Me on yesterday’s @RandomNintendo episode: Nintendo could release a Metroid Prime 4 overview trailer. Nintendo today: Here’s a Metroid Prime 4 overview trailer. Samus and I, we’ve got our psychic abilities on lock (and the game’s looking good!).


Two cool things we learned about #PokemonPokopia today: 1. GameShare! Being able to beam co-op from Switch 2 to Switch 1 is a great way to bring in folks who bought a Switch just for Animal Crossing but would love this too (i.e. my wife). 2. This guy, Mosslax.

Randomer Nintendo 75 is a wholesome one, we swear! We go hands-on with Kirby Air Riders and talk Predator: Badlands, IT: Wecome to Derry, Pluribus, Good Fortune, Pixar's Win or Lose, Nintendo financials, and more. randomnintendo.com/2025/11/13/ran…


My reaction to all the 3D Mario game references in the Super Mario Galaxy Movie trailer. It may be named after Galaxy, but it looks like it’s going to be a love letter to Mario’s modern era (Wonder included!) in the same way so much of the first was to classic Mario.

Surely nothing bad will come out of combining the online Pokemon discourse with the Game Key Card discourse. nintendolife.com/news/2025/11/p…


I’m sure the Super Mario Galaxy Movie will be packed with fan service, but even debuting the trailer on the anniversary of the original game’s US release? Chef’s kiss. Chef Toad’s kiss, actually. Look who snuck into that promo art!

City Trial in the #KirbyAirRiders test run feels like how I imagine a first time playing Smash Bros. would -- if that first time were an eight-player match with items cranked all the way up.


A Predator movie that’s actually kind of wholesome may sound like a leap, but like with this billboard I saw, Badlands nails it. #PredatorBadlands

The #Pluribus premiere is great, even though it REALLY recontextualizes the donuts that Vince Gilligan and Rhea Seehorn were giving away outside Comic-Con.

Metroid Prime 4 in a new Switch 2 holiday commercial vs. Metroid Prime 3 in a Wii E3 2006 montage. The more things change, the more Metroid showing off a new Nintendo control scheme stays the same.


Having full play history since 2011 in the new Nintendo Store app is cool, but what do you mean I spent 5+ hours watching Nintendo Video’s Dinosaur Office shorts and 3D B.o.B music videos on my 3DS? Or opened Wii U’s TVii guide nine more times than probably anyone else on Earth?

Nintendo raised their fiscal year Switch 2 sales forecast by 26% (15m > 19m) while cutting Switch 1’s by 11%. Maybe we should’ve seen it coming after the years of pent-up hype, but this gen is coming in hot. Like, “Switch 2 just sold 10 million units in only four months” hot.

You can pinpoint the exact moment the room full of family I was with witnessed that catch in the bottom of the ninth. Congrats, Dodgers! #WorldSeries

I told myself I wouldn’t say this… My bad puns are better than this… But you know what? I just got my first Ice Pikmin in #PikminBloom and that’s… pretty cool.


Closest I’m getting to a Halloween costume this year is three weeks ago when a vespa tour had me looking like a pit crew Toad from Mario Kart.

Fun to see how Animal Crossing’s new update pulls from across the series. The original’s retro Nintendo games, New Leaf’s megaphone, Happy Home Designer’s room creation, Resetti resetting things again, even Lego’s partnership. It's a big Animal criss-Crossing, if you will. #ACNH
