Nintendo has said it will finally announce its Switch successor console “within this fiscal year”, so at some point before March 31, 2025. New Nintendo Direct confirmed.

"No one has come close to exhausting its full capabilities"

Key partners have development kits ahead of a planned launch…

Happy 40th anniversary to the legendary video gaming titan, Famicom!

The magnificent seven?

After six hugely successful years, and following the release of celebrated Game of the Year contender Tears of the Kingdom, Nintendo's much-loved and record-breaking hybrid is now ebbing ever closer to culminating its well-performed role as the company's primary hardware.

The r/NewYuzuPiracy subreddit was home to hundreds of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom modding discussions before it was banned on Tuesday.

Last August, Jane, a 14-year-old from Norfolk, Virginia, went missing for two weeks. Her worried family, who put out urgent pleas to local media, were baffled by the girl’s disappearance. An introvert and a homebody, Jane (whose real name Forbes is choosing not to reveal as she is still a minor) had showed no sign she was considering something drastic, her parents told investigators.

Thirty years ago today, Link embarked on one of his most beloved adventures yet – a quest that was made all the more remarkable for the fact that it took place on the monochrome-screened Game Boy. The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening hit Japanese stores on June 6th, 1993 (North America and Europe had to wait until August and December, respectively), following in the footsteps of Zelda: A Link to the Past on the SNES. The Game Boy title took many visual cues from its home console sibling, but was notable for some significant changes, too; it doesn't take place in Hyrule, for starters, and doesn't feature Zelda at all.

Nintendo has said it will no longer sell games in Russia through its online store as the Japanese giant winds down operations in the increasingly isolated country. The changes, which were announced and came into effect on Wednesday, follow Nintendo's suspension of product shipments to Russia in March 2022 after the invasion of Ukraine.

On Friday, the developers behind open source GameCube and Wii emulator Dolphin received a DMCA takedown notice from Nintendo blocking Dolphin's impending release on Steam. The development team launched a Steam page on March 28 and announced it on the Dolphin blog, writing: "We're pleased to finally tell the world of our experiment. This has been the product of many months of work, and we look forward to getting it into users' hands soon!"

In 2023, we should expect better from Nintendo

The video game goliath shut down its randomized "gacha pipe" micro-transaction system in October 2022, but the company is still facing flack.

Eiji Aonuma designed marionettes before overseeing Zelda, the wildly popular video game series. Its latest title, “Tears of the Kingdom,” has sold 10 million copies.

Tears of the Kingdom becomes the fastest-selling game in the Legend of Zelda franchise.

Tears of the Kingdom producer Eiji Aonuma and director Hidemaro Fujibayashi have shared that they are "interested" in a film adaptation of The Legend of Zelda, especially after the incredible success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie has jumped past $1 billion at the global box office and has become the 10th animated film to achieve that impressive milestone.

The setting sun dyes the sky a soft orange as Link glides through the air. Far beneath his dangling feet, Hyrule lies almost forgotten as my focus is fully set on the collection of islands scattered across the horizon. One in particular catches my eye - a small island adorned with a tower, which seems to hail from a lost civilization, and, lying at its feet, a pool of water. Carefully I manoeuvre Link above this pool and, when the time is right, send him diving down to the floating isle. Somehow, even high in the heavens, fish swim in the water.

The Mortuary Assistant is now available on Nintendo Switch. The smash-hit indie horror hit – which offers some genuinely unsettling moments in its 10ish hour run time over numerous playthroughs – doesn't seem to boast any Switch-specific features, but it does mark the first time the chilling creeper is available outside of Steam.

RIP blue blur fans, Sonic’s video game movie dominance was nice while it lasted
