Happy birthday, Greg's mom. Happy birthday. You know what I mean?
Why is Sony raising PS5 prices again?
I had a little laugh at my desk as I was writing out the cold open, specifically the last bullet point of Glenn Powell's playing Star Fox in the Mario Galaxy movie, because that sounds like such a mad lib. It does. Like, if you'd told me that a year ago, I would've been like, what do you think? But when you look at the Mario movie cast... I really feel like this is the least egregious of like... Well, I mean, like, the first thing is, like, Star Fox is the movie. That's the thing where I'm like, oh, that's fucking crazy. Glenn Powell's playing Star Fox? Oh, it's a Mario Galaxy? Like, every part of this, if you told me a year ago, I would have been like, no, you're lying.
No, no, I don't believe you for a second. Really? I think if you would have said this... Before the original, hey, here's the Mario Galaxy casting, or Mario movie casting.
What are the new developments in Zelda and Star Fox games?
Sure. Here's Chris Pratt. Remember our reaction to Chris Pratt? God, how can I forget? That's still one of my favorite clips of all time. It's still one of my favorite moments of all time during a showcase. One by one being like, oh yeah, Chris Pratt's in it. Also, we got Keegan-Michael Key. Also, we got, was that, did they have Queen's Gambit, Anya Taylor-Joy?
How does the PS5 price increase affect gamers?
No. Yeah, they did. They did. Yeah, she's Pete.
And they had Jack Black. Jack Black. Oh my gosh. Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong. What a blessed time. Charlie Day is. Oh, yeah. Charlie Day was the one who killed.
Remember? Yeah. It was a blessed time. Yeah. Now we're in the worst times every day. Something worse happens. How can the industry keep getting more cooked is what I would need to know. There's nothing worse that could happen. What's on the docket? Oh, shit. Let's just jump into it.
PS5?

What are the implications of the PS5 Pro price hike?
Just like Mike DeMeme said. Oh, Mike... Maybe it's Mike Duh Meme. Maybe it's Mike Duh Meme. But he uppercased Mike and he uppercased Meme. But he didn't uppercase the D. So I'm saying Mike Duh Meme. Birthday tax last year, I had a paint can. Today, having my first breakfast beer. Love you guys. And you too, Greg. Breakfast beer? Breakfast beers.
I feel like that just shuts down the whole day. Also, you were filling this in a beer. It's a cold brew.
Yeah, so you missed a little bit of content, I think. Where my son started calling these breakfast beers. And I was like, do not repeat that outside of the house or I'll go to jail. And then one day I cracked that weeks later, I cracked one and Jen goes, Oh, breakfast beer. And Ben turns to me and goes, don't worry, daddy. I won't tell the police.
That's really funny. Also, he can identify beer cans? Yeah. What are you doing over there?
What are the reactions to the PS5 price increase?
I'm saying, give me another one.
And then I go, you're going too slow, and I whip the empty out of him. No, that's not how you raise a child. That's how you raise a man, all right? For now, let's begin with what is and forever will be the Roper Report. Also, happy birthday, Mike Deme.
Five items on the Roper Report. The Baker's Dozer!
I'll reach for the fog, but it didn't go. Number one, Sony is raising PlayStation 5 prices by $100 in April.
