I am actually really excited for Zach Cregger’s upcoming Resident Evil film, I think this may be the best chance there is for getting an actually good adaptation, mostly thanks to the fact that Cregger seems like a super fan who actually understands what makes the games so charming. In other words: he knows ball….
On Monday, Chinese memory manufacturer CXMT made its initial public offering on Shanghai’s STAR stock market. This debut was the biggest in Asia this year, raising $8.6 billion and seeing shares in the company surge by 466%. In terms of valuation, that places CXMT right at the top of China’s stock market.

Qualcomm, the company behind the Snapdragon chips you will find in many phones, Windows on Arm laptops, and VR headsets, is reportedly raising its prices starting September 1.

New king of the high seas. We are back with our latest look at the UK physical gaming charts, and Splatoon Raiders has come out of the gate strong. Nintendo’s latest spinoff has nabbed the top spot in its first week, kicking the previous champ, Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced down into second — not…
Uh oh. Breath of the Wild launched alongside the Switch 1 back in 2017. That was how many years ago? Three? Four? Surely no more than five? As it turns out, it was quite a bit longer than that, as the live-action Zelda movie star, Benjamin Evan Ainsworth, has so kindly reminded us. Ainsworth recently…
Unofficially, of course! One of the stranger (yet not entirely unwelcome) trends of recent years has been the gradual increase in native ports of N64 titles to the Sega Dreamcast, offering people a brand new way to experience Nintendo’s classics on Sega hardware.
