#232 – Catching Up On The News

On this week's episode of the Vookcast, Ollie is joined by Angelo, Michael, and Luke as they catch up on all the news we've missed in our three weeks off the air. We discuss the shutdown of the 3DS and Wii U eShops, the improvement of Nintendo's N64 offerings on the Switch, Nintendo skipping EVO, and of course, the big Nintendo Direct... recorded right before a new Pokemon game was announced, as is tradition. What are your thoughts on the inevitable death of the 3DS and Wii U?  What was your favourite part of the Nintendo Direct? How on Earth did we record yet another podcast right before more major news happened? Head on over to the Vooks Discord to let us know, give feedback, and throw some suggestions our way for the new "On The Spot" segment. Subscribe to us on your favourite listening platform, and please consider sharing and giving us a review - it really helps!Relevant articles: Majora’s Mask arrives on NSO with fixes for Ocarina of Time and Paper Mario as wellCapcom Fighting Collection brings 10 classic Capcom fighting games together3DS and Wii U eShops getting the axe in March 2023, redownloads will still be availablePokémon Bank will be free for a while when 3DS eShop shuts downEverything in the Nintendo Direct for February 2022Follow us on twitter: VooksOliver BrandtAngelo ValdiviaLuke HendersonMichael GoncalvesThis week's intro music is 'Bomb Rush Blush' from Super Smash Bros.
