    Nintendo announces price increases across the board, set to come into effect from September in western regions

    But realistically, they overcharged from the get-go, so holding out the longest on a further increase when you overpriced your console to start with doesn't seem that impressive.

    Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed again, to November 2026

    They’re probably delaying it to strip out or at least tone down some of the woke stuff. With such a long dev cycle, studios make assumptions about where the culture and politics will be by release, and sometimes those assumptions age badly. If they don’t adjust, the game risks feeling out of...

    Nintendo updates their EULA preventing users from suing them and allows them to brick the console if used illegaly

    Probably only in Quebec, while most of the country hates them and there arrogant French culture, they do have better consumer protections.

    Nintendo decides to not raise cost of the Switch 2 console in USA, pre-orders begin April 24

    I hate their acting like they didn't bake a high price in already, the proof is on there on the switch 2 site Multi language switch ¥69,980 (680.36CAD/491.54USD) versus ¥49,980 (485.92CAD/351.07USD) for the Japan only switch

    GBAtemp's games of the year for 2023

    Hogwarts legacy got snubbed by yet another game of the year round up, Not saying Spider-Man 2 is bad overall, but I’m surprised an iterative sequel made the list and it didn’t.

    The Game Awards 2022 - Bayonetta spinoff, Mario movie trailer, FFXVI release date, and more

    maybe considering repackers like fitgirl do precompiled "PC Versions" of switch games or the popularity of the steam deck for example (even one of the steam deck promo videos featured yuzu (till they pulled and re-upped the video to remove it when Nintendo got involved.) switch emulators are...

    FTC files lawsuit against Microsoft to stop the Activision acquisition

    I for one want this merger to happen. current M$ is good for the gamer/customer with game pass compared to Sony's subscription tiers, censorship worse than Nintendo (this generation etc.) could that change in the future? sure, it always tends to ebb and flow its been a cyclical cycle since...

    Editorial Your most disappointing video game sequel

    fallout 4, they built up so much good will with fallout 3 and it's several full DLCs that I pre-ordered the expansion pass and even though I got it before they had the audacity to increase its price post launch I still feel gypped by the fact it was only 2 short and mediocre DLCs and a stupid...

    PS3 emulator RPCS3 now available on Mac

    same situation different conclusion. I use both but I prefer Macs not only do you get Mac Apps, unix apps, most linux apps and a large portion of exe's either via Wine or emulation/dual booting. (Intel) not to mention anytime the price to performance was out of whack for what I needed...

    Diablo II: Resurrected free trial now available on Xbox One and Series X|S

    minor things overall but its the principle. uglified the female characters (Willem Dafoe Amazon is probably the worst example) covered up any of there risque clothing, sideboob on the sorceress, any full topless characters etc. got rid off the dead harem girls and changed the explanations for...

    Diablo II: Resurrected free trial now available on Xbox One and Series X|S

    I wont play this, its not even worth pirating or for a free trial. not even because of any issues that may or may not exist with blizzard/activision but because of the censorship in the game. its suppose to be a remaster (so a one to one copy other than improved graphics/quality of life...

    The situation in Ukraine...

    its not about who SHOULD anything, but if Sweden wanted to reclaim its historical land and retake Finland thats a Swedish issue and yes, would be a regional conflict for those two states to sort out. it means if Mexico wanted to reclaim what it saw as its historical territory and wanted to...
