    Gaming Ninja Gaiden Black first OG XBOX backward compatible game?

    I was just browsing Game Pass and I noticed that Ninja Gaiden Black is available to install, I guess this is the first OG XBOX game available to play on XB1, funny they didn't make more of this, no home screen announcement or anything.

    C64 Mini Announced

    They say it's fully licensed, but I can't help noticing it doesn't have "Commodore" or the Commodore "C" logo anywhere on it...

    Hardware Xbox One X announced

    I feel like the first run of japanese Dreamcasts had a phase-change cooling system, so probably some "console crowd (I assume this is some bullshit PC-nerd elitist snobbery)" do know about it, 'cause I did. There's heat pipes in some of the phat 360s too, leading from main GPU heatsink to a...

    Homebrew UPDATE: Regarding the recent 3DS banwave

    So i haven't turned my 3DS on in a month, but last time I did I updated to 11.3 so i could play 100 Marios on Mario Maker. The game is downloaded from "that site" and installed using FBI, so I'm guessing whatever I do now i have a ban coming, no way around it?

    i can't find any details on the internals, but there is this from the Nintendo Wiki:

    Nintendo of America discontinues the NES Classic

    Well, the Ball Game & Watch had the same form factor and function as the original, and was not an emulator due to the largely mechanical nature of 1980s LCD handhelds - it would be cheaper to manufacture a hardware clone when you only have one display option. The internals may be different, but...

    Nintendo of America discontinues the NES Classic

    Set for what, exactly? it's a Japanese cultural thing I think. It doesn't really make sense, but I know of other examples. One (non-VG related) that springs to mind is the Shimano DX BMX pedal from the 1980s, this simple cast aluminum pedal sold for about $30 when it was readily available...

    Turning Wi-Fi off fixes lagging in Zelda BoTW and other Switch games

    Lol, I have every console since SNES (except PS3, Wii U and PS4 but including Vita), and 3 TVs dedicated to gaming, and I paid for them all with money I earned. I'm 45 years old, your assumptions underline your bias. No interesting XBOX games? Well I guess Halo is kinda dull, and almost nobody...

    Turning Wi-Fi off fixes lagging in Zelda BoTW and other Switch games

    It's really more embarrassing for Nintendo in that light isn't it? 4 year old, $100 (CAD) cheaper console provides superior gaming experience to Switch... And waits for the "but it's portable" gambit...

    Turning Wi-Fi off fixes lagging in Zelda BoTW and other Switch games

    This would be more amusing if current pricing in Canada wasn't Switch - $400, XBOX One - $300

    Turning Wi-Fi off fixes lagging in Zelda BoTW and other Switch games

    Well it's true, to be fair, I've only owned my XB1 and GTA V for about a year, so I don't know how it played at launch. I'm just concerned that Nintendo, who really needed a sure-fire hit with Switch/BOTW are going to suffer because of poor word-of-mouth reviews and the negative impact of bugs...

    Turning Wi-Fi off fixes lagging in Zelda BoTW and other Switch games

    Haven't seen Bloodborne, but I know GTA V XBOX One version (which is an old game) runs like like butter with huge draw distances, you can snipe at moving vehicles from the top of a mountain. I've played Stunt Series races with 20 other people and no lagging even over my crappy 6Mb/s connection...

    Hardware To all the people bitching about the Switch problems.

    Hmmm, I guess if ad hominem is all ya got, it's all ya got.

    Hardware To all the people bitching about the Switch problems.

    Yes, I just bought a truck, to haul stuff and to get me from A to B. It cost me $1500 safetied. I didn't build a truck because I have no interest in doing so. You see, you did it again, you assumed your world view is right, and anyone else is "just bitching". How's the gas mileage on that K30...
