Nintendo has added a new batch of classic games to the Nintendo Switch Online service. Subscribers now have access to three additional Game Boy titles, including the beloved Super Mario Land, which has been conspicuously absent from the service up until now.
Notable for being the first Super Mario game not developed by series creator Shigeru Miyamoto, Super Mario Land follows the plumber as he journeys through the bizarre Sarasaland on a quest to rescue Princess Daisy from the alien invader...
Today, SteelSeries unveiled the next wireless headset in its Arctis Nova family, the Nova 5. Launching at $130, the new Arctis Nova 5 line is meant to bridge the gap between the entry-level Nova 1 and Nova 3 models and the high-end Nova 7 and Nova Pro headsets, offering the same great form factor and design as the rest of the line-up but with a mid-range suite of features.
To clear up any confusion if you're familiar with the Nova headset line: The Nova 5 is essentially replacing the Nova 4,...
Kirby Star Allies might be six years old, but Nintendo games have an annoying habit of staying expensive no matter how long in the tooth they get. That's why you might want to jump on the deal Walmart is currently running. The retailer is offering Kirby Star Allies for $30, half its $60 list price, and the lowest price Walmart has ever offered for the game.

Setting Kirby Star Allies apart from other games in the series is that the "allies" part is literal--while...
Sales on 4K Blu-rays can be hit or miss, but the current Amazon 4K Blu-ray sale is a winner. It includes movies from all over the spectrum but largely lands on being all killer and no filler. You can find a few classics, like Casablanca and The Wizard of Oz, newer favorites like Barbie, Megan, and Get Out, and a few all-timers, like E.T., Jurassic Park, and The Shining.
Oh, and Mask of the Phantasm, otherwise known as the best Batman movie.

Daredevil stars Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio were the first to appear in their roles in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, following the show's Netflix cancelation in 2018. And surprisingly, it might have stayed that way in Daredevil: Born Again, as Elden Henson and Deborah Ann Woll weren't originally planned to be featured. But after the show was reconceived last year, Henson and Woll agreed to reprise their roles as Matt's closest friends, Foggy Nelson and Karen Page.
"It was pretty...
The next Madden game will be announced this week, release in August, and include a $100 premium edition that gets players into the game a few days early. That's according to a leak from billbil-kun (via VGC), who has a solid track record for reporting on unannounced video game news.
The game will be announced on May 16, the report said, and that's the same day that the official countdown clock for EA Sports College Football expires. So EA may have two big football announcements to make that...
Sony might not be ready to bankroll a Bloodborne remaster for PS5, but who really needs it when you can make your own Yharnam adventures? Thanks to this affordable Figma action figure of the game's titular Hunter--which is on sale at Amazon for $86.30 (was $116)--you can tackle terrifying new bosses like your uninterested cat or hyperactive dog instead. Or you can figure out a great pose for this collectible, lock it in, and proudly display it. This figure tends to sell out fairly quickly,...
Later this month, Anya Taylor-Joy is following in Charlize Theron's footsteps as the lead character in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. The upcoming prequel to Mad Max: Fury Road is also Taylor-Joy's first leading role in an action film. But according to the actress, it was also a difficult experience that she hasn't entirely processed.
"I knew I was going to need the two years that it took for the movie to come out to deal with it," Taylor-Joy told The New York Times. "I've never been more alone...
Diablo 4 Season 4, Loot Reborn, is now live on all platforms, and it brings the biggest changes yet for Blizzard's ARPG across both the Eternal and seasonal realms. We've also gotten a very extensive set of patch notes for the update.
Unlike previous Diablo 4 seasons, which introduced new questlines and unique seasonal mechanics, Season 4 instead focuses on and retools core aspects of the game going forward. Gear in the demon-slaying ARPG has undergone a significant overhaul as a result.

The PS5 might be outselling its chief competitor, but it seems that its overall sales have slowed in recent months. In a recent financial report, Sony said that PS5 sales are down 29% year-over-year in the last fiscal quarter, and it further expects PS5 sales to decrease to 18 million for the fiscal year 2024.
Sony narrowly missed its revised PS5 sales target of 21 million units sold for fiscal year 2023, with 20.8 million units sold. Needless to say, this means that Sony expects PS5 sales to...

Dead By Daylight is nearing its eighth anniversary of asymmetric slashers and survivors, and Behaviour Interactive has big plans to celebrate the game's upcoming milestone. Behavior Interactive hosted a livestream today to lay out those plans, which include a standalone co-op project and a highly requested new mode.

But they were all of them deceived, for another set was made. Deep in the Danish plastic mines, Lego forged a master set, and into it, it poured all of its creativity and drive to dominate all toy aisles. One Lego set to rule them all. And now, the dark tower known as Barad-Dûr is available to preorder.
