The Play Nintendo Show is the longest running series on Play Nintendo's YouTube channel. The series takes place inside the "Casa de Nintendo" and features various hosts reviewing Nintendo games and ranking things from those games.
Format
Every episode of the show begins with Andrew exiting the Warp Pipe Izzy inhabits. Andrew would introduce himself and the hosts before the hosts rank five or three things from a select Nintendo game. Reggie would then appear and would choose the game for a host to review (always being the game involved in the ranking earlier). The host tosses the script behind them, often into Izzy's mouth. The videos end with a dance party, Andrew reading select comments from the previous episode, and Izzy telling the viewer to like the video and subscribe to the Play Nintendo channel.
Starting with the thirteenth episode, the format was slightly changed. The segments reviewing the games featured in the episode was removed, and so was the segments where Andrew would read comments. These were replaced with Frizzy's Silly amiibo Theater and Ask Izzy respectively. These segments would get their own videos, episode numbers, and titles.
In some of the episodes prior to episode thirteen, a drawing of Izzy will be hanged on the wall, with help from a Hammer Bro.
List of hosts/characters
- Andrew Trego, the host that appears in all the episodes.
- Izzy, a "snappy" Piranha Plant who often serves as the co-host. During the rankings, Izzy would play out a scenario before the following number in the ranking. Izzy often makes the scenario rhyme with the number.
- Reggie Fils-Aimé, the former president of Nintendo of America. He has a higher pitch voice and suggests games for the host of that episode to review.
- Jenna, Andrew's little sister.
- Frizzy, a puppet Andrew created out of a sock and buttons in the fifth episode. They have become a reoccurring character since.
- Terry, a host who specializes in Pokémon games. Reggie often sends him over if Izzy is gone.
- Todd, a character who is only seen in the sixth episode.
- Andrew's grandfather, a character who is seen in the seventh episode when Andrew wonders what he was like when he was his age.
- Worthington, a robot who is first seen in the seventh episode. He does tasks for the hosts, but always apologizes for problems that are not that huge.
- Mr. Puddlepop, a pet goldfish seen in the ninth episode.
- Snowplant, a Piranha Plant made of snow created by Izzy in the twelfth episode.
- Myrtle, Andrew's aunt who runs an internet show titled "Myrtle's Mayhem".
