Prepare for a pretty obvious answer. Last week, we got our first look at some actual, real Pokémon Legends: Z-A footage. People have seemed pretty split between “we’re so back!” and “it’s so over!” in the days since, but we can all agree that it all looked very ‘Switch 1’, right? Apparently, not everyone thought…
After Burner! Daytona! Guardian Heroes! The recently-released XenonRecomp tool has already given us a PC port of Sonic Unleashed, but it could be put to (arguably much better) use by reviving many delisted Xbox 360 titles. XenonRecomp converts Xbox 360 executables into C++ code, which can then be recompiled for any platform. “Currently, it only…
It’s pretty ugly, though. Late last year, a patent emerged that suggested Samsung was looking to create its own foldable handheld console. Now, the company has showcased what such a device might actually look like at MWC25 in Barcelona. With the Nintendo Switch 2 launching later this year, you might be wondering if the console…
The US Department of Justice announced yesterday that it’s charging 12 alleged Chinese hackers over a string of cyber-attacks supposedly undertaken on behalf of China’s Public and State Security Ministries (the MPS and MSS, respectively). “Victims include US-based critics and dissidents of the PRC, a large religious organization in the United States, the foreign ministries…
Nintendo has won a lengthy legal battle in the French Supreme Court against the company Dstorage, which owns and operates the file-sharing website 1fichier.com, in a judgement which the Japanese giant trumpets as a victory “for the entire games industry.” The verdict follows years of hearings and appeals, and means that any file-sharing company based…
Gentlemen, please… As long as Pokémon TCG exists, there will always be scalpers looking to make a quick buck from the game’s rare cards and packs. Case in point, a new video has surfaced in which two men appear to be fighting it out to take advantage of a kiosk restock. The video comes from…
The discovery was shared on LinkedIn. Members of Square Enix recently made a remarkable discovery upon opening an old storage container at work that had been shut for close to 20 years: a cache of pristine, retro games that includes titles released for the Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, Atari ST, DOS computers, N-Gage, Nintendo Wii,…
I’m a big fan of both weird cool tech and environmental conservation. These might sound like opposing ideas, but we deeply need more of both, especially if they’re working together. In one of my favourite examples this week, a UK startup is working to make plastic eating enzymes to help deal with fast fashion. TechCrunch…
This week we saw the United States government implement hikes to tech tariffs that are already having flow on effects to the greater industry, including some big players from Japan. The tariffs are set to target products built in lower cost countries like China and Mexico that are then sold in the United States. According…
Wearables have been trying to thread a particularly tricky needle as of late. Though funky chunky hardware will always have its appeal, you ideally want kit that sits on your body to be both reasonably powerful and lightweight. Some smart glasses bulk up their frames in order to stash impressive lenses alongside computational power, while…
