In an incredibly brief trailer today, the Pokémon Company has announced that Mega Zeraora will be coming to Pokémon Legends: Z-A’s Mega Dimension DLC. The fourth revealed new mega evolution for this expansion, Zeraora’s potential inclusion was leaked last month ahead of the game’s release. While some of that came…
Last week during the Xbox Game Showcase, Sega and Atlus revealed the rumored Persona 3 remake in the form of Persona 3 Reload, and a few days later the game was confirmed for PlayStation and PC, leaving Switch players without an announcement. That could be changing, though. Up until now…
Guillermo del Toro cares a lot about animation, his first (and if he gets his way, last) love in filmmaking. During a recent filmmaking masterclass at the Annecy International Animation Festival, del Toro went off (and I mean, really went off) on the homogenized nature of commercial animation. But in…
Time to journey in the Sinnoh region! Bundle up tight and take your trusty seed turtle with you – the Kotobukiya ARTFX J scaled figure of Dawn from Pokémon Platinum and her companion Turtwig is coming. The ⅛ scaled figure releases by the end of the year, in December. …

The Super Mario Bros. Movie made as a collab between Illumination and Nintendo made, proverbially speaking all of the money ($1.3 billion, the second highest grossing animated film ever made), so it’s only natural that people are wondering what’s next. Along with a sequel in early production, a recent rumor…

Calculators are deceptively simple devices, built from base blocks of binary sequences in 0s and 1s. They look complicated at the basest levels, but really it’s just about determining whether certain functions are a “yes” or “no.” And user c7fab has built a version of a calculator using The Legend…
