Okay, thanks for knocking $100 off for a limited time Sony, but where’s the PS VR2 PC support you promised?

This arguably makes for a more stable experience for all users, but it needs to get PC support and, if you ask me, it needs it soon. It has been out in the wild for well over a year now, the game library still feels a bit stunted (although it is showing off new titles tomorrow), and, at least in some ways, sales are too because of it.

After Nintendo shut the doors on its Wii U and 3DS shops, we are just a couple months away from Microsoft doing the same thing for Xbox 360. As previously announced last summer, Xbox has a scheduled “change coming to the Xbox 360 experience,” which is a careful way of saying it will no longer operate the Xbox 360 Store on the console and the Xbox 360 Marketplace. This means Xbox will stop supporting the “ability to purchase new games, DLC, and other entertainment content” – don’t worry you’ll still be able to play all of the stuff you already own – come July…so it might be time to stock up. Best of all, Xbox is putting a massive selection of these older titles on sale from now through July 29 to help the cause. More details below.

Nintendo is taking it way back with its latest additions to the Switch Online game library, and I mean way back, like late ‘80s back. After seeing a slew of classic Mario titles land on the service for Mario 2024, followed by the previously unreleased in North America Wrecking Crew ’98, Nintendo is finally ready to bring the original Super Mario Game Boy experience to Switch Online members everywhere. Super Mario Land, alongside Baseball – a game so old, it’s just called Baseball – and Alleyway, are now live on Switch Online as part of Nintendo’s celebration of 35 years of Game Boy. Head below for more details.
