The Spectator Mode Podcast crew is back with a load of new topics. From Sega locking Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth‘s New Game+ behind a paywall, inviting toxic streamer XQC to represent its game, to Palworld, the Pocket Monster game that has been taking the world by storm. We also have a roundtable discussion on whether Nintendo is worried about the various handheld PC devices on the market, and Keith has fallen down the retro game rabbit hole… someone, please send him some help!
