I'm still unsold on the Switch, mainly because of how little I played my Wii and Wii U. But I played my DS and 3DS so much. Argh! Get your home console out of my portable! 

I think Zelda will keep people occupied for a really long time. I just wonder if it is going to be compelling enough with the open world format. I have yet to see that Japanese developers understand what makes open world design work, and hearing that Zelda's map dwarfs Skyrim's worries me. Open worlds are terrible if you don't put interesting things to do in them that don't feel like you are just checking off boxes. *glares at Final Fantasy XV*

I want to cosplay as Agent 47 if I can lose 60 more pounds. It sucks going bald. Not that I had cosplay quality hair to begin with-I looked like Hank Hill in my 20s. 

As someone who was working retail during the 6th generation, I find it hilarious that there was some sort of perceived console war between Xbox and Gamecube. The question every customer asked was "PS2 or Xbox?". The Gamecube didn't even come up as a choice unless we brought it up. Not saying the Gamecube wasn't great. That was the last time I was really in Nintendo's corner. It just did not have traction with the masses. 

Yeah, that one is high on my list. Even though the X-Men movies made me hate Wolverine, I will probably cry when this movie is over. Jackman and Stewart have played these characters for 17 years!

My first girlfriend would sneak stuff into the movies, and I being a habitual rule follower would freak the hell out everytime she'd open a bottle of Coke and there was that telltale sound. I felt like the ushers would swoop in from the booth and kick us out. 

I agree. There is something cool about having the house almost completely to yourself (I have yet to be the only person), but I like having a crowd. 

I know this is terrible to say, but Robert Jordan's death was the best thing to happen to The Wheel of Time. He had gotten to this point where every book was just piling on characters and politics, and I found it very hard to follow at times. Brandon Sanderson kept things moving at a good clip while somehow resolving everything i would have wanted resolved. I was surprised at how many people died at the end, but Mat lived, which is all that matters. 

I think they explained why that happens, but I can see someone missing it, or feeling that it wasn't a satisfying explanation. For me, I know what I'm looking for with movies like this. Are they characters cool? Is the action good? Do I leave feeling entertained? While I enjoy more cerebral movies I will never look down on a fun big budget movie. 

I can already tell I'll be spending a lot of time at the theater this year. My girlfriend wants to see A Cure for Wellness, we both want to see Get Out and Logan, and that's just the next couple of weeks. 

Ah, the Dobie. Sadly it is long gone, along with Einstein's Arcade and Le Fun. I avoid The Drag like the plague these days, but there were a few years where I loved going down there.

I enjoyed it so much that I really want to go back and play Gone Home. I own it but haven't played it. I also loved Life is Strange, which I wouldn't call a day in the life game, but would put in the ballpark. 

We currently record on the Thursday after the episode comes out, but yes, I will put a note in the show post from now on. It will help if we have to change a recording date. I think you submitted your last picks right as we wrapped up recording this one. :/
