Meeting Zion at PAX East 2023 changed my life for the better. His advice of “Do What Makes You Happy” helped turn me from a scared college graduate, into a professional mentor. I’m excited to see where he goes next in the future, but NintendoLife won’t be the same without him.

After nearly 7 years working with the team at Nintendo Life, I'm stepping away to try something new ✨ I'll miss my colleagues, this community, and the freedom that Nintendo Life gave me to cover whatever I found important. It's truly been a dream come true, so thank you ♥

Zion might genuinely be in the running for the nicest person on earth. They lit up every single event I saw them at. Not to mention that they're a genuine generational talent in games media. If Zion is leaving games media for good, we're a much worse place for it.

Nintendo Directs are bigger than ever but are riddled with leaks and sky-high fan expectations. With the ultimate goal of "surprise and delight", does Nintendo need to rethink how they roll out these presentations? All this & more in a new Kit & Krysta Podcast! ⏬ Links below ⏬

Art by humans is so important We have people doing plays from centuries ago We have people singing out every word to Bohemian Rhapsody We have people watching The Wizard of Oz over & over Art is a mark we leave on the world once we’re gone All I want is to make art & to share it with all of you

A passionate Nintendo fan who is sometimes critical and wants to see Nintendo improve VS. a guy that claims to be a “passionate Nintendo fan” who devolved into making ragebait slop
