 seemed like a larger step forward *especially* for the campaign which had a new villain, unique story, more fun overworld, and thrilling ending sequence.

@trainzelda1428 2 ай бұрын

Yeah, Splatoon 2 felt like they *had* to make a new one for a new console, while Splatoon 3 felt like it was packed with new ideas

What the heck kind of people did you have working at your office for lunch meetings? That's wild haha. I had lunch meetings once a week every week for the 6 years I worked at my previous company and people were always clean, respectful and mindful. I wonder if it's just the difference between a corporate job and a private company? My biggest issue was that we were asked to give up our break for the sake of, essentially, more work. The worst thing about that is it's totally illegal to do that in California, but so many do it anyway thanks to the way companies will passive-aggressively demean you for not participating. It's the worst. :(

With all the serum commercials on TV, Kit doesn’t know what it is? It’s a cosmetic liquid that you apply to your skin after cleaning it that is absorbed into the skin to hydrate it and minimize acne and other skin conditions. And they are advertised constantly.
