Hi Shane I know you're a big Penguins fan, did you ever get to meet Mario Lemieux?

Hey Shane!!!! My question is what is the craziest thing that has ever happened to you as a games journalist? -SIFTD Mitch

Hola Shane! How are you guys doing? I'm a fan of SIFTD and try and spread the knowledge whenever possible. My question is about Nintendo and the "Nintendo Tax." I see many comments from Nintendo fans (which am I) and they are confused or deny the existence of any such "tax." I won a PS4 and a Switch as well as the 2DS XL and 3DS XL and I know that since the N64 days, Nintendo costs more than other games! And the Switch because of it's proprietary carts costs more than necessary. Do you think we will be rid of the "Nintendo Tax" anytime soon? or Ever? #digitalgames4ever

Hey Shane. Keep up the great work! Question: How diverse is the game industry in terms of ethnic groups. I know this can be a tough topic for many but I ask because I was thinking about how the movie industry has NOT been so diverse in front of and behind the camera and I was wondering how the game industry compared. Thanks Shane.

Hey Shane. Hope you’re well and the redesign of the Patreon is going well. Also, that isn’t my actual question. My question is with Keith Flint, from The Prodigy, taking his own life is this another example of having money and fame not meaning people are immune to mental health problems? Listening to The Prodigy Experience turned my music tastes on its head. what is your experience of The Prodigy and what do you think their effect was on the global rave scene? What impact has UK rave and dance culture have on you and the US dance and rave scene?

What is the most selacious industry story that you are legally allowed to tell? Give us the real dirt! :)

Nice. I just upped to the $7 tier for this. My questions: What would you do to the Pokémon games to reinvent the series? Do you think Game Freak is hesitant to make any drastic changes to the formula for fear of backlash?
