This week is plagued by the Mark of the Beast, but next week’s will be a giant landmark, too. No Gaming Flashback, but a lot of legal happenings in the past week.
The news includes:
- USB-C charging ports will be required by law in the EU for most portable tech from 2024
- NetherRealm’s next game won’t be revealed during Mortal Kombat anniversary events
- Cyberpunk 2077 sequel is why there’s only one expansion, says dev
- Nintendo has updated eShop rules on adult content, publisher says
Let us know what you think.
Dead Rising is being ported to the Nintendo Wii, only two years after the original title. In Japan, they’ve changed the name to Dead Rising: Zombies Sacrifice, perhaps to make it sound like a different game.
Nintendo’s new rules seem exceedingly strange when you consider Chaos;Head Noah apparently failed Steam’s standards and practices, but was immediately picked up for the Switch.
Steam has since reversed the decision, but still!
