TCW Podcast Episode 240 - Nintendo: Playing with Mii & Wii   From DS touch-and-stylus play to living-room motion, we trace Nintendo's road to Wii. Nintendogs and Brain Age broadened the audience to parents and grandparents. After cold receptions at Microsoft and Sony, inventor Tom Quinn's Gyration motion tech found a home at Nintendo, and internal prototypes were so fun they became Wii Sports, Wii Play, and Wii Fit. The reveal timeline runs from Reggie Fils-Aime's 2004 E3 DS debut and "Revolution" tease, to a controller-free console showing at E3 2005, to the surprise Wii Remote reveal during Iwata's Tokyo Game Show keynote, and the full unveiling at E3 2006. Built on refined GameCube internals, the Wii favored low cost, low noise, and always-on convenience, with Miis inspired by Japanese wooden dolls (Kokeshi) and a channel interface modeled on a TV wall to invite quick, family-friendly play.   Iwata Asks: https://iwataasks.nintendo.com/ Nintendogs (DS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hb5j2v10eYs Nintendogs (DS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hb5j2v10eYs Brain Age (DS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EeU92dl9ME Donkey Kong Bongos & Donkey Konga: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64YSuP6G1Uw Wii Sports: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vp9l7J6w9iE Wii Play: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfz-l5GI-v4 Wii Fit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDfXealVJyg Kokeshi Dolls: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2NIA5GNvfo Nintendo Wii User Interface Tour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCU1gB3Xdv4 E3 2004 Reggie Fils-Aimé: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89GB6bC9_N4 E3 2004 Satoru Iwata Revolution: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33BGyhn_ryw E3 2005 Nintendo Revolution (Wii): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qt8CBYAnMYc Nintendo - Tokyo Game Show 2005: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdgW4Ox71fw E3 2006 Sony Ridge Racer!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaBUeINW_3s E3 2006 Sony Press Conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaWptXzfETo E3 2006 Nintendo Press Conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1Ldhg7swgA Wii Console and Accessories (E3 2006): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pOGKxFD1C8 Wii Commercials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLOccBorPsA Wii Would Like to Play: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBOFhmjTgvY Link's Crossbow Training: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHgyRGeUKxg   New episodes are on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: feedback@theycreateworlds.com  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theycreateworlds Alex's Video Game History Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com Alex's book, published Dec 2019, is available at CRC Press and at major on-line retailers: http://bit.ly/TCWBOOK1     Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.

This Week: We got another Nintendo Direct presentation, this time showing off some sweet new indie titles. Meanwhile, Microsoft has officially canceled the long-awaited Contraband, marking their fourth cancellation this year. Sony is also shaking things up, moving away from a hardware-first strategy in favor of a new approach. Plus, the Video Game History Foundation has something cool to announce! Gene Park from The Washington Post is back as we discuss the end of console exclusives and what might be the worst game to release this year.

Well, it was an interesting week for gaming with Nintendo unveiling their latest Indie World and the prize of that showcase was assuredly Mina the Hollower, and the best part was that a demo was availabe immediately, so Sean gave the game a whirl and he's defintely excited for October 31 to get here quickly. Also, Sony has fantastic PS5 sales, essentially putting them right in line with PS4 numbers, while their CFO makes some interesting statements regarding live service games and a "movement away from hardware and towards creation" that got hardcore gamers all kinds of nervous. Plus, Embracer brings back RedOctane. Are Guitar Rhythm games about to make a comeback? Microsoft cancels yet another game with Contraband getting the axe, and more!

After ten years, the Sony RX1R III is finally here. We take a look at this long-awaited compact camera from Sony and evaluate its specs and position in the market.

If Sony's recent fiscal report shows anything, it's that PlayStation is turning into a bona fide money printer. Yes, PS5 has surpassed 80 million units sold, and that in and of itself is a substantial figure. But the more interesting numbers reside in the financials, where the brand netted more in profit in a single three month period than it did for much of entire previous generations. That's completely insane. So let's discuss PlayStation's meteoric growth, what it means, and how Sony may be doing all of this with one arm tied behind its back. Plus: Media Molecule loses its final founding member, the new BioShock game is in trouble, Lost Soul Aside goes gold, Starfield is rumored to be PS5-bound in 2026, Darksiders 4 gets announced, Silent Hill F brings the franchise into an action-oriented direction, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Is PlayStation Plus fundamentally underrated? Could Battlefield 6 outsell Call of Duty: Black Ops 7? Are we on the verge of having to verify our identity on PSN? Will Colin travel to a nearby town to try and find life-sized box art of the old game X-Blades? Please keep in mind that our timestamps are approximate, and will often be slightly off due to dynamic ad placement. 0:00:00 - Intro0:27:20 - Derek

On this week's show we discuss the 2025 Value Electronics TV Shootout. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news.

The winning model, the Sony Bravia 8 II OLED (K65XR80M2) $3000, emerged victorious in a fiercely competitive field of flagship OLED TVs from LG, Samsung, and Panasonic. This annual event, now in its 21st year, is a benchmark for videophiles, retailers, and manufacturers, offering a no-nonsense, side-by-side comparison of the best TVs on the market.  The Value Electronics TV Shootout Founded in 2004 by Robert and Wendy Zohn, the Value Electronics TV Shootout has become well known for its rigorous and objective evaluation process. Each TV in the shootout is professionally calibrated and tested under identical conditions—same lighting, same content, and against professional-grade Sony BVM-HX3110 mastering monitors, which are the gold standard for video professionals.  The TVs are judged on picture quality attributes like color accuracy, contrast, motion handling, and performance in both Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) and High Dynamic Range (HDR). This year's competition was exclusively dedicated to OLED TVs, with no separate category for LCDs, reflecting the industry's shift toward OLED's superior black levels and color reproduction. The 2025 lineup featured four flagship 65-inch OLED models: Sony Bravia 8 II QD-OLED (K65XR80M2) $3000 Samsung S95F QD-OLED (QN65S95F) $3300 Panasonic Z95B WOLED (TV65Z95BP) $2000 US Model is Z95A LG G5 WOLED (OLED65G5WUA) $2900 A panel of ISF-certified judges, including display and film production professionals, evaluated the TVs using a mix of Blu-ray movie clips and specialized test patterns, ensuring a comprehensive assessment of their capabilities. Sony's Bravia 8 II QD-OLED won top honors for its exceptional SDR performance and consistency. Judges noted Sony's superior video processing, which delivered cleaner images and better upscaling than competitors. Kevin Miller, ISFTV president and display consultant, stated, “Sony's video processing is cleaner and handles upscaling better than Samsung's, despite both using the same quantum dot OLED panel.” This processing edge proved decisive. Panasonic's Z95B OLED marked its U.S. market return at the 2025 Shootout, narrowly winning the HDR category over Samsung's S95F by 0.01 points. Absent from the U.S. for years, Panasonic leveraged the event to showcase its OLED lineup, previously limited to Europe and Asia. Alex Fried, Panasonic's director of business development, emphasized the brand's renowned picture quality, saying, “It was great to be back in the shootout, reflecting Panasonic's legacy of top-tier performance.” Samsung's S95F QD-OLED came in a close second overall, splitting HDR category wins with Panasonic and performing strongly across the board. Its quantum dot OLED panel, shared with Sony, delivered impressive brightness and color volume, but it fell slightly short in SDR due to Sony's superior processing. LG's G5 WOLED, however, was a surprising disappointment, finishing last in both SDR and HDR categories. Despite LG's pioneering role in OLED technology and its use of RGB OLED panels from LG Display, the G5 struggled with color accuracy and EOTF (electro-optical transfer function) issues. Judge Chris Boylan, co-founder of Big Picture Big Sound, noted, “The LG was a little disappointing with some processing issues that lowered its overall scores in some categories. Some of these might actually be fixable with future software updates.” This outcome raised questions about LG's current standing in the OLED race, especially given its historical dominance in the category. Final Thoughts Sony's seventh straight “King of TVs” win at the 2025 Value Electronics TV Shootout reaffirms its position as a leader in premium display technology, driven by superior video processing and consistent performance. However, the tight competition—especially Panasonic's HDR upset and Samsung's close second—shows that the gap between top-tier OLEDs is narrower than ever. For consumers, this means more choices and exceptional quality across the board. Whether you're a videophile chasing the ultimate picture or a casual viewer seeking a top-tier TV, the 2025 Shootout proves that OLED is the technology to beat, and Sony's Bravia 8 II is currently leading the pack. Note - Hisense and TCL were invited to the 2025 Value Electronics TV Shootout but chose not to participate. 

* Exodus Story: The Exodus Story, the first album in Bob Enyart's study of the book of Exodus, explores one of the most thrilling stories in the Bible. For the first time in the Biblical record we see God directly attack Pagan deities and worldly powers. The book of Exodus sheds light not only on God's plan for Israel, but also reveals undeniable truths about man's reaction to miracles. Also hear Bob refute the argument that there is no extra-biblical evidence for the exodus. The exodus is an old story brought to new life in this unique examination. Bob Enyart draws lessons and truths that have heretofore remained undiscovered. Available on MP3-CD or download.

Sony's making big moves (and big money), Xbox is canceling projects again, and BF6 is already bringing the heat. We break it all down this week on The Nerd Chat — with Game Pass updates, Xbox Design Lab, and our usual gaming + food nonsense.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesWith the MCU's latest big screen offering now in theaters, as rabid fans, it only makes sense to look to the future, and apparently Marvel and Sony agree, as myriad fresh details surrounding the franchise's next film, Spider-Man: Brand New Day began hitting the internet all weekend. First, last Friday morning Sony released a 9-second video teasing features of Spidey's new suit, which was quickly followed up with a 23-second video with star Tom Holland, in suit, performing some minor acrobatics the next day. Finally, The Hollywood Reporter confirmed the longstanding rumor that Mark Ruffalo is reprising his role as Bruce Banner/The Hulk for the film, while Better Call Saul actor, Michael Mando, was also announced to be returning as Mac Gargan/The Scorpion.The Fantastic Four: First Steps continued its box office reign, raking in $39.6 million its second weekend for a $368 million total global haul. While far from a defeat, the staggering 67% drop from the flick's first weekend presents a significant loss in momentum and is in stark contrast with expectations, which were largely fueled by positive reception and strong word of mouth among critics and fans. Elsewhere, Superman crossed the $550 million milestone internationally, and Jurassic World: Rebirth passed $750 million at the global box office after 5 weeks in theaters, becoming only the third film of 2025 to do so behind Lilo & Stitch and A Minecraft Movie. Amazon MGM's upcoming James Bond film being directed by Dune's Denis Villeneuve, is quickly coming together as Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight has been hired to pen the script. Apart from Peaky Blinders, Knight has enjoyed a storied career on the small screen as a screenwriter, director and producer involved with projects such as Apple TV's See and Netflix's All The Light We Cannot See, while also co-creating Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? As far as big screen contributions, he wrote the screenplays for Eastern Promises and Spencer, which were both Oscars-nominated, and directed the films Hummingbird, Locke and Serenity, the 2019 film starring Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway. Considering candidates for our new Bond, as if we could ever get enough of Tom Holland, the actor went on record to voice his reverence for the role as the “pinnacle” for British actors, while seemingly disqualifying himself by announcing another break from acting in 2027.Per Deadline, Matt Smith has joined the cast of Shawn Levy's Star Wars: Starfighter in a villain role, set to appear alongside Ryan Gosling and Mia Goth in the film set for May 28, 2027. The House of the Dragon star gets another shot at the Star Wars universe after previously being cast in The Rise of Skywalker but ultimately not appearing in the final film.John Krasinski announced he's returning to direct, write and produce A Quiet Place Part III, set for release on July 9, 2027; no cast or story details have been revealed.Disney and Lucasfilm announced Star Wars: A New Hope will return to theaters on April 30, 2027, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the film.Aaron Sorkin has his sights set on Oscar winner Mikey Madison and Emmy winner Jeremy Allen White to star in The Social Network Part II, with Madison potentially playing a whistleblower and White as journalist Jeff Horwitz behind the explosive Facebook Files exposé. While no formal offers have been made, sources say these are Sorkin's top choices for the sequel that will explore Facebook's role in various controversies rather than serving as a direct continuation of the 2010 film.

Earlier this year, Chinese publisher Tencent revealed a new project so shameless that it belies belief. It's called Light of Motiram, and it's no exaggeration to say that it's a pound-for-pound carbon copy of PlayStation's vaunted Horizon franchise. It crossed the line to such an extent that Sony is suing Tencent over it, packing fascinating evidence that this title was likely intended to be Horizon all along. Is Tencent dead-to-rights? Other news this week includes likely massive overreaction to PlayStation's hiring of a cross-platform manager, updates on Amazon's God of War TV project, Xbox's dominance of PS5 sales chart with rumors of more to come, Warner Bros. dipping its toes back in the games-as-a-service space, fresh PS+ offerings, and more. To round things out, we then go to listener inquiries, as always. Is the original Metal Gear Solid overrated? What's happening with Insomniac's Wolverine project? Have payment processors gone too far in seemingly bullying the likes of Steam? Will Colin ever understand that Bob Dylan is still alive?
