Metroid Dread, Shiren the Wanderer, and Game Expectations

from The SwitchCast - A Nintendo Switch Podcast · host Team Pocket

We go deep into Metroid Dread this week, with a follow-up review of the pure Roguelike adventures of Shiren the Wanderer: The Tower of Fortune and the Dice of Fate. In the Nintendo Switch Focus, we discuss some of the biggest gaps between our expectations for a new game, and the reality of it - for better or worse. And in the News Rundown, we cover all the latest Pokemon UNITE updates, free games for Switch Online members, and much more!
