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
