I might buy this one since I got a toddler and the new assist mode changes are clutch. Otherwise I also don't want to fork over the Switch 2 tax Nintendo is doing here. The Zelda TOTK was literally a gps app as the selling point 😆

February marks the 10th anniversary of Stardew Valley. I had the great pleasure of speaking to ConcernedApe ahead of the occasion about the last ten years and his plans for the future. It's a nice long one, please enjoy:

Love this game, honestly got the itch to play it again this month.
Dispatch is without a doubt one of the best games of 2025, and best in class for it's genre. Note this was recorded prior to the censorship drama with Nintendo/Adhoc
so uh... maybe go buy it on Steam or PS5 instead of Switch 🙃

8bitdo arcade controller was on sale the other week but the switches are clicky and 50g force to activate which bothers my hands.
These new Kailh purple glede switches are much lighter at 30g. Not sure I like the shorter travel but let's see.

If gaming can survive shitty asset flips built in Unity it can certainly survive whatever slop investors think AI will generate in genie.
Gaming stocks are dropping today after Google's rollout of Project Genie, an AI tool that lets users create and explore virtual worlds for 60 seconds. This is the result of a market that does not understand how video games are made. Allow me to suggest that the Street read Blood, Sweat, and Pixels
