episode 17: Lite Switch: March 8, 2024 | Return of the Obra Dinn, Marvel Snap, Pokemon GO, and more
In our first season break episode, Mike & Jaymo dish on games they've been playing that aren't part of the Nintendo Switch Online retro catalog.
Mike dives into an alternate career path as a magic murder investigator with 2018's "Return of the Obra Dinn." He also recaps his experience at "Pokémon GO Tour: Sinnoh - Los Angeles and his efforts to catch a shiny level 1 Azelf.
Jaymo's gearing up for Marvel Snap's "Avengers vs X-Men" update and testing the waters by streaming on The Old Switch-a-roo's Twitch account: https://www.twitch.tv/theoldswitcharoopodcast. We also compare/contrast Marvel Snap to Mike's card game frames-of-reference, Magic: The Gathering and the long-out-of-print Star Wars: CCG.
There's also some excitement from Jaymo for Princess Peach: Showtime! coming out later this month. Will either of us play it on release day? Probably not. But it still looks fun. We've also both been playing some N64 Pokemon Snap, but you'll have to tune in to season two to find out if we catch 'em all! (Protip: Mike's Twitch stream is already up on his YouTube channel).
