This week on Nintendo Pow Block:
This week, Edward Varnell and Corey Dirrig discuss Mario Kart World winning Best Nintendo Switch 2 Game at Gamescom 2025, alongside Donkey Kong Bananza earning Best Gameplay and Hollow Knight: Silksong taking home Best Trailer. They break down what these early accolades mean for the Switch 2 lineup, with big exclusives like Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, Pokémon Legends: Z-A, and Kirby Air Riders still ahead.
The crew digs into Gamescom reveals including Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition performance concerns, Final Fantasy VII Remake running at 40fps on Switch 2, and the surprise announcement that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will arrive on the console in 2026. They also react to the Kirby Air Riders Direct, which showcased new riders, City Trial’s return, and a November launch date.
Rounding out the show, Edward and Corey cover fresh reveals: Pokémon Legends: Z-A adding Mega Victreebel, Yooka-Replaylee getting a physical edition, Overwatch 2 x Persona 5 collaboration, and Nightdive’s push to revive Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem. Plus, they dive into the spotted ESRB rating for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and what it signals for the long-awaited release.
