This week on Nintendo Pow Block
Fox McCloud is leading the charge for Nintendo’s massive summer lineup as Star Fox returns on Switch 2.
In this episode of Nintendo Pow Block, Edward Varnell and Corey Dirrig discuss the surprise reveal of a new Star Fox game for Nintendo Switch 2, described as a cinematic reimagining of Star Fox 64 with co-op, multiplayer, and updated character designs.
They also dig into Nintendo’s packed release roadmap through the rest of the summer and into 2027, including Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave, Splatoon Raiders, Pokémon Winds and Waves, and Yoshi and the Mysterious Book.
They also cover the news that Nintendo is joining Xbox and PlayStation, raising the Switch 2 price to $499 USD in the US, slowing hardware forecasts, the original Switch closing in on the PS2 sales record, and concerns from analysts about a quieter year ahead.
They also discus the huge early success of Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, Pokemon Pokopia, Reggie Fils-Aime’s recent interview about Nintendo’s dealings with Amazon, Takashi Tezuka retiring, and more third party support.
