Want to know what we think of eSports? It's a topic we're all fantastically ill-qualified to discuss, but has that ever stopped us jumping headfirst into a listener question before?

The boys excitedly await Super Mario 3D All-Stars imminent release, passing the time with games as varied as the ludicrous Saints Row IV, a smorgasbord of 2D Mario titles, the organically cinematic Sea of Thieves, a smattering of Apple Arcade titles viewed over the shoulder of Mrs Minty, and the STUNNING remaster of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2.

Then, our choices for the week!

Jonathan explains why Twilight Princess (the Gamecube version, mind, none of this mirror image Link nonsense) offers one of his favourite Legend of Zelda narratives. ('Bark at the Moon' by Ozzy Osbourne [1983])

Minty chooses the personal computer's Rollercoaster Tycoon, explaining how its gentle management helped him realise his real life event management skills. ('Love Rollercoaster' by The Ohio Players [1975])

Chris tells of the life-saving or perhaps life-preserving properties of Super Mario 3D World, Nintendo's perfect synergy of 2D and 3D Mario. ('Scatman's World' by the inimitable Scatman John [1995])
