Gamers who missed out on a chance to get a Nintendo Switch 2 on launch day, or in the rare opportunities since, can buy one through Best Buy’s website or mobile app right now following a short queue.

Capcom had an interesting showing at Summer Game Fest with three titles that will carry the developer into 2026 and beyond: Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Resident Evil Requiem, and Pragmata. I got hands-on previews with both Requiem and Pragmata, and a hands-off presentation for Onimusha. Across the three games, I saw a mix of […]

The new $84.99 Pro Controller for the Switch 2 may not be your idea of a pro-grade controller – perhaps not by a long shot. But it’s certainly more of one than Nintendo’s $69.99 last-gen controller. It has two extra buttons embedded into its grips (one on each side), which can be programmed on a […]
All sequels have to live up to their predecessors in some form, but few have as daunting a task as Mario Kart World. It’s a follow-up to the best-selling game across Nintendo’s last two console generations, and a game that eventually doubled in size thanks to an ambitious array of downloadable add-ons.
