523: Playing With Classic Power

This week! We dig in deep on the NES Classic. Stories of acquiring one, discussions of Nintendo’s supply troubles, and questioning whether it’s a video game console or a toy ensue. Friend of the show Chris Baker joins us to talk Call of Duty and Extra Life, too. Join us, won’t you?
