Midjump: Interview with The Hop-Ons Podcast
Are we back?! Not really, haha, sorry. BUT, we have a very interesting interview with Colin Cox and Jon Phelps from The Hop-Ons Podcast. The Hop-Ons Podcast typically covers television shows (specifically, it has run through both Arrested Development and Twin Peaks), but there's a bit of a...

Episode 326: On Announcements
How do you feel about video game announcements? Are they exciting? Do you find yourself getting wrapped up in the marketing material for projects you don't plan to ever actually engage with? We do. Well, sometimes. It depends on the format. That's kind of the point of this episode. Mitchell and...
-
Episode 325: Where Are All the Studios Going?
Mitchell and Wyatt need to know: Where are all the studios going? It seems like every mid-size studio is either failing or is being absorbed into larger companies.

-
Episode 322: Post-E3 Clean Up
We bring James and Mitchell back together to discuss the post-E3 news and there's... not really that much this year. That said, there's still some stuff. We'll talk about EA's "surprise mechanics," James' personal takeaways from this year's E3, great games like Super Mario Maker 2, Outer Wilds…
more -
Episode 321: The Big E3 Episode
Jeff Onan joins Mitchell to talk about the big show. We go over EA, Microsoft, Bethesda, Ubisoft, Square-Enix, and Nintendo's showings before going into our individual experiences on the showfloor playing demos and meeting folks. It's a magical time that only comes once per year, so we sincerely...
-
Episode 320: E3 Predictions
In the lead-up to E3 2019, Mitchell asks Daryl Baxter back on the show to share their predictions and hopes for each participating company. Also, Mitchell accidentally calls Daryl "Dylan"! Multiple times! It's truly embarrassing! All this and more on this week's episode of the Super Jump…

more -
Episode 318: Catching up with James

-

Wyatt and Mitchell get together this week to discuss Dragon Ball, Jason Schreier's coverage of Anthem's development, a Power Rangers fighting game, and much more! Is Nintendo's attempt at VR worth talking about? Is competitive Melee sick as in "Righteous, bruh!" or sick as in "has an illness"?…
more -

-
Episode 315: Hashing Out the News with Josh Bycer
Wyatt and Mitchell have an abnormal amount of news to discuss on this episode, so they brought on Josh Bycer from Game Wisdom to help them out! From Anthem's shortcomings, to Pokémon Sword and Shield's announcement, to a possible collaboration between Nintendo and Xbox coming in the near future....
-
Midjump: Pokémon Announcements Galore!
You know the drill. When big Pokémon news happens, we bring Jeff Onan on the show to talk with Mitchell about it. This time, we got new trailers for two distinct Pokémon movies releasing before the end of the year. Can you believe we're getting two in one year? By the time both of these come out,...
-
Episode 314: Nintendo Enjoyment and Blizzard Unemployment
For our Pi episode, we talk about the recent Activision Blizzard layoffs and Nintendo Direct! Mitchell's still playing through Dragon Quest III and Wyatt's still playing Apex Legends. Additionally, both folks tried out the new Nintendo free-to-play battle royale, Tetris 99! That sentence has so...
-
Episode 313: Apex Legends Got Me Quakin'
Mitchell and Wyatt talk up that new hotness, Apex Legends. How good was that stealth reveal? Also, Blizzard is having a bit of an issue at the moment (this episode was recorded before the layoffs). What does it mean for the company's future? Finally, should the term we use for immediately…
more -
Episode 312: Metroid's Getting a Makeover
Mitchell and James are absolutely floored by a recent Nintendo announcement. Frankly, we didn’t think being open about that kind of thing in the video game industry was something you could do. Additionally, Mitchell started playing Kingdom Hearts IIIwithout first experiencing any of the other...
-
Episode 311: Freedom, Fortnite, and a Fatality
After a brief hiatus, we returned to some big news: Bungie has wrestled control of Destiny away from Activision, EA decided to cancel EA Vancouver’s open world Star Wars game, and Netflix is apparently worried about Fortnite capturing everyone’s screen time. Oh, and we somehow managed to discuss...
-
Episode 310: A Preview of 2019
With that old, smelly, ghost of a year called "2018" out of the way, we can focus on her younger, sexier sister, 2019. Man, I hated writing that sentence. It's terrible. I started by calling a year a ghost, and does that just mean that it's over? What am I really meaning by saying that? Is it an...
-
Episode 309: 2018 in Review
Yeah, we're still going to end up talking about Smash Bros. It's unavoidable! We'll get James' first impressions on the game and then head straight into the SUPER JUMP PODCAST 2018 AWARDS!!

-
Episode 308: Reflecting on Sma- I Mean, The Game Awards
On December 6th, The Game Awards happened and then, within minutes of it ending, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was released. We usually try to hype up a diversity of topics in these blurbs, but this episode is pretty much just about those two things. How has the competitive scene been reacting…

Midjump: Smash Came Out!!
Sometimes, you get prepped to wait for something for a very, very long time. Most Smash Brothers games have a very long launch cycle where we wait for multiple years for the game's release. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, however, was announced this E3 and came out this year, which is such a nice...
-
Episode 307: Let's Go Bethesda!
This week is a solid mix of both good and bad news. James and Mitchell talk about some high-profile games that they didn't enjoy as much as they hoped they would, but there are also some highlights in the delightful Tetris Effect and Nintendo killing their questionably legal Creators Program for...
-
Episode 306: Detective Pikachu's First Case: Where is Sony?
Sony announces that they won't be at E3 and, frankly, we have a hard time guessing why. Detective Pikachu gets a chance on the silver screen and it looks so much better than it has any right to. Finally, I guess the N64 Classic just doesn't exist? Mitchell and Wyatt discuss all this and more on...
-
Episode 305: Smash Direct and BlizzCon
Reveals are probably my favorite thing to focus on in a podcast, and we have a lot of them this week. Both the recent Super Smash Bros. Direct and this year's BlizzCon have run the gamut of both great and disappointing reveals and we break down what those reveals mean. Also, that cowboy game came...
-
Episode 304: Smash Leaks, Rockstar, and Drake
What do Smash leaks, Rockstar's work environment, and musical sensation Drake have in common? We talk about them on this episode and... that's it! All that and more on this week's Super Jump Podcast!! Musical themes and interludes by Jamatar.

Midjump: Talking Mario Party with a Young Person
Word up, children. Time to talk about video games. *dab* We here at Super Jump know how to talk to children. We know they love the hiphop music and the Fortnite dances. We've seen the Youtubes. What we don't know is how the young people feel about Super Mario Party. It's a very specific gap in…
more -
Episode 303: Microsoft Mergers and Microtransactions
It looks like Microsoft is doing what Microsoft does best these days: buying other companies. Jason Schreier opened up a debate on the legitimacy of microtransactions in otherwise standard-priced games. We have some thoughts. Also, an Assassin's Creed came out and James played it. Mitchell has...
-
Episode 30X: The Hidden Ep
You found our secret HALF-EPISODE! What a slooth you are! This episode didn't exactly get the full release treatment because the software terror that is Audacity ate up the front third or so of the audio. Oops! There's still a lot in this episode, however, so we wanted to at least give our...
-
Episode 302: Telltale Closes and Pokémon Turns 20
Weird few weeks for gaming, huh? I don't really know how I feel about it quite yet. A few studios closed down, a fad lasts two decades long, and Destiny is still worth talking about. All that and more on episode 302 of the Super Jump Podcast!
-
Midjump: September Smash Speculation
We're in a pretty fun position right now. We know a good amount about what's going to be in the upcoming Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but not everything. Some leakers have established themselves as legitimate. Some patterns have been broken. Numbers have been given by Sakurai and the rest of the...
-
Episode 301: Season Three Premiere!
We're back and we've got new tact! tics! Tactics. You know, for making the show more regular? Mitchell's here. James is here. Wyatt's here? Yup, we brought on a newby and he has interesting opinions about things! Good things! Man, I liked this episode. I can't really tell when we have a great...
-
Episode 213: Season Two Finale!
As the tides of time roll through the sands of life, things shift. Some are gained, some are lost, some inverted, and some elevated to previously unreached heights. This is all to say that this is the conclusion of the second season of the Super Jump Podcast. When we come back, we have new goals…

Episode 212: Generation Nine is Nigh
Would you believe it? We heard you like the Super Jump Podcast, so we put the Super Jump Podcast inside your Super Jump Podcast! That's right, Midjumps will now be inserted into the main episode and we'll return officially (even though we already were there) to a biweekly structure. Episodes will...
-
Episode 211: The Calm After the Storm
Man... we uh... we just took a little nap for a couple of weeks. Don't mind us. We may have the least-consistent release schedule of all-time, but we pack a punch where it counts: ... heart? Sure, we have a lot of heart. What we don't have, however, is news. What do we do in times of news…
more -
Episode 210: E3 Wrap-Up
We're back with a our first regular episode since E3! It's about... E3! Last one, we promise! In this episode, we talk about what Mitchell saw on the show floor and conclude our thoughts on E3. Who won? What game performed the best in show? Did Mitchell play any ramen-based games at Indiecade?…

June Jump: Ubisoft, Sony, and Nintendo
We're wrapping up our special run of E3 episodes... a bit late. Sorry! Couldn't have been helped. In this episode, Mitchell and James talk about the presentations from Square Enix, Ubisoft, Limited Run Games, Sony, and Nintendo. Thanks for waiting and we can't wait to see you at E3 next year!

-
Episode 209: The Unsilence Before the Storm
This episode is budget-length because we're saving all of our energy for E3. We talk about the first Sea of Thieves expansion, we look at the recent Pokémon news dump, and we answer some fanmail. Also, we outline what's in store for this podcast for the next week. All that and more in this week's...
-
Episode 208: The Leaky, Creaky E3
E3 is casting its shadow upon us like a total eclipse of the sun. By the time it finally arrives, we'll be faced with a number of exciting reveals that will distract from other smaller announcements. This seems to be the reason why there is a rush by many studios and publishers to get some of…

Midjump: Pokémon Let's Go! Leak
Mitchell invites Jeff Onan back on the show to talk about the potential Pokémon Switch leak. While the Super Jump podcast usually doesn't discuss unconfirmed information, this leak has been corroborated by enough different people and outlets to put our full trust into it. How will this Pokémon...
-
Episode 207: Revving Up
Mitchell and James check out that good news. Sometimes we don't get to report on good news, but this time, we do...s. We doos? I wanted it to rhyme, but it's obviously too streigned. Anyway, we also talk about God of War, Nintendo Labo, and our E3 predictions on this week's Super Jump Podcast....
