The year has ended, as the last podcast of 2016 was recorded last week, and released today. There’s much discussion that was cut out and saved for a future outtakes episode. Regardless, there’s plenty of show to go around, and the sound quality is also far better than ever thanks to Jonah getting a professional headset and mic.
This week’s news includes:
- Nintendo registers trademark that could point to a SNES Classic Edition
- Windows 10 may be getting a new “Game Mode” option
- The next game by That Dragon, Cancer‘s dev is not what you’d expect
This week’s Question of the Week is “What game in 2017 might you buy that you normally wouldn’t?”

In years prior, you’d have to invest in Microsoft and Sony’s solutions to get your fix. Now things are changing.
