Great Nintendo podcast that catches you up on all the news and reviews you need. The hosts are fun and informative and while clearly love Nintendo, give honest opinions when called for. A must listen for Nintendo fans.
JTWNSC · Apr 2026
There’s a level of joy and optimism that comes from listening to Nintendo fans get excited and that’s why this is the only gaming podcast I listen to. This podcast is happy, it’s cute, it’s a bright spot in a dark world. Like Nintendo.
MadTimmy · Aug 2025
Have always enjoyed to show, but with Logan at the helm it is a must listen! Love all the other hosts too: Seth, Jada, Reb, and guests. Great mix of fan stories, game criticism, and industry updates. On Nintendo voice chat, they are clearly “playing with Power!”
JazzManIM · May 2025
I’ve been listening to NVC since the Jose Otero days and it’s unbelievable how instantly Logan has raised the quality level on this show. He clearly has a vision for the podcast and just has a natural talent for hosting. Still early in the Plant era, but he might be the best host the show has had in its history. Exciting times for Nintendo Fans and this podcast really killing it right now.
Skye Ranze · Mar 2025
This is a good show and I like most of the rotating panel. However Seth Macy is the worst. He is the most self absorbed, egotistical and annoying person on any podcast. When he hosts, it might as well be called Seth Macy Chat. He brags and humble brags about things no one cares about, even the panel of guests. To the point where it seems the panel is becoming uncomfortable about how much he’s talking about himself and/or things having nothing to do with Nintendo. And he regularly says he doesn’t play Nintendo games and just plays COD non stop like I did when I was a little kid. Other than him, love the show, keep it up!
