Episode 244

The Nintendo Wii, regardless of how a lot of enthusiasts feel about the direction of Nintendo at the time, was a hugely influential and successful console that shaped the trajectory of the industry in the late 2000s/early 2010s. Today, we take a look back and each go through our top 5 Wii games. As always, we conclude with the games we're playing (Cairn, Hitman: World of Assassination). This episode was recorded in February 2026. Intro and outro music composed for Gametalk by Dylan Chase.
