Only the exceptions can be exceptional.
All right, here goes:

Round 1: 2 points. Castlevania: Rondo of Blood
Round 2: 30 points. Set 1 - F-Zero GX, Theme: Doctors; Set 2 - Banjo-Kazooie, Theme: Game Shows; Set 3 - Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy IV, Link's Awakening, Theme: Whales, Set 4 - Legend of Zelda
Bonus Round 1: 4 points. Star Ocean 3
Round 3: 12 points. Rare, Capcom
Round 4: 31 points. Sonic R - Can You Feel the Sunshine?, Civilization IV - Baba Yetu, Portal (half points), Persona 3, Super Mario Odyssey
Round 5: 21 points. Kid Icarus: Uprising - Dark Pit, Metroid (1 point, totally blanked and forgot the specific game), Bravely Default - Main Battle Theme
Bonus Round 2: 0 points. Really should've had that first one; knew the games but for some reason couldn't put them together. Should've gotten that last one too, but was thinking of the wrong Kirby game.

Total: 100 points. Better than I usually do.

Really fun show, looking forward to the next season!

Round 2: 33 points
2 Points for Name the Game, 6 points for Connection
+2 Mega Man X3, 0 not even bothering with Crash, +2 F-Zero GX, +6 THEMES OF DOCTORS FUCK YEAH DR. STEWART; +2 Banjo-Kazooie, 0 for TTYD, +2 Undertale +6 theme of a game show in the game; +2 for Kingdom Hearts, +2 Final Fantasy IV, +6 THEMES OF GIANT WHALES, +2 Link's Awakening; +2 The Legend of Zelda, +0 Mega Man X: Command Mission, 0 for God Hand, -1 for guessing openings for the theme, yikes.

Special question:
PC, if it counts. If it has to be a console, uhhh... the PS5? I got way more mileage out of Nintendo growing up but I can lose out on some of its more draconian policies at this point.

QotG: N64 with the caveat that the controller never wears down. There's more games I'd replay there than SNES by far. Perfect Dark, Mario Kart 64, Aidyn Chronicles, Kirby 64, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, F-Zero X, Banjo-Kazooie, Goldeneye 007, Rogue Squadron, Paper Mario, and many more

Net Score: 49

Seriously, that Subnautica track. Wow.

N64 would probably be my answer if we're talking Multiplayer. Though I'd probably go with PS1 or Switch at this point, despite my big huge love for SNES. I feel like I've just...done the SNES.

Here is the full Subnautica track:

Oh definitely! There's a lot more single-player games for N64 that I can think about replaying countlessly than any other system.

However, my caveat was a controller that doesn't break down or wear. N64 controllers are... really not good at condition-with-use. I think I would jump to the Gamecube if it were a standard as is. The library's good and there are games I can campaign for in longer, and its sports/racing titles are greater then N64's. But... there are so many disappointments? Like, N64's got its share for sure, but not in the main-brand like Super Mario Sunshine, Twilight Princess, Double Dash, and...

...

Oh shit. I just remembered Metroid Prime.

Oh and for the console question, I'm taking the PS5 easily. I would get new games for awhile, and then I have the whole PS4 library, including a bunch of great remasters/remakes (most importantly FFX)

One of these days I'll do a full breakdown of the points I get from following along, but today is not one of those days. I know I cracked the 180 mark though.

Not sure how I'd answer the Bonus Question ... GameCube was probably the console I got the most mileage out of, but there's so many games I want to play that I haven't been able to. Do I take the risk and pick something like PS5 where my expertise is limited?
I'm assuming picking "PC" as the console is cheating.

Yes haha. I mentioned that in the episode too.
This was a difficult one for sure, I didn't bother counting but did very poorly in the early rounds before picking it up somewhat in the back half. The Microsoft Sam song lyrics round was amazing! I'd love to see that one again or something like it.

Also surprised nobody got Dark Pit's Theme

You should definitely check out the S1 finale then! Its not song lyrics but it is famous VG quotes done the same way.
