. Nintendo NX is almost here—I know, it’s unbelievable, but remember, it’s launching in March!—and that means the slow winding down of the Nintendo 3DS.
And the Wii U, too, of course, but it’s 3DS that Nintendo focused on in its latest, announcing a few more games for the aging handheld. All of them have a little bit of weirdness to them. There’s a port of the Wii U game Yoshi’s Woolly World that heavily features the tongue-lolling dog-thing Poochy (unless he dies on the way back to his home planet). There’s with no online level sharing. There’s a new Pikmin but the real-time strategy has been traded in for Mario-ish side-scrolling action.
All in all, as I argue on this week’s Game Life podcast, it’s a very safe lineup from Nintendo—taking as few risks as possible, attempting to provide 3DS software that could sell very well while still reserving the majority of its effort for the launch of NX. After calming me down about Nintendo, as is their job, WIRED’s Jake Muncy and TIME’s Matt Peckham discuss Obduction, the new puzzle adventure game from the creators of Myst. A very special episode of the Game Life podcast! TIME’s Matt Peckham joined WIRED’s Jake Muncy and I in actual physical meatspace together for the first time at this year’s E3 Expo, and we’ve recorded a rollicking show together. We moved as quickly as we could through all of the different games, announcements, and experiences we partook in at this year’s annual trade extravaganza for the video game biz, and still it ended up being about two and a half hours long. So settle in for the Godfather of videogame podcasts—we promise 1 it’s worth it! (And forgive us our audio-quality sins, as we recorded this in a hotel room with a portable voice recorder.) 1Promises are non-binding and unenforceable.
One of us played Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End on Easy. Another played it on “Crushing” difficulty. We discuss the differences (and similarities) between our playthroughs of next week’s highly anticipated PlayStation 4 game on this week’s Game Life podcast. Time’s Matt Peckham and WIRED’s Jake Muncy join me as usual for ( mostly spoiler-free) discussion, after a rundown of some more Nintendo news, plus Electronic Arts’ announcement of the World War I shooter Battlefield 1 and why that’s a little bit odd.
Lots of crazy Nintendo news this week:, to March 2017. We know it’s coming out for Nintendo’s new NX game machine as well as the Wii U, but NX isn’t going to make an appearance at this year’s E3 Expo in June. What’s more, Nintendo says the only game playable at its E3 booth will be Zelda. Does any of this make sense? Perhaps Nintendo’s making the best of a bad situation. Time’s Matt Peckham and WIRED contributor Jake Muncy join me on the Game Life Podcast this week for an analysis of the most recent Nintendo news.
Virtual reality is finally a reality, in the sense that consumers finally own the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. (Or, you know, you’re on a giant waiting list with no end in sight.) On this episode of the Game Life podcast, Time’s Matt Peckham joins in and we run down our favorite VR experiences so far, and talk about what makes a good VR game versus a bad VR game. Going off on a bit of a tangent, we talk about the idea that Microsoft and Sony might be introducing slightly-better game consoles soon, getting players into an incremental upgrade cycle. Later, we pick up on a few news stories that have hit this week: soon, and the publisher is PlayStation. (More like Everybody’s Gone Third Party!) Finally, suggest that The Legend of Zelda for Wii U will feature voice acting and an option to play as a female character. The voraciousness with which the Internet set upon those is our first topic of discussion on this week’s Game Life podcast, followed by Jake Muncy’s initial explorations into Bandai Namco’s highly anticipated Dark Souls III. (It’s nearly available here in the U.S., but you can play it on Xbox One right now if you set your regional settings to Japan.) Talking about Nintendo and Dark Souls pretty much ran us out of time, so Matt Peckham and I take just a moment at the end to talk about one of the more interesting virtual reality experiences I had at Game Developers Conference last week.
At the DICE Summit this week, I got the chance to talk with Penn Jillette, one half of Penn & Teller, and Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford, following their keynote presentation. The pair are working together on a new version, with some virtual reality elements, of the classic Desert Bus. Their focused on how game developers can use principles of magic in their designs. After a few minutes of conversation, I realized I wanted to share the whole session with everyone. So on this episode of the Game Life Podcast, it’s the whole interview.
To call it “wide-ranging” might undersell it a bit. Here’s some of what you can expect:. Desert Bus. Hillary Clinton. Janet Reno.
Virtual Reality, Shakespeare, and politics. The Music Man. The time Penn met Notch. The Residents. Guarding magical secrets. The Internet as world-peace engine.
Fake lottery tickets And more. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did, and thanks to Jillette and Pitchford for joining in.
What was going on in Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture, the PlayStation 4 game by The Chinese Room released last year? I had a lot of thoughts about the message that this game was trying to convey, but I at the time of its release for fear of “spoilers.” Well, the statute of limitations on that is quite up, and more to the point, I haven’t been able to find other analyses of the game that get at what I was taking away from it. Tackles one of the great questions of human existence—coming to terms with the inevitability of death—and gives us a metaphor to help us think about it. It can be a profound experience, aided by one of the greatest (and most impactful, in terms of its literary connection to the game’s message) original musical scores in recent memory. On this episode of the Game Life podcast, Jake Muncy and TIME’s Matt Peckham join in for a no-holds barred pull-apart of Rapture. But first, we do some relatively spoiler-free Firewatch discussion.
On this week’s Game Life podcast, we discuss one game that’s being altered to be more inviting to players, Nintendo’s impending HD remake of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, and one that seems very much to want to make players feel unwelcome, that is, The Witness. Jake Muncy joins in to chat about these games, Nintendo rumors (is Mother 3 really happening?) and his impressions of PAX South in San Antonio, Texas. (Tech note: There was an audio issue that affected last week’s podcast and this one as well—I’ve fixed it now, but not in time to fix this episode. Are we close to finally hearing some details of Nintendo’s upcoming “NX” platform? There are certainly a lot of coming out about it, which would tend to indicate that Nintendo is getting close to announcing something about the new dedicated game machine that it’s often said it planned to discuss at some point in 2016.
TIME’s Matt Peckham joins me on this episode of the Game Life podcast to discuss the NX rumors and what it might all mean, what we might hear at Nintendo’s upcoming financial briefing on February 2, and of course what we both think about Jonathan Blow’s, because you pretty much have to talk about that these days on gaming podcasts. I don’t do difficult games, but Jake Muncy certainly does, and so he’s here on the Game Life podcast to discuss. I meanwhile tell him about, which it would be difficult to not be able to finish in a few hours.
Riding the line between easy and hard is Super Mario Advance 4, recently released on Virtual Console for Wii U. A souped-up version of Super Mario Bros. 3, the Virtual Console version contains the extra levels that were only distributed via collectible trading cards, and some of them only in Japan. Some are incredibly easy, and some are quite difficult!
