What PlayStation Game Would You Keep In Your Collection?
If you were faced with the unenviable task of having to get rid of nearly your entire #playstation collection - aka the #PS1 - but were allowed to save one game to remain in your possession forevermore, what would it be?
If you've been on the channel for awhile, my answer should come as no shock - it's #Suikoden2. My favorite #JRPG of all time and I think #Konami's finest game. What game would you pick?
How Would You Show Off the Nintendo Wii Remote's Capabilities? (NOW WITH SOUND!)
You know, a lot of people like to kind of crap on the #Nintendo #Wii, and I think it's a shame because I think it's a really neat console. But I think there is a barricade to entry on it that the motion controls can be overwhelming to somebody. Not only that - but you can use the controller in different ways. It doesn't have to be as a Wii Remote Motion Controller. You can use it sideways as a regular, you know, retro controller.
So I was wondering - what game would you pick to show off the capabilities of the console and the controller? And for me, It's #PunchOut. I think it's something that is just a perfect blend of both motion controls and standard controls using the Wii remote or a Nunchuck and Wii Remote. You can also toss in the balance board, which I think is really cool.
But what game would you pick to show off the capabilities of the console and the controller for the Nintendo Wii?

Most Overrated, Underrated, and On The Money Nintendo Controllers
Which Nintendo controllers do I feel are the most Overrated, Underrated, and on the money rated controllers? Here's my picks - let me know yours as well!
And respect where it's due - I owe this idea to my dear friend Gary from RoXolid Productions - I am unabashedly stealing this concept from him.
Most Overrated: NES
Yeah, I grew up on the NES - that's the controller that got me started on the hobby - but that original gray rectangle is a miserable thing to play a game with. Tons of us fell victim to the 'NES Thumb' back in the day, where we got calluses on our thumbs using the +Control Pad or the face buttons. It's well regarded today, but man...my thumbs remember.
Most Underrated: Wii U
The Wii U game pad walked so the Nintendo Switch could fly. It was comfortable, offered a brand new gameplay element, and looked cool. It was fun, functional, and fantastic - unfortunately, as soon as it arrived it was DOA because Nintendo decided that the Wii U was a lost cause almost immediately. Maybe they should have tried marketing the damn console.
Most On The Money: Super Nintendo
The SNES is everything the NES wasn't - comfortable, functional, and nearly perfect. So much so that we STILL have controllers emulating those SNES layouts and design motifs. Shoulder buttons? That was the SNES. Diamond pattern for your face buttons? SNES. Ergonomic feel? SNES. We owe so, so much to the SNES - but since it's frequently thought of as the greatest controller of all time, I think that it's ranked right on the money by so many people.
What controllers would you put where? Let me know.
