Someone made a website called "Sued by Nintendo", which lists a history of all their legal actions taken throughout the years. Clicking each tile brings you to an article of said action. It dates back all the way to 1989.

Two #PS1 games, Aquanaut’s Holiday and Tail of the Sun, will be on #NintendoSwitch & #Steam as part of the "ARTDINK GAME LOG" preservation project. English language is not supported.

I'm not sure why these aren't also on #PS4/#PS5; it seems weird considering they were on #PlayStation originally.

The #NintendoDirect for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie premieres @ 9 AM EST, 5 minutes from now! — www.youtube.com/live/yqjMaKQ...

I loved the first one since I'm a big Mario fan, and already took a look at the leaks, so I'm hoping we see a lot of Yoshi in this one!

So, is modding an OG Switch surprisingly easy as modding a 3DS? Asking for a friend! 🤭

New release for Retrom, a personal cloud #game library manager and front-end, now on v0.7.43! The difference between Retrom and other #emulation front-ends is that it comes with a centralized server that owns all library files and associated metadata.

Reminder: Don't forget about the free GOG games through Prime Gaming!

I know the Epic Games Store gives out free games too, but I'd prefer them on a platform like GOG than EG tbh.

2 days ago, the second demo trailer for the #NDS version of #Pokémon Light Platinum got released!
