Hello, Team Hare and Team Tortoise! This week on NEP, Galen kicks the show off with his EXCELLENT Banjo (Banjo-Kazooie) impression. That sets the mood for the laughing/crying fit we have right after as we joke about how depressing Chocobo’s Mystery Dungeon gets in the late game, including some high-level Final Fantasy lore jokes. We then take a deep dive into Smash 3.0 where Galen gives some thorough impressions and we discuss all of the custom stages Nintendo’s cracking down on; Galen tells his horror story. Afterward, we have some chill Marvel talk because we just got a street date for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3! Then we get serious as we talk rumors from Nikkei about a Switch Mini releasing this autumn, and Oni talks the importance of accurate translations so as not to spread misinformation. And we tidy things up by discussing the growing likelihood of Switch releasing in mainland China, who Tencent is, and international business culture.

We hope you enjoy this episode, because we had a ton of fun recording it! We would appreciate your help in growing the show by sharing the podcast with a friend!
Thanks for listening!

At PAX East 2019, Nintendo concluded two tournaments – one for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and another for Splatoon 2. The Smash Bros. tournament was particularly noteworthy since it strayed a bit from community-organized events. Smash Balls were turned on, and items in general were allowed. Not all top players were happy about that, since they believe it goes against fair competition.

In an interview with Polygon, Nintendo of America senior director of product marketing Bill Trinen explained the decision. Trinen said that Nintendo was “trying to attract as many people who don’t normally play in tournaments.”

Last night’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate update was a big one. Aside from adding in support for Joker’s DLC, it also brought along a couple of new modes, including Stage Builder. Naturally, one of the first things some players jumped to was creating inappropriate levels, which were promptly shared online.

Nintendo didn’t leave these stages up for too long. We’re hearing that the Big N has been cracking down on inappropriate levels, so they won’t be as easy to spot online now. Some may initially slip through the cracks, but it sounds like Nintendo is committed to removing such content as soon as possible – at least early on.

As part of Joker’s introduction to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, a bunch of different songs from the Persona series will be added to the game. One of these is “Beneath the Mask”, a new arrangement based on a track from Persona 5.

We now have confirmation that ACE (TOMOri Kudo / CHiCO) created the new arrangement for the song. This group is known for their work on the Xenoblade series, and were also behind the arrangement for Gang-Plank Galleon in Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Vocals for Beneath the Mask are by original singer Lyn Inaizumi. She was the original vocalist in Persona 5.
