Checking out CES 2026 news and came across this.


Looks pretty cool - for games that don't force landscape orientation (*grumbles*). Now, as long as the price isn't outside the range of say a Gamebaby...

Yes, I picked up Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition for Switch. He had me at "Portable Fallout 4" The port seems pretty decent. 60fps mode in portable mode seems a little bit "soft" graphically, but there's a 40 fps mode that seems just about the best compromise between feel and appearance in portable mode.

Who's a "Good Boy"? Dogmeat!

I want to be the very best, like no one ever was. To catch them is my real test, to train them is my cause. I will travel across the land, searching far and wide. Teach Pokemon to understand the power that's inside.

It's Pokemon Day! Ports of FireRed and LeafGreen remakes of Red/Blue are out. There will be Pokemon Home support, but you won't be able to transfer back to FireRed and LeafGreen. Transfers never counted as trades anyway, which is why I stopped playing Let's Go Evee/Pikachu. You couldn't evolve a Kadabra through it. But since I have a Switch 2 and still have my old switch, I do believe I can trade that way, will have to manually switch virtual cards and transfer the save.

Nvidia released the DLSS 5 announcement trailer to the public. It has been met with mixed reactions: while some people do find it impressive, many gamers dislike it for its Instagram beauty filter look aesthetics which in their eyes destroys art style and immersion in many games.


Since trailer release the internet has been flooded with tons of DLSS5 memes like below.

The demo was rendered on 2 GPUs in parallel, so some gamers also doubt Nvidia's promise that it will run on a single GPU quick enough.,

The sequel will probably be better.

I was playing Pokemon Yellow on my 3DS recently and about halfway through but then the memory card crashed and died on me while I was jailbreaking the 3DS. The only thing that seems to have been lost is my Yellow save. But in theory, I can export/import the new save and gice myself Pokemon in the procesa, but its not really the same.

Also, I didn't make this but it seems relevant.

My newest consoles are a PS3 and an Xbox 360, I bought both after that generation was long dead and I don't really play either.

Blah blah, great Satan of Redmond..blah blah Starfield on PS5...as it should have been from the start. Never do this again, Microsoft. Leave the console market to Sony and Nintendo and focus on fixing your crap operating system.

This is so silly in Fortnite. Having Laufey is probably sillier than Sabrina Carpenter.

Her little music event was pretty cool though. I like most of the music event stages though.

Sillier than Kim Kardashian? Chappell Roan? Lisa (from BlackPink (edit it is Lisa and not Jennie))? Mariah Carey? Ariana Grande? Hatsune Miku?

Mariah Carey is up there. I could see Chappell Roan and Ariana Grande being "secretly bad bitch violent". Hatsuni Miku seems a lot like Barbie in that she has 1000 professions, so "Battle Royale Contestant" isn't thst off.

Not sure on Jennie but I think its a Chappell Roan/Ari situation.

Total side note, Ariana Grande was one of the first skins I actually bought. Heck, it may have been the first.

The dance emote is really funny as Godzilla but every emote is funny as Godzilla. (They were basically in the same season)

Ubisoft has redone Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag; and from the look of it they have learned at least something from their long slide into critical failure. The redone Black Flag is still a single-player action game with (confirmed) no DLC or (so it seems, though not verified) any microtransaction garbage.
