Despite not having a book club discussion OR a listener poll (sorry!), we still manage to make it to two hours due to a lengthy discussion of Pikmin 3, tons of listener mail, and lots of news-talking. Regular show, as always!

Let’s be honest: This is the game we’re waiting for for Game Night.
A couple of weeks ago we polled all of you to see which days and times worked best for getting together and playing video games every week, and today we’ve made our decision: Nintendo Everything Game Nights will be returning on Sunday, August 18th, at 4PM ET. Here’s all of the stuff you should know:
What: Game nights! We all get together (NintendoEverything staff, plus you guys) to play online games for a couple of hours every week. Just a small way of getting ourselves more involved with our games! On top of that, the event will be live-streamed for all to watch.
Where: On your Nintendo Wii U or Nintendo 3DS systems! Maybe Wii as well, depending on the week.
What games?: We’ll hold a poll every week to decide what games to play. If the same game keeps winning every week, we may force it out of rotation for a bit to give other games a chance as well.
How long? Probably just about two hours! Not a huge commitment, but enough to have some fun, chat with each other, and make good memories of blowing each other up with blue shells and stuff.
If you have any other questions, comment away! We’ll be here to answer.
I decided to take some footage of the The Wonderful 101 demo and edit it together to help some of you make sense of what the game really is! Within the footage is both explanation and review, so you’ll know what things work and what things don’t about the game prior to ever having to try it yourself!
Nintendo Everything has received confirmation from WayForward that Mighty Switch Force! 2 is coming to Wii U, but “it’s kind of a backburner project right now”. The studio hopes to make an official announcement sometime within the next few weeks.
Mighty Switch Force! 2 originally hit the 3DS eShop in June. PEGI rated a Wii U version just one month later, hinting at a potential release on Nintendo’s home console.
The first Mighty Switch Force!, released in late 2011, was initially a 3DS-only title as well. But for the Wii U’s launch, WayForward created a new version subtitled “Hyper Drive Edition”.
The video above comes from the Sonic Boom event yesterday. It’s low-quality, but it’s all we have at the moment!
Platinum Games has updated its Wonderful 101 blog with a twelfth post. You can find it here. Today’s update covers the various stages in the game.
