Episode 908: Podcast Recording – Radio Free Nintendo’s Back to School Edition: Listening and Emailing Simulator 2025

We’re kicking off 2025, although not all of us have made it back just yet. Can you guess who’s missing from the lineup? I’ll give you a moment to think about it.

This week, Greg kicks things off with a short update on the latest adventures in Mario & Luigi: Brothership (00:02:40) and we also delve into some eShop tidbits. James kept busy over the break, diving right into Kirby and the Forgotten Land (00:08:29) – and from the sound of it, he’s played through nearly the entire game. Then, taking a quirky turn, he explores the bizarre world of KONOSUBA – God’s Blessing on this Wonderful World! Love For These Clothes Of Desire! (00:24:26), and rounds things out with a classic, Tetris DX.

Meanwhile, Gui and James both spent their break grappling with the challenges of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle; Gui still has some way to go, while James has finished the ride (00:29:07). Wrapping up our gaming journeys in New Business, Gui hits us with a quick-fire round featuring Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind (00:50:06), New Star GP (00:58:46), and Betrayal at House on the Hill.

After a short intermission, we dive into the first Listener Mail segment of 2025. This week’s questions lead us into a discussion about turning your life goals into a game (01:11:05), along with a chat about how Nintendo could up its game on the eShop front (01:42:02).

As always, we’re eager to hear from you, so feel free to reach out.

This episode was carefully edited by Guillaume Veillette. If you enjoyed the “Men of Leisure” theme, it’s a creation of Perry Burkum, specifically crafted for Radio Free Nintendo. You can explore more of his work on SoundCloud. The recognizable Radio Free Nintendo logo? That’s the work of Connor Strickland, whose portfolio is worth checking out on his website.

For this episode’s finale, enjoy “Krauser Battle” from Resident Evil 4, a choice made by Greg. All rights to this track are owned by Capcom Co., Ltd.
