I can't remember where we stand on that glacier white PlayStation 4 Pro. For it? Against it? Sony is bringing that console variant to Europe as part of a Destiny 2 bundle on September 6, along with a few jet black PS4 bundles and a limited-...   read

Nintendo is going to be pushing the New 2DS XL hard this week. In addition to Miitopia, Hey! Pikmin is also out for the entire 3DS family, which will likely spur some extra in-store sales when people see that there's "another portable"...   read

When Jet was bought out by Walmart last year we anticipated an end to its popular first-time-customer coupon and the site would slowly become a clone of what Walmart is offering on its site. Turns out we were wrong, and Jet has continued to...   read

While sitting around killing time with Kingsway (best thing ever go buy it) and staving off what I can only assume to be a deadly parasite after drinking so much delicious ocean water while on vacation, the doorbell rang. I answered in my t...   read

Few if any of us were surprised to see Nintendo follow up the NES Classic Edition with a miniature Super Nintendo, but how far up the console cycle will the company go, and how quickly? As much as I'd rather not even think about what comes ...   read

Just last month we reported on the dire situation of picking up a Nintendo Switch in Japan, and it hasn't gotten any better. If anything, the lines have gotten longer and the raffles have gotten more fierce. According to multiple sources ov...   read

Still have a pile of PlayStation 3 discs to play through, but ye old PS3 is no longer in working condition? We're all familiar with the $250~$300 you need for a PS4, but how cheap can you pick up a PS3 for these days? The answer is ninety-f...   read

Ha! "Standard," New 3DS. Remember the OG 3DS? Well eventually it got an XL variant, then a "New" upgrade that essentially amounts to what Sony and Microsoft did with the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X respectively (except this upgrade has a few exc...   read

It's right there in the headline, but yep, Logitech has agreed to pick up headset maker Astro Gaming. The acquisition is expected to close in "early August" for $85 million in cash, with Logitech "investing in an adjacent gaming market &mda...   read

Cyber Gadget has announced a keyboard accessory for the Nintendo Switch that will allow you to dock your Joy-Con. You might remember HORI announcing a Switch keyboard last month. Their version, however, won't have these nifty slots for...   read

Retro USB is a great little company. Specializing mainly in producing homebrew games and accessories for the Nintendo Entertainment System, they are also responsible for the Retro AVS; a simulated NES console using FPGA technology that has ...   read

I'm sure THQ director Reinhard Pollice is going to be thrown under the bus for this, but he recently mused on the state of the Nintendo Switch, and took a more wistful approach than some other studios. Speaking to Gamesindustry.biz, Pollice...   read

Did you know eBay has an anti-scalper policy? Probably not, because it can't really enforce it given how tenacious scalpers are. The SNES Mini has been up for pre-order in the UK, and it instantly sold out. Naturally desperate folks are tur...   read

In a few months time, Targets, Best Buys, Wal-Marts and GameStops around the country will transform into Thunderdomes for the launch of the SNES Classic. When it was announced this week, the jokes started to fly. The poor handling of the NE...   read

Nintendo has done it again. They announced a piece of hardware that broke the internet -- a follow-up for the NES Mini -- the SNES Mini. But this time a lot of prospective buyers are a little more fanatical about the whole affair thanks to ...   read

Destructoid's staff voted on the best Super Nintendo games ever a few weeks back in anticipation of the now-confirmed miniature SNES Classic. Things got a little heated.  Niero: "Dude, you voted for 31 games."Holmes: "I was drunk on po...   read

It truly is a shame. All those refurbished Xbox Ones without a home. They lie packed in giant warehouses stacked several pallets high. Unloved. Unwanted. But maybe, just maybe, for the right price... If you wouldn't mind picking up an Xbox ...   read

I'm sufficiently sold on the SNES Classic, both because I have an inherent love of the console (it's my all-time favorite) and because Nintendo did a surprisingly good job with its software picks. Actually getting one, though? I'm expecting...   read

It's starting to get difficult to keep track of every iteration in the Nintendo 3DS console line up. First, there was the original 3DS console from 2011. Then came the 3DS XL in 2012, which simply provided users with a larger variant of Nin...   read

Ah, system updates. The great flood of "miscellaneous fixes and improvements," that essentially boil down to "we fixed a security exploit." But not this time. No, Nintendo has a real live update for the Switch in the form of version 3.0. No...   read

Everything old is new again, thanks to 8bitdo's controller collection that looks and feels like authentic NES and SNES controllers. Not only do these controllers work wirelessly (though you can play via USB on supported devices), but they a...   read

I'm becoming a real RGB slut. I have RGB lighting in my keyboard, mouse, behind my TV, and even, I shit you not, in my toilets. I don't know what it is, but being able to see a rainbow or any color I want at any given moment just makes me h...   read

Headset and microphone solutions are so plentiful these days that it feels like I have a piece of hardware for everything. I use a Blue Snowball for conferencing, earbuds with a remote for running, a wireless mic for consoles, and a heavy d...   read
