0:00Today in the nerdy news you need to know about Nintendo has announced a direct for Friday. Nintendo's also got a Pokemon patents that's continuing to get crazy and blessing is played little nightmares three. We'll have all this in more because this is kind of funny games daily.

0:23What's up everybody. Welcome to kind of funny games daily for Wednesday, September September 10th, 2025. I'm one of your hosts, Greg Miller, alongside Forbes 30 Under 30, a.k.a. New York Game Awards nominated, a.k.a. the Blue Blur. Blessing at Aoye Jr.

0:44Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Good day, Greg. How's it going? It's good. How are you? I'm doing well. Haven't done a show with you in quite some time. Yeah, I was going to say, it feels like it's been, man, at least a week and a half. Exactly. How's the week been? I've been good. The week's been good. I've enjoyed having you back in the office. i enjoy hearing you on the content and seeing you out there doing all your stuff we haven't talked talked because i'm on a show then you're on a show and vice versa yeah but it's good to see you i missed anything in the last week i know hollow knight silk song came out yeah are you playing where are we at with that i i talked about this a little bit yesterday i picked it up uh because i wasn't gonna play it actually i my plan was i i didn't like the first hollow night really and so i'm just gonna skip this one and then it was roger barrett and andy that looked at me and they were like no you'd like this one you should try it out at least so i played about the first 10 minutes of it i want to get back to it but as people know we're juggling video games review season's happening but my goal even if i don't like fully dive into silk song in the next few weeks yeah my goal is to have it is to at least dive deep into it before end of the year before game of the year season oh yeah okay good good good what about you are you playing you're playing oh yeah i was on the review i did i are you liking so i love silks on really i love really man i know it's crazy it's crazy i'm blown away this game's got the stuff man this game's got this stuff and that's i think that's the thing that gets me excited is knowing how tim felt about the original hollow knight and like even knowing that it felt like even though hollow knight was a big phenomenon it also at the same time felt very specific as far as like you got a gamer it appealed to yeah exactly right like you kind of have to have the taste for it this one seems like it's casting a wider net and getting more people in which gets me excited to try it out again it's interesting i know we talk about it occasionally with something like a gta or whatever big sony first party release but I think even beyond that beyond it's interesting to see all of our friends have this moment where you open up blue sky right and Instagram or whatever and it is all sorts of people that I usually don't see BS about the same game BS about the same game like Rebecca Valentine being all about Silksong and having all these things up along with the football Janet's all over it and then it is the extreme it is Barrett it is Andy it's this for me it's like seeing wider social media adopt it right like being on my TikTok algorithm and of course my algorithm is my algorithm so it's gonna be but even then like the amount of silksong clips that i see and then seeing the well i saw like a screenshot that showed it had like hundreds of thousands of concurrence like 400 000 or something like that which feels insane for a 2d metroidvania i think that's the especially crazy thing about it is like it's not a battle royale it's not a you know third person action sony game it's not a you know fucking counter-strike it's a 2D Metroidvania.

3:20Blessing Adeoye Jr.:We talk about even Metroid, right? Metroid being maybe the best example, the biggest example of a Metroidvania, being like, ah, but Nintendo doesn't look at that as a seller, but it's like a nice fan-favorite franchise, so they keep it in vogue. The fact that Hollow Knight is doing gangbusters, and it's an indie game that took its time to release and had a very small team, that's very heartwarming. I love seeing that. 100%, yeah. It's a special time right now to be out there. I wish I could be playing it right now, but once we did the review then it was back to redacted yeah i'm back in the redacted minds when i get out of this redacted mind i'm into the ghost of yote minds and then we'll continue on that's crazy that ghost of yote is in the original redacted you can say what it is you if they were very clear you can say you have it of course provided by playstation so you know what i mean yeah i'm i haven't even started it it's installed but i need to get started it i i if i'm reviewing a game i'm reviewing that game i don't like jumping around and doing it yeah that's i mean i'm the same way but it's the season where i am like i'm in ghost of yote but also there's another game but i'm like you're on that one you and roger redacted on that yes yeah we're all we're all playing we're all just passing around these redacteds yeah busy busy time busy time everybody and it's only gonna get more busy because this is kind of funny games daily each and every weekday we run you through the nerdy video game news you need to know about live on twitch.tv slash kind of funny games youtube.com slash kind of funny games podcast services around the globe if you like that of course please pick up a membership you can get a kind of funny membership on patreon.com slash kind of funny youtube.com slash kind of funny games apple or spotify of course you would get all of our shows ad free you'd get good karma for supporting a small independent 11 person business and you'd get your daily dose of mate greg miller in a series we call greg way that's 15 to 20 minutes of solo podcasting each and every day however no bucks toss our way no big deal watch live as we record the show on twitch.tv slash kind of funny games youtube.com slash kind of funny games podcast services around the globe and of course be YouTube super chatting.

7:38The broadcast will begin at 6am pacific time and will run for roughly a whole hour. As for what's being included in the stream, Nintendo has yet to confirm, but seeing as it's taking place just one day before the 40th birthday of the Super Mario Bros. series, it wouldn't be a shock to see some plumber related news. For context, a similar showcase took place to mark the 35th anniversary of the original Super Mario and included Super Mario 3D World Bowser's Fury and the limited release of Super Mario 3D All-Stars Mario Kart Live Home Circuit and a Super Mario Brothers game and watch. Oh my god, the dog's still out.

8:13I didn't put him in his bag. Forgot about that. I heard him jingle over like, oh, Cole's still out there. The door's closed. He must be flipping out. Friday is coming. We will be doing this. We will be reacting and I can confirm that we are so hyped about this. We are so ready for this. We believe this could be a big one because as IGN deals pointed out on BS, The rumored September direct is not surprisingly a reality at 60 minutes in length. It's on par with the April 2025 direct officially revealing the Nintendo switch to we are going to react to this one live. You know, we've fallen into this rhythm lately of making you wait.

8:51You can watch it whenever you want to. We come into the office. We watch it at 10 a.m. When our programming day usually starts. We feel like this is a big one. This seems like a big one about the future of Nintendo. What's going on this Mario anniversary, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. so we said we will all sacrifice our sleep and we will be here live 550 for a pre-show a.m into i'm excited the reaction oh yeah of course into the games cast post show into our games daily into a stream i assume and then we can go home early blessing greg why are you excited i mean

9:19Blessing Adeoye Jr.:i'm excited because i really like nintendo games you know i'm excited because there's so much to i think expect and look forward to uh when we're so early on in the switch to life cycle it feels like right now the world is our oyster it comes back to when the ps5 and xbox series x first came out and i think it was tim that talked about the phases of the playstation and yeah yeah you're like oh man all right it feels like we're past phase one like what is that phase two slate of games gonna look like and then we didn't really get a phase two but i think there was the anticipation there was the hype right and like hype needs to be managed carefully hype can get out of control i think there's so many things to talk about when it comes to hype and excitement for upcoming video games that said when it comes to nintendo i'm like i expect things i expect that sometime this generation we're gonna get a new 3d mario or a new mario sports game or a new zelda or a new kirby or a new xyz thing and i when we're this early in the generation i have no choice but to be excited for whatever that that thing could be my here's my question for you back to the tim getty's marvel phase conversation that never came to be with playstation yeah i do believe that Switch still thinks of phases and does want it to be.

10:28We've had a banger first year here of Switch 2. Let's go out on a high note. Obviously, my prediction with a bullet for number one is, hey, here's the release date for Metroid. Oh, yeah. Either it is this year or we are giving you something and it's going to be February 2026. Anyways, I believe we get that. I believe we look ahead. How much of this is Mario anniversary coded.

10:54Blessing Adeoye Jr.:See, that's what I'm very fascinated about. I don't think it's going to be entirely Mario anniversary, right? I don't even think an hour? Yeah, it's an hour.

11:06Blessing Adeoye Jr.:I want to say 10 minutes. I think you get like 10 minutes worth of Mario-focused stuff. And it's going to be varying degrees. Like, I wrote down some predictions for the Mario side of it, and I've organized these predictions by low hype, medium hype, high hype, an impossible hype it's the blessing four finger scale it's the blessing four finger scales of nintendo hype so starting with my low hype as far as mario stuff that i think could be at nintendo direct right i think a galaxy 2 port would be exciting and like somewhat reasonable to expect right i don't i'm not i'm not saying it's gonna be there i'm not saying like oh damn that's a slam dunk you're gonna see it but i think when we look back at the last big anniversary and you see 3d all-stars yeah the one game that wasn't in 3d all-stars was mario galaxy 2 that felt weird how does this fit for you over on the super chats the one the only kebabs wrote in and said super mario galaxy 2 is added to 3d all-stars via dlc but 3d all-stars itself is not reissued also isn't it weird don't be dumb hey throw up the wnds in chat don't be dumb like if nintendo announced that i'm looking at nintendo and i'm like you're being dumb right now this is even a weird nintendo decision that's just a dumb nintendo decision i think it's an interesting idea that yeah they put out galaxy and they they put up the game again with that in there honestly yeah the idea of reissuing it would be so fucking dope yeah like release galaxy 2 was dlc but yeah you can actually buy 3d all-stars again but you have three months again so we're taking it back off the store um another one i'll throw in there mario movie 2 casting and or first look um i don't know if it's too early for a first look that movie's coming out 2026 see i don't think it's too early you don't think i think and i think that's pretty much guaranteed i would say that's like a lock that you're gonna get something movie related i would hope it would be similar what we saw before like remember when they did the cast and then they had like the scene of him coming out the pipe right and being into the mushroom kingdom oh yeah things i would think something like that to tease where we are in the mario meeting yoshi yeah that's the thing is i the casting thing gets weird because how many more characters say what you said out there well it's like you gotta cast yoshi it's like who's gonna play yoshi sabrina carpenter like you gotta get there this you got you got a list give them people what they want give me sabrina carpenter as yoshi and also yeah like what other characters could we see do we see any actually i don't need to get deep in the i was gonna say do we see any deep cut mario characters do we see like fucking what's the old toadstool name you see him like i don't know i don't know how many more do we see waluigi do we see wario see i think that's i think that's definitely in there right that's gonna be the is it is it danny devito is wario the awesome that'd be fucking sick yeah who's waluigi then oh who's the guy damn i'm not gonna be he was in um fuck what was the one comedy it was like a dark comedy is it called barry yeah i was gonna float for my uh uh waluigi i forget his name but Buster from Arrested Development.

14:07The right-hand man. Oh, Tony Hale? Yeah, Julia Louis-Dreyfus is right-hand man in Jeep. I think he could be a good one. Bill Hader. Oh, Bill Hader. I was thinking of Waluigi. Bill Hader's awesome.

14:16Blessing Adeoye Jr.:I was also thinking of, if you're going to go Danny DeVito, Glenn Howerton, who plays Dennis in Always Sunny. Oh, yeah, because you already have Charlie Day in there. And then moving on from the Mario movie, Mario Kart World DLC is another one I have on the low tier. Gotta have it. You got to, right? And I think it's going to be basic. I think you get the DK skins and the Pauline skins that are based off of the Donkey Kong Bonanza. Cause that was the thing that people pointed out from Mario Kart world is that you go through all the characters and they have these different costumes, but DK and Pauline didn't really have shit.

14:46Blessing Adeoye Jr.:And so obviously they're holding that stuff for some kind of DLC drop. I think here, maybe you get the announcement of what those things are in Mario Kart world, Mario Kart world. Do you get any, do you think you get something for Bonanza? No. Yeah. I want to, but no, and that's not even, and I'm tying this stuff into the Mario. Yeah, I know. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. it's a weird one for me personally like don't get me wrong i love mario i got nothing but it's like i'm more interested in what would surround this other than mario yeah i think i think mario i think donkey kong bonanza definitely gets some kind of update i'm not even gonna say dlc because we were doing the dlc dance yeah we were doing the dlc dance with mario odyssey and that never got any like major major dlc but it did get patches and it did get like additional features and cool stuff added i don't know if we'll see it this soon i'm thinking like a february direct yeah and that's that's what's interesting is i think with this direct you're of course doing your celebration here still the switch to his first year we're not going to look back that much of what's already come out and talk about it i would imagine with the exception of world because i think people do expect and demand stuff like that i think that would be a good boost to that game going into the holidays if it's better than ever and people are playing it yeah yeah bonanza i don't think you need to worry about it i think it is here's the imminent stuff of Mario's anniversaries tomorrow.

16:03What a thing. Here's looking at the movie. Here's looking at Mario Kart World stuff. Here's an old game being added in some way, shape, or form. Here's... With Donkey Kong Bonanza just having happened, you're not getting that 3D Mario platformer soon. So are we looking at a more classic 2D thing? But Wonder just happened as well.

16:22Blessing Adeoye Jr.:That brings me to my medium hype. Medium hype! Medium hype prediction slash hope slash dream. Mario Wonder Switch 2 edition. Yeah, I guarantee you, right? Plus some kind of DLC. Yeah. i think in the way that you do the kirby in the forgotten land plus star cross worlds right or mario uh 3d world plus bowser's fury i think a mario wonder switch to edition plus some kind of dlc i don't know luigi wonder like peach wonder like you know bowser's second fury i don't know what the fuck it is right but i think some kind of plus added dlc could be really good and i think timing wise does make sense and could work out i agree with you i think i think again wonder is a slam dunk of getting a switch to edition with something else to get you excited for that I wonder when that comes out no pun intended that's the thing where it's like you want to have a series of Mario announcements here to celebrate this 40th anniversary but we don't want to slam more stuff into the end of the year here right if we are having no if it gets announced I'm thinking maybe early next year like maybe in like the April slot March April slot which brings you to high hype high hype everybody Mario maker two and or Mario wonder two, like a new 2d outing Mario maker three.

17:36Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Sorry, Mario maker three. Yeah. Okay, cool. I don't expect those things, but I think they'd be cool. I think they'd be. Here's my thing is Mario maker is an amazing game, an amazing piece of technology. And I think we'll be enhanced so much by the cursor for building your stuff with switch. i would love it to be mario maker 3 i still think it would it i imagine it would be mario maker 2 plus whatever switch to edition mario maker 2 plus paint exactly edition something goofy like that that hey and we're pat it now uses the mouse controls and blah and it'll pull from all the and then it's going to have all the old shit in there it'll have new stuff in it blah blah blah which would be cool and great i would be excited for a brand new mario 3 or whatever but like whatever they're going to do that way but yeah i think it's a no-brainer that we eventually get more mario maker but i wonder if nintendo's committed to making a three or if they just want to enhance two yeah and then my impossible hype one is a new 3d mario right like that's the thing that i think we all want but also on one hand on the other hand i'm satiated by the donk by donk kong bonanza that was the mario odyssey team i don't believe that they're going to turn around and put out another game next year i think that would be like some and then you get into are you like are would they let anybody else do it oh another 3d mario yeah yeah i don't know i don't think so yeah like i i think there's a chance they could be concurrently they could have been concurrently developing them but i don't see i don't think you i just don't think you put it out next year i just don't think that'd be a smart decision coming off of banana best case i would imagine you get some kind of like and it's 40 years and all the things we've announced yeah but don't worry mario's not done yet take a look at this and it's just like a teaser of you know yeah mario grabs his hat or something and like out the door and it's the title reveal and that's it but even that i don't think that's what they'll do yeah like i think you make that announcement it'd be a thing that's at least 2027 at least at least like as a miracle um but those are my mario low medium high impossible hype predictions yeah fair enough yeah and i'd be happy with that i'd be good with that like mario maker would be great ben loves wonder and i love playing wonder with him so whatever they want a passion add to that i'd be down for that too and there's like things around the edges.

19:47Blessing Adeoye Jr.:I would love another Mario sports game. And that's where I was of... Man, don't break my heart again. Listen. Tennis Aces was alright. It was alright, but remember the soccer game? They were all alright. The soccer game was like we fell off hard. We don't care anymore. Golf we fell off hard on too. That's the thing. I think one of those is more likely than a 3D. And I know you know that too. You're a possible scale. I know. I'm just calling it out of like I could see Mario basketball or something goofy like that. Mario Hoops would be it'd be sick until it comes out and be like oh this is very fine you know i mean mario sluggers that'd be such a sick announcement until it'd come out and be like okay it's fine uh bander sn is on the right track with us of course uh prediction two new switch two edition games my bet pikmin 4 and mario wonder pikmin 4 yeah another of like oh yeah yeah yeah you start looking back at like what are the switch one games that got overlooked a little bit luigi's Mansion 3 Switch 2 edition?

20:42Blessing Adeoye Jr.:I feel like the older games are less likely to get Switch 2. I think the Zelda games were kind of the standout because of Breath of the Wild and being famously chugging at times. But I don't know, I feel like Luigi's Mansion and what was the other one you mentioned that came out? Pikmin 4. No, Pikmin was even more recent, but there's another earlier game that you had from the Switch lifecycle that just feels like it feels way too, I don't know. Hold on. Sorry, just to close out. Then Bander SN said also Mario baseball with Shohei Otani playable. And then over here, I like really good beef says Mario pickleball.

21:19Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Oh, my God. Can you fucking imagine Mario? That's money right there. Fun. Yeah. Yeah. I didn't. You were going somewhere. I just wanted to get it all out before it slipped away. Sorry. I didn't mean to derail. Yeah, I think. Well, Barry was talking about the Switch 2 edition. So I think the fact that we got like Mario Party, Jamboree and Kirby in the Forgotten land like i think i do think the switch to edition idea is smart the execution has been wonky but i i don't believe they're done yet but i do think they'll be done after this year like i don't think this is a thing that they keep i just like when you bring up luigi's mansion 3 i'm like that's a pre-pandemic game i don't know if they're going that far back outside of breath oh was it really that long ago yeah that was 2019 you're thinking of luigi's mansion 2 hd they did that more recently which we were okay that's a good call out there yeah yeah yeah uh big said hear me out mario party maker oh oh man i need a cigarette let me get some more mario stuff before we get outside of mario stuff from your super chats over here epic failure says if it's more mario focused i'm assuming we're getting news on the movie sequel and a new 2d mario trailer i don't think we're getting a new 3D Mario.

22:31So they're with us. And I do wonder if new 2D Mario trailer would count for wonder. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Getting more content there or whatever. Krabby Patty. Again, speaking some language here. And by the way, thank you for the raid. Krabby Patty. I saw you earlier over there. Super chat and says probable Mario golf slash tennis on Nintendo switch online.

22:53Blessing Adeoye Jr.:What do you mean? On Nintendo switch online. More of the old games. Oh, the old games. Yeah. Yeah. GameCube ones? Yeah, Toadstool 2 around fucking there, the GameCube one, I'd flip out. I'll say, because I think the N64 ones, I forget if they're already there. Toadstool 2 or Rain, I'll tell you that right now. And then possible Mario Galaxy 2, impossible Smash Melee on Nintendo Switch Online. Dude, Smash Melee would be so sick, but yeah, I don't know if it's the time yet. RyudanX says, I'm thinking we get a new Super Mario Bros. collection and other news. And the other news is info on a Tamagotchi life in Rhythm Heaven.

23:29Heard nothing about

23:30Blessing Adeoye Jr.:them since announcing them yeah that's the other thing that we shout out is there's a lot of games that we know are coming that we need more um information and that's what yeah again is i wanted to transition a bit out of mario david and with the call out for mario maker 3 to tie us over to the next mainline game yes of course again i would just enjoy a switch 2 edition blah blah to expand beyond mario i think it gets you know for me personally more interesting of what we're gonna get metroid date i think you have to for sure you have to it's supposed to be this year right what do we got where are we going i think we're under on it actually being this year still i still think this year yeah i do too i i i honestly do think it'll it'll come out in december i think that's where they'll go whatever yeah i'm kind of with that too uh but then i think for me personally it debuted at a nintendo direct it's time to give me a fucking date for marvel cosmic invasion we we have been they've been saying this year they've been doing this thing you're out of fucking time announce some more out of time announce two characters and give me the goddamn date on this fucking game because I can't wait for it.

24:30Hades 2. We need a release date for that. Did they say they were going 1.0 this year?

24:37Blessing Adeoye Jr.:I don't know what they said this year. They said I think this has been weirdly reported a couple times and they've kind of gone back on it sometimes. But I think the idea is the next big update is supposed to be the 1.0 update. And they did say that when it goes 1.0 it will be Switch console exclusive for a time. Yes, it will be Switch console inclusive. It would make sense. So that would make a lot of fucking sense. If Hades 2 comes out before Game Awards, the way that this is going to be the... We're going to have the best debates. Bloodbath. We're going to have the best debates of all time.

25:10Blessing Adeoye Jr.:What the fuck? Hades 2 versus Silksong versus... Expedition 33. Expedition 33. Not even bringing DK Bananas or fucking Death Stranding or Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 into it. Just those three games. What a year for fucking games. Oh, dude. Video game lovers are going to be fucking hating. It's going to be a bloodbath. God. Blueprints. I love Blueprints. It's my game of the year still currently, but it's not going to be nominated. I've already made Peace. What game? Blueprints. Yeah, it'll be nominated for Indie Game of the Year. It won't be nominated for Indie. Yeah, it won't be on our top 10 list, I think, sadly.

25:45Blessing Adeoye Jr.:You don't think it'll make the top 10 list? Kind of funny. Even if it's on my number one. I think we can shop. Maybe. Until I figured out something goofy that one day I'll talk about so I don't get in trouble. you know let's keep this all very ambiguous i am ready for blueprints i've talked about like i had to be in the mood and after hell is us i am so ready for blueprints but i'm so buried by redacteds yeah that it's like i gotta get out of that and then get back to it hope i sold so you'll get to it in december cool no no i hey hey hey hey hey hey no no i'm gonna get to it before december because i do think that game looks like it's a shit and i want to be a part of that um Not to be a super dead horse, but we had that one game come out for N64 Online, bless.

26:28Blessing Adeoye Jr.:That was part of the people figuring out the blurred games. Yeah. Where Donkey Kong 64 and Smash Brothers and Glover and Rayman 2. You're talking about Forsaken 64. Yeah, Forsaken 64 got officially announced. So maybe not DK64. I don't want to give my hopes up too much. too much but maybe super smash brothers 64 i would love that oh yeah i would love that bring in some more of that mario love you know the last one i'll throw out there is another trailer for duskbloods the from software game that was announced exclusive switch to multiplayer from software i feel like we're more likely to hear about finally an elden ring uh release date right i don't think we have that and you guys got to play it at pax and it was at gamescom so i think yeah i don't think you will see duskbloods until elden rings cleared yeah i can see that yeah that's a good call uh mitchell b has a super chat and says direct hype give me a release window for the new okami game they teased at tgas last year do we even know that yeah i think that's further out yeah yeah i don't think though but i appreciate it i appreciate the hype tell us not there uh aaron lime super chats and says metal gear solid master collection volume two on switch two old snake on nintendo i would fucking adore that not a chance yeah no i don't see it and i don't mean like volume two never coming to switch two even though i don't well now it can run it'd fine i just don't think they do that here i don't think i'd be insane it'd be weird did volume one come to switch one let me look that up switch two i would imagine so maybe not switch two but yeah not a switch two edition but yeah collection uh cozy bear has a fun unrealistic prediction samus gets announced as playable in mario kart to coincide with metroid prime 4's release date announcement for a weird reason i don't see it which is funny because mario kart 8 had all the crossover characters i think they have samus never came over to the mario kart 8 yeah what would be fun though is if you played with the costumes and so it was it's just you can get peach a samus outfit uh i mean a helmet or something like that uh master collection did come to switch one by the way thank you very much oh cool uh final fantasy 7 uh i think we will probably finally get a date for that as well um and then you know off of the nintendo direct to Xbox will announce like, hey, it's coming to our platform on that same day too.

28:45Jonathan has a super chat says my safe prediction a trailer for Panzer Dragoon 2 Zui remake. My impossible as fuck prediction. The Star Fox franchise isn't dead. It's back with a ratchet and clink like level of fidelity. Yeah, keep dreaming on that one for sure.

29:02Blessing Adeoye Jr.:A Star Fox return would be cool, but also it's like I don't even know what a Star Fox looks like nowadays. 2025. Yeah. King Toast has one that says it's simple fire emblem three houses switch to edition oh yeah we got to get a fire emblem thing for switch too yeah that feels like one that that feels like one of those ones that like they're holding the pocket you know for like a we know this is a banger like it's not like an animal crossing right but it's still like a this is one of our staples like you're gonna have a fire i could see if there is a fire emblem thing maybe not a new game because i feel like the recent game was only like a year or two ago at this point right fire emblem engage yes engage uh engage i could see the that rare gamecube game uh getting put onto nintendo switch online soon because people were stoked about that there were definitely rumors i know tim was talking about fire emblem was i forget if he was talking about fire emblem one though it was like one fire emblem game with like a weird ass name that might have been the first fire emblem that tim would bring up of like oh this thing is probably gonna get like a remake so yeah i i could see some kind of re-release remake or port and then you start seeing uh the ones there johnny 512 says zelda of ocarina of time remake i want it with all my heart all my fucking soul this isn't the place for that i don't think yeah i don't think you'd see that here that's i think that's going to be a bigger i'm also not convinced that that's a real thing i know i i'm you know this is where i'm i'm in i'm in my fourth level of impossible i'm also up there with animal crossing uh here's animal crossing switch to edition again uh you know new horizon switch to edition i don't think we're obviously close to a new animal crossing i do think nintendo inevitably is going to do a switch to edition of this game i think however they wait till next year to coincide with the anniversary in march genealogy of the holy war is the name of that firearm that's a name yeah that's a name right there i think you get the warrens to go investigate that one

30:52um dose of nostalgia asked question i feel like we kind of talked about but do you think this will we'll close it off here okay yeah do you think there will be a mention slash throwaway line of Nintendo mentioning they're working on the next 3D Mario. I think there is a chance of that. And I don't think it's a small chance. Like I said, it could be the whole thing. We're not Mario's journeys aren't done yet. Put the room was super Mario, whatever a tease of it. It could also be that like we are hard to work on this, that, and the other. And of course the next 3D Mario.

31:19Blessing Adeoye Jr.:I think the only reason why I do think there is a chance is because it's the anniversary 40. If it's a big, it's the 40th anniversary. It's a big number. You know, you announced that your new console without a new big 3D Mario. and i i also wonder how they're viewing it as far as like is it odyssey 2 or is it something that they're viewing is scaled up even more because like part of me even envisions it like when they first revealed breath of the wild of just showing rendered hey here's mario in a level and like it's something that is oh shit like i wasn't expecting this to be the direction for mario they're like that's all we're showing you we'll see you in five years i think that's i know i know i just hate hearing it that's the time you're working and talking about 2030 like we're not all wear wraparound glasses and in flying cars like we won't have society we won't have a democracy that doesn't feel like it's a nintendo move today though to like hey let's show you a game but again that's not going to come out in five years 40th anniversary i feel like you really want to celebrate mario and all this old shit you have what new shit do we have yeah but like the return of mario 99 do we get that again too mario 35 please my apologies thank you um i do wonder because like they did jack shit for the zelda whoa i think 35th anniversary or whatever that happened right after the mario one yeah um and that's just because things weren't lined up i i feel like with the zelda to make things happen to show things off because they weren't ready to show i just don't think modern nintendo wants to rock like that sure mainly because they showed breath of the wild for years and years and years and then it finally came out um so yeah i don't see it yeah i just think there's i agree i agree with both sides here i just think there is a green goblin mask-esque voice in nintendo's ear that is you put out the switch two you've not announced a 3d mario it's the 40th anniversary give the people something even though they're not gonna fucking play this game for years and years and years give the people something and listen nintendo here's what i'll say resist i don't want to see it if i'm not gonna play it resist that voice don't show it to me if it's five years away don't fucking show it to me if it's two years away yeah maybe fair enough uh we will find out what is coming friday for the nintendo direct you can watch it with us bright and early our time 6 a.m pacific like i said we'll be live about 5 50 a.m for a little bit of a pre-show uh we'll go from that right into our games cast reaction and uh review right into that the games daily right into that into a so keep your watches dialed up and if you want to watch it somewhere else and then watch this with us later of course youtube.com slash kind of funny games final super chat for right now comes from golden spider my prediction Nintendo sues everyone watching using bullshit and obscure patent laws Nintendo's becoming as bad as EA lately what does that mean well it has to do with story number two but before we get there I want to tell you about two of our sponsors because this is kind of funny games daily and we couldn't do it without them and we couldn't do it without you.
