Hi MinnMax, We’ve all heard of Excitebike, but I feel people forget that Miyamoto was the director, producer, and designer of the game. Excitebike is one of my favorite NES titles and the engine was used for Super Mario Bros making it surprisingly important in the grand scheme of things. There’s even a Mario version of the game for Satellaview. I’d love to hear about your Excitebike thoughts and memories.

Ahoy good folks of MinnMax. Miyamoto is synonymous with Nintendo, but imagine a scenario where Miyamoto knocks on the doors of Microsoft and Sony studios, does his enthusiastic smile and wave, and declares he is to direct one of each of their games where all his opinions and decisions are law. What game does each studio give Miyamoto to direct? And what does the end product of the game look like?

Hey MinnMax - what's something from high school that you learned that lives rent free in your brain? Bonus points if it's never relevant to your day to day. Thanks! ALEX

Recalling last week's discussion of the "brand drawer": I work at a liquor store, and I too have an equivalent brand drawer with various logos of distilleries and products. It's nice to have a wide variety to choose from for the daily grind. I am glad the brand drawer concept spans many industries. Cheers

I recently logged into my Switch for the first time in a long while and was promptly told that my username (Trapezoid) was not allowed anymore and I had to change it. I was quite annoyed as I’ve been using this name online since about 1997 or so. I get that there is technically a bad word in there, but I mean . . . Come on, man, it’s a shape! In honor of this annoyance, I’ve created a game I like to call “Is It Allowed?” The premise is simple, I put a bunch of names into my Switch, some of which were allowed, and some of which were not. YOU DECIDE WHICH IS WHICH! 1. Titmouse (Allowed) 2. Poppycock (Allowed) 3. Pussycat (Not Allowed) 4. Homosapien (Not Allowed) 5. Who’re you (Not Allowed)

My friend and started playing Diablo III on PC together and it has me wondering what first hour of a video game you’ve played the most? For me, it’s probably Diablo III or Borderlands 2 with all the different characters I’ve made over the years and all the different platforms I’ve played on.

What games did you try long after their release date and find that they were extremely your jam? Why did you put it off? I never played the original Dead Space because I thought it'd be too scary, but I wanted to finally try it to compare to the remake, and I LOVED it. Flew through it a few days (and of course then listened to the Deepest Dive).

Avengers had its final update. Looking back on the game, do you think the game was as bad as people made it out to be? I booted the game up to see how it was, and the combat is still really good. Yes, the level design is horrible because it’s a live service, and the enemies are lame, but the actual combat is fantastic. The story mode is also, pretty good. I think the media just couldn’t help but to focus on the live service aspect and Spider-Man being exclusive. Looking at the live service games that came after Avengers, I think it’s safe to say Avengers is better than what came after.

Good news bad news: the good news is my wife and I are about to close on our first house! The bad news is I have a large plastic bin of old game cases and I don't want to lug them around with me! The discs are safe in a disc binder, but what do I do with these cases? What do you all do with old game cases? If I recycle them, am I a bad gamer?! Help!

Do you think Miyamoto’s classic characters are iconic because of their character design, or simply because of the game design of the games they were featured in?

With Chris and a Kelsey on the show I want to hear their thoughts on game preservation. When do you think it’s time for a remake? Developers are seeing the success of remakes, especially with the revitalization of some early 2000s titles. However, games like the Cowabunga collection, the various Castlevania collections etc. have got me wondering. Does this seem like one of the better ways to start preserving older game titles for both developers and the gaming community?
