It’s finally here, the end of the week. And what a packed week it has been. Texas froze over, Nintendo nintended pretty hard, and there was plenty of other gaming news topics in between. With so much packed in, you know we here at Shacknews gotta let loose, and that means you’re about to get hit with another Dump.

On this February 19 edition of the Shacknews Dump, we have no choice but to address the Nintendo in the room. What was our favorite thing there? What was missing? Expect us to discuss in-depth everything that happened during the February 17 presentation. That’s not all though. Mortal Kombat has a new movie and it looks… very good?! (Where’s Chun-Li though) Also, it looks like if you want to get $1000 from Josef Fares, all you have to do is be legit bored with his upcoming game It Takes Two.

Join us as we discuss these topics and more on the Shacknews Dump at 1:30 p.m. PT / 4:30 p.m. ET on the Shacknews Twitch channel. You can also peep it just below.

Here’s the rundown of topics we’ll unleash on today’s Shacknews Dump:

• Mortal Kombat movie trailer brings blood, action, and fatalities
• All announcements, trailers, & reveals from Nintendo Direct February 2021
• The Switch's success made Reggie Fils-Aimé's Nintendo retirement an 'easy' decision
• If It Takes Two bores you, director Josef Fares will allegedly give you $1000
• Guilty Gear Strive: open beta early character impressions
• Guilty Gear Strive's rollback netcode is winning over FGC pros ahead of its open beta
