Maybe I can be on without him knowing... I'll just agree with things very quietly every couple of minutes.
DAAN: "Wait... Did you guys hear that?"

ANDRE: "Hear what?"

DAAN: "Every five minutes or so, in a polite English accent: 'Hmm, I agree.'"

ANDRE: "I think you're just imagining things Daan."

My first GameXplain video was back in 2012 during E3, when it was just Andre and Tom. Been a loyal fan ever since.

In case the Direct Mini was too short for you:





Both are around the length of the Direct itself!

These videos make me so excited about both games!

Mario Tennis looks a lot better than Ultra Smash and I'm more interested in this story mode than in Open's tournament structure, so that's good news.

I'm thinking Mario Tennis Aces will be a June release, right after E3. ARMS did the same thing and still technically counted as "Spring" because it was the last day of spring.

Releasing Mario Tennis Aces right after E3 will allow Nintendo to promote it with a live tournament at the show. And it will also give them more time to make the game and dole out updates.

Came late to the GX train, tuned out of most things Nintendo-focused for a few years until the Switch announcements/rumours late 2016 & early 2017 .

But yeah, since the Switch release and my burgeoning love of Nintendo returning for the first time since the N64 GX has probably become my favourite YT channel.

I love Gamexplain, it's the go-to channel for basically every Switch-3DS owner (super fast with their updates, game & watch, the discussions are so enjoyable,...), but i've to admit i laughed at this parody.

Man Derrick absolutely lost it in today's emerald stream. (not blaming him, I would've gotten upset too) Poor Flygon...

I think you've nailed the release timing.

Always a treat watching the analyses and discussions from these guys.

Mario Tennis looks a lot better than Ultra Smash
I had actually completely forgotten the Ultra Smash subtitle until it was mentioned in that analysis video. Just goes to show how much that game was phoned in; the trailer for Aces alone looks like it had way more care and attention given to it than the entirety of Ultra Smash.

I've enjoyed all of the Mario Tennis games I've played, even the oft maligned 3DS title, but I never tried Ultra Smash. Partly because it was 80 bucks at current game prices here and that's insanity for what the game is. At 60 I might have considered it (but more like 40).

I feel pretty optimistic about Aces though even if it's 80 bucks, which is highly likely. Game looks great so far. GX's analysis only confirmed this in my mind.

Guys, Derrick's video on swole Dedede has me in stitches. This guy practically deserves his own thread.



"Check Those Pecs" is in contention for the greatest GX video title.

Andre's enthusiasm for the Labo is pretty infectious, I gotta say



I'm pretty stoked for the concept, but wasn't sure if I was going to dive in right away. But I'm kinda feeling like I want to grab the Toy Con 1 bundle now.

Happy to see the GX crew is just as stoked for Labo as I am. This is such a blast of fresh air coming from Nintendo.

Would love to see a Labo analysis where you zoom in on the actual games. I know Andre is probably hard at work on it.

Gamexplain is kind of like fox news to me, ya kind of pop your head over to see what they think on a big event. If they love it, thats kind of their thing to love all things nintendo, if they dont, you know nintendo did something really wrong :P

Jokes aside I do genuinely like the guys there and their discussions, they have had a sub in me for a while

Derrick had to take this one since I ran over to Kinda Funny for a video, but it should be up tomorrow (or later today for some of you!)

That's awesome. Best of both worlds for me. I'll be sure to check out his analysis and your video with Kinda Funny once they're out!

Finally finished with the Emerald stream, Derrick pulled an Ash Ketchum at the Steven fight. Great Nuzlocke TBH.

I heard about this on the podcast. That's hilarious, lol. Bill Trinen is a treasure.

^ Same. Good podcast.

Also, it was awesome to see Andre on the Kinda Funny Gamescast. I was already hyped for their Nintendo predictions since they saved that for last, but 2+ hours AND with Andre? Amazing.

Aww thanks so much! Had a blast with the KF guys. I'm glad you enjoyed the Podcast too--I wasn't sure if I was quite feeling it that episode, but I'm glad that didn't seem to affect it :)

Sure thing man. It was a really good time. Reminded me of the EZA collab Ash did last year. I hope you guys continue to do that from time to time.

Regarding the podcast, your PUBG-Zelda conversation makes me really want that to happen. Please use your newfound Twitter cred with Bill Trinen to pull some strings, lol.

Nintendo, while watching Andre's Toy-Con project video:

this is why we're charging $70 for cardboard

Loved that "There's nothing to say" video from yesterday.

On times like this I would like them to talk more about indies on the eShop, their favourites or quick reviews. I'm sure there are many that spark our interests but we do not buy at release date.

A "Rare" non-Nintendo video from GX.



If the slow news week continues, I would be curious to hear an Xbox Games Pass discussion, your thoughts, and what it could mean for Nintendo. That sounds like a good podcast news item too though.

I never knew about Movie Pass until hearing about it on Real Talk. Now there's a Games Pass too. What a time to be alive.

This might be weird, seeing as Gamexplain's work is SO visual, but I'd love a podcast from those guys. Maybe it's just because I'm so into podcasting that I want everything to be a podcast but I think it could work and I'd happily listen to those dulcet tones on my commute to work.
