Mario Kart 8 Deluxe-AKA the gift that keeps on giving. This week on the NXpress Nintendo Podcast, Cameron Dixon, Mark Clairoff and Campbell Gill join their longtime friend on the Marty Allen Show to discuss Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Expansion Pass Wave 4 and much more! Mark and Marty break down all the new courses introduced in the latest wave of growing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Expansion Pass, which somehow manages to be even better than the last wave. The only question the gang has after this discussion is: What could be next? Cloud Strife in Mario Kart, anyone?
Marty then sails to review the excavator, The Lovecraftian fishing sim we’ve all been waiting for. Marty draws from his extensive seafaring experience (perhaps partly derived from musical theater) to review this satisfying fishing adventure in which actors venture into unsettling waters haunted by mysterious creatures. Rest assured: Scary as it may be, Marty confirms it’s a journey worth sailing.
Finally, Mark closes the show with an indie spotlight Storyteller, The latest experimental puzzle game from Annapurna Interactive. takes place in a fragmented storybook, Storyteller Tasks players to assemble the pieces to make a complete story. While the puzzles may be a little dull, Mark figures it out Storyteller It’s still a real page turner.
