Wii and Wii U as One Big System (Day 3412 - 3/29/19)

Previous Vlog (Day 3411) | Next Vlog (Day 3413)

The vlog starts out with Stephen saying that he finished scheduling all the videos for StephenPlays and StephenVlog that are going to be released while they are on their trip to Japan. He says that he still needs to help Mallory finish up some of her work and they also have some errands to do. Stephen said that they have to go to the Post Office and mail Mal's Patreon prints for their patrons on Patreon. He also mentions that the small box sitting near the front door is filled with duplicate games that they were going to trade in with Roland at Player's Choice. Stephen says that some of these duplicate games were sent in by viewers, while the other duplicates were games that he bought in Charlotte just to get the game manuals because it was cheaper.

They go to the Post Office where Mal drops off her Patreon prints. Then, they go to Player's Choice to trade in the duplicate games. Stephen says that this is the first time in a while that they don't have a new GameCube game to pick up. He said that he ended picking up some Wii and Wii U games. Stephen said that he probably made Roland happy by getting some Wii U games because Roland has been telling them for a while now to pick up some Wii U games. He then shows the stack of games he chose by using the points he got from trading in his duplicate games. Roland tells Stephen that he is happy he's getting Wii U games because it's easier to collect and easier for him to find Wii U games. Roland then says that they don't have much room for the Wii U games, so they should move to a bigger house. Mal asks him if he would help them move if they got a bigger house. Roland replies that he has a box truck, so he already expected that people would ask him for help if they were moving.

They return home and Stephen said that viewers sent in a lot of packages for March VlogMail. Stephen said that they were not going to record that mail video until they got back from their trip. He then says that they were going to put Wii and Wii U games together and consider it as one big system. Stephen says that Mal reorganized the Wii and Wii U games on the shelf to alphabetize them. He then says that he dislikes that he doesn't get to display games as much as he likes since there is not much room. Stephen explains that the only reason they are displaying Wii games right now is to give them a better idea of what they already have. He said that they will start displaying GameCube games once Extra Life 2019 is close.

Stephen comments that he thinks video game collecting is a good hobby for couples. But, collecting physical objects takes up space. He said that he hopes to finish the Wii/Wii U collection by November 2020 (Extra Life 2020). Stephen says that he is almost finished helping Mal were her work and when this vlog comes out Mal's new painting Stardew Valley - "Cabin by the Lake" should already be released. He then says that Alex and Hayley were arriving at their house tomorrow. Stephen said that they needed to prepare a place for them to sleep ath their house since Alex and Hayley were staying over for 2 nights until they all leave for the flight to Japan.
