197: Mind Your Ps and Es

We're awash in games this week with Skin Deep, Clair Obscur, the Marathon alpha, and a bunch of other stuff we're continuing to play. In the news, the cancelled Titanfall extraction shooter and more hardware makers like 8BitDo suspending shipments into the United States. Then an emails section flush with the straight scoop on subjects like being a Green Bay Packers shareholder, doing publicity for Banksy, the fate of the Antarctic N64, and more. That's a lot of podcast!
