Hi friends,, Question for Kelsey: I've been rebuilding my N64 collection and have educated myself on common signs of counterfeit games. How often do you see people trying sell fake copies of games? Is there a particular retro game you see being reproduced as a counterfeit? Thanks! Dan

Hi Minnmax, For the Switch do you feel like there are genres/games that belong on a tv vs handheld games? Or do you simply play all your Switch games however you want? I personally see Mario Odyssey and Breath of the Wild as games I need to play on a TV while Pokemon is still the perfect handheld game.

What is the longest you’ve ever stuck with a game? I’m 2 months and 60+ hours in to Elden Ring and still going strong!

Hi Ben and the CLCs, have you tried Vampire Survivor yet?

Hey crew! I've been playing a lot of Lego Star Wars Skywalker Saga, and it's probably the best StarFox game we've had since... well... StarFox. Are there any games that are good versions of a different dormant series?

Hey CLC'S, Recently I've been getting back into One Piece and I thought of a fun game for this wacky series. REAL OR FAKE PIRATE. The rules are simple I give you a name and short description of a pirate and you say if they're real or fake Round 1: Who's Who, an ex CP9 agent turned headliner of the beast pirates Answer: REAL Round 2: Big Mom, One of the 4 emperors of the sea with the ability to bring inanimate objects to life Answer: REAL Round 3: Old Man Sanzo, Captain of the White Fox Pirates who has the ability to turn his body into fog Answer: FAKE Round 4: Scratchmen Apoo, Captain of the On Air Pirates who can change his body parts to musical insturments. Answer: REAL

Any baseball fans on the podcast today? Watching the Cardinals - Brewers game recently, and I was SHOCKED by the amount of video game music the Brewers used in their stadium, from the Mario death jingle when the opposing team struck out, to play old school Pokemon battle music during mound visits. Crazy! Anyway, my question is - What are some good "baseball games"? - that is, a video game that I can play on one TV, while half-watching a baseball game on another TV? So like a podcast game, but even less intense. Thanks y'all, love the show!

Anyone else hope that AA batteries become obsolete during our lifetime? I have so few devices that require them at this point that its always a big hassle when i have to replace them. Any other pieces of tech that you hope goes away?

A flip of the question from last week: what's your least favorite game that everyone talks about? (bonus points if you've actually played it)

Hey Hanson, On an old replay I heard you tell the old hide and seek story with Dan. Do you still play hide and seek, do you still stand by it being the best game ? What is everyone’s favorite game to play outside (tag, hide and seek, etc.)?

Hey there Benjamin Button and the demolition crew! I went to NYC for vacation in 2008 and visited the Nintendo Store. This was at the height of the Wii's popularity. The store had kiosks upon kiosks of Wiis running numerous demos. At one point i couldn't help but notice a group of, what I'd describe as, on lunch Office Bros checking stuff out. One of the Bros decided to play a little bit of Mike Tyson's Punch Out. I thought he was grabbing the Wiimote oddly but to my shock he started flailing is arms and punching the air as if thats how you control a 20 year old game. It didn't work and the bro just gave up and walked away. Anyway, do any of you have stories of games being played wrong?
