The Wii U barrage continues this week! In our first segment, Neal, Scott, Patrick, Mike, and Zach all talk about the third party games they've been playing for infantile console. Batman Arkham City, Black Ops 2, Madden 13, Epic Mickey 2, Trine 2, Little Inferno, Darksiders 2, and a whole bunch of other games get discussed in detail here. If you've been on the fence about what to pick up after Nintendo Land and New Super Mario Bros. U, this is the segment for you.

After that, Patrick, Scott, and Tyler go in-depth with the divisive Paper Mario: Sticker Star. Is the paper plumber's latest adventure worth playing despite a few hurdles? We think so!

Next week, we plan on doing a Listener Mail segment, so if you have thoughts about Wii U or anything else, click here to send them our way. See you next week!

If this episode doesn't have talking about dinosaurs and/or space, or dinosaurs in space then it is already half as good as it could be.

There wasn't a LOT of enthusiasm for my second dinosaur questions thread.

Oh god. The Battle Spinner is NOT luck-based. I mean, sure, you can get lucky, but it is absolutely, 100% possible to nail it with good timing. The trick is to learn the rhythm of a full round of the slot, and press the button after waiting a few turns to get a feel for when your desired effect appears.

At this point, I'm practised enough that I find it more difficult to time it correctly when slowed down compared to full speed. It throws me off.
