The Weekly Stuff #344 – Marvel’s Avengers Review, Xbox Series S, Mario 35 Nintendo Direct, and more!

<p>It’s been a big couple of weeks for video game news, from Nintendo unveiling all their plans for Mario’s 35th anniversary to Xbox (finally!) unveiling the Series S and their next-gen launch dates and pricing, to another round of announcements from Ubisoft. We break down all of that and more, including a check-in on the state of movie releases in the US for the rest of 2020. Before all that, we also check in on how life is going amidst the ongoing pandemic chaos, Sean reviews the latest DLC for <i>Control, </i>and we talk at length about <i>Marvel’s Avengers, </i>the wildly imperfect but also surprisingly compelling superhero game that launched last week. </p><p><strong>Time Chart:</strong></p><p>Intro and Plaguecast: 0:00:00 – 0:25:08</p><p>Stuff: 0:25:08 – 0:47:13</p><p><i>Avengers </i>Game: 0:47:13 – 1:30:50</p><p>News: 1:30:50 – 2:44:32</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6QsXZYt12NIzF224GKBA0g"><strong>Subscribe to our YouTube Channel!</strong></a></p><p><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/wgtc-radio-we-got-this-covered/id535584943"><strong>Subscribe for free to 'The Weekly Stuff' in iTunes!</strong></a></p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/JonathanLack"><strong>Follow Jonathan Lack on Twitter!</strong></a></p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/SeanTheChapman"><strong>Follow Sean Chapman on Twitter!</strong></a></p><p><i><strong>The Weekly Stuff with Jonathan Lack & Sean Chapman</strong> is a weekly audio podcast, and if you </i><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/wgtc-radio-we-got-this-covered/id535584943"><i>subscribe in iTunes</i></a><i>, episodes will be delivered automatically and for free as soon as they are released.
