Breath of the Wild is gearing up to take even more of our money! Ooh boy!
DLC is just a fact of life now! The gaming industry has fully adopted the post-launch expansion practice, and Nintendo is finally on board. We’re not too far off from our first dose of expanded Zelda content, so let’s start dreaming of what it could be like!

This episode is TOTALLY different from our Best Villains episode – trust us!
#580 – Baddies – can’t live with ’em, can’t live without ’em. Today, we’re talking about the chiefs of all baddies, the Bosses. But we’ve already featured our favorite villains in a previous episode of TBC, so today we are focusing on the best battles themselves – the conflicts that were memorable for their setting, challenge, build-up, or conclusion. Enjoy!

We went for twice as long, but got no further. It’s tough to give no for an answer.
Can the Crew meld their teamwork power together in order to pass World 1-1 of the original Super Mario Bros? Watch and see!

It’s nothing personal, Wii U… it’s not you, it’s us.
As we discussed yesterday, with a brand new console coming (expensive in itself), it’s also accompanied by many accessories and other opportunities to spend your hard-earned cash. Well, that money needs to come from somewhere, so what about selling your older games and consoles… say… your Wii U? Will you really be playing it anymore? Does it really have THAT many truly exclusive games? We’ve collected the definitive lists of pros and cons – watch, then make up your mind and proceed with confidence!

Omagarf. It’s totally a thing now. Oh. My. GARF!
With all the hype circulating around Pokemon Go and Pokemon Sun & Moon, it is important that we stop and appreciate the smaller things… like Garfemon! Would you believe that an artist has been taking to Tumblr and updating his list of Garfield-Pokemon monster mashups every day? It’s unbelievable! These artistic creations combine the best of both the worlds of Pokemon and Garfield in ways you could never imagine. We’ve collected the best ones yet to show to you, and be sure to check out the rest at garfemon.tumblr.com!

Pretty sure we’re the next Steve Weibe.
While Ryan Van Liere was in town for the launch of Nintendo Switch, Simeon and Scott decided to take him out for a night of fun at the local arcade. We played a lot of arcade games, Nintendo and others, and sunk a lot of quarters into the slots. Our skills, you ask? You’ll have to watch and see for yourself.

The “sequel” to Super Mario World on SNES, Yoshi’s Island, is a very different kind of platformer! With MANY things to collect, crying babies to carry, and plenty of eggs to toss, this is an oddball entry in the Super Mario series. But we love it.

Watch Ya Mouth is a “board game” where players fit huge plastic utensils into their mouth which prevents the lips from closing. Try talking with these things stuffed inside your pie-hole! Well, that’s exactly what we attempt (using only, of course, Nintendo themed words).

It really happened! What started as a rumor, and turned it to a leak, finally materialized as a bona fide mini-presentation from Nintendo themselves, outlining what kind of games we can expect to be playing between now and E3. It wasn’t half-bad!

Our viewers couldn’t get enough of Sonic Mania! Simeon and Scott pick up where Scott and his Dad left off last week. Simeon is an old-school Sonic semi-pro, and this game is bringing back the feels!

Super Mario RPG is one of Simeon’s favorite games! Modern-day Mario RPGs have since lost their way, but it’s always a good time when you throw it back to this Nintendo/Square partnership. Simeon will even show us a few impressive secrets along the way!

We drove 6 hours and got 2 boxes of Super Mario Cereal, so what did we decide to do? A boring taste-test? No! We went full on “Olympics” with this new crunchy, marshmallowy goodness. Watch as Simeon and Scott compete in 5 different feats of strength, agility, accuracy, and endurance to win the gold medal.

We’ve got some big news this week, including a very convincing leak (or fake) about Switch UI 5.0.0. Simeon and Scott discuss newly announced games making there way over to the Nintendo Switch, which is now the fastest selling home console in United States history!

Somehow, Simeon and Scott were coerced into making this terrible video of themselves playing Just Dance on Nintendo Switch. What can we say? Whatever the patrons want, the patrons get. Join us as we give Just Dance 2018 and 2017 a spin, which is pretty accurate considering the motions we’re doing with our Joy-Con! Enjoy, and please DON’T share with any of your friends.

With Breath of the Wild sweeping our Game of the Year Awards, we thought it appropriate to go back “in time” and play a game from the past… A Link to the Past, to be precise. This SNES Classic is a gem, even by today’s standards. With modern games like Blossom Tales still taking nods from ALttP, it’s clear that this title was made to stand the test of time.

For 2016, our game of the year awards were complete sarcasm. All we could come up with were jokes. 2017 is a way different story, however, thanks to the Nintendo Switch and its excellent line-up of year one support from Nintendo, indies, and 3rd parties alike. Buckle up as we dish out 2018 individual awards to a wide variety of well-deserving games!

In this week’s Nintendo News, it looks like two big Switch games aren’t getting any further content updates… Breath of the Wild and ARMS are both complete games as of today. We also take a look at some rumored upcoming Switch games that Amazon partially leaked. Hype!

SteamWorld Heist: Ultimate Edition recently released on the Nintendo Switch eShpop! It’s a single-player affair, but that doesn’t mean Simeon and Scott can’t take turns and have just as much fun! This is a stretegy game along the lines of Mario + Rabbids or Worms. By the end of this video, you should know if the game is for you or not! We also have a review on our channel if you need more information!

We’re throwing it all the way back to Super Mario Bros. on NES! The Nintendo Entertainment System: Classic Edition is getting busted out for some “not-so-speedy” speedrunning of this original 8-bit platformer that started it all.

We did it. We banded together in secret and set Simeon up with his own Nintendo Switch. Simeon is a faithful YouTuber who has been creating Nintendo content for years, day in and day out. But 2017 hasn’t been easy on him and he hasn’t been able to afford his own Switch console. We thought that was wrong; as someone who reports on the latest Nintendo news, we thought Simeon deserved the latest and greatest. That’s why TBC viewers from all over the world pooled their funds to buy him a surprise package including the console, games, and accessories. A sincere thanks to all of those who have supported Simeon (and Scott) over the years. The Crew is the best.
