In a move announced earlier this year, the network will support AC and DC charging for the formerly proprietary, soon-to-be-ubiquitous Tesla plug.

Trunkman. We are mere hours away from the release of Super Mario Bros. Wonder on 20th October (that's tomorrow!) and it is fair to say that Nintendo has been stepping up the marketing into 'home-straight' territory.
