There are tons of gaming enthusiast podcasts out in the wild, but almost none of the top-tier podcasts are made specifically for Nintendo fans. That’s where we come in! We here at Gamnesia are bringing you a new episode of “Nintendo Week,” a podcast made for Nintendo fans by Nintendo fans.
This week, Alex, Ben, and Colin are joined by Liam Robertson, also known as Tamaki from Unseen64, to discuss a whole slew of subjects. Our news segment includes some recent reports about a powerful NX console, as well as
Tri Force Heroes impressions, Chibi-Robo, and more. After the break we’ll touch on the rumor Tamaki reported that Shovel Knight is coming to Smash, who the Fighter Ballot characters could be, Retro Studios’ next project, and what’s happening behind-the-scenes with Metroid, Kirby, and more. This is a jam-packed episode you won’t want to miss! You can check out the episode below—or if you’d like to save it to listen later, you can check the latest episode out on iTunes, available now.
Nintendo Week is currently available on iTunes, YouTube, Podbean, and right here at Gamnesia, you have plenty of ways to access what we hope will become one of your most trusted ways to absorb information on all things Nintendo. You can subscribe to the podcast on iTunes for the earliest possible access to new episodes, or subscribe to our channel on YouTube for totally neato visuals.

And if you have questions about Nintendo that you’d like some insight on, please send those in as well! When we have a good number of fan questions, we’ll be answering them in one big block, so we’d love to hear some of your thoughts.
