WDHIY Episode 31 - Mario Day, The Big Arch, and A Week of Disappointment

Image
 This week the boys open things up with a discussion on Mar10 Day and how it generally means disappointment, but use that to springboard into a discussion of the games that first made a big impression in their lives. Not the first games they remember playing, but the ones that ensured this was going to be a lifelong hobby.    Wyatt discusses his first foray into the world of McDonalds in almost a decade, reviewing the much discussed and hyped Big Arch.  This of course leads to discussions of hype, the state of fast food, and why so many businesses require an app to get the "real price".    Backlog Buster Brothers brings with it Nick's first foray into the world of Pokemon, with Let's Go Pikachu; while Wyatt gushes over the early hours he's spent with the brand new Slay the Spire 2 on Steam Early Access.    Things wrap up with a joint review of the Will Arnett and Laura Dern Dramedy Is This Thing On?   The guy's discuss whether this is a new g...

Episode 30 - Childhood Movies, Dungeon Crawler Carl Pinball, and Nick learns Pokemon

Image
  This week the boys enter things with the best of intentions, and as is tradition, quickly get sidetracked.   Nick opens things with a discussion about force feeding his 9 year old media from his 80s and 90s childhood after several weeks of showing his son the classics of John Candy. Wyatt provides mini-Nick with some homework of his own.    The boys discuss the new Pokemon Fire Red & Leaf Green releases on Nintendo Switch, debating the package value, what it means to be a Pokemon fan in 2026, and how Nick has never played a title in the series.    Excitement is booming for the boys and their recently discovered love for all things Dungeon Crawler Carl. Fans of the series have plenty to be excited about as a new TTRPG, TV series, and pinball machine have all been announced. The boys debate who they'd like to see get the license for this beloved new property of nerdom.     Nick introduces a segment about Projectivity Launcher and usin...

WDHIY Episode 29 - 2-25-26 - Xbox is Dead, Road Rage, and GameTank

Image
Welcome back to another tangent-filled episode of the podcast! Wyatt is finally back from a getaway that tested his patience, and Nick is ready to toll the death knell for a major gaming giant.  Wyatt kicks things off with a potential Chump of the YEAR contender: a late-night drive home that quickly spiraled into a bizarre road-rage incident. Caught in the crossfire between two warring factions, you'll have to listen to the full episode to find out if Wyatt survived.  The boys discuss whether Xbox is officially preparing to abandon its hardware division. Triggered by the news of Phil Spencer's retirement and leadership shakeups involving AI executives, are MS going to turn Xbox into a SaaS brand?    Xbox death brings with it discussion of some odd new recent console projects:  Game Tank : A newly fully-funded, open-source 8-bit console. While Wyatt appreciates the retro homebrew community, Nick questions the $300 price tag for something that looks "3D print...
