First purchase from Woot. A much better N64 NSO controller than the official one in my opinion, and it works on Switch 2 out of the box; no firmware update required!

It's so over... "This will likely be the largest single layoff event in gaming history." Xbox list of studio closures has been allegedly leaked from an inside source according to George Broussard, original 3D Realms/Apogee founder. While he won't disclose them, he says on top of the closures, there will also be layoffs at the studios that survive the cut. "Xbox is going to be supremely unpopular for a very long time...like the meteor that took out the dinosaurs." Absolutely brutal, the crash is here boys.

you’ll get mad at me for saying this…but cloud gaming is so obviously more economically efficient than physical hardware I think it’s going to be the default soon. your home console / pc is idle 90%+ of the day. meanwhile, data centers targets what, 5%, maybe at worst 10% idle. every second a cloud gamer isn’t gaming, that hardware is being used for someone else, training, etc. I think there should be a new measurement, something like cost-per effective FLOP hour that takes into account the TCO + effective utilization. If a gamer spends $500 on a GPU, uses it for 3 years, but it’s only fully active ~5% of that period…the cost-per relative FLOP hour is crazy high! Meanwhile, a $50,000 datacenter GPU might have a *LOWER* cost-per FLOP hour just because the effective utilization is 90+%.
