This is the podcast exclusively for you, the supporters of the site, and today we have a bumper episode taking us inside Nintendo's recent Parisian Switch 2 reveal event.

The very same door movie star Natalie Portman apparently wasn't allowed to pass. That's a true story by the way! She was there the day before but wasn't allowed in. Eurogamer got in but Natalie Portman didn't. Soz, Nat.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle's latest update finally lets you lob spare repair kits at enemies
Plus new Adventure Books and more.
I suspect I might be in a minority here, but I can confidently say I didn't use a single repair kit as I bumbled and faffed my way through MachineGames' excellent Indiana Jones and the Great Circle late last year - mainly because I was so enamoured by the game's ludicrous clobbering loop I couldn't take two steps forward without hoovering up another handful of melee-focused bric-a-brac. So I very much appreciate that Indy's latest update finally gives my never-diminishing stash of repair kits a purpose by letting me lob them at foes.

Opinion | Do I play Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom on Switch 2 or should I wait for Switch 3?
At some point you've just got to jump in or you'll forever miss out.
No, that's not a serious question, but it is very close to the way my mind has been working recently. Should I play the new big game now? If I wait a bit, maybe it'll get patched and be better? What if it gets updated for a Pro console? New generation consoles are only a few years away, and it's bound to be re-released for those, so maybe I should wait and play something else instead? Do the questions ever stop? Why must I overcomplicate everything? Breathe… how do I breathe!?

Punch out.
I'll be honest, when Nintendo revealed the grand finale of its Switch 2 Direct was a new Donkey Kong game, I felt a little deflated. Where was Mario to help launch the new console? (He's in Mario Kart World.) And how long has it been now since Nintendo's last proper 3D Mario game, Super Mario Odyssey? (You don't want to know, it'll just make you feel old.)
