We love features that cross the "who wrote this? Are they okay?" barrier.

Sneak King ART

This Week: Entirely too much time on why its hard to get Pokémon Cards, appropriate time negotiating wishes with a genie, Presents + Indie World, Resident Evil Requiem, FFVII Remake, and Blippo+

It's Episode 966: Increase Your Sneak With This One Weird Trick

John Dillermand: Intro YouTube video by Daniel

For those who did not get the "they did make that children's show about the guy with the prehensile penis" reference

Really not much else to say here, is there...ART

This week we do our Top Five Games of 2025.

That's it. Sometimes that's all there is to say.

It's Episode 965: LEGO Voyeurs
nintendoworldreport.com/rfn/74529/ep...

If this had been announced on Thursday no less than 30 minutes of this week's RFN would have been spent unpacking it.

Unsuccessfully.

"IT'S IRONIC" ART

This week: No Jon, No Top 5. Instead we talk Virtual Boy, Xenoblade X for Switch 2, tugging Mario's face, Final Fantasy VII Remake, The Punisher, The Hundred Line, Pokemon Company, and ...Morbius.

It's Episode 964: It's Bokoblin Time
nintendoworldreport.com/rfn/74436/ep...

My first job is to learn how to be a podcast.

Remember when we said we were doing our Top 5 this week?

Twice?

Yeah... nope.

Can you believe we've done this nearly 1000 times?

Needs more human tuxedo jackets

This is one of the stock photos James was talking about last week. This was posted today... they're still doing it four years later.

Blowing up the spacetime continuum to sell you plastic crap ART

Jane Goodall & a guy in a DK suit walk onto a soundstage...

We're selling you stuff, directly!

We're also playing Pragmata demo, FFVII Remake, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, The Hundred Line.

It's Episode 963: Bending Time and Space to Market Donkey Konga

Article Quote of the week:

"Who cares about baseball, I want The Sims but with subpoenas."

Paying off my bookie ART

This week: There was a Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase

We got games like Pragmata, Tokyo Scramble, Hamster remains unkillable, and Final Fantasy VII Remake part 2.

But we're busy creating a very stupid sports game.

It's Episode 962: Flat Earther: Y/N?
nintendoworldreport.com/rfn/74222/ep...

Bananas in Pajamas-lookin' fool out here trying to get through the door in chinos.

I think the bouncer is drunk, ART

This week we managed next to nothing, two emails: NSO omissions and surprise Hall of Fame games.

We also talk about the Mario Galaxy Movie, and Tomodachi Life Directs.

Episode 961: Only Games With the Cultural Cachet of Quest for Camelot May Apply

Instructions unclear, sticks are now on the shoulders of the controller

I hate this place and two furry games.

The eShop is a tableau

There are approximately 250 TSIs created for the show.

I am on a quest to document each of them - from memory.

I have until Episode 1000 - roughly, Halloween.
It's going great.

TNN Bass Tournament of Champions GamePlay (SNES) YouTube video by SwiftSmash Gaming Zone

Yes, Opryland USA did license The Nashville Network's sports sub-brand to a bass fishing game.

Given the earlier release date of TNN, it seems the Japanese dev later localized the game for Japan as JBザ・スーパーバス (JB's Super Bass) using the TNN game as the model.

I would buy this game ART

This week: Talking Flower and new amiibo, FFVII Remake on S2, Stray Children, Yars: Recharged. Also, best fishing minigames and potential Switch 2 ports that give us pause.

It's Episode 960: Thunderstruck for Some Striped Bass

Really appreciate what James and Jon said about the reception to Prime 4 on this episode... it IS baffling.
