This week on the NXpress Nintendo Podcast, Ty Davidson and Ryan Kapioski join Ricky D and Patrick Murphy to discuss their trip to E3, as well as their time playing Luigi’s Mansion 3, Pokemon Sword & Shield, Link’s Awakening and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order. Could this be Luigi’s best solo adventure yet? How does Dynamax add depth to pokemon battles — and more importantly, is it fun? Ryan and Ty spill the beans on how these games are shaping up so far, what makes Ultimate Alliance similar to a TMNT arcade game, and what out of this batch they’re most excited for.

The guys also fill us in on what the show floor was like, and which of the major companies made the biggest splash. Other topics discussed include Sony’s absence, Fortnite‘s crazy-insane booth, Digital Devolver’s wild E3 plans, Nintendo’s digital event, and what it is like attending the Microsoft press conference. All this and more!
