We'll have all this and more because this is Kinda Funny Games Daily. Yo, what's up? Welcome to Kind of Funny Games Daily for Wednesday, January 15th, 2025. I'm one of your hosts, Blessing. Addy Oye Jr. Joining me is Lil' Croy Poppy, Tim, Ma, Buggy, Geddes.
Bless we might be on the eve of the Nintendo Switch 2.
We might be. I hope we are. But are we, Tim?
I don't know. I truly don't know. I'm with you. It's like, I feel like we've gotten so excited. There's been so many, like, near misses. So many times where it's almost happened. But this time feels the closest to, like, there's more evidence than ever that it's going to happen. And, like, just so everybody knows, last time, Nintendo Switch 1, it was around 5 p.m. the day before that we got that little creepy Mario image. announcing that the things that see the nx for the first time remember the nx nx i'll never forget such a cool name uh but we were then introduced to the switch about 15 hours later in the morning all right yep it's 11 30 right now it is at 5 p.m today is little mario about to creep behind that curtain
I don't think they're going to have another curtain. But that's the thing is like, how do they even do it this time? I mean, just a tweet. That's all they need. It doesn't need the image, but like just a tweet, right? God, I hope they do something different, right? Like I like when Nintendo is weird and they surprise us. And like, I like when it's, because we always look for patterns. Like that's the thing that me and you have in common is that we're always trying to find the patterns. Nintendo, like oftentimes there are a company of patterns, right? Every February, you're getting a direct.
You're getting the Pokemon presents for sure.
Exactly. But we also know Nintendo for their weird Nintendo decisions. And so it's like, for me, I am looking for the thing that is unexpected. What's the thing that we didn't come up with? The thing that we didn't think of that's going to come through and have us like, ah, shit. Yeah. Unique technique in the chat says, I'm hurting for the curtain. I'm hurting for the curtain. I'm with you. I'm with you right there. I know that maybe this evening when we get to it and they're like, hey, tune in tomorrow. It's finally going to feel like, okay, cool. It's happening. But I think because it is all... speculation reports, conjecture, right? Like people like very well informed people being like, this is one of the, this thing is going to happen, right? Like,
I'm confident, but there is something that feels off.
Let's just break down where we're at, everybody. Let's break it down. All right, here's the situation. We have Nate the Hate, reputable. A reputable source of information. Doesn't always get things right, but often gets things right. Yep. As far as I know, that's the only real source saying it's going to be tomorrow. However, BGC, Jeff Grubb. seem to be believing this and they are smart people not just very well believing it but they're like correct like corroborating yeah corroborating with their sources on it so it's like all right there's that you add on top of that nintendo has said officially we will see and know about this system before the end of the financial quarter so we are running out of time that's true so if not tomorrow it has to be in the next two months so why not tomorrow
You know what? When you put it that way, I can't argue against that.
Why not tomorrow? Yeah. Yeah. So that's where I'm at. But I was thinking I was in the shower today. It was a really nice warm shower. I have this new little Bluetooth play previous track, next track volume thing in my shower. So now I get to control the music from in the shower. I love that for you. It's fantastic, okay? I'm sitting pretty, feeling good, thinking about the Nintendo Switch 2 being announced tomorrow. Like you do. But then thinking if it's announced tomorrow, that means in the next couple months we're going to get to play it. Oh, you think so? We get our hands on it? I mean, think about it, right? Yeah.
