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.
This week we’re talking about pre-owned video games and ask the question, do you buy new or do you buy used? Do you sell your games? We answer some listener comments and hit on a few hot topics:
Nintendo’s press coverage is on the move, currently they’ve demonstrated Wii Speak which will allow voice chat on your Nintendo Wii console. Although the Xbox 360 has had voice chat since its day one release, Nintendo is bringing it in a new unique way: community chat.
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!
