Way back in the halcyon day of last July, Digital Extremes CEO Steve Sinclair told me the team was "excited" to bring Warframe to Switch 2 and was eager to "really push [the machine] to its limits, see what it can do." The only problem? The studio was still waiting on a dev kit from Nintendo. Some eight months on, though, that Switch 2 release is almost here: Digital Extremes has confirmed it's coming to Nintendo's latest console on 25th March.

Green light. After last week's 3DS 15th anniversary, we knew it was only a matter of time before another big hardware birthday sent us spiralling; we just didn't expect it to come this quickly. Today marks 20 years since the launch of the DS Lite in Japan — a fact that we are totally comfortable and okay with.

As AI-generated artwork becomes more commonplace, it still won't be able to be copyrighted, according to US courts. On Monday, the US Supreme Court declined to hear a case about whether an artwork generated with the help of AI can be copyrighted. The refusal means that a lower court's decision to reject the copyright request will stand. The case dates back to 2018 when Stephen Thaler applied for a copyright of an artwork called A Recent Entrance to Paradise. Unlike using ChatGPT or Midjourney, T...

Today, only 10% of Apple's Private Cloud Compute capacity is said to be in use on average. The usage is low enough that some servers intended for Apple's AI cloud system are still in warehouses and have not ...

In spite of launching a handful of unquestionable winners this generation like Marvel's Spider-Man 2, Helldivers 2, or Ghost of Y&omacrtei, PlayStation Studios has struggled with making the PS5's tenure super exciting. Of course, development cycles going totally off the rails and first-party exclusives (outside of Nintendo) becoming less and less important overall are part of the problem, but a failed live-service push can't be over-looked, either.

Nintendo has scheduled an Indie World Showcase livestream for tomorrow, March 3, at 9AM ET. The company says this event will include "roughly 15 minutes of news and updates on indie games coming to Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch." That's not a whole lot of time, but indie trailers tend to be on the shorter side. We really don't know anything about what Nintendo and its partners could reveal tomorrow. It's entirely possible we'll see something big, like the previously announced Sea of Sorr...

Just how evil is this resident..? Capcom has come out guns blazing with its latest Switch 2 release: a full-fat survival horror experience in the form of Resident Evil Requiem.

Apple’s most affordable iPhone just got an upgrade, but how does the new iPhone 17e compare to the iPhone 16e? Well, thankfully the price remains the same at $599, which is good news in our current economic climate. An immediate difference you might notice is that one of them now comes in a third color: pink. That’s at least one win for me because I am all for putting more color into tech. There are a few differences under the hood as well, namely that the iPhone 17e is arriving with the A19 chi...
