You may recall that, a week ago, Nintendo had announced that F-ZERO Climax and F-Zero GP Legend would be arriving on Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack on October 11th. As usual, the date was actually referring to Japan’s time zone, so October 11th in Japan would be late on October 10th or in the
The Phantom Menace is the one Star Wars movie that probably received the most tie-in games back in the day, and it appears that Lucasfilm Games is making sure we remember all of them. After a straightforward re-release of Episode I: The Phantom Menace earlier this year, it’s been announced that Aspyr is remastering Jedi

For you, how was the experience of working on the second entry different from the first? Ayabe-san’s presence was a major difference. This time, his schedule didn’t allow for much involvement, so I took the lead. One thing I was very conscious of was not to create a copy of an Ayabe work. I wanted
It turns out that a report that Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund were looking to increase their stake in Nintendo were incorrect as it has emerged today that instead of an increase they have decreased their stake in Nintendo. The Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund has reduced its stakehold in the Kyoto-based company from 8.58%
Over the weekend, Chinese Tekken 8 player xiaochenchen (XCC) made a scorching run through the bracket at Thaiger Uppercut. To call this an unexpected result is an understatement. People know that there’s a fighting game space bubbling away in China, but fairly or unfairly, it’s not held in the same regard as other countries. XCC
Apple revealed a new generation of its custom Arm-based silicon earlier this year, but it took the unusual step of releasing the M4 first in a new iPad Pro model.

It has been over 7 years now since Fortnite released, and 6 years since it had been officially ported over to the Nintendo Switch. Since then, it has quickly become one of the very few live-service games to see massive success. It has been so successful that even live in-game events can result in many
If you’ve been on the Silent Hill 2 Remake Wikipedia page recently and noticed the review scores seem a bit low, that’s because someone’s been tampering with them.
Against all odds, the Silent Hill 2 Remake has been reviewing quite well. There are plenty who feel surprised by that fact, some reviewers included,

Strange Scaffold‘s recent streak (over two years) of wildly different indie releases has been pretty wild: From El Paso, Elsewhere to Life Eater to Clickolding, the indie studio has represented tight and laser-focused gaming at its best and most experimental.

October isn’t a prime month for sales, but we were surprised to see some additional price drops on well-reviewed prebuilt gaming PCs at the start of the month. Retailers and manufacturers are gearing up for Amazon’s big sales event, and even though chip costs are spiking there’s still inventory to be moved. We picked out
Image: Nintendo Life We’ve been playing The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom pretty consistently over the past week and it’s safe to say we’re really rather fond of it.

Meta’s collaboration with Ray-Ban has been on the market for just under a year now, and to mark the occasion, Meta has confirmed what we probably should have assumed in the first place: It’s grabbing snapshots from users’ real lives to train the glasses’ AI model. A representative for the company said Wednesday that when
Image: Nintendo Life / WorldSkills UK Well here’s a little sweetness to brighten up your Thursday, Mario has just nabbed the silver medal at the Olympics. Okay, not quite.

Warning: Spoilers for the main quest of Starfield’s Shattered Space DLC lie ahead. STOP. Can you NOT touch things in here and maybe just THINK about p**sing off?
