Dad Court: Minecraft Mayhem, Backlog Betrayals, and the Temptation of Oblivion | New Dad Gaming Ep. 359
This week on New Dad Gaming , Trevor and Jeff hold a special session of Dad Court to determine if their backlog challenge has been broken—or if there’s still hope for their gaming honor. Spoiler: Jeff may have withheld some crucial evidence… Jeff confesses to a near-miss after buying (and refunding) Elite Dangerous over a cockpit color mod—but later drops the bomb that he bought the Oblivion Remaster . Can the court forgive a purchase that feels so right ? Trevor also stands trial for getting dangerously close to a Switch 2 pre-order while helping his brother secure one during the pre-order madness. Temptation is real, gaming dads. Also in this episode: Minecraft movie thoughts (like a fun, chaotic SNL skit) The fear of Minecraft theater chaos and TikTok popcorn wars Why Oblivion Remaster has restored faith in Bethesda (for now) Why sticking to your backlog is so hard when the glow-ups look this good The looming reality of $100 Switch 2 games Subscribe to the Podcast! 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/new-dad-gaming/id1107330772 🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/434cj9ksKBnX6aY2aBZ6Uw 🎧 Other Platforms: https://newdadgaming.com/ Tags: #NewDadGaming #GamingDads #DadCourt #MinecraftMovie #Switch2 #OblivionRemaster #BacklogChallenge #GamingBacklog #NoNewGamesChallenge #ParentingAndGaming #ElderScrolls #MinecraftPopcornChaos

Minecraft Movie Madness, Missed Projects, and Surprise Nerf Birthdays | New Dad Gaming Ep. 358
This week on New Dad Gaming , Jeff and Trevor trade parenting war stories as they navigate teenage moods, missed school projects, and the absolute chaos of Minecraft movie culture. From last-minute movie plans to self-imposed consequences, the dads explore how to discipline with empathy—and hold the line when games are on the line. Jeff recounts how a missed project turned into a teachable moment (and a canceled Minecraft movie trip), while Trevor pulls back game time after surprise bad grades. Both dads are impressed by how their kids accepted the consequences—grumpy but mature—and reflect on how modern parenting is shifting away from the old-school punishment roulette. But the surprises don’t end there. Jeff battles venue limbo while planning a private Minecraft movie birthday party—dodging popcorn-throwing trends and last-minute confirmations from a theater that seemingly doesn’t want his money. Meanwhile, Trevor gets played by his own son, who turns a casual Nerf hangout into a full-blown surprise birthday party with seven wild kids, Nerf darts, pizza, and loot bags. Also in this episode: The viral Minecraft movie theater chaos (what is a Chicken Jockey?) Old-school punishment vs. parenting with logic Jason Momoa as a “nerd”? Bold move, kid.

The Switch 2 Switch-Up, Mario Kart Open World, and a Surprise Elden Ring Successor | New Dad Gaming Ep. 357
This week on New Dad Gaming , it’s all about the Nintendo Switch 2. Trevor and Jeff dive into Nintendo’s massive announcement, breaking down the upgraded hardware, surprising launch titles, and some truly unexpected exclusives—including Dusk Blood , a spiritual successor to Elden Ring that’s only coming to Switch 2 (!). Has Nintendo officially won over the dad gamers? The new Mario Kart World gets a lot of love too, with an open-world racing mode that mixes Burnout Paradise vibes with classic kart chaos. From dolphin drivers to the iconic Moo Moo cow, Nintendo’s bringing the magic for kids—and the nostalgia for dads. Other highlights include: New features like Game Chat and Game Share that let up to four consoles play the same game without extra downloads. Switch 2’s game streaming, 4K docked output, and 120Hz handheld support. The long-awaited return of GameCube games, including Super Mario Sunshine , Luigi’s Mansion , Fire Emblem , and more. Launch titles like Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition , Final Fantasy VII Remake , Street Fighter 6 , and a Kirby racing game no one asked for.

AI Game Coaches, Elden Ring Redemption, and Letting Go of Teen Independence | New Dad Gaming Ep. 356
This week on New Dad Gaming , the dads are back in the saddle after a run of sickness, vacation, and dad exhaustion. Trevor returns to Elden Ring —this time without cheats—and finds himself rediscovering the magic of adventure, danger, and dumb deaths in FromSoftware’s punishing open world. But with limited dad time, he turns to an unexpected ally: AI game coaching. Using ChatGPT with a custom prompt, he gets real-time build advice, weapon comparisons, and leveling tips—all tailored to his skill level and playstyle. It’s a game-changer for busy dads. Jeff and Trevor dig into the future of AI in gaming. From Gran Turismo’s Sophie AI to Microsoft's investment in OpenAI, are we approaching a new age of in-game helpers, smarter bots, and system-level guides that eliminate the need for YouTube rabbit holes? On the parenting side, Jeff reflects on a huge milestone: letting his teenager go to a sleepover at a house where he hasn’t met the parents. The shift from full control to guidance, trust, and independent communication is real—and so are the growing pains. Also in this episode: Nostalgic memories of sleepovers powered by instant coffee and Halo Xbox’s leaked Steam integration tab and what it could mean for console-PC crossplay The dream of every game, everywhere—no more platform wars Subscribe to the Podcast! 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/new-dad-gaming/id1107330772 🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/434cj9ksKBnX6aY2aBZ6Uw 🎧 Other Platforms: https://newdadgaming.com/ #NewDadGaming #GamingDads #EldenRing #AIinGaming #ChatGPTGaming #SteamOnXbox #ParentingTeens #GamingPodcast #DadGamers #ConsoleVsPC #FromSoftware #PortableGaming #XboxSteam #LetThemGrow #GamingLife

This week on New Dad Gaming , Jeff barely makes it back from the brink after being taken down by the dreaded dad plague—but thanks to the Steam Deck, he managed to game his way through recovery. Trevor and Jeff discuss how portable gaming is perfect for sick days, and why handheld gaming may be entering a new golden age. Speaking of challenges, Jeff officially steps into League of Legends after watching Arcane —but is immediately hit with new player overwhelm, 170 characters to choose from, and a community that isn’t as toxic as expected (yet). Will he be able to hold his own in a father-son showdown, or is he already doomed to be carried by his kid? Meanwhile, Trevor finishes Spider-Man (!) but sets his sights on something much tougher: Elden Ring. With his gaming backlog cleared (for now), he embarks on a fresh journey through FromSoftware’s brutal world, seeking adventure, frustration, and a whole lot of you died screens.
