This week's PB & Jason might be shorter than the rest, but it still tastes just as good.
What's in PB & Jason today? New Wii models, of course! Alongside those comes a preview of what to expect in upcoming PlayBits (*HINT* Ratchet & Clank All4One and Kirby's Return to Dreamland on next Tuesday and the following Monday, respectively).

This week's PB & Jason talks up a major issue for a minority of people: Meta Knight's Brawl ban.
Before it does that, Jason hits on some other recent news. Steve Jobs has passed away, and so the first few minutes of PB & Jason are devoted to some of the accomplishments he and Apple have made over the years, as well as his influence on the gaming industry. After a few minutes, the conversation shifts from Jobs to Apple's new iPhone 4S and what gamers should expect with it. Following all this, there's naturally some Club Nintendo criticism, and even the mention of the currently potential Republican presidential candidate and his relationship to Pokemon! Finally, after all this, Jason describes his perceptions of the competitive Brawl community and their impending ban of Meta Knight. PB & Jason 59 wraps up with the illumination of Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2's story mode.
This week's news-oriented PB & Jason also covers a little bit of Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2 and The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition.
While the title is based off of Namco Bandai's upcoming October release, Go Vacation, don't be fooled! PB & Jason is more than a summer stay at a resort or a monster. Also covered? Trenched, aka Iron Brigade, R-Type and the virtual console, Pietriots and their wall of diversity, the upcoming Playstation Vita Japanese launch, and the Amazon Kindle Fire!
Luckily, there was enough cowbell to go around.

This week's PB & Jason revolves around a real solution for Nintendo and its current market problems.
While there's a lengthy discussion of how I believe Nintendo can genuinely find an audience in today's video game marketplace, don't be fooled: PB & Jason has a lot more than that!
Two issues ago: Jason mocked the idea of a Circle Pad attachment on the 3DS. This issue? Jason is completely disappointed.
But first, this week there is a bit of discussion on a few other topics: Team Meat! Fox News and "green" games! Rock of Ages!
PB & Jason has been here for a full year! Join Jason for a celebration issue!
Please note, contents of the celebration issue will be remarkably similar to the contents found inside any other PB & Jason, brief retrospection notwithstanding.
In this issue: I gloat about being right about a Wii redesign and the drop of GC backwards compatibility.
Oh, don't worry, that's not all this week's PB & Jason is about, but it does take up a substantial amount of airtime. With it is talk of the recently announced Europe-exclusive PSP model, the PSP E-1000, along with a little bit of analysis of what it means to drop the PSP's wifi capabilities.
Bonus content not included.
It's the 50th issue of PB & Jason! Celebrate the show's mega-normal issue by listening, TODAY!
