Kansai resident KyotoGamer joins me to chat about Super Nintendo World, the Mario theme park attraction at Universal Studios Japan! We talk about how Nintendo turned a theme park into a real life video game, what to eat, and tips for your visit. In the games, I discuss the Japan only Custom Robo V2 and close the book on Tunic. Plus Pokemon news, more Japanese games come to the west for the first time, and mascot basketball!
