Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Gamescom may be the most significant gaming convention and trade show in Europe (and probably the world following the death of E3), but Nintendo is a bit hit-and-miss with their attendance. They skipped 2022, but they were there in 2023, and, in fact, it was rumored they may have shown the Switch 2 for the first time behind closed doors while there. Unfortunately, it seems we won’t be getting a repeat in 2024, as Nintendo has confirmed they’ll be skipping the show in a statement provided to Eurogamer… "Gamescom is a great event, and each year we evaluate whether Nintendo […]
While he may not be as well known as, say, Jim Ryan, longtime PlayStation fans will no doubt recognize the name Gio Corsi. As PlayStation’s former senior director of third party production, Corsi spearheaded a lot of initiatives – he was particularly noted as a booster of the PS Vita and was responsible for bringing a lot of Japanese Vita titles to a worldwide audience. He also was responsible for jumpstarting interest in the Yakuza/Like a Dragon franchise worldwide after the series initially kind of sputtered out in the West. Corsi left PlayStation a few years ago and has worked […]
The Nintendo Switch 2 dev kit reportedly received an important update, according to rumors circulating online. As reported by Nash Weedle on X/Twitter, this new update was confirmed by a developer, who added that the tools now allow them to go "one step further." What this update changed hasn't been defined, but Nash Weedle speculates that the statement from the developer refers, among other things, to an update to the NVIDIA DLSS upscaler, which the console is supposed to support. 🔥Leak Express:El Kit de desarrollo de Switch 2 recibe un importante update. “Ahora las herramientas nos permiten dar un paso […]
The Nintendo Switch 2 is rumored to support NVIDIA DLSS, and it seems like the upscaler will be used by most games, according to rumors circulating online. As stated by Moore's Law is Dead in a recent video, according to NVIDIA sources, most Switch 2 games will use DLSS, although it won't be mandatory in any way. NVIDIA's upscaler will be used to overcome some of the system's technical limitations, as the chip powering the console, as highlighted by reliable insiders, won't be able to deliver the same level of performance as the weakest current-generation system, the Xbox Series S. […]
A lot has been said about the level of performance expected out of the Nintendo Switch 2 console, but it seems like the console will have a hard time matching the Xbox Series S performance, according to a notable leaker. Speaking on X/Twitter, well-known AMD leaker Kepler talked about the level of performance that will be delivered by the console's T239 chip, saying that there's no way it could perform on par with the Xbox Series S, the current generation's less powerful system. Even regarding ray tracing performance, the Xbox Series S would still come out on top. The rumored […]
The Nintendo Switch 2 price is expected to be somewhere between $399 and $499, although, in theory, Nintendo could even go as low as $349. Although Nintendo hasn't officially confirmed the existence of the platform, a lot has been said and written about the rumored Nintendo Switch successor - currently dubbed the Nintendo Switch 2. Last year we reported on the rumored specs of the platform, which is said to pack the NVIDIA T239 SOC with an NVIDIA Ampere GPU with 1280 cores. In a new video from YouTuber 'Moore's Law is Dead', these specifications are indeed considered to be […]
It’s widely expected Nintendo will launch a successor to the Switch in the first quarter of next year and one of the biggest questions surrounding the new hardware is, what are they going to use for storage? The Switch allows you to use pretty much any old microSD card as long as it has a transfer speed of at least 60 MB/s, but if Nintendo aims to bring their games more up to modern standards, that’s probably not going to cut it anymore. That said, the M.2 NVMe SSDs used in next-gen consoles and the Steam Deck may be too […]
Today was Pokémon Day, marking the release of the original Game Boy titles in Japan, and Nintendo and The Pokémon Company used the occasion to reveal what’s coming next for the franchise. The big news was the announcement of the next major core entry in the series, Pokémon Legends: Z-A, which won’t be coming until 2025. This means 2024 will be the first year in a long time without any new console Pokémon game, although fans may not actually be that upset by that, as many have been urging Game Freak to take more time with their games following the […]
The Nintendo Switch 2 is launching sometime during March 2025, according to a new report shared online today. Japanese publication Nikkei revealed in a new report shared today that the next console from the Japanese company, which was supposedly releasing this year but was recently delayed to 2025, will launch in around one year. According to the report, launching in early 2025 will allow Nintendo to secure a solid stock of consoles and have a good launch lineup featuring "popular titles." A March 2025 release for the Nintendo Switch 2 makes much sense, even financially, as the console would still […]
Yesterday, Microsoft formally unveiled those four games that are coming to other consoles: Obsidian's Pentiment and Grounded, Rare's Sea of Thieves, and Tango's Hi-Fi Rush. While the former two games are coming to PlayStation platforms and Nintendo Switch, the latter two are only coming to PS5. It is a bit more understandable for Sea of Thieves, which features a rather impressive ocean simulation that may outstrip the Switch's meager CPU capabilities. However, Hi-Fi Rush is not as intensive and also seems like the perfect fit for Nintendo's console. According to leaker Tom Henderson, the reason is that the game is […]
The gaming world is eager to get their hands on Nintendo’s next hardware, but it seems plans regarding the Switch 2 have been shifting behind the scenes. We recently heard rumors from numerous reliable sources that while the Switch 2 was originally slated for a late-2024 release, it has now slipped to Q1 2025, and it seems that may have a knock-on effect on how and when Nintendo reveals the hardware. These latest rumors come from insider PH Brazil, who was the first one to report on the Switch 2’s slip to 2025 (and was later backed up by reliable […]
When exactly are we going to be getting our hands on Nintendo’s next hardware? We know something’s in the works, and a lot of assumptions have been made that 2024 will be the release year, but nothing has actually been confirmed by Nintendo. Well, according to a new set of rumors, the wait for the Switch 2 may be a big longer than some are anticipating. According to insider PH Brazil, who’s been the source of other recent Switch 2 rumors, including possible backward compatibility details, Nintendo’s next hardware isn’t coming out until the first quarter of 2025. “Nobody wants […]
