What a week. Oh, my God.

What a week. Oh, my God.

Yeah, it's rough. Obviously, there's a lot of bad. We're going to talk about a lot of that. But a lot of good. I will just say a lot of good in terms of friendship, in terms of companionship and fun. Me, you, and Roger in New York had a great time. Fantastic time the last couple days. Very busy. My voice has gone a little bit. I don't know how that happened, but it did.

We talked to so many people. We did. We talked a lot.

I was asking so many questions. Didn't get many answers. That's classic Nintendo. I want to address something at the top of the show real quick. I don't want to go too deep or too long, but just a couple things because now officially we can, embargoes are up. We can say whatever we want to say about this stuff. Obviously, I wanted to be here for the live reaction to the Nintendo Direct 2.

I tried my best to make that happen. When I found out the times were overlapping, I was very upset. Upset to the point that I was like, hey, can we not be there in the in-person thing? And can we just record our reactions in a hotel? And they were like, no, you have to be there. And then I was like, okay, but can I record my reaction at the theater.

Can we just put a camera under there and me, Raj, and Bless react and edit it and put it up later? And they're like, let me see. And they tried to see. And then they said no. And I'm not kidding you. I then begged them to allow us to do it. I have an email that in all caps I said, please let us do this. It is very important to me. And they said, sorry.
