About this listen

Is Super Smash Bros. 64 secretly coming to Nintendo Switch Online for the Switch 2? In this episode of No More Respawns, we dive into the latest N64 app rumor making the rounds, and what it could mean for future classics like Donkey Kong 64. We also discuss the "gamification" of modern gaming and our thoughts on DLC, battle passes, and loot boxes.

We're sharing our recent plays, including Ben's deep dive into the incredible rogue-like Hades and his excitement for the upcoming Hades 2, and Ryan's first playthrough of the quirky and beloved RPG, Deltarune. Plus, we're still addicted to Brotato, playing Super Mario Strikers on the GameCube NSO app, and giving our thoughts on the indie RPG Sunderfolk.

This episode also gets personal, as Ben shares the story of being featured in a negative light on a major YouTuber's (George Kamel) channel for being a GameCube fan. We also highlight indie developer JacksonGameStudios and his new project, Sky World 64, and Ryan shares a story about getting gaslit. Tune in for all this, our recent plays in Nintendo Switch Sports, and much more!
