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.

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 […]

Seven years later, Nintendo proves Metroid Prime 4 still exists

2025 release could launch on the still-mysterious "Switch 2."

Switch 2 Will Be Unaffected by Chip Shortages, Nintendo Won’t Commit to a FY2025 Release

After endless speculation, Nintendo finally said something concrete about their plans for a Switch successor as part of their most recent earnings report, promising to announce the Switch 2 (or whatever it ends up being called) sometime during this fiscal year, which extends until the end of March, 2025. There are rumors that the Switch 2 will be unveiled this Fall and release in March of 2025, but nothing has been confirmed by Nintendo themselves. That said, during an earnings Q&A Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa did provide a few more tidbits about their Switch successor plans (thanks to GamesIndustry.biz for […]

Report suggests Switch 2 can play all original Switch games

Nintendo Switch 2 Rumored to Launch in H2 2024; OLED Version Already in Production

There's still a chance for the Nintendo Switch 2 to launch this year. Exactly two months ago, the Japanese publication Nikkei wrote that March 2025 was the most likely release window for the new console as it allowed Nintendo to produce enough consoles to sell to consumers. However, Samsung leaker Connor (OreXda) wrote this morning on Twitter/X: The Nintendo Switch 2 is expected to launch as early as the second half of this year. Significant contracts have already been negotiated in the component industry for initial production. Tegra T239 - produced by Samsung Foundry 7LPH Display - Samsung OLED With […]

Nintendo to Skip Gamescom, Raising Questions About their Reveal Schedule Ahead of Switch 2

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 […]

PlayStation’s Ex Head of 3rd Party Joins Nintendo AAA 3rd Party Team as Switch 2 Approaches

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 […]

Nintendo Switch Update 18.0.0 Released and Here’s What it Does Unofficially and Officially

Nintendo Switch update 18.0.0 has been rolled out by Nintendo and here's what this new firmware version does officially and unofficially. Although this new system software update is supposed to be a major one, Nintendo's official release notes are quite minimal. Like almost all Nintendo firmware updates, the notes make mention of improved system stability. In addition, this system update adds a 15-minute option for the auto-sleep function when using the Switch in docked mode. Also, this update adds Korean for the “Nintendo Switch Parental Controls” introductory video. As always with these new system updates, there are also under-the-hood changes […]

Switch 2 Storage Speculation Sparked by Samsung’s Newly-Revealed 800 MB/s microSD Cards

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 […]

Pokémon Legends: Z-A is the Series’ Next Big Entry, Will Still Launch on OG Switch in 2025

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 […]
