I don’t know if I’ve shared much of Max Derrat’s work here, but this is fascinating if you’re interested in Eastern #philosophy as it relates to #VideoGames. In today’s episode, he discusses #FromSoftware’s #Sekiro. The connections are amazing. #StayYellow www.youtube.com/watch
LOLZ. First watch this #Nintendo #SNES commercial from 1991 starring Paul Rudd, then watch the new one for the #Switch2 where he reprises his role and actually speaks! #videogames #youtube

So, it seems that #Netease, the makers of the wildly popular #MarvelRivals live service team shooter might be prepping for a #Nintendo #Switch2 port and is testing an experimental Switch Shader Compilation Mode. It depends on how you read it, I suppose. #videogames
While it remains unknown what technology #Nintendo has developed for the new #Switch2 #JoyCons, it is crystal clear that they have done everything in their power to prevent another stick drift debacle. And yet Mario’s Dad won’t confirm what, so we’ll have to wait. #videogames www.theverge.com/news/6444…
As heartbreaking as it seems, #Nintendo’s pricing for the #Switch2 and its games is not an increase over previous years. For more details on the why and how of that, check out Nintendo Forecasts’ video on the matter. #videogames #inflation #economics www.youtube.com/watch
#TFG’s #tariffs have prompted #Nintendo to pause pre-orders for the #Switch2 in the #US which were going to start on April 9th so Nintendo can evaluate the rapidly changing economic landscape. Fans are already unhappy about Switch 2 pricing. #videogames #news kotaku.com/switch-2-…

#Nintendo #Switch2 pricing for the US:
Switch 2: $449 Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: $499
The systems will be available starting June 5th. Accessory prices (i.e., Pro Controller, Switch 2 Camera, etc) not yet available. #videogames #MarioKart #NorthAmerica
If you’re a #tech #dweeb like me, you’ll love this new video from the totally legitimate #TechDweeb with an important announcement! #AprilFools #videogames #RetroGameCorps. www.youtube.com/watch
One of the biggest surprises from yesterday’s #NintendoDirect was the upcoming new featured called #VirtualGameCard. For an explanation, read the brief article. I will note that this is way late but also right on time for the #Switch2 direct next week. #videogames arstechnica.com/gaming/20…
Good news, everyone! #VideoGames workers now have a #union covering the #US and #Canada called United Videogame Workers, an off-shoot of the Communications Workers of America union. And it’s a Direct-Join union. Support it. #tech #FightCapitalism www.engadget.com/big-tech/…
