Yesterday, Nintendo finally stepped forward with its first full Nintendo Direct in over a year. It was great to see so many announcements jam-packed in a 50-minute presentation. Though I won’t cover everything here, I will highlight a few trailers that really caught my attention!
During these uncertain times, one of the best things we can do to protect ourselves and others is to wear a mask. There’s no shortage of evidence out there that show how effective they are. I’ve been wearing a mask for months now and I agree with my government’s laws around masks in public spaces.
But don’t just follow my lead. You can be just like these star video game characters who also wear masks!
With 2020 officially upon us, now is a great time to start fresh! We have a bunch of new items making their debut in the game room, including three new Pokemon plushies, art from Paris, the debut issue of a popular X-Men hero, and more!
It’s Hotel Hell, minus Gordon Ramsay! What was supposed to be a wonderful vacation for Luigi and company turns into a nightmare when the staff reveals their true colours. Join Luigi and I as we save Professor E. Gadd and unlock Luigi’s sticky sidekick!

This is it! From Turtle Rock to the egg, we close out our Link’s Awakening adventure! Before we close the door on Koholint Island, we talk about Luigi’s Mansion 3, our Christmas wish lists, and end the stream with a round of anime video game show and tell!

From getting a key ocarina song, to completing Eagle Tower, to entering Turtle Rock, we got a lot done during this Link’s Awakening stream! Along the way, we talk about games we’d take with us to a desert island, the evolution of libraries, do some Wii show and tell, and learn the story of how a new friend found my channel in the a rather unique way!
I get tripped up pretty bad through the Face Shrine, but we manage to make it through eventually! All the while, we talk about the upcoming EGLX game convention, share some of our favourite content creators, and do a little bit of Halloween-themed board game show and tell!
Over 25 years after its original release on the Game Boy, The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening was given a fresh coat of paint on the Nintendo Switch. Thanks to the benefits of modern graphics and user-experience improvements, this stellar game received a well-deserved second wind.
While Link’s Awakening is the most dramatic glow-up for a Zelda game yet, Nintendo has already polished up a number of franchises previous entries. So far, we’ve received remasters of Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask, Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess. Here are a few more that I think are deserving of a remake or remaster!
Where’d the start of the dungeon go? After rage quitting the stream, I come back and finish off the next two dungeons in our Link’s Awakening adventure! Along the way, we talk about Heavy Rain and the rise of modern adventure games, Overwatch on Switch, the developers of the Mario and Luigi series going bankrupt, and more!
After the Bottle Grotto, Link gears up with the Pegasus Boots, an Ocarina, and the Angler Key! Now if only I could find the key hole that opens the dungeon…
I know where it is now and it drives me nuts that I couldn’t find it while on stream! Next time! While we venture through Koholint Island, we discuss the weirdness of video game review scores, dreams, and some show & tell with original spray paint art and Amiibo figures!
