Yes that's right, although we said a fond farewell to Felix and Zion over the last few months, Alex has now been joined by a brand new face over on YouTube: please say hello to Mai Ladyman!

Mai is no stranger to making YouTube videos, but she now joins Alex full-time as we storm into 2026. We've no doubt she will flourish as Nintendo ramps up its Switch 2 plans over the coming months and years.

Speaking of Nintendo, Mai is particularly partial to Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. On other consoles (yes, they do exist!), Mai is fond of Fallout 4 (hey, that's coming to Switch 2!), Baldur's Gate 3 (hey, that probably isn't coming to Switch 2!), and The Last of Us Part II.
