Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash

The Wii U really wants you to know about Nintendo Direct. It's really important to it that you watch it in action and give it your warm encouragement. In fact it won’t shut up about it. Beeping and dinging and jingling in the corner of the room. Frustratingly needy thing. You know sometings it makes you feel like you could just.... oh shh shh, it’s coming over.

Hey Wii U how’s it going? What you got there? A suspiciously heavy looking lead pipe with Mario Tennis written on it? Better cut to the SaladCast before I listen to everything you could possibly say you wonderful console you.

To all those who went to EGX 2015, I have to clap my hands. Finally a show where the crowd isn't composed of annoying idiots who barge their way through to get anywhere, treading on toes as they do. You make music concerts look thoroughly uncivilised... which is probably the point in a lot of cases but I’m still impressed. See you next year my people.

Needless to say there’s a lot of EGX coverage this week but there’s just enough time for Zac to cover his tabletop adventures too.
