Updaaaate!

Hey there! Wowy zowy, I just got back from PAX West and boy are my everything tired! But I had an amazing time, and I hope to talk about it in an upcoming Arlocast. Since it's so important but at the same time probably not QUITE important enough to make a whole video about, I'll probably make it public so that any of my fans can enjoy it. However for you loyal $3+ people I do plan on doing a regular old Arlocast soon as well, and I've got a bunch of topics I'll save for it. I wanted to get it out before I left, but obviously that didn't happen. XP

But onto what I'm working on! Tomorrow afternoon is a Nintendo Direct, and you know what that means! I'll be putting up my live reaction/commentary video as soon as I can. Then, the next day, I'll be posting the usual discussion video. I don't have any huge hopes for this Direct, but that don't mean I ain't excited for it!

Then a week later I'll be posting a review for Undertale. I was lucky enough to nab an early review copy, so I'm looking forward to digging into it. I played the game way after the fact and I didn't even complete it, so this is finally a great chance to give it a proper shake.

After that I'll be posting a first impressions video based on my time with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate at PAX. I didn't get to play it a lot, so it will be fairly minimal, but I'm hoping to make it a little more interesting by also including some of the other games I played on my trip. That includes PAX and a special press event that I got to attend at Nintendo of America headquarters in Redmond, WA! It was really cool, and I can't wait to tell you more about it in the cast!

Finally there's the "Switch Million Sellers" video. I THINK I told you guys about this, but in case I didn't, it's a discussion about the Switch's top-selling games and what the numbers all mean for the Switch and those series. I put it off because the reception for "What Makes a Game 'PERFECT for Switch?'" wasn't great. Lots of people getting tired of hearing me talk about the same old games again and again. Which is totally fair! So I put off doing the million sellers video for a while. But hopefully in a few weeks people will be a little more receptive to such a discussion.

Here's the schedule as it is now, but it can always change:
