Super Joystiq Podcast 091: Mario Kart 8, Amazon Fire TV, Danganronpa
This week's Super Joystiq Podcast thinks gaming is way more than a bonus.
From broody and serious games last week to cartoon kart racing the next. This week's show kicks off with Ludwig, Susan, Richard, and Mike talking about the Nintendo's next huge release, Mario Kart 8. Mike also checks in with thoughts on MLB: The Show 14, and Susan dives into the realm of Battle Royale-esque adventure games with Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc.
Also on the topic list: Amazon's foray into living room gaming with the newly announced Amazon Fire TV, and a preview of what to expect from next week's PAX East coverage.
