Actually, Nintendo has a MASSIVE upper hand now. Sony's not only Nintendo-level greedy, they're worse in general because the Switch 2 is more versatile, Sony boxed in their users with how they gotta manage their bought game liscences AND Nintendo wins in the exclusive department.

[Gilgamesh @Gilgamesh8443]

@techdroider The funniest thing is that this emulator probably wouldn't have gotten so popular and have gotten the recent support it did if Sony hadn't made the recent decision to become supervillains. They've turned into Nintendo and now they're being treated like Nintendo.

[LivedWater @livedwater]

Wow! In all honesty you'd need a REALLY beefy PC to run this. Unless they devs managed to cut down on a lot spaghetti code or something. Still though, Sony is NOT enjoying this right now lol

[TechDroider @techdroider]

Sony is in FULL PANIC MODE right now

A Discord user named RSantila has reportedly managed to boot Astro Bot on PC using SharpEmu, a PS5 emulator for Windows PC.

Astro Bot is a 2024 PS5 exclusive, so seeing it even boot on a PC is a HUGE!!! PS5 emulation development is moving CRAZY fast.

@faelpontopt Why in the world are there 14-18 years in between some cycles lol

It's so weird how the Rizzler is just like an "& Knuckles" character that companies toss around to each other to exploit. I genuinely feel so bad for the kid, he started trending at 7 years old! He needs friends and a genuine childhood, not this

@StevenJackyDs I'm not gonna lie this is probably a really elaborate bait acc and we're all falling for it

@IceSolst This is why people should get 65% or 75% keyboards instead imo

@mariokarttourEN posting this like you didn’t just post the game is shutting down and theres no offline version

[LivedWater @livedwater]

Now Nintendo fumbled the ball too. SERIOUSLY??? No refunds? Not an offline version? Apalling

[Mario Kart Tour @mariokarttourEN]

Service for the Mario Kart Tour game ends on Sept. 29 at 11:00 p.m. PT / Sept. 30 at 8:00 a.m. CEST. Thank you for your support throughout the years. For info on how rubies and the Mario Kart Tour Gold Pass will be handled moving forward, see in-game notifications or FAQ below.

[Abdallah @AbdallahNATION]

No refunds or partial refunds to people who spent money on it over the years.

No offline version, unlike Animal Crossing Pocket Camp.

Classic mobile game rug-pull, especially in the wake of PlayStation’s drama.

Yiiiiiiikes. 😬

@xdadevelopers Me when I lie

[Framework @FrameworkPuter]

@xdadevelopers Err, what? We’re currently sold out of all of our production capacity of Framework Laptop 13 Pro through October.

Nintendo announced that in mid-February 2027, they will no longer sell Switch, Switch Lite and Switch OLED in Europe.

It probably doesn't make sense for Nintendo to make revisions with removable batteries, so they are just discontinuing the entire hardware line.

[Wario64 @Wario64]

Nintendo Europe: "Starting summer 2026, in preparation for upcoming changes in European battery regulations coming into effect in mid-February 2027, selected Nintendo products in Europe will begin to be replaced on a rolling basis by revisions that contain a user-replaceable battery. There is no difference in functionality between current products and revised products containing user-replaceable batteries."

So Samsung is one of the main drivers of the AI boom but doesn't wanna deal with the downsides of it? Lol

[sid @immasiddx]

This guy bought Samsung’s 990 Pro 4 TB SSD when it was ~$330 and now Samsung REFUSES to replace it as the SSD now costs ~$950 due to the AI boom.

The SSD came with a 5-year warranty but started malfunctioning after just one year.

He sent Samsung evidence showing the drive was malfunctioning. Samsung rejected his claim, said it was working fine, and mailed it back to him.

When asked for a replacement, Samsung said the SSD was “out of stock” and couldn’t be replaced, offering only a refund of the original ~$330 purchase price.

The problem? The same SSD is currently IN STOCK and selling for around $950, so the refund wouldn’t even buy a replacement.

He’s now taking legal action against Samsung.

At this point, replacing the SSD would’ve probably been cheaper for Samsung than fighting the lawsuit. 😭

PS actually did good before this. Sure they slipped up here and there, but the features that PS5 offers and the nice blockbuster gaming selection is good. It'd be great if PS could just go back to making fully physical games for their less-demanding stuff. Hoping that PS wakes up

[Deez Games 🎮 NO DISC 💿 NO BUY @_Deez_Games]

"80% of PlayStation games sold are digital, nobody cares about physical"

Oh really?
Ghost of Tsushima, 40% physical
The Last of Us Part 2, 40% physical
Uncharted 4, 80% physical
Death Stranding, 60% physical

Anyone saying 80% is lying. That figure includes DLC to inflate figures.

What's really interesting is only 36% of a unit sales is digital, but 59% of the net sales in dollars is digital. That means each digital copy brings in 2.6 times the revenue of a physical copy. In other words, if Sony decides to make their next game digital only and ends up selling half as many copies, they'd still make more money. They have fiddled the numbers because overall, when we factor in downloads, microtransactions, DLC, subscription, PC, mobile, yes digital is king but if you look at "bigger" game titles it's just a lie.

You're welcome!
