Kanto bright. On 27th February, Pokémon turns 30. That’s three whole decades of exploring many and various regions to find monsters, battle monsters, and pocket monsters – and we’ve all got our personal favourites. And they’re not always just our starter, either! Sure, you build up a special relationship with your first Pokémon each generation,…
Nice to C you. Turtle Beach’s original Rematch Wireless is what I’d call a decent and dependable budget pad, and around what you’d expect for your money. It looked and felt surprisingly premium in its buttons, its responsive D-Pad, and in its many different designs. Now, Turtle Beach is back with the cunningly-named ‘Turtle Beach…

Rovio’s performance “fell significantly short of initial forecast”. SEGA Sammy has published its Q3 2025/26 financial report, and it’s a pretty mixed bag for the multimedia giant, with losses reported in multiple different areas. But perhaps the biggest piece of news comes from Rovio’s side of the business. Sega acquired the Angry Bird developer in…

Well, those wizards are back with the fresh Console Archives brand, and the now 30-year-old ‘radical’ PlayStation sports game Cool Boarders is one of…
Non-canon fodder. News that Konami is following up the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 with a Master Collection Vol. 2 was very welcome, but hardly the most surprising reveal of the year.
