    September 2026 Nintendo Direct recap, new Metroid and Kirby games on the way

    Ports for years-old games at full price, half framerate, and quarter resolution! Yipee! And let's not forget the best on-rails exposition dump game with a lil bit of monster hunting sprinkled in the campaign, Monster Hunter Wilds! Did I mention full price?

    A nice break from the negativity - let's look at some games coming out this week

    I don't perfectly remember Wanderburg from the promo I saw a while back, but I do remember being interested. I'll have to check it out a second time.

    Mario Kart 8 Deluxe gets free Switch 2 update, adds eight-player multiplayer, higher resolution visuals, camera support, and more

    I'd better not let my kids know about this. They're not allowed to touch my switch 2 and I don't need them asking to play on it.

    Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look - now on YouTube

    Framerate falls under the realm of visuals for most. 60 FPS isn't even that much, I've been gaming on 120 or higher for years on mid budget PC builds.

    Xbox to offer digital licences with physical disc purchases

    I haven't kept up with xbox shenanigans since 2011 I didn't know if they require always online to be able to do anything. Plenty of physical PS4 games I had couldn't be played without ripping the game to HDD and also downloading more in patches and missing content. I've also been locked out of...

    Xbox to offer digital licences with physical disc purchases

    It sounds like a fair enough system on paper. The last one to use the physical disc has the license. It seems like it's only as good as the system it's built upon, though. Does the license need to authenticate with servers before you can initially use the disc in the first place? If that's the...

    Sounds like a good reason to fire up my 3DS for the first time in a few years, and I guarantee the battery is still full.

    ASUS announces ROG Xbox Ally X20 pricing and availability

    I don't know if anyone caught the Easter egg, but the "X20" is a nod to the method they chose for marking up the price.

    Bringus showed off the lower firmware exploit for Linux on ps5 running pc games phenomenally. This would be a godsend.

    New ‘Magic: The Gathering’ sets, ‘Stardew Valley’ crossover and 2027 calendar announced

    I honestly want a secret lair after so long, just for the stardew cards because I love ConcernedApe's art. It's too bad it puts money in hasbro's pocket.

    Monster Hunter Wilds to get permanent price drop from August 4th

    It's already only 70% positive overall, 66% recent. I'm in the minority of disliking this game after they changed so much from previous titles. The formula was just fine, I was completely content with having the same exact game with incrementally adding new gimmicks every entry. Now, the combat...

    Steam Controller gets official release date and pricing, set to launch May 4th

    I've been waiting for this for so long, it's everything I've ever wanted from a controller. I sold my extra OG steam controller a couple months ago to pay for this so I'm okay with the price point.
