Ever since the successful Halloween event, Pokemon GO events have been appearing on a more frequent basis. Over 2,500 McDonald’s will be impacted by the latest Pokemon GO event, which promises to give players the chance to catch even more Pokemon than usual thanks to the lure modules.

The wife, understandably upset, posted to Reddit asking for relationship advice. The discovery that one’s life partner spent the entirety of the couple’s $38,000 in savings was an obvious shock, and after combing through the account history it quickly became apparent that the husband had been splurging heavily on Twitch donations. While he was now the sole income earner, the wife had previously contributed to the aforementioned savings account before focusing on raising their 6-month-old daughte

These charges all stem from his arrest last year after he posted footage of himself playing Pokemon GO in the Church of All Saints on his blog, although The Russian Orthodox Church claims that the nature of the video is the reason Sokolovsky now faces jail in lieu of the act of actually playing Pokemon GO itself.

In a recent interview with IGN, Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime announced the company’s continued support for the 3DS platform. “We will certainly be announcing new titles for the 3DS platform, and we’ll do that continuously,” Fils-Aime began.

The Nintendo Switch has managed to ship over 2.74 million units in the two months it has been on sale, which is an impressive figure according to any measure. However, Nintendo CEO Tatsumi Kimishima has his eyes set on the bigger picture, stating that there are more unannounced Switch titles in the works that will boost the console’s sales even further.

The art shows a theme park named Bethesdaland and features several rides, each designed around a current Bethesda franchise.

South Korea’s ratings board for video games has outed the existence of the second Mega Man Legacy Collection. Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 will allegedly pick up where the previous collection left off, featuring Mega Man 7 through the most recent release of Mega Man 10.

Amazon has failed to deliver a number of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe pre-orders on-time, leaving Switch gamers angry and with little recourse.

Expect the PlayStation 5 to launch in 2018 according to an analyst with Macquarie Capital Securities named Damian Thong. He correctly predicted the release of both the PlayStation 4 Slim and the PlayStation 4 Pro in 2016. Thong’s assertion of a 2018 launch for the PlayStation 5 is worth considering further, at the very least. If Sony’s planning a hardware launch for late 2018, PlayStation 5 or otherwise, it’s unlikely that they’ll be talking about it anytime soon. Of course, maybe Sony doesn’t h

One of the biggest announcements Nintendo made in the early days of the Switch console reveal was the company’s intent to monetize its online network services. Previously, Nintendo had adopted an online-lite approach to internet-based services, offering gamers quirky interactions between each other but little in the way of a premium multiplayer and downloading service. Nintendo’s eShop profits are relatively small for a company as large as the games industry giant, but the magnitude of that disc
