"Fun" and Games Podcast

After the Wii, but before the Switch, Nintendo released the Wii U. Not just a touchpad controller for the Wii, but a console with its own library and its own identity. However poor sales, and the fact that many of its titles have been ported to Switch, leave the Wii U in the dust of obscurity. Matt & Gen are joined by Jacob McCourt for a console retrospective on Nintendo's lowest selling non-portable gaming system. The Gamepad provided unique and fun game experiences. Many fantastic series got their start here, or have a unique entry that lives exclusively on the Wii U. Lowest selling console, perhaps, but not least loved.

The Sega Saturn holds a strange place in gaming history. It sold fewer units in the US than both the Genesis and the Dreamcast. It's mostly remembered for all the "obvious" ways it failed. Yet, it's the best-selling Sega home console in Japan, with a library of games that rivals the entire Genesis ecosystem (including CD and 32X)! Matt & Geoff are joined by Chris Coplien of Retro Hangover (and the Patreon-exlclusive Saturn retrospective podcast, Io Saturnalia) to discuss the Sega Saturn's complicated legacy, the ups and downs of the console's construction, and many of the great titles that are still only on the Sega Saturn.
