Evidenced by how many sleepless nights Team Meat had to put in to patch the PC versions ofSuper Meat BoyandBinding of Isaac, occasionally, fixing an indie game can take nearly as long as making one.

Sorry, ‘New Pokemon Snap’ Nintendo and Nintendo adjacent studios, stop putting “New” at the front of every title you can. I know it’s easy, and cute! But “Pokemon Snap 2” or “Pokemon Snap Safari” would have worked too. Wait, did you forget that we’re getting aPokemon Snapsequel?I wouldn’t blame you, as it was announced all the way back in June of 2020: which was a blur as-is. It’s been half a year since we’ve gotten basically any info on the Bandai Namco -developed title, but now thanks to an official tweet from Nintendo of America, we’re inching ever-closer to the next generation of snapping....

Remember when it didn’t have folders? I’ve been a Vita owner since launch, and it’s funny to see it go from a relatively feature-free device to what it is today. Now with update 3.30 you can get a number of themes for your Vita, ranging fromUnchartedtoTearaway, along with some generic ones like “Crystal.” It’s a great way to spruce up your Vita, I just hope it gets more original games sooner than later....

There’s going to be a Narcos game next year

I’m feeling skeptical, but I hope I’m proven wrong I was late to the party forNarcos, but it’s probably my favorite Netflix show to date — it put such a damper on my sleep schedule. The mostly-Colombia-set crime drama captures real-world events surrounding the rise of Pablo Escobar, the Cali Cartel, and, with the upcoming fourth season, the Guadalajara Cartel. If you like actor Pedro Pascal (and you should),Narcosis highly recommended....
