Our five-year journey has come to an end! This week, we're looking back at Wii Universe with an epic-length retrospective of the series. We're giving our definitive final ranking of all Wii U games, sharing some stats and stories from throughout the show, and generally just trying to fight back the tears.

Thank you, thank you, thank you once again to our incredible listeners for coming on this goofy little adventure with us for the last five years, and we'll see you again down the line!

This is it! After dozens of games and hundreds of hours of gameplay, we've arrived at the VERY LAST GAME in the Wii U catalog! To celebrate this momentous event, we had to bring in some of our favorite guests for one of the most influential games of the last decade! The entire Vidjagame Apocalypse crew (Matthew Allen, Chris Antista, and Mikel Reparaz) join us to talk LEGEND OF ZELDA: BREATH OF THE WILD. This game dropped day-and-date with the release of the Switch, so the Wii U version tends to be overlooked, but it can't be denied that this game forever changed how we think about ZELDA and reinvented how we approach open-world games. Join us as we dig in to this massive adventure, and be sure to come back next week for our FOUR-HOUR final episode spectacular!

Next week: FINAL EPISODE!

This week, we're taking a leap of faith with one of the biggest franchises of the last 20 years! Ubisoft's ASSASSIN'S CREED series became a cultural phenomenon when it debuted in 2007, with each subsequent game only getting bigger. We're looking at the two Wii U entries this week: first, we're travelling back to the American Revolution-set ASSASSIN'S CREED III; then, it's all aboard for the golden age of piracy with the swashbuckling ASSASSIN'S CREED IV: BLACK FLAG!

Next week's episode: Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

The PAPER MARIO series made it's big debut back in the N64 games, and it was one of our highest-rated titles on that entire system. But over the years, the series has lost some of it's luster as it drifted a bit from it's RPG mechanics. PAPER MARIO: COLOR SPLASH may be almost unrecognizable as an RPG, but how does it stand on its own merits? We're digging into that this week, with this colorful, gorgeous-looking adventure!

Next week's episode: Assassin's Creed III/ Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

Crank up your flashlights and keep your cricket bats at the ready, because this week we're travelling to foggy London to take on the zombie apocalypse with Ubisoft's ZOMBIU! This launch game set out to be Ubi's Wii U killer app, and uses the GamePad in some of the most creative ways we've seen so far; do the game's ambitious survival mechanics make it memorable, or is this just one more for the zombie horde?
