Nintendo continues their foray into free-to-play mobile gaming on September 25th with Mario Kart Tour. The game will feature strange vertical gameplay and one-handed touch controls. However, the most concerning thing about the game, as with previous Nintendo mobile games, might be the microtransaction monetization strategy in place. We dive into what that is rumored to be on today's episode of Pretty Dece. PrettyDeceShow.com /PrettyDeceShow.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/prettydece/support
Marvel Studios and Sony have reportedly not been able to reach an agreeable joint deal to produce future Spider-Man movies, leaving his place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in jeopardy. Sony holds the movie rights to Spider-Man and has been producing their own Spider-Man films, such as Into the Spider-Verse, while also sharing Spider-Man and allowing him to become a member of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Now however, Sony is rejecting Marvel Studio's request for a new revenue split, and it appears the two companies are at a standstill. Have we seen the last of Spidey in the MCU?

Members of the Apex Legends development team are fighting back against gamers unhappy with the game's monetization strategy, calling them "free-loaders", "asshats" and other derogatory terms. Players have been flooding Reddit and other game discussion forums recently with memes and other discussion revolving around Apex Legends monetization strategy, which primary revolves around free-to-play microtransactions. Players have begun to feel that the game isn't fair and is over-prioritizing money. The developers are clearly frustrated with this opinion, Â because recently, in an apology thread to the community, the Respawn community manager and the Apex Legends product lead dove into the comment section, bickering and namecalling with the playerbase. Frankly, this is embarrassing, and not a good look for all of Respawn. On today's episode of Pretty Dece, we discuss exactly how we got to this point in gaming, and whether the free-to-play microtransaction trend will be continuing.

The world's most popular streamer Ninja recently announced he was leaving the world's most popular streaming website Twitch. Twitch has not taken it well. Ninja will be moving to MIcrosoft's Mixer, a much smaller competing service. Meanwhile, Twitch has been promoting other streamers on Ninja's now offline Twitch page... leading to Twitch accidentally promoting a channel streaming porn! The offending channel was quickly removed, but Ninja was justifiably  very upset about the possibility that children or anyone else visiting his page would have seen that. This pettiness from Twitch surrounding the departure of Ninja is just one in a long line of things that Twitch has done recently to make people somewhat uneasy about Twitch as a platform holder. In some cases they're behaving more as petulant children than as a website owned by one of the world's biggest companies, Amazon.

Control is one of the games I picked up at Gen Con 2019. It's a short, easy-to-learn, fast-paced card game for 2-4 players, made by Keymaster Games. Control is inspired by the classic game Cuttle, and in my opinion blends the simplicity of a traditional card game with the addictive head-to-head competition and evolving strategy of a collectible card game. It's small enough to pack anywhere, and games rounds only take around 5 minutes. If you're like me and have friends that are competitive but don't have the attention span or desire to be taught a game that takes hours to learn, or hours to play, Control might be for you.

Nintendo recently announced the entirely new, entirely handheld Nintendo Switch Lite, and now, have announced that the original Switch will see a minor hardware revision giving it a few hours of additional battery life.

Valve is adding a new section to Steam called Steam Labs, which is a collection of tools designed to improve game discovery on their platform. Ranging from auto-playing gif trailers to daily automated video shows, Valve is looking to solve the game discovery problem on Steam through the use of machine learning, a stark contrast to the editorial approach that companies like Apple take. Is Steam barking up the wrong tree, or will these Steam Labs improvements help you find new games on Steam?

WarnerMedia fully  unveiled their new streaming service today, now officially dubbed "HBO Max". Among original programming, it will be the home for all of HBO's shows, and the exclusive streaming platform for The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Pretty Little Liars, and Friends. Losing both Friends to HBO Max and The Office to the upcoming NBCUniversal streaming service will be a huge blow to Netflix, and needing to sign up for multiple streaming services to see the same shows you enjoyed previously on a single streaming service is pretty awful for consumers. Will the average viewer end up with multiple subscriptions, or will they simply do without? Only time will tell.

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle was quite the surprise, but I had no idea how they were going to pull off a sequel.

 The worst case scenario for many Netflix subscribers is happening: Netflix is losing the Office. Starting in 2021, NBC is pulling The Office off of Netflix to put it on their new streaming service. Will fans follow one of the most popular streaming shows of all time over to a new service, or is this a monumentally dumb move for Netflix?
