  • Yakuza 0
    Nov 20 2025

    It’s time to unleash the Dragon of Dojima on this very special episode celebrating Yakuza 0! As the Yakuza games have now found their way to the Nintendo Switch, Mike & Neil wanted to bring on friend of the show Ali to discuss the games, their impact, and their future. Minigames are the name of the game here with some of the best pool, batting cage, poker, and yes even Mahjong sims you’ll ever encounter! Not only that, Yakuza 0 packs a punch with an 80s-style story of Japan’s real estate bubble and some of the best cut scenes you’ll ever see in a game. Whether you’re a Majima or a Kiryu, it’s all here on Switch 2 The Past!

    It’s halloween! which means it’s the perfect time to dive into some spooky games here on Switch 2 The Past. To celebrate the release of Little Nightmares III as well as the enhanced edition of the original game coming on Switch 2, we go back to 2017 and explore one of the most disturbing, beautiful, atmospheric, and unique games to come out in the last decade.
