John and Ryan are back on the mics with sand in their shoes and cardboard in their backpacks, kicking things off with a roundup of their latest video game and Magic: The Gathering pickups—some gems and some regrets.
Then it's onto showcase season, where the duo dives into their most anticipated titles from the latest Xbox Showcase and Sony's State of Play.
But not everything is sunny in hardware land. The guys break down the rumored cancellation of the Xbox handheld, chatting about what it could mean for Microsoft's third-party strategy and whether a hardware pivot is smart—or just sad.
Next up, Nintendo’s out of the gates with early Switch 2 sales figures, and John and Ryan weigh in on whether lightning’s struck twice for the Big N.
To round it all out, the guys fire up their NES and hit the pixelated waves with a retro review of Town & Country Surf Designs: Wood & Water Rage. Is it gnarly or just a wipeout?
