Jon is out for this episode, our last of the year, but we soldier on without him. Greg kicks off New Business with Rive, the shoot-em-up recently released on Switch. Two Tribes' final game was a strongly-reviewed send-off. He also gives an update on Splatoon 2's new mode, Clam Blitz. Collect clams, get footballs, score points? It's a uniquely complicated mode for Splatoon. Guillaume is taking advantage of his time off to dive into a JRPG - Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne. The PS2 classic lacks some of the polish of its successors, and it's taking Gui out of the experience. James wraps up New Business with a detailed update on Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Yes, he's still playing it. He's over 130 hours in. Pray for him.
After the break, it's time for Listener Mail. This week we tackle a duo of emails. First up, we create some "Collection" titles for Switch. In our second email, we name our 2017 Wii U Game of the Year. You can send us nominees for Nintendo DS Game of the Year via our inbox.
Hmm... Why did And Yet It Moves sell better on Wii than Chasing Aurora did on Wii U?
One has a meaningful single-player mode, one doesn't. One had a large install base, one didn't. One felt like a an art project that was accessible enough for others to appreciate, the other felt like a passion project that didn't easily give away it's true value easily.
Without being too subtle, it's no surprise that one sold much better than the other.
...
The dev was referring to sales just in the month of November 2017, where And Yet It Moves is one of those games that will get way harder to find while Chasing Aurora is on a dead store that hasn't had its dead cat bounce yet.
Hey Greg i always wondered.
How did you get so into american football being from the UK?
Just curious. Also is the sport picking up steam over there or is it really difficult to find other fans of the sport?

The NFL was first broadcast on British TV shortly before I was born in the early 1980s; my older brother was a kid at the time and he became a huge fan of the Chicago Bears. Once I was old enough to have some sort of vague appreciation for the sport, he encouraged me to pick my own team to support; the Bills at that time were running a no-huddle offense very successfully, I thought they looked cool, and the rest is history.
NFL fandom seems a fair bit more commonplace here today than it was back in the 1990s, presumably because of the transformation of the media landscape over that time helping to provide much more exposure for the sport, especially online.
