It’s recently been discovered that leaving the Wii U unattended for too long can brick the console. Apparently, none of Nintendo’s suggestions for fixing the issue have worked, nor does the company seem to care that much about finding a solution. It's a huge blow for video game preservation and collecting, as well as an ominous sign for the future. Will Nintendo soon be a company whose games are pointless to collect?
We'll also be discussing how the United Nations is about to host its first-ever video game event, how Blumhouse is turning Dead by Daylight into a movie, and the best video games for beginners and non-gamers in 2023.
Finally, class is in session with Professor Ryebread in our Gaming History 101 segment. In this episode, we're looking at the history of arcades.
