Time to Switch!

Video Games

This week on the show, it’s all about Nintendo Switch! The console launched just over a week ago, so join Luke, Rachel and Jakob as they discuss the things they love about the new home console/handheld hybrid, along with the issues that have come up since launch. Controllers not syncing? Scratched screens? We try to get to the bottom of it and talk about our own experiences with the Nintendo Switch.

Also, some big reviews this week! Right on topic, Luke gives the verdict on one of the most anticipated games of all time in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. He’s also been putting lots of time into Super Bomberman R for the Switch, while Jakob has been practicing his favourite concoctions in Atelier Firis: The Alchemist and the Mysterious Journey. Don’t miss any of the fun!
