*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Hello and welcome to episode 143 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! Today we're celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Nintendo DS by doing a full retrospective on this amazing system. We talk about the initial launch and reception, Nintendo DS facing strong competition with the PSP,  the DS games we worked on at Nintendo and our top 5 Nintendo DS games. There are so many fond memories of this incredible system and we can't wait to take the trip down memory lane. Also in this episode, we discuss the censorship issues in Xenoblade Chronicles X, talk about the polarizing Mario & Luigi Brothership review scores and how we feel about Nintendo not crediting composers in Nintendo Music. We also have been playing some new games including Dragon Age: Veilguard and Sonic X Shadow Generations... yes SONIC! All this and more is coming right up!
