Time for Podcast Topics + Game of the Week!
🕑 Added 2019-03-07 21:08:05 +0000 UTCEpisode 136 of the Real Talk podcast is nearly upon us! As always, that means we’re putting out the weekly call for topics YOU want us to discuss this week — and remember, they can be about anything. You don’t have to limit yourself to just Nintendo or video game-related topics, so whatever your topic idea may be, post it in the comments below!
But more than just topics, we really want GAME AND QUIZ IDEAS! We are guaranteed to have at least three of us on the show this week, so we want you to try your best to stump us with a quiz — or perhaps even delight us with a totally new game idea. Just remember that we only have about 10 minutes allotted for the game segment each week, so please keep that in mind when posting your quizzes and/or game ideas in the comments below!
And as always, thank you for your submissions everyone!

Daniel Squeri Hey GX, I'm a long time fan who's been following you guys ever since Andre gave Sticker Star a poor review. My question for you all today is concerning the attitude that many gamers have about always wondering whats next. When I hear people talking about what a bad year for Nintendo this is, while I agree, I think its the wrong mentality. There has never been a single point in my life where I've felt like "welp I've run out of games!", so while less new games can be disappointing, to me its just time to play other games that I've missed over the years. Personally, I've had a great time with games so far this year playing the Steamworld series, Civilization 6, and Luigi's Mansion 3. Anyway, I'm curious if you guys feel the same way, and if so, how would you recommend the community learn to think about games differently?
It might require too much prep-time, but you could do a "Name That Tune" for video game songs. Derrick plays a song, then whoever buzzes in first names what game it's from (the specific game in series, not just "Mario" or "Sonic"). Bonus point if you can name which level also. Another idea would be to present contestants with a list of 5-10 games and they have to put them in chronological order, by release date. Or a list of consoles and they have to order them by number of units sold to date. Whoever got the most accurate list would win.
