Apple launched the new M4 Mac mini with a complete redesign a few weeks ago, and we now have one of the first teardowns of the machine, showcasing what changes the company has implemented on the inside. iFixit is known for its in-depth teardown of Apple and products from other companies and provides how well it is designed for repairability.

The 4th of July is a day for jingoistic mythmaking and summer merriment. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate it than by grilling food, watching things explode, and ordering a bunch of cool stuff online that you totally don’t need but will still ...
The Switch may be at the end of its life, but Nintendo is still on the hunt for the platform’s biggest pirates. In a pair of new lawsuits, the console manufacture has taken aim at both mod chip sellers as well as the moderator of the popular r/SwitchPi...
A few years on, it’s oddly hard to remember how difficult it was to get hold of the most recent generation of games consoles. On their release in November 2020, both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X were incredibly scarce, thanks to an imperfect sto...
Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is an enhanced version of the 2o10 Wii game coming to Switch in 2025, and fans can’t believe Nintendo is charging $60 for it. The price was revealed in the new eShop listing and makes last year’s Metroid Prime Remaster lo...
Nintendo is working to beef up its security and IT training following recent reports of how major announcements were scrapped from YouTube’s backend ahead of major Directs. The acknowledgement of efforts to curb internal information from being exposed ...
This past week gave us no shortage of things to talk about, from just how strong the final year of the Nintendo Switch is looking to just how absurd the latest Acolyte controversy is. We’ve also got a hands-on with the gorgeous Dragon Quest 3 remake an...
Nintendo’s big June Direct showcase delivered the biggest headlines of the week, with its reveal of Echoes of Wisdom, a new Zelda game in which you actually play as the titular princess, as well as a new Mario & Luigi RPG and, yes, Metroid Prime 4. Rea...
With a new Nintendo console looming over 2025, the Switch is in its twilight year. It looks like it’s going to have a pretty great send-off, but it’s always bittersweet leaving an old system behind for the next new thing. Metroid Prime 4: Beyond will l...
The Metroid Prime 4: Beyond gameplay shown in yesterday's trailer was most definitely captured on the original Nintendo Switch, new information revealed in a new technical analysis suggests. Following the release of the game's first proper trailer, Nintendo World Report took a look at the game's resolution and framerate, revealing that all the gameplay sequences featured in it ran at 720p resolution, effectively confirming how they were captured on the current Switch and not on its more capable successor launching next year. While the resolution is low for today's standards, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond's framerate is already looking great, as […]
It’s funny that one day ago, just before Nintendo’s June Direct, we had almost no idea what the next six months would look like for the Switch. Nintendo has confirmed it will have news on its next console in the coming months, and that means the Switch...
Today, June 18, 2024's Nintendo Direct may not have had everything we wanted to see (sorry Silksong), but damn did it have some great looking games coming to Nintendo’s hybrid console. Yes, we got to see Metroid Prime 4, but there’s so much more. So le...
With a release date finally announced during today’s Nintendo Direct, Square-Enix has finally lifted the veil and shown off Dragon Quest III HD-2D for the first time in years in hopes of bringing the Erdrick trilogy to a new generation. While Square-Enix didn’t explicitly come out and say that they had plans for a trilogy during the hands-on preview, they noted that they wanted to start with Dragon Quest III chronologically as it was the first to come in the series. Nintendo spilled the beans during today's Nintendo Direct announcing the first two Dragon Quest titles also getting the HD-2D […]
