DESCRIPTION ▼

We're still dealing with post-Microsoft-buying-Activision anxiety here at Bigwig... but that doesn't mean it's still not another Big Week in Gaming for Sunday 23 Jan 2022!

With the fallout of that Xbox bombshell still lingering - we grab Mike's thoughts on that insane story, check in on how Nintendo's doing with N64 emulation on Switch - amd take a look at the new Cuphead Netflix show trailer.

We also (finally) revisit Donkey Kong Country 2 for our 1995 Game of Some Other Year series... and Mike treats us to a special retrospective only fitting for Episode #069. What will it be? Tune in to find out...

So pony up the dollarydoos and acquire these hot headlines:

▸ Is Nintendo finally fixing their shoddy Switch N64 emulation?

▸ We take a look at Game of Some Other Year nominee Donkey Kong Country 2

▸ And Mike is back with a special spicy retrospective
