Nintendo Switch turns 1, Aussies swap broadcast TV for small screens: Vertical Hold Episode 168

Did Nintendo do enough in its first year to get you to Switch? Speaking of doing enough, is the Australian government doing enough for the local games industry? All this plus the slow death of broadcast TV in the latest episode!
Vertical Hold is proudly brought to you by Belkin.

To discuss and celebrate the Nintendo Switch’s first anniversary, as well as provide in-depth analysis of the support (and lack thereof) of the local gaming industry by state and federal governments, we’re joined by Kotaku Australia editor Alex Walker!
Yes, it gets somewhat confusing to have two people called Alex on the same podcast. We’re also diving deep into the figures around broadcast TV viewing versus on-demand streaming, and whether there’s a future path for linear TV.
