Previous Vlog (Day 4284) | Next Vlog (Day 4286)

There are only 9 Wii games left before the Wii library is finished! Over the past 2 years, they have been working hard to complete the North American Wii library. Stephen says that they have received a lot of support from viewers who have sent in games and they really appreciate it. He says that they've been doing a lot of shopping at video games stores across the southeast and they've also had their friends shop around for them.

Then, he talks about how he has done various vlog updates about the Wii library over the years at different milestones. He decided to do another update since the numbers of Wii games missing are in the single digits. Stephen says that there are 9 games left that they have been unable to find in stores. They are missing 2 for 1 Power Pack: Kawasaki Jet Ski/Summer Sports, 2 for 1 Power Pack: Winter Blast/Summer Sports 2, American Mensa Academy, Arc Rise Fantasia (just the disk), Data East Arcade Classics, Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus, Shiren The Wanderer, Veggy World, Wii Sports / Wii Sports Resort - 2 Games on 1 Disc. Stephen explained that he has the case and manual for Arc Rise Fantasia, but there's no disk inside the case.

Stephen says that they did a good job on completing most of the Wii library since they aren't really missing any other boxes or manuals other than for those 9 games. He mentions that their completing the Wii library at a much faster rate than they did for the GameCube library. Stephen says that he still gets asks questions about the GameCube library, so he's going to answer some questions right now. They have all the disks for the GameCube library. They are missing manuals for Disney Basketball, Evolution Snowboarding, Pokémon Box: Ruby and Sapphire, and the black label version of F-Zero GX. Stephen says that they have the Player's Choice version of F-Zero GX though. They are also technically missing the black label version of Metroid Prime/The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker Combo, but it's so elusive that they've given up on finding one. Stephen says that he is leaving a link in the description to his video game collection for anyone who is curious about what games are missing or to see how the Wii U collection is coming along. He says that they have about 100 games out of the 160 games in the Wii U library.

Stephen says that the reason they collect all these games is for the charity event they do every year, Extra Life. Extra Life 2021 is in 2 months on October 23rd, 2021. Stephen says that people take days of work for this event and plan their whole day around it. He's had many people tell them over the years that the Extra Life event is like their Super Bowl. He says that people will even invite their friends over and make food in order to watch this event. Stephen appreciates it and thinks that it's a lot of fun that people do that. Then, he talks about how this will be their 10th year of doing Extra Life. He looks forward to seeing everyone there during the event. Stephen says that this year's Extra Life arrived so fast that it feels like they just did Extra Life.

Stephen says that a link to their Extra Life page will be in the description. He explains that you can do early donations by donating before the event. Stephen reiterates that people who are donating must include the name of the North American Wii game in their donation comment. He is looking forward to event and says that it's always really fun. Stephen can't believe that they are so close to finishing the Wii library. He says that he is going to put information for sending mail to them in the description for anyone who wants to send in a game they are missing. Stephen says that so many viewers have helped contribute to the N64, GameCube, and Wii libraries and they really appreciate it. He then talks about how they are working towards completing the Wii U library. Stephen says that they won't be playing Wii U games for this year's Extra Life since they are no where near completing it, but if things go well then they might play Wii U games next year. Stephen then sarcastically says that it feels great to have this incredible collection of "quality" Wii games.

Stephen says that the N64 library was relatively small with under 300 games total, the GameCube library has about 550 games, and the Wii library has 1,300 games. Collecting the entire Wii library has been a massive effort between him, Mallory, friends, and all the viewers. He is glad that they are almost done collecting it. He tells viewers that they should let him know if they have any questions about the event, the game collection, or any other little tidbits. Stephen says that he might at some point make a video talking about the Wii library, games that were hard to find, and games that they didn't see very often. He tells the viewers to comment on whether they would be interested in hearing him talk about it.
