People often say that Nintendo’s products fly off the shelves faster than they can be stocked, but I didn’t think that was a literal statement. A post on the Marin County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page stated that they had arrested 45-year-old Jamal Reed-Obafumi of Oakland, California on June 17th, 2025,…
For the fortunate few that have had the chance to travel to Japan and experience the Nintendo Museum in person, there’s about to be an entirely new way to take in the sights and sounds of Nintendo’s history. As announced on the official Nintendo Museum Twitter account this morning, an…
Raid Hour (also referred to as Legendary Raid Hour) started as an experiment in March 2019. Initially called Legendary Lunch Hour, Niantic set aside an hour on Wednesdays for Pokémon GO Trainers to find 5-Star (Legendary) Raids easier by increasing the appearance rates.

The folks over at Digital Foundry have taken a look at what many consider an impossible port for the Nintendo Switch 2, Cyberpunk 2077. Announced as one of the premiere third-party launch titles for the system (and one of the only third-party games with the full game on a cartridge),…
Since the Nintendo Switch 2 is the hot new thing in gaming right now, it only makes sense that other companies would be worried about the device eating into their sales. As one of Nintendo’s two main rivals for the past 30 years, Sony has gone head-to-head with Nintendo’s consoles…

With the Nintendo Switch 2 becoming the fastest-selling console of all-time in just one weekend, it should be no surprise that its marquee game, Mario Kart World, has also been lighting up the sales charts. While we don’t have concrete global numbers, Famitsu recently published the Japanese sales charts for…
Despite having just launched the Switch 2, Nintendo news is pretty dry at the moment. With the summer almost upon us, it seems Nintendo is letting its already massive library of Switch 1 titles do the heavy lifting while it prepares more next-generation experiences.

In an interview posted by WCCFTech on Wild Hearts S, Koei Tecmo producer Takuto Edagawa stated that he believes the Nintendo Switch 2 is closer in power to the Xbox Series S than the PlayStation 4. While he didn’t elaborate on how or why he thinks that, having just developed…
Going into the release of Mario Kart World, a change that caught the attention of many was the absence of some modes from previous games. With only 50cc, 100cc, and 150cc available to start, it seemed as if Mirror and 200cc were just absent. That proved to not be entirely…
Nintendo Switch 2 has been criticized for a fair amount of things since its full reveal in early April, but that hasn’t stopped it from becoming the fastest-selling Nintendo console in the United Kingdom.

Nintendo has confirmed that over its debut weekend, the Switch 2 moved 3.5 million units globally. That not only makes it the fastest-selling Nintendo hardware of all time, but the fastest-selling video game console ever.

Splatoon Raiders was not the only thing Nintendo had up its sleeve this morning. Alongside the new spinoff game, Splatoon 3 will soon be getting a rather major update in the form of patch Version 10.0.0. While there is a metric ton of new stuff coming to the game, the…
