Randomer Nintendo

It’s a Randomer Nintendo all about the arts: movies, music, movies about music, and quite literally, artwork. We share our impressions of the new Resident Evil movie, 2021’s prior at a Resident Evil movie (Welcome to Raccoon City), Linkin Park’s new Unshatter documentary, Coyote vs. ACME, and Sega opening up its archives for 35 Years of Speed: The Sonic Art Exhibit. Plus, we report back from Lorcana’s North American Championship and discuss an art all its own with our favorite TV and movie title cards.

Games that are movies. Mixtapes that are games. A WarioWare that isn’t a WarioWare. Everything is all topsy-turvy in this Randomer Nintendo! Some of the media we talk about it simple enough: our takes on Obsession, The Sheep Detective, and The Boys finale cover what you’d expect. But we also talk about Mortal Kombat II — the movie, not the game. And we share impressions of narrative-driven Switch 2 game Mixtape and Nintendo’s surprise WarioWare-style mobile game, Pictonico. It all makes total sense, right?
