Jonathan Holmes and Shannon from Nintendo are back for another two-part Wii U demonstration. This time, they’re playingNew Super Mario Bros. U, and — I’ll admit it — the game looks considerably more fun than I expected it would. It’s that good ol’ Nintendo charm at work. In this first video, we’re given a look at the “flying squirrel transformation” (it’s not a suit!) and the new cooperative functionality which allows a second player to interact with enemies and drop blocks into the level using the Wii U’s GamePad....

Farmer Wants A Wifeseason 3 star Samantha Riehl is a classic reality TV villain who really doesn’t seem like she belongs on a farm, so it’s easy to assume that she didn’t go on the show for the right reasons. Sure, she’s a fan ofYellowstone, but that’s not really enough to make me envision her feeding chickens, mucking out stables and the like. In fact, it seems like this lifestyle would bore the glamorous influencer to tears....

Since launchingFortnitelast July, Epic Games has become a fairly reactive developer, staying in near constant communication with its audience while also working quickly on new updates or fixing bugs that occasionally crop up.

Releasing earlier this morning, Update 3.3.1 adds new content for bothFortniteBattle Royale and Save the World players....

A new free character giveaway has been leaked forGenshin Impact5.7, and while free characters are always welcome as they help increase the roster or improve Constellation levels, the selected character is feeling like a downgrade from the game’s previous reward, as it could have been much better. At the moment,the action RPG by HoYoverse is going through the contents of Version 5.6, an important patch that steps away from Natlan but updates the game with a new Archon Quest....

Since the game was released back in September 2020, a lot ofGenshin Impactplayers have tried taking shortcuts by using various cheats. These cheats can grant various unfair advantages, from granting God mode to having all the items in the game. However, cheats inGenshin Impactalways seem to fly under the radar even though the game has a very active community. The main reason behind this is probably the fact that there is not a lot of in-game interaction between players as the game is more focused on a single-player experience....

While the global automotive chip shortage that started in 2020 is finally easing up, the years-long battle isn’t over for automakers. As a result, General Motors signed an exclusive and first-of-its-kindsupply agreementwith GlobalFoundries (GF) and secured a direct supply of chips moving forward. GlobalFoundries, a microchip and semiconductor manufacturer, will expand its production capacity to create wafers specifically for General Motors and its key suppliers. So, instead of just promising more inventory, it’ll have an entire production line dedicated to the automaker....

Sound effects are an integral part of the video game experience. From the coin sound in thepopularSuper Mariogamesto the iconic noise ofPac-Mangobbling up Power Pellets, the sounds heard in games are often as memorable as the visuals seen on the screen. Recently, one content creator decided to use some of the iconic sound effects fromFortnitein an unusual way inCall of Duty: Warzone. While some players are waiting for the arrival ofCall of Duty: Vanguardlater this year, many players are continuing to dive intoWarzone....

Quick Links Final Fantasy 16is certainly a JRPG that puts much thought into its story, steering the series in a more mature direction than any of its predecessors. Such heightened drama is often matched by its intense combat, which puts protagonist Clive Rosfield in all sorts of danger. However, it is not just trying to save the day that sees Clive be engaged in dangerous fights. Optional content is also part of the package inFinal Fantasy 16, where players can further test their mastery over swordplay and magical abilities against more dangerous opponents....

I am not immune to theBattlefield 6hype. It’s easy to be skeptical of aBattlefieldgame these days, but it’s a lot harder to look at footage fromBattlefield 6and not think “Okay, that’s actually pretty cool.” Blowing a hole for cover with C4? Grabbing onto the back of a moving tank? It’s all full of the dynamism that makesBattlefieldspecial, and while I didn’t bother with watching Twitch streams for early beta access, I did eagerly download it ahead of thefirst beta weekend....

Warframe’slatest update,Koumei & the Five Fates, is here, and its centerpiece is the titular Koumei, the latest character added to the game. In the first days post-launch, though, the community isn’t quite sure what to make of Koumei. Some argue she’s too inconsistent, while others disagree. Outside of the new character, though,Koumei & the Five Fateshas brought tons of changes to the game, includinga major rework to companions. If you don’t know what to make of the chatter around Koumei, the best thing you can do is try a build of her out yourself....

She reportedly blew over 70K on toys, including American Girl dolls. Robyn has said she would rather spend the money she and Kody have to boost their quality of life, while her husband would rather save cash for a rainy day....

Are you not entertained? You may be asking yourself:Who the fuck is Robert Summa?And why is he saying he’s back? And why is he calling me a bitch? For those of you too young to remember a baby Dtoid, I’m the former editor-in-chief of this unholy place. Back when the Robot was merely a glimmer in Niero’s eye, I hopped aboard his back of circuits and steered Destructoid into a somewhat respectable game blog....
