Halo 2 Record Beaten by Nintendo Gamers After 14 Years

A tease for the upcoming title reveals that a rare Pokémon from the Alola region could be arriving in the revamped Kalos. Aside from the game's reveal trailer, very little has been officially confirmed about. Most expected features have thus come via unconfirmed leaks, including the hints that an exceedingly rare Mythical Pokémon is making a return.

You might not know this if you grew up in the later eras of Nintendo, but the company ran an esports competition called the Nintendo World Championships way back in 1990. The event toured 29 American cities and players from across the country gathered to compete using a custom Nintendo Entertainment System Game Pak. The cartridge used in the event went on to become a prized collectors’ item, but now, players will get a chance to buy a physical item directly inspired by it.

New hands-on experience with an engineering sample for the upcoming Asus ROG Ally X reveals some surprising improvements over the original model, which prominent hardware leakers have further expanded on. 

A prominent game leaker has revealed that Nintendo is developing a new unannounced game. The codename of the title is Banquet, and it is presumed to be a game for the Nintendo Switch 2. Just as important, while the game itself was not teased, the developers tasked with making it have teamed up to work on a key franchise in the past:

The franchise has had numerous titles appear on the Nintendo Switch, many of which are among the best-selling games the console has had in its seven-plus years of life. However, new information has revealed that the Switch's lifecycle has been the best period of the series, as it has eclipsed all past generations by large margins, even ahead of Gen 10 and future games' releases.

A GTA 5 player has found a new side mission in the single-player mode, a discovery that has remained hidden for years. While GTA 5's open world was initially considered Rockstar Games' most immersive experience, it was later surpassed by Red Dead Redemption 2. With the anticipated release of GTA 6, which has a trailer available below, Red Dead Redemption 2 may soon see its position overtaken.

Two significant lawsuits over Nintendo Switch Joy-Con drift have been dismissed in the US courts.

Red Dead Redemption may finally launch on PC 14 years after its original release, judging from some recent findings.

One of Super Mario 64’s few remaining mysteries has been solved, thanks to a player who figured out how to open a previously “unopenable” door from the 1996 Nintendo 64 classic. We can thank a nearly four-hour YouTube video that exhaustively detailed how invisible walls work in Super Mario 64, and the tenacity of the game’s community for the new discovery.

It's been 28 years since was released on Nintendo 64, but players have finally been able to solve one of its last remaining mysteries. A lone cabin door at the bottom of the game's fourth course, (aka. Snow World) was previously thought to be unopenable from the outside, setting it apart from the majority that players come across in the game which open both ways. The door is clearly fully functional, as Mario has always been able to use it from the inside after diving into a chimney at the top of the mountain and going down a slide, but hitboxes prevent players from making their way back through it after leaving the cabin.

Nintendo has confirmed that the Nintendo Switch 2 reveal will take place this fiscal year, but set expectations ahead of June’s Nintendo Direct by stating that this stream will not feature the next generation console.

Nintendo has confirmed it will announce its next-generation console during its current fiscal year, ending March 2025.
