Skyward Sword And The Activision Blizzard Lawsuit

Kirk, Maddy, and Jason dive into Skyward Sword HD, the new Zelda remake for Nintendo Switch. Does it hold up today? How does it feel after Breath of the Wild? And what's up with those controls? Then they talk about the harrowing Activision Blizzard lawsuit that's shaken up the video game industry over the past week.

One More Thing:

Kirk: Death’s Door

Maddy: Activision Blizzard discrimination lawsuit

Jason: The Great Ace Attorney

Correction: Kirk initially said that Death's Door was on Game Pass, which it regrettably is not. The episode has been edited.
