The NES Classic is reportedly ceasing production. But why? Is it the Switch? Is it hackers? Is it possibly not even true?
There are many exciting updates this month for Xbox. Copilot for Gaming is available now for early preview on mobile and will be coming to PC soon. Xbox PC app introduces a wave of new updates: Aggregated gaming library gives players quick access to games from Xbox, Game Pass, and other leading PC storefronts, and with publisher channels players can browse their favorite franchises. Updates for the Xbox Console includes customization for Most Recently Used, free-to-play benefits, Game Hubs, and dialog improvements for game saves.
"Players can now hide system apps, pin favorites to the list, and reduce the number of tiles displayed. This update is part of our ongoing effort to make Home more personal, flexible, and responsive to feedback."
This is welcomed, i like a less cluttered home screen.
The three most beautiful sights in this world are: 1) your spouse on your wedding day 2) the birth of your first child 3) a walkthrough for Ecco the Dolphin in some long forgotten scrawl.
"Nintendo Switch 2 is a safe and solid follow-up in many respects but it has its issues, including the Virtual Game Card system and an aging UI."

Not sure what games you're playing to average 5 to 6 hours battery. Mariokart World and Zelda gets 2 and a half hours max.
Yea don’t think id get 6 hours in sleep mode!
I think there’s a lot of internal software issues with the battery management.
Sleep mode kills the battery almost as quick as playing games does. Playing switch 1 games seems to kill the battery faster than playing switch 2 games for the most part. Even playing a very, very basic switch 1 game seems to drain the battery much faster than I would expect it to.
I don't even get why they hacked it to run more rooms when you can just lay them all on any old junky pc you don't even need a good pc a gts 450 will work perfectly fine and I'm sure you can go even weaker really.
If people are hacking this thing then they are really stupid. It's going to be a rare item to find in a few years. By hacking it, the value of it will shrink considerably. If you want to stick your roms on something, then it's better to stick to one of the many known pieces of technology that is capable of playing them.
I highly doubt its because of hackers anyone can make a nes emulator out of a rasberry pi for cheaper before the mini even exsisted
I don't blame the hackers, I blame the scalpers. Buy a hard to find item for $60, sell it for $300+ = profit. Nintendo swears they didn't believe this would take off like it did (yeah, right), and just means they really don't know their own fanbase. My concern is how are they planning on handling the Switch if the same thing occurs.
60 bucks for classic console works with hdmi well sell like a cupcake, it price of a game and whenever gamers spent 2 months to 4 without a great game to buy they will buy this sooner or later everybody will get it if Nintendo keept it. But yeah its Nintotendo nothing right with their desicions.
