What makes Nintendo unique? And why is it ok when they fail? In this clip from episode 047 of Dialogue Tree, @tokyogamelife.bsky.social tells me what makes Nintendo unique amongst game developers, and how they continue to innovate and push the industry forward. Also feat. The Nintendo Love Tester.

It’s been a big week for past guests of Dialogue Tree (5/?) Last, but certainly not least, @kinmoku.bsky.social put this lovely cat in her upcoming game, Ace & Aro: Heart-to-Heart (and got banned in Russia, so double win). Lucy teased the game on episode 30: www.dialoguetree.cc/episodes/030...

Nintendo releasing Sunshine, 2 new Virtual Boy games and then this on the day I drop a "summer" episode.

Official 2026 Mario Summer Art from Nintendo. It's based off Super Mario Sunshine! mynintendonews.com/2026/07/31/m...

An absolute delight to be joined by one of my favourite podcasters on this one. Mono is such an articulate guy, and if you listen, you can thrill at us: - talking where to get tea in Tokyo - putting a podcaster in Smash - alienating an entire fanbase (sorry Metroid fans) Also, some games 🦊🦑🥁

Tokyo Game Life@tokyogamelife.bsky.social · 5d ago

I’m in Dialogue Tree this week talking about Tokyo and Nintendo’s huge summer lineup! What’s the best game? Where’s a booming gaming hotspot in Tokyo? Why did we kill Metroid? All will be answered!

Internet: “Nintendo isn’t weird anymore.” Nintendo: “How sexy should we make the dancing manta ray?”

A solid dunk, more of this please.

Bad Game Hall of Fame@bghof.com · last wk.

You probably don't need us to tell you that ModRetro is a company very forwardly run by war criminal Palmer Lucky, and that knowingly doing business with them in the year 2026 is a clear sign that parties involved in any deal with them are too cynical / money-minded to give a shit about that fact.

I’m particularly interested in this one given the interview I recorded today. Good cast, can’t wait to listen 🫟

Nearing the end of Splatoon Raiders now but can’t stop thinking about that time it all got a bit, uh, weird.

I covered this excellent game and interviewed lovely dev @lukesanderson.bsky.social on a previous episode. Something I didn’t notice here was the ALL PLATFORMS note. Turnip Mountain on Switch, out Thursday, £9, demo available: www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Games/...
