Episode overview
Episode 807 of Infendo Radio arrives amid an active Switch 2 news cycle, with the podcast’s hosts rounding up a string of platform and game items that interest Nintendo-focused audiences.
The episode frames coverage around several headline items — an announced release window for Splatoon Raiders, chart movement involving Tomodachi Life, reports about Overwatch on a next-generation Nintendo handheld, a technical take on a Majora’s Mask recompilation report, and a celebration of the Game Boy’s anniversary.
What the episode reported (rewritten statements)
The hosts said Splatoon Raiders now has an official release date and encouraged listeners to check official Nintendo channels — such as Nintendo Direct and the Nintendo eShop — for confirmation and launch details.
They also noted that Tomodachi Life has seen renewed attention on sales charts, where it reportedly outperformed Capcom’s Pragmata in recent ranking snapshots discussed on the show.
Regarding Overwatch, the episode covered reports claiming a Switch 2 version is available and focused on commentary about achieving 60 frames per second in handheld-style play.
On Majora’s Mask, the hosts explored a technical report suggesting a native port tied to recompilation tooling and examined what that kind of work means for preservation and platform compatibility.
