Podcast: The Apple TV is a rumor to watch

<p>
Both Glenn and Susie use their Apple TVs every single day. So we're excited about the prospect of a hardware refresh—which, let's face it, is long overdue, especially if Apple TV is destined to be a HomeKit hub, and to get advanced features like Siri. We've got some ideas for the rumored Apple streaming TV service too.</p><p>
Later, we turn to the topic of what Nintendo's move into mobile gaming means for Nintendo fans, as well as people who haven't bought a Nintendo product in years. And it seems like iOS 8.3 will be out very soon, so we recap what we're expecting there, and the iOS 8 bugs that still, well, bug us.</p><iframe src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/197666278&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;visual=true" width="100%" height="450" frameborder="no" scrolling="no"> </iframe>
