And other revelaitons from a crazy break.Download (Time: 3:14:33)
As Nintendo Free Radio emerges from a drama-induced backlog, we hit a bunch of March's finest. Leading off in
New Business is the new-apartment dwelling Donald, who has a couple of flawed portable RPGs with
Codename STEAM for the 3DS and
Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines. After early impressions of an infamous Smash tournament and the remake of the year, the baton is thrown to Stephen for a
Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate update and information on the trippy 3DS puzzler
Ketzal's Corridors, now available on Club Nintendo for coins if you can access it. Austen gets off the portable train by hitting a whole shedload of
Resident Evils, indie puzzle masochism simulator
Ori and the Blind Forest, and the
FFXV demo starring a giant enemy Ramuh who attacks the planet for massive damage.
A brief
Whatcha Watchin' has Donald passing and Stephen quick-hitting
Fish Kings and S3 of
House of Cards, before Austen catches up on
Agents of Shield and the new
Transformers: Robots In Disguise cartoon. (The Kotaku article referenced:

The
Feature was recorded a few weeks ago, but does feature a load of speculation about Nintendo's future in lieu of certain St Patrick's Day announcements, as well as a post-games Konami and how the hell Sony can sell 20 million systems when all their first party stuff gets delayed. For the
Mushrooms, it's all about the changes, including some companies refusing to change.
55 is in the can and will come out soon, but we can always use some feedback - tweet us @nfrpodcast or just drop it below. And you might notice something different about the NWR thread...
