With how commonplace remakes and "re-imaginings" are in popular media these days, you wouldn't be blamed for immediately rolling your eyes at the news of a decades-old video game getting the reboot treatment. Fortunately, some of these efforts turned out to be surprisingly good.

We're not necessarily saying it's prophetic or anything, but when popular media gives us the likes of pro-wrestler-turned-mayor Mike Haggar, pro-wrestler-turned-governor Jesse Ventura, and pro-wrestler-turned-president Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho we just kinda feel like maybe it's saying something. Does our special guest, Phil of the Deleted Saves Podcast, agree with our wrestling-to-politics pipeline theory? Find out!

Who doesn't love a bunch of objectively useless crap to put on their shelves? Certainly not gamers; we are all about that junk. From giant PVC statues to replica jewelry, video game collector's editions can always be counted on to fill our lives with overpriced paraphernalia that we will cherish always.
