This week Hans Gougar joins to discuss the current state of video game adaptations in Hollywood. Between Nintendo's collaborations with Sony Pictures and Universal, to television like Fallout & The Last of Us, the hottest trend in cinema right now is adapting your favorite game to the silver (or small) screen. In what ways is this similar to the superhero Marvel Studios-led gold rush, and what lessons can Hollywood learn from the last 5 years of superhero fatigue? We break it all down. We also cover all the Nintendo and gaming news such as Phil Spencer and Sarah Bond leaving Xbox, Sony closing down Playstation studio Bluepoint, the Supreme Court overturning Trump's tariffs, Pokemon Leaf Green and Fire Red coming to Switch and much more. As always, we close with the games we've been playing. Listen to Super Switch Headz on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you enjoy podcasts.

This week Cyril from Defunct Games & emulation advocate Michael Domangue join to discuss the current state of the Nintendo Switch Online Nintendo Classics apps and compare their features to the many ways that traditional emulation has evolved over the years. Online play with friends, rewinding, and ease of use are all great features, but there are several innovations in emulation that Nintendo could utilize to make their service even better. We go over these and take a look at the subscription service as a whole. We also cover all the Nintendo and gaming news such as fresh Direct rumors, Dispatch being censored on Nintendo platforms, Virtual Boy getting new unreleased games, major gaming figures found in the Epstein files and much more. As always, we close with the games we've been playing. Listen to Super Switch Headz on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you enjoy podcasts.
