  • Pokemon Pokopia launches March 5, 2026

    Jump

  • £58.99 (UK price) is the same price as Legends Z-A, despite Pokopia seemingly being a smaller side game. Even if the game is good, there is no way it's going to sell well at that price to anyone other than die-hard Pokemon fans. Persona 5 Tactica (which I really like) did the exact same thing (full game price for smaller side game) and it did not end well, copies of Tactica still linger on clearance to this day for sometimes less than 20% of the original price since a lot of the launch excitement evaporated.

  • Sony WF-C510 connected on Linux, but never recognized as a headset

    Jump

  • I have a pair of Sony WH-1000XM6s (similar sort of pairing and Bluetooth system although with the addition of LDAC) and I can confirm the Sound Connect app is not required to pair the headphones (works perfectly on my laptop with a Qualcomm Bluetooth chip and my desktop with an Intel chip, both running Fedora). It's only for settings management and firmware updates through your phone. It might be worth checking if there's any firmware updates for the headphones, and also try a few more resets. I used to have a pair of Bose headphones that had the exact same problem as you are experiencing, but it would go away after disconnecting and reconnecting a few times. It's worth also seeing if you can pair with any other type of device in addition to your phone (Windows, smart TV, anything that can do Bluetooth A2DP) as it might be an issue with pairing to devices in general.

    Out of curiosity how are you triggering pairing mode? If you are triggering pairing mode through the Sound Connect app, it might be worth instead holding the hardware button on the back of the case for 5 seconds to enter pairing mode.

  • Nintendo is releasing a Zelda Breath of the Wild vinyl box set in the West to gauge the demand for physical soundtracks there | VGC

    Jump

  • I really want this to succeed. I've had to import soundtrack CDs from Japan so many times for games I enjoy (Nintendo and non-Nintendo), so to not have to go through the import process would be so nice. I do wish Nintendo would follow the lead of other game companies however and release their soundtracks digitally on stores rather than just on Nintendo Music (which only has a limited selection). If you could just buy the FLACs or M4As off somewhere like iTunes, Qobuz, or 7digital it would save having to ship a soundtrack at all.

  • YouTube Is Working With Nintendo To Make Its App Available On Switch 2

    Jump

  • The Wii had all sorts. At least here in the UK we got YouTube, BBC iPlayer, LoveFilm (later including Amazon Instant Video), Netflix, and Crunchyroll all to download from the Wii Shop Channel. It wasn't the best experience, since the Wii tops out at 480p and most people used composite cables that had a resolution of 480i interlaced, but it was good enough for the time.

  • YouTube Is Working With Nintendo To Make Its App Available On Switch 2

    Jump

  • I was very surprised to see YouTube was not working on launch day. Considering how popular it is, I thought Nintendo and Google would have had it ready to go. Hopefully they sort it out soon.

  • Emblem: Fortune’s Weave – Nintendo Direct 9.12.2025

    Jump

  • I am so ready (when I find time to play it, damn the 3DS games are so tempting after I finally fully complete 3H)

  • Chibi-Robo! - GameCube – Nintendo Classics

    Jump

  • I'm glad Chibi Robo is finally getting a chance to shine on a more popular console. After the original game, the franchise was run into the ground so hard, so to even have this playable on a modern Nintendo system is quite exciting. Maybe if it's popular enough on NSO we might get a full revival? Unlikely, but you never know.

  • Nintendo-owned titles excluded from Japan’s biggest speedrunning event after organizers were told they had to apply for permission for each game

    Jump

  • I don't know why Nintendo feel the need to get so overly protective over displays of their games (streaming, competitions, so on). There's been so many games I have bought because I saw someone play it on a stream or something and thought it was neat. What are they even losing out on? They are just shooting themselves in the foot here.

  • Nintendo raises the Switch 1 price from $299 to $339 / The Switch OLED price jumped by $50 on Sunday, to $399.99.

    Jump

  • This does make me wonder how much Nintendo are subsidising US bound Switch 2s, considering the price on that hasn't increased since launch (yet). Maybe they think it's worth it to take a hit on it and try and make it up with higher priced software?

  • The HORI Piranha Plant camera for Switch 2 drops to $40

    Jump

  • The interest in it probably evaporated the second that people found out it was 480p. If it was 1080p like the Nintendo one people would definitely buy it more.

  • Nintendo bans Switch 2 owner after they played used Switch 1 games — decision eventually reversed after proving ‘innocence’

    Jump

  • Wasn't Gaben's point in that statement that although piracy inevitably happens to some degree, the best way to mostly prevent it is to make a good service? That's why Steam was such a success, as it made digitally licensed games easily accessible to PC gamers who were previously being screwed over by other platforms.

  • Realizing Arch isn't for me after updating broke VLC

    Jump

  • It is a KDE thing, but Fedora is the distro on which it works best. On a lot of other distros it often runs into problems.

  • Nintendo Is Seeking Player Feedback On Game-Key Cards In Japan | Nintendo Life

    Jump

  • I think Nintendo would be able to manage getting a good price per gig on 32GB and 16GB cartridges. They have massive demand (a vast amount of Switch 2 games are under 16GB) as well as close historical relationships with flash manufacturers. In addition, I wouldn't be surprised if those sizes were still mass produced at low prices for embedded or industrial computing use, even as consumers move to larger storage media making consumer SD cards at those sizes more expensive per gig.

  • Realizing Arch isn't for me after updating broke VLC

    Jump

  • I've tried quite a few distros (openSUSE, Ubuntu, Solus, Arch, so on) and none seem to offer this feature. It's a shame, as it's quite useful to have since updating a live system can sometimes cause some trouble. Even just the updating from Discover can be broken on some systems (I know openSUSE at the very least acts a bit funny when it comes to PackageKit, I think Arch as well).

  • Realizing Arch isn't for me after updating broke VLC

    Jump

  • Can definitely recommend Fedora too. Software updates are at a good pace, and the system has a lot of polish all around. For example, all you need to do for updates is to press "update" in Discover and it'll do everything for you, applying on reboot for stability. Most things "just work".

  • Nintendo Is Seeking Player Feedback On Game-Key Cards In Japan | Nintendo Life

    Jump

  • Nintendo needs to get to work making smaller cartridges for Switch 2, 64GB carts only is too expensive for a lot of publishers. I do think key cards have a purpose for 64GB+ big games that would be very expensive physically without the key card system, but smaller games should have the whole game on the cartridge. At the very least Nintendo needs to ban code in a box and make those publishers move over to key cards.

  • Nintendo Rolls Out New eShop Publishing Guidelines for Switch 2 in Asia, Seemingly to Curb Spam Games

    Jump

  • Hopefully they can manage to stem the flow on the eShop. The shovelware problem is worse than it was on the Wii. However, I have noticed recently on my Switch 2 (also maybe on Switch 1 eShop as well now?) that a lot of those sorts of games aren't flooding the front page all the time, which is a good sign. They probably changed some of the algorithms, as I think they were tuned to show newest releases first.

  • Anyone else still getting StreetPasses on their 3DS nowadays?

    Jump

  • In my experience, even when new my 3DS XL died way faster in sleep mode compared to the Switch. I've had a Switch in a bag for nearly two days on sleep with some light gameplay and still have at least 50% of its battery. Meanwhile, the 3DS XL battery went down quick enough one of my first purchases was one of those USB charger cables so I could charge it anywhere. It lasts under a day on sleep with some light gameplay.

  • What sort of AAs were you using? I used to get around at least a month or two on a set of fully charged standard Eneloop AAs. Then again, I didn't use my Xbox too intensely, maybe you had a different experience. It would make sense for the Elite to have longer battery life simply because of better battery chemistry (lithium ion on the integrated pack compared to AAs with nickel metal hydride).
