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 […]

The Nintendo Switch seems to be leaving quite a bit of performance on the table at its vanilla clock speeds, judging from a new overclocking test video shared online. The video, which was shared on YouTube by naga, highlights how the vast majority of open-world games like Zelda: Breath of the Wild, The Witcher 3, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Assassin's Creed 3, and Hogwarts Legacy benefit from faster CPU and GPU clock speeds, all managing to run at around 60 FPS and with some graphics mods to boot. Even more linear games greatly benefit from faster CPU and GPU […]
Fans have been waiting for Nintendo to launch a Switch 2 for years now. It was reportedly due out sometime in 2024 before getting delayed to next year. And while the company recently hinted that the Switch successor will be revealed later this year, it...
While a follow-up to the Switch is as inevitable as night following day, its existence was only finally made officially official earlier this week. At the same time, we’ve seen dribs and drabs of leaks about screen sizes, controller changes, and other ...
Nigel Lowrie, the co-founder of indie publisher Devolver Digital (Hotline Miami, Cult of the Lamb), says that indie games do much better on Switch than on other consoles because Nintendo has cultivated a playerbase that is more “open to interesting con...
Nintendo, founded in 1889, is perhaps the longest running gaming company around and, perhaps due to this fact, it has largely remained a boys’ club. This began to change for the better in 2020, when it nominated its first woman to the board of director...
Despite well-documented hardware limitations, the Nintendo Switch can push framerates above 60 frames per second with extreme overclocking. YouTube user Naga, who previously showcased how a modded console with 8GB of RAM can run select games with better performance and higher resolution, shared a new extreme overclocking test video showing how Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom runs at 720p, 900p, 1080p, 1440p and 4K resolution with CPU overclocked at 2499 MHz, GPU at 1497 MHz and RAM 3000 MHz. The results are rather interesting, as the system runs the game at close to 70 frames per second at 720p resolution, […]
Elon Musk continues to run X (formerly Twitter) in a variety of questionable ways, and surely one of the oddest is the decision to charge vast amounts of money for access to the site’s API. As such, major firms are dropping integration with the hellsit...
Animal Well is a fantastic breakout title from both a new developer and publishing studio. Fans of Fez and Tunic will feel right at home jumping into this well.
Folks, it finally happened…sort of. Nintendo formally (and remarkably casually) acknowledged its successor to the Nintendo Switch, stating that it will be announced “within this fiscal year” as part of an investor meeting this week, meaning we’ll hear ...

The soon-to-be-released Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door remake doesn't run at 60 frames per second like the original GameCube release, but it is likely due to the developer's choice to prioritize other things over frame rate and performance. Talking on X/Twitter, Abebe Tinari, director of Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon, provided some interesting insight that likely applies to the upcoming remake. For a long time, the Bayonetta Origins development team tried to get the game running at a stable 60 FPS but only achieved so in certain stages, while in others, it was impossible without reducing visual fidelity. […]
A new wave of rumors are doing the rounds regarding the near-mythical Switch 2. Nintendo’s much-deliberated follow-up to its seven-year-old handheld console was most recently speculated to have an 8" screen, after Sharp Corp reportedly massively upped ...
