Genius Pokemon players have somehow uncovered an RNG exploit in Scarlet and Violet that allows you to generate infinite rare items – including Master Balls – just by changing the date and time on your Nintendo Switch.

Following Nintendo's decision to sue Yuzu, the popular Switch emulator, and the consequent shutdown of the project (with a massive $2.4 million to be paid in damages), two main forks have appeared: Suyu and Nuzu. While the latter turned out to be vaporware, Suyu is a real project with many dedicated developers behind it.
Just two days ago, the Suyu team published the first public build, introducing several fixes and changes as well as initial work to support the emulator on macOS.
However, it didn't take long for a DMCA to be issued to GitLab, the host of the Suyu repository. A GitLab representative told Overkill that they had received a 'DMCA takedown notice from a representative of the rightsholder', complying immediately with all their requests.
The Suyu team still doesn't know who issued the DMCA, though Nintendo is likely behind it. At any rate, the repository has been moved to a new address. There is a caveat:
Creating repositories is disabled for new users to prevent spam. If you want to contribute, please create a post in git-access-request in our discord server to have your account approved.
For now, it's unclear whether this will be enough to keep the project running or if it's just a matter of time before Suyu shuts down for good. However, the other major Nintendo Switch emulator, Ryujinx, remains presently unaffected by DMCA takedowns.

It's truly the end of an era for Nintendo fans, as online services for 3DS and Wii U have finally shut down. With it, we say goodbye to online multiplayer for the likes of Splatoon, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Pokemon X and Y, and Xenoblade Chronicles X, with everything shutting off for good at 5pm PT/8pm ET yesterday (or 1am GMT this morning for UK folks).
Online multiplayer on all Wii U and 3DS games has come to an end, as Nintendo shuts down the servers for good. This makes it impossible to use online functionality in games such as Pokemon X & Y, Splatoon, Mario Kart 8, and Super Smash Bros for Wii U and 3DS - at least while using conventional means.
Following the demise of the popular Nintendo Switch emulator Yuzu, several other projects based on it began development, and one of them, Sudachi, was recently updated to support the console's home menu.
When Ninja Theory was acquired by Microsoft nearly six years ago, many gamers expected Hellblade II to become Microsoft's own answer to the rebooted God of War franchise. To do that, Ninja Theory would have had to greatly increase the scope of the sequel, but they decided to stick to a short eight-hour-long game instead.
Following the sales of Saber Interactive (to a new company founded by Saber CEO Matthew Karch) and Gearbox Software (to Take-Two), the Embracer Group held an investors call to confirm the end of its dreaded restructuring program.
Two years and a month after Horizon Forbidden West launched on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles, PC gamers can finally step into the vast and gorgeous post-apocalyptic Western USA created by Guerrilla Games.
The Nintendo Switch emulator Suyu, which was released earlier this month as a replacement for the struck-down Yuzu, has been removed from GitLab due to an alleged DMCA takedown. However, it's still not clear who issued this notice.
The first build of the Suyu Nintendo Switch emulator is now available for download, packing multiple improvements over the latest build of the now-defunct Yuzu emulator.
It's a rather sad time to be a Nintendo fan nostalgic for the 3DS and Wii U era of games. In less than three weeks, the online servers for all games on the consoles will be shut down for good, making an enormous number of online modes for fan-favorite games unplayable forever.
The Suyu Nintendo Switch Emulator is about to reach an important milestone, as its build is launching online very soon.
The console wars are a tale as old as time—or at least as old as the point when games consoles from multiple companies came onto the market. Whether Sega claimed to do what Nintendon't or actual customers determined to justify why their console of choice was objectively the best, this war continues to rage on to this day. However, even as far back as the 90s, it wasn't an ideology that Nintendo wanted to promote.
