IGN UK Podcast #559: The Manic Marsupial and Jesse's Voice Changer

-
The manic marsupial, AKA Crash Bandicoot is back, and because he forgot to press record the first time; so is Dale with a second go at explaining all his thoughts on the game. Jesse is also on and has been playing a ton of Star Wars: Squadrons. In other news, he also has a new voice changer toy that distracts us for a good 30 seconds too. Cardy rounds off the trio by telling us all about his early thoughts of the Mafia Remaster and we also have an extremely tight round of The Endless Search that needs an action replay to decide a winner. It's tense stuff. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Preloading Has Begun

-
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom isn't out for another week, but it's now officially available for preloading. As of today, Nintendo Switch users who preordered Tears of the Kingdom digitally can now preload the game a week early as expected. Of course, it still won't be playable until the game officially unlocks, but preloading it now might help you jump back into the world of Hyrule a little bit earlier — as GameSpot pointed out, the file is 16.2GB. Some fans have reported difficulty with getting the preload to begin, but it appears there's a simple solution. According to Twitter user @PhantomxKairi, canceling the preorder and preordering again should prompt the preload to begin correctly. My digital version of Tears of the Kingdom is now preloading on my Switch! For those who don't see the preload yet (I used a NSO game voucher) cancel the preorder and preorder again, download will pop up! Can't wait for May 12th <3 #Zelda #ZeldaTearsofth

Animal Crossing Fans Are Obsessed With Its New Froggy Chair

-

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is getting a ton of new content next month, but the addition that has the most people talking isn't the major DLC expansion, Gyroids, cooking, or even Brewster and the Roost. It's the return of Froggy Chair.

Froggy Chair was the center of a late 2019 meme that took over the Animal Crossing fandom leading up to the release of New Horizons in March 2020. It started when Tumblr user garbuge posted a meme including Froggy Chair and its price of 1,440 bells, with the MCU's Thanos underneath, saying, "A small price to pay for froggy chair." The meme is a play on Thanos' quote, "a small price to pay for salvation."

Shortly after, the meme made another appearance on Reddit, when user Sebastian_Kackmann posted another Froggy Chair/Thanos crossover in the Animal Crossing subreddit.

When marketing for New Horizons picked up, so did the meme. Every Animal Crossing news release was flooded with frog emojis and Froggy Chair references. Twitter also took hold of the trend and didn't let go.

Then, after all the hype, the unthinkable happened: Froggy Chair wasn't in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. The chair had been a part of every mainline Animal Crossing until New Horizons, appearing the franchise's entries on GameCube, DS, Wii, and 3DS.

Now, 19 months after the game's release, Froggy Chair fans are rejoicing over the furniture's inclusion in November's New Horizons update. In today's Animal Crossing-focused Nintendo Direct, the chair made a split-second appearance in the background of one of the homes.

The confirmation of Froggy Chair was enough to reignite the fandom that waited for this day to come. ACPocketNews on Twitter said, "FROGGY CHAIR??! THE DREAM IS ALIVE!!"

On the YouTube version of the Direct, popular Nintendo streamer RogersBase posted, "FROGGY CHAIR HAS RETURNED!!!!!" in a comment that already has 4 thousand likes. Another commenter, sammypigz, appreciated how Nintendo chose to show off the chair's return, saying "Nintendo knew what they were doing by putting froggychair in the background for a few seconds."

The big comeback is leading to even more Froggy Chair memes, as well.

Finally, thanks to New Horizon's furniture customization options, Froggy Chair can be multiple colors besides green, which is also getting fans out of their (Froggy) seats.

While it's certainly one of the fandom's favorite additions, Froggy Chair is far from the only thing coming to Animal Crossing: New Horizons next month. To see what else is coming to your island paradise, check out everything from today's Animal Crossing direct. It's also a good thing Froggy Chair made it into this update, because Animal Crossing: New Horizons support will wind down after next month's major updates.
