Welcome back to the Bros and Consoles podcast, where Michael and Nathan sit back and gush about video games they love, interesting topics in gaming news, and more! This week, the hot topic is the Nintendo Direct which aired on Wednesday the 13th, and brought Nathan back into the folds of Nintendo fandom with some great surprise showings! There was also a great deal of Sony talk, but honestly, when is there not on this podcast? ;)
