“According to an internal GameStop memo”. If you’ve got your eyes on the Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle, you might want to get it sooner rather than later, as it’s not going to be around forever. Following a reminder from Nintendo earlier this month that it’s still only available in “limited quantities”, a GameStop…
“Season ruined,” Obsidian studio design director Josh Sawyer (Pentiment, Fallout: New Vegas) declared on BlueSky alongside a clip from Stranger Things’ recently released fifth season.
