Summary

This week! We take half the episode to remember Nintendo’s Wii system - king of the last generation sales-wise, but a machine that perhaps won’t be as warmly regarded as the competitors it bested in the long run. But first we talk about the game tapes we have been playing, including Sonic the Hedgehog 3D, Ratchet & Clank Into the Nexus, Steamworld Dig (PC), and more. BTW our voicemail line has returned. Why not leave us a message? (234) 752-9123 – tell us about your experiences with the PS4 or Xbox One.

And check out Greg's web series Generation 16 (Episode 10 now available) - click here. And take a trip over to Phil's YouTube Channel to see some awesome retro game vids.
