We're back on the pitch for maybe the last time, and man, a whole lot has changed since the Nintendo 64. We played FIFA 13, the only and only association football game on the Wii U, and we're digging in to the treasure trove of modes and features that this modern soccer title has to offer. We're talking realistic animations, extensive management options, complex player physics, and so much more; is it all a little too much for the casual player or can non-sportos like us find something to like here?

Next week's episode: Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2013 / Cabela's Big Game Hunters: Pro Hunts 

This week, we're discussing LEGO JURASSIC WORLD, the first of our many LEGO games on this show, and it's the best opportunity we've had yet to talk about Jurassic Park! We look at the history of the franchise, look back on the magical year when it was all dinosaurs all the time, and see how this one stacks up to the other LEGO adventures! Was it worth waiting 65 million years, or is it one big pile of shit? Find out now!

Next week's episode: FIFA 13

We've done our deep dives on games from Bond's heyday, but this week we're looking at the game that may have finally jumped the shark! We played 007 LEGENDS, a FPS that pays tributes to the history of James Bond by letting you play as Daniel Craig's Bond across six different eras of the character. Does Activision's shooter kill the franchise, or is there a secret gem to be found here? 

And if you want to hear us talk more Bond (like, all of it), head over to Patreon.com/ultra64pod to listen to our ongoing series about the games of James Bond!

Next week's episode: LEGO Jurassic World

Dig it, baby: this week, we're talking about indie darling SHOVEL KNIGHT from Yacht Club Games! This humble, spade-bearing hero helped launch a second wave of indie-gaming hits, and has become the unofficial mascot of the indie scene in the process! We talk about the game's inception as a Kickstarter-funded project, the multiple expansions and spin-offs, and dig deep into the influences that went into making this charming action platformer.

We're back, baby! New day, new system: we're moving on from the Nintendo 64 and heading out into the untamed wilderness that is the Wii U! For this inaugural episode of Wii Universe, we're taking an in-depth look at the system itself, the rise and fall of the console that was supposed to be heir apparent to the Wii but wound up being one of Nintendo's biggest flops. Then, we're buying a season pass to NINTENDO LAND, the pack-in tech demo/party game that pays loving homage to Nintendo throughout the years!

Next episode: Meet the Wii U / Nintendo Land!

This is it! We've finally done it: the VERY LAST GAME in the Nintendo 64 catalog! It's all been leading to this: TONIC TROUBLE, a forgotten platformer from the creator of RAYMAN! You play as a hapless space janitor who spills a magical tonic onto Earth, making all the world's vegetables come to life, so naturally we have to discuss the moral and ethical ramifications of that. 

The catalog may be over, but we're not done with the N64 just yet! Tune in next week for an extra-EXTRA-long episode where we look back at the entire show and unveil the definitive ranking of all N64 games!

Next week's episode: Goodbye, Nintendo 64...

It's our penultimate game for the Nintendo 64, and we saved a biggie. PERFECT DARK is Rare's high-profile follow-up to GOLDENEYE, and it's one of the most ambitious, technically accomplished, and replayable games on the entire system! Bennett Williamson and Scott Burger are back to help us discuss all the alien conspiracies, counter-operatives, and hidden slices of cheese Joanna Dark's adventure has to offer!
