This week on All Things Nintendo, we’re diving deep into our impressions of the new Animal Crossing: New Horizons 2.0 free update and Happy Home Paradise paid expansion. Host Brian Shea is joined by Game Informer production director Margaret Andrews to chat about their early impressions of the new additions to the wildly popular game. Unfortunately, this episode was recorded earlier in the week than usual, so we skipped the news portion of the show.
The All Things Nintendo podcast is a weekly show where we can celebrate, discuss, and break down all the latest games, news, and announcements from the industry’s most recognizable name. Each week, Brian is joined by different guests to talk about what’s happening in the world of Nintendo. Along the way, they’ll share personal stories, uncover hidden gems in the eShop, and even look back on the classics we all grew up with. A new episode hits every Friday!
