If you're looking for a good quality controller for the Switch, then look no further. You can get the PowerA Wireless Gamecube controller on sale for just $36.99, which it originally goes for $49.99. Currently the deals are for the purple and silver controllers. You can find the deals below. Purple Gamecube Controller Silver Gamecube Controller Some of the other colors may be on sale as well. 🙂

That reminds me, I had a couple Sonic figures back then. Almost forgot about them. I think I even had some Sonic shoes back then, and I remember being more into the little patch that came with it lol.

I would have to say the most recent Battlefield games. I liked Battlefield 1, but then Battlefield V came along and things got worse. I would include Fortnite in there, mainly because of the building mechanics. It really gets on my nerves sometimes. You really need to be good at both in order to succeed and I just can't get good enough. 😞

That's a good question. The best gaming deal I remember getting was like 5 or 10 years ago. I went to a garage sale at a family friends house, and got a couple SNES games (The Legend of Zelda: The link to the past) and forgot the rest. Got a couple SNES controllers and a few other games, all for like $10. I probably could have gotten an N64 and a few other NES games, but I didn't jump for it as I didn't have much more cash on me at the time.

I agree. But I have a feeling it's going to do fine. The spider-man thing is a major blow, it makes Sony look childish. Especially considering that Spider-Man has been on an Xbox console, so them pinning him to just the PS4 version, seems pretty lame to me. I don't agree with them adding characters later either. It just shows they care about the money. Why not just have the whole avengers crew?

The last Handheld that Nintendo made, I think was the Nintendo 2DS, but I may be wrong. Either way, we haven't had anything newer than the 3DS. When do you think we'll see the next Nintendo handheld? I suppose you could argue that the switch is their new handheld, but I don't agree with that. I guess the Switch Lite may be their current one, but I still would love to see a new DS console at some point. Do you think that'll happen? Or will it be Switch from here on out?

Article Source: Digital Trends So good news, some games may not cost $70 during the next gen console gen. Take-Two thinks not all games will be priced that, they will go by a title-to-title basis. So yeah, maybe one game will be priced at $70, but their other game could be $60. I call BS on it though. I think once $70 price tags were brought up, more studios will just fall into line with it. Ubisoft says they plan to charge $60 for their games. But who's to say that will last down the line. We could see $70 become the new standard. On top of that, expect them to still throw us micro-transactions and loot crates and all that. What do you think? Will more studios raise their pricing to $70? At least in the US, it will differ all over I imagine.

Have you ever played a game so much, that it eventually broke? I think this has happened for just one game, and it was my first copy of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. The inner portion of the disc started to crack, and eventually it just came apart and was rendered useless. It also didn't help I had the original Xbox, and I moved my console slightly and it created a circular scratch on my disc. So that for sure added to it. But, it still worked until the crack happened. 😞 Anyway, what's a game you played so much, you ended up destroying it instead?

Do you guys collect any video game memorabilia? Maybe it's those limited edition sets with a statue, or maybe it's something you got in store. What are some of the gaming memorabilia that you own? I don't own a lot, but I got a SMB3 Poster, Xbox Hat, some figures, amiibos, and some strategy guides. I may have some thing I'm forgetting though. What about you guys?

I've wanted a Dreamcast for years. I remember the feeling I got seeing it in stores, thinking it was so unique and different. Sucks that it didn't do well enough in the States to stick around. Would have liked to see more consoles from Sega.

Oh nothing like account trading/selling. That is against the rules at both sites. The only things you can trade are physical games, or digital codes (not redeemed). Digital codes are sent through email or private messages I imagine, while physical games are sent out through the mail. Some other sites allow you to trade in controllers and other peripherals as well.

Sad thing is, Spider-Man is said to be PlayStation exclusive and won't be on the PC or Xbox One versions. Which kind of sucks because Spider-Man is probably the best of the bunch. Sure I'll take Hawkeye, but I still would like to see Spider-Man on all consoles. 😞

All these free games have to come back and hurt Epic at some point. They can't keep offering free games in the hopes people will jump to their platform. Steam still has more features and a longer history. Plus I heard Epic isn't very trustworthy with their platform as there has been privacy concerns raised before. It's possible it could one day overtake Steam, but I don't see it happening anytime soon.

I thought the trailer was just a cinematic one, but I see now it's like an interactive movie right? Kind of like that Black Mirror: Bandersnatch movie on Netflix? Nice to see them doing creative things with adult programming like this.

Many times people have speculated that consoles will eventually stop being made, and will just be another PC. Do you ever thing that PlayStation will stop producing consoles? I personally don't think PlayStation will stop. Could they maybe stop at a certain number? I remember back before the PS2 came out, Sony released some commercials for a PlayStation 9. I remember them vividly, and I don't know if anyone else remembers them. It's clear it's meant to be a joke, but it kind of feels like Sony hopes to one day get to a PlayStation 9. Here's the commercial:

Does anyone here have any unopened games in their collection? Maybe it's a game you never plan to play, or a game you bought and never opened. Maybe it's a game you hope to increase in value. I currently do not own any unopened games. I had a few for a brief time, but it was mainly because they were tossed into my backlog. But, I like to open new things, so I saw them on my shelf and figured why not, so I opened them. Anyway, do you have any rare games still unopened?

The Xbox 360 originally came out with a major fault, and that fault was overheating. The Red Ring of Death (RROD) was an issue many of the original Xbox 360 consoles faced. When it happened, it meant your system was overheated and it needed a break, thing is, it would never go away. Some people found ways of fixing it temporarily, one way (if I remember correctly) was to wrap the Xbox 360 in a towel while it's on and let it go. Supposedly it's supposed to re-heat some thermal paste, and in turn bring it back, but those who did it, still ended up seeing the dreaded RROD again. Anyway, did you guys ever deal with this problem? I had to send in my 360 for multiple repairs because of it. All of course, was free since Microsoft had to repaid any consoles that had the RROD problem. So, I ended up sending multiple Xbox 360s in for repair over that time frame. I hated it so much, but, it stopped as soon as I purchased the slim model. Did you deal with the RROD? How did you handle it?

I love collecting video game controllers. I have a bunch of them in a bin for various consoles. But what I most like to collect are the exclusive/special edition controllers. I have a bunch on the 360, Xbox One, PS2, PS4 and so on. I also have a bunch of N64 controllers lying about as well as third party controllers. Do you guys like to collect controllers? What's your most prized possession?

I don't usually watch Esports, but I know it's increasing popularity and I know many of the teams out there are quite famous. I sadly don't know many of the teams out there. I'm aware of teams like the FaZe clan and maybe a few others, but my knowledge on it is limited. With that being said, what are your favorite Esports teams? Do you have just one favorite? Maybe it's a player? Or, is there a team you can't stand? I know some Esports teams can be cocky and think they're the best in the world. Do you dislike some Esports teams? If so, which ones?

This looks like a ton of fun. Kind of reminds me of overwatch in a way. I think a lot of devs are trying to go for that feel I think. It's free to play. 🙂

I think you can go into private lobbies in COD, but I don't know if you can play with bots in any of the new ones. I remember Black Ops had a training mode type thing where you could play against bots and stuff. As for couch co-op or split screen, most games no longer do it due to online multiplayer. But, I thought the newer cods still supported that. Unless I'm completely wrong.

That's a lot of games. I'm going to have to make a list of all the games I've yet to play in my backlog. I'm just too lazy lol.

I've utilized craigslist in the past. Not a fan of meeting people to buy something though, it always weirds me out lol. But, if I see something I really want, I'll go for it. It's the same with Facebook marketplace, that's also an option and on there some people ship.

There was many rumors of Xbox trying their hand at handhelds around the time the PSP and again when the PS vita came out, but Xbox never jumped into the fray. Do you think that Microsoft will ever produce a handheld gaming console? I remember hearing in the past that they weren't interested, but times change. Do you think they will ever make a handheld console? Or will their focus be on PC and console?

Does anyone here frequent any game trading sites? I've only known of a few myself, one that comes to mind is gametz. Another is Leaptrade and I know there was a few others, but I think they've all since closed shop. The only two that I am aware of still being active is the ones I mentioned. If you guys know of any others worth checking out, please do let me know. I'm considering trying facebook and other type of sites for their marketplaces.
